مَّنِ ٱهْتَدَىٰ فَإِنَّمَا يَهْتَدِى لِنَفْسِهِۦ وَمَن ضَلَّ فَإِنَّمَايَضِلُّ عَلَيْهَا وَلَا تَزِرُ وَازِرَةٌ وِزْرَ أُخْرَىٰ وَمَا كُنَّا مُعَذِّبِينَ حَتَّىٰ نَبْعَثَ رَسُولًا 15

15. Whosoever goeth
right, it is only for (the good of) his own soul that he goeth right, and
whosoever erreth, erreth only to its hurt. And no laden soul can bear
another’s load. And We never punish until We have sent a messenger.

Commentary
Wa laa taziru – this sentence
has passed in Suratul-‘An’aam (Chapter 6) as it is. Waaziratun
means “one who bears load, laden soul”. It is an attribute of the soul, so it
is in feminine form.
It is commanded that the mankind should understand
it carefully that the Path towards which Allah Almighty calls and unto which
the Messenger of Allah Almighty (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him)
invites, that is a Straight Path of mankind’s success. The person; who chose
that Path, chose for himself and certainly he will reap abundant advantages of
that Path. But if any person will leave that Path and will adopt any other
path, he will be in danger at every step. And he will be punished very severely
because of error and leaving the right path.
You should bear in mind that every individual will
be responsible of own deeds. It cannot be that load of one person may bear
someone else. It is a universal law for the mankind that “As you sow so you
shall reap”. It cannot be that “The sins of parents visit their children”. Evil
deed recoils against the doer. Therefore, every individual should engage
himself in correcting own deeds. For causing to understand the same Rule, Allah
Almighty appointed His Prophets (peace be upon them) in every nation.
It is commanded: At first, We send Our Messenger
(peace be upon him) unto the people, so that he should warn and frighten them
about the consequences of wicked deeds. Then We punish the wrongdoers. Sending
doom without information, on the people who do wrong, is not Our Manner.
