Commentary
It was discussed in the lesson of previous verse
that Islam does not approve to agree the people for embracing Islam by showing
them amazing miracles. There is a reply of disbeliever’s question/command in
this verse and the next to this verse, that the Message of Allah Almighty should be brought
down by an Angel (peace be upon Him) before their eyes.
It is commanded that if an Angel (peace be upon Him)
is sent down, even then, they denied believing by making evasions, as the fear
comes from their perverseness, then it would not be good for them, because it
is impossible that they may live safe and sound for a sometime as disbelievers
after arrival of the Angel (peace be upon Him) before them. At that time, if
they will disbelieve, they will be destroyed without any further delay. There
will be no form of postponement of their destruction.
Therefore, they should take it a blessing of Allah Almighty that the Angel
(peace be upon Him) comes secretly only unto the Messenger (grace, glory,
blessings and peace be upon Him) and conveys the Message of Allah Almighty up to the people by
means of Him (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him), value of which,
these people do not know.
It is by the fortune of not coming the Angle (peace
be upon Him) openly, that they are living still, notwithstanding their
Infidelity and denial. And their punishment is being postponed. Otherwise, it
is the end of the story, after appearance of the Angel (peace be upon Him).
There can be three forms of the Angel’s appearance:
1.
He (peace be upon
Him) can come in His original form.
2.
He (peace be upon
Him) may appear in the form of any natural sight, for instance; flood,
earthquake, dust, a storm of wind or rain etc.
3.
He (peace be upon
Him) may appear as a mankind.
The human being has not endurance to see Him (peace
be upon Him) in case of His first form. Only the Messenger of Allah Almighty, Muhammad (grace,
glory, blessings and peace be upon Him) saw the Angel Gabriel (peace be upon
Him) twice in His actual form, due to which, a horror prevailed over the Messenger
(grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him). If someone else will see, his
gall-bladder will be cracked due to fear.
In the second form too, if the people believed
timely after knowing the signs and changed from past evils, perhaps they would
be saved, as the folk of Prophet Jonah (peace be upon Him) was saved, otherwise
surely, they will be ruined.
