Lesson
It has been described in these verses that
only God Almighty is Able to give the Guidance. If anyone else wishes to
misguide someone, that is not possible without the Will of Allah Almighty. O the
Children of Israel: you cannot extinguish that Light of Guidance with your
tricks, which Allah Almighty has put into the heart of any individual. Your
plans will become useless.
It has also been cleared in this verse that
the Jews make different kinds of plans and schemes against the Muslims due to
jealousy. They envy due to the reason that - why the Muslims are being given
such Divine Law of religion, Prophet-hood and Messenger-hood, which have been
bestowed earlier on the Children of Israel, and why other people are leading in
the religious effort and struggle overcoming upon them and they (the Muslims)
are accusing them before God Almighty.
The Jews used to claim that only their nation
was monopolist of the Divine Law. Torah was revealed upon them. Lot of Prophets
(peace be upon Them) came out of them after Moses (peace be upon Him). Then
what connection has the illiterate and ignorant Arabs with excellence and
bounty? Why a Messenger has been born from them? But it is visible that due to
their jealousy, those predictions of Torah could not be wrong, in which it has
been mentioned that God Almighty will bring a Prophet (grace, glory, blessings
and peace be upon him) like Moses (peace be upon him) out of the Children of
Ishmael (the brothers of the Children of Israel) (peace be upon them). He will
put His Word (Holy Qur-’aan) into his
mouth (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him). Therefore, the Children
of Ishmael (peace be upon him) got this Wealth and in the field of knowledge,
bounty and religious efforts and struggles, They did not lead the Children of
Israel only but the entire world.
After that, it has been described that Allah Almighty is All-Embracing,
All-Knowing and of Infinite Bounty. There is no
shortage in His treasures. And He knows that - to whom the greatness should be
given. Distributing Prophet-hood, Divine Law of the Religion, the Belief and every
kind of favor is in His Hand only. He bestows what He Wishes, when He Wishes,
where He wishes and to whom He wishes.
