Commentary
Many enemies had been born as
soon as the religion Islam came into existence. Its main cause was that those
people were desirous of only worldly advantages. They wished, “Only we would
have to remain excelling above all. Others should serve us under our command
and as we say, they should do”. There was no any better result of this desire
other than that they used to quarrel with one another every time and obtain the
commodities of necessity by snatching from other people.
Islam was desirous to remove
these evils and mischief, and to lead them towards the way of mutual
brotherhood by assembling all of them on one thought. The selfish people
observed their death in it. Everyone conceived, “Chance of our leadership
can never come by living in such a cordial manner”.
The most selfish; out of them
were the Jews. So they were the most vehement of Islam in hostility. After
them, there were the Idolaters of the Arab. They were ignorant and illiterate.
While educated people, like the Jews began to oppose, then how could they had
to remain behind? They quarreled against the Muslims as much as they could.
Reason of these circumstances has been revealed for information of the
Messenger of Allah Almighty (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him). It
is commanded that the most vehement of the Muslims in hostility are the Jews
and the Idolaters because they are consummate selfish.
However the Christians are not
too much mortal foe, as the Christian King Negus of Ethiopia gave
shelter to the Muslims. Other Christian Kings like Rome etc. did not do
insolence of the Messages sent by the Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and
peace be upon him). On the contrary, the Jews troubled the Muslims very much,
poisoned the Messenger of Allah Almighty (grace, glory, blessings and peace be
upon him) and tried to kill Him intentionally, when He was careless. They
supported the Idolaters during war. So it is known that the Jews and the
Idolaters are more hardhearted, and opposite to them; the Christians are more
softhearted and sensible.
