سُوْرَةُ الْبَيِّنَةِ
Surah Al-Bayyina (98) — Ayah 6
إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ مِنْ أَهْلِ ٱلْكِتَـٰبِ وَٱلْمُشْرِكِينَ فِى نَارِ جَهَنَّمَ خَـٰلِدِينَ فِيهَآ ۚ أُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ هُمْ شَرُّ ٱلْبَرِيَّةِ ﴿6﴾
Translation by Dr. Muhammad Muhsin Khan & Dr. Taqi-ud-Din al-Hilali
Verily, those who disbelieve (in the religion of Islâm, the Qur’ân and Prophet Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) from among the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians) and Al-Mushrikûn will abide in the Fire of Hell. They are the worst of creatures.

Tafsir Taiseer ul-Quran — Maulana Abdul Rahman Kilani
Tafsir Taiseer ul-Quran (Facilitation of the Quran) is a comprehensive Quran commentary by Maulana Abdul Rahman Kilani, a renowned Salafi (Ahl al-Hadith) scholar from Pakistan. Known for his eloquent and accessible writing style, Kilani authored this tafsir with a focus on clarity — making Quranic meanings understandable to the common reader. The tafsir provides detailed historical context for verses related to battles and expeditions, and firmly refutes modernist ideologies using strong scriptural evidence. It is widely regarded as an invaluable resource for understanding the Quran and countering deviant interpretations. The tafsir is originally written in Urdu, translated to English by tohed.com.
6. Indeed, those among the People of the Book and the polytheists who disbelieved [8] will be in the Fire of Hell, abiding therein forever. They are the worst of all creatures.

The Levels of Disbelief:
There are many levels of disbelief, and each level differs in degree from the other. For example, outright denial of the existence of Allah is also disbelief, and deliberately abandoning prayer is also disbelief. Now, it is obvious that these two types of disbelief cannot be the same. The Jews had complete faith in Allah, His angels, His books, and even the Hereafter. Yet, they also claimed that they were Allah’s beloved and chosen people, and that the Fire would only touch them for a few days. So Allah described this belief of theirs as disbelief as well. Now, it is clear that their disbelief is of a lesser degree than the disbelief of the polytheists, who did not even believe in the resurrection of mankind. In this verse, all types of disbelief are intended.
