Lesson
‘al- ‘Islaam – ( believing in the religion of Allah, obedience), literal
meaning of Islam is ‘to deliver oneself over’. Due to this respect this
religion causes to say Islam, because a Muslim affirms to bow his neck before
the orders of Allah Almighty and entrust himself completely to One Most High
God Almighty, as though Islam is the name of “Accepting” and Muslim-hood (Mussulmani) as “Obedience).
Diinun – This word has two meanings,
a. Retaliation
b. Religion
It means
that method of meditation and action which is foundation for consideration and
deeds of a person and nation. The Way of life which Allah Almighty has liked
for His servants (Human beings), that is Islam, that is to say; subjection and
obedience, whose perfect and last form clarifies in the world by Prophet Muhammad
(grace, glory, blessings and peace of Allah be upon him).
In reality,
all former Prophets (peace be upon them) brought the same religion named Islam.
But in this regard which perfect in all respect, collective and universal
commands and guidelines have been delivered by the last Messenger of Allah
Almighty (grace, glory, blessings and peace of Allah be upon him), those have
preference in many ways from ancient religious laws. Therefore, these were called
with the name of Islam in a special color. However, it has been proclaimed in
this verse before specially Christians of Syria (Najraan) and commonly before the entire world that religion is only
the name of one thing, that is, the person should surrender himself to Allah
Almighty whole heartedly, and whatever order is delivered by Him, he should
obey it without any hesitation.
Now those people
who say the Prophet Jesus Christ (peace be upon him) as son of Allah Almighty
(Let us flee to Allah), eat pork, slaughter the Prophets (peace be upon them), try
to remove the true religion despite the good news from Prophet Moses and Jesus (peace
be upon them), envy the true Prophet (glory, grace, blessings and peace be upon
them), Have these people any right to say themselves followers of religion of
Abraham (peace be upon them)?
For
perfect example good attitude of Prophet Abraham (peace be upon him), auspicious
lives of Prophet Christ and Moses (peace be upon them) and in the last, very
sacred life of last Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace of Allah be
upon him) are complete role models for the humankind. Banishment of Prophet
Abraham (peace be upon him), opposing Nimrud, leaving alone his (peace be upon
them) innocent child and wife in the wilderness and without water valley for
pleasure of Allah Almighty, being prepared to sacrifice his (peace be upon them)
son Ishmael in the Way of Allah Almighty. All these things enlighten his (peace
be upon him) activeness for pleasure of Allah Almighty.
Enduring
torture of enemies of God Almighty by the Messenger of Islam (grace, glory,
blessings and peace be upon him), migrating from his native land, fighting in the
Path of Allah Almighty, clarify perfect subjection and obedience. These are the
great and holy persons, who are imitable for human beings in all respect and to
follow them is called Islam and obedience. May Allah Almighty make us able to
do so. Aameen.
