The rich does not care the poor

Billaahi minash-Shay-taanir- Rajiim.

(I seek refuge in God from Satan the outcast.)
Bis-Millaahir-Rah-maanir-Rahiim.
(In the name of God, the Beneficent, the Merciful.)
(In the name of God, the Beneficent, the Merciful.)
رُّبَمَا يَوَدُّ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ لَوْ كَانُوا۟ مُسْلِمِينَ 2
ذَرْهُمْ يَأْكُلُوا۟ وَيَتَمَتَّعُوا۟ وَيُلْهِهِمُ ٱلْأَمَلُ فَسَوْفَيَعْلَمُونَ 3
وَمَآ أَهْلَكْنَا مِن قَرْيَةٍ إِلَّا وَلَهَا كِتَابٌ مَّعْلُومٌ 4
مَّا تَسْبِقُ مِنْ أُمَّةٍ أَجَلَهَا وَمَا يَسْتَـْٔخِرُونَ 5
Previous verses,
which are in the beginning of this Chapter, are a best Lesson for the Muslims
of these days. At first, these verses were caused to hear the honorable people
of Makkah, whose quickness of perception and sagacity was very sharp in
understanding the matters of worldly life. They were commanded: If you use your
sense correctly then you will know that this prosperity of the world is not for
always. It was described to them: To rouse the mankind from the dream of
unmindful-ness, Messenger of Allah Almighty (grace, glory, blessings and peace
be upon him) has brought unto you the Message of God Almighty. He will cause to
hear you the Word of your Lord.
Holy Qur’aan
explains before you that if you did not choose the correct Path, then very
soon, misfortunes and calamities would be descended on you. The Infidels of Makkah
did not pay any attention to these Sayings. The only reason was that they were
rich and had luxurious things. The common people used to obey and respect them.
They could not understand that these entire things would be snatched from them
and they would suffer from calamities.
It was the result
that from which calamity they were being frightened; later on that was
descended. Their wealth was seized and they were disgraced. Their friends and
supporters came to an end in their presence. At last, they also were off. In
addition they bought the calamity of the Doomsday. We should think: Whether is
our condition not as of those, even being Muslims? Whether have we not
forgotten the commandments of Holy Qur‘aan, being overjoyed on our
wealth?
Alas! It seems that
the person, who possesses some wealth, does not care others. He turns away from
Holy Qu’aan, determines that restrictions of the religious Law of God
are a trouble only; and says that “these are for the poor and worthless
fellows. Rich people are not indigent to give up newly invented things of
amusement and sports; and become priests”.
Alas! Is this
behavior different from the behavior of the Infidels of Makkah? If not,
then it is a place of extreme fear. There is none who may protect save Allah
Almighty.
