Way of Abraham

 

Way of Abraham (L-2971)

وَجَعَلَهَا كَلِمَةًۢ بَاقِيَةً فِى عَقِبِهِۦ لَعَلَّهُمْ يَرْجِعُونَ 28   بَلْ مَتَّعْتُ هَٰٓؤُلَآءِ وَءَابَآءَهُمْ حَتَّىٰ جَآءَهُمُ ٱلْحَقُّ وَرَسُولٌ مُّبِينٌ 29   وَلَمَّا جَآءَهُمُ ٱلْحَقُّ قَالُوا۟ هَٰذَا سِحْرٌ وَإِنَّا بِهِۦ كَٰفِرُونَ 30   وَقَالُوا۟ لَوْلَا نُزِّلَ هَٰذَا ٱلْقُرْءَانُ عَلَىٰ رَجُلٍ مِّنَ ٱلْقَرْيَتَيْنِ عَظِيمٍ 31

28.  Wa  ja-'alahaa  Kalimatam- baaqiyatan  fii  'aqibihii  la-'allahum  yarji-'uun. 29.  Bal  matta-'tu haaa-'ulaaa-'i  wa  ‘aabaaa-'ahum  hattaa  jaaa-'ahumul-Haqqu  wa Rasiilum-mubiin. 30.  Wa  lammaa  jaaa-'ahumul-Haqqu  qaaluu haazaa  sihrunw-wa  ‘innaa bihii  kaafiruun. 31.  Wa qaaluu  law-laa  nuzzila  haazal- Qur-‘aanu  'alaa  rajulim-minal  qaryatayni  'aziim.

28. And he made it an enduring word in his progeny, so that they may return. 29. I gave these and their forefathers some enjoyment, until the truth and a manifest messenger came to them. 30. But when the truth came to them, they said, “This is sorcery, and we refuse to believe in it.” 31. They also said, “If only this Quran was sent down to a man of importance from the two cities.”

The aim from using the word ja-‘alahaa by Abraham (Peace be upon him) is “Laa  ‘ilaaha  ‘illAllaah (There is none Worthy of worship but God).

It is commanded: Which Word of Monotheism; Abraham (Peace be upon him) said to his father and his folk during his life, that is to say, Laa  ‘ilaaha  ‘illAllaah {There is none Worthy of worship but Allaah (God)}, the same he made a Word remaining among his descendants. Now if you desire to stand-still on the Way of your Forefathers, then you must keep footing of your greatest Grandfather Abraham (Peace be upon him). And that is the same Way, which Muhammad; the last Messenger of God Almighty (ﷺ) describes you. He invites you to follow the Religion of your greatest Grandfather. In fact, the greed of the world has led the people astray. They observe their closest fathers and grandfathers, who; being entangled in worldly matters; forgot that Religion which was established by their Venerable Forefather Abraham (Peace be upon him). Now for reminding the same Religion, We have appointed Muhammad, Our last Messenger (ﷺ). He describes the people clearly that what is the Truth, but they consider their death in accepting the Truth, because their forefathers of recent past were deceived by the world; who misled these people. Now they say after hearing the recitation of Holy Qur’an: Why was this Qur`an not sent down upon a great man from one of the two cities?  https://youtu.be/Fb828F_6opc

Stupid Fight

 

Stupid Fight (L-2970)

قَٰلَ أَوَلَوْ جِئْتُكُم بِأَهْدَىٰ مِمَّا وَجَدتُّمْ عَلَيْهِ ءَابَآءَكُمْ قَالُوٓا۟ إِنَّا بِمَآ أُرْسِلْتُم بِهِۦ كَٰفِرُونَ 24  فَٱنتَقَمْنَا مِنْهُمْ فَٱنظُرْ كَيْفَ كَانَ عَٰقِبَةُ ٱلْمُكَذِّبِينَ 25  وَإِذْ قَالَ إِبْرَٰهِيمُ لِأَبِيهِ وَقَوْمِهِۦٓ إِنَّنِى بَرَآءٌ مِّمَّا تَعْبُدُونَ 26   إِلَّا ٱلَّذِى فَطَرَنِى فَإِنَّهُۥ سَيَهْدِينِ 27

24.  Qaala  ‘awa  law  ji'-tukum- bi- ‘ahdaa  mimmaa  wajattum  'alayhi  ‘aabaaa-'akum.  Qaaluuu  ‘innaa  bimaaa  ‘ursiltum  bihii kaafiruun. 25.  FantaqamNaa  minhum fanzur  kayfa  kaana  'aaqibatul- mukazzibiin.   (Part One-Half) (Section 2/8) 26.  Wa  ‘iz  qaala  ‘Ibraahiimu  li-‘abiihi  wa  qawmihiii  ‘innanii  baraaa 'um-mimmaa  ta-'buduun. 27. ‘Illal-lazii  fataranii  fa-‘innahuu  sa-yahdiin.

24. He would say, “Even if I bring you better guidance than what you found your parents following?” They would say, “We reject what you are sent with.” 25. So We wreaked vengeance upon them. Behold, then, what was the fate of those who deny. 26. When Abraham said to his father and his people, “I am innocent of what you worship. 27. Except for He who created me, for He will guide me.”

It is commanded: After hearing from the disbelievers, the Messenger of God Almighty (Peace be upon him) gave them clear and simple answer: If I guide you towards such Path which is better than that path which was established by your forefathers, will even then you follow the religion of your forefathers? It was the best suitable question, but those people gave answer with obstinacy: We do not at all agree to your sayings. There is no question of better or worse. It was very hardheartedness.

It is commanded: At last We caused them to taste Our hard torment which was consequence of their clear refusal. After that it is commanded: Any intelligent person can never stay at wrong path of his forefathers. Behold! Abraham (Peace be upon him) said to his father and entire people of his folk very clearly: I can never believe in your gods. I believe in the Creator; Who made me and showed me the Right Path.

Blind imitation

 

Blind imitation (L-2969)

أَمْ ءَاتَيْنَٰهُمْ كِتَٰبًا مِّن قَبْلِهِۦ فَهُم بِهِۦ مُسْتَمْسِكُونَ 21   بَلْ قَالُوٓا۟ إِنَّا وَجَدْنَآ ءَابَآءَنَا عَلَىٰٓ أُمَّةٍ وَإِنَّا عَلَىٰٓ ءَاثَٰرِهِم مُّهْتَدُونَ 22  وَكَذَٰلِكَ مَآ أَرْسَلْنَا مِن قَبْلِكَ فِى قَرْيَةٍ مِّن نَّذِيرٍ إِلَّا قَالَ مُتْرَفُوهَآ إِنَّا وَجَدْنَآ ءَابَآءَنَا عَلَىٰٓ أُمَّةٍ وَإِنَّا عَلَىٰٓ ءَاثَٰرِهِم مُّقْتَدُونَ 23

21.  ‘Am  ‘aatayNaahum Kitaabam-min  qablihii  fahum  bihii  mustamsikuun. 22.  Bal  qaaluuu  ‘innaa  wajadnaaa  aabaaa- 'anaa  'alaaa  ‘ummatinw-wa  ‘innaa  'alaaa  ‘aasaarihim  muhtaduun. 23.  Wa  kazaalika  maaa ‘arsalNaa  min- qablika  fii  qaryatim-min- Naziirin  ‘illaa  qaala  mutrafuuhaaa,  ‘innaa  wajadnaaa  ‘aabaaa-'anaa  'alaaa  ‘ummatinw-wa  ‘innaa  'alaaa  ‘aasaarihim- muqtaduun.

21. Or have We given them a book prior to this one, to which they adhere? 22. But they say, “We found our parents on a course, and we are guided in their footsteps.” 23. Likewise, We sent no Warner before you to any town, but the wealthy among them said, “We found our parents on a course, and we are following in their footsteps.”

It was commanded previously: These idolaters do not consider that ascribing plurality to God Almighty is a bad thing. When it is said to them: You are doing wrong, then they reply carelessly: You say that all works are done by the Will of God Almighty. Then it is obvious that our act of associating others with Him is also due to the Will of Allaah. If He willed, He had stopped us from Infidelity.

This is their misunderstanding. Occurrence of any happening is a separate thing and its happening according to one’s will is another matter. Accordingly, their such argument is entirely wrong. Now they must tell: Whether had We sent to them any such Scripture before it, in which they would have been commanded that they should have belief in a plurality of Allaah? Being confused; they say: Stop it! We found our fathers upon a religion, and we are in their footsteps, rightly guided.

But following the forefathers blindly is not the way of sense. Due to the same reason ancient people had put off the sayings of the Prophets (Peace be upon them) that “we do the same as our fathers did since long. They had established a religion and we followed its instructions.

It is manifest that this answer is only a false excuse, not a suitable reply. It means that they are nonsense.

Misunderstanding

 

Misunderstanding (L-2968)

وَجَعَلُوا۟ ٱلْمَلَٰٓئِكَةَ ٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ عِبَٰدُ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ إِنَٰثًا أَشَهِدُوا۟ خَلْقَهُمْ سَتُكْتَبُ شَهَٰدَتُهُمْ وَيُسْـَٔلُونَ 19  وَقَالُوا۟ لَوْ شَآءَ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنُ مَا عَبَدْنَٰهُم مَّا لَهُم بِذَٰلِكَ مِنْ عِلْمٍ إِنْ هُمْ إِلَّا يَخْرُصُونَ 20

19.  Wa ja-'alul-malaaa-'ikatal-laziina  hum  'ibaadur-Rahmaani  ‘inaasaa.  'A-shahiduu  khalqahum.  Satuktabu  shahaadatuhum  wa yus-'aluun. 20.  Wa  qaaluu  law  shaaa 'ar-Rahmaanu  maa  'abadnaahum.  Maa  lahum- bizaalika  min  'ilm.  ‘In  hum  illaa  yakhrusuun.

19. And they appoint the angels, who are servants to the Most Gracious, as females. Have they witnessed their creation? Their claim will be recorded, and they will be questioned. 20. And they say, “Had the Most Gracious willed, we would not have worshiped them.” But they have no knowledge of that; they are merely guessing.

Generally, knowing God Almighty remained always difficult for human beings as He was required to be known. Common people think mostly concerning apparent circumstances. If Prophets (Peace be upon them) of God Almighty had not guided them, they would have always been entangled in misunderstanding. The mankind observes that whether any individual become greatest in the world, even then he cannot live alone; without working mutually along with others, but he can become greater when others support him. This thought was born from the same that God Almighty too rules (God forbid) with the help of others. Even the Idolaters of Arab used to consider that God Almighty has children. Then their senses stumbled in such a way that they began to consider “daughters” to those supposed children. Holy Qur’an falsified this entire thought. Like this, they used to say concerning Angels (Peace be upon them) that those were women (female).

It is commanded: Why do you make up wrong stories? You don’t know about the Unseen, even then you have been coming to a stand-still on your thought and seek this evasion for your paganism that "it would be the will of Allaah that we should ascribe plurality to Him. If He had willed, He would have prevented us.“ Behold! These are words of ignorance. God Almighty is displeased from belief in His plurality. He has left the mankind in the world after giving him some power and said: Some of your desires will be fulfilled, but Our willingness is in that which Holy Qur’an describes.

Strange thinking

 

Strange thinking (L-2967)

وَجَعَلُوا۟ لَهُۥ مِنْ عِبَادِهِۦ جُزْءًا إِنَّ ٱلْإِنسَٰنَ لَكَفُورٌ مُّبِينٌ 15  أَمِ ٱتَّخَذَ مِمَّا يَخْلُقُ بَنَاتٍ وَأَصْفَىٰكُم بِٱلْبَنِينَ 16   وَإِذَا بُشِّرَ أَحَدُهُم بِمَا ضَرَبَ لِلرَّحْمَٰنِ مَثَلًا ظَلَّ وَجْهُهُۥ مُسْوَدًّا وَهُوَ كَظِيمٌ 17   أَوَمَن يُنَشَّؤُا۟ فِى ٱلْحِلْيَةِ وَهُوَ فِى ٱلْخِصَامِ غَيْرُ مُبِينٍ 18

15.  Wa  ja-'aluu  lahuu  min  'ibaadiHii  juz-'aa.  ‘Innal- ‘insaana  la kafuurum-mubiin. (Section 1/7) 16.  ‘Amittakhaza  mimmaa  yakhluqu banaatinw-wa  ‘asfaakum  bil-baniin.   17.  Wa  ‘izaa  bushshira  ‘ahaduhum  bimaa  zaraba  lir-Rahmaani  masalan- zalla  wajhuhuu  muswaddanw-wa huwa  kaziim. 18.  ‘Awa many-yunashsha-'u  fil-hilyati  wa  huwa fil-khisaami  gayru  mubeen.

15. Yet they turn one of His servants into a part of Him. Man is clearly ungrateful. 16. Or has He chosen for Himself daughters from what He creates, and favored you with sons? 17. Yet when one of them is given news of what he attributes to the Most Gracious, his face darkens, and he suppresses grief. 18. “Someone brought up to be beautiful, and unable to help in a fight?”

It is commanded: Condition of these people is strange. God Almighty bestowed many blessings to them. He created the earth and made roads on it for their moving from one place to the other, caused to rain from the sky by which He made the dry land green. It is proved from above statement that He can bring the dead back to life again. It would have been better for them if they had been grateful to Him on these blessings.

Contrary to it, they are arrogant in His Grace, appoint His children from some of His slaves, which is an open disloyalty. They did not think that the thing (daughters) which they dislike for themselves, like for God Almighty Who brought all of them to life. When one of them is given good tidings of that (daughter) which he attributes to the Most Merciful in comparison, his face becomes dark, and he suppresses grief. Why do they not understand that the creature, which is one brought up in ornaments, which may not explain and fight, how can she be admitted as daughter of her (including entire mankind’s) Creator, Who is the Knower, the Seer, the Owner and Almighty?
