Commentary
Hayawaanu – (that, which is
living or has life), it aims that “the home of the Hereafter is such home in
which there is a real life”.
At the end of the last verse, it was commanded: Most of the people have no sense, otherwise
they could understand it easily that none lived in the world for ever. All of
human beings have to die one after another. So - ease and comfort, pain and
grief of this world are nothing. Therefore one should pay regard to Allaah Almighty, have belief in His
Promises and try to acquire ease and pleasure of the Day of Resurrection. The same
has been explained very clearly in this verse, so that those, who are careless,
may draw their attention towards the actual matter if they are unable to
understand themselves.
It is commanded:
Considering that the life of this world is “the fundamental object” is entirely
negligence. It is like a pastime and amusement
only, as you give some time to your children for playing. Then you instruct
them to spend their time in home works, which may be useful for them to arrange
for their future life. Like this, you also should understand it that you too
should be engaged in worldly matters as much as you like to keep your children spared
for games and amusements. If any child becomes sportive only, it is considered
that he is good-for-nothing.
Like this, worldly life is just like play and
game for all of you, for which only limited time should be spared according to
necessity. Actual life is the life of the Hereafter. Therefore, maximum time
should be spent for preparation of that life. And the preparation of that life
is “to abide by the Commands of Allaah
Almighty”.
