Extract from
Chapter ten
Surah YUUNUS - 10 (JONAH)
BisMillaahir-Rahmaanir-Rahiim
In the name of God, the
Beneficent, the Merciful
Lesson
Jonah (peace be upon Him) is a name of a
selected servant of God Almighty. The name of this Chapter is Surah Yuunus because in it, there is
mention of Prophet Jonah (peace be upon Him) and his nation. It is the
particularity of this nation that its people were frightened; as soon as they
saw the symptoms of the wrath of God Almighty, believed in Him immediately and
all of them supplicated by shedding tears for forgiveness, and prayed for
getting out God’s wrath of the way. So the wrath was withdrawn from them. Any
other nation did not do like this prior to them.
This Chapter was revealed in Makkah probably four years before Hijrah (the flight of the Messenger –
grace, blessings and peace be on Him; from Makkah
to Madinah on the 16th
July, 622 AD). So, like other Chapters; revealed in Makkah, in it also, the human beings have been commanded that they
should know the Creator and Organizer of all those things; which exist in this
universe, by observing the functions of every visible thing that there is only One
(God, The Most High), Who created this entire universe and only He is Who looks
after it. He is Who provides all necessary things which are necessary for the
life of every living being. The mankind himself has also been created by Him.
He granted more wisdom to the human being so that he may comprehend thoroughly
to his Creator and Lord after studying the universe and nature, and then spend
his entire virtues and powers to please Him.
For guidance of the human beings, Allah
Almighty has sent some people by appointing them His Messengers (peace be on
them) from time to time, so that they awake the people from the dream of
carelessness and instruct them: You have to be produced before your Lord and
Master after death and He will take an account of your entire deeds.
In the same Chapter, next to it, their
attention has been drawn by explaining the condition and behavior of the folks
of Noah, Moses, Aaron (Brother of Moses) and Jonah with the Prophets (peace be
upon them) that, you would have to learn also from the previous nations.
By means of extreme obvious and effective
commandments, this Surah describes
the way of living as an obedient of Divine Law and removing the insurrection of
human beings. When you will meditate into them, you will understand the way of
passing over the life in this world, and on the other hand, it becomes clear on
him that he is responsible of establishing a system, peace and safety in this
world. Then it shows that without obedience of Allah Almighty, any human being
can neither get freedom from the calamities and nor can fulfill his
responsibilities.
