God will reward the appreciative (L-465)

وَمَن يَنقَلِبْ عَلَىٰ عَقِبَيْهِ فَلَن يَضُرَّ ٱللَّهَ شَيْـًٔا وَسَيَجْزِى ٱللَّهُ ٱلشَّٰكِرِينَ 144b. |

144b. Wa many-yan-qalib ‘alaa
‘aqibayhi falany-yazurrAllaaha shay-‘aa. Wa
sa-yaj-Zillaahush-Shaakiriin. |

144b. He who turns on his heels will not harm God in any way.
And God will reward the appreciative. |
As soon as the archers left their appointed post, one troop of horses, which was being commanded by Khalid bin Waleed returned and attacked from the hill-pass side. Handful strength of ten bowmen could not stop two hundred and fifty horse-riders. However, ‘Abdullah bin Jabiir and his companions (May God be pleased with them) sacrificed their lives during fight. Then the Muslims were surrounded from the both sides. They fought so much strongly that ‘Al-‘amaan wal-Hafiiz. Many Muslims were martyred and injured. At the same time an Infidel threw a stone on the Messenger (ﷺ), which caused to martyr his tooth and face was injured. Prophet (ﷺ) fell down due to severity of the injury and someone spread the rumor that Prophet of God (ﷺ) has been killed.
Listening to this news the Muslims lost their senses and footing. A few Muslims threw their weapons. Some of them thought about getting safety from the leader of Idolaters. The Hypocrites began to say that while Prophet (ﷺ) had been killed then we should adopt our ancient religion; leaving Islam.
At such critical time, Ans ibne-Al-Nafar (May God be pleased with him) said, “If Muhammad (ﷺ) has been killed then his God is still Alive. After Prophet (ﷺ) there is no use to live. For which aim Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) was killed, we also should sacrifice ourselves for the same purpose. Saying these words, he moved forward and was martyred. Then suddenly, Messenger of God (ﷺ) called, “O slaves of God: Come here!” Listening to that particular voice, the Muslims began to shrink there again. Three Companions (May God be pleased with them) defended coming near to him (ﷺ) and caused the Army of Idolaters to run away.
Then this verse was revealed, “Muhammad (ﷺ) is not God but a Messenger. Many Prophets (Peace be upon them) have passed away before him (ﷺ). After the Prophets (Peace be upon them), their followers sustained the religion always. Therefore, your passing away from the world would not be a surprise. If you (ﷺ) die or are martyred then, would the people turn away from serving and protecting the religion? Remember it that, “If someone does so, he will lose himself; it will influence nothing to God. You must thank God that He has chosen you for the services of His religion.
Obligatory upon us is to learn
from this verse and remain steadfast on His religion in the absence of the
Messenger of God (ﷺ). Holy Qur’an has
been given in our trust and care by the Messenger (ﷺ), which is a permanent source of
Guidance. Besides this, model roll and sayings of the Messenger, Muhammad (ﷺ) are before us. We should follow
his (ﷺ)
footsteps and get success. Islam will remain alive always.
