Commentary
Some people in the
world are those whom the lust of the world is so overcoming that they deem only
it their perfect object. According to them; greatest success is; getting
material benefits more and more, accumulate a heap of gold and money, collect
the wealth, influence and riches. They become blind in its quest. These greedy
persons sacrifice their Hereafter and good end in this effort by falling into
the trap of greediness and avarice.
Those people are
involved in this disease who are mean in morality, impure in affairs, selfish
in their behaviors, deniers of the Doomsday and insane for the casual
advantages. They look only the nearby profits always and ignore the durable
results. They remain desirous of such thing in every deal, from which they may
reap advantage immediately. They have no power of patience and endurance. So
they become too much cheerful in this effort and try that if they worship, beg
from God Almighty or do any good work, even in it, they wish to reap worldly
advantage.
They call Allah
Almighty only for the purpose that He should pile for them wealth and complete
their material necessities. They take part in Jihad only for getting spoils,
perform the Pilgrimage only for acquiring commercial benefits, offer prayers
and pay the poor-due for getting confidence of the people and gain profit
unlawfully from it. To them; the Paradise and blessings of
the Hereafter are nothing. They suppose that belief in the Day of Resurrection
is useless. They think that the indisputable Life after death will never
happen. They don’t believe in reward or punishment against good or evil deeds.
The life is only in this world according to them and the success is only the
worldly success.
They are involved in open straying. They have
chosen the way of infidelity and hypocrisy. While it is fact that this world is
only abridged part of our successive lives. Remaining and forever life will
become our fortune only after death. That life will be fruit of our good or bad
acts which we shall do in this world. The life of Hereafter is eternal,
unchangeable and without end. Real success is that life’s rest and success. We
should strengthen our worldly life in such way, that it becomes stairs of success
for our future lives (of the Hereafter).
