38. And there is not a moving animal in the
earth, nor a flying creature flying on two wings, but they are genera like
unto you. We have neglected nothing in the Book (of Our Decrees); then unto
their Lord they will be gathered.

Commentary
Asking
for any portent from the Messenger of Allah Almighty (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon
Him) by the idolaters of Makkah did not mean that really they were
desirous of believing. But they wished that the portent of any such peculiar
thing should be demanded, from fulfilling of which, the Messenger (grace,
glory, blessings and peace be upon Him) might become helpless and give up
preaching of Islam, so that they might live their own way of life, of which
they had been addicted, and enjoy reveling according to their desires.
It
was commanded in the previous verses: O Messenger! Do not hope that they will
believe by observing the open portent. Their purpose is that they may keep
anyhow their present condition up i.e. idol-worshipping, infidelity and
disbelieving. Demanding a portent is only for evading, otherwise, those
Revelations are sufficient for the wise people, which We have revealed. There
is no need of more clear portents than them. Many of them do not understand
this matter, but there are enough signs in the verse of today’s lesson for
those, who wish to understand.
It
is commanded that there are hundreds kinds of creature like moving animals in
the earth, flying creature flying on two wings in the air and the creature of
the sea. Every creature of them is as such a nation, as human beings. We have
established separate principles of living in the world for every kind of
nation. And We have neglected nothing in the Book (of Our Decrees). At the end,
they entire will be gathered unto their Lord Almighty. He will treat them in
the manner, which will be the demand of His Wisdom and Mercy.
It
can be understood from this discussion that a separate way of living has been
established in the world for every nation of the creatures. How much sense is
required for understanding that particular way for any particular nation, has
been given by Allah Almighty.
That sense is sufficient to know those portents.
Likewise,
according to this rule such Revelations, Tokens and Portents have also been
established for human being, which can be known by the mankind’s wisdom and
sense easily, and a man can go straight way by observing them. These people
demand rare portents, for instance; they say: Cause to flow a spring before us
by tearing the land, or Rise on the sky in front of our eyes, bring down a Book
from there and put It before us etc.
The
sense and wisdom stands useless in their recognition. Making the sense useless
is against the human nature. Portents are revealed during all times in
accordance with the improvement of human wisdom. Present time is the most
improved time of human sense, so the portents have been sent down according to
it.
