Lessons from Suratul- ‘Anfaal have been over.
Before proceeding forth, we should have to review and think: What does it teach
us?
It is the actual aim of Islam that the entire human beings of
the world should be gathered in one community and established their fundamental
thoughts at one point. The life of Muhammad, Messenger of God Almighty (grace,
glory, blessings and peace be upon Him) in Makkah, His conduct with
the people and Chapters of Holy Qur’an; revealed in Makkah (all)
support the same thing. In the terms of circumstances, His life in Makkah was
not eminent from the life of common people. His employments and engagements for
getting the necessities of life were the same as of the people of that period;
for example; labor, working, grazing the cattle or trade etc.
However, He (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him)
behaved the people in such a way which can be of any most noble person of the
world. Meeting every individual with open heart, neither deceiving and nor
cheating anyone, taking care of the relatives, looking after the poor, widows
and orphans, helping those who are in trouble, control over wishes, being a
human; regard of self-respect, dignity and honor in all conditions, trying to
fix the dignity of mankind by understanding it well, to hate those works which
are against the humanity, not to bow humbly before anything of the world; and
consider that the human being is superior to all creatures and that: the head
can be bowed before Him only Who is most Superior to the human being (The Creator
of the entire universe), trust and good-well – these all things had taken place
in His (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him) nature. And such habits
which have been settled down in the heart; are called Khulq (philanthropy,
civility and hospitality). Khulq can be good as well as bad
also. But His (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him) all manners were
best. When inspiration of Holy Qur’an began, it supported
these good habits too; which had become His (grace, glory, blessings and peace
be upon Him) Khulq. And the truth is that mutual misunderstanding
of the human beings can be removed by adopting these habits. The people
of Makkah accepted that He (grace, glory, blessings and peace
be upon Him) was at the highest stage in the terms of Khulq.
Anyhow, the people of Makkah could not agree
upon the teachings of Holy Qur’an, and they sacrificed the benefits
of common people upon their a little personal benefit. It is understandable
here that human religion is not filled in with force, but it arises from within
the mankind. A perfect man runs upon that way naturally which has been fixed
for the humankind according to his anatomy. The Messenger of God Almighty
(grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him) chose that way Himself from His
child-hood, which was in accordance with the human religion.
Therefore, the religion is the same, which Messenger of God
Almighty (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him) produced before the
world by means of His habits, sayings and deeds, as though; He (grace, glory,
blessings and peace be upon Him) had already chosen the way of religion on His
own accord before the revelation of Holy Qur’an and hated
those things which are against the human religion.
When His (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him)
religion became matured, manners were manifested clearly and all people gave
evidence that He was the best mankind, then revelation of Holy Qur’an was
begun, and that Path on which Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be
upon Him) was going; and those manners which He had adopted, Holy Qur’an saved
them in words for ever, and the Way of His deeds was clarified and determined.
And the seal of certification was affixed on His morals and habits.
It is proved by the verse of Holy Qur’an “’Innaka
la-‘alaa khuluqin ‘aziim (You are found on a very brilliant
philanthropy). And it is known also from His (grace, glory, blessings and peace
be upon Him) Saying that someone asked from Aishah (may God be
pleased with Her): Describe something about the Khulq of the
Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him). She (may God be
pleased with Her) answered: His (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon
Him) Khulq is Holy Qur’an. And it is proved from
the verse ‘Atii-‘Ullaaha wa ‘atii-‘ur-Rasuula and many other
verses of Holy Qur’an like this; that Messenger of Allah
Almighty (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him) was already firm on
the religion and the human philanthropy (Khulq). The Word of God
Almighty attested and certified it, and strengthened His Belief (Iman)
and commanded: Organize your deeds now from this Scripture. That Path on which
You are going, is Straight and True.
