124. And when a token cometh unto them, they say: We will
not believe till we are given that which Allah’s Messengers are given. Allah
knoweth best with whom to place His message. Humiliation from Allah and heavy
punishment will smite the guilty for their scheming.

Commentary
It was described previously
that those people who are rich and have dignity, do not let them do their work,
who say true and straight. They conspire in such a way that those persons who
say the truth, neither they may advance and nor their matter may ever be
promoted.
The influential people of Makkah used
to do this practice and had become so much rebellious that they used to say to
the Messenger of Allah Almighty (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon
Him): We are rich and honorable. If there were messengers, those would be we.
Neither You are rich, nor famous and nor have dignity, how have You been
Messenger? They have been replied in this verse.
It is commanded: Observe their
condition. When Our Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him)
brings unto them any verse or token, they say moving their head proudly: we
shall never believe in Your sayings till we are inspired also as the Messengers
(peace be upon Them) are inspired. And about that which you say; we should also
be given that which Allah’s Messengers are given because we are more deserving
of messenger-hood than You; being wealthy and influential.
Allah Almighty commands: Say to
them O Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him)! Allah
Almighty has more knowledge than you about that person, who is more deserving
of Messenger-hood and with whom to place His message. There is no value of
being rich and high with Allah Almighty. You, who are drunk with wealth, reject
the truth and say flippantly: If Allah desires to guide us; He will send His
message directly unto us by means of His Angels. We do not accept the sayings
of the people like You (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him) (God
forbid).
You will be cursed by Allah
Almighty due to the retaliation of your flippancy and haughtiness. Humiliation
from Allah and heavy punishment will smite you being guilty of your scheming.
Your treacheries, schemes, frauds and lacks of gravity will bloom. You will
live in the middle of nowhere during this worldly life and taste most severe
punishment on the Day of Resurrection.
Allah – how much a strange and
intoxicant thing is this wealth of the world and dignity that a mankind becomes
quite blind and deaf? As long it does not fall to someone’s lot, neither the
eyes are opened and nor the ears. Allah Almighty save all of us from this
misfortune and depravity, and teach the rich correct use of the wealth. Amen
(so be it).
