Commentary

It is commanded: You people can remain chaste and pure when you give up thinking evil. Spreading immodesty and talking about shameful matters cannot be the work of anyone else but only those who are wicked and immoral people. It is the means of preventive measure against indecency and evil that when thought of these misfortunes grow in mind, that should not be spoken with any other. And if any such thing comes out by the tongue heedlessly, then one should recite لاَ حَوْلَ وَلاَ قُوَّةَ إِلاَّ بِاللَّهِ (there is no power and no strength except with Allaah) and استغفار istiġfār {(AstaghfirUllaah) (I seek forgiveness of Allaah). And it should never be talked before the people, because spreading the indecency is the act of the Hypocrites, not of the Believers. The Believers do never accuse any other without proof.

You should bear in mind that the people who spread the evil, talk of the immodesty and accuse falsely to others by name, they will be overtaken by calamities in the world, and on the Day of Resurrection. A painful torment will be for them who will disgrace any other by violence. He will be disgraced certainly, scourged with stripes, his evidence will not be reliable and after death he will be tormented painfully in addition. Allaah Almighty is Well Aware of the wicked people. You don’t know treacheries of hypocrites. You should not be taken in their sweet conversation. This disturbance which has caused, its torment would have fallen on all of you. Allaah Almighty has removed it by His Grace and Mercy. It was His kindness and benevolence, by which you have been saved, otherwise God knows what would have happened.

Commentary

It is commanded: You would have to say after looking that so much great malicious slander has been coming out from the mouths of some people: O my Lord! Glory be to You! Which groundless matter these people have been expounding, that is very harsh slanderous report. There is no truth in it.

Then it is commanded: O Muslims! Listen! Allaah Almighty reproves you with mildness that you should never commit any such error again in future. Having unreasonable doubt concerning any person is against the dignity of the Believers. One should never imagine about mischief from the side of any other. What has happened with you that you have come in the deception of wicked and rebel people, and you have begun to think evil against such people whose morality is a measuring standard for the entire world? The Believers have no concern with such kind of suspicions. Those individuals have been deceived indeed by Satan who think worse against any other.

Allaah Almighty describes you recipes of passing the worldly life with peace and safety. You should bear them in mind. If you did not use those formulae properly then you will lose your reputation and you will be disgraced.

Allaah Almighty has knowledge concerning everything and knows the reality of all. Your welfare is only in it that you should keep the society chaste from evil deeds according to Commandments of your Lord, even that you should never speak any wrong word.

Quran Chapter 24: 15 & 16a (Pt-18, Stg-4) (L-2207) درس قرآن

16a.  Wa  law  laaa  ‘iz  sami’-tu-muuhu  qultum-maa  yakuunu  lanaaa  ‘an-natakallama  bi-haazaa.

Commentary

Keeping the society chaste and pure is collective responsibility of the Muslims. Society is not established by only gathering of the people at a place, but it is established by producing such deep relationship among the individuals by which mutual hearty harmony is created in this group of people. As though; assembly is a body and living altogether well is its soul. Combination of the both will become a living thing, which will be called Society. And then its instructions will be followed by all people. It is the way of making a society that inside the people themselves, a person of good moral character is born. Then every individual should mould own manners according to that person’s nature; to such stage that a standard of civility is established. Then morality of all members of the society will be set on that pattern.

Quality of manners of the Messenger of Allaah Almighty (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) is a criterion. And in accord with that standard, the society will be established. Whoever will not follow that pattern, wrath of Allaah Almighty will come upon him/her.

Some people had turned away from that standard at that occasion which has been mentioned in this verse. They tried to ensnare others in this misfortune by abusing. They have been warned in this verse that spreading such rumors is a great sin. To say without verification that which other people say; is crossing the line of the Religious Law. It should not be considered any common matter. There is a fear of being the society disorganized by it. The person, who is found and proved guilty, should be punished properly. But on the basis of doubts or by saying someone else, none should be accused of any evil deed. Shut up your mouth! You consider that vilifying others is not a serious matter, but it is a great crime in the Sight of Allaah Almighty.

Commentary

Faith in sincerity of one another and trust in one’s good moral character is necessary in Islamic Society. Its foundation is on chasteness of imaginations and full self-control upon vexing others. It is taught day and night in Islamic brotherhood that the people should escape from unchaste matters and acts, ward off evil deeds and keep fear of Allaah Almighty every time in their hearts. Allaah Almighty is Well Aware of your entire open and hidden matters. Calumny of any other is considered equal to own calumny in Islam. It has been instructed in it that you should have sympathy among yourselves mutually in society and help one another every time. Abstinence and God-fearing are taught with effect from the beginning. In such environments, lack of self reliance can never be born. If any person accuses any other, he should prove it by four reliable witnesses, otherwise he should be quiet. If he will open his tongue without proof then he will be considered a liar in the Sight of Allaah Almighty.

The individuals who have spread a totally false slander concerning the Mother of the Believers {Aaishah (may Allah be pleased with her)}, they should understand it clearly that an awful doom would have overtaken them for that whereof they murmured. However they have been saved due to the Grace of Allaah Almighty and His Mercy unto the Muslims in the world and the Hereafter. Allaah Almighty accepted their repentance who repented of their sins. Some people were purified by giving them punishment of Qazf and the evil spirit people were released after disgracing them.

Commentary

The people who embraced Islam and repented of previous wicked deeds, and determined that they would pass a chaste and pure life in future, they should be fearless totally from the acts of their mutual violence against one another. They should have full faith in one another that every person of the society will guard life, wealth and property, honor and chastity of every other member of the community; and will save reputation of Islamic Society from ungraceful brand of sins.

When every member of the society determined it then there is no chance of being the chaste and pure culture sullen due to groundless rumors. It was required that every that individual who heard this slander, should have said unhesitatingly and without delay that it was (God preserve thee from it) entirely false imputation. And it was an illusion of hidden enemies spread by conspiring for spreading restlessness among the Muslims by violence. To spread suspicion mutually by false slander and accusing the good people falsely are devilish works. This Law has been established to hush up the mischief-makers that none should accuse any other of adultery, until he has four reliable and lawful witnesses to prove that he speaks the truth. Without it, if any person says something wrong to vilify any other, then all people should say unanimously that “You are telling a lie entirely. It is a false scandal. None can commit any such work in Islamic Society. Chaste people are at a great distance from it”.

Gang of hypocrites -2 - Quran Chapter 24: 11 (Pt-18, Stg-4) (L-2204) درس قرآن



Quran Chapter 24: 11 (Pt-18, Stg-4) (L-2204) درس قرآن

Gang of hypocrites -2

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)

Abdullah bin ‘Ubaii, the Chieftain of Hypocrites, used to lie in wait for such occasions. This unlucky person brought out such talk from his mouth, by hearing of which, the hearts trembled. He began to prate absurd and in the whole Madinah city, this story remained openly in circulation. Some people, who were simple, including the Muslims who were unaware of the tricks of hypocrites, were also affected by this. Messenger of Allaah (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) suffered a severe shock. He used to hear rumors, feel troubled in mind and remain silent. After one month, Aaishah (may Allah be pleased with her) came to know that what News had been circulating publicly against her. She was grieved very much and became sick. She used to do nothing but weeping day and night.

At last those unfortunate days were over. Verses were revealed in Holy Qur’an, which begin from the under-reference verse and go to an end in complete two Sections. The Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) was sure that such all rumors were nothing but a lie and slander. It is commanded: Those, who have spread this slander, are such people who say themselves Muslims and count themselves in the group of Muslims. From them, some people have fabricated this rumor, and some more people who are unaware of their trick, have come in their deception. But it is Grace of Allaah Almighty that majority of the Muslims know that they are entirely liars. So they were saved from their tricks.

From this slander, members of the house and true Muslims suffered a great shock, but they should have faith that nothing of them has been spoiled. Moreover, there is betterment in it for them consequently. Fruit of bearing patiently such kind of incident is very nice. The greatest matter is that Evidence of Allaah Almighty Himself concerning chastity and innocence of the Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) and members of his family has been inscribed in the Holy Qur’an for always. Now good mention of the Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) will be kept up forever by every that person who will recite Holy Qur’an anytime and anywhere. The people who have been involved in this great wrong deed as much, so much they will have to suffer from the disgrace of the world and the doom of the Day of Resurrection. And an awful doom for the chieftain of this slander is ready. In the world too its depravity and malevolence will be proclaimed. This chieftain of the hypocrites was Abdullah bin ‘Ubaii. He will always be called with scornful and hateful names.
