Lesson
Messenger
of Allah Almighty (SallAllaahu alayHi wa AaliHii
Wasallam) was prohibited from standing to
pray in Masjid Zaraar which was built
as a challenge to old Masjid Qubaa;
and the ill-will of those people has been described clearly who constructed new
masjid; that it has been built for
the purpose that they may enforce the infidelity against Islam. And by creating
discord among the Muslims, they should produce at least two groups for the
present. In future, an opportunity will be available to spread more
dissensions.
It has been described in this verse
that which Masaajid (Mosques) are
suitable for standing to pray. Those Masaajid
which do not fulfill the standard mentioned in this verse, are not worthy that
Muhammad, the Messenger of God Almighty (SallAllaahu
alayHi wa AaliHii Wasallam) and
the Muslims should stand into them to pray.
It is commanded that the Masaajid which have been built with
sincerity and good-will from the beginning, only those are worthy for standing
to pray. Such Masaajid were two only
at that time – Masjid Nabvi (SallAllaahu alayHi wa AaliHii Wasallam) and old Masjid Qubaa.
There are such people in these Masaajid
whose hearts are pure and clean from infidelity, hypocrisy and ill-will. And they
keep their appearance also clean and pure according to rule. Allah Almighty
likes such people.
It is known from this illustration
that purpose of constructing any Masjid
should be for pure worship of Allah Almighty. Building of a Masjid for support and help of any
particular group or sect is not suitable, because misunderstanding and
dissension will grow among the Muslims by doing so, and instead of worshiping
Allah Almighty sincerely, it will be used for making plots to develop and
support own sect.
Standing to pray in such Masjid; supports those people who create
any sect. consequently the Muslims will divide and there will be many sects. It
is such a thing; from which Islam has forbidden severely. Being stubborn, a man
can commit; whatever he wishes. There is an afraid in it that such individual
may adopt infidelity to humiliate others (Let us flee to Allah). Sorry to say
that now-a-days, signs of hypocrisy are being observed openly. About the
infidelity; it is that; we should be careful from saying someone “Infidel”,
otherwise its symptoms are very clear.
