Humour On God’s Revelations

 

Jest with Commandments of Allah (L-301)

وَلا تَتَّخِذوا آياتِ اللَّهِ هُزُوًا ۚ وَاذكُروا نِعمَتَ اللَّهِ عَلَيكُم وَما أَنزَلَ عَلَيكُم مِنَ الكِتابِ وَالحِكمَةِ يَعِظُكُم بِهِ ۚ وَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ وَاعلَموا أَنَّ اللَّهَ بِكُلِّ شَيءٍ عَليمٌ231b. 

231b.  Wa  laa  tattakhizuuu  ‘AayaaTillaahi  hu-zuwaa,  wazkuruu  ni’- matAllaahi ‘alaykum  wa  maaa  ‘anzala    ‘alaykum-minal-Kitaabi  wal-Hikmati  ya-‘izukum- bih. Wat-taqUllaaha  wa’-lamuuu  ‘annAllaaha  bikulli  shay-‘in  ‘Aliim.  (Section 29/13)

231b.  And do not take God’s revelations for a joke. And remember God's favor to you, and that He revealed to you the Scripture and Wisdom to teach you. And fear God, and know that God is aware of everything.

God has warned in this verse, “Make not the Revelations of God a laughing-stock (by your behavior)” like that, we obeyed only those Orders, which we wished and left those Commands which we thought difficult to be acted upon by us. Moreover, “Abide by the entire Rules completely because your betterment is only in it”.

First stone of the social life is family and the family life, and fundamental point of the family is good relationship between husband and wife. So, it will be quite true and just to say that foundation of the entire nation’s social system depends on execution and correction of rights and duties among husband and wife. If the husband pays his wife’s all rights very gracefully and the wife performs also like this in her husband’s rights, then life of the entire society will be established on very strong foundations. But if the relations between husband and wife have been disconnected and any dispute has been created between them, then it is sure that the entire society is in danger. Therefore, all people who like correction, should pay their attention to this side, they must try that the relations among husband and wife should remain firm. Islam has emphasized especially this side.

It has been proved also from this verse through this command, “Make not the Revelations of God a laughing-stock (by your behavior)” , for example; at first divorced and then revoked, and said that either the word divorce was used as laughter and humor or it was spoken by chance in emotion.

There is abundant wisdom and advisability in these matters of the Divine Law. The human being should think about them and try to reach their depth. God has sent these commandments for our guidance and admonition. It is very necessary for us to reap advantage from them. God knows our intentions. He is Familiar of our ecstasies. Nothing is hidden from Him. To keep the intention pure and settle the matters; is very needful for us.
