Lesson
Hudan – Guidance), this word comes in
the beginning of Surah ‘Al-Baqarah
(2:2) and it means “to show the correct path, to guide, to carry on the straightway.
The word yahDii
has also been derived from it, which is its resembling tense. Habita –
to be wasted, it is past tense, which has come out from the word Habt. Habt means “to be ruined, to be
demolished”.
It has been described in the
verses before this, that Prophet Abraham (peace be upon Him) delivered the
lesson to His nation regarding Oneness of God Almighty. It was the same lesson,
which was taught by The Prophets and Messengers earlier to Him (peace be upon
Them) during their own times to their own folks.
Many Prophets were born in the
Children of Abraham (peace be upon Them) for teaching this lesson. These all
were chosen, respectable and accepted People, Who were favored by Allah
Almighty than entire other people in the world. It has been commanded in this
verse: If anyone desires to see the pattern of guidance bestowed by Allah,
should see These People (peace be upon Them). He will know clearly that Allah
Almighty guides toward the right path out of His bondmen, whom He wills.
Listen to Me carefully now: It is
the Straight Path which is necessary to be believed in the life of this world!
God Almighty is One and He is original Omnipotent. It is called Unity, Oneness
of God. Opposite to it, the person, who does not have faith in the Unity, is an
idolater; whether his apparent care is much glittering and graceful. And no
good act of any idolater will be acceptable on the Day of Resurrection.
If those Bondmen of Allah Almighty
(Prophets – peace be upon Them), who have been described above, had ascribed
partners to Allah (God forbid), then whether they would have done very much
good works, were not useful for Them (peace be upon Them) and they would have
been from the good for nothing people. This decision of Holy Quran will be the
Speaker in the Hereafter that no individual or nation can reach the prosperity
which does not believe in Allah Almighty or have faith that some other things
are able to cause to gain their end. Success is only for those people, who
believe that only Allah Almighty is their worshipped and Protector.
Those people, who bow before
others except Allah Almighty, whether those are idols or great people, stars or
moon etc. or their lustful wishes, certainly after a few days in the world or
after death, they will understand that they are quite stupid and empty-handed. And
perception of their failure and grief will not give them up of anywhere.
Those people who have forgotten
Allah Almighty and consider: By chance our business will be managed automatically,
they are stupid entirely. At the end, they would have business with Allah
Almighty only. And if they did not open their eyes in this world, then surely
those will be opened at that time, when “the death bells” will call them, and
entire worldly things will be useless for them. With effect from that time,
there will be no friend of them except sorrow, regret and repentance till the eternity
of the eternities.
