And the first of them will tell to the latter: "Then You had superiority upon us, so you taste the punishment because of what you have been earning".
In Hell, parents will say to their children: "You have no superiority or advantage over us since you had not utilized your intelligence and bounties to understand the aim of life and to prepare Paradise in the fourth phase, so you have to taste whatever you had been earning". As Adhikr is codified today and technologies are vastly developed, the latter generation will have no excuse for not understanding Adhikr compared to the former generation. The Impartial Lord doesn't guide anyone to Paradise or Hell. So every individual is responsible for his destiny as explained in verses 2: 286 and 3: 185. Since everyone has made a covenant with Lord as explained in verses 7: 172-173, nobody can blame anyone for his astray. Even Satan will abstain from his responsibilities for straying people from the Straightpath as explained in verse 14: 22. See explanation 2: 105, 134; 10: 108, and 17: 13-15.
