Allah Does not Love (14) the Farthest Who Trespass Beyond Bounds

The meanings of verses 7:54-56 of the Noble Quran:

Verse 7:54 says:

Lo! Your Lord is Allah Who created the heavens and the earth in six Days of the beginning of the life of this world, each day the equivalent of thousands of years, then,
He mounted the Throne; then He proceeded to create the Throne; it is also said that this means: He seated Himself on the Throne.
He coverts the night with the day and the day with the night, which is in haste to follow it i.e. the day is in haste to follow the night and the night is in haste to follow the day,
And He has made the sun and the moon and the stars subservient by His command by His leave.
His verily is all creation, the creation of the heavens and the earth and commandment.
He is the judge of people on the Day of Judgment
Blessed be Allah, the Possessor of grace;
It is also said that this means: elevated is Allah; as it is said that this means: far exalted is Allah, the Lord of all the Worlds! The Master and Disposer of the Worlds

Verse 7:55 says:

O mankind! Call upon your Lord humbly openly and in secret
O mankind! Call upon your Lord humbly in subservience, and quietly, in secret
It is also said that this means: call upon your Lord humbly and out of fear.
Lo! Allah does not love the aggressors in their supplications, by calling for that which is not permissible for them against the righteous.
He does not love the aggressors, the farthest who trespass beyond bounds; who are braggarts and loud-mouthed in their supplications.

Verse 7:56 says:

And work not corruption in the land, through sins and invitation to other than Allah and acts of disobedience, after it has been set right, as a result of the sending forth of messengers to it,
And worship Him and call upon Him in fear, of His punishment, and in hope, of His mercy and that you shall enter His Paradise.
Surely the mercy of God, the Paradise of Allah is near to the virtuous, the obedient and the believers who are good in their words and works.
