The End of the Mischievous

 

The End of the Mischievous (L-3068)

وَكَانَ ذَٰلِكَ عِندَ ٱللَّهِ فَوْزًا عَظِيمًا 5b  وَيُعَذِّبَ ٱلْمُنَٰفِقِينَ وَٱلْمُنَٰفِقَٰتِ وَٱلْمُشْرِكِينَ وَٱلْمُشْرِكَٰتِ ٱلظَّآنِّينَ بِٱللَّهِ ظَنَّ ٱلسَّوْءِ عَلَيْهِمْ دَآئِرَةُ ٱلسَّوْءِ وَغَضِبَ ٱللَّهُ عَلَيْهِمْ وَلَعَنَهُمْ وَأَعَدَّ لَهُمْ جَهَنَّمَ وَسَآءَتْ مَصِيرًا 6  وَلِلَّهِ جُنُودُ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ وَكَانَ ٱللَّهُ عَزِيزًا حَكِيمًا 7

5b.  Wa  kaana  zaalika  'indAllaahi  fawzan  'aziimaa. 6.  Wa  yu-'azzibal- Munaafiqiina  wal-Munaafiqaati  wal-Mushrikiina  wal-Mushrikaatiz-zaaan-niina  Billaahi  zannas- saw'.  'Alay-him  daaa-'iratus-saw'.  Wa  gazibAllaahu  'alay-him  wa  la-'anahum  wa  a-'adda  lahum  Jahannam.  Wa  saaa-‘at  masiiraa. 7.  Wa Lillaahi  Junuudus-samaawaati  wal-‘arz.  Wa  kaanAllaahu  'Aziizan  Hakiima.

5b.  That, in the sight of Allah, is the supreme triumph - 6. And may punish the hypocritical men and the hypocritical women, and the idolatrous men and the idolatrous women, who think an evil thought concerning Allah. For them is the evil turn of fortune, and Allah is wroth against them and has cursed them, and has made ready for them hell, a hapless journey's end. 7. Allah's are the hosts of the heavens and the earth, and Allah is ever Mighty, Wise.

It was commanded: We bestow courage for doing good works and power of bearing difficulties to Our righteous slaves, so that We make room for them in Paradise as a reward.

It is commanded: Getting place in Paradise is a great attainment and success of the mankind in the Sight of Allaah Almighty.

Then it is commanded: Punishing the apparent Muslims and the idolaters is also required by disclosing them and providing them opportunity of working as they desire. They are the people who presume concerning Allaah Almighty as of evil nature and are hopeless from His help. Accordingly, no hypocrite came out from Madinah for Umrah along with you, O Muhammad (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) except one. They (the hypocrites) thought: We must not go with the Muslims because the people of Makkah will seize and kill them.

On the other side, the idolaters of Makkah thought: Muslims have been coming on the name of performing Umrah (Pilgrimage), but they intend to take Makkah in their possession.

Both of them thought an evil thought concerning Allaah Almighty. The hypocrites of Madinah thought: He will not help the Muslims (Let us flee to God). However, if He helped, that help would be useless before so much great group (Let us flee to God). The idolaters of Makkah considered that the Believers were deceivers.

It is commanded: For such people is a misfortune of evil nature. Allaah Almighty has become angry with them and has cursed them. They will go to Hell which is a worst place of dwelling. To Allaah Almighty belong the soldiers of the heavens and the earth. And ever is He Exalted in Might and Wise.

Grace of God

 

Grace of God (L-3067)

هُوَ ٱلَّذِىٓ أَنزَلَ ٱلسَّكِينَةَ فِى قُلُوبِ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ لِيَزْدَادُوٓا۟ إِيمَٰنًا مَّعَ إِيمَٰنِهِمْ وَلِلَّهِ جُنُودُ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ وَكَانَ ٱللَّهُ عَلِيمًا حَكِيمًا 4  لِّيُدْخِلَ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَٱلْمُؤْمِنَٰتِ جَنَّٰتٍ تَجْرِى مِن تَحْتِهَا ٱلْأَنْهَٰرُ خَٰلِدِينَ فِيهَا وَيُكَفِّرَ عَنْهُمْ سَيِّـَٔاتِهِمْ 5a

4.  Huwal-laziii  ‘anzalas-Sakiinata  fii  quluubil-Mu'-miniina  liyazdaaduuu  ‘iimaanam-ma-'a  ‘iimaanihim.  Wa  Lillaahi  Junuudus-samaawaati  wal-‘arz.  Wa  kaanAllaahu  'Aliiman  Hakiimaa. 5a.  Liyud-khilal-Mmu'-miniina  wal-Mu'-minaati  Jannaatin  tajrii  min- tahtihal-‘anhaaru  khaalidiina  fiihaa  wa  yukaffira  'anhum  sayyi- ‘aatihim.

4. He it is Who sent down peace of reassurance into the hearts of the believers that they might add faith unto their faith. Allah's are the hosts of the heavens and the earth, and Allah is ever Knower, Wise - 5a. That He may bring the believing men and the believing women into Gardens underneath which rivers flow, wherein they will abide, and may remit from them their evil deeds -

There is no doubt in it that at the occasion of Hudaybiyyah, the Muslims paid right of their bravery and obedience on the decision of the Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him). Its example cannot be found in the history of the world. Controlling one’s passions before the Command of one’s Master, and understanding every matter sensibly, is not so much easy. First time, during taking a solemn oath in Bai’at ur Rizwan, the companions (May Allaah be pleased with them) proved their bravery which was beyond example. And then, they proved again their obedience before the Command of the Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) in the matter of Peace Treaty with the disbelievers, contrary to their will.

It is commanded: At all such occasions, Allaah Almighty produced satisfaction and tranquillity into the hearts of the Believers and their Belief was increased. After that, it is commanded: The Muslims should bow their heads before the Command of Allaah Almighty without arguing. Listen! If He will command you to fight, He can help you in every matter. Entire forces of the heavens and the earth are in the control of His Divine Power and He is Knower of everything and Aware of the advisability of every situation. It will be result of His obedience that He will give dwelling place eternally in the Gardens of Paradise to believing men and believing women; beneath which rivers flow, will accept their good deeds and forgive their misdeeds.

Good results of Truce (L-3066)

Chapter “FATAH” - (VICTORY) - 48

‘A-‘uu-zu  Billaahi minash-Shay-taanir- Rajiim.

 (I seek refuge in Allaah from Satan the outcast)
Bis-Millaahir-Rah-maanir-Rahiim.
(In the name of Allaah, the Beneficent, the Merciful)

إِنَّا فَتَحْنَا لَكَ فَتْحًا مُّبِينًا 1  لِّيَغْفِرَ لَكَ ٱللَّهُ مَا تَقَدَّمَ مِن ذَنۢبِكَ وَمَا تَأَخَّرَ وَيُتِمَّ نِعْمَتَهُۥ عَلَيْكَ وَيَهْدِيَكَ صِرَٰطًا مُّسْتَقِيمًا 2  وَيَنصُرَكَ ٱللَّهُ نَصْرًا عَزِيزًا 3

1.  ‘InNaa  fatahNaa  laka Fatham-Mubiinaa. 2.  Liyagfira  lakAllaahu  maa taqad-dama  min-  zambika  wa  maa  ta-‘akh-khara  wa  yutimma  ni'-matahuu  'alayka  wa  yahdi-yaka  Siraatam-Mustaqiima. 3.  Wa  yansurakAllaahu  Nasran  'Aziizaa.

1. Lo! We have given you (O Muhammad) a signal victory, 2. That Allah may forgive you of your sin that which is past and that which is to come, and may perfect His favour unto you, and may guide you on a right path, 3. And that Allah may help you with strong help -

Peace Treaty of Hudaybiyyah took place in strange environment. By observing the impudence of disbelievers and trying to press the Muslims in every way, the courageous Muslims were thinking to punish them severely and were ready to sacrifice their lives by fighting. They were utterly sick of oppressions by disbelievers. But the Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) showed patience, considered the “Peace” suitable, accepted every condition of the disbelievers that “Write your name only in the Peace Treaty and do not write Messenger of Allaah along with your name”. He (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) said: OK. They said: During the Peace Treaty of ten years, if anyone from us go to you; return him back, but we shall not return; if anyone from you comes to us. He (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) said: OK. They said: Go back to your home town at this time, perform Umrah during next year and bear in mind: None of you will have any weapon.

Apparently it seemed that the Muslims were pressed in the Peace Treaty. But Allaah Almighty described in this Chapter that the Peace Treaty was Muslims’ Great Victory. And in fact, with the passage of time, its advantages began to appear. It has been described in these verses: You worked with patience in the Peace Treaty. We forgave your entire errors and omissions as its reward. We shall complete Our favor upon you and guide you to a Straight Path, and We shall aid you with a Mighty Victory. Accordingly, the Promise was fulfilled. The people began to embrace Islam unhesitatingly and it spread all over the Arab. The hearts of the enemies were overawed. And the Muslims got victory in great battles easily; even there was none in Arabian Peninsula who might rebel.

Introduction - Chapter “FATAH” - (VICTORY) - 48

 

Introduction - Chapter “FATAH” - (VICTORY) - 48 (L-3065)

 In accordance with the order, this is forty eighth Chapter of Holy Qur’an, which was revealed during sixth year After Hijrah (AH) in Madinah, after “The Treaty of Hudaybiyyah”. It contains four Sections. There is indication towards some News in this Chapter. During 6^th Hijrah, Messenger of Allaah Almighty (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) saw in a dream that he along with his companions (May Allaah be pleased with them) entered Makkah and performed Umrah (Pilgrimage) satisfactorily. The people considered from it that they will perform Pilgrimage the same year. After observing their fondness, the Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) got ready too and set on for Umrah along with nearly one thousand and five hundred pilgrims and Hudii (the cattle of a sacrifice).

When the people of Makkah heard, they said: We shall not let them enter Makkah. They prepared an Army of riders and foot-soldiers for preventing them. The Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) along with pilgrims passed through narrow hill-passes for avoiding battle and reached Hudaybiyyah, which is situated near Makkah. They stayed there and sent a message to the people of Makkah that they had not come for fighting but to perform Umrah, for which there was no restriction. They were not responded, so then, Uthman (May Allaah be pleased with him) was sent. The People of Makkah kept him off and a rumor spread that he was killed.

When the Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) heard this, he took a solemn oath from the Muslims under a tree, “We shall fight wholeheartedly if there is a fight”. This is called “Bai’at ur Ridwan/Pledge of Rizwan. Qureish of Makkah feared after hearing this News and were at the service of the Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) for making a truce. He got ready and a Treaty was written on their conditions. The companions (May Allaah be pleased with them) of the Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) were not ready to be suppressed so much.

At last, it was decided: The Muslims should return this year and come again next year for performing Umrah, and there will be no fight among the both for next ten years.

Therefore, the sacrifice was offered in Hudaybiyyah, Determination (Ihram) was changed and they returned to Madinah. At that time, this Chapter was revealed, in which the Peace Treaty of Hudaybiyyah was said as “A Great Victory”. In the beginning of next year (7^th Hijrah), Township of Khyber of the Jews was conquered. In that battle, only those people participated along with the Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) who were with him at the time of the Peace Treaty of Hudaybiyyah. After that, in the month of Zi-Qa’d 7^th Hijrah they performed Umrah according to the conditions of the Treaty and returned to Madinah safe and sound.

After that, the Qureish of Makkah did against the Peace Treaty and during the month of Ramazan 8^th Hijrah, the Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) went to Makkah along with ten thousand Muslim soldiers and conquered Makkah. It has been described in this Chapter that the Peace Treaty of Hudaybiyyah was a great victory. Accordingly, interaction among the people increased due to stoppage of war, and many of the people began to embrace Islam by observing its excellences. Among them were Khalid bin Walid and Umar bin Aas also. The number of Muslims increased greatly within two years. In the same Chapter, the conquest of Khyber was predicted, those who took a solemn oath in Bai’at ur Rizwan, were applauded, the companions of the Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) were praised, and it has been promised with the Believers who do good works that they would be helped.

Lesson in this Chapter

 

Lesson in this Chapter (L-3064)

The people, who disbelieve in Allaah Almighty, their entire good works are useless though those are in abundance. They will not be able to reap any advantage from their good works on the Day of Resurrection. Moreover some of their works will become burden for them even in this world, for example, spending wealth and sacrificing oneself for preventing the people from Islam, although they consider it good works, but in future it will become cause of their destruction.

However, those who will do good works after having belief in Allaah Almighty and determine Holy Qur’an as their Guide Book after admitting that it is True, their world and the Hereafter (both) will become good, their errors will be forgiven and they will be happy. O Muslims! If the disbelievers do not refrain from their wicked deeds and there is no way but to fight, then you must fight bravely and courageously against them continually who spread persecution, until they are finished. Show not your favor for them, because removing the persecutors and mischief from the world is compulsory for establishing peace and order. When they are defeated and the war is over, then arrest the mischievous. Release them in case if there is advisability in releasing them, otherwise take some ransom from them.

Allaah Almighty could destroy the mischievous people by any other way but He desired to examine His slaves. Therefore, He commanded them to fight so that those are bestowed with rewards who are steadfast, and retribution of their sacrifice must be given in the Hereafter who are slain in war. Listen! They will dwell in Paradise which is a place of pleasure, rest and peace. Their entire desires will be fulfilled. The disbelievers must take warning from the circumstances of ancient people who were more powerful than these, but due to punishment of their evil deeds, Allaah Almighty ruined them. While they were not saved, then how can these disbelievers be saved? They would have to confront defeat from those who believe in Allaah Almighty wholeheartedly. Their abode will be Hell on the Day of Resurrection.

There are some people among you who used to claim that they were true Muslims. But when it was commanded that they must fight their enemies, then they began to show their timidity for getting rid of war. Some are hypocrites among the Muslims who are slaves of their wishes and far away from the Straight Path. Their eyes will be opened on the Day of Judgment but then it will be useless. The Day of Reckoning is near to come, signs of which have begun to appear.

O Muslims! Hold fast the cord of “Tawhiid” (believing in the Unity of the Deity, Oneness of God), pray for forgiveness of yourselves and all believers, choose the Straight Path of Islam with true heart, obey the Commands of Allaah Almighty and the Sayings of His Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him), and pay the poor-due. If you will not establish Islam, Allaah Almighty will exchange you for some other folk, and they will not be the likes of you.

Spending wealth

 

Spending wealth (L-3063)

هَٰٓأَنتُمْ هَٰٓؤُلَآءِ تُدْعَوْنَ لِتُنفِقُوا۟ فِى سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ فَمِنكُم مَّن يَبْخَلُ وَمَن يَبْخَلْ فَإِنَّمَا يَبْخَلُ عَن نَّفْسِهِۦ وَٱللَّهُ ٱلْغَنِىُّ وَأَنتُمُ ٱلْفُقَرَآءُ وَإِن تَتَوَلَّوْا۟ يَسْتَبْدِلْ قَوْمًا غَيْرَكُمْ ثُمَّ لَا يَكُونُوٓا۟ أَمْثَٰلَكُم 38

38.  Haaa-‘antum  haaa-'ulaaa-'i  tud-'awna  li-tunfiquu  fii  SabiiLillaahi  faminkum-many-yabkhal.  Wa  many-yabkhal  fa-‘innamaa  yabkhalu  'an-nafsih.  Wallaahul- Ghaniyyu  wa  ‘antumul- Fuqaraaa'.  Wa  ‘in-  tatawallaw  yastabdil-qawman  gayrakum  summa  laa  yakuunuuu   ‘amsaalakum.   (Section 4/8)

38. Lo! You are those who are called to spend in the way of Allah, yet among you there are some who hoard. And as for him who hoards, he hoards only from his soul. And Allah is the Rich, and you are the poor. And if you turn away He will exchange you for some other folk, and they will not be the likes of you.

It was commanded in the previous verses: Allaah Almighty does not demand your wealth from you. He is not needy of your wealth. However, He desires to describe you what is better for you. Behold! Your betterment is in it that you must believe and do right. While you have believed in Allaah Almighty, you must obey His Commandments. He sent His Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) and by means of him He informed you concerning all such matters which you must have to do. As you are instructed to spend your wealth in the Way of Allaah Almighty, there is betterment for yourselves in it. He does not need your wealth. You must pay the poor-due from some portion of your wealth, which will be spent on necessitous people according to the guidance of Allaah Almighty. Some of you are such people who are stingy in this matter too.

Say to such ignorant! There is not only your personal benefit in it but the Religion and the world also will reap advantage. If you will be avaricious, you will harm yourselves. Your group will be scattered in the world, you will be deprived of reward in the life after death and in addition you would have to suffer punishment of disobedience on the Day of Resurrection. Allaah Almighty is the Free of need, while you are the needy. If you turn away from His Commandment, Allaah Almighty will replace you with another people; then they will not be the likes of you.
