Quran Chapter
24: Summary (Pt-18, Stg-4) (L-2257) درس قرآن
Extract from the Chapter “Light”
Chapter “Nuur” – (Light) - 24
‘A-‘uu-zu Billaahi minash-Shay-taanir- Rajiim.
(I seek refuge in Allaah
from Satan the outcast)
Bis-Millaahir-Rah-maanir-Rahiim.
(In the name of Allaah, the Beneficent, the Merciful)
Bis-Millaahir-Rah-maanir-Rahiim.
(In the name of Allaah, the Beneficent, the Merciful)
The society has been compelled in this chapter that its members
should keep themselves chaste from evils. Naturally the human beings wish to
live together mutually, and it is also difficult without dwelling mutually in
the world. But every individual has some desires and necessities. These necessities
and desires make him selfish. The sense describes that no one can fulfill his
requirements without help of one another. Therefore, it is compulsory that everyone
should show his favor to all other people. In the matter of the limit of
showing favor, the people have suffered many losses. It is the universal truth
that if Allaah Almighty had not sent His Prophets (peace be upon them) for
the purpose of guidance from time to time in this world, the mankind would have
to confront several difficulties in establishing relationship with his
companions and environments.
Islam came in the world along with the mankind and taught him
the ways of living together in accord with its rules. At the end, the last
Messenger of Allaah Almighty (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon
him) came and produced its perfect form before the entire people of the world. The
real matter which exists in it is to believe that The Creator of this world is
only Allaah Almighty. And only He is Who saves the life of every living
being and prescribes correct established orders for dwelling of every
individual. As the mankind should live in the world, can live then; when he
will believe in Allaah Almighty, accept that Muhammad is His last Messenger
(grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) and pass his life with effort
according to the Instructions mentioned in Holy Qur’an.
