48b. For each We have appointed a divine law and a
traced-out way. Had Allah willed He would have made you one community, but
that He may try you by that which He hath given you (He hath made you as ye
are); so vie one with another in good works. Unto Allah ye will all return,
and He will then inform you of that wherein ye differ-

Commentary
Shir-‘atan –
(a divine law), shara’ and sharii-‘at are
other forms of the same word. These all words have the same meaning “a Divine
Law of the Religion”.
Minhaa-jun -
(a traced-out way), it is from nahaj, which means “way, manner,
fashion, observances, system etc.” Another word for it is “Maz-hab or Tariiqah”,
a particular way in the Law of Divine. (Importance) usually the words “Diin, Shara’ and Maz-hab have
nearly the same meaning, but actually the religion is a vast thing, but the
Way, which is determined by any Messenger (peace be upon Him) for its
enforcement, is called “Shara’’”, which should be spoken as ‘the Law of
the Religion’. The wise people judge properly by considering thoughtfully in
the Shara’. The collection of those thoughts is “Maz-hab”
(the Religious Sect) and that is also called Fiqah (the
Theology).
Allah Almighty describes, “We
have empowered the mankind to dwell in the world as they wish. They have
involved themselves in various sects. Every sect has made separate laws and
ways for themselves and We have given them time, because We have to observe
that whosoever goes Straight Way from them”.
Then Allah Almighty says, “If
We willed, We would have made the entire mankind one community, but kept them
on the separate ways for their trial. However, even then a particular sign of
the Straight Path has been determined i.e. all useful matters have been
gathered in it for the entire mankind. So if you wish to come towards
the Straight Way, then jump up towards those useful advices, which have
been prescribed for the human being. This world is place of a test, after death
you all will be assembled before Allah Almighty and He will expose the reality
and the result of your all the ways. The Holy Qur’aan is the
Scripture, which tells about the Straight Path and the Muslim nation has been
appointed to produce itself before the world by acting upon its instructions”.
