Ongoing Submission Commanded

57:16

أَلَمۡ يَأۡنِ لِلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوٓاْ أَن تَخۡشَعَ قُلُوبُہُمۡ لِذِڪۡرِ ٱللهِ وَمَا نَزَلَ مِنَ ٱلۡحَقِّ وَلَا يَكُونُواْ كَٱلَّذِينَ أُوتُواْ ٱلۡكِتَـٰبَ مِن قَبۡلُ فَطَالَ عَلَيۡہِمُ ٱلۡأَمَدُ فَقَسَتۡ قُلُوبُہُمۡ‌ۖ وَكَثِيرٌ۬ مِّنۡہُمۡ فَـٰسِقُونَ ١٦

Is it not time for those who believed to open up their hearts for ALLAH’s message, and the truth that is revealed herein? They should not be like the followers of previous scriptures whose hearts became hardened with time and, consequently, many of them turned wicked.

Proofs and revelations

57:16 - The Proof:

 

Verse 16 is the 14th verse from the end of the chapter.

 

57:16 Part 1: Is it not time for those who believed to open up their hearts for ALLAH’s message, and the truth that is revealed herein?

57:16 Part 2: They should not be like the followers of previous scriptures whose hearts became hardened with time and, consequently, many of them turned wicked.

 

Revealed: The Aleef’s of Absoluteness are 8 and 9 in each part, revealing the diff. of 1.

Revealed: The Allah letters are 19 and 20 in each part, revealing the diff. of 1.

 

The verse teaches the believers to open up their hearts for subsequent messages of Allah and not to behave like the followers of previous scriptures who’s hearts became hardened with time and therefore they were considered wicked. The belief in Allah demands “ongoing submission” until death. Any proven message sent through His messenger has to be accepted by all the people to prove that they believe in Allah’s Absolute Authority and are submitters to Him.

Most of Them are Wicked Page 13
5:49 You shall rule among them in accordance with GOD’s revelations to you. Do not follow their wishes and beware lest they divert you from some of GOD’s revelations to you. If you turn away, then know that GOD wills to punish them for some of their sins. Indeed many people are wicked.7:102 We found that most of them disregard their covenant; we found most of them wicked.9:8 How can they (demand a pledge) when they never observed any rights of kinship between you and them nor any covenant, if they ever had a chance…
