Allah says, "O man! What has made you careless about your Lord, the Most Generous?" "O Son of Adam! What has deceived you from your Lord, the Most Generous - meaning the Most Great - so that you went forth disobeying Him, and you met Him with that which was unbefitting." This is similar to what has been reported in the Hadith, "Allah will say, on the Day of Judgment: "O Son of Adam! What has deceived you concerning Me? O Son of Adam? What was your purpose to the Messengers?" Al-Baghawi mentioned that Al-Kalbi and Muqatil said, "This Ayah was revealed about Al-Aswad bin Shariq who stuck the Prophet SAWS and he was not punished in retaliation. So Allah revealed, "What has made you careless about your Lord, the Most Generous."[Al-Baghawi 4:455] Then Allah said, "Who created you, fashioned you perfectly, and gave you due proportion." meaning, "What has deceived you concerning the Most Generous Lord?"
