1.6 Allah's Anger
By worshipping other things than Allah people have ended up doing the most evil of all sins: idolatry which is worshipping anything other than Allah or worshipping other things besides Allah. People were thus subject to the anger of Allah Who cursed them because of their injustice. What injustice is worse than walking on Allah's earth, eating Allah's provision but worshipping other creatures instead of Him the Creator?
Therefore, disbelief in Allah or polytheism, as stated by Ibn Kathir, results in the loss of freedom, the destruction of the mind, and the absence of a noble target in life. By worshiping anything other than Allah, man becomes enslaved to Satan, who is himself a creature and becomes harnessed to his own baser qualities. Man becomes, then, among the worst of creation unto Allah (as mentioned in Sahih al Bukhari).
