Lesson
Malakuuti – this word has been derived from malak, which means “common sovereignty over entire things”. Malakuuti means
“management of every kind of creature according to its own nature and rule upon
them”.
Those people
were threatened in the previous verse; who deny the Revelations of Allah
Almighty, that they should not be deceived from their prosperity and success of
the world. Allah Almighty does not hasten in punishing. They should understand
and think that has the Holy Qur’an no
importance which ultimately; Allah Almighty has managed with merit to send in
the world? Nay! But it has very deep purpose i.e. that individual or nation
which is provided opportunity to acquire wealth and property, rank and grandeur
in the world; notwithstanding; they put the Commands of God Almighty behind
their back, their eyes should be opened by means of Holy Qur’an that they should not behave with boastfulness and should not
consider, “I have received everything, now; there is no need to hear the
Revelations of Qur’an”.
They have been
invited in this verse that they should meditate upon their condition. They should
think: Why does the Messenger of Allah Almighty (grace, glory, blessings and
peace be upon Him) show too much activity in delivering the Message of God
Almighty whereas they suffer painful difficulties, hard labor and cruelty? (Let
us flee to God) Their minds have no unsoundness.
It is
commanded that eventually; they should think the Prophet and Messenger of Allah
Almighty (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him), who has been living
with them since His birth; they know His habits very well. They accept that He (grace,
glory, blessings and peace be upon Him) is honest, intelligent, wise and pure
in all matters. They praise to His manners and give evidence that He is
indifferent and well-wisher of the public. There is no madness in Him and nor
is He unwise or stupid, but He proves that He is more wise, foresighted and circumspect
than all of them. Then, what is the reason of not listening to His Word, while neither
He desires to rule upon them, nor wishes to make them Own obedient or make His own
government. He does not say to anyone: Give Me everything which you have and
live as My slaves and servants.
