Ala-Maududi
(39:32) Who, then, can be more unjust than he who lied against Allah and denied the Truth when it came to him, calling it a lie? Is there no room for such unbelievers in Hell?
There is no commentary by Abul Maududi available for this verse.
Ibn-Kathir
32. Then, who does more wrong than one who utters a lie against Allah, and denies the truth when it comes to him! Is there not in Hell an abode for the disbelievers 33. And he who has brought the truth and (those who) believed therein, they are those who have Taqwa. 34. They shall have all that they will desire with their Lord. That is the reward of the doers of good. 35. So that Allah may expiate from them the evil of what they did and give them the reward, according to the best of what they used to do.
The idolators uttered lies against Allah and said that there were other gods besides Him and claimed that the angels were the daughters of Allah and that Allah had a son — glorified be He far above all that they say. Moreover, they rejected the truth when it came to them on the lips of the Messengers (peace and blessings be upon them all). Allah says:
(Then, who does more wrong than one who utters a lie against Allah, and denies the truth when it comes to him!) meaning, there is no one who does more wrong than such a person, because he combines the two aspects of falsehood, disbelief in Allah and disbelief in the Messenger of Allah. They made false claims and rejected the truth, Allah threatened them:
(Is there not in Hell an abode for the disbelievers) who are the deniers and rejecters. Then Allah says:
(And he who has brought the truth and (those who) believed therein,) Mujahid, Qatadah, Ar-Rabi` bin Anas and Ibn Zayd said, “The one who brought the truth was the Messenger .” `Abdur-Rahman bin Zayd bin Aslam said:
(“And he who has brought the truth) means the Messenger of Allah .
(and (those who) believed therein) means the Muslims.”
(they are those who have Taqwa). Ibn `Abbas, may Allah be pleased with him, said, “They fear and shun Shirk.”
(They shall have all that they will desire with their Lord.) means, in Paradise; whatever they ask for they will have.
(That is the reward of doers of good. So that Allah may expiate from them the evil of what they did and give them the reward, according to the best of what they used to do.) This is like the Ayah:
(They are those from whom We shall accept the best of their deeds and overlook their evil deeds. (They shall be) among the dwellers of Paradise, a promise of truth, which they have been promised.) (46:16).
