Lesson
Importance of the existence and establishment of a group had
been cleared in the previous verse. Who would have to perform the duties of Da’-wah
‘ilal-khayr (invitation
towards the goodness), ‘Amr
bil-ma’-ruufi (enjoining the right conduct) and Nahii ‘anil-munkar (to forbid the wrong), save
the Muslims from evil and rebellion of the Infidels and the obstinate. It is the duty
of true and sincere Muslim to join this group. Now it is commanded that ‘you
must not be like those people who put the separation among themselves and divided
into sects of the religion, whereas, they had known the fact.
The people who separated and put the Ummah in the divisions of sects of the religion were the Jews and the
Christians, who had received clear and unambiguous commandments of Allah
Almighty. Nevertheless, they put the differences in the principles of Islamic
law just by following the superstitions and greed, which resulted that they
were ruined and the torment of Allah descended upon them.
This verse proved that due to separation in the religion, how
much horrible and terrible results appear, while Allah Almighty illuminates the
path of truth and righteousness clearly. Certain evil natured and insurrected
people disrupt in the religion due to following the sensual desires, worship of
the wealth and the greed. Likewise, it weakens the collective strength, teachings
of the religion cannot spread, each sect conspires to finish the other among
themselves and resultantly their freedom and national existence wipes out from
the face of the earth nationally and religiously.
Entire destructive results of the separation are in front of
us but Alas! Today the Muslims have also been divided into many sects. They are
gathering destructive provision for themselves by separating from the clear and
unambiguous principles of Islamic law. Thanks Allah Almighty that despite this Vandalism,
there are some such groups in the Muslims which consist the pious and the sincere
people, who are performing the duties of ‘Amr
bil-ma’-ruufi (enjoining the right conduct) and Nahii ‘anil-munkar (to forbid the wrong). May
Allah Almighty give more strength to these groups and make us able to join them
and to do good deeds.
