Lesson - 2
A formula for passing a successful
life in this world has been signified in this verse for the Muslims. If the
believers will act upon this formula, neither they will ever fail and nor go astray
from the Straight Path. This Speech is for the Messenger of Allaah
Almighty (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him), whereas the lesson,
hidden in it, is being taught to the entire nation.
This is such lesson, which will be
a firm Code of Life for
the Muslims in each condition and time till the Day of Judgment. If
ever, they gave up acting upon it (God forbid), then they will live in the
middle of nowhere and their national existence will be wiped out like invalid
character. It can be understood clearly from this verse that the Muslims should
never turn away even a hair’s breadth from SabiiLIllaah i.e. the Path of
God Almighty.
It is necessary for every Muslim
to understand first that the mankind
is a passenger in the world. Coming in the world means that the human
being has stood out from his home and native country. Now he has to finish this
journey by way destination. The
end of this journey is “Death”. Death means; it is the end of this world’s journey and the mankind has
arrived at his residence. From birth to death, he has to cross over a very long and wide field.
The name of this field is ‘the world’. After death, he will enter in his home
country. Name of that home country is “the Doomsday, the next world”. At first,
he will have to pass
through the stages of “the Grave, the General Resurrection, the Lamentation,
reckoning of Accounts, the Bridge over which the righteous will pass to Heaven,
and the sinner and evildoer will drop into the Fire of Hell”. Then he
will reach his home, which will be either Paradise or Hell. The Paradise is the
place of comfort, whereas the Hell is the place of restlessness.
If the human being desires to
reach direct to the Paradise, then a Path has been fixed for him in the world. This
Path has been prescribed by Allah Almighty and for its acquaintance; He has
sent His Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him) with His
last Word “Holy Qur’an”. The meaning of going astray from this Path is that the
humankind left the Straight Path and entered in the dark forest. Now he doesn’t
know; whether he will die; being entangled in the thorny bushes and trees or in
any marsh, and what will happen with him in the next stages of death, and what
will be exposed to imminent danger in the Hell.
The Straight Path is called “Siraatal-Mustaqiim,
SiraatAllaah and Siraatul-‘Ambi-yaa (the Path of Prophets – peace be
upon Them)”. Who will escape in the world from swamps, abysses and confusions, will
be easy at the time of death, the stages of general resurrection will be
finalized easily, and a ready-made, comfortable home will be handed over in the
Paradise duly prepared in all respect for living.
This Path can be chosen only by
acting upon the Revelations of Noble Qur’an. There are many enemies of the
human being, who call towards fulfilling of the worldly desires without any
resistance to seduce him/her. Whereas; Holy Qur’an commands: Do in accord with
My Instructions giving up your own wishes. Stop there, wherever I prevent you.
Actual enemy of the humankind is
Satan (the Devil), who calls them towards the worldly desires to be completed
unchecked, and maximum people of the world follow Satan leaving Qur’an. Therefore,
the Messenger of Allah Almighty (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him)
has been admonished in this verse including entire human beings and
particularly Muslim Nation through Him, that there are a lot of devils in the
world. You should hold the Noble Qur’an firmly and not obey the devils.
