Lesson - 2
At that time, when Holy Qur’an was
revealed, nearly entire people of the world had gone back from the Way of Allah
Almighty. When the Messenger of Allah Almighty began to explain the real
Revelations of Noble Qur’an, it was very troublesome for them to give up their
wrong path, because being too much habitual of it; they had seen their own
death in this new system and organization, whereas the secret of real life was
hidden in it.
The people of Makkah used
to criticize the commands of Holy Qur’an. Instead of understanding the actual
matter, their only job was to object. The Commentators have explained that when
the Holy Qur’an forbade from eating the meat of any dead animal dying naturally
and determined it unlawful for eating, hereupon, the infidels of Makkah
turned up their nose and knitted the eyebrows according to their habit, and
from them, those people, who used to consider themselves more wise, they said:
it is strange that the animal, which is killed by Allah, is unlawful for
eating, whereas, which is slaughtered by a mankind himself, is lawful.
It was described in the previous
verses for warning as its preface and reply that those people, who mislead from
the Way of Allah, say about the apparent matter by making reform. But there is
nothing in their fraudulent sayings. The fact is that Lawful and Unlawful is
based on the Command of Allah Almighty.
The actual foundation of their objection
is that they consider that Allah Almighty should be bound of their wishes, and
as their idols say them nothing, they do as they desire, likewise Allah
Almighty should not give them order (Let’s flee to God). False foundation of
their thoughts was disclosed in the previous verses.
It has been described very clearly
in this verse that “to order is just the job of Allah Almighty and to obey His
Command is the duty of entire mankind”.
It is commanded that Allah
Almighty knows best them, who err from His Way, as well as them also, who are
rightly guided and go straight forward on His prescribed Way. Erroneous way
cannot be correct due to their false and destructive ideas. The wrong is always
wrong. Therefore, you should not care of the sayings by the stupid people.
It is wrong to say that the animal,
which dies itself, is killed by Allah Almighty and which is slaughtered
according to the instructions of Allah Almighty, is killed by the human being.
Allah Almighty kills every soul, whether that is from the mankind or animal
kind.
Moreover, because the name of
Allah Almighty is mentioned at the time of slaughtering any lawful animal, so due
to the blessing of His name, it becomes lawful for eating the meat of that
particular animal only. Accordingly, if any animal is slaughtered by mentioning
the name of any other than Allah Almighty, that is unlawful too, whether that
is slaughtered in accord with the prescribed instructions. For this reason,
being lawful is only with the name of Allah Almighty and His command.
