Lesson
Razaqnaakum – (We have provided you), here bring Himself as
first person plural, Allah Almighty declared, “wealth and property, livelihood
and prosperity, whichever is held with the people, that entire is given by Us
and actually We have the Right to order to spend the wealth and property for
the works We wish.
Yawmun – (Day),
here Yawmun means the Doomsday,
the Day of Resurrection. It signifies that chance to spend the wealth for good
works and collect the goodness is only in this world. After death when the
Doomsday will reach, then there will be no chance for any action.
Allah Almighty has narrated many
commands regarding worships and affairs in this chapter (Surah). The
most difficult work in these entire acts is to sacrifice one’s life and wealth.
So it has been ordered about these works over and over. Love of these two
things carries the human being towards the sin/evil. God Almighty warned about
the importance of Jihaad (to try and strive) after telling the story of
Prophet Saul (peace be upon him) and his enemy Goliath, and ordered the people
to sacrifice their lives in the way of Allah Almighty according to the commands
of the Messenger of God Almighty (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon
him). Wealth and riches is required to purchase the war equipment. So Allah
Almighty emphasized to spend wealth and property along-with the order for Jihaad,
and declared, “O Believers! We are Giver you every thing. You should not worry
for it that due to spending for good works, you will become poor, or you will
not be able to save something for future. Moreover keep your mind on it that
there is nothing of your own. It is only Our Giving. It should not be so that
you use to collect the wealth and property due to its love and the days of
grace end, because it will neither be possible at that time to purchase any
goodness against this money or wealth from anywhere, nor you would be released
from the punishment of sin or evil, nor recommendation of any person would be
fruitful there and nor any friendship or relationship will be useful. In this
world the person can get advantage either through bribe or
friendship/relationship or recommendation, but on the Doomsday only personal
deeds will be helpful.
