Following The Parents Blindly: A Common Tragedy

31:21

وَإِذَا قِيلَ لَهُمُ ٱتَّبِعُواْ مَآ أَنزَلَ ٱللَّهُ قَالُواْ بَلۡ نَتَّبِعُ مَا وَجَدۡنَا عَلَيۡهِ ءَابَآءَنَآ‌ۚ أَوَلَوۡ ڪَانَ ٱلشَّيۡطَـٰنُ يَدۡعُوهُمۡ إِلَىٰ عَذَابِ ٱلسَّعِيرِ ٢١

When they are told, "Follow these revelations of ALLAH," they say, "No, we follow only what we found our parents doing." What if the devil is leading them to the agony of blazing Hell?

Proofs and revelations

31:21 proofs:

 

31:21 Part: “When they are told, "Follow these revelations of ALLAH,"" - is stamped with 14 Allah letters providing a direct reference to the revelations revealed to the messenger.

 

There are two parts to this verse - the first part is up to the word Allah. The second part is the response of the arrogant disbelievers who insist they are following their parents religion. The Most Merciful has cautioned them that the devil is leading them to the agony of Hell by rejecting the revelations of Allah, hence the Supreme proof of Allah’s Name through His letters to confirm the Truth of this warning.

 

Revealed: In each part, the GV of Allah letters is 167 and 233, revealing the precise difference of 66, the Glorified Name of Allah.

Revealed: In fact from the start of part 2, up to the word "the devil", Allah has precisely stamped the profound proof of 165 (the GV of Allah letters) on that word to let the disbelievers know that they are following the powerless temporary god in the devil rather than following the One, who created them, provided for them and will judge them on the Day of Resurrection.
