A short statement
on Chapter three
Surah ‘Aali- ‘Imraan (The Family of Imran -3),
BisMillaahir-Rahmaanir-Rahiim
In the name of God, the
Beneficent, the Merciful
Lesson
Beginning of Surah ‘Aali-‘Imraan
was with these words: Allah! There is no God save Him, the Alive, and the lives
of all living beings are firm due to Him. He revealed the Inspirational
Scriptures for the Guidance of human beings. After all, by sending Holy Qur’aan, He finalized them. He fixed a
touchstone to test “The True and the False”. Some verses of Holy Qur’aan are so much obvious and bright
that every individual can understand them easily, but some are those, meanings
of which cannot be known by everyone. We should believe in all of them and have
faith that their meanings are quite right and these entire are from our Lord.
Then, it has been described that the heart of the human being
inclines more unto his wife and members of his family, and keeping safe of enough
wealth and chosen things, whereas these all things are inconstant. Special consideration
should be given only to please our Creator and acquire betterment of the
Hereafter. Desiring Paradise after death is the best object. Allah Almighty has
determined Islam as the religion of the entire mankind of the world. Alas! Some
people turn away their affections from it.
After that, the birth of Mary (May Allah be pleased with her) and
her breeding, the birth of Prophet Jesus (peace be upon Him), attempt for
correction of the nation by Him (peace be upon Him) and His miracles etc. were
mentioned. Then the Christians were commanded that they should reap advantage
from His teachings, and obey the commandments of the last of all the Prophets,
Muhammad (grace, blessings and peace be on Him) and the final Scripture, Holy Qur’aan, brought by Him, because their
own Scripture, Gospel is witness of Their Truth. Along with it, it is commanded
that Abraham (peace be upon Him) was neither Jew and nor Christian but a
Muslim.
Afterwards, a useful Message has been conveyed for the Jews and
the Christians that they should give up slavery of one another and bow before
Allah Almighty collectively. If they do not accept this Message, then the
Muslims should remember it and hold these principles fast being unanimous. They
should give up quarreling with one another. Thus they will become the best
nation. Observing them, other people will begin to be saved from the evil deeds
and choose good works.
Then, attention of Muslims have been drawn towards the Battle of Badr that in it, their success was a
forceful Blandishment of God’s Dignity. Success in it without Support of Allah
Almighty was not possible. After that, it is commanded that usury is forbidden
and they should be saved from it. Most probably, the commandment about escaping
from usury/interest has come here due to the reason that – as Muslims reaped
advantage from success in this Battle, like this, they will acquire benefits by
giving up usury. And the entire human beings will be saved from destruction.
Next, incidents of the Battle of ‘Uhud have been narrated, which loss was suffered by the Muslims,
reason of that was: Commandment of the Messenger (grace, blessings and peace be
on Him) was not obeyed properly. It has been narrated that behavior of the
Hypocrites, which they adopted in this Battle and which was cause of damage to
Islam and injury to Muslims, was very bad.
Then Muslims have been directed that way of life of the Christians
and the Jews is wrong and objectionable. They should not follow them. They will
suffer from their side. They should mind their own business with patience and
tolerance. And they should seek help of God Almighty by means of supplicating. Then
method of supplicating has been taught and caused to understand that they
should not be deceived from apparent prosperity of the Infidels. Their last
abode is Fire of the Hell. However, those people of the Scripture, who will
believe and do good works, they will be given good rewards. At the end, the
Muslims have been advised: Be patient and stand still before your enemies. Continue
to be prepared against them. Do your duty to Allah Almighty and ward off evil. It
contains your success.
