Quran Chapter 4-97 to 99 (Pt-5, Stg-1) (L-586) - درس قرآن
Command of immigration
for the oppressed
Suratun-Nisaaa’ (The Women) – Chapter – 4)
BisMillaahir-Rahmaanir-Rahiim
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
97. Lo! As for those whom the angels take
(in death) while they wrong themselves, (the angels) will ask: In what were
ye engaged? They will say: We were oppressed in the land. (The angels) will
say: Was not Allah’s earth spacious that ye could have migrated therein? As
for such, their habitation will be Hell. And what an evil journey’s end.
98. Except the feeble among men, and the
women, and the children, who are unable to devise a plan and are not shown a
way-
99. As for such, it may be that Allah
will pardon them. And Allah is Ever-Clement, Forgiving.

Commentary
It is the abstract of above
mentioned verses that after embracing Islam and believing in Holy Qur’an as a Guide, dwelling calmly does
not have any sense. Those persons have been related in these verses with
evil-doers, that is to say; tyrants for themselves, who keep belief in their
hearts, but do not act upon the orders of Holy Qur’an fairly. They are spoiling their own. The Angels (peace be
upon them) will ask from such people at the time of their death, “While truth
of Holy Qur’an was manifested upon
you, then why are you dying empty-handed today”? Why do you not have good deeds
with you? Then their eyes will be opened. They will not be able to compose any
reply. Lastly they will say, “While we were suppressed from others, then what
would we have to do? We did not have power to oppose those people. We were
weak, old and helpless”. Then the Angels (peace be upon them) will say, “What a
strange thing? The earth created by Allah Almighty was lying too much spacious.
You would have left that land of tyrant people and immigrated to any place of
peace. There, you could get opportunity to act upon the religious teachings
without hindrance. At this stage, they would be unable to reply because it was
their own fault. It has been commanded here that abode of such people is the Hell,
which is the worst place for living. However, ill men, women and children, who
neither can think about any plan, nor they know about any path and nor they are
able to work, their excuse can be accepted and hopefully Allah Almighty will forgive them.
