What are they waiting for except that the Last Hour should come upon them all of a sudden, while they perceive not?
Even though this verse addresses the whole of mankind, only the people of the Messenger Muhammad are reading it. The Arabic Quran-reading Fujjar, among them—including the hypocrites and their followers—do not live with the awareness that there will be an end to this world, and that on the Day of Judgment everyone will be reckoned based on the Recording Book fastened around everyone’s neck, as explained in verses 17: 13-14. So this verse asks: what are they waiting for except the coming of Antichrist and Jesus, which are two of the ten crucial signs of the Last Hour? The Fujjar who falsify Adhikr and Messenger Muhammad before the public falsely expect that they will gain benefit and victory by the second coming of Jesus. While it is told in verse 16: 89 that Adhikr—which explains everything—is Guidance, Mercy, and Glad Tidings for the Muslims who submit all to their Lord, the original disbelievers—the Fujjar—mentioned in verses 4: 150-151 claim undeservingly that they are the Muslims and are bound for Paradise. They not only believe but also teach in their religious institutions that other people belonging to the Messenger’s community—such as Jains, Buddhists, Jews, Christians, etc.—are kafirs and inmates of Hell. These Fujjar read in the Arabic Quran verse 6: 158, which says that upon the appearance of any of the ten crucial signs of Doomsday, no soul will benefit by belief at that time. But since they do not know the Message of that verse, they will accept Antichrist first as Prophet and later even as lord. By the second coming of Jesus, these worst people will be killed by other people of the Messenger Muhammad who will approve Islam and Jesus, and thus the command of verses 4: 90-91 and 33: 60-61 will be implemented. See explanation 9: 65-66; 25: 30; 41: 47; and 42: 27-28.
