Introduction - Chapter (The Mount) - 52 (L-3123)

This is fifty second Chapter according to order of Holy Qur’an. It has two Sections, and was revealed during primary times of stay at Makkah. It has been described by drawing attention of the mankind towards the nice things created by Allaah Almighty that the people must imagine from the things of the universe concerning the Divine Power of their Creator, and believe that only He Alone is their God, and follow His Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him), and admit that Holy Qur’an is His last True Book.

O mankind! Understand it thoroughly that the disobedient will certainly be punished by Allaah Almighty. No one can prevent Him from it. Such torment will be on that Day when the heaven will heave with awful heaving, and the mountains will move away with awful movement like flakes of cotton. When that Day will come, then disbelievers of Allaah Almighty, His Messenger and His Qur’an will fall upon evil days. Those, who have been wasting their life in worldly amusements and tell lies of various sorts, will be pushed into the Fire of the Hell. And it will be said to them: This is the Fire to which you used to consider a lie. Speak now! Is it a magic or still you are unable to understand? Cry or be silent now, however you have to dwell in the same and it is punishment of your own wicked deeds.

On the other side, those people, who used to believe in Our Commandments and escape from wrong works due to fear of Our punishment, will be sitting in the Gardens comfortably on that Day and enjoying with the blessings of Allaah Almighty. He will save them from the Hell and say to them: Eat and drink! Eating and drinking here will neither cause indigestion and nor cause any bad results. This is retribution of such works which you used to do in the world. They will be reclining on ranged couches. And We shall wed them to fair ones with wide, lovely eyes. Their children also will meet to them on the condition that they too believed and did good works like them. Justice will be done with everyone on that Day. Every individual will receive whatever he earned during worldly life. Do good and have good! And there will go round, waiting on them men-servants of their own.

 The dwellers of Paradise will say to one another: We were afraid of our End that what would happen with us in the life after death, and we used to pray before Allaah Almighty for deliverance from the Fire. So He saved us. He is the Benign and the Merciful.

After that it has been commanded to the Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him): Recite before the people Commandments useful for them because these are true. Those who say that Our Commandments are magic, poetry or a wild guess, it is entirely wrong. It is the Word of Allaah Almighty. If they do not admit then they should wait for Our punishment which will pounce upon them in the Hereafter. Before that torment they will be punished in the world also. You must obey the Command of Allaah almighty with patience. He has been watching. Stand before Him early in the morning and evening, and remain busy in His worship and praise.

Worship your Lord

 

Worship your Lord (L-3122)

مَآ أُرِيدُ مِنْهُم مِّن رِّزْقٍ وَمَآ أُرِيدُ أَن يُطْعِمُونِ 57  إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ هُوَ ٱلرَّزَّاقُ ذُو ٱلْقُوَّةِ ٱلْمَتِينُ 58  فَإِنَّ لِلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا۟ ذَنُوبًا مِّثْلَ ذَنُوبِ أَصْحَٰبِهِمْ فَلَا يَسْتَعْجِلُونِ 59  فَوَيْلٌ لِّلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ مِن يَوْمِهِمُ ٱلَّذِى يُوعَدُونَ 60

57.  Maaa  ‘uriidu  minhum-mir-Rizqinw-wa  maaa  ‘uriidu  ‘any-yut-'imuun. 58.  InnAllaaha  Huwar-Razzaaqu  Zul-Quwwatil-Matiin. 59.  Fa-‘inna  lillaziina  zalamuu  zanuubam-misla  zanuubi  ‘as- haabihim falaa  yasta'-jiluun. 60.  Fa-waylul-lillaziina  kafaruu  miny- Yawmihimul-lazii  yuu-'aduun. (Section – 3/2)

57. I seek no livelihood from them, nor do I ask that they should feed Me. 58. Lo! Allah! He it is that gives livelihood, the Lord of unbreakable might. 59. And lo! For those who (now) do wrong there is an evil day like unto the evil day (which came for) their likes (of old); so let them not ask Me to hasten on (that day). 60. And woe unto those who disbelieve, from (that) their day which they are promised.

It is commanded: I do neither want any provision from My slaves, and nor do I desire that they must arrange to feed Me as you want from your slaves. You consider that devotion is it that your slave should earn something and give you everyday; so that your daily requirements may be fulfilled. I need nothing. I desire that they should obey My Commandments and adopt the Path in the world prescribed by Me. I shall fulfil their entire requirements because I have full Power and perfect Authority both.

The people, who do not believe in Me and follow own desires, are wrongdoers. For them is a portion of punishment like the portion of their predecessors, so they should not urge Me impatiently for punishing. The Day of Resurrection is near to come and the wrongdoers, who do not believe in Me, will be tormented properly. That Day certainly will come as they are promised. When that Hour will come, they will be helpless.

(Continued from the last)

And those who listen to you {O Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) attentively and it can be hoped from them that they will admit the Truth after hearing. Your causing such people to understand will be useful and it will benefit them – either they will believe or they will be fortunate enough to strengthen their belief if they have already believed. Their doubts will be over. Explain the aim of the life before them and say: Allaah Almighty has bestowed distinguished sense to two kinds of the creatures – the Jinn and the Mankind. They both have to abide by natural Laws and Established Orders prescribed by Allaah Almighty like other creatures. But because they have senses and intentions more than other creatures, so they must know their Creator by using their senses and obey His Commands with intention. If they did not do so, then as though; they did not use their senses and intentions properly and left these such both attributes useless.

We have bestowed to them sense and understanding for the purpose that they should draw as a conclusion correctly from general facts; and understand well that their Creator is Allaah Almighty, Who sent His Messengers (peace be upon them) for their guidance, from whom Muhammad (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) is the last one, and Qur’an is the last Book; in which Allaah Almighty has described clearly that they must live in the world according to its Commandments. It is called “the worship of Allaah”, that is to say, to walk on the path prescribed by Allaah with one's own will and authority, which is called “the Divine Way of Religion”.

It is the duty of the Jinn and the Mankind; and the only aim of creating them by giving them sense and intention, that they should follow the instructions of the Religion. If they used their senses and intentions only for worldly matters, and applied their intentions only in amusements, then they did not fulfill the actual object for which these attributes were given to them. After death; they will be asked harshly concerning it that where did they use their senses and intentions? Were these attributes given to you for dancing attendance upon “the Science” only and inventing new things by experiments, making machines, clutches and weapons of mass destruction for overcoming others, or discovering new means of luxurious things in the world?

Bear in mind that all such things are to destroy the Reason. You did nothing if you did not know God by your sense. After death when you will be present before Allaah Almighty, He will ask: Where did you use your sense? Will you reply at that time – we made rails by our senses, flew by air, invented Atom Bombs and controlled material powers? Then it will be said to you: We did not give you sense for these purposes, but to worship by knowing Us.

كَذَٰلِكَ مَآ أَتَى ٱلَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِهِم مِّن رَّسُولٍ إِلَّا قَالُوا۟ سَاحِرٌ أَوْ مَجْنُونٌ 52  أَتَوَاصَوْا۟ بِهِۦ بَلْ هُمْ قَوْمٌ طَاغُونَ 53  فَتَوَلَّ عَنْهُمْ فَمَآ أَنتَ بِمَلُومٍ 54  وَذَكِّرْ فَإِنَّ ٱلذِّكْرَىٰ تَنفَعُ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ 55  وَمَا خَلَقْتُ ٱلْجِنَّ وَٱلْإِنسَ إِلَّا لِيَعْبُدُونِ 56

52.  Kazaalika  maaa  ‘atal-laziina  min-  qablihim-mir-Rasuulin  ‘illaa  qaaluu  saahirun  ‘aw  majnuun. 53.  ‘A-tawaa-saw  bih.  Bal  hum  qawmun-  taaguun. 54.  Fatawalla  'anhum  fa-maaa  ‘anta  bi-maluum. 55.  Wa  zakkir  fa-‘innaz-Zikraa  tanfa-'ul-Mu'-miniin. 56.  Wa  maa  khalaqTul- Jinna  wal- ‘insa  ‘illaa  li-ya'-buduun.

52. Even so there came no messenger unto those before them but they said: A wizard or a madman! 53. Have they handed down (the saying) as an heirloom one unto another? Nay, but they are froward folk. 54. So withdraw from them (O Muhammad), for you are in no wise blameworthy, 55. And warn, for warning profits believers. 56. I created the jinn and humankind only that they might worship Me.

It is commanded: These people do neither listen to the Messenger of Allaah Almighty (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him), nor know Allaah Almighty by their senses after looking the Signs of His Divine Power; and nor pay attention towards Him according to the Commands of Holy Qur’an. The same condition was of those who passed away before them. Many of them were such people who used to evade by saying that he {the Prophet of Allaah Almighty (peace be upon him)} was a wizard or insane. It seems that such people say to one another at the time of their death: Be careful! Do never hear the talk of those who invite towards Allaah Almighty. Did they really suggest it to them? Of course, in wickedness and impudence; they are alike. As ancient people rebelled, like them these are rebellious too. However, O Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him): You have performed your duty. You are not to be blamed if they do not believe. Turn away from such people and pay attention to those who believe in Allaah Almighty and His Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him)

Open your eyes (L-3119)

وَٱلسَّمَآءَ بَنَيْنَٰهَا بِأَيْي۟دٍ وَإِنَّا لَمُوسِعُونَ 47  وَٱلْأَرْضَ فَرَشْنَٰهَا فَنِعْمَ ٱلْمَٰهِدُونَ 48  وَمِن كُلِّ شَىْءٍ خَلَقْنَا زَوْجَيْنِ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَذَكَّرُونَ 49  فَفِرُّوٓا۟ إِلَى ٱللَّهِ إِنِّى لَكُم مِّنْهُ نَذِيرٌ مُّبِينٌ 50  وَلَا تَجْعَلُوا۟ مَعَ ٱللَّهِ إِلَٰهًا ءَاخَرَ إِنِّى لَكُم مِّنْهُ نَذِيرٌ مُّبِينٌ 51

47.  Was-samaaa-'a  banayNaa- haa  bi-‘aydinw-wa  ‘Innaa  la-muusi-'uun. 48.  Wal-‘arza  farash-Naahaa  fani'-mal- maahiduun. 49.  Wa  min-  kulli  shay-'in  khalaqNaa  zawjayni  la-'allakum  tazakkaruun. 50.  Fa-firruuu  ‘ilAllaah.  ‘Innii  lakum-minhu  Naziirum-mubiin. 51.  Wa  laa  taj-'aluu  ma-'Allaahi  ‘ilaahan  ‘aakhar.  ‘Innii  lakum-minhu  Naziirum-mubiin.

47. We have built the heaven with might, and We it is Who make the vast extent (thereof). 48. And the earth have We laid out, how gracious is the Spreader (thereof)! 49. And all things We have created by pairs, that haply you may reflect. 50. Therefor flee unto Allah; lo! I am a plain warner unto you from him. 51. And set not any other god along with Allah; lo! I am a plain Warner unto you from Him.

It is commanded: You have seen Our Omnipotence that how did We destroy the disobedient and rebellious people. They could never think that Allaah Almighty has so much power which they are unable to guess. We destroyed every refractory folk by such a separate means of destruction which they could not conjecture. Guess concerning Our Divine Power from it that We created a great thing like the heavens (skies) by Our Power and Omnipotence, from which it appears that how much are We Powerful.

Moreover, We created the earth and spread it like a Bed. Consider from it that how excellent Preparer We are. In addition, We made everything also opposite to everything, for instance – hot and cold, high and low, tasteful and tasteless, he and she. Think yourselves, understand and take a lesson from it that while We are The Owner of everything; then all of mankind should run towards Us. Do neither disbelieve in Us and nor have faith that someone else can be equal of Us. The end of the both of them (deniers and idolaters) will be worst.

Other criminal nations (L-3118)

وَفِى عَادٍ إِذْ أَرْسَلْنَا عَلَيْهِمُ ٱلرِّيحَ ٱلْعَقِيمَ 41  مَا تَذَرُ مِن شَىْءٍ أَتَتْ عَلَيْهِ إِلَّا جَعَلَتْهُ كَٱلرَّمِيمِ 42  وَفِى ثَمُودَ إِذْ قِيلَ لَهُمْ تَمَتَّعُوا۟ حَتَّىٰ حِينٍ 43  فَعَتَوْا۟ عَنْ أَمْرِ رَبِّهِمْ فَأَخَذَتْهُمُ ٱلصَّٰعِقَةُ وَهُمْ يَنظُرُونَ 44  فَمَا ٱسْتَطَٰعُوا۟ مِن قِيَامٍ وَمَا كَانُوا۟ مُنتَصِرِينَ 45  وَقَوْمَ نُوحٍ مِّن قَبْلُ إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا۟ قَوْمًا فَٰسِقِينَ 46

41.  Wa  fii  'Aadin  ‘iz ‘arsalNaa  'alay-himur-Riihal-'aqiim. 42.  Maa  tazaru  min-  shay-'in  ‘atat  'alayhi  ‘illaa  ja-'alat-hu  karramiim. 43.  Wa  fii  Samuuda  ‘iz  qiila  lahum  tamatta-''uu  hattaa  hiin. 44.  Fa-'ataw  'an  ‘amri  Rabbihim  fa-‘akhazat-humus-saa-'iqatu  wa  hum  yanzuruun. 45.  Famas-tataa-'uu  min-  qiyaa-minw-wa  maa  kaanuu  muntasiriin. 46.  Wa  qawma  Nuuhim-min qabl.  ‘Innahum  kaanuu  qawman-  faasiqiin. (Section 2/1)

41. And in (the tribe of) A'ad (there is a portent) when we sent the fatal wind against them. 42. It spared naught that it reached, but made it (all) as dust. 43. And in (the tribe of) Thamud (there is a portent) when it was told them: Take your ease awhile. 44. But they rebelled against their Lord's decree, and so the thunderbolt overtook them even while they gazed; 45. And they were unable to rise up, nor could they help themselves. 46. And the folk of Noah aforetime. Lo! They were licentious folk.

It is commanded: Knowing Allaah Almighty is easy if we meditate in the Signs of His Divine Power. Those who were admonished but they did not believe in Allaah Almighty, their end was not good. The folk of Aad were very refractory. There is a lesson for the disobedient in that what happened with the people of Aad. We sent upon them winnowing winds due to their wicked deeds, in which there was nothing but destruction and ruin. The wind made everything like disintegrated ruins and all people of Aad were removed from the world. Like them, the consequence of the folk of Thamud was also very bad. They were informed: Do whatsoever you desire to do within three days. If you did not change yourselves, then you would be punished very severely.

Those unlucky people ignored the Command of Allaah Almighty and became more arrogant. So the thunderbolt seized them and all of them died without defending themselves, while they were looking on. Before them We destroyed the people of Noah (peace be upon him) also. They too gripped up their loins to disobey.
