Quran Chapter 3- 140b & 141 (Pt-4, Stg-1) (L-462) - درس قرآن

God does not love the wrongdoers

Surah ‘Aali-‘Im-raan (The Family of ‘Imran) – Chptr – 3) 

‘A-‘uu-zu  Billaahi minash-Shay-taanir- Rajiim.
(I seek refuge in God from Satan the outcast)

Bis-Millaahir-Rah-maanir-Rahiim.
(In the name of God, the Beneficent, the Merciful)

إِن يَمْسَسْكُمْ قَرْحٌ فَقَدْ مَسَّ ٱلْقَوْمَ قَرْحٌ مِّثْلُهُۥ وَتِلْكَ ٱلْأَيَّامُ نُدَاوِلُهَا بَيْنَٱلنَّاسِ وَلِيَعْلَمَ ٱللَّهُ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَيَتَّخِذَ مِنكُمْ شُهَدَآءَ وَٱللَّهُ لَا يُحِبُّ ٱلظَّٰلِمِينَ 140

وَلِيُمَحِّصَ ٱللَّهُ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَيَمْحَقَ ٱلْكَٰفِرِينَ 141

140b.  that Allah may know those who believe and may choose witnesses from among you. And Allah loveth not wrongdoers- 141.  And that Allah may prove those who believe, and may blight the disbelievers.

140b.  Wa  liya’-lamAllaahul-laziina  ‘aa-manuu  wa  yattakhiza  minkum  shuhadaaa’.  Wallaahu  laa  yuhibbuz-Zaalimiin- 141.  Wa  li-yumahhi-sAllaahul-laziina  ‘aamanuu  wa  yamhaqal-kaarifiin.

Commentary

      

Allah Almighty keeps up changing the days of suffering and ease in different nations for the purpose that He may know the truly Believers and Hypocrites. The Believer trusts in Allah Almighty during the days of calamity and trouble also. He has faith in patience and constancy, remains persevering in belief and credence, and desiring victory and support from Allah Almighty. On the contrary, the Infidels and Hypocrites become very much confused during the days of trouble and distress. They become very active to help the false and spurious for their personal advantage and to save their own lives.

Bear in mind that Allah Almighty never loves the tyrants and oppressors. You should never think that Allah Almighty loves the Idolaters because of which they acquired (casual) success in the Battle of ‘Uhud. On no account, it is like this, but there are some other causes of their success. One object of coming calamity upon the Muslims is too that Allah Almighty purifies the Believers and ruins the Infidels. Victory and defeat is a changing. Giving higher rank of martyrdom to the Muslims, to examine the Believers and Hypocrites, to purify the Muslims from sins and to ruin gradually the Infidels was the actual aim.

Today too when we observe that the Muslims have been suffering from the mountains of miseries and calamities, and the non-Muslim nations are in the way of prosperity and improvement, then some people begin to say, “they are better than us, Allah Almighty is contented to them, He is displeased upon us”. Whereas reality is different, actual aim is that the Muslims should assert more humility and weakness in the Court of Allah Almighty, they should repent of sins and try to correct their circumstances, so that the Infidels and the disobedient become target of Allah’s wrath and rage.

In short, there are four objects of trial and examination:

1.   Allah Almighty may know, “Who are the Believers and whose faith is strong”.

2.   Who present evidence of their belief?

3.   The Believers should be purified.

4.   The Infidels and the enemies of the religion should be destroyed.
