Commentary
At
that time, when Holy Qur’an was
revealed, nearly entire people of the world had gone back from the Way of Allah
Almighty. When the Messenger of Allah Almighty (grace, glory, blessings and
peace be upon him) began to explain the real Revelations of Noble Qur’an, it was very troublesome for them
to give up their wrong path, because being too much habitual of it; they had
seen their own death in this new system and organization, whereas the secret of
real life was hidden in it.
The
people of Makkah used to criticize the commands of Holy Qur’an. Instead of understanding the
actual matter, their only job was to object. The Commentators have explained
that when the Holy Qur’an forbade
from eating the meat of any dead animal dying naturally and determined it
unlawful for eating, hereupon, the infidels of Makkah turned up
their nose and knitted the eyebrows according to their habit, and from them,
those people, who used to consider themselves more wise, they said: it is
strange that the animal, which is killed by Allah, is unlawful for eating,
whereas, which is slaughtered by a mankind himself, is lawful.
It
was described in the previous verses for warning as its preface and reply that
those people, who mislead from the Way of Allah, say about the apparent matter
by making reform. But there is nothing in their trickery sayings. The fact is
that Lawful and Unlawful is based on the Command of Allah Almighty.
The
actual foundation of their objection is that they consider that Allah Almighty
should be bound of their wishes, and as their idols say them nothing, they do
as they desire, like this Allah Almighty should not give them order (Let’s flee
to God). False foundation of their thoughts was disclosed in the previous
verses.
It
has been described very clearly in this verse that “to order is just the Work
of Allah Almighty and to obey His Command is the duty of the entire mankind”.
It
is commanded that Allah Almighty knows them best, who err from His Way, as well
as them also, who are rightly guided and go straight forward on His prescribed
Way. Erroneous way cannot be correct due to their false and destructive thinking.
The wrong is always wrong. Therefore, you should not care the sayings of the
stupid people.
It
is wrong to say that the animal, which dies itself, is killed by Allah Almighty
and which is slaughtered according to the instructions of Allah Almighty, is
killed by the human being. Allah Almighty kills every soul, whether that is
from the mankind or animal kind.
Moreover,
because the name of Allah Almighty is mentioned at the time of slaughtering any
lawful animal, so due to the Grace of His name, it becomes lawful for eating
the meat of that particular animal only. Accordingly, if any animal is
slaughtered by mentioning the name of any other than Allah Almighty, that is
unlawful too, whether that is slaughtered in accord with the prescribed
instructions. For this reason, being lawful is only with the name of Allah
Almighty and His commandment.
