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

In the previous verses, after
causing to know many commandments, Allah Almighty addresses to His Messenger
(grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him), “It doesn’t matter if either
the people believe or otherwise. You should not be grief due to their
wickedness. Certainly the Holy Qur’aan is a collection of good
advices for the mankind. If the people do not believe in it, then it is their
stupidity and foolishness”.
If the giver is sure that he
has a thing which is advantageous and profitable for all, but the person, who
has to take it, refuses from taking it, then nothing can be seen in him but his
folly. These people have made up their mind that they would take only that
thing, which is useful; particularly for them only. What can be more stupidity
of a mankind than it? Surely they, who know, will like that thing, which is
useful equally for all, and will desire only the quantity of profit, which is
equal to others.
That person, who wants that he
should receive everything and leave other entire persons longing, is an animal
like dogs and beasts of prey. And the person, who wishes that he and his friend
should take only, but remaining all people should remain entreating, is like a
crow, but he is also mere an animal. It is suitable for the human being that he
should take to the extent of his need only, after providing with the
necessities of every person. Advantage of everyone is in it only and the
dependence of the morality is also only upon it. It is the fundamental stone of
that Revelation, which was revealed upon the Messenger Muhammad (grace, glory,
blessings and peace be upon Him). It is compulsory to communicate this Message
to the entire human beings, whether they understand it or not. So it has been
admonished strictly in this verse.
Allah Almighty commands, “O
Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him)! Make known (the
people, entire) that, which has been revealed unto You from Your Lord”
(verbally as well as acting upon it too), because these are the actual meanings
of conveying the Message. Otherwise, saying by tongue only, but acting not upon
it by oneself, does not have any sense. If You did not convey this Message
properly, this responsibility will remain on Your charge and it will be said,
“You did not render the due of this Message”. However, those people, who do not
listen to You and oppose, You should not have any concern with them. They can
never harm You, but will harm themselves. Allah Almighty will protect you from
them and preserve you from their wickedness.
You should not be efficacious
from it that neither they listen to you, and nor obey you. It is luck of
everyone. Some are fortunate, while the others have bad luck. The Belief, which
is like the Wealth, is not in their fate, because it has been known due to
their disobedience of Allah’s Word that they have adopted the path of
infidelity and they like to remain Infidels. It is the Divine’s Law that the
ways of guidance have been closed for them, who desire to remain
Infidels.
A clear commandment comes out
from this lesson for the Muslims that they should produce themselves by making
themselves a pattern of Islam, then invite the people for it. If they will not
do so, they will be guilty of two crimes. At first, that they did not act upon
it themselves and secondly, they did not fulfill their duty to carry the Message
of Islam to non-believers.
