The moment for consideration

Surah Huud (Hud) - 11

 ‘A-‘uu-zu  Billaahi minash-Shay-taanir- Rajiim. 
(I seek refuge in God from Satan the outcast.)

Bis-Millaahir-Rah-maanir-Rahiim.
(In the name of God, the Beneficent, the Merciful.)

From the commandment of God Almighty, which He addressed to Noah (peace be upon him) that “O Noah! Your son (Yam or Kan’aan) is not of your household, he is of evil conduct”, such false thought has been rendered null and void, in which; the People of the Scripture had been entangled, and till today, they and many other people have fallen into the same deception.

The People of the Scripture had forgotten many commandments, even then they used to acquiesce in the Day of Resurrection, as well as they used to believe in the Abodes of the Blessed and the Infernal (the Heaven and the Hell), they were not deniers of the Reward and the Punishment in the Hereafter. But they were proud of their super-eminence relating to family.

The Children of Israel used to say to the Muslims: We are children of Prophets, there is no harm; if we commit even any sin, our forefathers will cause us to excuse. If we would be punished in the Hell, that would be for only a few days. Why their children will be left in the Hell whose forefathers have so much higher ranks; as ours? They (our forefathers) were intimate and beloved of God. Why their descendants would not be admitted and beloved?

The Christians used to say: our recommendatory is Jesus Christ (peace be upon him), who himself is son of God (Let us flee to God). He sacrificed his life for us. Certainly he will cause to forgive us whether we commit any sin.

Holy Qur’an has refuted above mentioned both kinds of false thoughts with full detail and clearness, so that the Muslims should not be entangled in such error that relationship with a person of higher grade is sufficient for deliverance of any mankind. The same has been caused to understand here in the story of Noah (peace be upon him).

It has been made clear in Surah ‘Al-Jaasiah that none will be relative of any other on the Day of Resurrection save those people who escape from sins in the world and do good works. Moreover, evildoers will be enemies of one another. Neither genealogy will be useful there and nor the caste of any individual will have any importance. Last Messenger of Allah Almighty Muhammad (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) said to his daughter Fatimatuz-Zuhra (Allah be pleased with her) clearly: O Fatimah! You should not think that being my daughter will be cause of your deliverance. You also would have to do good works, obey and worship Allah Almighty.

It has been commanded in Surah Luqmaan clearly: O People! Fear Allah, give up committing sins and manage to save yourselves from misfortunes of that Day when neither the father will be able to save his son and nor the son to his father.

The Real Facts

Surah Huud (Hud) - 11

 ‘A-‘uu-zu  Billaahi minash-Shay-taanir- Rajiim. 
(I seek refuge in God from Satan the outcast.)

Bis-Millaahir-Rah-maanir-Rahiim.
(In the name of God, the Beneficent, the Merciful.)

قَالَ يَٰنُوحُ إِنَّهُۥ لَيْسَ مِنْ أَهْلِكَ إِنَّهُۥ عَمَلٌ غَيْرُ صَٰلِحٍ فَلَاتَسْـَٔلْنِ مَا لَيْسَ لَكَ بِهِۦ عِلْمٌ إِنِّىٓ أَعِظُكَ أَن تَكُونَ مِنَ ٱلْجَٰهِلِينَ 46  

                                                   

46.  He said: o Noah! Lo! He is not of thy household; lo! He is of evil conduct, so ask not of Me that whereof thou hast no knowledge. I admonish thee lest thou be among the ignorant.

46.  Qaala  yaa-Nuuhu  ‘innahuu  lay-sa  min  ‘ahlik.  ‘Innahuu  ’amalun  gayru  saalih.  Falaa  tas-‘alni  maa  laysa  laka  bihii  ‘ilm.  ‘Inniii  ‘a-‘izuka  ‘an-  takuuna  minal-jaa-hiliin.

Commentary

                                                                

’Amala – (work), whatsoever a man practices, is his work, conduct. Here it aims “of conduct”, that is to say; your son is evildoer.

Maa  laysa  laka  bihii  ‘ilm – (that whereof thou hast no knowledge), i.e. you should not ask for such thing, about which you don’t know that whether it is suitable or otherwise, for example, “deliverance of Kan-‘aan (son of Noah).

It is commanded that the desires should be in obedience to the Commandment of Allah Almighty. It is called “patience, resignation and endurance”. In addition to above, this boy (son of Noah) was not included in your household, because only such person can be of household, whose conduct is according to the conduct of other members of the household. That person may be a member of good person’s household; who is good himself. Yam was of evil conduct, a malefactor.

Living in a house or place in the world, is not sufficient for being a member of the household, although apparent behavior with him is the same as with other members of the household. In the Hereafter, only he is the member of the household, who is a partner in belief and good works along with his elders. Otherwise, after death, any believer will not have any relationship and connection with any infidel. Only pious, abstinent and God-fearing people will be relatives and companions of one another.

After that, it is commanded: you are being admonished and causing to hear for the purpose that lest you be not among the ignorant people. In fact, your son Yam and his mother are not members of your household. They did not adopt your religion, but liked to live astray along with other astray people. You don’t know that they will never adopt the way of goodness, but We (Allah Almighty) know that they cannot come unto the Straight Path, so you should not recommend them.

وَنَادَىٰ نُوحٌ رَّبَّهُۥ فَقَالَ رَبِّ إِنَّ ٱبْنِى مِنْ أَهْلِى وَإِنَّ وَعْدَكَ ٱلْحَقُّ وَأَنتَ أَحْكَمُ ٱلْحَٰكِمِينَ 45  

                                                   

45.  And Noah called in his Lord and said: My Lord! Lo! My son is of my household! And surely Thy promise is true and Thou are the most Just of judges.

Commentary

                                                                

It has been described earlier that entire members of the family of Noah (peace be upon him) rode in the ship, but a son named Yam, whose surname was Kan-aan, did not ride. Noah (peace be upon him) caused to understand him: Ride with us in the ship. But the heart of the son had been inclined in amusement with his friends, who were of the same nature. He had been living in the house of Noah (peace be upon him), but was a vagabond. Companions of Noah (peace be upon him) were of simple disposition. They were not fond of luxurious things, jollity, a fair or mocking talks. Contrary to this, he used to see bloom of life in the people of city and like to pass his time and engage in merriments with them.

Messenger Noah (peace be upon him) would have thought that his thoughts would be correct due to perplexity and confusion at the time of disaster, and after observing the people drowning in the storm of water; he will ride in the ship with them, and when he would slip away from his evildoer friends then he would adopt the behavior of good people automatically.

He (Noah - peace be upon him) could not guess that he (son) has got out of temper. When he replied carelessly on the call of Noah (peace be upon him) that: I am not necessitous of any ship. I shall climb on any high peak of the mountain. Then Noah (peace be upon him) was disappointed from his side. In the meanwhile, suddenly a wave of water came in between them and carried him flowing away.

Prophet Noah (peace be upon him) was worried but at that time He (peace be upon him) could not speak before the Dignity of Allah Almighty. When the hurricane subsided and the ship took rest upon a mount, then He (peace be upon him) prayed in the Court of God Almighty: O my Lord! Lo! He was my son and of my household. Thou hast promised to save my household. Saying only this, He (peace be upon him) was silent respectfully.

Bis-Millaahir-Rah-maanir-Rahiim.
(In the name of God, the Beneficent, the Merciful.)

وَقِيلَ يَٰٓأَرْضُ ٱبْلَعِى مَآءَكِ وَيَٰسَمَآءُ أَقْلِعِى وَغِيضَ ٱلْمَآءُ وَقُضِىَ ٱلْأَمْرُ وَٱسْتَوَتْ عَلَىٱلْجُودِىِّ وَقِيلَ بُعْدًا لِّلْقَوْمِ ٱلظَّٰلِمِينَ 44  

                                                   

44.  And it was said: O earth! Swallow thy water and O sky! Be cleared of clouds! And the water was made to subside and the Commandment was fulfilled; and it (the ship) came to rest upon (the mount) Al-Judi and it was said: A far removal for wrongdoing folk!

44.  Wa  qiila  yaaa-‘arzub-la-‘ii  maaa-‘aki  wa  yaa-samaaa-‘u  ‘aqli-‘ii  wa  giizal-maaa-‘u  wa  quzi-yal-‘amru  wasta-wat  ‘alal-Juu-diyyi  wa  qiila  bu’-dal-lil-qawmiz-zaalimiin.  (Part One-Fourth)

Commentary

                                                                

‘Ib-la-‘ii – (Swallow!), it is a feminine word of command, which has been derived from the word bal-‘un. Bal-‘un means “to swallow). Here; it aims “to imbibe the water, to absorb”.

‘Aqli-‘ii – (Stop!), it is also a feminine word of command from the word ‘aqlaa’, which has come out from the word qal-‘a. Qal-‘a means “to uproot from its place”. ‘Aqlaa’ means “to stop the work”.     

Giiza – (was made to subside), it is a past passive voice tense. Origin of this word is gay-zun, which means “to remove or disappear in the earth”. Here; it aims “to dry up and evaporate the water”.

Bu’-dan – (Begone), it is an origin which means “a far removal and to get away”. When it is kept in its form then it aims “a curse and to threaten”, as we say: Be off O rejected persons. Here, abhorrence from the wrongdoers has been disclosed; who were ruined but they did not refrain from their stubbornness.

It is commanded that the earth was ordered that it should stop causing to gush forth the water, and the sky was commanded that it should cease raining. After a few days, peaks of the mountains began to appear in the water and the ship of Noah (peace be upon him) came to rest upon a mount; named Al-Juudii. This hurricane finished the arrogant miscreants entirely. A sound echoed in the openness: A far removal for the wrongdoing folk.

It has not been explained in the Holy Qur’an that whether the storm had come over the entire earth or only in the hemisphere of Babel. It aims only to cause to understand that when wicked deeds of the wrongdoer nations increase more than enough, then the wrath of Allah Almighty ruins them, whether that destruction adopt any form, for example, famine or plague, flood or war. Therefore, every human being should fear from the wrath of God Almighty, and correct their conduct.

42.  And it sailed with them amid waves like mountains, and Noah called to his son – and he was standing aloof – O my son! Come ride with us, and be not with the disbelievers. 43.  He said: I shall betake me to some mountain that will save me from the water. He (Noah) said: This day there is none that saveth from the Commandment of Allah save him on whom He hath had mercy. And the wave came in between them, so he was among the drowned.

42.  Wa  hi-ya  tajrii  bihim  fii  mawjin-  kal-jibaal.  Wa  naadaa  Nuuhu-nib-nahuu  wa  kaana  fii  ma’-ziliny-yaa-bu-nayyar-kamma-‘anaa  wa  laa  takum-ma-‘al-Kaafiriin. 43.  Qaala  sa-‘aawiii  ‘ilaa  jaba-liny-ya’-simunii  minal-maaa’.  Qaala  laa  ‘aa-simal-yawma  min  ‘AmRillaahi  ‘illaa  mar-rahim.  Wa  haala  bayna-humal-mawju  fa- kaana  minal-  mugraqiin.

Commentary

                                                                

In this verse, the picture of last stage regarding causing to understand has been drawn. The water had been rising continuously. Son of Prophet Noah (peace be upon him) had been trying to save himself but he did not ride on the ship. Noah (peace be upon him) called to him: O my son! Come ride on the ship with us. He (the son) said: I shall mount on any high mountain but shall not leave fellowship of my nation.

Messenger Noah (peace be upon him) said: What is the power of any mountain before the Commandment of Allah Almighty that it may save someone? In such condition, there is only He; Who; if have mercy, then the life may be saved. They were still talking that suddenly, a wave came in between them, and the son of Noah (peace be upon him) drowned in the water like other disbelievers.

It is the last form of losing one’s senses. So much trust in the apparent things that one does not think about Him; Who is Creator of all things; it is the most extreme misfortune of the human being.
