Lesson
A proud is
found inside the human being, which prevents him from accepting the word of any
other individual; that is called `stubbornness or obstinacy. Many people do
their loss due to such stubbornness. Satan considers it best source of misleading
the mankind. It is the effect of this characteristic that the humankind does
not acknowledge superiority of any other person, but wants to stick to his own
hits. That is why, when any individual is enraged due to any reason, then big
problem comes before the advisers. The Devil seduces the human being every time
that: You are right but those are wrong who cause to understand you.
Behold: What
was answer of the arrogant chieftains of Madian,
the nation of Prophet Shu-‘aib (blessing
on Him)? It is commanded in this verse that proud chieftains of the nation of Prophet
Shu-‘aib (blessing on Him) said to
Him after hearing the advice from Prophet Shu-‘aib
(blessing on Him): If you will speak more invigoratingly, then either we shall drive
you and your believers out from our township or you will be returned to our
religion violently. Prophet Shu-aib
(blessing on Him) said: We consider these matters as poison for us, which you
have assumed, even though, will you cause to drink us the cup of poison forcibly?
Allah Almighty
has rescued us from those wicked deeds and habits, which have been spread into
you. If we shall choose intentionally your religion and way of life, it will be
meant that, which we have been advising you till now, those all were wrong. And
it will be as though “we have invented a lie against Allah Almighty by saying
that our advice was the words of God”. We repent from committing such kind of
any sin. You should think never about it that we shall come back toward your
religion. This haughtiness and vain pride into the human being, due to which he
rejects the advice and commands of Messengers (blessing on Them), is the foundation
of infidelity and disbelief. Islam is quite opposite of this nature. It aims:
To be ready every time to accept any advice and it is the origin of the Belief.
