(I seek refuge in God from Satan the outcast.)
Bis-Millaahir-Rah-maanir-Rahiim.
(In the name of God, the Beneficent, the Merciful.)
وَمِنْهُم مَّن يَسْتَمِعُ إِلَيْكَ وَجَعَلْنَا عَلَىٰ قُلُوبِهِمْ أَكِنَّةً أَن يَفْقَهُوهُ وَفِىٓ ءَاذَانِهِمْ وَقْرًا وَإِن يَرَوْا۟ كُلَّ ءَايَةٍ لَّايُؤْمِنُوا۟ بِهَا حَتَّىٰٓ إِذَا جَآءُوكَ يُجَٰدِلُونَكَ يَقُولُ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوٓا۟ إِنْ هَٰذَآ إِلَّآ أَسَٰطِيرُ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ 25
وَهُمْ يَنْهَوْنَ عَنْهُ وَيَنْـَٔوْنَ عَنْهُ وَإِن يُهْلِكُونَ إِلَّآأَنفُسَهُمْ وَمَا يَشْعُرُونَ 26
Commentary
The
verses and Chapters of Holy Qur’aan used to reveal during
special and proper situations, explain and guide the Muslims suitably towards
the straightway that in which situation, what they would have to do? The
Muslims of that time used to bear in mind after hearing the Word of Allah Almighty and act upon Its
Advice. Then the revealed verse or chapter was used to put at its proper place
in the Holy Qur’aan, so that the Muslims, who would come after
them, may get guidance in their own circumstances, which make to suit the
circumstances of its time of revelation to do better for themselves, and act
according to the commands and teachings of concerning verse. They should never
do against the commands of Allah Almighty,
mentioned in Holy Qur’aan and the Sayings of His Last
Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him), otherwise, they will
be punished just like those opponents, who were punished at that time.
The
situation of that time, when this verse was revealed, was that; for twelve
years the Messenger of Allah Almighty
continued admonishing the people, caused to hear them Holy Qur’aan and
described its commandments. At that time, the people of Makkah had
been trying constantly, except those who embraced Islam, that: As far as it may
be possible, we would have to press Islam, act ourselves against its teachings
and enforce others to do so. A facsimile of the condition of those people,
which was after the preaching of twelve years, has been explained in words, and
kept in these verses of Holy Qur’aan. And the decision, which was
caused to hear in respect of them, that also exists with it, so that the people
of every time may be watchful and use to think deeply upon their own condition:
Whether; is there not the same condition as it were at that time (during the
time of revelation of this verse)? If it is, then they should correct it
immediately, otherwise they will also be given the same punishment as those
people were punished.
The
condition of that time was that the people used to listen to the Holy Qur’aan
and take it as a collection of useless fables of the old people, and prevent
others from turning their attention towards it, and they used to hate
personally its way. They also wanted to have firm hold on those habits which
their ancestors had learned, and they used to say the Messenger (grace, glory,
blessings and peace be upon Him) at the time of joining Him: What have you made
this false procedure? (Let’s flee to Allah). It is useless. These idols of us help us in every
matter. How can we set them aside?
Holy Qur’aan informed the decision
about them that they, the silly people, are making arrangements for their own
destruction, and do not know that they will be ruined very soon. Since the next
second year of the revelation of this verse, the Messenger (grace, glory,
blessings and peace be upon Him) was commanded to immigrate from Makkah
to Madinah. Everyone knows, what happened with the Makkan people
after that. They were disgraced in the world and slain, whereas, they still
have to suffer the torment of the Day of Resurrection. Now we should think:
What is the condition of today’s Muslims?
