Commentary
Tanaaza’-tum -
(you have a dispute). The words nazaa’ and tanaaza-‘a have
also been derived from the same origin, which means ‘to quarrel, to dispute, to
argue, misunderstanding, contradiction and to oppose.
Rudduuhu - (refer
to), there are many other words from its derivation like ‘irtadaad,
murtad etc. Actual aim is ‘to invert, to return towards the Law of
Allah Almighty and the traditions of the Last Messenger (grace, glory, blessings
and peace be upon him) in case of a dispute concerning any matter. That is to
say, the decision of the dispute should be finalized in the light of the Will
of Allah Almighty and His Last Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be
upon him).
We have been guided by Allah
Almighty, “If any mutual misunderstanding arises among you and your officials
concerning any matter that, whether the command of the ruler is suitable or
opposite, then the Scripture (Holy Qur’an) of Allah Almighty and
Sayings of His Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) should
be consulted, and brought it to a conclusion. Then the result, which has been
settled, that should be considered mutually correct and fit. And if you (in
truth) believe in Allah Almighty and the Last Day, then your (belief) will
demand that you should refer the case to the Command of Allah Almighty and
Sayings of His Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him), and
that belief will excite you to fear from Their opposition.
We knew from it that the
person, who will run away from the command of Allah Almighty and Sayings of His
Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him), is not a Muslim.
Therefore, if two Muslims have any dispute with each other, one of both said,
“Let’s refer to Law of Divine”. The other said, “I don’t have any regard to the
Law of Divine” or “I am not concerned with any Divine way of religion”, then
that person is not believer, otherwise he would not have said such words.
Allah Almighty describes, “If
you will refer your disputes and discords to Allah and Messenger (grace, glory,
blessings and peace be upon him), and obey Them, then it will be better for
you. Result of referring the matters to Allah And His Messenger (grace, glory,
blessings and peace be upon him) is better than quarreling with one another or
deciding according to own opinions.
Today, we observe that the
Muslims quarrel with one another and instead of taking decision from Holy Qur’an,
they refer their cases to other non-Islamic Laws. The only reason of it is that
they keep the casual and closely results in view. They do not know that doing
so, they spoil their end (the Day of Resurrection). If they obey the commands
of Allah Almighty, their result may be better and more seemly in the end.
