Commentary
It was stated
previously that there are many things in the world for them who think, from
which they can get correct results by means of correct meditation. They can
know that one should engage his attention unto the charming things of the world
only as much that his heart should not be averse from useful things. Moreover,
actual attention should remain unto them, because comfort and ease, tastes and
relishes of the world are temporary only. Wealth and property, honor and dignity
etc. are the things of coming and going – some- time those are with me and
sometimes with you. The mind should be engaged in those things which will stay
with the mankind all the time and should be base of everlasting joy. What are
these things? These things cannot be attained by the human being from anywhere
else. These can be learned only from the Messengers (peace be upon Them). Their
provisions are held in the Scriptures of God Almighty. If really, the humankind
is in search of perpetual peace, endless ease, satisfaction and pleasure, he
should bear the Sayings (Commands) of God’s last Messenger; Muhammad (grace,
glory, blessings and peace be upon Him) in his mind. He should begin reciting
the Holy Qur’an with full commitment and determination, and
obey Its all Commands unhesitatingly. Alas! There are innumerable people who
call everyone towards the world but only some individuals are who invite unto
the Holy Qur’an. Producers of worldly things have goods; ready to
give with immediate profit, whereas, those who call to arrange the Hereafter,
have mere promises, only warnings and hope of future advantage. The law of the
people of the world is “A bird in hand is worth two in the bush”, whereas;
behavior of the believers is “worshiping God continuously with patience and
being hopeful of Allah’s Bounty. They sacrifice existing benefits in search of
His Willingness; and give everything in His Way, whichever they possess. Can
anybody think that someone will incline unto Allah Almighty in such difficulty?
Really; it is very difficult.
It has been
commanded in this verse that changing the heart from worldly casual benefits
and inclining towards the benefits of the Hereafter is not in the power of any
human being. It can be done by Allah Almighty only. If He lets someone
entangled in the world and does not guide unto the Straight Path, then there is
no such individual who has power to guide him.
From this
verse, an Established and Prescribed Order of God Almighty is known about this
matter that “Many Signs and Tokens have been produced before every individual
in the world besides the Messengers (peace be upon Them) and the Scripture of
God Almighty. None has been forced. If any individual wants to remain entangled
in the worldly deceptions and is unable to see above it, Allah Almighty will
leave him as he wishes, and he will be wandering blindly in his contumacy, and
at last; he will die. His wealth, power, dignity, force, pomp and show even
that; nothing will be helpful to save him.
Here; it is easy to say that the Hereafter is
nothing. Reward and punishment, the Heaven and the Hell – all are self-made
talks, but if these are proved true, then which is the abode of those people
who deny and ignore? Allah Almighty save us on the Day of Resurrection from
this affliction and repentance; and guide us in the world.
