patiently persevere in the face of persecution, hardship, and in the time of
conflict. These are the sincere; these are the pious. |
Holy Qur’an has guided for interpretation of human manners, morality and courtesy, and commanded that these characteristics should exist in such individual, who has a good moral character. He should fulfill treaty made by him, accomplish his responsibilities with extremely good manner, pay special attention on the Rights of God and the Rights of the devotees/mankind, and during the time of financial distresses, physical diseases and war against the enemies of God, should bear with patience, perseverance and firmness.
In practical life, the human beings have to suffer different types of troubles, distress, pains and difficulties. Unemployment, adversity, economical misery, starvation and poverty, and likewise all other confusions use to tease the human being every day. Problems of the children’s education and bringing them up, matters of their marriages and so like other difficult necessities vex him and he use to try and think about these matters day and night. Besides this, diseases of various sorts and bodily pains use to besiege him as if, today he is ill himself, tomorrow would be laying his any other member of family on the bed, their treatment, medicines and cure become other causes of his confusion.
Then threat of enemy, fear of waging the war, possibility of destruction, depravity and ruin, risk of bustle and disorder, these all things keep the mankind confused.
This verse ends here, in which, the Islamic concept of the righteousness has been explained. The people, who have the correct belief, sacrifice their property, worship their Creator properly and pay the poor-due regularly, fulfill the treaty, and be patient in tribulation and adversity and during the time of stress, those are they, who are sincere. And such individuals are true human beings, Believers and the God-fearing.
