Lesson
The Ways of
recognizing and worshiping Allah Almighty have been described in this Section. First
three verses draw attention of humankind toward those things which are over the
earth and some of which are visible by the human eye, whereas some of them are hidden
from human eye, where our ordinary eye does not work. The mankind has been trying
to investigate them since long, and has discovered many such things, with which
his sight may reach very far. These things which are over the earth are called Kaa-e-naatul Jaww (those all things
which exist and are visible in between the heaven and the earth.
That was
sufficient to confound the sense of human being which was visible with ordinary
sight. Whereas, which can be seen easily now with binoculars and telescopes,
that is not only astonishing but is horrible too. The Belief of sensible people
increases continuously in Allah Almighty and His Omnipotence at the time of every
new disclosure. And the confidence outdoes regarding this matter that really this
Command of Holy Qur’an that: The study of those all things which exist and are
visible in between the heaven and the earth; strengthens the Faith, is entirely
correct. As these all things of the universe are sources of the Cognition of
Allah Almighty at their own, but here, the main aim is to draw attention toward
the administrative influence, which those things put on the earth. Since the
dwelling place of the human being is the earth, so that thing which affects
good on the earth, that is appearance of the Mercy of its Lord for it. By knowing
them, perception regarding thanks giving to own Lord is produced, which
persuades the human beings towards the obedience of their God (Almighty).
In the last
two verses, those blessings have been mentioned which Allah Almighty has
revealed for the benefit of His servants i.e. humankind specially on the earth
and which can be understood easily by the human being with ordinary attention. When
he will understand it, then it is sure that he will be thankful to his Lord,
and this thanks giving is actual reason of his deliverance. These blessings
have two aspects:
·
Apparent
·
Hidden
Apparent
advantage is: Pleasant seasonal winds blow and bring the clouds besieging them
from all around and where it needed, unite them. The water rains from those
clouds. When that raining descends on the land, the dead earth revives. The greenness
begins to appear and after a few days; luxuriant crops begin to bloom. Flowers and
fruit begin to come on the plants and the trees and after a few days, enough
stocks of grains, harvest and fruit are gathered. And the things for physical
rest and facility of the human being are supplied. It rains due to useful
effects of the things held between the heaven and the earth. From the process
under discussion, the signs of life appear and from its production, the body of
humankind, which has been created from the earth, develops.
Indication toward
hidden aspect exists in this command that: Thus (like the earth) shall We bring
forth the dead; that haply ye may remember.
Human being is
collection of body and soul, and the soul is actual life. Bringing it to life
needs: Angels, Prophets and Messengers (peace be upon Them) and the Scriptures
of Allah Almighty. It uses to rain Guidance through Them. As good land gains
advantage from the rain, similarly; good humankind reaps advantage from the
rain of Guidance, whereas bad individual remains debarred like bad earth.
