Lesson
Asking for any portent from the
Messenger of Allaah Almighty (grace,
glory, blessings and peace be upon Him) by the idolaters of Makkah did not mean that really they are
desirous of believing. But they wished that the portent of any such peculiar thing
should be demanded, from fulfilling which, the Messenger (grace, glory,
blessings and peace be upon Him) may become helpless and give up preaching of
Islam, so that they may live their own way of life, of which they had been addicted,
and enjoy reveling according to their desires.
It was commanded in the previous
verses: O Messenger! Do not hope that they will believe by observing the open
portent. Their purpose is that they may keep anyhow their present condition up
i.e. idol-worshipping, infidelity and disbelieving. Demanding a portent is only
for evading, otherwise, those Revelations are sufficient for the wise people,
which We have revealed. There is no need of more clear portents than them. Many
of them do not understand this matter, but there are enough signs in the verse
of today’s lesson for those people, who wish to understand.
It is commanded that there are hundreds
kinds of creature like moving animals in the earth, flying creature flying on
two wings in the air and the creature of the sea. Every creature of them is as such
nation, as human beings. We have established separate principles of living in
the world for every kind of nation. And We have neglected nothing in the Book
(of Our Decrees). At the end, they entire will be gathered unto their Lord
Almighty. He will treat them in the manner, which will be the demand of His
Wisdom and Mercy.
It can be understood from this
discussion that a separate way of living has been established in the world for
every nation of the creatures. How much sense is required for understanding
that particular way for any particular nation, has been given by Allaah Almighty. That sense is
sufficient to know those portents.
Likewise, according to this rule
such Revelations, Tokens and Portents have also been established for human
being, which can be known by the mankind’s wisdom and sense easily, and a man
can go straight way by observing them. These people demand rare portents, for
instance; they say: Cause to flow a spring before us by tearing the land, or
Rise on the sky in front of our eyes, bring down a Book from there and put It
before us etc.
The sense and wisdom stands
useless in their recognition. Making the sense useless is against the human
nature. Portents are revealed in every age in accordance with the improvement
of human wisdom. Present time is the most improved time of human sense, so the
portents have been sent down according to it.
