Lesson

It was known well from the verse of previous lesson how much well-wishing and fellow-feeling was filled in the heart of the Messenger of Allaah Almighty (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him) for the human beings. And He grieved and mourned very much, when used to observe the people gone back from the Straight Path, just like a kind father grieves, when he sees his children entangled in prolix talks and turned away from the useful matters, but very excessive than it, because any father of children cannot know too much about the real useful matter, which Messenger of Allaah Almighty (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him) knows.

It is revealed that as much any person will be aware of the Reality, so much will he grieve on the stupidities of others. How much Messengers and Prophets (peace be upon Them) came in this world, maximum of them remained overtaken by this grief and trouble that their nations considered them as liars due to their own ignorance. Heartily they faced grief as well as the stupid people put them in different sorts of troubles. But they used to be patient and bear their ill-treatment.

At last Allaah Almighty helped His Messengers and Prophets (peace be upon Them) against the wicked-doers according to the Rule. It appears clearly from Holy Qur’aan that at the end, the wicked people could not succeed. Those people who afflict and disobey the Messengers (peace be upon Them), are not opposing the Messengers (peace be upon Them), but have enmity with Allaah Almighty.

Whether they are seen successful apparently, at last, the Rage of God Almighty will encircle them and they will be ruined very badly. Allaah Almighty says: O Messenger! The Messengers (peace be upon Them) indeed have been denied before You, and They were patient under the denial and the persecution, which is main cause of the grief, till Our succor reached Them and the Messengers (peace be upon Them) won, whereas Their enemies were defeated.

Verily already there has reached You O Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him) somewhat of the tidings of the Messengers (peace be upon Them) We (Allaah Almighty) sent before. You will know from those tidings about the consequence of those people, who opposed the Messengers/Prophets (peace be upon Them). How the Messengers (peace be upon Them) succeed always against their enemies, who were actually enemies of Allaah Almighty?
