Lesson
‘Aa-manar-Rasuulu – “The Messenger (grace,
glory, blessings and peace of Allah Almighty be upon him) believed”. First
Believers in their Prophet-hood are the Prophets and Messengers (peace be upon
them) themselves.
‘aa-mana
bil-laahi – (believed in Allah), intention to believe in
Allah Almighty is that to confirm, to attest, to verify His Oneness, Virtues
and Good Manners.
According to the narrations, purpose to reveal this verse is that, when
the verse before it was revealed, “And whether ye make known what is in your
minds or hide it, Allah will bring you to account for it”, then the Companions (razii-Allaahu ‘anhum wa ra-zuu ‘Anhu) of the last Messenger,
Muhammad (grace, glory, blessings and peace of Allah be upon Him) frightened
and were confounded. They made mention to the Messenger of Allah (grace, glory,
blessings and peace of Allah be upon Him), then He (grace, glory, blessings and
peace of Allah be upon Him) commanded, “Quuluu sami’-naa wa
‘ata’-naa” (Say: We hear, and
we obey) that is to say; Do not hesitate a particle too to admit the
orders of Allah Almighty, as you see much difficulty or intricacy in His
Commands and Instructions. Moreover, be ready to obey with stability.
The Companions (razii-Allaahu ‘anhum
wa ra-zuu ‘Anhu) obeyed the Messenger
(grace, glory, blessings and peace of Allah be upon Him), then following speech
was current on their tongues impatient, “We believed in Allah and we obeyed His
orders. That is to say, we are ready to obey and act upon the commands of Allah
Almighty without any care. Allah Almighty liked it very much and then this
verse was revealed, which is mentioned in this lesson.
God Almighty praised the Belief of His Messenger (grace, glory, blessings
and peace of Allah be upon Him) and his Companions (razii-Allaahu ‘anhum wa ra-zuu ‘Anhu),
due to which their hearts satisfied. The Companions (razii-Allaahu ‘anhum wa ra-zuu ‘Anhu) said, “We make no
distinction between any of His messengers (peace be upon them)”, moreover we
admit all of them as the Prophet and Messenger of God Almighty, not that we
believe in some of them and do not believe in others. We have complete faith
that we have to return to You and attend Your Court. This perception of
responsibility before Allah Almighty teaches the humankind goodness and fear of
God Almighty.
