The Bee
IN THE NAME OF GOD, THE MOST GRACIOUS, THE DISPENSER OF GRACE
[16:25]
Hence, on Resurrection Day they shall bear the full weight of their own burdens, as well as some of the burdens of those ignorant ones whom they have led astray: oh, how evil the load with which they shall be burdened!


* v.25 : The conjunction li prefixed to the verb yahmilū (“they shall carry”) has here obviously – as pointed out by Rāzī – the function of what the grammarians call a lām al-‘āqibah, indicating no more than a causal sequence (‘āqibah); it may be appropriately rendered by means of the conjunctive particle “and” or – as in this context – by the adverb “hence.”
* Lit., “those whom they are leading astray without knowledge” – i.e., without knowledge or understanding on the latters’ part (Zamakhsharī).
