Ways of dwelling (L-3089)

إِنَّمَا ٱلْمُؤْمِنُونَ إِخْوَةٌ فَأَصْلِحُوا۟ بَيْنَ أَخَوَيْكُمْ وَٱتَّقُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ لَعَلَّكُمْ تُرْحَمُونَ 10 (ع) يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ لَا يَسْخَرْ قَوْمٌ مِّن قَوْمٍ عَسَىٰٓ أَن يَكُونُوا۟ خَيْرًا مِّنْهُمْ وَلَا نِسَآءٌ مِّن نِّسَآءٍ عَسَىٰٓ أَن يَكُنَّ خَيْرًا مِّنْهُنَّ وَلَا تَلْمِزُوٓا۟ أَنفُسَكُمْ وَلَا تَنَابَزُوا۟ بِٱلْأَلْقَٰبِ 11a

10.  ‘Innamal- Mu'-minuuna  ‘ikhwatun  fa-‘aslihuu  bayna  ‘akhawaykum  wattaqUllaaha  la-'allakum  turhamuun.  (Part Three-4th) (Section 1/13) 11a.  Yaaa-‘ayyuhallaziina  ‘aamanuu  laa  yas-khar  qawmum-min qawmin  'asaaa  ‘any-yakuunuu  khayram-minhum  wa  laa  nisaaa-'um-min-nisaaa-'in  'asaaa  ‘any-yakunna  khayram-min-hunn.  Wa  laa  talmizuuu  ‘anfusakum  wa  laa  tanaabazuu  bil-‘alqaab.

10. The believers are naught else than brothers. Therefore make peace between your brethren and observe your duty to Allah that haply you may obtain mercy. 11a. O you who believe! Let not a folk deride a folk who may be better than they (are), not let women (deride) women who may be better than they are; neither defame one another, nor insult one another by nicknames.

At first it has been described: The Muslims; mutually themselves; are like children of one father. Make settlement between them when they quarrel with one another because they are your brothers, otherwise you will be punished. Remember! You can be hopeful of the Mercy of Allaah Almighty if you do righteous works due to His fear. Moreover, you have been prevented from such acts by which the disputes are produced. Men and women must neither ridicule one another mutually and nor hate, lest that might be better than the ridiculer. In addition, you must not disclose fault of any other by gesture of eye, tongue or hand, do neither insult one another and nor call each other by offensive nicknames.

Remedy of disputes

 

Remedy of disputes (L-3088)

وَإِن طَآئِفَتَانِ مِنَ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ ٱقْتَتَلُوا۟ فَأَصْلِحُوا۟ بَيْنَهُمَا فَإِنۢ بَغَتْ إِحْدَىٰهُمَا عَلَى ٱلْأُخْرَىٰ فَقَٰتِلُوا۟ ٱلَّتِى تَبْغِى حَتَّىٰ تَفِىٓءَ إِلَىٰٓ أَمْرِ ٱللَّهِ فَإِن فَآءَتْ فَأَصْلِحُوا۟ بَيْنَهُمَا بِٱلْعَدْلِ وَأَقْسِطُوٓا۟ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ يُحِبُّ ٱلْمُقْسِطِينَ 9

9.  Wa  ‘in  taaa-'ifataani  minal- Mu'-miniinaqtataluu  fa- ‘aslihuu  baynahumaa.  Fa-‘im- bagat  ‘ihdaahumaa  'alal- ‘ukhraa  faqaati-lullatii  tabgii  hattaa  tafiii-'a  ‘ilaaa  ‘Amrillaah.  Fa-‘in- faaa-'at  fa- ‘aslihuu  baynahumaa  bil-'adli  wa  ‘aqsituu.  ‘InnAllaaha  yuhibbul- Muqsitiin.

9. And if two parties of believers fall to fighting, then make peace between them. And if one party of them does wrong to the other, fight you that which does wrong till it return unto the ordinance of Allah; then, if it return, make peace between them justly, and act equitably. Lo! Allah loves the equitable.

This verse explains that first work of the Muslims is to establish such society, by power and pressure of which every individual remain on the straight path, no one be permitted to rebel or commit a riot and nor any person may show his violence to any other. It is instructed to such society: If two parties fall to fighting among the believers, then the society must come forward immediately and make settlement between the two by admonishing. But if they don’t agree straightforwardly, and strong party attack the weak, then the whole society should fight against the violent, make them right forcibly. When they are overpowered and obey the Command of Allaah Almighty that “fight not one another mutually”, then make such a settlement between them in which no one has to be disgraced and both remain equal. Take care of justice every time and in every situation. Allaah Almighty loves those who act justly.

It also aims from this verse that the society should organise itself to suppress the troublemakers and riots in the world, and rule collectively, so that the rioters; whether they belong to own people or others; may be suppressed. It must be the form of the government that such a person from themselves must be chosen as a leader; who is aware of Islamic Law and fears Allaah Almighty, get ready to give him good advice and to help him wholeheartedly.

The Glory of the Messenger

 

The Glory of the Messenger (L-3087)

لَوْ يُطِيعُكُمْ فِى كَثِيرٍ مِّنَ ٱلْأَمْرِ لَعَنِتُّمْ وَلَٰكِنَّ ٱللَّهَ حَبَّبَ إِلَيْكُمُ ٱلْإِيمَٰنَ وَزَيَّنَهُۥ فِى قُلُوبِكُمْ وَكَرَّهَ إِلَيْكُمُ ٱلْكُفْرَ وَٱلْفُسُوقَ وَٱلْعِصْيَانَ أُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ هُمُ ٱلرَّٰشِدُونَ   7b  فَضْلًا مِّنَ ٱللَّهِ وَنِعْمَةً وَٱللَّهُ عَلِيمٌ حَكِيمٌ 8

7b.  Law  yutii-'ukum  fii  kasiirim-minal-‘amri  la-'anittum  wa  laakinnAllaaha  habbaba   ‘ilaykumul-   ‘Iimaana  wa  zayyanahuu  fii  quluubikum  wa  karraha  ‘ilaykumul- kufra  wal-fusuuqa  wal-'isyaan. ‘Ulaaa-‘ika  humur- raashiduun. 8.  Fazlam-minAllaahi  wa  ni'-mah.  Wallaahu  'Aliimun  Hakiim.

7b.  If he were to obey you in much of the government, you would surely be in trouble; but Allah has endeared the faith to you and has beautified it in your hearts, and has made disbelief and lewdness and rebellion hateful unto you. Such are they who are the rightly guided. 8. (It is) a bounty and a grace from Allah; and Allah is Knower, Wise.

It is commanded: You must know the value of the Messenger of Allaah Almighty (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) when he lives between you. It's not his job that he should be bound by someone's opinion. Even he does not follow own opinion. He performs that what is commanded by Allaah Almighty. Therefore, you must understand it carefully that if he (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) had followed your opinion then there would be no difference between a Messenger of Allaah Almighty and common people. As other people could never get actual success by following own desires, like this he also would have to face the failure, because in the public every individual thinks about personal advantage, which is selfishness. The system of the world cannot run on selfishness, but all people suffer difficulties everywhere. The system will be correct then when all human beings will believe in Allaah Almighty.

Accordingly, it is the Mercy of Allaah Almighty Who produced love of Belief in your hearts and you consider it the best thing. He produced hatred of denial, depravity and disobedience in your hearts. Remember! Such people will be successful who believe and obey the Commandments of Allaah Almighty and the Sayings of His Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him). It is Grace of God upon them who got it because He bestowed a great blessing to them. Allaah Almighty knows everything and is Aware of all secrets. Obedience is the best thing for the Believers who do good works.

Don't listen to everyone

 

Don't listen to everyone (L-3086)

يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوٓا۟ إِن جَآءَكُمْ فَاسِقٌۢ بِنَبَإٍ فَتَبَيَّنُوٓا۟ أَن تُصِيبُوا۟ قَوْمًۢا بِجَهَٰلَةٍ فَتُصْبِحُوا۟ عَلَىٰ مَا فَعَلْتُمْ نَٰدِمِينَ 6  وَٱعْلَمُوٓا۟ أَنَّ فِيكُمْ رَسُولَ ٱللَّهِ 7a

6.  Yaaa-‘ayyuhallaziina  ‘aamanuuu  ‘in-  jaaa-'akum  faasqum-  binaba-‘in-   fatabayyanuuu  ‘an-  tusiibuu  qawmam-  bi-jahaa-latin-  fatusbihuu  'alaa  maa  fa-'altum  naadimiin. 7a.  Wa'-lamuuu  ‘anna  fiikum  RasuuLallaah.

6. O you who believe! If an evil-liver bring you tidings, verify it, lest you smite some folk in ignorance and afterward repent of what you did. 7a. And know that the messenger of Allah is among you.

One more important matter has been described in this verse. It happened that the Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) sent Walid bin Utbah to the people of the tribe Banii Mustalaq, who embraced Islam during near past, for knowing their circumstances and for collecting the poor-due from them. There was old enmity among the tribes of Walid bin Utbah and Banii Mustalaq before Islam. When Walid reached near them, many of the people of Banii Mustalaq advanced to receive him with gladness. Walid thought that they were coming with the intention to kill him. He ran back to the Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) and said: The people of Banii Mustalaq have become renegades. The Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) got ready to punish them. Meanwhile, their some people came and requested: We came out for his reception, not with any bad intention. The Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) sent Khalid bin Walid (May Allaah be pleased with him) secretly for investigation. He said when he returned: Those people are firm on Islam. I have received the poor-due from them.

After that this verse was revealed. It is commanded: O Believers! Don’t trust in everyone’s talk. Inquire at first before putting your trust if someone reports, who himself is careless from Islamic Law, lest you attack upon any folk in haste; having faith in one’s report, and it comes in your knowledge afterwards that you have done wrong, and then you have to regret.

By advising this, Holy Qur’an finished many mutual disputes, because base of the most of them is usually on false rumors. It is commanded: You must bear in mind that among you is the Messenger of Allaah Almighty (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him).

Etiquettes of meeting

 

Etiquettes of meeting (L-3085)

إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ يَغُضُّونَ أَصْوَٰتَهُمْ عِندَ رَسُولِ ٱللَّهِ أُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ ٱلَّذِينَ ٱمْتَحَنَ ٱللَّهُ قُلُوبَهُمْ لِلتَّقْوَىٰ لَهُم مَّغْفِرَةٌ وَأَجْرٌ عَظِيمٌ 3  إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ يُنَادُونَكَ مِن وَرَآءِ ٱلْحُجُرَٰتِ أَكْثَرُهُمْ لَا يَعْقِلُونَ 4  وَلَوْ أَنَّهُمْ صَبَرُوا۟ حَتَّىٰ تَخْرُجَ إِلَيْهِمْ لَكَانَ خَيْرًا لَّهُمْ وَٱللَّهُ غَفُورٌ رَّحِيمٌ 5

3.  ‘Innallaziina  yaguzzuuna  ‘aswaatahum  'inda  RasuuLillaahi  ‘ulaaa-'ikal-laziinam-tahanAllaahu  quluubahum  littaqwaa.  Lahum-Magfiratunw-wa  ‘Ajrun  'aziim. 4.  ‘Innallaziina  yunaaduunaka  minw-waraaa-'il-HUJURAATI  ‘aksaruhum  laa  ya'-qiluun. 5.  Wa  law  ‘annahum  sabaruu  hatta  takhruja  ‘ilayhim  lakaana  khayrallahum. Wallaahu  Gafuurur-Rahiim.

3. Lo! They who subdue their voices in the presence of the messenger of Allah, those are they whose hearts Allah has proven unto righteousness. Theirs will be forgiveness and immense reward. 4. Lo! Those who call you from behind the private apartments, most of them have no sense. 5. And if they had patience till you came forth unto them, it had been better for them. And Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.

'Al-HUJURAATI – (the chambers, the private apartments),

It is commanded: Those who lower their voices respectfully before the Messenger of Allaah (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) - they are the ones whose hearts Allaah Almighty has tested for righteousness. Their sins and errors will be forgiven. For them is a great reward. The people used to come from outside the Township and often shout (from behind the chamber): O Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him)! Come out! We have come to see you (during his presence in his chamber)! 

Concerning them it is commanded: Most of them do not know Etiquette of meeting. Say to them: Give up your rudeness and when you come for meeting with the Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him), you must have patience until he comes out to you, speak with one another politely and with low voice. It would be better for you. Calling loudly to the Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) from outside of the chamber is incivility. However if you committed as it unknowingly, Allaah Almighty is Forgiving and Merciful. But in future you must be careful and do as directed.
