Commentary
Holy Qur’an has explained very clearly about
those matters for understanding of the mankind, which are necessary for living
in the world, and along with it, it has also been kept in view that the End of
the human being should not be spoiled due to being entangled in the world. Some
are such things; understanding about which is neither necessary for practical
life of common people and nor they have so much sense that they may get to the
bottom of those matters.
Therefore, describing about them with full detail
is equal to put the common people in confusion, and not only this but those special
people also could not untie the knot of these matters by their sense only who
have tried their best to know about them entirely. However, sense of those
particular people, who looked in the light of Divine’s Inspiration, they surely
have at least understood by which their hearts have been satisfied. Otherwise,
being involved in these critical matters, a common man can acquire nothing at
the end save it that he is called by the title “a Philosopher”. But in fact he
understands nothing save dialogues only.
To ensnare in the same dispute, the Jews said to
the people of Makkah that they should ask from the Messenger (grace,
glory, blessings and peace be upon him): What is the Spirit? In this verse, it
has been replied to their question: Say to them! You see some creatures living,
in which the human being is included also. They can move and work with their
will. This life is a power, which enters into them by the Command of Allah
Almighty and they begin to be called “living being”. And when the Spirit comes
out then they fell down being dead. It is the Spirit. It is sufficient for your
knowledge that “the Spirit” is “the Command” of God Almighty. To whom He
orders, he can move and do all works with his intention. Knowledge more than it
is neither necessary for your practical works and nor it has been given to you.
You should continue trying to do good works and should not be entangled in this
perplexity.
