Lesson
In the former verse
Allah Almighty described, “ ’Allaahu Waliyyul- Mu’-miniin”
(Allah is the Protecting Guardian of the believers). In this verse He commanded
that O the People of the Scripture! While Allah is the Protecting Guardian of
the believers, then you cannot deceive them. It is the wish of some people of
the Scripture that as they (themselves) went astray, the Muslims should also be
mislead from the Right Path. But the Muslims will never be entrapped in their
net. However, they are enhancing in misfortune of their depravity. Harm of
these attempts will come up to them, which they do not understand presently.
Then the People
of the Scripture have been warned, “Do not deny the Word of Allah Almighty,
whereas those Holy Books, upon which you have faith, contain the glad tidings
about the Last Messenger, Muhammad (grace, glory, blessings and peace of Allah
Almighty be upon him) and the Holy Qur’an to which your hearts understand well.
And whenever you are alone, then you accept it. But openly you avoid to believe
in the Last Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace of Allah Almighty be
upon him).
The children
of Israel had dismissed some commands of Torah totally due to worldly greediness,
some were concealed and did not use to proclaim about them. For instance; they
did not use to mention the glad tidings and predictions regarding the Last
Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace of Allah Almighty be upon him). It
has been pointed out towards these types of matters that, O the People of the
Scripture! Why do you amalgamate true and false? And why do you falsify the
true glad tidings? Whereas you know that, these all sayings are quite right.
It seems
from these verses that the People of the Scripture keep envy with the Muslims
and try always to let them go astray like themselves. For this purpose, they
will adopt different schemes for the Muslims; they will conspire and consult
secretly against them. But Allah Almighty is the Protecting Guardian of the
believers, He will never let them succeed in their plans.
