Lesson
It was told in the previous lesson
that the human being is confounded at that time, when any affliction comes and
none can help him, whereas, he would have taken warning from a little accidents
and turned towards Allaah Almighty
immediately.
In this lesson, the attention has
been drawn towards the people of old times and commanded that the people of
present time should take a lesson by considering thoughtfully their
circumstances: It is the fixed rule to admonish the humankind that at first, Allaah Almighty sends His Prophets and
Messengers (peace be upon Them) among the people.
When the people neither incline towards
the Prophet or Messenger (peace be upon Him) and nor listen to the Revelations
revealed upon Him (peace be upon Him), then tribulations and adversities are
sent down for them, so that they might lean before Allaah Almighty hopelessly and grow humble, knowing His Power.
Even hereupon, the stupidity, obstinacy
and perverseness of the human beings harden their hearts and Satan uses to
produce evil things of the world making them beautiful in front of the people.
It is commanded: O Messenger
(grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him)! We certainly sent Our
Messengers (peace be upon Them) unto peoples that were before Thee. When the
people did not obey Them fairly, then some tribulation and adversity were
revealed upon them in order that they might grow humble. But on the contrary,
their hearts were hardened and the Devil produced before them their evil deeds
as good works, and they were entangled into them being careless entirely from Allaah Almighty.
It is known clearly from these
verses that whenever people are entangled in evil deeds and bad habits, and
disobey the Messengers’ advice, then famine, plague, storms and quakes etc. are
sent down, for the purpose that they should bow before Allaah Almighty and beg pardon of Allaah Almighty.
