يَعْرِفُونَ نِعْمَتَ اللَّهِ ثُمَّ يُنكِرُونَهَا وَأَكْثَرُهُمُ الْكَافِرُونَ
They recognize the blessing of Allah and then deny it, and most of them are faithless.
Agha Ali Puya Commentary
Commentary on Quran 16:83
[Pooya/Ali Commentary 16:83] Ni-mat means bounty, favour, blessings. Imam Jafar bin Muhammad as Sadiq said: "The ni-mat of Allah was completed and perfected when the wilayah of Ali ibn abi Talib was confirmed at Ghadir Khum by the Holy Prophet by appointing him as the mawla (master) of the believers, just like him, to represent him in all affairs, after his departure from this world." If the commentary of Ma-idah: 5, 55 and 67 is studied carefully, it becomes clear and obvious that ni-mat, in this verse, refers to the Holy Prophet and his Ahl ul bayt; and "they deny it" refers to those who deprived them of their divine rights, harassed, persecuted and killed them.
