Commentary
It has been
described in the previous verses that Islam is collection of the articles of
faith and deeds, and its aim is that the Belief should be made strong by
causing to accompany the above mentioned
both things. The articles of faith are a form of knowledge, therefore, in other
words, summary of Islam would be that knowledge and practice (both) should be
molded on the correct way, so that by means of them; the Belief may be tried to
make strong.
It is known
from above mentioned statement that “Soul of Islam is Belief”, and its body is
“correct knowledge and practice”. Portion of knowledge is called Tawhiid (Oneness of God), and portion of
practice is called Religion. For entering into Islam, verbal admission of Tawhiid, and intention of molding one’s
all deeds towards the religion Islam, is sufficient. If one have faith in Tawhiid (Unity); that is called Belief.
As much the Certainty will increase, so much the Belief will be strong.
It is
commanded: O Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him)! You
should not call any person beside Allah, because only that Individual should be
called Who may have power to profit or hurt, and it is useless to call such
person who does not have power of profiting and hurting. Calling Allah only;
makes the Tawhiid (believing the
Unity of the Deity) strong, and by it, the Belief becomes perfect.
There are
two separate portions of Tawhiid
(Oneness):
1. Adopting separation from all
fabricated gods of the people of the world; and asserting of loathing from
their worship.
2. When any mankind calls, he should
call Allah Almighty only; and bear in mind carefully that there is none beside
Allah Almighty; who may have power to profit or hurt to anyone. Then calling
others and asking them for help is useless because only Allah Almighty has
power of giving life and causing to die, profiting and hurting are also under
His jurisdiction. Therefore it is useless to see any other, leaving Him.
