Lesson
‘Allaziina ‘aamanuu – (The
Believers), the word ‘aamanuu has been
derived from ‘iimaan, which means ‘to
accept by the tongue and have belief in the heart. Only they are Believer, who believe
in Allah Almighty, His Angels (peace be upon them), His Scripture including the
last (Holy Qur’an), His Prophets and Messengers (peace be upon them) including
the last Messenger Muhammad (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) and
the Day of Resurrection, and know it unchangeable that they will have to clear (after
coming into life again) their accounts of deeds which they had done during
their worldly life.
‘Allaziina kafaruu – (the Disbelievers, Infidels and Idolaters), this word has
been derived from kafara that means ‘to
hide, to deny and not to thank’. Those are Infidels, who do not believe in the Principles
of Islam and consider that the worldly life is the only life, and they say that
‘there will be nothing after it’. That is to say; they do not believe in the
Hereafter.
Taaguuti - this word has been
derived from the word Tugyaan, which
means ‘refractory, disobedient mischievous and wicked’. It is the title of
Satan also, who tries always to mislead the humankind from the Straight Path.
Kaydun – (the strategy, the gait and the trap), as trick of the victory
to be achieved by someone. ‘aw-liyaaa-‘u - it is plural of Walii, which means ‘friends, supporters,
helpers, minions, favorites, low flatterers’.
Allah
Almighty has determined a proper manner of living in this world for the
mankind. The human being has not been left free entirely like the animals (that
what they want may do), the name of this manner is ‘Siraatal Mustaqiim, the Straight Path and the True Religion’. It is
the Sabii-Lillaah. At another place in the Holy Qur’an, it has also been
called SiraatAllaah.
A
secret Power, who is called with different names like Satan, the Devil, Taaguut, he has made up His mind to
oppose the human being like enemy in each condition and he uses to try the humanity
to mislead from the Correct and Straight Path, as far as it is possible for
him. Alas! That a major quantity from the human beings has went astray from the
Straight Way due to his deception and they do not listen to anyone due to
following their own wishes.
The
History is witness that many nations of human beings ruined, being entangled in
these meshes and two Paths were set up permanently for the people. One Path is
fixed by Allah Almighty, which has been called Sabii-Lillaah in
the verse and the other is Path of Satan (Sabii-lit-Taaguuti).
It has been
commanded in the verse that the Believers and obedient of Allah Almighty fight to
support His Way. Moreover, those who disbelieve in Allah Almighty and disobey
Him, they fight in the partisanship of the way of the Devil. Then it has been
mentioned that apparently, the confederacies of Satan seem very frightful and
strong, but in fact his strategy is weak and that has no reality before the
matured intentions of the honest people.
