[25].Surah Al-Furqan [The Criterion]: Ayat 68-69



৬৮. এবং যারা আল্লাহর সাথে অন্য উপাস্যের এবাদত করে না, আল্লাহ যার হত্যা অবৈধ করেছেন, সঙ্গত কারণ ব্যতীত তাকে হত্যা করে না এবং ব্যভিচার করে না যারা একাজ করে, তারা শাস্তির সম্মুখীন হবে
৬৯. কেয়ামতের দিন তাদের শাস্তি দ্বিগুন হবে এবং তথায় লাঞ্ছিত অবস্থায় চিরকাল বসবাস করবে 
 
Ayat 68. And those who invoke not any other illah (god) along with Allah, nor kill such life as Allah has forbidden, except for just cause, nor commit illegal sexual intercourse and whoever does this shall receive the punishment.
Ayat 69. The torment will be doubled to him on the Day of Resurrection, and he will abide therein in disgrace;   

[Tafseer of Ayat] 68. Those who invoke not, with Allah, any other god, nor slay such life as Allah has made sacred except for just cause, nor commit fornication; - and any that does this (not only) meets punishment. Here three things are expressly condemned: (1) false worship, which is a crime against Allah; (2) the taking of life, which is a crime against our fellow creatures; and (3) fornication, which is a crime against our self-respect, against ourselves. Every crime is against Allah, His creatures, and ourselves, but some may be viewed more in relation to one than to another. The prohibition against taking life is qualified: "except for just cause": e.g., in judicial punishment for murder, or in self-preservation, which may include not only self-defense in the legal sense, but also the clearing out of pests, and the provision of meat under conditions of Halal: see n. 698 to 5:5. After this comes a long parenthesis, which ends with verse 71, of same Surah.
[Tafseer] of Ayat 69. (But) the Penalty on the Day of Judgment will be doubled to him, and he will dwell therein in ignominy,- The three crimes just mentioned are specially detestable and infamous, and as ignominy will be added to other punishments, the penalty will be double that of ordinary punishment.

Hazrat Ibn Masud (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah [SAWW](PBUH) said, "The first matter concerning which people will be judged on the Day of Resurrection will be the matter of blood.''
[Al-Bukhari Book 08, Chapter 76, Hadith # 540]. 

Lesson : as mentioned above in Surah Al-Furqan Ayat 68."nor kill such life as Allah has forbidden, except for just cause," In another Hadith, it has been stated that on the Day of Judgement, the first thing about which people will be questioned will be As-Salat (the five daily prayers). There is no contradiction in the two narrations. Among the duties of Allah, the first thing to be reckoned would be As-Salat; while among the mutual right of humans, the first thing to be decided would be murder. From this narration the value of human life becomes very significant.
