16:108
ذَٰلِكَ بِأَنَّهُمُ ٱسْتَحَبُّوا۟ ٱلْحَيَوٰةَ ٱلدُّنْيَا عَلَى ٱلْءَاخِرَةِ وَأَنَّ ٱللَّهَ لَا يَهْدِى ٱلْقَوْمَ ٱلْكَٰفِرِينَ
English - Hazrat Molavi Sher Ali ra
That is because they have preferred the present life to the Hereafter, and because Allah guides not the disbelieving people.
English - Five Volume Translation
[a]That is because they have preferred the present life to the Hereafter, and because Allah guides not the disbelieving people.[1908]
10:8; 87:17.
Commentary:
The verse purports to say that as the Quran is the revealed word of God and contains nothing but truth, dissatisfaction with its teaching can never be the cause of its rejection. It must be due to expediency, the consideration of worldly interests or mental perversion of the rejecter. But the disbeliever rejects it to his own cost.
