Lesson
‘Ar-Raasi-khuuna – (who
are firm), this word is plural of Raasikh,
which is from Rasuukh. Rasuukh means
‘to brood in something accumulated’. Raasikh
means firm, stable, fixed or immutable
’Ar-Raasi-khuuna fil-‘ilmi – (who
are firm in knowledge), that is to say; those persons who have become expert
and matured in knowledge, who have reached the depth of science and their
hearts do not tremble due to doubts.
‘Al-muqiimiinas-Salaata – (those, who
keep up prayer)
It was described in the verse before it that the Jews are very cruel.
They talk such words fearlessly, which are sins in accordance with the Law, and
the reason of their so talking is that their hearts are free from the fear of Allaah Almighty. It has been mentioned
in this verse that some of them are those who are intelligent and they reach
the depth of each matter soon, and they understand that pleasures of the world
are not more than a few moments. Suppose! These pleasures are of hours, then
what? It entire depends upon the health, strength and fitness of the body, but
these are changeable. Without them, riches are also useless. On the contrary,
there will be neither any sign of illness or death in the life of Hereafter
(the life after death from this world), and nor the pleasures will come to an
end in minutes, hours or days. Moreover, those pleasures will be for every time
and forever. For those pleasures, you have to believe in One God (Allaah Almighty), His Angels and Messengers
including the last one i.e. Muhammad (peace be upon them), His Scriptures
including the last i.e. Holy Qur’aan
and your only duty is to obey His Commands. You have to keep up the prayer, pay
the poor-due, believe in the Day of Resurrection, and remain away from the
stupid tastes and harmful things. The best reward is ready for them in the next
lives, who adopt this Way. Wise people choose this Path only.
