A particle executing simple harmonic motion comes to rest at the extreme positions. Is the resultant force on the particle zero at these positions according to Newton’s first law.

No. At extreme positions in simple harmonic motion, the body experiences maximum force. Therefore, the resultant force on the particle at extreme position can never be zero.
