ʾulāʾika lladhīna ṭabaʿa llāhu ʿalā qulūbihim wa-samʿihim wa-ʾabṣārihim wa-ʾulāʾika humu l-ghāfilūna
They are the ones Allah has set a seal on their hearts, their hearing and their sight, and it is they who are the heedless.
— Ali Quli Qarai
Surah An-Nahl – Verse 108
108. “They are those on whose hearts, and their ears and eyes Allah has set a seal, and these are the heedless ones.”
The rationale for not guiding them has been explained in this holy verse. It implies that they are the ones on whose hearts, ears and eyes Allah has set a seal in so far as they are deprived of seeing, hearing and understanding the truth. The verse says:
“They are those on whose hearts, and their ears and eyes Allah has set a seal…”
It is evident that such people, losing all of the tools for their cognition, are the true inconsiderate ones, because their offensive acts and kinds of sin have left some wrong and evil impacts on their sense of understanding which eventually leads them to be obstructed from grasping all facts. The holy verse concludes:
“…and these are the heedless ones.”
