Lesson
‘Alif-Laaam-Miiim-Saaad – it is not a
word but these are four separate alphabetical letters and one should recite
them separately as Alif.
Lam. Mim.Sad. In the beginning of some Surahs (Chapters) of Holy Qur’aan,
a few letters of alphabet have been mentioned, meanings of which have not been
explained. But those are recited properly. Those letters are called “Muqatt-‘aat” (small cuttings and short
verses). For its detail, please consult the beginning of Surah ‘Al-Baqarah (second Chapter of Holy Qur’aan as it has been explained there.
From the
beginning of this Chapter, it shows that there will be description in it about
those disbelievers, who stop from the Right Way and are disobedient. The world
has been created on this rule that there are only a few people, who trust in
them who speak the Truth, whereas maximum people oppose openly in the beginning.
Some of them are such people, apparently who imitate stupidly but they are
opposite heartily.
These three
kinds of people have been described in the beginning of Surah ‘Al-Baqarah. The last kind of both people prove to be big
teasers and troublesome. Such people afflicted the Messengers of Allah Almighty
(peace be upon Them) as much as they could. Open enemies of the Truth will be
mentioned in this Chapter, as it was revealed in Makkah, because the hypocrites did not exist in Makkah, but there were open enemies of
the last Messenger of Allah Almighty (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon
Him) and those, who embraced Islam. Therefore, Allah Almighty admonishes His
Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him) in the beginning of
this Surah that, this Scripture,
which We revealed upon Him, is for the purpose that, the enemies and opposite
people should be frightened through It, and those should be told their useful
matters who believe in it.
If the people
do neither listen to you (the Messenger) and nor believe, there should neither
be any heaviness in Your heart, nor be sad and nor any hesitation should be
born in Your heart to cause to hear the Holy Qur’aan. You should carry on frightening them with full faith from
the punishment of their infidelity and wicked deeds by reciting Holy Qur’aan before them unhesitatingly. And
you should not care for that what they say or hear. There is a lot of useful
stuff in the verses of this same Scripture for them who believe. They will reap
much advantage from them (verses).
You should say
everyone: Come hither! This Scripture has not been created by any mankind.
There is nothing self-made in It. It has been sent down unto you by your Lord.
Don’t hear any of them whom you have chosen as your companions and protecting friends.
Your best companion, supporter and protecting friend is your Lord, God
Almighty. Obey Him only and do not obey any other against His Command. Only He
provides all things of your necessity, but alas! You don’t pay attention. Think
a little and count His rewards, then certainly you will neither hear anyone,
nor accept except Him.
This all was
being said to the people of Makkah at
that time, when this Surah was being
revealed, but in fact, it is an address for the entire people of the world, and
command for every era and every sensible person.
