Collective Takfir Of Today’s Bani Israel
As salaamu alaikum
إِذْ قَالَ ٱللَّهُ يَـٰعِيسَىٰٓ إِنِّى مُتَوَفِّيكَ وَرَافِعُكَ إِلَىَّ وَمُطَهِّرُكَ مِنَ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ وَجَاعِلُ ٱلَّذِينَ ٱتَّبَعُوكَ فَوْقَ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوٓا۟ إِلَىٰ يَوْمِ ٱلْقِيَـٰمَةِ ۖ ثُمَّ إِلَىَّ مَرْجِعُكُمْ فَأَحْكُمُ بَيْنَكُمْ فِيمَا كُنتُمْ فِيهِ تَخْتَلِفُونَ
فَأَمَّا ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ فَأُعَذِّبُهُمْ عَذَابًۭا شَدِيدًۭا فِى ٱلدُّنْيَا وَٱلْـَٔاخِرَةِ وَمَا لَهُم مِّن نَّـٰصِرِينَ
In 3:55–56, the term kafaru appears three times.
The first instance seems to refer to Bani Israel who rejected Prophet Isa after itmam al-hujjah. The third instance also appears to describe those upon whom itmam al-hujjah has been completed, and who are then subjected to punishment both in this world and the Hereafter.
My question is about the second instance of kafaru. According to Ghamidi sb, this refers to the Bani Israel of our times. Ghamidi sb also explain how Bani Israel of today are under dominance of Catholics. However, isn’t the verse suggesting that those from Bani Israel who are being punished today are all kafirs? Isn’t this collective takfir and how can we be sure that itmam hujjat took place for today’s Bani Israel who are being punished today? How should this second occurrence be properly understood in its context?
