Lesson
It has been told in these verses that only Allah
Almighty may give the Guidance. If anybody wishes to misguide someone, that is
not possible without the Command of Allah Almighty. O the children of Israel:
you cannot extinguish that Light of Guidance with your tricks, which Allah Almighty
has put into the heart of any person. Your plans will become useless.
It has also been cleared in this verse that the
Jews make different kinds of plans and schemes against the Muslims due to
jealousy. They envy due to the reason that why the Muslims are being given such
Divine Law of religion, Prophet-hood and Messenger-hood, which have been
bestowed earlier to the children of Israel, and why other people are leading in
the religious effort and struggle overcoming upon them and they (the Muslims) are
accusing them before God Almighty.
The Jews used to claim that only their nation was
monopolist of the Divine Law. Torah was revealed upon them. Lot of Prophets
(peace be upon them) came out of them after Moses (peace be upon him). Then
what connection with excellence and bounty has the illiterate and ignorant
Arabs? Why a Messenger has been born out of them? But it is visible that due to
their jealousy, those predictions of Torah could not be wrong, in which it has
been mentioned that Allah Almighty will bring a Prophet (grace, glory,
blessings and peace be upon him) like Moses (peace be upon him) out of the
children of Ishmael (the brothers of the children of Israel) (peace be upon
them). He will put His Word (Holy Qur’an) into his mouth (grace, glory, blessings
and peace be upon him). Therefore, the children of Ishmael (peace be upon him)
got this Wealth and in the field of knowledge, bounty and religious efforts and
struggles, They did not lead the children of Israel only but the entire world.
After that it has been described that Allah Almighty is All-Embracing, All-Knowing and
of Infinite Bounty. There is no
shortage in His treasures. And He Knows that to whom greatness should be given.
To distribute Prophet-hood, Divine Law of Religion, Belief and each kind of
favor is in His Hand only. He Bestows what He Wishes, when He Wishes, where He
wishes and to whom He wishes.
