۞بِسۡمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ
Whatever program we initiate in our life, will be as per the Pre-directed Guidelines of Allah, the Most Benevolent and the Most Merciful. (6:162)
Pre-Note: As already stated “Dharma” will have to fight with evil forces to establish the rule. Because man is given self-power and freedom, he creates a social system of his own and lives accordingly. That is what he considers to be the masterpiece of culture.
Whenever an ideology is introduced in a society as per His Guidance, many people will not understand its benefits. So, they will protest based on whether to abandon the ancestral tradition. And some will oppose this new social arrangement for fear of losing their position, status, wealth, and luxurious life. This is nothing new. These are protests that have been raging for a long time. That is what happened to all the reformists. It still happens that way. This chapter begins by putting forward historical evidence on the subject of such protests.
95:1وَٱلتِّينِ وَٱلزَّيۡتُونِ١
95:1. O Social Reformist! “Theen” the mountainous region where the reformist Nooh Nabi commenced his mission and “Zaithoon” the Hilly region where the reformist Easa Nabi commenced his mission -
95:2وَطُورِ سِينِينَ٢
95:2. “Thoor” the mountainous region where reformist Moosa Nabi commenced his mission – If you enquire about the upheaval that arose when these reformists tried to bring about reformation,
95:3وَهَٰذَا ٱلۡبَلَدِ ٱلۡأَمِينِ٣
95:3. In the same way, the people of Makkah protest against the guidance and reforms which are being brought forward.
That is to say, this guidance (2:125) which is preached for world peace is being opposed in this city as well. (6: 112) Even today when the teachings of the Quran are quoted, protests will arise.
95:4لَقَدۡ خَلَقۡنَا ٱلۡإِنسَٰنَ فِيٓ أَحۡسَنِ تَقۡوِيمٖ٤
95:4. Because Rabbu has created man most beautifully according to His plan, the ability to live with full independence.
95:5ثُمَّ رَدَدۡنَٰهُ أَسۡفَلَ سَٰفِلِينَ٥
95:5. But because of his selfish tendencies, according to the canon of Rabbu, the humanity that should be with him vanishes from him and evil habits grow in him. So he goes down to the substandard level.
Our guidance that is revealed to you seeks humanity to grow in the people again. But the selfish crowd refuses to accept it and opposes it. This intensifies the conflict between those who accept guidance and those who oppose it. Eventually, the crowd with high ambitions wins and following it, there is a renaissance in that society. Then, over time, selfishness begins to take root in them. So, again life-like beasts grow in them. So this is how the historical cycle has been revolving. (See 39:23) If you are to permanently remove the selfish tendencies that have developed among the people and bring them to a higher level of moral dignity,
95:6إِلَّا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ وَعَمِلُواْ ٱلصَّٰلِحَٰتِ فَلَهُمۡ أَجۡرٌ غَيۡرُ مَمۡنُونٖ٦
95:6. You have to build society according to the guidance given by Rabbu. You need to come up with more creative social welfare schemes and pave the way for all to work together. As a result of their continuous efforts, the disorders in that society will be removed and it will gradually rise to be a better society. This growth available to them will never falter. (11: 108) & (84: 25)
We also need to continue to explain the benefits of the guidance and its benefits to the people, youngsters, and students through the collective assembling system and building social cohesion. Only then can a lasting solution to the aforementioned deplorable condition be found.
95:7فَمَا يُكَذِّبُكَ بَعۡدُ بِٱلدِّينِ٧
95:7. What evidence can they disprove, even though they have been given so much historical evidence and creative health plans regarding the terms of the “consequences of human action” that Rabbu has ordained?
95:8أَلَيۡسَ ٱللَّهُ بِأَحۡكَمِ ٱلۡحَٰكِمِينَ٨
95:8. When the law of "consequences for human deeds" prescribed by Allah bears witness to the fact that no authority other than Allah is in force in this world, what doubt do they have for the final judgment which will take place accordingly?
Postscript: Therefore, the treasury of Qur’anic guidance is to establish a superior social system and rule accordingly. Dominance and authority in that regime (Sovereignty) belong to the laws prescribed by Allah - that law must be subject to Qur’anic principles. Only with this series of teachings can human dignity be perpetuated in a country. It can save people from developing selfishness. Man has no other option but to follow this.
