Commentary
In fact, Prophets (peace be upon them) of Allaah Almighty
complied with great necessary and useful works in the world. If they (Prophets)
had not been appointed for guidance then some human beings would have been like
wolves and beasts of prey. Some people used to quarrel with one another like
cows, goats, strong fierce animals and wolves, and they used to press down the
weak people. Prophets (peace be upon them) taught the mankind living mutually
during their individual times. They said to the powerful people: Troubling the
feeble is not good. You have not been given more physical strength for the
purpose that you begin to strangle the weak people as and when you get any
opportunity. But actual use of strength is that you should help the helpless.
It is particular beauty of the mankind that he should have compassion with
other mankind brothers and move ahead along with them.
Moses and Aaron (peace be upon them) caused to understand the
same to the real inhabitants (Qabti people) of Egypt that the Children
of Israel were weaker than them, so they should not oppress them. It is against
the human nature that strong people molest the weak and take work from them
like animals. You are more transgressors because you desire to keep a group of
people weaker and helpless, so that they must serve you.
It was reward of human service for Moses and Aaron (peace be
upon them) that they became famous as human well-wishers, and the wise people
mention them with honor and send peace and compliment on them. Allaah
Almighty commanded: Thus We reward the righteous. Along with it, they had
wealth of belief. So they will be rewarded with great ranks in the next life.
After them, there is mention of Prophet Elias (peace be upon him).
