Commentary
In those days, when Messenger
of Allah Almighty, Muhammad (grace, glory, blessings and peace be
upon Him) came in the world, nearly the human beings of the entire world had
been going wrong and passing their lives like wild animals, forgetting the
human characteristics. Powerful people had become ferocious. They used to deal
with the weak and the poor as with sheep and goat. Greedy eyes of everyone used
to rise towards comfortable and tasteful things of the world. Every person
wished that the entire things should come under his and his followers’ control,
and remaining entire people should dwell as their slaves and servants. They
should serve the powerful people like oxen, horses and donkeys.
The same condition was also in
the Arab territory. Some people had become rich and powerful, but they could
not make others their slaves completely. So, Islam, which desires equality and
equation among the entire human beings, was required to be started from the
Arab territory only, because some glare of freedom had come there into sight.
This lesson of Islam “All human
beings are equal (among themselves) mutually”, caused to startle the effectual
and wealthy people of Makkah, and they saw clearly the death of
their honor and magnificence. Therefore, they decided to oppose the Messenger
of Allah Almighty (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him).
After describing this condition
of their deception, it has been replied. Sometimes they used to say: Any Angel
would have come as Messenger from Allah. At some other times they used to
say: Bring down any portent if you are a Messenger, so that everyone may
believe in you at once.
It is commanded that the
disbelievers demand any extraordinary portent from You (grace, glory, blessings
and peace be upon Him). Tell them that Allah Almighty is Able
to send down any portent according to your demands, but this demand is a proof
of your stupidity. Maximum of you are such people, who are totally un-aware of
the principles and rules, in accord with which the world has been created. The
wisdom and sense has been bestowed to the mankind more than all other
creatures, and the entire world has been filled with such portents, to which,
if the human being reflect a little, can recognize immediately. The humankind
is not as a donkey, which can understand only with a whip or stick, which does
not understand the language of signs. Your claim of clear portent is against
the humanity. It can be said by any donkey only: Beat me with a stick, if you
want to take any work from me, without it I will never work.
