Allah says “… 'The punishment and wrath of your Lord has already fallen upon you…”. After reviewing most of the interpretations and knowing the difference between the two words: rijs ‘filth’ and rijz ‘punishment’, and after reviewing the verses in which these two words appear, I did not understand the reason of having the word ‘punishment’ instead of ‘filth’ in some verses. The word rijz ‘punishment’ means to punish as in the verse mentioned above. Does what falls from the Lord refer to revelation?
Answer
in the name of Allah, be advised, my son, rijs means filth, as Allah says “filth from Satan” filthy things are of four kind: filthy temper, filthy mind, religiously filthy, or all the three types as the dead body by all the three types. Filth here – from a religious perspective- is like alcohol and gambling acts. The verse “As for those whose hearts are diseased, they will be increased in filth added to their filth, so that they die as unbelievers” is mentioned about the infidels. Another verse “filth is put on the ones who do not understand” is mentioned under the same meaning. Filth here is interpreted as the evil smell and punishment. The verse that you have mentioned refers to the people of the prophet Hood (PBUH) whom Allah warned them of falling the punishment. Allah is the all Guide and Knowing.
