Covenant that “God is our Lord”
Chapter ‘Al-‘A’raaf (The Heights) – Surah – 7)
‘A-‘uu-zu 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)
(I seek refuge in God from Satan the outcast)

(In the name of God, the Beneficent, the Merciful)
It has been known that a
covenant was made by the Jews that they will obey God Almighty and His
Commands, and they have been reminded about that covenant again by means of
Holy Qur’an, and they have been provided one more opportunity that
which covenant, they had made with God Almighty and broken, but such covenant
is still standing in the Court of Allah Almighty. And if they get ready, even
now, to fulfill their portion of the covenant, Allah Almighty will fulfill
according to the custom, His portion of that covenant.
That covenant demands from them
that they should enter into Islam entirely. After that, Allah Almighty will
bestow upon them the same dignity which was requested by Prophet Moses (peace
be upon Him) for them, and that request was approved with the condition that
they should obey the Commands of God’s last Messenger, Muhammad (grace, glory,
blessings and peace be upon Him).
On the basis of that covenant,
The Jews must come in the circle of Islam just like that; every mankind must
accept Islam, but they have been able to be captured for repeatedly breaking
the covenant. They broke three covenants:
·
The covenant of the world of
spirits
·
The covenant that they will
obey the Prophets and Messengers (peace be upon Them)
·
The covenant that they will
embrace Islam
Actually the mankind is name of
the soul, a body has been provided to whom to stay for some time. Because the
body or the self is a thing of this world, so it pulls him toward the world.
But the soul belongs to the heaven and it has the acquaintance of the Lord
naturally. The soul turns toward His Lord if the body is clear from its wishes.
Therefore conflict between body and soul is continued. And often the humankind
becomes oblivious from the requirements of the soul being trapped in the
thought of bodily comforts. For removing this negligence, Allah Almighty sent
His Prophets and Messengers (peace be upon Them), they told the human being that
the body is a casual thing but the soul will remain for ever.
Therefore, as possible, the
mankind should draw his attention towards the necessities of his body only to
the extent of need so that it may have so much strength that it may obey the
Commands of God Almighty and His Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace
be upon Him) and let the soul set her deep relationship with God Almighty in
this life, and be careful, lest it take the body anywhere at its sole
discretion like a wicked horse.
When the soul
is separated from worldly matters, its internal eye begins to open. It begins
to feel: before coming in the body, I made covenant in front of Allah Almighty
that: You are my Lord. It is the sign of its prosperity. It will be then
possible for the soul to feel about its actual condition; when the mankind
passes his leisure time in learning the religion and morality instead of
passing whole time in earning worldly wealth and honor. And he should bear
happily that loss or injury, which he suffered during his learning period.
