Commentary
Allah Almighty commanded to
Prophet Moses (peace be upon Him) after hearing His supplication: My wrath and
My Mercy is not specified for any particular nation, class, sect, tribe or
community. Its concern is with personal deeds of every individual.
Mercy is for everyone and every
time in any form, but punishment is only for those people whose acts become
worst entirely. Anguish is not subdued upon anyone at every time. However, My
Mercy embraces every creature at every time.
Moreover, as You (Moses – peace
be upon Him) wish for Your nation i.e. the Children of Israel, that they should
remain superior to all other people in the world as well as in the Hereafter
and gain the respect of both worlds, so We have specified this Mercy for only
those people who try to abstain from ill-deeds having fear of Allah Almighty,
who pay some portion of their wealth to the needy and poor people (poor-due and
alms), and who know Us (God Almighty) by reciting Our Revelations and observing
Our Tokens and believe; that aim of Allah Almighty to manifest the Revelations
and Token is; that the mankind should recognize Him. Human being should accept
Him Creator, Lord and Master of own and entire creatures.
It found that existence of
anything in the world is not possible without His (God’s) common Mercy,
whereas, the special Mercy, which means goodness of both worlds, superiority
and respect of this world and the Hereafter, that is only for the human being,
but it is specified with some conditions, some of which are as under:
· Being saved from the evil deeds. It means that movements like animals, that
is to say; jumping, merry-making, fighting, wandering uncontrolled and freely,
eating and drinking like the cattle, fulfilling the desire, takes the humankind
away from specific Mercy of Allah Almighty.
· Hoarding not the wealth, but paying out from
it a portion for the poor and helpless people. It aims that ambition of the wealth is basis of disgrace and
misery.
· Recognizing Allah Almighty by listening to His
Revelations and viewing His Signs and believing in Him. Without belief in Allah Almighty, human
being cannot attain peace.
