LESSON # 395 - Don’t Obey The People Of The Scripture

LESSON # 395 FROM HOLY QUR’AN
Don’t Obey The People Of The Scripture
Surah ‘Aali ‘Imran (The Family Of ‘Imran, Chapter - 3)
Verse –100 of 200, Section –10    (Part – 4)

O ye who believe! If ye obey a party of those who have received the Scripture they will make you disbelievers after your belief.          
Yaaa- ‘ayyuhal-laziina  ‘aa-manuuu  ‘in-  tutii-‘uu  fariiqam-minallaziina  ‘uutul-Kitaaba  ya-rudduukum-  ba’-da  ‘imaani-kum  kaafiriin.           



Lesson

The people of the Scripture were threatened in the previous verses, “It is not convenient for you that you use to mislead the people intentionally telling them fictitious faults regarding the religion of Islam, while open tokens and proofs in respect of the truth of Islam, Holy Qur’an and the Last Messenger, Muhammad (grace, glory, blessings and peace of Allah Almighty be upon him) have been manifested upon you”.  

It is clear that the children of Israel used to bear malice willing or unwilling. They did not abstain after listening to the advice. Therefore, along with thus, the Muslims have also been advised, “You should not be taken in these mischievous persons. They will try to make you disbelievers with gaits of various sorts. If you will move on their suggestions and obey them, then you will throw yourselves into a state of anxiety that gradually you will fall again in the darkness of the infidelity, after coming out from the light of Belief, whence it is much difficult to come back afterwards.

ya-rudduukum(they will make you disbelievers), origin of this word is Raddun and the word Murtad  has also come out from it. Hardest and severest punishment in Islam is for the Murtad, (the person, who turns away from Islam, is called Murtad). We cannot compel any person to accept Islam, but he cannot be forgiven who becomes Murtad (who turns away from Islam), because he falls in the well of darkness of the infidelity willfully and with knowledge.  

Several affairs manifest from this verse:

·       The people of the Scripture are extremely enemies of Islam and they try always that the Muslims would have turned from the religion Islam towards infidelity and belief in a plurality of God (polytheism). It is there deliberate conspiracy.
·       A man is known by the company he keeps and the company affects itself very soon. If the Muslims will choose friendship with the people of the Scripture, act upon their advice and accept their sayings, then in process of the time their wickedness, depravity, denial and diabolical acts will infect the Muslims too.

The Muslims should learn in these circumstances that they should not attend more the company of the people of the Scripture, not listen to their talks, not be deceived and not increase their relations with them. It is the only form to escape oneself from their evil.
