Difference between the Believer & the one who turns away from Eemaan

Desertification

Shaykhul-Islaam Ibnul Qayyim al-Jawziyyah (Rahimahullaah) stated:

“Whoever believes in the messengers & obeys them, their enemies display enmity towards him & harm him. Therefore he (the believer) is tested by that which hurts him. If the person doesn’t believe in them & he doesn’t obey them, he is punished in the life of this world & in the hereafter. Therefore that which hurts him comes about. And that which hurts him is the greatest of pain & more lasting than the pain that befalls the followers of the Messengers. Therefore it is a must that that one goes through
hardship/pain whether you believe or turn away from Eemaan.  However (the difference is that) the believer experiences pain in the life of this world to start, then he will have a good ending in the life of this world & in the hereafter. As for the one who turned away from Eemaan, he will experience delight to start with then he will proceed on to the everlasting punishment.”

Taking from “Ad-Daw al-Muneer alaa at-Tafseer” 4/490.
