Lesson
Lessons from Surah ‘Anfaal are over. Before going ahead, we should have to look
concise into it 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 (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.
