So woe to those who disbelieved from the scene of a tremendous Day
According to this narration low selling is next to kufr, polytheism.
Then it describes the low sellers and said:
รรกรธรณรรถรญรครณ ร
รถรรณร รรรบรรณรรกรตรฆรรบ รรณรกรณรฌ รรกรครธรณรรรถ รญรณรรบรรณรฆรบรรตรฆรครณ (83:2
They are the people who at the time of purchase they buy it on accurate measure and take their right wholly.
รฆรณร
รถรรณร รรณรรกรตรฆรฅรตรฃรบ รรณรฆ รฆรธรณรรณรครตรฆรฅรตรฃรบ รญรตรรบรรถรรตรฆรครณ (83:3
And when they want to measure for others (to sell) they weigh the lesser amount.
In the olden days the buyers used to use
หیรก โkailโ for measuring their goods. As they used to measure by the scales (
รรรรรฆ) there was not any big scale to measure the large quantity but they were big standard containers to measure the large quantity. The large measuring containers were very scarce in those times. (In the chapter of โkurโ to measure the depth of water it was a name of measuring vessel for water.)
For example if the worker or employee steals some of his duty on the job (by working less) he too comes in the category of
รฃรตรรณรรธรถรรถรญรครณ and low sellers. In this Sura the Mighty God extremely criticized and condemned them.
Hence the famous companion of prophet Abdullah bin Masood said: The namaz also comes under the category of measurement. The one who pays its full measure the merciful God bestows him complete reward. And the one who reduce its measure Allah brings him under the category of
รฃรตรรณรรธรถรรถรญรคand low sellers.
รรณรกรณร รญรณรรตรครธรต รรตรฆรกรณรรถรรณ รรณรครธรณรฅรตรฃ รฃรธรณรรบรรตรฆรรตรฆรครณ (83:4
Do not they believe that they will be made to rise from the graves?
รกรถรญรณรฆรบรฃรฒ รรณรรถรญรฃรฒ (83:5
That day which is extraordinary great and extremely magnanimous.
รรณรกรณร รญรณรรตรครธรต รรตรฆรกรณรรถรรณ รรณรครธรณรฅรตรฃ รฃรธรณรรบรรตรฆรรตรฆรครณ (83:4
When the people rise from their graves and stand in the presence of the God, the provider the whole universe.
It means that if they have believed in the Day of Judgment and knows that they will be made to stand before the book of their deeds to give account of their virtues acts. Then all his deeds are recorded for the trail in the great court of justice of Almighty God and anyone who committed a minute act like the point of the needle that person will view that deed before his eyes.
In that case they were not committing cruelty and injustice and not violating the rights of the innocent people. These negligent and heedless sinners not only they have any faith in the resurrection day but they donโt even think about it.
The points
>>=/-/the low selling is the source of the corruption, exploitation & debasement /-/>>=
The ayaat of noble Quran repeatedly criticized and condemned the low sellers. Often we read in the history of prophet Shueb alaihis salam where he addressed the people of his nation and said: Give the measurement rightly and do not give loss, disadvantages and deprivation to others. Weigh the selling product with the right balance (รรรรรฆ), do not deprive people of their rights and do not commit corruption on the land.
Likewise low selling is leaving justice aside while measuring and scaling the selling product comes in the category of the people who spread corruption in the nation. It is one of the causes for creating social upheaval and corruption.
The great principals and rectors of Islam stressed upon the importance of measuring rightly. In a famous narration from Asbag bin Nabateh who said: I have heard from Ali alaihis salam who stated: O people first learn the jurisprudence (system of laws) and then start the business transaction. Imam repeated these words thrice and at the end he added and said: Tajir is Fajir (businessman is immoral) he is the dweller of the hell except the one who give the people their rights accurately and receives his right properly from the people.
In another hadees from imam Baqir alaihis salam it is quoted that when ameerul momineen was residing in the city of Kufa every day he used to pass along the bazaar of kufa and carry a whip on his shoulder for the punishment of the wrongdoers. In the middle of every bazaar he used to stand and announce in loud voice: O the group of business people! Fear Allah. When the people used to hear the loud command of Ali alaihis salam they used to leave aside whatever was in their hands and pay attention to his voice wholeheartedly. He used to say: Seek the blessings from the Merciful God, make the life of the people easy and seek abundance, keep yourself close to the buyers, make the toleration, adornment of your character, avoid to swear, abstain from untruth and lying, refrain from brutality and unjust manners, secure the right of the innocent people, do not go near the money of interest, give the measure rightly with complete fidelity, do not reduce the weights of the peoples commodity and do not spread corruption on the land.
After walking around the bazaars of the city of Kufa he used to return to the house of administration to solve the judicial matters and reach to the grievances of the people.
Holy prophet Muhammad sallallaho alaihi va ala alehi said: Those who sell lower than fixed Lord of Lords will snatch their agriculture from them and they will get afflicted with draught and scarcity of food products.
One of the causes of the destruction, collapse and the torment of the nations is to sell lesser the amount than the measure and its cost appointed, that is low selling as it is the cause of crumbling and shattering their economic system and the descend of the calamity and distress from the Omnipotent God.
Even in the Islamic historical reports it is written that it is better for the believers while weighing the measure to give more quantity and when receiving the right of their measure to take the lesser amount.
In another way as mentioned in the description of the above ayaat the matter of low selling had vast and boundless meaning that is every kind of deduction in the commitment of the duty of the Job or individual or social or spiritual obligations.
It is a record in which every deed of man is written
รรถรรณรรรฑ รฃรธรณรรบรรตรฆรฃรฑ (83:9
No deed is big or small; every deed is recorded without any reduction.
According to a narration by รรถรรธรถรญรครฑ which means that it is a precise and universal book in which all the deeds of the people are recorded together. The acts of all the evil doers are written in a book named Sijjin รรถรรธรถรญรครฑ and the acts of good deeds of all the righteous people are wholly registered in a book called Illin รรถรกรธรถรญรธรถรญรครณ.
รรถรรธรถรญรครฑ is taken from the mother word รรรค that is prison. It has various meanings such as the severe imprisonment or every strong and firm human being or the dreadful valley in the depth of hell or the place where the files of the peopleโs evil deeds are placed and the hellโs fire.
It is interpreted that the รรถรรธรถรญรค is a book which has total bad deeds in which the Mighty God had written the complete practices of the polytheists and the wrong doers among the human beings and the jinn.
From some other ayaat we find out that the deeds of the people are recorded and saved in many copies so that while giving the accounts there should not be any excuse for anybody.
The file of deeds first is given to those to whom that file belongs. To the righteous people the file of deeds will be given in their right hand and to the evil doers the file of deeds will be given to their left hand. Most of the ayaat of Quran pointed towards that fact.
It is a book we can say, is named the deeds file of the nations. In Sura e Jasia in the ayat 28 as it is referred:
รฆรณรรณรรณรฌ รรตรกรธรณ รรตรฃรธรณรรฒ รรณรรรถรญรณรรฐ รรตรกรธรต รรตรฃรธรณรรฒ รรตรรบรรณรฌ ร
รถรกรณรฌ รรถรรณรรรถรฅรณร รรกรบรญรณรฆรบรฃรณ รรตรรบรรณรฆรบรครณ รฃรณร รรตรครรตรฃรบ รรณรรบรฃรณรกรตรฆรครณ (45:28)
45:28
And you will see each nation humbled to their knees (kneeling), each nation will be called to its record (of deeds). This Day you shall be recompensed for what you used to do.
The Day of Judgment every nation will be called with their file of deeds and practices.
The two files of deeds one of which commonly belong to the evil doers by the name Sijjin and the other one belongs to the people of righteous character by the name Illin.
Sijjin is the collection of all the books in which the deeds of the evil doers and the results of their practices are recorded. May be this book is saved in the last depth of the hell and on the contrary, the book of the virtuous and kind people is kept on the highest of the Paradise heights.
In a hadees from imam Baqir alaihis salam we read: Sijjin is the seventh floor under the ground and Illin is the seventh floor up in the heaven.
In some narrations it is mentioned: the deeds which are not capable of coming near to God will tumble down and settles itself in the Sijjin.
Hence in a narration it is mentioned: Sometimes when an angel delightfully and mirthfully carries the act of a human being high on the heaven the Eternal God informs the angel and says: Save his deeds in the Sijjin as the aim of this human being was not to gain my consent and approval.
The result of all these narrations is that the Sijjin is the lowest place in the hell where deed files of evil doers are saved and finally those people will be imprisoned in that same place.
According to some narrations Sijjin is the record of the collection of the evil deeds of the people and by another interpretation it is a pit of the hell or the depth of the earth.
In the initial ayat the low sellers รฃรตรรณรรธรถรรถรญรครณ (those who takes more money and give lesser product to the buyers) were mentioned, in the second phase of the Surah the evil doers
รรกรรตรรธรณรรรถ were discussed and then the liars Mukazzabin รฃรตรรณรรธรถรรถรญรค were described. They are those who denied the judgment day. This clearly shows that there is connections between this believe (denying the judgment day), the practice (low selling) and the following ayaat evidently sketched them.
The sins are the rust coating of the hearts
They are those who denied the Day of Judgment.
รรกรธรณรรถรญรครณ รญรตรรณรรธรถรรตรฆรครณ รรถรญรณรฆรบรฃรถ รรกรรธรถรญรครถ (83:11
And then it adds: Only those people who deny the Day of Judgment they are the sinners and they exceed the limits (appointed by God).
รฆรณรฃรณร รญรตรรณรรธรถรรต รรถรฅรถ ร
รถรกรธรณร รรตรกรธรต รฃรตรรบรรณรรฒ รรณรรถรญรฃรฒ (83:12
proves the continuation and nonstop practice of the sin. รรณรรถรญรฃรฒ The word
They want to continue their ugly deeds with complete liberty and without any pressure or disturbance of the conscience or any feeling for their duty and they do not want to accept any kind of official law.
It is mentioned in Sura e Qiyamat ayat 5:
รรณรกรบ รญรตรรถรญรรต รรกรบร
รถรครรณรรครต รกรถรญรณรรบรรตรรณ รรณรฃรณรรฃรณรฅรต (75:5)
75:5
But man desires to continue in sin.
The man wants to continue his way of evil practices in his future life, hence he denies the day of resurrection. This meaning will get clear in the following ayaat. The same way as the belief had its effects on the deeds of man, in the same manner the evil practices too have its influence in molding the faith.
In the following ayat it describes those who do not believe in the judgment day and adds: When our ayat are read for them they say: These are the baseless fables and topics of the ancient people.
ร
รถรรณร รรตรรบรกรณรฌ รรณรกรณรญรบรฅรถ รรญรณรรรตรครณร รรณรรกรณ รรณรรณรรรถรญรรต รรกรบรรณรฆรธรณรกรถรญรครณ (83:13
Besides trespassing their limits and being sinners, they condemn and ridicule them (the prophets). They prove that they are the collection of stories and fictions and introduce them as baseless words which are remained from the prime period of man (the era of ignorance).
Not only their thinking is in such manner but their evil deeds had rusted all over their heart and they are helpless to realize the fact.
รรณรกรธรณร รรณรกรบ รรณรรครณ รรณรกรณรฌ รรตรกรตรฆรรถรฅรถรฃ รฃรธรณร รรณรรครตรฆร รญรณรรบรรถรรตรฆรครณ (83:14)
รรณรรครณ is taken from the mother word รรณรญรครณ the coat which covers the precious things just like the rust upon the iron which destroys the brightness and its liveliness.
In the following ayat it says further: It is not true what they think but on that day they are the curtains between them and God! The Creator and Maintainer
รรณรกรธรณร ร
รถรครธรณรฅรตรฃรบ รรณรค รรธรณรรธรถรฅรถรฃรบ รญรณรฆรบรฃรณรรถรรฒ รกรธรณรฃรณรรบรรตรฆรรตรฆรครณ (83:15
It is the most painful punishment for them as the divinely meeting with the Benevolent God, the presence before his spiritual court and closeness with him is the highly pleasurable favor and a great gift for the righteous people.
Because the rust of the evils prevailed in their heart, the sinners are deprived and away to view the beauty and graciousness of God in this world and the hereafter.
Then they certainly enter the fire of Hell and they are awaiting it.
รรตรฃรธรณ ร
รถรครธรณรฅรตรฃรบ รกรณรรณรรกรตรฆร รรกรบรรณรรถรญรฃรถ (83:16
This entry in fire is being in veils before Merciful God, it absolutely works like the fire. The deprivation to meet the Benevolent God is more blazing and burning for the human being.
In the last ayat it is mentioned: Then they will be told: this is the consequence which you proved it as false.
รรตรฃรธรณ รญรตรรณรรกรต รฅรณรรณร รรกรธรณรรถรญ รรตรครรตรฃ รรถรฅรถ รรตรรณรรธรถรรตรฆรครณ (83:17
It is mentioned in Sura e Momin or gafir ayat 35: Surat Ghāfir (The Believer) - รรฆรร รรรร
รรณรรณรกรถรรณ รญรณรรบรรณรรต รรกรกรธรณรฅรต รรณรกรณรฌ รรตรกรธรถ รรณรกรบรรถ รฃรตรรณรรณรรธรถรรฒ รรณรรธรณรรรฒ (40:35)
40:35
It is in this way that God sets a seal on every arrogant, self-exalting heart."
In another ayat of Sura e Baqra it is written in the ayat 2:7:
รรณรรณรฃรณ รรกรกรธรฅรต รรณรกรณรฌ รรตรกรตรฆรรถรฅรฃรบ รฆรณรรณรกรณรฌ รรณรฃรบรรถรฅรถรฃรบ รฆรณรรณรกรณรฌ รรณรรบรรณรรรถรฅรถรฃรบ รรถรรณรรฆรณรรฑ รฆรณรกรณรฅรตรฃรบ รรณรรณรรรฑ รรรถรญรฃรฑ (2:7)
2:7
God; has sealed their hearts and their hearing, and over their eyes is a veil; and awesome suffering awaits them.
In the Sura e Haj yat 46 we read:
รรณร
รถรครธรณรฅรณร รกรณร รรณรรบรฃรณรฌ รรกรบรรณรรบรรณรรรต รฆรณรกรณรรถรค รรณรรบรฃรณรฌ รรกรบรรตรกรตรฆรรต รรกรธรณรรถรญ รรถรญ รรกรรธรตรรตรฆรรถ (22:46
Verily, it is not the eyes that grow blind, but it is the heart which is in the breast that grows blind.
Yea the worst effect of the sin and the continuation of sin originate a dark heart, vanishes away the light of knowledge from it, and destroys the sense of recognizing the facts and committing the right judgment.
The sins pour down from the evil deeds of the limbs into heart and change it into the smelly and stinky swampland. Here the man looses the capability of differentiating the right from the wrong and begin to commit such weird mistakes and gives perplexity to each and every body. He cuts with his own hands the roots of his happiness, well being and demolishes his own welfare and bliss.
In a hadees from Prophet Muhammad sallallaho alaihi va ala alehi we read: the excess of sins causes the heart to become black and dark.
In another narration from the Holy prophet we learn: When a person commits a sin a black dot appears in the heart and the moment he repents the Omnipotent God and leaves the sinful deeds, his heart becomes polished and bright. Or if he keeps his involvement in the sin, the dark point of the heart becomes larger and finally covers the entire heart. It is the same rust which is mentioned in the ayat.
รรณรกรธรณร รรณรกรบ รรณรรครณ รรณรกรณรฌ รรตรกรตรฆรรถรฅรถรฃ รฃรธรณร รรณรรครตรฆร รญรณรรบรรถรรตรฆรครณ (83:14
In the book usul kafi it is quoted by Muhammad sallallaho alaihi va ala alehi that: meet each other, discuss and relate the narrations of the prophets and the religious spiritual leaders. Hadees causes the brightness in the hearts, polishes and brightens up the rust of the heart same as the rust is polished from the swords. The polish of heart is hadees.
Man by the incessant and continues commitments of the sins, every moment immerse in more darkness of the soul; at last he reaches the situation that his sins seems virtuous to him and often he feels proud of his evil deeds. In this stage all the ways of turning back will be closed down upon him, all the bridges behind him will be wrecked down and possibly it is the most dangerous status which the man comes across.
The sinners will be in the veils from the favors of the merciful God and deprived from his kindness, generosity and rewards. Whereas the pious and chaste get their way in the vicinity of the Beneficent God, enjoy the meeting with the beloved Almighty and view him from true inner self which is the utmost pleasure and delight for them. The faithless and sinful dwellers of hell are excluded from these glorious and unparalleled bounties and blessings of compassionate God.
Some of the pious and chaste believers even in this world enjoy the pleasure of and comfort of his (Merciful Godโs) meeting. While on the contrary the wrongdoers of blind conscious in this world itself are stripped from this gracefulness and kindness.
They (righteous people) are always in presence of the honorable God and these sightless dark hearted people are constantly away and far away from him.
They (righteous people) are forever swimming in the pleasure of chanting in his love which cannot be defined in any words. But on the other hand these sinners are so much drowned in their adversities that there is no other way for their salvation liberation and emancipation.
As said by poet: When you are unable to come out of your natural life How can you pass from the lanes of the truth?
The beauty of sweetheart had no veils and covers But wipe out the dust of the life track to sight the beloved.
Amir mominan, the commander of the pious believers Ali alaihis salam in his prayers which is famous as Dua e kumail pleaded to God, the Merciful.
Suppose I can have patience on your painful punishment but how can I tolerate to be away and separated from you.
First it mentioned the honors and privileges of the pious and righteous people and said: They do not know about the illiyin but their deed file is saved there (illiyin)
รรณรกรธรณร ร
รถรครธรณ รรถรรณรรรณ รรกรบรรณรรบรรณรรรถ รกรณรรถรญ รรถรกรธรถรญรธรถรญรครณ (83:18)
รรถรกรธรถรญรธรถรญรครณ here some of the interpreters described it as the most high place in the heaven. In a hadees we read prophet Muhammad sallallaho alaihi va ala alehi said: By รรถรกรธรถรญรธรถรญรครณ means the seventh heaven under the empyrean throne of Merciful God. In the definition of the รรถรรณรรรณ which is the last command of God and the destination of the chaste and pious people, it is the highest rank decided for them in the heaven. The file of their total deeds is kept on the raised platform on the heights of the heaven and the command of God is saved upon it, to give them the highest status in the Paradise.
Then in definition of the importance of Illiyun it adds: What do you know what the Illiyun (the loftiest place) is?
รฆรณรฃรณร รรณรรบรรณรรรณ รฃรณร รรถรกรธรถรญรธรตรฆรครณ (83:19
It pointed toward the place it (the deed file) occupied and the height of its status which is beyond the scope of fantasy and comparison of a man. No one can discover its magnanimous dimensions not even the prophet himself.
Next the Quran defined more about it and added: Illiin is the written book.
รรถรรณรรรฑ รฃรธรณรรบรรตรฆรฃรฑ (83:20
Illiin is the written matter of the collection of the excellent deeds file. This fate is certain which the God inscribed for them that they are in the highest rank of the Paradise.
Soon afterwards it is mentioned: This is the book, the people who are near to the Glorious God will sight it and give witness to it.
รญรณรรบรฅรณรรตรฅรต รรกรบรฃรตรรณรรธรณรรตรฆรครณ (83:21
The subsequent ayaat reveals clearly the people near to God รรกรบรฃรตรรณรรธรณรรตรฆรครณ they are group of selected people who have the highest status, they are the witnesses and the spectators of the deeds file of the pious and chaste people.
It is undeniable that the pious รรกรบรรณรรบรรณรรรณ are enjoying plenty of affluences and blessings which are spiritualistic and materialistic bliss that cannot be defined.
รครณรรถรญรฃรฒ proves the greatness and importance of the bounties of benevolent God.
ร
รถรครธรณ รรกรบรรณรรบรรณรรรณ รกรณรรถรญ รครณรรถรญรฃรฒ (83:22
They are leaning on the beautiful couches of the heaven and viewing the fascinating landscapes, boundless pleasures and bliss of the heaven.
รรณรกรณรฌ รรกรบรรณรรณรรรถรรถ รญรณรครรตรรตรฆรครณ (83:23)
รรกรบรรณรรณรรรถรรถ means the royal throne or the decorated couches or beds which are arranged in the bride chamber. Here it is referring to the most magnificent coaches upon which the pious people are leaning and relaxing.
รญรณรครรตรรตรฆรครณ means they view all the kindness of merciful God, his unparallel elegance and attractiveness, the various kind of the blessings and the charm of the Paradise. As the most important joy of the man is the delight for the sight and glance.
Further it is said: Whenever you see their faces you will see the freshness, cheerfulness and happiness of the bliss upon them.
รรณรรบรรถรรต รรถรญ รฆรตรรตรฆรฅรถรฅรถรฃรบ รครณรรบรรณรรณ รรกรครธรณรรถรญรฃรถ (83:24)
รครณรรบรรณรรณ means freshness and joy which is evident from the countenance of the well to do people.
After the bliss of the couches and the pleasant view, relaxation and the delight it is describing another blessing that is drink of the heavenly dwellers and added:
รญรตรรบรรณรฆรบรครณ รฃรถรค รรธรณรรถรญรรฒ รฃรธรณรรบรรตรฆรฃรฒ (83:25
The pure drink of heaven is not similar to the devilish and polluted wine of the world which creates sins and insanity but it (the heavenly drink) originates the wisdom, mirth, love, purity and kindness.
รรธรณรรถรญรรฒ gives the meaning of pure wine without any impurities and filth.
รฃรธรณรรบรรตรฆรฃรฒ means seal which ensures the clean, flawless and perfect condition of drink. Apart from that another meaning it gives, to serve in these vessels is to give the exclusive respect to the guest, the vessels which are only unsealed by the hands of the guest.
Next it added: It is sealed with the musk. รรถรรณรรฃรตรฅรต รฃรถรรบรรฑ
Not like the vessels which are sealed by the mud. When any one wants to open the seal the hands will get dirty by the mud. But the pure wine of the heaven is not the same. When the hands full of love and affection opens the seal, the entire atmosphere prevails with the perfume of the musk. Unlike the polluted wines of the world which is bitter and gives forth bad smell. After finishing the drink of heaven the breath spreads around the perfume of musk.
To get these heavenly blessings specifically this pure unimaginable wine those who desire it, must precede with each other to drink it.
รรณรครณรรรณรรถ means the competition of two person for getting a precious thing. In the book Majmaul Bahrain รรณรครณรรรณรรถ is translated as the two persons proceed with each other graciously for acquiring a thing (A healthy competition).
In the Sura e Hadid ayat 21:
รรณรรรถรรตรฆร ร
รถรกรณรฌ รฃรณรรบรรถรรณรรฒ รฃรธรถรค รรธรณรรธรถรรตรฃรบ รฆรณรรณรครธรณรรฒ รรณรรบรรตรฅรณร รรณรรณรรบรรถ รรกรรธรณรฃรณรร รฆรณรรกรบรรณรรบรรถ
57:21
Race toward forgiveness from your Lord and a Garden, whose width is like the width of the heavens and earth,
And in Sura e Ale Imran รรฆรร รรก รรฃรรรค it is written
รฆรณรรณรรรถรรตรฆรรบ ร
รถรกรณรฌ รฃรณรรบรรถรรณรรฒ รฃรธรถรค รรธรณรรธรถรรตรฃรบ รฆรณรรณรครธรณรรฒ รรณรรบรรตรฅรณร รรกรรธรณรฃรณรรฆรณรรรต รฆรณรรกรรณรรบรรต รรตรรถรรธรณรรบ รกรถรกรบรฃรตรรธรณรรถรญรครณ (3:133)
3:133
And hasten to forgiveness from your Lord and a garden as wide as the heavens and earth, prepared for the righteous.
After that the last bliss of the Paradise which is written in the continuation of this ayat and said:
รฆรณรฃรถรรณรรรตรฅรต รฃรถรค รรณรรบรครถรญรฃรฒ (83:27
This pure wine is mixed with Tasneem รรณรรบรครถรญรฃรฒ.
รรณรญรบรครฐร รญรณรรบรรณรรต รรถรฅรณร รรกรบรฃรตรรณรรธรณรรตรฆรครณ (83:28)
รรณรรบรครถรญรฃรฒ is the superior and sheer drink of the heaven which the esteemed dwellers drinks . But for the abraar รรกรบรรณรรบรรณรรรถ it is mixed with the รรธรณรรถรญรรฒ รฃรธรณรรบรรตรฆรฃรฒ rahiq makhtum that is the different variety of drink in the Paradise.
รรณรรบรครถรญรฃรฒ tasneem some say it is a river flowing downwards from the heights. Some interpreted it as the fountain flowing on the upper floors of the heaven and the others said it is a drink which pours down from the sky of the heaven.
In fact the drinks of the paradise are of different kinds, some are flowing like the rivers defined in the Quran. Some are in the sealed vessels and the most important is the drink which pours down from the sky of the heaven or from the upper floors to the downwards and is called as รรณรรบรครถรญรฃรฒ tasneem. No drink from the heaven can reach to its high status. Its deep, best and attractive effects left on the spirituality of the dwellers of the heaven. The spiritual intoxication from that drink is indefinable.
The points
Who are abrar and muqarribun
As mentioned in Sura e Ale Imran ayat 193: they are the people with deep thinking who plead to the Benevolent God to end their life like Abrar.
รฆรณรรณรฆรณรรธรณรครณร รฃรณรรณ รรกรรรบรรณรรรถ (3:193
And let us die the death of the truly virtuous!
In Sura e Dahr ayat 22 their most important rewards are declared:
ร
รถรครธรณ รฅรณรรณร รรณรรครณ รกรณรรตรฃรบ รรณรรณรร รฆรณรรณรรครณ รรณรรบรญรตรรตรฃ รฃรธรณรรบรรตรฆรรฐร (76:22)
76:22
(And it will be said to them): "Verily, this is a reward for you, and your Endeavour has been accepted."
รรณรรบรรณรรรณ abrar are those people who have vast spirituality, high courage, kind practice, good believe and รรกรบรฃรตรรณรรธรณรรตรฆรครณ muqarribun. They are near to the Merciful God and possess high ranks in the court of sovereign Lord, Allah. All รรกรบรฃรตรรณรรธรณรรตรฆรครณ muqarribun are
รรกรบรรณรรบรรณรร abrar but all รรกรบรรณรรบรรณรร abrar are not รรกรบรฃรตรรณรรธรณรรตรฆรครณ muqarribun.
In a hadees from imam Hasan Mujataba alaihis salam who stated: Wherever in the noble Quran declared the term ร
รถรครธรณ รรกรบรรณรรบรรณรรรณ innal abrar I swear by the Holy God they are Ali ibn Abi Talib (alaihis salam), Bibi Fatima (alaihis salam), I (imam Hasan Mujataba alaihis salam) and Husain (alaihis salam).
Certainly รรฃรรฅ รیรรฅ those holy five lusterโs of lights are the evident proves and the near ones. Hence in the definition of Sura e Dahr we described: This Sura particularly indicated towards amirul mominin, Ali (alaihis salam), Fatima, Hasan and Husain ( Alaihumus salam) and eighteen ayaat of it are discussing about their excellent character and virtues. However the descendent of ayat about them cannot be a hindrance for giving the common and vast moral to the ayaat.
The heavenly drinks
In many ayaat of Quran it is mentioned about the various drinks of the heaven with the different names and qualities present which are from every manner different from the polluted wines of the world. These wines erase the ability of thinking and create insanity. They are the source of enmities, bloodshed, and corruption among the people. They have bad taste, foul smell and contaminated. But the heavenly drinks cause wisdom, joy and love. They are scented and pure (purified).
The prophet told maula Ali alaihis salam: O Ali the person who leaves the liquor and intoxicating matters to gain the favors of the God. Allah! The Mighty Protector will satiate that person by the sealed and clear drinks of Eden.
The marvelous thing is in the another hadees quoted by his Excellency: Even if the person leaves for the reason other than Allah the Majestic God serves him the pure drink of Eden.
Ali alaihis salam said: I asked the prophet: Other than God? The prophet replied: The one who to protect his life, leaves the worldly liquors. God! The Forgiver, satiate that person with the drink of รรธรณรรถรญรรฒ รฃรธรณรรบรรตรฆรฃรฒ Rahiq Makhtum.
Yea those who leave the liquor for the protection of their life, in fact they are รรตรฆรบรกรถรญ รรกรรณรกรบรรณรรรถ (the wise men).
In a hadees from Ali ibnil Husain alaihis salam (hazrat Zainul Abedin): The one who satiates a thirsty believer, the Benevolent God serves that person with รรธรณรรถรญรรฒ รฃรธรณรรบรรตรฆรฃรฒ in the heaven.
In another hadees it is mentioned: The one who fasts on the hot day of the summer the Exalted God satiates him with the Rahiq Makhtum รรธรณรรถรญรรฒ รฃรธรณรรบรรตรฆรฃรฒ on the judgment day.
The interpreters about the descent of the above ayaat relates: One day hazrat Ali alaihis salam with some of his companions were passing alongside by some infidels. The infidels with some believers made fun of hazrat Ali alaihis salam and his companions and sarcastically laughed at them. At that moment the above ayaat descended.
Ibn Abbas quotes such that by the term ร
รถรครธรณ รรกรธรณรรถรญรครณ รรณรรบรรณรฃรตรฆร they are the hypocrites of the Quresh and by the term รรกรธรณรรถรญรครณ รรฃรณรครตรฆรรบ they are the Ali alaihis salam and his companions. The above ayaat is about Aliโs companions like Ammar, Khabbab, Suhaib, Bilal, and other poor believers who were ridiculed by the polytheists such as Abu jahl, Valeed bin Mughaireh, Aas bin Vail.
That day they were mocking the believers, but today
These ayaat discussed the favors and rewards for the kind and virtues people, discussed a corner of the hardships, troubles these believers underwent in this world and faced these insults only for their right believe and piety. The Quran made clear the fact that those enormous blessings are not without any reason and accounts.
These ayaat mentioned four kinds of reactions by the infidels (Kuffar).
First described: The evil doers constantly laughs at the believers
ร
รถรครธรณ รรกรธรณรรถรญรครณ รรณรรบรรณรฃรตรฆร รรณรรครตรฆรรบ รฃรถรครณ รรกรธรณรรถรญรครณ รรฃรณรครตรฆร รญรณรรบรรณรรตรฆรครณ (83:29
A sarcastic and insulting laugh and giggle which indicates their rebellious soul, pride and ignorance. The persistent hysteric laugh of the low character arrogant people before the true believers was always this manner.
Meanwhile the term (ajramu) รรณรรบรรณรฃรตรฆร is used instead of the term (kafaru) รรณรรณรรตรฆรรบ reveals the recognition of the infidels and the unbelievers. They can be first identified by their sinful practices as the kufr (blasphemy) which is the fountain head of every sin.
And described the other ugly effect of their conduct and said: When the infidels pass from the believers they mock them by their facial expressions specifically the eyes and eyebrows.
รฆรณร
รถรรณร รฃรณรรธรตรฆรรบ รรถรฅรถรฃรบ รญรณรรณรรณรรฃรณรรตรฆรครณ (83:30
With the indications and movements of their eyes and eyebrows they used to express: Look upon these barefooted, shabbily dressed and worthless people who became close to the Eternal God and claims that the divine signs had descended upon them.
รญรณรรณรรณรรฃรณรรตรฆรครณ is taken from the mother word รรณรฃรณรรณ which means expression with eyes and hands for criticizing and pointing out the flaw. They used to support each other in this matter and show gestures of fun and ridicule for the believers.
All these conflicts were with the believers and the private sessions of infidels were programmed in the same way. They were continuing there jest in their absence as the next ayat mentioned: When they were returning back to their families, they were full of joy and laugh and they were making merry with whatever they had committed.
รฆรณร
รถรรณร รรครรณรกรณรรตรฆรรบ ร
รถรกรณรฌ รรณรฅรบรกรถรฅรถรฃรต รรครรณรกรณรรตรฆรรบ รรณรรถรฅรถรญรครณ (83:31
Though the term รรณรฅรบรกรถ is commonly known as the family and close relatives but probably here it may be giving the vast meaning in which it includes close friends as well.
The other mischievous reaction of infidels before the believer was that whenever they used to see them they used to state: These people had gone astray.
รฆรณร
รถรรณร รรณรรณรฆรบรฅรตรฃรบ รรณรรกรตรฆร ร
รถรครธรณ รฅรณรรตรกรณรร รกรณรรณรรกรธรตรฆรครณ (83:32
They used to judge their thoughts, and tell themselves why to leave idol worshipping and superstitions which always prevailed among them and assumed it as guidance. They used to calculate, why to return to the belief in the Unique God and pure monotheism? In their view the cash of the worldly enjoyments is better than the promise of the gift of cash.
Same as always, at the advent of the great prophets, their religion and introducing new standards to the people, the reactions of the enemies, and the opponents appeared in the manner of mockery. They did not give any worth to the new standards introduced by the prophet and did not at all take them seriously.
And when the divine religion affected the hearts of the able people and the numbers of its followers were increasing, the opponents felt alarmed and then they started taking the new religion seriously. They intensified their conflicts and then gradually increased their intensity against them which often reached into bloody wars and armed conflicts.
Then the believers were not mostly in the high social status and they did not possess enough wealth. The infidels used to degrade them for that reason, devaluing their belief and making mockery of their religion. The noble Quran in the next ayat said: These groups are never been their patron, guardian and breadwinner of their life.
รฆรณรฃรณร รรตรรบรรถรกรตรฆร รรณรกรณรญรบรฅรถรฃรบ รรณรรรถรรถรญรครณ (83:33
In the ayat 27 of Sura e Hud we read: the affluent and the arrogant people of the prophet Nuh alaihis salam used to say:
รฆรณรฃรณร รครณรรณรรรณ รรรธรณรรณรรณรรณ ร
รถรกรรธรณ รรกรธรณรรถรญรครณ รฅรตรฃรบ รรณรรณรรรถรกรตรครณร รรณรรรถรญรณ รรกรรธรณรรบรญรถ
11:27
We do not see you but a man like ourselves, nor do we see any person who follows you but the meanest among us and they (too) followed you without thinking.
And the prophet in their reply used to say:
รฆรณรกรรณ รรณรรตรฆรกรต รกรถรกรธรณรรถรญรครณ รรณรรบรรณรรถรญ รรณรรบรญรตรครตรรตรฃรบ รกรณรค รญรตรรบรรถรญรณรฅรตรฃรต รรกรกรธรฅรต รรณรญรบรรฐร รรกรกรธรฅรต รรณรรบรกรณรฃรต รรถรฃรณร รรถรญ รรณรครรตรรถรฅรถรฃรบ
11:31
Nor do I say of those upon whom your eyes look down that Allah will never grant them any good. Allah is most knowing of what is within their souls. Indeed, I would then be among the wrongdoers."
But on the judgment day the matter is reversed hence in the next ayat it is mentioned: Today the believers will laugh at the infidels.
รรณรรกรบรญรณรฆรบรฃรณ รรกรธรณรรถรญรครณ รรฃรณรครตรฆรรบ รฃรถรครณ รรกรบรรตรรธรณรรรถ รญรณรรบรรณรรตรฆรครณ (83:34
It is the fundamental obligation of the justice to make the kind hearted and believers laugh at the stubborn, vicious and taunting infidels. This is the great torment for those haughty and arrogant people.
In some of the narrations from the prophet of Almighty Allah as it is explained: That day a door of heaven will get opened before the infidels and they assume that the order of their release from hell and the order of their entrance into the heaven is issued. Soon when they begin to move towards the door of the Heaven but before reaching suddenly the door will be get closed. And this procedure will happen repeatedly and the believers in the heaven who are watching will laugh upon it.
Hence in the other ayat it added: They are seated on the ornamented couches and watching these views.
รรณรกรณรฌ รรกรบรรณรรณรรรถรรถ รญรณรครรตรรตรฆรครณ (83:35
What are they watching? They are viewing the unending great divine favors, immense elegance and grace with respect, grandness and tranquility to the painful torments which the arrogant and egoistic infidels are inflicted in the most disgraceful and miserable manner.
Finally the last ayat expressed in the interrogative manner and said: Does the Kuffar (impious, polytheist and infidels) receive their reward of their good deeds?
รฅรณรกรบ รรตรฆรธรถรรณ รรกรบรรตรรธรณรรรต รฃรณร รรณรรครตรฆร รญรณรรบรรณรกรตรฆรครณ (83:36
Whether these words are from the Mighty God or the angels or the believers, it is a kind of sarcasm and taunt towards the prideful arrogant who were expecting rewards and appreciating their ugly deeds from the Bestowed and the Just God. For their wrong supposition and rude imagination said: Do they receive the reward for their deeds?
Some interpreters defined that the believers seated on the adorned couches and thrones and sighting that whether the unbelievers got the value of their deeds: yea if in the case they obtain the prize they are getting it from the devil, Satan. Do this imprisoned helpless creature (Satan) can impart them any reward?
They consistently mocked and made fun of the divine signs and humiliated the virtuous people. That day they must see the result of their mockery and arrogance.
Mockery, a cowardly weapon of the enemies of truth
In the history of the prophets we constantly come across the enemies of all hearing and all seeing God as their weapon was mockery. The ayaat of noble Quran repeatedly reflected this subject. The jest and ridicule are commonly issued by the people who are intoxicated by their pride, feel themselves superior to others and look others scornfully. It is not surprising when the cruel, self-centered and obstinate unbelievers use these weapons of sarcasm and criticism before the believers.
Nowadays the schedule is different; a group of people continued this attitude under the title of satire, humor and the comedy program. In todayโs modern era by the help of these old tactics they try hard to wipe away the truth and crush down the supporters of the truth from the field.
But the believers confront them coolly by relying upon the promises of Willful God whose prove is mentioned in the previous ayat of Quran. And before those dark hearted people the high spirits of believers give them a fresh breath.
Basically mocking, defamation and satire before the truth which is mentioned in the previous ayaat, comes in the category of great sins Gunah e kabira .An intelligent, alert and wise man for instance who has no connection with any of the school of believe (religion) meets (the believers) logically and never permits himself to deal with such kind of tactics.
O mighty, strong God, the defeater, protect us from the ignorance, pride and haughtiness.
O Provider of the entire favors, grant us the enthusiasm to crave for the truth, courtesy and right way.
O the Peaceful, Majestic and Supreme Being lay our deeds file in the Illiโin, the loftiest heights.
Ameen O the provider of the universe
