Lesson
‘Ahida – (He told),
it is past tense, which means “to say, to tell something to any individual, to teach
the method of any work or to commit to charge someone. ‘Ahida-
‘indaka – (He hath a covenant with thee, He hath told you), literally,
it means that He has given you a guidance i.e. the method of supplication,
which He has taught you.
It is
commanded that it was a habit of the nation of Pharaoh that; as cunning; they
continued doing their work. Whenever any terror used to come for their
admonition, after becoming helpless; they used to come unto Prophet Moses
(peace be upon Him) and say: O Moses (peace be upon Him)! Pray for us unto Your
Lord (according to that method, which He has taught You). We promise that if
this terror is removed by Your supplication, we verily will trust that You are
a true Messenger and we will obey and believe in you, not only this, but we
will let the entire Children of Israel go with You.
Then God
Almighty says: But when We did remove from them the terror for a term; which
they must reach and give them time to repent, they used to break their covenant
immediately, as soon as the torment was removed and they used to begin tyrannizing
the Children of Israel again, of which, they were habituated.
The human
being remains always in such illusion. Neither he understood earlier and nor
understands today that he is a humankind. And a way has been prescribed for the
human, which should be adopted by him. And this way has been fixed for him by
his Creator and Lord. Leaving this way is poisonous for the human being. If he
will commit any other works, giving up this way, that will be counted in his
evil deeds. Sometimes he would have to suffer and sometimes prosperity will
come upon him, for causing to know him. If he did not stand from anyone
condition of the both, then he will be punished due to his own deeds.
