Their enmity is not ordinary

 

Their enmity is not ordinary (L-3237)

تُسِرُّونَ إِلَيْهِم بِٱلْمَوَدَّةِ وَأَنَا۠ أَعْلَمُ بِمَآ أَخْفَيْتُمْ وَمَآ أَعْلَنتُمْ وَمَن يَفْعَلْهُ مِنكُمْ فَقَدْ ضَلَّ سَوَآءَ ٱلسَّبِيلِ 1b  إِن يَثْقَفُوكُمْ يَكُونُوا۟ لَكُمْ أَعْدَآءً وَيَبْسُطُوٓا۟ إِلَيْكُمْ أَيْدِيَهُمْ وَأَلْسِنَتَهُم بِٱلسُّوٓءِ وَوَدُّوا۟ لَوْ تَكْفُرُونَ 2  

1b.  tusirruuna  ‘ilayhim  bil-  mawaddati  wa  ‘ana  ‘a'-lamu  bimaaa  ‘akh-faytum  wa  maaa  ‘a'-lantum.  Wa  many-yaf-'alhu  minkum  faqad  zalla  Sawaaa-'as-Sabiil.

2.  ‘Iny-yas-qafuukum  yakuunuu  lakum  ‘a'-daaa-'anw-wa  yabsutuuu  ‘ilaykum  ‘ay-diyahum  wa  ‘al-sinata-hum  bissuuu-'i  wa  wadduu  law  takfuruun.

1b.  Do you show friendship unto them in secret, when I am Best Aware of what you hide and what you proclaim? And whosoever does it among you, he verily has strayed from the right way.

2. If they have the upper hand of you, they will be your foes, and will stretch out their hands and their tongues toward you with evil (intent), and they long for you to disbelieve.

It is commanded: You confide to them affection and consider that no one will know, whereas I am Most Knowing of what you have concealed and what you have declared. And whoever does it among you has; certainly strayed from the soundness of the way. Theirs is such condition that if suppose they gain dominance over you, they would be to you as enemies. Though when the enemy has accepted his defeat, then there must be no enmity or spite. And they extend against you their hands and their tongues with evil, and they wish you would disbelieve. They are in anger that why did you give up their old religion.

It is clearly obvious that the Muslims do not fight someone for the purpose of making the opposite; Muslims by force. They fight for establishing peace in the world and producing such environment, in which every individual must be independent for choosing the religion which one likes for oneself after meditating. And no one must compel any other for any particular religion. You cannot fight for spreading your religion.

Leaving friendship

 

Leaving friendship (L-3236)

Chapter MUMTAHINAH - (She that is to be examined) - 60

‘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)

يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ لَا تَتَّخِذُوا۟ عَدُوِّى وَعَدُوَّكُمْ أَوْلِيَآءَ تُلْقُونَ إِلَيْهِم بِٱلْمَوَدَّةِ وَقَدْ كَفَرُوا۟ بِمَا جَآءَكُم مِّنَ ٱلْحَقِّ يُخْرِجُونَ ٱلرَّسُولَ وَإِيَّاكُمْ أَن تُؤْمِنُوا۟ بِٱللَّهِ رَبِّكُمْ إِن كُنتُمْ خَرَجْتُمْ جِهَٰدًا فِى سَبِيلِى وَٱبْتِغَآءَ مَرْضَاتِى 1a

1a.  Yaa-‘ayyuhallaziina  ‘aamanuu  laa  tattakhizuu  'aduw-wii  wa  'aduw-wakum  ‘awli-yaaa-'a  tulquuna  ‘ilayhim  bil-mawaddati  wa qad  kafaruu  bi-maa  jaaa-'akum  minal-Haqq. Yukhri-juunar-Rasuula  wa  ‘iyyaakum  ‘an  tu'-minuu  Billaahi  Rabbi-kum.  ‘In  kuntum  kharajtum  Jihaadan-  fii  Sabiilii  Wabtigaaa-'a  Marzaatii;

1a. O you who believe! Choose not My enemy and your enemy for allies. Do you give them friendship when they disbelieve in that truth which has come unto you, driving out the messenger and you because you believe in Allah, your Lord? If you have come forth to strive in My way and seeking My good pleasure, (show them not friendship).

Messenger of Allaah Almighty (grace, glory, blessing and peace be upon him) conveyed the Message of Islam to the people of Makkah, but they rejected and became enemies. These people were of the tribe Qureish, and he (grace, glory, blessing and peace be upon him) belonged to highest family of the same tribe. They troubled the Messenger (grace, glory, blessing and peace be upon him) so much that he along with his companions (May Allaah be pleased with them), who embraced Islam, were compelled to leave Makkah.

After that the war began among (the believers and the disbelievers) both of them, which was over on the Peace Treaty of Hudaybiyyah. The people of Qureish broke the Treaty after two years and the war began again. He (grace, glory, blessing and peace be upon him) was desirous to escape from blood-shedding, and that the Muslims should reach suddenly and take Makkah in their possession. A man tried to inform the Qureish due to his personal advantages. His letter was caught, but the Messenger (grace, glory, blessing and peace be upon him) forgave him.

Concerning the same it has been instructed: It is not suitable for the Muslims to support the enemies when you are at war. The enemy is not only of yours enemy but he is enemy of Allaah Almighty too, and foundation of his enmity is Religion. They compelled you and the Messenger (grace, glory, blessing and peace be upon him) to leave their township because you had belief in Allaah Almighty.

It is commanded: Hence if you have come out for fighting in My Way and you desire My pleasure, then you must not take such people as allies during the period of war who are your enemies due to your Religion, because making the religion cause of war is mankind’s greatest crime. Therefore, you must not be their sympathizers until they come to Right Path.

Introduction of Chapter 60

 

Introduction of Chapter 60 (L-3235)

Chapter MUMTAHINAH - (She that is to be examined) - 60

This is sixtieth Chapter of Holy Qur’an according to order. It was sent down during eighth year AH in Madinah. This was the time when two years had passed after Peace Treaty of Hudaybiyyah between Muslims and the Infidels of Makkah. That Treaty was made during sixth year AH. For two years; both parties abode by terms of peace treaty correctly. According to the treaty, the infidel of Makkah who used to embrace Islam, Messenger of Allaah (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) used to return him to Makkah, but the Muslim who used to be a renegade from Islam and go to Makkah, was not returned by the Infidels. During those days, some women of Makkah embraced Islam and came to Madinah. Because there was no mention in the treaty concerning the women, and there was a great inconvenience in sending back the women. Therefore the Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) did not send them back. The Qureish of Makkah claimed that the women were included in the terms of the treaty, so they should be returned.

It is obvious that those women would have been tormented by the Infidels of Makkah, so the same dispute has been settled in the last part of this Chapter that “the woman who joins Muslims after having belief and leaving her home, she is then out from the nuptial of her disbelieving husband. Now the Muslim man, who will wed her, will pay that money as compensation to her first husband which he spent on her previous wife. Like this, if any Muslim woman adopts infidelity and joins the disbelievers, they will not send her back, but the man disbeliever who marries her; will pay so much money to her first believing husband as compensation which he spent on her. Muslims accepted this commandment most cordially, but the disbelievers denied from paying the money of compensation and disobeyed. But they gave up constancy for returning the women.

Two years of Peace Treaty passed satisfactorily. After two years, during eighth AH, infidels of Makkah broke the Peace Treaty openly. The Messenger (grace, glory, blessing and peace be upon him) said nothing, but ordered to get ready for assaulting upon Makkah secretly, and commanded: This news should not reach the people of Makkah, otherwise there would be war and we would have to shed blood in Sacred Place of Makkah. A Muslim, named Hatib bin Abi Balta’h (May Allaah be pleased with him) wrote a secret letter to the Qureish of Makkah for saving his wife and children; who had been living there so far and informed them: The Messenger (grace, glory, blessing and peace be upon him) is going to attack on Makkah along with a great Army, and certainly Allaah Almighty will help him. Do what you can; for your safety. This letter was given to a woman for delivering, who departed. The Messenger (grace, glory, blessing and peace be upon him) was informed by the Inspiration, who sent Ali and some other companions (May Allaah be pleased with them) behind her. They snatched the letter from the woman and returned. Hatib was interrogated, who requested: I am alone, so I thought; this way my family would be saved from the Infidels. And I am sure that however victory is of yours. He (grace, glory, blessing and peace be upon him) forgave his error.

Lessons in this Chapter to learn

 

Lessons in this Chapter to learn (L-3234)

Chapter HASHR - (EXILE) - 59

This Chapter explains that you must establish a society:

1.   This society must have such collective power, before which the wrongdoers should become helpless. No one should commit any such work which creates a disturbance and the people begin to quarrel with one another. If such society is established, its terror and fear will be so much that foreigners will be overawed by it and the enemies will lose all their wits, as the tribe of the Jews Banu Nazayer, who had a large group and were rich. But when the Muslims (who were very weak before them in all respects) came and assaulted collectively upon their forts, then they had no way to escape but to run away, because the Muslims had so much power of unity, before which they could not stay.

2.   Foundation of Muslims’ mutual relationship must be on sincerity and sympathy. They should never be hypocrites and disunited. Everyone should like for others which he likes for himself. No one should consider that he is superior to others. All people should support one another in all good matters.

3.   Messenger of Allaah Almighty (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) is Leader and Ruler of the Muslims. Every Muslim should get ready every time to abide by his Command and should never choose such a way which is forbidden. After him, it is first duty of the Muslims that they should appoint a Chieftain for themselves who follows the traditions of the Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him). Every member of the society must obey him and get ready every time for others’ welfare. That Chieftain should try to correct the circumstances of the entire Muslim Ummah by consulting wise people. He should appoint the skilled people at suitable places, and what is earned by the workers, he should make arrangement for their comfortable life. He should lessen own requirements and live along with all as they live.

4.   Works of the people will be correct then when they will have belief in Allaah Almighty, obey His Commandments and adopt the way explained by the Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him).

5.   Believe in the Day of Resurrection without which works of mankind cannot be correct. Understand it well! After death in the next life, good reward will be given to good people but the wrongdoers will be punished.

6.   The mankind can never get actual success without three things – Belief in Allaah Almighty, acting upon the traditions of His Messenger Muhammad (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) and having belief in the Day of Resurrection. Apparent pomp and show are only temporary things. A day will come when all of us will die and then we will have to be present before our Creator.

Chapter HASHR - (EXILE) - 59

This Chapter explains that the most important duty of the Muslims is to keep human society pure from all kinds of evils and wickedness. Admonish the mischievous people! If even then they do not refrain from depravity and break mutual agreements, then war is indispensable, even that the evil doers are suppressed. After having control over them, their wealth and property cannot be given in possession of rich people, but every needy person has a right in it. Therefore although its actual Owner is Allaah Almighty, but administratively it will be under the possession of His Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him). He will help his close relatives, the orphans, the poor and the wayfarers from its income. It should not be that those take its possession also who already have wealth more than enough and it is distributed among themselves, and those remain empty-handed by whose efforts and labor it was acquired.

The Muslims can correct their financial system by following these instructions. First of all; their rulers must be honest and trustworthy. They should understand that they have to do the same for supporting the nation which the Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) did. He never deposited money with himself. Whatever was received was shared with others, without saying that the poor were poor because Allaah desired to keep them in the same condition, so they must be patient on that which was given to them by anyone, and that Allaah gave wealth to the rich so he must enjoy.

This is not the way of the Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him). Therefore, it has no connection with Islam. Allaah Almighty made some people rich and some poor for examining the mankind, and everyone’s duty has been explained.

Now there is a need to observe that who accomplishes well his duty. It is responsibility of the nation that they should choose or accept for themselves such ruler, who must not only be to please the people by his conversation, but he should grip up his loins to fulfil requirements of every individual easily, and spend Country’s income on correcting the condition of common people. He himself should take from it only that which may fulfil easily his personal requirements.

 Present systems of Governments in the world claim that those are best, but major portion of Country’s income goes in the hands of such people who rule over the public, whereas most people of public are deprived of dire requirements of life. Potential rulers claim that they will do for public welfare, but when they become rulers then they like to fill up own pockets.

Attributes of God

 

Attributes of God (L-3232)

Chapter HASHR - (EXILE) – 59

هُوَ ٱللَّهُ ٱلَّذِى لَآ إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ ٱلْمَلِكُ ٱلْقُدُّوسُ ٱلسَّلَٰمُ ٱلْمُؤْمِنُ ٱلْمُهَيْمِنُ ٱلْعَزِيزُ ٱلْجَبَّارُ ٱلْمُتَكَبِّرُ سُبْحَٰنَ ٱللَّهِ عَمَّا يُشْرِكُونَ 23  هُوَ ٱللَّهُ ٱلْخَٰلِقُ ٱلْبَارِئُ ٱلْمُصَوِّرُ لَهُ ٱلْأَسْمَآءُ ٱلْحُسْنَىٰ يُسَبِّحُ لَهُۥ مَا فِى ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ وَهُوَ ٱلْعَزِيزُ ٱلْحَكِيمُ 24

23.  HuwAllaahul-lazii  Laaa  ‘Ilaaha  ‘illaa Huu.  ‘Al-Malikul-Qud-duusus-Salaamul-Mu’-minul-Muhayminul-'Aziizul-Jabbaarul-Mutakabbir.  Sub-haanAllaahi  'Ammaa  yushri-kuun.

24.  HuwAllaahul-Khaaliqul-Baari-'ul-Musawwiru  laHul-‘Asmaaa-'ul-Husnaa.  Yusabbihu  laHuu  maa  fis-samaawaati  wal-‘arz.  Wa  Huwal-'Aziizul-Hakiim. (Section 3/6)

23. He is Allah, than Whom there is no other God, the Sovereign Lord, the Holy One, Peace, the Keeper of Faith, the Guardian, the Majestic, the Compeller, the Superb. Glorified be Allah from all that they ascribe as partner (unto Him).

24. He is Allah, the Creator, the Shaper out of naught, the Fashioner. His are the most beautiful names. All that is in the heavens and the earth glorifies Him, and He is the Mighty, the Wise.

It has been caused to understand in these verses: Assess the Greatness and the Magnificence of Allaah Almighty by keeping His Attributes in view. His Attributes are so many which can never be counted. But if you will meditate in those Attributes which are being described here, it will help you in imagining correctly concerning Allaah Almighty.

In the previous verse it was commanded: He is Allaah, other than Whom there is neither someone else Deity and nor any other can be God save Him. He has Knowledge of everything whether that is visible or invisible. He is the most Beneficent and the most Merciful.

In this verse, it is commanded: There is no worthy of worship but Allaah. He is the Sovereign, the Pure from every evil and fault, no affliction can touch Him, He is the Bestower of Faith, the Overseer, the Exalted in Might, the Compeller, and the Superior. Exalted is Allaah above whatever they associate with Him. He is Allaah, the Creator of everything, the Inventor, the Fashioner; and to Him belong the best names. Whatever is in the heavens and the earth is exalting Him. And He is the Exalted in Might, the Well Aware of everything’s reality.

The effect of the Qur'an

 

The effect of the Qur'an (L-3231)

 لَوْ أَنزَلْنَا هَٰذَا ٱلْقُرْءَانَ عَلَىٰ جَبَلٍ لَّرَأَيْتَهُۥ خَٰشِعًا مُّتَصَدِّعًا مِّنْ خَشْيَةِ ٱللَّهِ وَتِلْكَ ٱلْأَمْثَٰلُ نَضْرِبُهَا لِلنَّاسِ لَعَلَّهُمْ يَتَفَكَّرُونَ 21  هُوَ ٱللَّهُ ٱلَّذِى لَآ إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ عَٰلِمُ ٱلْغَيْبِ وَٱلشَّهَٰدَةِ هُوَ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ 22  

21.  Law  ‘anzalNaa  haazal-Qur-‘aana  'alaa  jabilil-lara  ‘aytahuu  khaashi-'am-muta-saddi-'am-min  khash-yaTillaah.  Wa  tilkal-‘amsaalu  nazribuhaa  linnaasi  la-'allahum  yatafak-karuun.

22.  HuwAllaahul-lazii  Laaa  ‘Ilaaha  ‘illaa  Huu.  'Aalimul-Gaybi  wash-shahaadah.  Huwar-Rahmaanur-Rahiim.

21. If We had caused this Qur'an to descend upon a mountain, you (O Muhammad) verily had seen it humbled, rent asunder by the fear of Allah. Such similitudes coin We for mankind that haply they may reflect.

22. He is Allah, than Whom there is no other God, the Knower of the Invisible and the Visible. He is the Beneficent, Merciful.

It is commanded: The things which are being described in Holy Qur’an, into them is hidden strongest effect of the Truth and the Divinity. If something is manifested upon a mountain from them, it is humbled, coming apart from fear of Allaah. The aim of revealing these verses is that the mankind must guess concerning the greatness and glory of Holy Qur'an, meditate in its revelations and try to understand, even that its impression should appear in his heart, so that he may reap advantage from its advices as much as he can, correct concept of Allaah Almighty should be established in his heart and he should become His obedient slave, because arrangement of this world and the Hereafter depends on such things.

After that there is description of Greatness and Glory of Allaah Almighty Who sent down this Qur’an. It is commanded: There is no Deity or God except Allaah Almighty, because no one else has such Attributes which He has. He is Knower of the Unseen and the Witnessed. He is the Entirely Beneficent and the Especially Merciful.
