Lesson
The
characteristics of the righteous group from the People of the Scripture are
being described. Their three virtues were stated in the first verse, that is to
say; they are on the straight path, recite the Revelations of Allah Almighty and
prostrate before God Almighty. Now their some more excellences have been
mentioned.
They have
faith in Allah Almighty and in the Last Day wholeheartedly, fear from the Day
of Judgment and want to precede running fast from others; when they are called
for any good work. Moreover, they also wish to bring others unto the right
path. Indeed, these are the People from the Jews, to whom Allah Almighty has bestowed
fortune of good disposition and special part of the guidance.
It is obvious
from this verse that although different kinds of evils had been grown into the
Jews, in spite of reciting the glad tidings about the Last Messenger (grace,
glory, blessings and peace be upon him) in their Holy and Heavenly Books, they had
been firm on denial. Even then, there were some such People present among them,
who had succeeded in recognizing the Truth giving up the stubbornness and
spite. Such blessings of Allah Almighty rained upon those People, and other
Jews who continued to deny the True Religion for keeping up their false
dignity, their end was very bad.
So it is
evident that he/she gets the Divine guidance, who leaves the stubbornness,
recites the Revelations of Allah Almighty, prostrates before Him at night,
believes in Oneness of God Almighty and in the Day of Resurrection, escapes
from the evil deeds and runs towards the good deeds. Such People will get meed
from God Almighty. He knows the pious People very well. Therefore, whenever the
evils of the Jews are discussed, then such kind of sober and abstinent persons
are exempted.
