They reckoned that there would be no sedition, thus they acted blind and deaf, yet Lord Allah turned upon them; then again many among them acted as blind and deaf, and Allah is the Observant with whatever they are doing.
The Jews during Messenger's time had a false concept about the Lord. So they acted deaf, dumb, and blind towards Adhikr. Today the Arabic Quran reading Fujjar all over the world have become transgressors by hiding and rejecting Adhikr. These true Mushriks instead of trying to form the harmony of mankind are differentiated into different groups for following their whims as explained in 2: 113 and 3: 103. In verse 8: 22 the Fujjar are denoted as the worst creatures among thousand communities of Lord's creatures for being deaf and dumb towards Adhikr. By leading a mischievous lifestyle and rejecting Adhikr, they are hurrying for the emergence of the Antichrist. The Fujjar who accept Antichrist as a prophet and lord will be killed by the other people belonging to Messenger's community after the second coming of Jesus as explained in verses 4: 91 and 5: 33. At that time only these Fujjar will admit that not the Arabic Quran, but Adhikr/Dhikree was the Lord's Book as told in verse 38: 8.
The believer who testifies Adhikr as the Guidance, Mercy, and Herald can only die as a true Muslim who has submitted wholly to Lord as explained in verse 16: 89. They only will transform their Jinn soulmate mentioned in verses 43: 36-39 into a believer with Adhikr. Thus they can transfer their ledger from Sijjeen of Hell (83: 7) into Illiyeen of Paradise (83: 18). Since there is no group of believers anywhere in the world, the odd believer follows a lifestyle explained in verses 7: 205-206. See explanation 2: 18, 171; 5: 36, and 9: 28.
