– Surah – 9)
‘A-‘uu-zu Billaahi minash-Shay-taanir- Rajiim.
(I seek refuge in Allaah from Satan the outcast)
Bis-Millaahir-Rah-maanir-Rahiim.
(In the name of Allaah, the Beneficent, the Merciful)
(I seek refuge in Allaah from Satan the outcast)
Bis-Millaahir-Rah-maanir-Rahiim.
(In the name of Allaah, the Beneficent, the Merciful)
When entire people began to
honor the Messenger (Grace, Peace and Blessings of Allah on him), His love
and respect settled in every individual’s heart (whether he/she was elder or
little), then Lord of the Worlds selected him (Grace, Peace and Blessings of
Allah on him) to appoint His Messenger. God Almighty commended his manners and
commanded: You are Our Messenger. Invite the people of Your house, city and
country, cause them to understand and proclaim in the entire world: O People!
The way of your living is not approved by your Creator and Lord. Give up
considering yourselves superior to others. Your Creator and Master is the
Greatest. Take up with your mind that you are His servants and obey His
commandments only.
Allah Almighty enlightened the
Heart of the Messenger with His Light (Nuur), then He was sure that His
Lord and Protector was Allah Almighty. He (Grace, Peace and Blessings of Allah
on him) began to think: “Neither anyone can harm Me and nor do for Me good”. He
gripped up His loins of spirit for obedience of the commandments of God
Almighty. Those people who had gentleness of the good; they accepted His
slavery. But those; who did not have faith in the quality of mankind but the
selfishness, they said: Certainly He desires pomp and show of the world by
means of His influence with a new method. Because near to them “There can be no
other wish of a wise mankind other than it”.
The map of the world changed
due to their misunderstanding as such, and what was required to be, that could
not be happened. Messenger of Allah Almighty tried His best to explain that “I
am not desirous of anything for Myself, Whatever I say, say for your
benevolence and goodness”. He warned them, suffered and endured molestation for
complete thirteen years, but they did not feel.
At last, He produced His
Message before those people who used to come at Makkah. Fortune of
the both Worlds was written in the fate of the People of Madinah.
They had been attached to the Messenger and prepared to sacrifice their lives
and wealth on Him. Eventually, when the people of Makkah laid
but to stake upon their persistence, then He inclined unto Madinah and
established the foundation of Islamic Society.
There are one hundred fourteen
Chapters in the Holy Qur’aan, from which eighty eight were revealed
in Makkah whereas twenty six in Madinah. All
principles regarding welfare and happiness of human beings were caused to know
in the Chapters revealed in Makkah. In the fate of which people,
there was felicity, they embraced Islam and got ready to follow the
Instructions of the Messenger (Grace, Peace and Blessings of Allah on him).
They learnt the lesson of patience and stability in Makkah, and
when they were commanded in Madinah to fight, they proved that
they were best fighters.
In the Chapters revealed in Madinah, the Messenger
(Grace, Peace and Blessings of Allah on him) and His Companions (May Allah be
pleased with them) were commanded: Fight against the people of Makkah and
those people of the Scripture who have joined them, because they will not
refrain without chastisement, but you should not be tyrants, because the aim of
war is not any other but to remove the mischief only.
