Author: Safaa Abdel-Aziz  | Posted: 03-04-2008 | Comments: 0 | Views: 14 | Rating: (53)  (?) 
In the Noble Quran, Allah is asking mankind some important questions.
It seems compulsory for the serious one who is looking for the truth to have a look at those questions and if possible to answer them.
Allah' questions are many. In this series, these questions are chosen randomly.
---------------
Chapter 78 of the Noble Quran is Surah AN-NABA.
AN-NABA means the Tidings or the News.
The first question of verses 78:1-5 is: Whereof do they question one another? About what are the disbelievers questioning one another? About the great news which they are at variance, for the believers affirm it, while the disbelievers repudiate it.
The first message of verses 78:1-5 is: indeed, they shall know! Again, indeed, they shall know!
---------------
Verses 78:1-5 give the question of this article and talk about it
The meanings of the verses 78:1-5
Verse 78:1 says:
Whereof do they question one another? About what are the disbelievers questioning one another?
Verse 78:2 says:
About the awesome tidings,
About the Quran which is brought by the Prophet Muhammad and states the news of the Resurrection, the awful tidings for the disbelievers and the glad tidings for the believers!
Verse 78:3 says:
Whereof do they question one another? About the awesome tiding
Concerning which they are in disagreement, for the believers affirm it, while the disbelievers repudiate it. This is because whenever the Angel Gabriel brought down a section of the Quran to the Prophet and he recited it to them, they used to talk about it, and some of them would believe while others would persist in their disbelief.
Verse 78:4 says:
Nay, this is a reply to the disbelievers,
They will come to know upon the advent of death what will be done with them.
They will come to know, what will befall them for their rejection of it.
Verse 78:5 says:
Again, no indeed!
They will come to know in the grave what will be done with them. This is a threat from Allah to those who disbelieved in Muhammad and in the Quran.
Again is added here to declare that the second threat of chastisement, i.e. the Eternal punishment in the Hereafter, is more severe than the first.
