30. (Esteemed Prophet!) You will die, and they (too) will indeed die.*
* The difference between the two deaths is worth seeing. As the two slaves mentioned in verse 29 cannot be equal, similarly, it is said that the passing of the Holy Prophet (blessings and peace be upon him) and the death of others can never be alike; in reality, both are completely different. A slave owned by one master is safe and secure; in contrast, a slave shared by many masters is ruined. My Beloved Prophet! You are an exclusively chosen and highly esteemed servant of the Lord; you do not share your devotion and loyalty to Him with anyone else. In contrast, the disbelievers share their servitude, devotion and loyalty with many self-made gods. Therefore, death cannot subdue you, but it will make them fall prey to eternal damnation and extinction.
