“That is because they opposed Allah and His Messenger.”
And Allah Most High says:
“We will cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve because they have associated with Allah that for which He has sent down no authority. Their refuge will be the Fire, and wretched is the dwelling of the wrongdoers.”
