The revealed Truth (b)

Chapter Kahf (The Cave) – 18

‘A-‘uu-zu  Billaahi minash-Shay-taanir- Rajiim.
(I seek refuge in God from Satan the outcast)

Bis-Millaahir-Rah-maanir-Rahiim.
(In the name of God, the Beneficent, the Merciful)

After that, it is commanded: Put your such false thoughts off, otherwise these will destroy you entirely. O Our Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him)! Say to them! Come unto me. I cause to understand you the Truth. You are thinking wrong that “the people, who fear God Almighty, have been creating difficulties for themselves by countenancing not unto the world. How many buds have been opening in the world. New things are being invented gradually. New experiments are showing their consequences. We see that in fact the scientists succeeded to perfection. Many of those hindrances have been removed and are being removed day by day; which did exist in the path of worldly luxurious enjoyment. They have made the world a garden. Things of pleasure are abundant. Wealth has been overstocked. Facilities of meeting to one another are available. Goods of comfort are ready every time. You can do whatever you desire and go easily wherever you wish any time. They (who fear Allah Almighty) have been thick headed without any cause by giving up pleasures of such enjoyable life”.

Come and listen from Me (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) about them who will be the greatest losers after death. Behold! Those are the people who have been involved in the amusements of the world day and night, engaged in pleasantness of life, inclined to collect the wealth, are desirous of fame and pomp, are crazed of good food and well dress, are in a fit of lust frenzy, recreation, fun, rejoicing and amusement every time. Every individual desires that everything of the world should be in his possession. Other entire people should be his servants. If they work for him, they may take food; otherwise eat air”.

They think: Those entire are good works which are being done by us. Beauty of the world is due to us. We have been promoting education, inventing new things and providing different kinds of luxurious things.

Say to them O Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him): That will not be useful for you whatsoever you have been doing. When the Hour will come, you all will be finished. You will not be able to think about any precautionary measure and nor your any invented thing will be helpful.

Commentary

All matters have been caused to understand clearly in Holy Qur’an. After that, it is being asked from the mankind: Do the disbelievers of Allah Almighty consider even then that they will get their works corrected by means of His servants instead of Him, for example Jesus, Ezra, the Holy Spirit, Angels (peace be upon them), divinities or goddesses etc. or will they take refuge from them for saving themselves from the wrath of Allah Almighty on the Day of Resurrection? If even after explaining so much clearly about the Truth, they are puffed up that it is not necessary to believe in Allah Almighty, His Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) and Holy Qur-‘an, because by this (Belief); disturbance occurs in the relishes of the world; nothing will happen after death. Suppose! If something happens, these protectors of ours will save us, then they should bear in mind that these are their vain imaginations. After death, they will have business with God Almighty only. The people who do not believe in Allah Almighty, they will have no abode save the Hell; after death. They will be welcomed by the Wrath of Allah Almighty and entertained with burning charcoal of the Hell.

Commentary

It is mention about that Hour when, not only this wall (which was constructed under the supervision of Alexander) but everything of the world will be ruined, and the Trumpet will be blown. Human beings, fiery persons (genii), weak and strong (all of them) will be mixed up into one another, and like the surges of the sea, they will knock together their bodies, and in the condition of confusion, they will try to penetrate into one another. And in such circumstances they entire will be ruined.

After that the Trumpet will be blown again and by the Command of Allah Almighty, all of them will be gathered in the Field of Resurrection. At that time, exactly before the eyes of those people who used to disbelieve in Allah Almighty, the Hell will be disclosed. Those will be such people, eyes of whose hearts were hoodwinked in the world. They did not try to see the Signs of God’s Omnipotence. Their ears had become unable to hear the Words of Advice. On that Day they will find the Hell present before their faces.

Commentary

‘Istaa-‘uu and ‘istataa-‘uu are the same words. In the first word “ta” has been dropped. It is used in both kinds. In the Section before this, (both) words - tastii-‘u and tastatii-‘u were used as its aorist {(Gram) the name of certain tenses in the Greek verb expressing indefinite time}. It is a past tense from the word ‘isttitaa-‘atun, origin of which is “sata-‘a”. Sata-’a means “wheedling”. It aims “strength” also. By this meaning, it has become ‘istitaa-‘atun which means “to have power”.

Naqbun – (to pierce the wall, digging through the wall),

Dak-kaaa-’a – (to lay anything low), this word has been derived from dakkun, which means “to make a thing leveled by breaking it into pieces”. Dakkaaa-‘a means “the thing, which has been broken into pieces”.

According to own sense of Dhu’l-Qarneyn, as he constructed the wall between two mountains, after completion; it had become too much strong and firm that Gog and Magog were rendered helpless in breaking it. Due to its height, being flat and spot, neither there was anything to catch with hand and nor any place of standing firmly, and nor they were able to climb on the wall. When it was prepared, Alexander thanked God Almighty that He took from him a work of comforting to His slaves. Alexander thought: It is obvious that which great service for mankind I provided, it was His Grace and Generosity, otherwise; I am only a handful dust. I have nothing my own; but everything is bestowed by Him. He is my Lord Who gave me sense. It is apparent that certainly on a Day, the world shall be ruined and everything in it will be removed, and at that time; this wall too; which has been prepared with iron pieces, will be broken in small pieces. And I am sure that such Time will come because it is Promise of Lord.

95.  He said: That wherein my Lord hath established me is better (than your tribute). Do but help me with strength (of men), I will set between you and them a bank. 96.  Give me pieces of iron – till, when he had leveled up (the gap) between the cliffs, he said: Blow! – till, when he had made it a fire, he said: Bring me molten copper to pour thereon.

Commentary

Makkannii – (established me, gave me power), actually this word is makkananii. By contraction of the letter (one) “n” into another “n”, it has become “makkannii”. Makkana is a past tense from the word tamkiin, origin of which is “ma-ka-na”. makkannatun means “strength, power”. Tamkiin means “to strengthen”.

Radmun – (it aims “a thick bank and strong wall”).

Zubarun – {pieces (of iron), planks), it is plural of zubratun, which means “a wide and broad piece”.

Saawaa – {(he) leveled up (the gap)}, it is also past tense from the word musaawaatun, origin of which is “sa-wa-‘a”. sawaaa-‘un means “leveled, equal, abreast”. Musaawaat means “to match, to level, to adjust”.

Sadafayni – it is plural of sadafun which means “two things at equal height but having gap between them”.

‘Un-fukhuu – (Blow!), it is a word of command from “nafakhun”, nafakhun means “to set on fire, to blow”. Here it aims “to fan the fire strongly”.

During the third stage of the journey, Alexander constructed a wall at open place between the two high peaks of the mountain; heights of which were at the equal level. The wall was constructed by putting the sheets of iron upon one another and it reached the level of both mountain peaks. Wooden pieces were filled between the iron planks like bricks and then they set on fire and fanned the flames. When the iron became hot; then the molten copper was poured on the iron planks; which filled the gaps in between the iron pieces. Goods and labor were provided by the local people. Remaining work was performed by Dhu’l-Qarneyn.

Commentary

Saddayni – (hindrances, preventions, mountains), this word is plural of saddun, which means “to stop, stoppage and restriction”. Here it aims “a high mountain, in the centre of which; a path had been opened. So it seemed that those were two separate mountains. The tellers say that those mountains are at the extremely north side of Turkish Land. Origin of the word saddun is “sa-da-da”.

Ya’-juuja  wa  Ma’-juuja – (Gog and Magog), it is told about those both folks that those were two wild and barbarous folks, who used to dwell across the Turkish Border and belonged to the same race. Those people were physically very strong. They used to live on the other side of the mountains and plunder after approaching to this side through the central opened path (between the mountains).

Kharjun – (some portion from the wealth, separated for spending, is called kharjun). Most probably, the word “Kharch” has come out in Urdu language from the same. Here it aims “subscription, contribution etc.”

After travelling unto East and West, Dhu’l-Qarneyn continued his journey and reached the high mountain, which was situated at the northern border of Turkish country. Due to path in the centre of the mountain, it was considered that those were two separate mountains. The people, who had been dwelling there, were unable to understand the language. An interpreter explained that those people were requesting to close that path by setting a solid barrier between us and them (which was between the mountain), by which the Gog and Magog used to come suddenly and spoil their land, so that they may not come to this side by breaking that barrier. If you do it, it will be your great favor upon us.

Commentary

Khubran – it aims “the knowledge in detail, which contains entire (little or great) information”.

Kazaalika – it means “it happened in the East also as it happened in the West”.

It has been described in these verses: He got ready to journey after that and then; turned unto the East. At the end of his journey, here also he saw some such people who used to live like animals. They did neither have even huts for dwelling, nor any kind of equipment for safety from the sun-shine. They used to cover by chance their bodies half-dressed. Rays of sun used to fall upon their bodies without any hindrance.

In the East too, Dhu’l-Qarneyn helped these people as much as he could, and he taught them living like mankind by advice, admonition, wealth and strength etc.

It is commanded that these are the circumstances of good-natured Alexander, which are required to be known to common people, because for them; very useful advice comes out from it that to whom Allah Almighty has graced more than others in any matter; he should help the inferior people to him in all matters by admonition, wealth and power; which may be easy for him.

Any thing is not given to a person more than the other that he should use it only for himself. Allah Almighty commands: Although We know all circumstances concerning Dhu’l-Qarneyn but you have been informed about only those matters which are useful for you.

Commentary

It is commanded that he (Zulqarnain) said: Certainly I should choose the path that whosoever will do wrong, use force against others violently and oppress them with injustice, I should punish him in the world according to the determined Law of Allah Almighty. Then; when he will be present in the Court of Allah Almighty on the Day of Resurrection, He will check account of his entire deeds and will punish the wrongdoers as much severely that none can think about that punishment in the world.

However, the person who will go on the Right Path, believe in Allah Almighty and do good works, reward for such person should be good in accordance with justice. When he will go unto Allah Almighty, He will please him and bestow everything abundant with His kindness. But in the world also he deserves good behavior from our side. We should treat such person with grace and mildness, and we should not trouble him unnecessarily, so that he may continue doing good works satisfactorily and benefit other people sympathetically.

We have to learn from this incident that the people, who are in power, should help the good people and keep the evil-doers pressed, so that the peace may be established in the world.
