Lesson
Qurbaanin – (an offering,
a sacrifice), during the ancient times, some Messengers (peace be upon them)
were given this miracle that when they used to offer or sacrifice anything in
the Name of Allah Almighty, at that time a fire (from heaven) used to devour that
particular thing. That devouring of the thing by the fire was considered a sign
of acceptance of the offering or sacrifice by Allah Almighty. An event which
belonged to Prophet Solomon (peace be upon him) like this has been recorded in
the present Bible. The Jews caught an evasion from it and said to the Messenger
of Allah Almighty (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) that Allah
Almighty has told them that they should not believe in that Prophet (peace be
upon him), who does not have this miracle.
It was a false evasion of the Jews. There was no
order of this type in any Scripture. Neither it exists today, nor can it be
proved in respect of every Prophet (peace be upon him). Allah Almighty has
bestowed the miracle to each Prophet (peace be upon him) separately, which were
suitable according to his circumstances respectively. Therefore, Messenger of
Allah Almighty (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) said to the
Jews, “If you are true to your promise and you do not believe in any Prophet
(peace be upon him) till the time that you do not see this miracle in to him,
then tell me ‘why did you slay those ancient Prophets (peace be upon them), who
had brought the tokens of their truth, and they had also this specific miracle?
The condition, which is being stipulated by you, that is only a pretense and
trick”.
Allah Almighty satisfied His Messenger (grace,
glory, blessings and peace be upon him) that he would not be sad and sorrowful
due to those people’s absurd reasoning and perverseness. Many Prophets and
Messengers (peace be upon them) were sent before you, who were falsified by the
people.
