Searching Pleasure of Allah
Surah
‘Al-Baqarah (The Cow) – Chapter – 2)
‘A-‘uu-zu Billaahi minash-Shay-taanir- Rajiim.
(I seek refuge in God from Satan the outcast.)
(I seek refuge in God from Satan the outcast.)
Bis-Millaahir-Rah-maanir-Rahiim.
(In the name of God, the Beneficent, the Merciful.)
وَمَثَلُ ٱلَّذِينَ يُنفِقُونَ أَمْوَٰلَهُمُ ٱبْتِغَآءَ مَرْضَاتِ ٱللَّهِ وَتَثْبِيتًا مِّنْ أَنفُسِهِمْ كَمَثَلِ جَنَّةٍۭ بِرَبْوَةٍ أَصَابَهَاوَابِلٌ فَـَٔاتَتْ أُكُلَهَا ضِعْفَيْنِ فَإِن لَّمْ يُصِبْهَا وَابِلٌ فَطَلٌّ وَٱللَّهُ بِمَا تَعْمَلُونَ بَصِيرٌ 265
265. And the likeness of those who spend their wealth in
search of Allah’s pleasure, and for the strengthening of their souls, is as
the likeness of a garden on a height. The rainstorm smiteth it and it
bringeth forth its fruit twofold. And if the rainstorm smite it not, then a
shower would be enough. And Allah is Seer of what ye do.

Commentary
God Almighty has
described in this verse about those people who spend their wealth only for the
purpose that Allah Almighty may be pleased, they may get His pleasure and prove
their obedience.
Allah Almighty
illustrated the likeness of those people with the garden, which is situated on
a height; air of that place is naturally witty and productive. The
rainstorm smites it and this garden brings forth its fruit twofold. Moreover,
if the rainstorm does not smite it; and drops only a shower, then only that shower
would be enough, even then it will bring some fruit.
Here, the likeness of
rainstorm has been given as spending the wealth, and the purpose of telling the
garden on a height is that his intention is entirely pure. He spends only for
the Will of Allah Almighty. Therefore, if he spends his wealth in abundance,
then its result will also be as good as the rainstorm smites the garden and it
brings fruit twofold. In the form of clear intention, if he spends a little,
even then, he will get reward equally; as due to only drizzling; the garden
certainly brings also some fruit.
Another reality has
been described here that as the humankind inclines from badness to evil, like
this, he turns with good action towards the goodness and naturally, he remains
steadfast on the goodness.
Fortunate are those
people who advance towards the goodness and refrain from the badness.
We should never forget
it that the biggest sacrifice of spending the wealth is wasted due to the
concept of in-sincerity, by showing kindness and putting someone in trouble.
On the other side, a
little Alms-giving is much fruitful on the condition that the purpose of it is
only to do one’s duty and the pleasure of Allah Almighty.
