Commentary
As a reply to the supplication
of Jesus (peace be upon Him), Allah Almighty commanded: I shall send
it (the Table Spread) down for you, but bear it in mind that whoso will
disbelieve of you afterward, him surely will I punish with a punishment
wherewith I shall not punish any of My creatures.
After this, there is no
description in the Holy Qur’aan whether the Table Spread of
Food was sent down or otherwise, because only those matters have been mentioned
in the Holy Qur’aan, which have any guidance for the humankind. A
very useful matter has been explained in the supplication of Jesus (peace be
upon Him) and its reply, which needs special attention of the human being. It
could not be decided till today that whether the Table Spread with Food was
sent down or not. Some persons say: That was sent down but the people did not
thank God. Those people were punished and that was stopped sending down. Some
of them have opinion: The people frightened after hearing the reply of the
supplication of Jesus (peace be upon Him) and they took back their request.
We have been
taught many useful matters in it. At first, if the Messengers (peace be upon
Them) are helpless before Allah Almighty, then what is the position of
those friends (saints) of Allah Almighty, who are called ‘Awliyaaa’.
We should understand properly the difference between the Creator and the
creature. The Messengers (peace be upon Them) and ‘Awliyaaa’ (Saints)
(may God be Kind upon them) all are servants of Allah Almighty and He
is The Ruler over all of the creatures. The Servants can supplicate only.
Accepting or rejecting the supplication is in the Power
of Allah Almighty. The aim from it is to falsify the claim of the
Christians that “Jesus (peace be upon Him) is son of God (God Forbid). And we
would have to learn from it that there is much difference between Allah Almighty
(God) and the servant. Besides this, there is another lesson to be learnt that
the human being should earn the wealth by those ways, which have been
determined lawful, and for this purpose everyone must have to do at least some
labor. One should not try or wish to get sustenance, in a state of ease and
comfort, by supplications and uncommon ways etc., because it is not easy to be
thankful to Him and the end of being thankless is not other than His wrath. And
the biggest wrath is that the mankind becomes proud, Satan or mere animal.
