What is the meaning of Allah Almighty's saying: "But man wishes to continue in sin"?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
The interpretation of the noble verse "But man wishes to transgress before him" has three sayings:
1. To transgress the rest of his life, meaning he faces time by committing immorality. 2. Following whims and desires, so man does not retract from what he wants. 3. Man wishes to transgress before the Day of Resurrection.
And transgression is deviating from the truth, so it applies to everyone who deviates from the truth, whether by word or deed.
