Commentary of Surah Al-Hajj – Verse 53

"That He may make what the devil casts forth a trial [115] for those in whose hearts is a disease and whose hearts are hardened. And undoubtedly the oppressors and quarrelsome [116] to the end.."

[115] A Trial for the Spiritually Ill

The satanic insertion becomes a test for those with diseased or hardened hearts—such as hypocrites, deniers, or those seeking confusion.
Those with such internal corruption are easily misled, as their hearts are not open to divine truth.

[116] Condition of the Oppressors

Such people are described as quarrelsome and unjust—always opposing truth through arguments and rebellion.
Their reaction to the trial exposes their true nature, sealing their fate.

(22:53) (He does this) in order that He may make the evil caused by Satan a trial for those in whose hearts there is sickness (of hypocrisy), whose hearts are hard (and vitiated). Surely these wrong-doers have gone too far in their dissension.
