Remedy of doubts

Chapter Hajj” – (The Pilgrimage) - 22

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

Bis-Millaahir-Rah-maanir-Rahiim.

(In the name of Allaah, the Beneficent, the Merciful)

يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلنَّاسُ إِن كُنتُمْ فِى رَيْبٍ مِّنَٱلْبَعْثِ فَإِنَّا خَلَقْنَٰكُم مِّن تُرَابٍ ثُمَّ مِن نُّطْفَةٍ ثُمَّ مِنْ عَلَقَةٍ ثُمَّ مِن مُّضْغَةٍ مُّخَلَّقَةٍ وَغَيْرِ مُخَلَّقَةٍ لِّنُبَيِّنَ لَكُمْ وَنُقِرُّ فِى ٱلْأَرْحَامِ مَا نَشَآءُ إِلَىٰٓ أَجَلٍ مُّسَمًّى ثُمَّ نُخْرِجُكُمْ طِفْلًا ثُمَّ لِتَبْلُغُوٓا۟ أَشُدَّكُمْوَمِنكُم مَّن يُتَوَفَّىٰ وَمِنكُم مَّن يُرَدُّ إِلَىٰٓ أَرْذَلِ ٱلْعُمُرِ لِكَيْلَا يَعْلَمَ مِنۢ بَعْدِ عِلْمٍ شَيْـًٔا وَتَرَى ٱلْأَرْضَ هَامِدَةً فَإِذَآ أَنزَلْنَا عَلَيْهَا ٱلْمَآءَ ٱهْتَزَّتْ وَرَبَتْ وَأَنۢبَتَتْ مِن كُلِّ زَوْجٍۭ بَهِيجٍ 5  

5a.  O mankind! if ye are in doubt concerning the Resurrection, then lo! We have created you from dust, then from a drop of seed, then from a clot, then from a little lump of flesh shapely and shapeless, that We may make (it) clear for you.
5a.  Yaaa-‘ayyuhan-naasu  ‘in  kuntum  fii  raybim-minal- Ba’-si  fa-‘inNaa  khalaqNaakum-min-  turaabin  summa  min-nutfatin  summa  min-‘alaqatin  summa  mim-muzgatim-mukhallaqa-tinw-wa  gayri  mu-khallaqatilli-Nubayyina  lakum.

Commentary

Ba’-si – (the Resurrection, a rising again, revival from the grave, the future state), the meanings of this word should impress on the mind thoroughly. Without having belief in it; a mankind cannot become a mankind.

Mukhallaqa-tin – (shapely a little lump of flesh), gayri  mu-khallaqatin – (shapeless a little lump of flesh), these both words are “the passive participle” from the word “takhliiq”, which has been derived from khalaqa. Khalaqa means “to create, to give shape, to form”.

The people, who deny the commandments of Allaah Almighty, have been involved in various misunderstandings. They do not have knowledge but consider that they know everything and understand the matters of own benefits very well. But in fact they understand nothing. The person who did not understand even Allaah Almighty and His Commandments, verily he did not understand the life and its aim. And without understanding these both things, knowing other things is useless and waste of time. The people of this nature are disciples of Satan who will cast them in the Hell along with himself.

It has been caused to know the people in this verse that as far as the human being will not believe in the life after death, he will not be able to become a real mankind. He should understand it that the birth of human being comes into being from the dust. From the collection of its different ingredients, a drop of seed is produced which is changed in the form of congealed blood. Then this blood becomes a little lump of flesh, which; in the beginning; has no any particular form. After that; gradually it comes in a proper form.

Allaah Almighty commands: Purpose of describing this all is that the mankind should know the Divine Power’s extent of Allaah Almighty. Entire ingredients of mankind’s body are acquired from the dust. And then by changing the circumstances of its collection, skeleton of human being is made ready at last. And these changing are according to established orders.

Absurd reasoning

Chapter Hajj” – (The Pilgrimage) - 22

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

Bis-Millaahir-Rah-maanir-Rahiim.

(In the name of Allaah, the Beneficent, the Merciful)

وَمِنَ ٱلنَّاسِ مَن يُجَٰدِلُ فِى ٱللَّهِ بِغَيْرِ عِلْمٍ وَيَتَّبِعُ كُلَّ شَيْطَٰنٍ مَّرِيدٍ 3  

كُتِبَ عَلَيْهِ أَنَّهُۥ مَن تَوَلَّاهُ فَأَنَّهُۥ يُضِلُّهُۥ وَيَهْدِيهِ إِلَىٰ عَذَابِ ٱلسَّعِيرِ 4  

3.  And among mankind is he who disputeth concerning Allah without knowledge, and followeth each froward devil-

4.  For him it is decreed that whoso taketh him for friend, he verily will mislead him and will guide him to the punishment of the Flame.
3.  Wa  minan-naasi  many-yujaadilu  Fillaahi  bi-gayri-‘ilminw-wa  yattabi-‘u  kulla  shay-taanim-mariid.

4.  Kutiba  ‘alayhi  ‘annahuu  man-  tawallaahu  fa-‘annahuu  yuzilluhuu  wa  yahdiihi  ‘ilaa  ‘Azaabis-Sa-‘iir.

Commentary

Mariidin – (froward, refractory, perverse), this word is an adjective from marada, which means “disobedience”. This word has passed in Suratun-Nisaa’.

Tawallaa – (to become friend), it is past tense from the word tawallii, which has been derived from walii. Walii means “a friend, nearness, relationship”. Tawallaa means “to be near”. The word waliyyun has come out from the same.

Allaah Almighty commanded to his slaves for doing some works and forbade from doing some works. The mankind should believe in it that those works for which Allaah Almighty has commanded to do; are useful for the mankind in both worlds i.e. this world and the Hereafter. And from which works He has prevented, those are hurtful in favor of him in the both worlds.

It has been commanded in this verse that some people dispute in the Commandments of Allaah Almighty without knowledge, and by turning away from them, they follow the sayings of froward, refractory and perverse people. They do not know that they have been cursed by Allaah Almighty. And it is indisputable matter about them that the person who will obey their sayings and will choose them for friends, they will mislead him from the Right Path and guide him unto such Path which will bring him directly unto the Hell, where he will be burnt always. Verily some people are of such nature that they are unable to understand the Truth and go always astray. Such people are disciples of Satan. And they will ruin the person who will come into their hands.

(In the name of Allaah, the Beneficent, the Merciful)

يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلنَّاسُ ٱتَّقُوا۟ رَبَّكُمْ إِنَّ زَلْزَلَةَ ٱلسَّاعَةِ شَىْءٌ عَظِيمٌ 1

1.  O mankind! Fear your Lord. Lo! The earthquake of the Hour (of Doom) is a tremendous thing.

2.  On the Day when ye behold it, every nursing mother will forget her nursing and every pregnant one will be delivered of her burden, and thou (Muhammad) wilt see mankind as drunken, yet they will not be drunken, but the Doom of Allah will be strong (upon them).

Commentary

Tazhalu – (will forget, will be careless), origin of this word is za-ha-la. Zahuul means “to neglect, to be careless, to disregard”.

Murzi-‘atin – (Nursing mother), it is a feminine subject from the word ‘arzaa’, origin of which is ra-za-‘a. Raza-‘a means “to suckle, to nurse at the breast”. This word has passed in Chapter two.

Sukaaraa – (senseless, drunken), it is plural of sukraanun, which has been derived from the word sakara. Sakara means “to be intoxicated”. Sukraanun means “drunken, senseless due to intoxication”.

It is commanded: O people! Fear Allaah Almighty Who is your Lord. You live by His support. If He (Let us flee to Allaah) is displeased then you have no abode for living. Beware of unmindful sleep. Disobey not Allaah Almighty. Earthquake of the Day of Resurrection is very severe. Nursing mothers will forget suckling to their children and the pregnancies of pregnant women will be aborted. The condition of the mankind will be as the drunken people, but it will not be intoxication of any strong drink. Moreover the people will become senseless by looking the Doom of Allaah Almighty. Truly the Doom of Allaah Almighty is very severe. If only He preserve us then we are saved.

Introduction of Chapter 22 - Quran Chapter 22 – Intro (Pt-17, Stg-4) (L-2087) درس قرآن


Quran Chapter 22  Intro (Pt-17, Stg-4) (L-2087) درس قرآن

Introduction of Chapter 22

Chapter Hajj” – (The Pilgrimage) - 22

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

Bis-Millaahir-Rah-maanir-Rahiim.

(In the name of Allaah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.)

According to order, this is twenty second Chapter of Holy Qur’an. There are ten Sections in this Chapter. Instructions regarding “the Pilgrimage” have been mentioned in it, so its name is chosen “Suratul-Hajj”. Maximum part of this Chapter was revealed in Makkah and some part was revealed in Madinah. The part of Chapter, which was revealed in Madinah, is very important, so generally it is written as “the Madanii portion”.

Before this Chapter, in the last Section of Suratul-‘Ambiyaaa’, there was mention about the Day of Resurrection that this world will be destroyed and the entire human beings will be reproduced. The disbelievers will be punished due to their disbelief and ascribing plurality to Allaah Almighty, but the righteous people will be bestowed with comfort and pleasure.

In this Chapter, circumstances of the Day of Resurrection have been described in such fearful words that the hairs on end stand. It has been commanded to the mankind: They should never be in doubt concerning Allaah Almighty, otherwise their end will be worst. After that, proof of coming back to life again has been explained with strong reason. Punishment of the wicked deeds has been described as the Fire of the Hell, and glad tidings have been given to the righteous people. The mankind should not worship Allaah Almighty for worldly benefits but for winning His favor. The entire universe has been bowing before Allaah Almighty, but it is misfortune of some people that they are refractory.

Then there is mention about the construction of the Square Building at Makkah (The House of Allaah) by Prophet Abraham (peace be upon him), and the people have been excited to perform its Pilgrimage. After that, there is recitation of a Sacrifice (Qurbaanii). The Muslims have been permitted to fight their enemies due to their refractoriness. The mankind has been frightened that they should not have any doubt in the Message which Allaah Almighty has sent by means of His Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him). That is entirely True. Satan cannot interfere in It. Those people have been commended who departed from Makkah for the Cause of Allaah Almighty and it has been promised with them that they will be helped. The opponents of Islam have been caused to understand that in the religion, according to circumstances and times, particular ways of acquiring the Will of Allaah Almighty are determined. Therefore they should not quarrel about the ways which Holy Qur’an has fixed. Nowadays those commandments are suitable which have been mentioned in Holy Qur’an. All people will behold on the Day of Resurrection that only the commandments mentioned in Holy Qur’an were Right. At the end, helplessness of the idols has been proved by obvious argument that the mankind should know Allaah Almighty correctly, and try to obey His commandments. These are the teachings of Islam.

Review of Chapter 21 -3 - Quran Chapter 21 – Extract (Pt-17, Stg-4) (L-2086) درس قرآن


Quran Chapter 21  Extract (Pt-17, Stg-4) (L-2086) درس قرآن

Review of Chapter 21 -3

Chapter ’Ambiyaaa’” – (The Prophets) - 21

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

Bis-Millaahir-Rah-maanir-Rahiim.

(In the name of Allaah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.)

In this verse, the way of politics concerning the world has been explained before the People of Islam in a strange style. Therefore, first duty of the Muslims is to spread the correct style of politics and government in the world according to the instructions of Holy Qur’an, because till the time, the correct politics is not established; trying to guide the people unto those objects which are higher than it; is nearly useless. It is as “to keep the cart before the horse”.

Declaration of believing the Unity of Deity, abstinence from infidelity and belief in a plurality of God, having faith in the Messenger-hood, belief in the Day of Resurrection; reckoning of deeds and belief in reward and punishment, are the matters of arranging for the next life. And the best of it is that this world also is arranged in fact by these matters. But producing them before the people of the world cannot be useful according to requirement till the time; at first; an opportunity is not provided to them to observe that “worldly wellbeing of the mankind depends on believing in only these matters”. On this account, duty of preaching can be performed completely at the very time when first of all the Muslims will produce correct way of politics before the world and prove that really the Believers of these all matters are most capable of organizing the world correctly and establishing a peaceful life. If they did not do so, then its result would be that maximum people will ignore Islam instead of inclining unto it. Moreover, the enemies of Islam will use the political failure of Muslims as a weapon against Islam.

It appears from old historical incidents that the Muslims mistook here and stumbled as seriously that they fell down. They considered that purpose of Islam is to seize the people by military forces, whereas Sacred Book of Islam teaches them that Justice and Equity should be Central Fort of Islam and they should expose before the entire world that peace and safety can be established in the world by Justice only.

In Holy Qur’an, the word ‘Adl (Justice and Equity) has been manifested at various places by the words “Mizaan (A Balance), Mustaqiim (Right, Straight and Faithful) etc. And for proving its importance, it has been taken as equal of the Scripture. It has been commanded in Suratul-Hadiid (57: 25): “We verily sent Our messengers with clear proofs, and revealed with them the Scripture and the Balance, that mankind may observe right measure”. We, the Muslims, should think now that whether we established the Justice and Equity in the world or otherwise?

Quran Chapter 21  Brief (Pt-17, Stg-4) (L-2085) درس قرآن

Review of Chapter 21 -2

Chapter ’Ambiyaaa’” – (The Prophets) - 21

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

Bis-Millaahir-Rah-maanir-Rahiim.

(In the name of Allaah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.)

At the End, the Last Messenger of Allaah Almighty Muhammad (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) came in the world. He collected the teachings of the entire Prophets (peace be upon them) at one place and arranged for guidance of the human beings for ever. It has been described in this Chapter that all Prophets (peace be upon them) who came in the world for the guidance of the mankind during different times, are rings of the same one chain. All of them taught the mankind only one religion, summary of which is: All human beings are one nation and Allaah Almighty is The Lord (and God) of all. The entire mankind should unite for only His worship. But Alas! The people have been divided in different religions. On a Day, every one of them will be assembled in the Court of Allaah Almighty and they will be judged finally.  

In the end, way of living in the world has been taught to the mankind that We (Allaah Almighty) have proclaimed after revealing useful matters in the previous Scriptures that there is no expedient without it that the mankind should establish the rule of Justice and Equity in the world. And such government can be established by only those people who will be capable of it. If unworthy people will rule the empire, they will be removed like an erroneous alphabetical letter.

After understanding this Law, those people; who have embraced Islam; they should prove themselves able to rule on the world. Holy Qur’an has explained about those entire instructions, by which the ability of governing may be acquired for ever. That person should make himself able to rule according to those commandments; who desires. It is common mercy of Allaah Almighty upon the mankind that the authority has not been determined as inheritance for any particular group or tribe, but the people of every class have been invested with power that; if they desire, they can make themselves deserving of the supremacy of the Both Worlds. It is the Mercy, which has been announced at the last time by the Last Messenger Muhammad (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) through Holy Qur’an, which is the last Scripture. Therefore, he (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) is a Mercy for the entire world as it has been mentioned in Holt Qur’an: (21:107) And We have not sent you, [O Muhammad], except as a mercy to the worlds.

The person, who desires to reap advantage from this mercy, should follow him (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him). That individual or folk who will wish to establish any government without accepting the Principles of Qur’an, will fail very soon, and any other folk which has more capability than it; will overcome and establish own supremacy.

If the Muslims are arranged in accordance with the Way of Holy Qur’an, then at last the emperor will be of them. And if they did not correct themselves, then the world would be destroyed by suffering from the shocks produced by rebellious people, and the pious people would be rulers on the Last Day.

Quran Chapter 21  Summary (Pt-17, Stg-4) (L-2084) درس قرآن

Review of Chapter 21 -1

Chapter ’Ambiyaaa’” – (The Prophets) - 21

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

Bis-Millaahir-Rah-maanir-Rahiim.

(In the name of Allaah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.)

It has been caused to understand the mankind in this Chapter that “which is the correct way of dwelling in this world”. He should understand it first of all that he will be brought back to life again after death. The Day of Resurrection will be established, and whatsoever he did during his worldly life; will be examined exactly. He should listen to the sayings of the Prophets (peace be upon them) carefully. The Messengers and Prophets (peace be upon them) are also mankind like others, and they will teach by their words and deeds only that which suits to the human being. Many misfortunes have been fallen upon ancient nations because their people used to falsify and disobey the Prophets (peace be upon them). Human beings should meditate in their circumstances and should not adopt the habits as of them; otherwise there is full fear of being involved in difficulties.

First Message of the Prophets (peace be upon them) is that the Creator of this entire world, its Nourisher, its Lord and God is One Allaah. Worship Him only and obey His commandments! Entire forces and powers of the universe are His obedient whether those are Angels (peace be upon them), Jinn or mankind, all are under His Command. No one is able to be worthy of worship save Allaah Almighty. The human beings began to adore innate powers ignorantly by giving them different names. By setting up their imaginary forms, they fabricated their idols according to them. These entire matters are infidelity, belief in a plurality of God and going astray.

Messenger of Allaah Almighty Abraham (peace be upon him) gripped up his loins before this; for establishing the right path and broke the idols into pieces. Allaah Almighty saved him from his enemies and arranged to deliver him at the place of peace and safety, bestowed him honor in the world too and produced many Prophets (peace be upon them) from his descendants for the guidance of His slaves.

Before Abraham (peace be upon him), Messenger Noah (peace be upon him) performed the same duty. Then Prophet Lot (peace be upon him) was appointed for the guidance of a sinful folk. Prophets David, Solomon, Ishmael, Idris, Dhul-Kifl, Jonah, Zachariah and Jesus (peace be upon them) got ready to guide the human beings during their times. And they (peace be upon them) showed to the people examples of the worship of Allaah Almighty, patience and gratitude.
