Lesson
‘al-Hawaa-riyyuuna – (it is plural of Hawaari
which means companion, friend, disciple, helper etc), the philosophers of the
religion have different view about the ‘al-Hawaa-riyyuun. General opinion about it is that at first two persons out of
the children of Israel believed in Prophet Jesus (peace be upon him). They were
washer-men. Due to washing the clothes, they were called Hawaarii. Prophet Christ (peace be upon him) described them, “Come
and learn from me (peace be upon him), how to purify the hearts”. They said,
“We are standing in the service”. Therefore, they were entitled Hawaarii.
When the
children of Israel disbelieved in reply to the invitation and preaching of
Prophet Jesus Christ (peace be upon him) and he (peace be upon him) knew that
those people would never accept his religion. But they were thinking to give
him pain and trouble, then he announced, “Who will be my helpers in the cause
of Allah”? Those ‘al-Hawaa-riyyuun (companions) answered to the prophet Jesus
(peace be upon him), “We will be your helpers in the religion of Allah. We
believe in Allah, and bear O Jesus our witness that we have surrendered for the
cause of Allah. We shall follow the Messenger (peace be upon him) of God
Almighty. Our Lord! We believe in that which You have revealed and we follow
him whom You have sent, so enroll us among those who witness (to the truth).
Makarun – (scheme, plan, gait), the children of Israel
began different kinds of conspiracies and secret schemes against Prophet Jesus
(peace be upon him). To the end that they poisoned the ears of then present
king, that this person Jesus) was a mutineer of the government and wanted to
change the Torah (Scripture) (Allah forbid). The King ordered to arrest Jesus
Christ (peace be upon him). At the other hand Allah Almighty schemed Himself,
which will be discussed in the next lesson. Without any doubt, Allah Almighty is
the best of schemers. None can break it.
