Hereafter

– Chapter – 6)–Stage - 2
Verses
– 29 & 30 of 165, Section – 3 of 20 (Part - 7)
BisMIllaahir-Rahmaanir-Rahiim
In the name of Allaah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
Lesson -2
Summary of both verses discussed
in the previous lesson is, “Don’t forget the Day of Resurrection (Rising Again
after death) by indulging in romances and fables of the world, and believe in
the unseen Judgment Day and the concealed Hell, otherwise it will not be useful
for you if you believed after observing them. And the retribution for
infidelity and denial in the world will be very severe punishment in the
Doomsday.
It is the universal law, according
to which, Islam desires to teach the Humankind to dwell in the world. Without understanding
it properly, it is impossible to pass the time of this worldly life well
efficiently. How much this rule will be cleared and manifested and kept in
mind, so much the human being will really be matured, otherwise living a
successful life in the Hereafter is not possible.
The mankind wishes to fulfill his
all desires without any hindrance. But if he considers that he will be able to
fulfill his desires with the help of material things, then it is his false
notion, because one of his wishes can never be fulfilled in the world, which is
“To live always”. Neither has anyone remained living in the world forever and
nor can live. The open consequence comes out from it that the entire things of the
world, like wealth and property, power and honor, laughter and jest, pleasure
and delight will be kept back, and at last, the human being will go to his next
journey, (giving up everything here) which will start after death.
Holy Qur’aan describes that the hearty object of the human being “That
should be fulfilled, what I wish”, will be fulfilled but after death and on the
condition that he was not slave of his desires in the world. Moreover, he/she
should dwell in the world in accord with the Commands of Allaah Almighty and believe in it that “If I shall follow the
Commands of Allaah Almighty and the
Sayings of His Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him)
instead of following my own desires, then after death, my all desires will be
fulfilled in the Gardens (Paradise). And I shall be given such a life, which
will never be expire-able.
This is the lesson which has made the people
to understand in Holy Qur’aan again
and again. Such people have been censured in the verses under reference (29
& 30), who say: There is naught save our life of the world, and we shall not be raised
(again). Those people have been engaged
to fulfill their desires. It has been told here that this thought is the root
of destruction as well as it is against the sense because, while every human
being desires naturally that “My all wishes should be fulfilled” and those
cannot be fulfilled in this world, then he must be provided opportunity to
fulfill his natural desire, otherwise his humanity will not be perfect.
Islam teaches that after death his
desire will be fulfilled but not of all. Moreover, only that person’s desires
will be fulfilled, who does not want to complete his all wishes here, and acts
upon those commands, which Holy Qur’aan
taught him/her. And he/she does not go near those deeds, which have been prevented
by the Holy Qur’aan and Sunnah. Such person will live a best
life forever after death, and his/her every desire will be fulfilled without
any further labor and hard work. Collection of that gain is called “Paradise”,
that is to say; fulfillment of every desire.
