Commentary
As
a reply to the supplication of Jesus (peace be upon Him), Allah Almighty commanded: I
shall send it (the Table Spread) down for you, but bear it in mind that whoso
will disbelieve of you afterward, him surely will I punish with a punishment
wherewith I shall not punish any of My creatures.
After
this, there is no description in the Holy Qur’aan whether the
Table Spread of Food was sent down or otherwise, because only those matters
have been mentioned in the Holy Qur’aan, which have any guidance
for the humankind. A very useful matter has been explained in the supplication
of Jesus (peace be upon Him) and its reply, which needs special attention of
the human being. It could not be decided till today that whether the Table
Spread with Food was sent down or not. Some persons say: That was sent down but
the people did not thank God. Those people were punished and that was stopped sending
down. Some of them have opinion: The people frightened after hearing the reply
of the supplication of Jesus (peace be upon Him) and they took back their
request.
We have been taught many useful
matters in it. At first, if the Messengers (peace be upon Them) are helpless before Allah Almighty, then what is the
position of those friends (saints) of Allah Almighty, who are called ‘Awliyaaa’. We
should understand properly the difference between the Creator and the creature.
The Messengers (peace be upon Them) and ‘Awliyaaa’ (Saints)
(may God be Kind upon them) all are servants of Allah Almighty and He is The Ruler over all of the
creatures. The Servants can supplicate only. Accepting or rejecting the
supplication is in the Power of Allah Almighty.
The aim from it is to falsify the claim of the Christians that “Jesus (peace be
upon Him) is son of God (God Forbid). And we would have to learn from it that
there is much difference between Allah
Almighty (God) and the servant. Besides this, there is another
lesson to be learnt that the human being should earn the wealth by those ways,
which have been determined lawful, and for this purpose everyone must have to do
at least some labor. One should not try or wish to get sustenance, in a state
of ease and comfort, by supplications and uncommon ways etc., because it is not
easy to be thankful to Him and the end of being thankless is not other than His
wrath. And the biggest wrath is that the mankind becomes proud, Satan or mere
animal.
