Commentary
Purpose of Holy Qur’aan has
been explained in this verse very clearly and the duty of the Messenger of
Allah Almighty (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) has been
manifested well efficiently. The Object of Holy Qur’aan is to
establish a way of life for us in the world. Therefore, there are commandments
for the Acknowledged Virtues and Prohibitions from the Sins (‘Amr
bil Ma’-ruuf wa nahii ‘anil munkar –
the most important social principal of Islam) in it “Enjoining Good &
Forbidding Evil”.
It is the duty of Our Messenger
(grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him) to convey the Message of Allah
Almighty (Holy Qur’aan) to the people clearly and establish the way
of following by acting upon it Himself and then entrust this duty to His
nation, and they should not let this “Established Way” be effaced and help one
another to make it easy to be followed. So that, the human beings may not have
any excuse that they could not know well “the Way of Islam”.
After that, it is the only duty
of entire mankind that they should believe in the Last Messenger (grace, glory,
blessings and peace be upon Him), have faith in the Scripture, brought by Him
i.e. Holy Qur’aan, follow His Sayings (‘Ahaadiis), try to
recite and meditate in the Holy Qur’aan and continue this
practice during their entire life time.
It is not everyone’s duty to
seek causes of the commands and think, “I shall not act upon this command until
I shall not be aware of its usefulness”. At first, believing in it is
compulsory that “It is certainly advantageous for me, for which I have been
instructed by Allah Almighty and His Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and
peace be upon Him) to do, though I may know its usefulness or otherwise. And
surely there is my loss from the beginning to the end, in those deeds from
which I have been prevented, whether I may know it or not”.
The aim of this verse is that
the people, after believing, should obey Allah Almighty and His Messenger
(grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him) without any hesitation, and
keep themselves be saved from opposing the Law prescribed by Holy Qur’aan.
“It is advantageous for you. And if you did not care and turned away from it
then, Remember and beware! That the duty of Our Messenger (grace, glory,
blessings and peace be upon Him) is only clear conveyance of Our Message, which
has been delivered to you properly. Now you will be responsible yourselves”.
