upon its practitioner in the world – along with what is in store for him in the Hereafter – than tyranny and severing the ties of kinship.”

Commentary
Baghy, translated as tyranny, also means disobedience or rebellion against the rulers. Qat'at Ar-Rahm, on the other hand, means severing the ties of kinship.
These two crimes or sins, if committed by man, are so abhorrent to Allāh that, unless the man repents and renounces them, He would award the punishment for them in this world itself.
