Introduction “The Beneficent”

 

Introduction “The Beneficent” (L-3158)

According to order, this is fifty-fifth Chapter of Holy Qur’an. It has three Sections, was revealed in Makkah during initiatory days of Islam. The name of this Chapter is Rahmaan (Merciful and Forgiving), which is an Epithet of God Almighty, and in which the blessings and effects of this name have been computed in detail, which have been spreading all over the world. This Chapter was revealed in reply to the disbelievers who were invited to fall prostrate before Rahmaan. They said: We are unaware of Rahmaan. How can we fall prostrate by your saying? What does it mean that sometime you say for worshipping Allaah and command us to fall prostrate before Him, and some time you say that we should fall prostrate before Rahmaan? Does it aim that we should fall prostrate before Him for Whom you say?

In Surah Baniii ‘Israaa-‘iil (Chapter 17 – Children of Israel), it was described to them: Allaah and Rahmaan (both) are the names of the same One God. And they were informed also that He has many other good names too. In this Chapter, it has been described: The entire world is Appearance of the Mercy of Allaah Almighty. Behold! We are going to describe you the Signs of His Mercy. O mankind and the Jinn! Only you two kinds of creature are wise and trustee. Can you deny any Sign from the Signs of the blessings of Allaah Almighty; if you take work from your senses? Listen! He is Rahmaan (The Beneficent) Who sent down Alcoran (Holy Qur’an), taught speaking to the mankind, created sun and moon by a prescribed way, caused to grow little plants and big trees, established the system of justice and equity in the world, and made Court for balancing justice; so that increase and decrease in measurement may be controlled, created many kinds of tasty fruits, fragrant flowers, grains and fodders for entire living creatures. So which of the blessings from them would you deny? Meditate in the creation of mankind, think about the creation of the Jinn, reflect in the arrangement of the world, see the sea and rivers – both meet but taste of their waters is separate from each others, pearls and corals are found from them, big ships and boats run upon them. Form and condition of everything is changed. Learn from their destruction! Every required thing is provided by Allaah Almighty to every necessitous. You cannot break any law of the world made by Him. Reward or punishment will be given to all of you on the Day of Judgement according to your deeds. He has made both - Paradise and Hell. Righteous people will join Paradise and evildoers will be thrown into the Hell. Paradise is a Garden for taking perpetual rest and comfort, whereas the Hell is the Fire more furious than worldly fire. Tell now! Which is it, of the favours of your Lord, that you deny? Everything exists at its proper place and every arrangement is made at its situation. It is the Appearance of the Mercy of Allaah Almighty. So we should bow down only before Him.

 Reward and punishment has been fixed (L-3157)

وَمَآ أَمْرُنَآ إِلَّا وَٰحِدَةٌ كَلَمْحٍۭ بِٱلْبَصَرِ 50  وَلَقَدْ أَهْلَكْنَآ أَشْيَاعَكُمْ فَهَلْ مِن مُّدَّكِرٍ 51  وَكُلُّ شَىْءٍ فَعَلُوهُ فِى ٱلزُّبُرِ 52  وَكُلُّ صَغِيرٍ وَكَبِيرٍ مُّسْتَطَرٌ 53  إِنَّ ٱلْمُتَّقِينَ فِى جَنَّٰتٍ وَنَهَرٍ 54  فِى مَقْعَدِ صِدْقٍ عِندَ مَلِيكٍ مُّقْتَدِرٍۭ 55

50.  Wa  maaa  ‘AmruNaaa  ‘illaa  waahidatun-  kalamhim- bil-basar. 51.  Wa  laqad  ‘ahlakNaaa  ‘ashyaa-'akum  fahal  mim-muddakir. 52.  Wa  kullu  shay-'in-  fa-'aluuhu  fiz-Zubur. 53.  Wa  kullu  saghiirinw-wa  kabiirim-mustatar. 54.  ‘Innal-Muttaqiina  fii  Jannaatinw-wa  nahar. 55.  Fii  Maq-'adi  Sidqin  'inda  Maliikim-Muqtadir.  (Section 3/10)

50. And Our commandment is but one (commandment), as the twinkling of an eye. 51. And verily We have destroyed your fellows; but is there any that remembers? 52. And every thing they did is in the scriptures, 53. And every small and great thing is recorded. 54. Lo! the righteous will dwell among gardens and rivers, 55. Firmly established in the favour of a Mighty King.

It is commanded: Form, place and time of everything of the universe is already in Our knowledge. When the time comes, We say only one Word “Kun” (Be!) and It is (Fayakuun). As soon as one blinks eyes and then sees whatever is in front instantly. Just like the same, as soon as We spoke a Word “Kun”, immediately that happened which was required. You deny Our Knowledge and Divine Power, whereas We destroyed them in a second who used to think like you in the Past. There is no cure of that who does not learn from it.

Understand it well! Everything is being recorded in the Conduct Sheet of every individual. Not only their deeds but their every movement and thought exists already on the Record. In accordance with that, the righteous will be among Gardens and Rivers, in a seat of honor near a Sovereign and Perfect in Ability.

Don’t strut on majority (L-3156)

أَمْ يَقُولُونَ نَحْنُ جَمِيعٌ مُّنتَصِرٌ 44  سَيُهْزَمُ ٱلْجَمْعُ وَيُوَلُّونَ ٱلدُّبُرَ 45  بَلِ ٱلسَّاعَةُ مَوْعِدُهُمْ وَٱلسَّاعَةُ أَدْهَىٰ وَأَمَرُّ 46  إِنَّ ٱلْمُجْرِمِينَ فِى ضَلَٰلٍ وَسُعُرٍ 47  يَوْمَ يُسْحَبُونَ فِى ٱلنَّارِ عَلَىٰ وُجُوهِهِمْ ذُوقُوا۟ مَسَّ سَقَرَ 48  إِنَّا كُلَّ شَىْءٍ خَلَقْنَٰهُ بِقَدَرٍ 49

44.  ‘Am  yaquuluuna  nahnu  jamii-'um-muntasir. 45.  Sa-yuhzamul-jam-'u  wa  yuwalluunad-dubur. 46.  Balis-Saa-'atu  maw-'idu-hum  was-Saa-'atu  ‘ad-haa  wa  ‘amarr. 47.  ‘Innal- mujrimiina  fii  zalaalinw-wa  su-'ur. 48.  Yawma  yus-habuuna  fin-Naari  'alaa  wujuuhihim  zuuquu  massa  Saqar. 49.  ‘Innaa  kulla  shay-'in  khalaqNaahu  bi-qadar.

44. Or say they: We are a host victorious? 45. The hosts will all be routed and will turn and flee. 46. Nay, but the Hour (of doom) is their appointed tryst, and the Hour will be more wretched and more bitter (than their earthly failure). 47. Lo! The guilty are in error and madness. 48. On the day when they are dragged into the Fire upon their faces (it is said unto them): Feel the touch of hell. 49. Lo! We have created every thing by measure.

It is commanded: Don’t be proud of your great assembly. We shall overcome against you, and your assembly will be defeated, and you will turn your backs very soon in retreat. So it happened in the Battles of Badr and Ahzaab.

It is commanded: After that, there is a Day of Judgement concerning which it has been promised with them. The Day of Resurrection will be more disastrous, full of afflictions and more painful than the difficulties of this world. Listen! The people, who do not refrain from wrong deeds, are in error and madness. It is not visible to them that what will happen on the Doomsday, when they will be dragged into the Fire on their faces. Their eyes will be opened on that Day and it will be said to them: Taste now the touch of the Fire. Believe in it that everything will happen as We have already predestinated.

وَلَقَدْ صَبَّحَهُم بُكْرَةً عَذَابٌ مُّسْتَقِرٌّ 38  فَذُوقُوا۟ عَذَابِى وَنُذُرِ 39  وَلَقَدْ يَسَّرْنَا ٱلْقُرْءَانَ لِلذِّكْرِ فَهَلْ مِن مُّدَّكِرٍ 40  وَلَقَدْ جَآءَ ءَالَ فِرْعَوْنَ ٱلنُّذُرُ 41  كَذَّبُوا۟ بِـَٔايَٰتِنَا كُلِّهَا فَأَخَذْنَٰهُمْ أَخْذَ عَزِيزٍ مُّقْتَدِرٍ 42  أَكُفَّارُكُمْ خَيْرٌ مِّنْ أُو۟لَٰٓئِكُمْ أَمْ لَكُم بَرَآءَةٌ فِى ٱلزُّبُرِ 43

38.  Wa  laqad  sabbahahum-  bukratan  'Azaabum-mustaqirr. 39.  Fazuuquu  'Azaabii  wa  Nuzur. 40.  Wa  laqad  yassarNal- Qur-'aana  liz-Zikri  fahal  mim- muddakir. (Section 2/9) 41.  Wa  laqad  jaaa-'a  ‘Aala  Fir-'awnan-Nuzur. 42.  Kazzabuu  bi-‘AayaatiNaa  kullihaa  fa-‘akhazNaahum  ‘akhza  'Aziizim-Muqtadir. 43.  'A-kuffaarukum  khayrum-min  ‘ulaaa-'ikum  ‘am  lakum  baraaa-'atun  fiz-Zubur.

38. And in truth the punishment decreed befell them early in the morning. 39. Now taste My punishment after My warnings! 40. And in truth We have made the Qur'an easy to remember; but is there any that remembers? 41. And warnings came in truth unto the house of Pharaoh 42. Who denied Our revelations, every one. Therefore We grasped them with the grasp of the Mighty, the Powerful. 43. Are your disbelievers better than those, or have you some immunity in the scriptures?

It is commanded: There came upon them punishment by morning, which had already been fixed for them, that is to say, it was decided that if they did not repent of bad habits, their townships would be uprooted and hurled down, and stones will be rained on them from above which will be brought by winds. It was the calamity from which they were frightened and which was fixed for them. So they tasted the punishment of wrong deeds after warning!

It is commanded: Such dreadful things have been explained in Holy Qur’an, understanding of which is not so much difficult. That will find who will contemplate. However, there is no cure of the person who does neither hear and nor meditate.

After that it is commanded: The people of Pharaoh, who belonged to Egypt, rebelled and went astray. Warners came to them and showed many miracles for threatening them, but all of them denied Our Signs, so We seized them. Pharaoh and his entire Army were drowned. Are your disbelievers better than those or have you immunity in the Scripture that you can do as you wish and you will not be punished?

كَذَّبَتْ قَوْمُ لُوطٍۭ بِٱلنُّذُرِ 33  إِنَّآ أَرْسَلْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ حَاصِبًا إِلَّآ ءَالَ لُوطٍ نَّجَّيْنَٰهُم بِسَحَرٍ 34  نِّعْمَةً مِّنْ عِندِنَا كَذَٰلِكَ نَجْزِى مَن شَكَرَ 35  وَلَقَدْ أَنذَرَهُم بَطْشَتَنَا فَتَمَارَوْا۟ بِٱلنُّذُرِ 36  وَلَقَدْ رَٰوَدُوهُ عَن ضَيْفِهِۦ فَطَمَسْنَآ أَعْيُنَهُمْ فَذُوقُوا۟ عَذَابِى وَنُذُرِ 37

33.  Kazzabat  Qawmu Luutim-bin-Nuzur. 34.  ‘Innaa  ‘arsalNaa  'alayhim  haasiban  ‘illaaa  ‘aala  Loot.  Najjaynaahum  bisahar. 35.  Ni'-matam-min  'indiNaa.  Kazaalika  najzii  man  shaker. 36.  Wa  laqad  ‘anzarahum  batshataNaa  fatamaaraw  bin-Nuzur. 37.  Wa  laqad  raawaduuhu  'an- zayfihii  fatamasNaaa  ‘a'-yuna-hum  fazuuquu  'Azaabii   wa  Nuzur.

33. The folk of Lot rejected warnings. 34. Lo! We sent a storm of stones upon them (all) save the family of Lot, whom We rescued in the last watch of the night, 35. As grace from Us. Thus We reward him who gives thanks. 36. And he indeed had warned them of Our blow, but they did doubt the warnings. 37. They even asked of him his guests for an ill purpose. Then We blinded their eyes (and said): Taste now My punishment after My warnings!

It is commanded: The folk of Lot (peace be upon him) also got ready for obstinacy. They denied him and considered that the Warner, sent by Allaah Almighty, was a liar. Allaah Almighty sent upon them a storm of stones for their punishment. Lot (peace be upon him) was informed: Leave your township before dawn along with members of your family. Allaah Almighty favoured and saved them because they were His obedient and thankful slaves. He protects such people from calamities who are grateful to Him.

Lot (peace be upon him) left no stone unturned to warn them, but they disregarded all threats and began to raise objections in his sayings. They desired and tried to snatch the guests of Lot (peace be upon him) from him; who were angels (peace be upon them) in the form of mankind. Allaah Almighty made them blind and they wandered about. Then the disaster came and seized them. Their end was the same from which they were frightened.
