Lesson
‘Al-Bayyi-naatu – (the clear proofs)
it means those orders and instructions which have no doubt and intricacy of any
kind. For instance, having Faith to believe on One God (Allah Almighty), having
Belief on the rightful of the Last Messenger of God Almighty (Muhammad’s
truism) (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him) and the commands about
the prayers. The entire orders of this kind had already reached the Jews and
other groups.
Zalaltum – (you slide back)
this word is from zallah which literally means ‘to reel, to stagger, to
slip, to err. It happens also without discretion. So we have known from it too
that to be misled due to forgetting can be cause of sin also. So the
repentance is required to be forsworn.
Aziizun – (The
Mighty, The Powerful) it means the Entity who can punish while and whatever He
wishes. It can be translated as The Dominant.
Hakiim – (The Wise) here its meaning will be
‘The Entity who punishes always at the right time and in this punishment, there
is hidden a great advisability’, because He is The Wise.
It is the good luck of the human being that Allah Almighty established
series of the Prophets (peace be upon them) with excellent Mercy and Kindness
for his guidance. To show him the straight path and cause him embracing to success,
Allah Almighty continued sending His Selected Prophets (peace be upon them) in
different nations time to time. These Messengers (peace be upon them) used to
show the right path to the people who forgot and caused to save the straying
people from the whirlpool, improved their moralities and cleaned them from the filth.
But the history of the world tells that unlucky persons violated them, sometimes
exiled and sometimes killed them. They dug the pit hole for themselves at their
own by behaving like this.
At the end Allah Almighty sent the Last Messenger (Muhammad)
(grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him). The Messenger of God Almighty
(grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him) explained the heavenly teachings
to the people of the world, showed them acting on these teachings with His
(grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him) good attitude, proved by creating
a group of righteous and respectable persons with His companionship and company
that these are the clear orders of Allah Almighty. And the success can be gotten
by acting upon them.
How much misfortune of the mankind is that in spite of getting so
great dignity he deflects away from it, acts against it and becomes its enemy? These
evil-doers will surely be punished. Because there is no reason and excuse
remained for them now. The Argument of Allah Almighty has been established. None
of them can say now that the True Religion didn’t come to us.
