Lesson
Zaalika (This). It is used to point
out something. Besides Zaalika, some other words are also used to point out
something in Arabic language. Usually Zaalika is used to point out the thing
far away but due to dignity and greatness of the Holy Qur’aan its meaning is
used here as nearby.
Al-kitaabu Every written thing is
called the book. Whenever al comes before a noun, it becomes
a particular noun. So which al is used here before kitaab,
it makes the book, “a Particular Book” i.e. Holy
Qur’aan.
Every person
in this world needs to know true principles so that adopting these principles
he may get his object. Some people wish to know these types of principles
from their sense/wisdom. But it is evident from the experience that the
principles come out from anybody’s wisdom; may not be real and sure. Because
in different matters people have different opinions. As if, we can’t agree
upon a principle collectively, but how many persons will be there, too many
advices on any principle will be there.
To
curb this tendency our GOD revealed for us the Holy Book with entire
kindness. And also commanded that speeches of this Book, “filled with full
philosophy” are true and final. There is no doubt in it. Which promises have
been made in it, surely they will be completed. And which knowledge has been
given in it that will produce true results. If any person has any doubt in
any matter, he may know by thinking and considering on the verses of the Holy
Qur’aan.
Teaching of the Holy Qur’aan is not far from the wisdom. Mankind is
invited to examine the truth of Holy Qur’aan practically. Surely using it
they will feel comfort. Who does not know that the Arabian nation had drowned
in the darkness of folly? She was backward comparing to other nations.
Maximum people were cruel and un-civilized. When this nation acted upon the
teachings of Holy Qur’aan, she succeeded in all the matters of life like
economics, politics, science, arts, social matters, civilization manners etc.
Who were behind all they commanded the all acting upon the Holy Qur’aanic
teachings. Each promise of the Holy Qur’aan was complete. But when the people
gave up acting upon it, old diseases returned in the nation.
We
should promise to act upon these teachings from the beginning whole
heartedly. Leave all types of doubts and suspicions and get success in this
life and on the Doomsday.
