Commentary
It
had even gone through the last lesson that the idolaters used to say, after
hearing the miracles and portents of earlier Prophets and Messengers (peace be
upon Them), for putting off the matter: We wish to see any extraordinary
portent; i.e. if this hill –Safaa will become of gold, certainly we
shall believe. Allah Almighty replied to them previously in this Chapter (Surah):
We do not sanction to make them believers in such a manner. We already sent
down unto them Our Revelations; and bestowed them sufficient sense and wisdom
for their understanding. Now that sense and wisdom is required to be examined;
so that We may observe: whether it recognizes Allah Almighty after looking
these portents or otherwise. It has been described about that matter again here
that there is no deficiency of Portents with Allah Almighty. Who will have the
Portents, if He does not have?
Allah
Almighty commands: O Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him)!
You had been prepared for praying, as they said that this hill should become of
gold. The Muslims began also to consider their sayings as correct that if this
hill became of gold, certainly they would believe. Absolutely, they have been
swearing such a solemn strong oath that if there comes unto them a portent,
they will believe therein. How will they deny then? But you would have to know
that, if they did not believe after seeing such portents, then according to
certain rules, Divine punishment will be sent on them surely. And these people
have been entangled in the love of their old traditions and customs in such a
manner that it seems that they will never give up them. After that, they will
search any other pretext of disbelieving. Therefore, you should say to them: Allah
Almighty has all the Portents, which you demand, and those can be with Him
only. Moreover, if you disbelieved after that then you will live nowhere.
Then
Allah Almighty addresses the Muslims: what do you know about them? Shall they
surely believe after looking the Portents? The love of those old traditions has
settled in their hearts, upon which they are firm, and due to which, they have
been reaping advantage of the world. Asking for the Portents is a pretext only.
And they have been swearing, reason of which is that they are unable to guess
the Divine Power of Allah Almighty. And they consider that such Portents like “making
the entire hill of gold” are impossible.
Therefore,
nobody can say that after looking such powerful Portents, shall they believe
certainly. Their condition is pronouncing also that they will evade it by
saying that the Portents are a charm and magic etc. and then to continue going
on their own polytheistic way, they will try to make any other excuse.
It
is known from this lesson that creation of the world is of such type that all
of the believers and disbelievers (Muslims, Infidels, Idolaters and Atheists
etc.) will live here mutually including such Portents, by observing which of
them, the wise people adopt the Path of Islam.
