Commentary
The
lessons of Surah ‘Al-Maaa-‘idah have finished with the last
lesson, now we are going to review it and see the lessons taught by the Chapter
(Surah) under discussion.
Actually,
its all contents revolve around only one topic. We can reap full advantage from
this Surah; live a happy and successful life, if we understand that
particular topic.
It
is inborn nature of the human being that he desires to fulfill his every desire
without any hindrance. He thinks that he should make any such plan, what he
wills, that may be done and there should be no stoppage in its attainment.
Moreover, everyone should regard his assent, follow him and help him in gaining
his object. The Holy Qur’aan accepts this nature, but educates
along with it that independence of everybody should be bound of any rule and
plan; otherwise he is an animal, not a mankind.
This
rule is called “Law” and it has been made by Him, Who created the human being
(The Creator). Accepting it, is called “the Belief”. The name of that Law is
“Holy Qur’aan” and Its Maker is Allah Almighty. In the beginning
of this Chapter, it has been commanded “Abide by the Law”. It has been told in
this way that the name of accepting, Allah and Qur’aan,
is “Belief”. Accomplish your responsibilities. It means “your personal freedom
is nothing before “this Law” and there can be none maker of the Law but Allah Almighty. It is the first
sign of the Belief, without which, nobody can say him/herself “a Believer”.
It
is the condition to enforce the Law that some traditions are established, and
then everyone is admonished that none should commit against these customs. It
is the responsibility of the entire nation as aggregate to watch this matter.
In short, the Maker of the rules of Law is Allah Almighty, but the responsibility of watching them is
upon the entire nation.
It
is known that the real things, which need special attention in the world, are
four:
(1)
Allah Almighty
(2)
His Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him) and the Law
i.e. Holy Qur’aan and the Sayings of the Messenger (peace be
upon Him), which explain this Law
(3)
The living being (mankind)
(4)
The entire nation.
Allah Almighty
and Holy Qur’aan are Eternal, Immovable and Unchangeable at
Their own places. Mutual relations between the living being and the society are
required to be established according to the principles commanded by Them (Allah Almighty and Holy Qur’aan).
It is duty of the society to arrange properly for every person to cause to
understand the Law perfectly, and that is called Education.
It
is the duty of the living being (every person) that he/she should be bound to
act according to the traditions/customs, established by the society, and when
one observes that any tradition has become contrary to the Law, then one should
inform the society properly and leave that tradition personally. This lesson
has been caused to understand in this Surah and commanded that
old nations erred in either understanding or acting upon them. Those errors
have been manifested, so that we may be saved from them.
