Commentary
‘
When
Prophet Shu-aib (peace be upon Him) began to advise the people
of Madian and the sweet words spoken by Him began to touch the
hearts of listeners, then astray people of His nation established places, where
people used to meet on the coming and going paths, and began to prevent the
people to see Prophet Shu-aib (peace be upon Him) and hear
Him. Even that, they began to threaten them and find faults with the Path,
shown by Him. And they began also to persuade to keep their footing on their
bad path. Then Prophet Shu-aib (peace be upon Him) commanded
them: Behold! Don’t do so, you should neither blockade the path of people and
nor prevent them by threatening from their coming unto Me and that way of
bargaining, which Allah Almighty has determined, and nor try to finish them,
who have believed in Allah Almighty and are ready to obey His Commands. And you
should not pick holes in the Straight Path willing or not willing. And you
should not stir up to give it up by creating doubts of various sorts regarding
the religion in the hearts of the people.
Satan
had undertaken from the beginning to destroy the human being at every cost. The
history of humankind is witness that the Devil did not leave it unfinished by
trying His best. When and where He got any opportunity, He tried to mislead the
innocent mankind from the straight and simple way.
The
Devil knows the matters very well, in which areas the good is for mankind. This
attempt is easy for Him that somehow He should not let human being do good
works. He tries to misguide the people from the straight path towards
altogether crooked way always. He knows that goodness of human being is hidden
in it that he/she should believe that Allah Almighty is his/her Creator, God
and Lord. He/she should recognize the Messengers of God (peace be upon Them)
and obey Them and he/she should ensure that: If I shall not obey God’s
Messengers, certainly I will be punished at last, due to disobeying the
Messengers.
Satan
says to the human being: Allah is nothing, everything; which exists; that is;
you and your own strength, so, you should stretch out yourself and your
strength, as much as it may be possible. Everything for you is; this world. You
should not listen to the Messengers (peace be upon Them). They ensnare you in
labor; willing or not willing, and prevent you from ease and comfort of the
world, and as its retaliation, they promise for the Garden, which has neither
been by anyone nor heard.
Whenever any group of the Devil’s
disciples holds command of any place, that group runs government according to
Satan’s instructions, which is: Keep established authority. Get your words
acknowledged by the people. Do neither listen to the Messengers (peace be upon
Them) and Their followers, nor let others hear. Compel the people by threat or
greed; to obey you.
