M. S. Sikder: Our duty during the month of holy "Ramadan'

We have hardened their hearts

"Bismillaheer Rahmaneer Raheem"

And as for those who disbelieve and reject Our Signs, they are the people of Hell. O you who believes! remember Allah’s favor upon you when a people intended to draw out their hands against you, but He withheld their hands from you; and fear Allah. And the believers should depend on Allah. And indeed Allah did take a covenant from the children of Israel; and We raised among them twelve leaders. And Allah said, ‘Surely, I am with you. If you perform Prayer firmly, and pay the Zakat, and believe in My Messengers and support them, and lend to Allah a best loan, I will remove your evils from you and admit you into Gardens beneath which streams flow. But whoso from among you disbelieves thereafter does indeed stray away from the right path.’ So, because of their breaking their covenant, We have cursed them, and have hardened their hearts. They pervert the words from their proper places and have forgotten a good part of that with which they were exhorted. And thou wilt not cease to discover treachery on their part, except in a few of them. So pardon them and turn away from them. Surely, Allah loves those who do good.-Al Qurna-5, (11 – 14)
