Commentary

The important question of Islam is the matter of Unity (Oneness of God Almighty), which has been repeated in the Holy Qur’an again and again. The foundation of the entire Faiths and foundation of all good works has been established on the Belief that Lord of the entire mankind, Master of the entire Universe, Entitled of the Worship and Accountant on the Day of Resurrection is only One God. Only that person goes near the sins, evils and badness; who neither believes in the Existence of the Most Superior and the Eternal Life of God Almighty and nor in His Power, Strength and the Doomsday.

As much depravity, un-civilization, dark notion and worshiping of whims did exist in the People of the Scripture and Atheist nations, Islam presented the greatest Belief regarding the Unity (Oneness of God) to remove this tendency and told that there is only One God Almighty, Who fulfills the entire necessities of every living being. He is Lord Almighty; Who helps during the times of difficulties, troubles and pains, Who tests after granting the blessings and favors, Who provides the eatables and drinkable, and forgives the sins with His Mercy.  So, He is the Only One to be Worshiped, to be Called every time, to be deemed as our Master and Lord. We should have sense about the counting of our good and bad deeds and being answerable in His Court on the Day of Resurrection.

There is only one faith, which is “the Unity” (Oneness of God), which helps us to determine unto the Straight Path. We shall become thoughtful after obeying this belief, anyhow; we must not go astray from the actual path, and we must not treat others with wicked behavior. As God Almighty is the Merciful upon us, like this, we should behave with mercy and kindness also with His creature.

Particularly; two matters have come before us from this verse:

1.   Allah Almighty is the only Life to be worshiped, to be obeyed and our Commander in Chief. There is none worthy of worship except Him.

2.   Kind nature with blessings of God Almighty is with entire Grace and Mercy. No doubt; He is the Omnipotent and most Powerful but His Mercy is containing over the entire things. The mankind should never be hopeless and desperate from His mercy.

Whether the difficulties are how much bigger, contest is how much strong, even then; if we are on the Just, God Almighty shall help us. He will never return us disappointed from His Court.
