Refer to the commentary of Zumar: 1 and 2; Baqarah: 2 and Yusuf: 2.
The Quran is a bearer of glad tidings as well as a warner, so is the
Holy Prophet as said in Baqarah: 119; Bani Israil : 105; Furqan : 56; Ahzab
: 45; Saba: 28 and Fatir: 24, and those who are from him and he is from
them, the Ahl ul Bayt.

The consequence of their wilful rejection and belying of the revelation
created a distance between the disbelievers and the Holy Prophet who
came to teach them. This was either a superiority complex adopting the
sarcastic tone of an inferiority complex, or it expressed calculated indif-
ference to the divine guidance.

 The bringer of the message was not an angel nor a god, but, in appear-
ance, a man like them, so that there should have been no barrier between
him and his hearers. "I am a man like you" has been qualified by "it is re-
vealed to me." So a man chosen for receiving revelation and conveying it
as bashir and naghir (see commentary of 2 to 4 above) must be the
uniquely superior most individual among all the created beings, en-
dowed with very special singular powers of intellect, understanding,
wisdom, conscience and application. Like him are his true inheritors (see
commentary of Baqarah: 124). So to treat the Holy Prophet like other or-
dinary men is the policy of those who try to undermine the true position
of the Holy Prophet and his Ahl ul Bayt, in order to highlight the ordin-
ary abilities of rulers in the eyes of the people. They want to rule and
dominate. The life accounts of the Holy Prophet and his Ahl ul Bayt es-
tablish beyond all doubts that they were not like the ordinary men who
surrounded them as companions.

Aqa Mahdi Puya says:
This verse implies that even if the disbelievers give charity it cannot be
termed zakat because unless alms are given for the sake and in the way of
Allah it does not become an act of righteousness. The ungodly motives of
the disbelievers make their alms-giving a pretence or a trick to hoodwink
people and exploit them for their material gains.

In Araf: 54; Yunus: 3; Hud: 7 and Sajdah: 4; the creation is stated to
have taken place in six days. As explained in the commentary of Hajj: 47,
Sajdah: 5, Ibrahim: 5 the term yawm (day) used in various places in the
Quran is not the day of the earth, measured according to the movement
of the earth in relation to the sun. When there was no sun or suns in the
universe yawm (day) may refer to any period of time known to Allah
alone. Here it may mean stages or periods. So the two days may mean
two stages, physical and spiritual.

3
 The four days mentioned in verse 10 refer to the several stages in
which the creation of the heavens and the earth took place, and the se-
quence of the order in which the various components of the universe
were brought into existence. Refer to Baqarah: 29; Rad: 3; Nahl: 15 and
Saffat: 6.
Aqa Mahdi Puya says:
Verse 11 may refer to the theory of nebula. According to Hijr: 16 and
17 all illuminating stars are arranged in the lower heaven. Then the other
six heavens may be in the nebula.

 Refer to Araf: 65 to 72 for the people of Ad, and Araf: 73 to 79 for the
people of Thamud. It is reported by Jabir bin Abdullah Ansari that in a
meeting called by Abu Jahl the tribal chiefs of the Quraysh decided to
send a man well versed in poetry and know-how of sorcery and sooth-
saying to the Holy Prophet for a dialogue. Utbah bin Rabi-a was selected.
He came to the Holy Prophet and said: "Are you better than your ancest-
ors? Abdullah, Abdul Muttalib and Hashim did not condemn our gods.
If you are aspiring for power we will make you our supreme chief, put
our most beautiful women at your disposal, and amass mountains of
gold and silver in your courtyard." The Holy Prophet, in reply, recited
the first 18 verses of this surah. When the fate of the people of Ad and
Thamud was mentioned, Utbah requested the Holy Prophet to stop. He
stood up and left his presence. He went directly to his home. The Quray-
sh chiefs thought that Utbah had also fallen under the spell of the son of
Abdullah. They went to him and began to cast aspersion on his integrity.
In plain words he told them: "What Muhammad told me was neither po-
etry nor soothsaying. He simply recited something from the Quran. I am
afraid that if we oppose him a painful torment may also seize us."

The enemies of Allah think that if they conceal their evil deeds from
the rest of the world, nothing will happen to them, but they do not know

5
that their limbs and faculties they use for evil will be used against them
on the day of judgement. Allah knows everything.
The Holy Prophet recited verse 23 and said:
"There is not an individual in whose mind there are noble and good
thoughts and Allah is not with him to guide unto the right path."
Imam Jafar bin Muhammad as Sadiq said:
"A believer must always be in fear of Allah's wrath which throws its
victim into the fire; and he must have utmost confidence in His mercy
which takes its favourite to the eternal abode of bliss and happiness. Al-
lah is with the innermost thoughts of every individual. Noble thoughts
are rewarded and evil thoughts are punished."

Just as well-being gives more satisfaction in a congenial society of re-
joicing individuals, evil will be made to meet evil in the "hours of tor-
ment" so that those who made sin fair-seeming in this life will be there to
share in the regrets, sorrows and mutual recriminations in order to deep-
en the sorrow of eternal punishment.
Refer to Anam: 129 and 131 for the jinn. All spirits of wickedness and
the unjust among mankind will be under a common sentence.

The angels not only descend on the prophets but also on those who be-
lieve and remain steadfast. It is reported on the authority of the Ahl ul
Bayt that the angels also descend on the true believers when they die in
order to relieve the agony of death. Verse 31 confirms that they descend
on the true believers from time to time with glad tidings. Authentic tra-
ditions confirm that angels descended on Imam Husayn and his com-
rades in the battle of Karbala because it was the highest manifestation of
possible perseverance.
For verse 32 refer to Ali Imran: 198.

There is no equality or comparison between good and evil, so repel ig-
norance with wisdom, hatred with love, wickedness with kindness so
that he who is in the bondage of sin may be liberated.
The Quran guides the believers by parables and figurative expressions.
The Ahl ul Bayt are goodness incarnate. Their enemies, who persecuted
and killed not only them but their followers and devotees, symbolize
evil. There is no equality or comparison between them.

In this verse the Muslims are reminded, by being addressed through
the Holy Prophet, that discord, disharmony and deviation proceed from
evil, so to dislodge its power base they must always put up resistance,
and if the forces of evil are overwhelming, instead of giving in, they
should seek refuge in Allah who will not only keep them safe from de-
feat and disgrace, but, in the end, will create such circumstances through
which they will have an upper hand over their enemies.

Inda rabbika (with your Lord) in this verse, as in Ali Imran: 169; Rad:
39; Hijr: 21; Nahl: 96 and Anbiya: 19, refers to a distinct nature of being
in the presence of Allah. The mother book (the source of everything) is

8
with Him. There are beings in His presence who constantly praise Him
and pray to Him. This is purely a spiritual existence. Refer to Araf: 206
and Nur: 37.

Aqa Mahdi Puya says:
Truth always prevails. It spreads across to the uttermost corners of the
earth, as it did in the case of Islam. Its intensive diffusion in the hearts
and souls of people is even more extraordinary than its extensive spread.
Makka where the mission of the Holy Prophet began became the hotbed
of conspiracies and hostilities against the religion of Allah, but with a
handful of godly men of distinguished valour, among whom Ali stands

10
high and unique, the Holy Prophet destroyed the power base of evil bey-
ond recovery. Refer to the defensive battles like Badr, Uhad, Khandaq,
Khaybar, Hunayn etcetera, described in various verses of the Quran (Ali
Imran: 13, 121 to 168; Anfal: 5 and 16; Baqarah: 214, 251; Ahzab: 1 to 3, 9
to 27, Bara-at: 25 to 27) and also found in all the authentic books of his-
tory written by the well-known Muslim as well as non-muslim scholars.
There are several signs of Allah in these battles manifested through the
valour of Ali ibn abi Talib which have no parallel in the history of
mankind.
Allah is the absolute truth, so He Himself is the best witness. In one of
his supplications Imam Ali said:
"O He who proves His (eternal) existence by His signs that exist in
every thing."

"The heavens are almost rent asunder" refers to the displeasure of Al-
lah when man associates false gods with Him.
The angels are the noblest and purest beings, and among them are
those, superior in excellence, who are in the neighbourhood of
the arsh. All the angels not only celebrate the glory of their Lord but also
pray for the protection of human beings.
To save the transgressing human beings from the wrath of Allah, the
angels, who only carry out the will of Allah, under His command, pray
for His protection and mercy so that the erring human beings may not be
totally annihilated by the rendering asunder of the heavens. As stated in
Anam: 12 and 54, Allah has prescribed mercy for Himself. A general am-
nesty has been promised if man turns repentant to Allah and seek His
mercy, see Mumin: 7.

Aqa Mahdi Puya says:
Verses 10 to 21 of this surah assert that absolute authority belongs only
to Allah in the realm of creation as well as in the realm of legislation. His
sovereignty is delegated to the chosen prophets and their successors on
the earth. The people of the book and the disbelievers differ in this ar-
rangement in order to save their privileges and advantages. The Holy
Prophet is commanded not to give any importance to their
opposition. The mission of the Holy Prophet, as decreed by Allah, was
to do justice to friends and foes alike and preach the truth so that his op-
ponents, who are also the opponents of Allah, may have no excuse what-
soever, and they may rely on Allah for their sustenance and pay atten-
tion to the life of hereafter.
Refer to Nisa: 65 and Ahzab: 36.

The religion preached by the Holy Prophet was the same in essence,
given to Nuh, Ibrahim, Musa or Isa. They all preached the
unity (tawhid) of Allah and admonished their followers to do good and
shun evil. Every religion was named by its followers after their prophet's
departure from this world, but Islam was named by Allah-see Baqarah:
112; Ali Imran: 19; Nisa: 125 and Ma-idah: 3-when the religion of Allah
was perfected and completed. It implies that all other religions, prior to
Islam, were in the state of transition.
John 16: 5 to 14 clearly show that Isa, before leaving this world, gave
the news of the advent of the spirit of truth, the comforter, who would
certainly come and guide all mankind into all the truth, for he would not
speak on his own authority, but tell only what he heard from the Lord.

of Allah brought almost similar guidance in basic principles, so when the
Holy Prophet came with Islam, there should have been no opposition by
the people of the book, but through selfish envy they plunged in antag-
onism and rejected the truth.

The mission of the Holy Prophet was to preach the gospel of unity to
unite the people who were sunk deep in sectarianism and division,
without making any compromise on account of worldly or political
motives. He always relied upon Allah and His revelation, judged justly
between warring factions, as the greatest upholder of peace and unity.
According to Islam it is deeds which decide the fate of every individual
in the life hereafter. Personal responsibility for one's own conduct is the
basis of judgement on the day of reckoning when all will be brought to-
gether before the Lord of the worlds who is God of every created being.

Prophet (see commentary of Baqarah: 40, 89 and 253), but when he came
they disbelieved in him because of their arrogance, selfish motives and
desire to maintain status quo in order to save their privileges, advantages
and leadership.

world, something may be available to them here but in the blessings of
the spiritual world to come they shall have no share because whatever
good they did was a show-off.

Nothing can be legislated without the permission of Allah. Thus even
those whom the disbelievers regard as partners of Allah cannot do so.
Allah has given respite to the disbelievers, and does not hasten in inflict-
ing punishment on them. Refer to Yunus: 19 and Rad: 6; and verse 18 of
this surah.

 To follow the command of Allah given in this verse, refer to the com-
mentary of Furqan: 57; Saba: 47 and Sad: 86 for the "love of the Ahl ul
Bayt of the Holy Prophet." Also refer to An-am : 91 and Yunus: 72.
To know that Ali, Fatimah, Hasan and Husayn and their children are
the only "near relative" (Ahl ul Bayt) of the Holy Prophet see comment-
ary of Ali Imran: 61 and Ahzab: 33.
Ibn Hajr in Sawa-iq, chapter 11, page 160 and Ibn Sad in Tabaqat in the
account of Umar bin Khattab have accepted that the near relatives of the
Holy Prophet are the Ahl ul Bayt. The same opinion is found in Tafsir
Kashaf, Sahih Muslim, Musnad ibn Hanbal and Tafsir Durr al Manthur.
This verse commands the Muslims to love the Ahl ul Bayt if they want
to repay the Holy Prophet for his toils of prophethood, so that they
should follow the Ahl ul Bayt in word and deed, because they have been
thoroughly purified by Allah Himself, because they are the truthful, be-
cause they are the custodians of the word of Allah, because they alone
know the true interpretation of the guidance sent for all mankind.
A large number of narratives reported by the most reliable authorities
of the Islamic history prove that this verse was revealed in Madina after
the births of Imam Hasan and Imam Husayn. Even if they were not born
and this verse was revealed in Makka, no Muslim can deny that Allah
has the absolute authority to refer to future events and persons not yet
born, as He refers to the details of the day of judgement or relates the
outcome of the battles the Holy Prophet fought in defence.
Those who try to sidetrack the command of Allah to love the near rel-
atives of the Holy Prophet on flimsy ground must remember that even
the least ill-will against the thoroughly purified Ahl ul Bayt has been for-
bidden. From the beginning to the end of their lives, every member of
the Ahl ul Bayt had presented an ideal Islamic pattern of life, not
equalled by any among the followers of the Holy Prophet, therefore love
and devotion to them was ordained to provide highest form of guidance
to mankind. See commentary of Saba: 47. Unless one loves and follows
the Ahl ul Bayt one cannot sincerely avail of the guidance offered by the
Holy Prophet. Love implies sincere attachment which must manifest in
every thought and deed.
Imam Jafar bin Muhammad as Sadiq said:
"He who obeys Allah's commands is our devotee; and he who dis-
obeys His commands is our enemy."
After the departure of the Holy Prophet from this world, his followers:
(i) deprived her daughter, Bibi Fatimah, of her rights. See commentary
of Bani Israil: 26; Naml: 15 and 16; Nahl: 90 and Maryam: 2 to 15;

17
 (ii) her house was set on fire; a door fell upon her, killing her unborn
child, Muhsin, in the womb, due to which, at last, she died,
(iii) Ali was dragged in the streets of Madina, bound with ropes;
(iv) Hasan was poisoned;
(v) Husayn, along with his relatives and friends, was killed in Karbala;
(vi) the remaining Imams of the Ahl ul Bayt were killed, one by one;
(vii) and their devotees, who loved and followed them as commanded
by Allah, were persecuted and killed.
It is reported that the people of Madina, known as ansar, who gave
asylum to the people of Makka, known as muhajirin, began to take pride
in the role they played in the promotion of the mission of the Holy
Prophet. Ibn Abbas and some other immigrants felt unhappy and com-
plained to the Holy Prophet. The Holy Prophet, then, reminded
the ansar that it was because of him they were saved from the accursed
dirt of polytheism, and it was he who showed them the right path of sal-
vation. The ansar realised their folly, avowed to put whatever they had at
his disposal and follow every command given to them. Then this verse
was revealed.
Aqa Mahdi Puya says:
Qurba means nearness. Fil qurba means for the sake of nearness.
The unanimous traditions of utmost authenticity assert that nearness
to the Holy Prophet means love of his those relatives who are nearest to
him in excellence and accomplishment. So, when he was asked to point
out his relatives, he pronounced the names of Ali, Fatimah, Hasan and
Husayn and their children. There is not a single tradition of the Holy
Prophet that qurba refers to the relatives of the Quraysh, or the relation-
ship of the Holy Prophet with the Quraysh or the relatives of the believ-
ers, as concocted by the anti Ahl ul Bayt commentators. The structure of
the verse proves that the Holy Prophet has been commanded to demand
recompense, as an exception, not from every one, but from those believ-
ers mentioned in Furqan: 57-those who take the way to their Lord. The
recompense is in the interest of the believers themselves, not in any way
profitable to the Holy Prophet in his personal life.
Instead of arham (the blood relatives), qurba (neamess) has been used to
show that not only relationship but also nearness in character and ac-
complishment is taken into consideration as the important quality. So, on
the basis of this verse, love of the Ahl ul Bayt has become an obligatory
function of the faith, a fundamental condition without which no amount
of devotion to Allah and good deeds will be of any use.

Whatever the sin, Allah's mercy is available to sincere repentance, at
all times until the decree of condemnation is passed. He does not want to
punish the offenders if they turn repentant to Him and live in the light of
His guidance thereafter. In verse 53 of Zamur the Holy Prophet says: "Do
not despair of the mercy of Allah. Verily Allah forgives all sins."
Compared to what Islam offers to the sinners (repentance and their
living an ordered life free from evil) the doctrine of unconditional re-
demption, just because a man, unjustly taken as the son of God, has giv-
en his blood, is incredible, because it gives unruly licence to sin which
certainly spreads corruption, chaos and injustice.
Jabir bin Abdullah Ansari relates an incident in which it is said that a
man came into the masjid, prayed a two rak-at salat, and then said: "O
Lord, I seek Your pardon." Imam Ali, who was there, said: "Your repent-
ance is unacceptable. Tawbah (turning repentant unto ADah) should
come together with a sincere determination to avoid sinning in the fu-
ture." If any duty has been neglected it should be at once carried out. He
who turns in repentance to Allah must feel sorry for the enjoyment of the
sinful deed and humiliate himself before Allah for revolting against His
command.

Aqa Mahdi Puya says:
Consultation is to be made in the matters of personal relationship, not
in the affairs of the society, that too when clear command of Allah or ver-
dict of the Holy Prophet is not available. To administer and guide the
collective as well as the individual life, all the commands of Allah and

21
the Holy Prophet have to be followed in letter and spirit. Legislation and
administration are not left to the mutual consultation of the people. Refer
to the commentary of Ali Imran: 159 and Nisa: 59. The ulil amr may con-
sult people to win their good will, otherwise he has to follow the laws
made by Allah to make his final decision.
After the departure of the Holy Prophet, while his true duly appointed
successor, Ali ibn abi Talib (see commentary of Ma-idah: 67) was busy
with the arrangements for his burial, the muhajirin of Makka and
the ansar of Madina assembled at Saqifa Bani Sa-da to prove their re-
spective merits. The muhajirin claimed preference in view of their prior-
ity in Islam and their kinship with the Holy Prophet. The ansar referred
to their help and support to establish his mission. No one mentioned the
historic fact that a few month ago the Holy Prophet had irrevocably
nominated Ali as his divinely elected successor. Refer to "The Early His-
tory of Islam" by Sayyid Safdar Husayn, published by our Trust, for full
details of the drama enacted at Saqifa Bani Sa-da. It is said that Abu Bakr
was elected as the caliph by consultation and consensus among the
companions.
Therefore many commentators interpret this verse to justify the farce
staged to belie and reject the clear command of Allah conveyed by the
Holy Prophet at Ghadir Khum.

There are believers who overlook the excesses committed to harm
them and forgive the offenders, but some among them take revenge by
following the principles of "eye for an eye". Refer to the commentary of
Hajj : 60; Muminun: 96; Ha Mim: 34.
As verse 40 prescribes the reprisal should be equal to the offence, but
an extraordinary reward shall be given to those who decide to forgive.
Refer to the commentary of Baqarah: 190 to 193, 216 and 256 to know
that Islam was not preached by the sword, and all the battles imposed
upon the Holy Prophet were fought by him in defence because as verse
42 says Allah does not love the unjust transgressor for whom there is a
painful punishment .

was not a man of the world, amassing worldly possessions, they thought
that he should not have been richly endowed with wisdom and author-

Makka or Taif. Intellectual and spiritual excellence had no value at all for
them
Aqa Mahdi Puya says:

and worldly position. In their ignorance, they are unable to ascertain and

All false glitter and adornments of this world are illusions. They more
often hinder than help. Possession of worldly gains is not a proof of an
unjust or a just life.

Allah distributes worldly possessions in order to test and distinguish

He who goes blind to the remembrance of Allah, as a natural con-

The downward fall of the life of evil is rapid. The evil persuades its
victims to believe that they are pursuing good. They go deeper and

At the time of judgement the deceived souls of the followers of
Shaytan will cry in agony: "Would that we had never come across the ac-
cursed Shaytan. Would that we were separated poles apart." The dis-
tance of two easts implies "east and west" which can never meet. The
equivalent idiom in English is "poles apart."

Ibn Marduwayh reports from Jabir bin Abdullah Ansari that the Holy
Prophet said that this verse referred to Imam Ali who would, after the
Holy Prophet, fight and punish the hypocrites because they would break
the covenant made with Allah and the Holy Prophet. This is also men-
tioned in Tafsir Durr al Manthur and Tafsir Nayshapuri.

Jabir bin Abdullah Ansari reports that after returning from hajjatul
wida (the last pilgrimage) the Holy Prophet used to admonish and warn
the people to remember and adhere to the command of Allah he con-
veyed to them at Ghadir Khum (see commentary of Ma-idah: 67 and 3).
This tradition is also mentioned in Manaqib ibn Maghazali and Fiqh al
Shafi-i.
The last portion of verse 43 indicates that to acknowledge Ali as the
successor of the Holy Prophet is the only right course.
According to Minhajul Sadiqin Imam Muhammad bin Ali al Baqir and
Imam Jafar bin Muhammad as Sadiq said:

"Dhikr is the Quran and we are those about whom the people will be
questioned, regarding their duties and obligations unto us."
Verse 24 of Saffat also refers to "questioning".
Ibn Hajar, in his Sawa-iq al Muhriqah Chapter II, has enumerated this
verse among the verses that refer to the Ahl ul Bayt and has commented
upon it at great length and recorded several traditions in support of his
comments. Besides, Al Dayami relates from Abu Sa-id Khudri that the
Holy Prophet said that in this verse the expression "they must be ques-
tioned" means that they shall be questioned concerning the love of Ali,

31
and Wahidi interprets this verse to mean that they shall be questioned
concerning the love of Ali and the Ahl ul Bayt, since Allah commanded
His messenger to declare to the people that he did not ask any reward
for his preaching except the love of his Ahl ul Bayt.
According to Thalabi the Holy Prophet said:
"At the time of mi-raj when I was among the prophets and the angels, I
asked the prophets as to what purpose they were sent into the world.
They all replied in one voice: 'For your love and the love of Ali ibn abi
Talib'."

Verse 56 says that the fate of the people of Firawn is an instructive
warning and example to future generations. Like the people of Firawn
the Makkan pagans also gave great importance to temporal power and
worldly possessions and ignored the life of the hereafter.

Isa was a man and a prophet. Some of the churches, founded after
him, worshipped him as God and as the son of God. The pagans of
Makka who worshipped their own false gods did not like the idea of re-
ferring to Isa who was introduced to them by the Christians as God, an
alien God to them. So they ridiculed him; but they did not know that Isa
was neither God nor the son of God, he was one of the great prophets,
and had a limited mission to reform the children of Israil.
Refer to the commentary of Baqarah: 140; Ali Imran: 45 to 59, 114 to
118; Nisa: 157 to 159, 171; Ma-idah: 5; 20, 44, 45, 67, 85, 113, 114, 117, 119,
121; Bara-at :30, 31;Maryam: 16 to 37 for prophet Isa.
The Holy Prophet said:
"0 Ali, you are like Isa. Many have gone astray in his love or in his
hostility."
The hypocrites among those present there said: "Is there no better ex-
ample than this?". Thereupon these verses were revealed. Ahmed bin
Hambal in his Musnad and Ibn Hajar in his Sawa-iq al Muhriqah have
confirmed this tradition.
Aqa Mahdi Puya says:
"He" in verse 61 refers to Isa. According to Sahih Muslim the Holy
Prophet said:
"When Isa will descend from the heaven among you, the leader (of
mankind) will be a man from among you."

Refer to the commentary of Bara-at: 32, 33 for the reappearance of

Imam Muhammad bin Hasan al Qa-im along with whom Isa will also
come.

The Holy Prophet, who has no equal in the degree of submission to Al-
lah, would have worshipped the son of God if He had one, but glory be
to Allah, He neither begets nor was He begotten. He is free from the
things people attribute to Him. According to verse 4 of Zumar, had Allah
pleased to take a son, He would have chosen him (the Holy Prophet)
whom He liked the most among His creation in the sense of nearest near-
ness to Him as per Najm: 9 (two bows, or nearer still).
Isa said:
"I am now ascending to my father and your father, my God and your
God."(John 20: 17).
Aqa Mahdi Puya says:
The Holy Prophet said:
"My light was the first creation of Allah."
"I and Ali are from one and the same light."
The Ahl ul Bayt have said that as their light was the first creation of
Allah, they were the first to worship Allah, before the angels.
To save his followers from the unpardonable sin of polythe-
ism (shirk) the Holy Prophet asked them to always address him as the
servant of Allah which is mentioned in every salat. Islam left no room for
any kind of shirk to pollute the pure worship of Allah.

Baqarah: 185 says that the Quran was sent down in the month of Ra-
madan, Qadr: 1 says that it was sent down on the night of Qadr and this
verse says that it was sent down on a blessed night. Therefore, the Quran
was sent down in the month of Ramadan on the blessed night of Qadr
(power), one of the odd nights in the last ten days of the month of
Ramadan.
Aqa Mahdi Puya says:
The abovenoted verses clearly prove that the whole Quran was re-
vealed to the Holy Prophet on the night of Qadr, and the gradual revela-
tion refers to the occasions on which he was commanded by Allah to re-
cite them to the people. Refer to the commentary of Baqarah: 2 and Ta
Ha: 114. Therefore if any theory, based upon conjecture, is put forward
to state that the Holy Prophet was not aware of the full text of the Quran
and knew it only as and when any portion was revealed to him, should
be rejected.

 [Pooya/Ali Commentary 44:4]
On the night of Qadr the divine wisdom determines the solution of all
spiritual pursuits man decides to undertake, therefore the Holy Prophet
has advised the believers to pray and seek Allah's mercy throughout this
night.
Refer to the commentary of rabbul alamin in verse 2 of al Fatihah to un-
derstand taqdir and hidayat. The word qadr therefore has been translated
as power and not as determination.
Abd al Husayn Sharaf al Din al Musawi in al Muraji-at says:
The majority of the Muslims agree with the Ash-aris, the followers of
Abu al Husayn al Ashari, in their fundamentals of faith. The beliefs of
the Ash-aris are briefly as follow:
(i) The Quran is uncreated.
(ii) Man is not free to choose and act because all his actions are
predestined.
(iii) Allah's attributes are distinct from His essence.
The Shi-ahs reject all the abovenoted beliefs. By means of the second
belief, the Ash-aris seek to justify all the evil deeds of such tyrants as
Yazid and others whom they regard as khalifatul rasul; hence they insist
on predestination which creates the possibility of Allah being unjust.
Imam Ali said:
"People wrongly imagine that destiny is abiding and fate is certain. If
it were so the idea of reward and penalty becomes meaningless, promise
and threat a hoax. Allah, the most praised, has given man freedom of
thought and action."
The freedom of action is conditioned by the laws made by Allah to
govern the universe. No one can break them.
Imam Ali clears this as under:
He said: "While standing, if you want to lift one of your legs you can,
and you are free to lift the second leg also, but as soon as your second leg
leaves the ground you will fall down, because you have broken the law
Allah has so precisely put in operation."
Allah has power over all things but He is also just. We believe in His
justice. So we must understand the consequences of believing in predes-
tination and the theories of determinism propagated by the anti-Ahl ul
Bayt scholars and theoreticians while interpreting these kind of verses.

There was a severe famine in Makka, in which men were so weakened
by hunger that they saw mist before their eyes when they looked at the
sky. It is reported that it was as severe a drought as the seven years dry
spell of the times of Yusuf. At last they came to the Holy Prophet and be-
seeched him to pray to Allah for immediate relief. He prayed and the re-
lief came.
The Holy Prophet said:

"Dukhan refers to the smoke which will be seen on the day of

judgement."
This is a warning to those who reject the true faith. They will see
smoke every where on the day of reckoning. It will envelop them as a
grievous penalty.
Aqa Mahdi Puya says:
The penalty referred here will be inflicted upon the disbelievers before
the actual reckoning. As this affliction will afflict the whole humanity,
only that prophet who was sent to all mankind as a warner and a bearer
of glad tidings and a mercy unto the worlds will alone be able to pray to
Allah to remove it.
The Quraysh had before them a messenger whose purity of life was
known to them. They themselves called him al-amin (the trustworthy)
and al sadiq (the truthful), yet they turned away from him and called him
mad when he invited them to the worship of one God (Allah). Refer to
Hijr: 6; Nahl: 103; Araf: 184.

40
 Though Allah gives respite to the disbelievers to see if that will bring
them to the right path, but at last the final judgement will seize the irre-
claimable from which there will be no escape.

Tubba was an appellation of each of the kings of Yemen, known as
Himayarite kings. A one time the Himayarite kingdom extended over:
all Arabia and beyond. First they were Sabians then professed the Jewish

42
and the Christian religion. Among the embassies sent by the Holy Proph-
et in 9-10 Hijra was one to the Himyar of Yemen, which led to their com-
ing into Islam.
It is mentioned in Minhaj ul Sadiqin that about 1000 years before the
advent of the Holy Prophet, Asad bin Malka abu Ayub, the then Him-
yarite king, after conquering many lands invaded Madina to take re-
venge of his slain son. He was a noble and God-fearing man. He used to
begin all his letters with "in the name of Allah, the Lord of the land, the
seas, the sun and the wind." To prevent him from destroying the city of
Madina two men from the tribe of Bani Qurayza went to him and said:
"Do not destroy this city because the last prophet of Allah, one day, will
come here to preach the divine religion." He not only spared the town
but also wrote a letter of felicitation and welcome to the Holy Prophet
and handed it over to a Jew named Shamul with instructions to deliver it
to him if he comes in his times, or let it be given to him by whosoever be
his heir in the times of the Holy Prophet. Abu Ayub Ansari, the 21st off-
spring in the progeny of Shamul, gave this letter to the Holy Prophet
who said: "Thank you O righteous Tubba."

Aqa Mahdi Puya says:
The Quran is easy to recite even if the reciter does not know the mean-
ing of what he is reciting because its rhythm not only makes misreading
improbable but carries off the soul to a higher spiritual plane. To get to

44
its deepest meaning reference to the wisdom of the Ahl ul Bayt is
essential.

Refer to the commentary of Baqarah: 164.
Imam Ali said:
"Allah brought about the creation, conditions and circumstances the
operation of all that has been created under precise (self) regulating
laws, in the sphere of time and space, made their unlike, complex and di-
verse dispositions agree and fit well together, implanted and infused
rhythm and balance and co-ordination in their nature, to give them the
inbuilt discipline that follows a pattern (system)."
The unity of the creator Lord is manifested in the harmony and order
found in the functioning of the nature all over the universe. The book of
creation presents unity in diversity, and proves the infinite wisdom, om-
nipotence and justice of the creator Lord of the worlds.
Though He has power over all things, He does not make arbitrary
changes in the laws made by Him to regulate the discipline of the work-
ing of the universe, because He is just. By discovering the laws operating
the universe, man today is conditioning his activities to achieve success.
To a great extent he is moving in the right direction because he follows
and obeys the laws made by Allah. It is a clear guidance to him that
when strict adherence to the physical laws brings him success, he should
also follow and obey the laws made by Him to regulate and discipline

46
his social behaviour so that a fair, just and harmonious order may be in-
stituted to establish an ideal human society which is the real purpose of
Islam so far as the life of this world is concerned. He who does this will
be His real representative. As said in the commentary of Bara-at: 32 and
33 it will be achieved by the inheritor of the Holy Prophet, Imam
Muhammad bin Hasan al Qa-im.
Verses 6 to 10 refer to the dealers in falsehood whose ignorance of the
laws explained above makes them certain losers, and eventually they are
punished and destroyed. By not knowing and following or obeying the
laws governing the universe and rejecting or belying the laws of Islam
conveyed to them as the true guidance for regulating their individual as
well as collective life in this world they are surely heading unto disaster
not only here but in the life of hereafter also because as explained above
those who do not know the plan and purpose of creation or wilfully re-
fuse to follow the truth even after knowing it, fact, disbelieve in the cre-
ator Lord of the worlds.
Aqa Mahdi Puya says:
Hadith means discourse, statement, announcement or exposition. It in-
dicates that the Quran is not uncreated.

The oceans encircling the earth are one of the most significant factors
of geography. Its salt water is an agent of global sanitation. From the
ocean we get means of sustenance of various kinds and other manifold
benefits. The ships of all size sail on its waves for commerce and unify-
ing people living on far off lands. They promote human intercourse, and
help us to seek the bounties of Allah not only in a commercial but in an
intellectual and spiritual sense. All this is by "Allah's command"-by His
beneficent ordering and arrangement of the universe, as described in the
commentary of verses 3 to 11; and for all His mercy and beneficence we
should thank Him.

The sea, in the preceding verse, is only only example of Allah's cher-
ishing care in making all things in nature available for the use of man.
He has subjected to him all that is in the universe. Man through his geni-
us and faculties given to him by Allah can conquer the worlds if only he
follows His laws and obeys His commands.

Refer to the commentary of Baqarah: 47, 89 to 91; Ma-idah: 48; Yunus:
93; Hud: 110; Ta Ha: 9 to 98 and other references mentioned therein.
The Quran is a guidance and a mercy from the lord to the sincere be-
lievers, but as Ali Imran: 138 says it is only a narration to the ordinary
people. In view of Baqarah: 2, 177; Ahzab: 33, read with Waqi-ah: 77 to
99 and hadith al thaqalayn, guidance can only be had from the men of as-
sured faith, the Ahl ul Bayt, because ignorant men are of no use or ser-
vice to the cause of Allah. They have no power at all to guide people.
Only the man of assured faith is a guide and a mercy. Refer to the com-
mentary of Hud: 17.
The Holy Prophet said
"My Ahl ul Bayt are like the ark of Nuh. Whosoever sails on it is safe,
and whosoever holds back is drowned and lost for ever."

The evildoers are not like the righteous; neither in life nor in death are
they equal. In life the righteous are guided by Allah and receive His
grace, and after death His mercy. The evildoers reject His guidance in
life, and after death they are condemned for ever. The life of the right-
eous who have received divine grace and guidance is real, not like the

49
normal life of the wicked which, devoid of divine guidance and grace, is
really death. The physical death of the righteous which brings them to,
eternal life of bliss and salvation is not like the physical death of the
wicked which brings them to eternal misery.
