Lesson
(Continued
from the last post)
I do not wish to leave this topic till the time, it does not become
obvious for the Muslims in the light of Holy Qur-‘aan that: What the
Muslims should do nowadays. At least; we must try our best to understand it. It
is possible that our effort may be fruitful for peace in the world.
It appears from above both Chapters that nowadays, there is no form of
war for Muslims, because sounds are echoing in the world that freedom of
opinion and religion is natural right of every human being. No one can fill his
opinion or religion in any other’s mind with force. Along with it, this freedom
is also being strengthened that no individual or group may use deceitful
behavior, pressure, hidden or open threats for making their own traditions
current or persuading by flattery or influence.
If the world has really conspired on these matters and it has been
decided that every individual and nation is free to go on its own way, and
every nation can arrange an organization of its matters according to its
internal circumstances, and it can spread openly its judgment, and every group
or community will watch the freedom of every individual collectively, then such
root will be cut, due to which; burden of war was loaded on the head of Islam
forcibly.
Islam lays stress on its followers and instructs them that they should
never fight for any other purpose except the cause of preserving the freedom of
human conscience. Thirteen years calamitous life of Muslims in Makkah is
evident of it.
It can be understood
from these Chapters that the Muslims can live peacefully with those people who
do not fight Muslims because of the religion. Existence of the Muslims in human
society is only for the purpose that they should give confidence to the hearts
of the people with their behavior and manners that really, this nation is able
to be followed.
It must be remembered
that Islamic acts like “offering the prayer, fasting, paying the poor-due and
performing the Pilgrimage (Hajj)” have been prescribed for the purpose that by
means of them, we may learn to produce good habits into us. If this demand is
not fulfilled by them then, either we did not understand the religion Islam
correctly, or we took it as “the people should tremble from the name of
Muslims”, whether their beliefs are good-for-nothing, deeds worthless and
morality lowest.
Bear in mind!
Threatening the human beings like this; is not the aim of Islam. Islam desires
to teach that the Believers should compel the world to accept it by showing
their manners and behavior; that if, some best and noblest people exist in the
world, those are these “Muslims”. Otherwise these all are only fables.
