First Stage of
Islam – establishing Peace
Surah YUUNUS - 10 (JONAH)
BisMillaahir-Rahmaanir-Rahiim
In the name of God, the
Beneficent, the Merciful
Lesson
This shows that the world has to keep up for the
purpose that the Invitation of Allah Almighty should reach each corner, and
every individual should listen to it. Holy Qur’aan is a Common
Invitation for entire human beings of the world. It is a declaration of this
Invitation. Allah Almighty has given this work under the trust of His last
Messenger (grace, blessings and peace be upon Him), that He should convey this
Message of Invitation everywhere. He (grace, blessings and peace be upon Him)
delivered the Message unto all those people who were close to Him and caused to
understand them with complete explanation.
After that, Messenger of Allah Almighty (grace,
blessings and peace be upon Him) taught the Muslims Holy Qur’aan and
method of acting upon its Commandments practically, and made over this
responsibility to them, that they should transmit the Message of God Almighty
i.e. Holy Qur’aan in the entire world, and cause to know the people its
meanings in detail by their word and deed. First duty of the Muslims is that
they should try to establish such environment that the world should remain
standing with Peace and Safety, and the people may gain so much opportunity
that they may hear the Message of Allah Almighty.
First stage of Islam is to establish Peace and
spread reciprocal fellow feeling, and draw intention of every human being to
this side that they listen to the Message of God Almighty and learn the manners
of mutual cooperation, sympathy and morality like the Muslims. It is compulsory
for the Muslims that they should produce such manners before the world which
Holy Qur’aan has taught them and example of which they have learnt from
the conduct and behavior of the Messenger (grace, blessings and peace be upon
Him) and His Companions (May Allah be pleased with them), otherwise it will be
considered that they have not completed their duty of conveying the Message.
Allah Almighty gave the Muslims Empire, but only
for the purpose that they should produce practical pattern of living before the
world according to the Laws of Islam, and finish the breach of the peace and the
tyranny. If they succeeded in establishing government over any country, they
should use their authority for setting to right and welfare of the inhabitants
of that country. Being rulers they should not only be addicted to pleasure and
should never think “How the people should be used and enjoy with their
earnings?”
When the inhabitants of a country would have
learned well the ways of mutual cooperation, using their sense independently,
and establishing peace and safety in the country, then the Muslims should
search any other field for their acts; and engage for conveyance of the Message
of God’s Invitation. They should get themselves ready every time for the reason
that if any group transgresses against a country, they should reach immediately
to help those who are treated wrongfully and unjustly, and “Nip the evil in the bud”.
In short, first work of the Muslims is to establish
Peace and Safety in the world, so that the people should not destroy their
beloved lives by entangling in useless disputes. Moreover, whosoever desires to
hear the Message of God Almighty, should be free, may accept His Invitation
happily. Death, life and fight of the Muslims are only for a cause that they
should call the people with their tongue, deeds and behavior, softly and with
grace unto hearing the Word of Allah Almighty.
