It can be understood by
thinking a little that the human being needs many things for living. It is
clear that everyone has a right to get them. There can be two ways for
acquiring necessary things. Either everyone should think only for own purpose
and do not care for others, as you can see in dogs, or the other form is “the
person, who obtains any important thing, should share it with others” as it can
be observed in the crows, but the cock is ahead than the crow in this matter.
Which extra quality in the cock than the crow can be seen, is that, if it looks
any eatable, calls the hens, feeds them, but doesn’t take anything itself.
However if the food is excessive, then it takes as per its requirement. It has
also been observed in the small ants that they use to collect their food
individually or collectively at one place. Then at the time of necessity, each
of them uses to take from their hoard according to one’s need. And none of them
says, “Take less because you did not work hard, and to the other, take more
because you worked hard”. Islam is a standard-bearer of the second observance.
Though the human being is a
dead and gone than a small ant in this matter? He should have so much sense
that either he should let his weak and poor brother take according to his
necessity or give him personally, and should take himself according to own
requirement and do not violate.
But the Jews and the Christians
have adopted the first observance as explained above in the example of small
ants. They say, “All necessary things, required by the human being should be in
our possession. Power and strength, wealth and property are our right. We should
never let the poor and the feeble be powerful before us, so that, keeping them
our necessitous, we may affect our purpose as much and as we wish by means of
them.
The second observance, which
belongs to Islam, remains the best at the end; however some difficulties may be
borne in the beginning. Everything is going well in the beginning too, but it
results ease and happiness completely in future. These true but harsh words
have been described in these verses, because “The niggard who gives a quick
refusal is better than the benevolent who procrastinates”.
Allah Almighty commands that if
those, who say themselves “the People of the Scripture” had believed and warded
off evil, then surely He would have remitted their sins from them, they might
have gotten opportunity of ease and comfort in the world, and He would have
brought them into Gardens of Delight on the Day of Resurrection. They would not
have to do more because they had already the Heavenly Scriptures. If they would
have acted upon them correctly then today, all of their matters were to be
correct, because it has been written in their Scriptures clearly and their
Prophets and Messengers (peace be upon Them) have caused to understand them
that the Last Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him) will
appear in the Arab. You should follow and obey Him (grace, glory, blessings and
peace be upon Him).
It is correct that some people
of them are sensible and they acted upon their own Scripture and embraced
Islam. But maximum people of them are doing such deeds, which are injurious to
the humanity, and foundation of their livelihood depends upon the first
observance, which wants to make the entire mankind selfish.
