‘A-‘uu-zu
Billaahi minash-Shay-taanir- Rajiim.

(In the name of God, the Beneficent, the Merciful.)
(I seek refuge in God from Satan the outcast.)
Bis-Millaahir-Rah-maanir-Rahiim.
(In the name of God, the Beneficent, the Merciful.)
وَمَنْ أَظْلَمُ مِمَّنِ ٱفْتَرَىٰ عَلَى ٱللَّهِ كَذِبًا أَوْ كَذَّبَ بِـَٔايَٰتِهِۦٓ إِنَّهُۥ لَا يُفْلِحُ ٱلظَّٰلِمُونَ 21
وَيَوْمَ نَحْشُرُهُمْ جَمِيعًا ثُمَّ نَقُولُ لِلَّذِينَ أَشْرَكُوٓا۟ أَيْنَشُرَكَآؤُكُمُ ٱلَّذِينَ كُنتُمْ تَزْعُمُونَ 22
Commentary
Let’s
consider thoughtfully and ascertain once again in this lesson on the verses, we
discussed in the previous lesson. A rule has been described in the verses,
which can never be broken. That rule is: the consequence of the oppressor will
never be good. The word “wrongdoer” (tyrant) is very famous. He is called a
wrongdoer, who tyrannizes. Tyranny means either to do such an act or to say
such words, which hurt either oneself or someone else, or it lets other people
to make wrong assumptions about anyone. The meaning of “the consequence will
never be good” is that the tyrant is disgraced and humiliated even in the world,
and whether he dwells in a good state for a few days in the beginning, but at
last, he is ruined and thrown away. If he is saved in the world someway, after
death he will undergo severe torment and restlessness. He dies in such a
condition that the people begin to hate him.
The
worst form of the tyranny is that someone commits such an act or talks in such
manner, due to which either he becomes an arrogant of Allah Almighty, or which causes
to spread false notions about Allah Almighty
among the people, or which becomes cause of contempt in respect of either any
Prophet/Messenger (peace be upon Him), or Holy Qur’aan, or Islam.
In the group of tyranny – ascribing plurality to Allah Almighty, claim of Prophet-hood after the last
Messenger, Muhammad (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him), against
the principles of Islam interpretation of Holy Qur’aan as
one’s mind desires, denial of Hadith {Sayings of the Messenger
(grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him)} and all matters of this type
come.
In
the beginning of Islam, the tyranny was customary in two forms i.e. calling the
Prophet (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him) a liar and considering
the Holy Qur’aan a collection of some common tales and
stories, and not giving any importance to Its Commands. In the previous lesson,
these both forms of wrongdoing were discussed, though it is the Cause of this
verse’s Revelation.
The
Formula of this verse will be applied in every duration for every form of
tyranny. Every tyrant will suffer the same punishment, which has been described
in this verse. The form of decision will also be the same, which has been
cleared here. That is to say; whosoever will be disgraced and failed at the
end, will be a tyrant, and whosoever will be rewarded and succeeded, will be
known that he was not a tyrant.
The
Muslims should reconsider their condition after reciting this verse, “Wherever
are they not involved in any form of tyranny? Whether are they not saying such
words or doing such acts due to which they would have been disgracing
either Allah Almighty,
or His Prophet (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him), or Holy Qur’aan,
or Islam? (May Allah forbid)
Wherever our deeds not as are, there is a fear of insult in respect of all
above? If it is true, then we are also wrongdoers and greater tyrants, and if
the prescribed punishment of tyrants is not applied on us today, then there is
a threat of it tomorrow (on the Day of Resurrection).
That has never been proved as wrong, which the
Holy Qir’aan has commanded. There is no need of going in
detail, we should think, confessing and being ashamed of our faults that if a
Muslim is either a drunkard, gambler, thief, robber, fornicator, dishonest,
rascal, greedy of wealth, killer, immoral, arrogant or fond of talking bawdy,
then at least, is he not insulting and defaming Islam?
