Effects Of Sin

Effects of Sin It is clear by evidence that the calamities and hardships which are inflicted upon a person are merely because of his own deeds. The Qur'aan says: Whatever misfortune falls upon you is because of your own deeds. (42:30) Corruption has appeared on land and sea because of the deeds that men have earned. (30:41) As far as a man is concerned, his misfortunes are but the consequences of the things he has done. He must bear personal responsibility for them and not throw the blame on others. We read over and over again in the Qur'aan about the punishment which was inflicted upon disobedient people. It was disobedience and wrong-doing which had taken Shaytaan out from Jannah and casted him down to earth. It was the same disobedience and wrong-doing which had caused him to become accursed. It was disobedience and wrong-doing which caused the people to drown in flood in the time of Nooh alayhis salaam. It was disobedience and wrong-doing which caused the people of 'Aad to be enveloped in a violent wind that swept them to their deaths. It was the disobedience and wrong-doing of the people of Thamood which caused a blast to come over them. Disobedience and wrong-doing caused the cities of Loot alayhis salaam to be tossed up into the sky, turned over, and then hurled back to earth in a hail of stone. Disobedience and wrong-doing was the cause of the punishment in the form of fire from a canopy of clouds, which was rained down upon the people of Prophet Shu'ayb alayhis salaam. Disobedience and wrong-doing caused Pharaoh and his followers to drown. It was disobedience and wrong-doing which caused Banoo Israa'eel to become victims of a tribe of fierce warriors who destroyed their homes, violated their honour and caused them to be beset by one disaster after another.
