For related thread please see http://www.paklinks.com/gs/religion-and-scripture/554475-random-crowds-and-organised-societies-by-the-quran.html
Just as Surah 1 is all about introduction, declaration of Allah and agreement between Allah and mankind and Surah 2 is mainly about conflicts between people and their resolutions and little bit about people coming together and organising themselves into a human society, the idea continues in surah 3. In it it is made clear random gatherings are no good and individuals do not progress and prosper and conflicts cannot be resolved therefore people must come together in an organised way so that a community forms which takes care of all its needs. The very same idea is still continuing at a next level ie Surah 4 is now getting into organisational structures. Here Allah is not telling mankind just about organisation but its detailed structures as well so that masses could be managed properly through institutions and administrations so that over all society could run smoothly.
It is not difficult to notice that the quran is not interested in life of individual at all but in life of individuals as members of a properly organised human society. The reason is that individual on his own is nothing so telling him anything is useless because one cannot do it on his own. So the role of individuals is only to understand life and then put all effort and work very hard in bringing sense to others so that people come together through learning sense and then form a society that helps them fulfil their needs as individuals by creating an appropriate culture that suits brotherhood for peace and cooperation for progress and prosperity of the society as a whole.
No other book has such a great amount of knowledge in such a short text nor in such an organised way 1500 years back. If we sit to write a simple letter we make so many mistakes and throw away paper after paper till we master letter writing yet the quran containing such information is produced by a desert dwelling man without pen and paper makes one wonder, how was this all possible? The quran is therefore unchallengeable truth as far as those people who are educated and thoughtful enough to realise facts like these.
The individual is given education and shown how to bring about education based revolution in masses when there is no such society in existence. A random gathering of people as individuals for their own individual self interests is not called a human society but a jungle full of wild animals tearing each other apart in order to survive. Humans are only humans if they educate themselves and live like humans and that is the difference between how animals live and how humans are supposed to live. So anyone is just an animal living like animals till one rises above animals by learning things that make a human and then one does all one can to help others become humans and so bring about a good society. So it is very important that people rise up to educate themselves and others and stop all things that are harmful and destructive for mankind and promote things that help humanity to be better and better so that this world becomes a paradise on the earth. The quran promises a great reward for those who would do this in hereafter as well.
Surah 4 AL NISA-The Communities and Administrations
In the name of Allah the beneficent, the merciful.
- O mankind! Be consistent with constitution of your Lord who evolved you from one kind of life form and evolved from it its life support system and spread by means of both these mechanisms life forms in an organised manner the managers and the managed. So be consistent with constitution of Allah so that thereby you have your legal rights against each other secured and fulfil your obligations towards each other concerning your ties of social relationships, surely in implementing the constitution of Allah is protection for you the mankind as a family.
Note; In this verse we are told that Allah created a unit of life form eg a living cell. He then tells us that from it he created other life forms as means of life support system. This means that one life form depends upon other life forms for its existence in various ways. This is description of evolution of life. Ultimately life forms give rise to or bring about human beings who then evolve in to a kind of beings that need divine help to ability of thinking and planning hence the need for them to look for external information for guidance to get around the maze of life and hence the need for God to provide them with his guidance.
-
So assign and deliver according to that to the individuals their rightful due assignment of goods and services and substitute not the harmful and destructive rule for the beneficial rule of Allah nor take part in handling what belongs to community in a way to take it into your private possessions. Surely doing so is inflicting a great harm and destruction upon society.
-
So if you have come to realise that as things are you cannot deliver goods and services for the individuals justly and fairly then you should organize and contract people for the administrations of the community that you think are appropriate in your view for the set out task, two and three and four to help you do what you are obliged to do. Therefore if you think that as things are you will not be able to deliver justice and fairness in form of goods and services for the individuals then be a united organise community under your own administration and within your own jurisdiction. That will be good to prevent you from going against the limits set by constitution of Allah.
-
That is how you should ensure that the rightfully due livelihood is reaching the communities properly but if any of them haply give any of it back to you the community administrations for the communities then you the administrations may accept it of them and use it as you think will benefit the communities.
-
Moreover place not community administrative responsibilities on ignorant, untrained or mentally unsound people in the communities for handling your community wealth which Allah has made a means of your support so provide the communities from it their livelihood thus cover their needs and discuss and explain community and administration related things to them nicely.
-
As for the individuals under your training for taking on administrative responsibilities, keep putting them through examinations for testing their abilities until they reach the required standard then if you find them capable of sound judgement hand over to them their community possessions for which they are supposed to be responsible advising them, do not let this community wealth be used in contravention of set limits of divine constitution nor let the expenditure of community exceed its growth. If the legal guardian of community wealth is self sufficient by his own rightful share of the community wealth then he should not take any compensation for his services but if he has not yet received his share from community wealth for some reason then let him take a just and reasonable remuneration for his services. Also when you hand over people their shares from the community wealth, keep some records for evidences regarding them, for Allah advises efficiency and keeping proper accounts for preventing problems.
-
For the new administrators of the administration of the community it is necessary that they improve upon what they inherit from their ancestral/guardian and their related administrations and communities and likewise it is necessary that the communities also improve upon what they inherit from their ancestral administrations and their related communities regardless whatever they inherit is valued greatly as a necessity or valued little as additional. They must keep it in good shape as a matter of their duty.
-
And when concerned locally settled individuals are present at the time for distribution of shares of the community wealth, give out of community wealth to them and discuss matters of mutual concern with them appropriately.
-
Let those administrators who distribute community wealth to the members of the community show similar concerns in their minds as if it were their own wealth and these were members of their own families for whose success they were greatly concerned, thus they should be consistent with the constitution of Allah and express their good will for others.
-
Beware that those who unduly withhold or try and take away the constitutionally assigned rights and possessions of individuals, they take part in igniting the fire of hatred in their communities and they are soon consumed by their self created fire of hatred by way of bloodshed and destruction.
-
Therefore Allah advises you the followers of the Quran concerning your masses that have come together to form a larger community to organise them into manageable groups. As for the mass of people, it should be organised under a single main administration with subordinate layer of similar administrations. In case there are more people than can be managed by two layers of administrations then divide them under three layers of administrations. However even if you decide to have only one administration, it should still be sufficient to serve community properly. As for the main administrations, for each of them there can be several subordinate administrations to share the task provided there are people to serve. However if there are no people to serve then responsibility remains with main administration but if there are two subordinate administrations then share of responsibilities of mother administration is a third. But if there are more supporting fellow administrations such as five administrations under the mother administration then responsibility of their mother administration would be one sixth after all administrations are agreed upon and installed and work as they are advised according to the constitutional obligations. With regards to your main or subordinate administrators, you do not really know which of them will be of more benefit to you therefore Allah issued this ordinance so that you monitor and hold each person and institution of the administration accountable accordingly. Surely Allah is makes things obvious to make mankind wise.
-
Moreover for you the administrations at horizontal level responsibility is to be shared equally if there are no subordinate administrations. However if you have three subordinate administrations then your responsibility is one fourth after the agreement about it has been reached between you according to the constitutional obligations. Your fellow administrations will likewise have one fourth of the responsibilities if you have no successors but they do. However if you too have three subordinate administrations then they are to get one eighth of responsibility just like you after the agreement is in place about it according to the constitutional obligations. If an administrator or an administration has no mother or daughter administrator or administration but has five supporting administrators or supporting administrations, they each have one sixth of the responsibilities. However if they are more than that then they all have equal share of responsibilities agreed upon according to the constitutional obligations without harming rights and responsibilities of the others. This is an advice from Allah that Allah made known for people to adopt.
-
These are the administrative measures advised by Allah so that any people who are consistent with constitution of Allah along with His messenger enter blissful kingdoms with rivers flowing of things for livelihood to live therein forever if they maintain the standard and that is something of great benefit to achieve.
-
However any people who oppose the constitution of Allah and His messenger by transgressing His set out measures will end up in agony and will remain therein forever if they do not repent and reform and that is how they will go through a humiliating suffering.
-
This is why if any of your administrations are accused for breaking the set limits when serving your communities then look for at least four independent instances with four independent people as evidence from among yourselves against them and if you find such evidence then monitor them closely at their institutions till you the community are satisfied they are fulfilling their duties properly or Allah avails them some other way to correct themselves or leave the institutions.
-
And if either of the two groups from among you the communities and the administrations need corrective measures taken against them due to breaking of the set limits then correct them both likewise but if they correct and reform then leave them to carry on as normal. Surely Allah attends to what people need through His blissful revelation.
-
Turning to revelation of Allah is proper of those parties indeed who do things against His set limits while unaware about the set limits of Allah and turn to it as soon as they are made aware of it, therefore these are the ones to whom Allah attends through His blissful revelation, that is how Allah makes obvious to mankind He is wise.
-
Turning to revelation of Allah is not proper of such parties as persist against His set limits despite knowing them until harm and destruction is staring any of them in the face and then it says I now turn to Him for guidance nor is turning to guidance of Allah proper of those parties who are defeated while they were still opposing the installation of constitution of Allah, for such We have already put in place cause and effect based painful suffering.
-
O you who claim to be committed to working for peace and prosperity of mankind! It is not lawful for you to take over the community administrations within your jurisdiction against their will so that you may forcefully replace them or make them give up a part of the provision you have provided them as revenue for community benefit unless they are clearly proven guilty of harming community by breaking any set limits in the constitution of Allah. Treat them with kindness even if you disagree with them about things because it may be that you disagree with them about something in which Allah has placed some benefit for you.
-
If you decide to replace one administration of a community with another then do not take back anything of what you have given the community be it a heap of gold. Would you take it back through false accusations against it and by going clearly against the guidelines of Allah?
-
And how could you take it back when each of you have benefited from the other indeed and they have taken from you a firm pledge according to the constitutional obligations?
Note: in verses 22-25, the Quran is not talking about men and women and their marriage but about communities and their administrations and how they need to be careful when they enter agreements with each other for mutual benefits and to end any harm and destruction against each other. The Quran is using general words that are used for human relationships but the purpose is very clear when looked at in context of the Quran and in context of this very Surah. These contracts or agreements can be between families, clans and tribes or between communities, administrations and interested or involved parties.
The point made here is not to treat agreements as mechanisms for deceiving each other as people used to do in times gone by and they still do it even today. It is like two people agree to do something and then a third person comes and makes one of the parties break the contract by offering a better deal. Agreements are to be respected but it is told very clearly that agreements must not be based upon intention of inflicting harm on each other but with intention of benefiting each other. You cannot bring about a good community by undercutting and cheating each other because that way you only advance distrust and hatred and that eventually leads to break up and wars not unity. If masses are corrupt amongst themselves it is not good for the community and if community administration is corrupt again the whole community is in trouble. Likewise if community is bad to its administration and administration is bad to community it is supposed to serve then things will not turn out good. Individual therefore need to be good to community and community in return needs to be good to individuals and likewise all related administrations and communities need to be good to each other if things are to move in the proper direction.
-
Moreover as communities and administrations do not enter into agreements with communities and administrations that already have agreements in place in order to undercut and unduly exploit each other instead let bygone ways of doing things be bygone. Surely it was a harmful and destructive custom for parties to undercut and unduly exploit each other.
-
It is therefore unlawful for you as communities and administrations to enter into agreements with other communities and administrations where agreements are already in place in order to undercut and unduly exploit each other such as your mother communities and administrations, your daughter communities and administrations, your sister communities and administrations, your paternal parental sister communities and administrations, your maternal parental sister communities and administrations, your brother communities and administrations’ daughter communities and administrations, your sister communities and administrations’ daughter communities and administrations, your foster mother communities and administrations, your foster sister communities and administrations, your partner communities and administrations’ mother communities and administrations, your step daughter communities and administrations provided you entered in contract with their mother communities and administrations already but if you have not entered in to contract with them already then there is no harm in it for you. Moreover it is lawful for you to enter in contract with your own community administrators who are backbone of your community that is how you should bring any two communities under the same main administration instead of continuing what went on before. Surely Allah is protector of people through blissful revelation.
-
Further more enter not in agreements with communities and administrations that are ideologically far removed from you until they accept your terms for peace, this is advise of Allah for you. However you are free to enter agreements with anyone other than what is stated provided you intend to ensure their security and protection not desiring to secure undue advantage against them. Give them their mutually agreed revenue for community and administration as an obligation for the service of the community. However there is no blame on you as a people if you change the agreement between administrations and communities with mutual consent for the benefit of all involved. This surely makes obvious that rule of Allah is based on wisdom.
-
For any of you the communities and administration that are unable to find contract free communities and administrations among those committed to working for peace they may enter agreements with those communities and administrations that are under those communities and administrations that are already under agreements for your mutual peace. Allah will make evident in time how committed you really are in working for peace and prosperity for yourselves and others. Remember! You are all from one another so enter agreements with them by consent of their mother communities and administrations and give them due share of their revenue so that they live up to their responsibilities faithfully and not live to serve their own desires and damage communities by their secret dealings within their own circles. Then if after they are drafted in to the agreements they transgress the constitution of Allah and mutual community interest then they can be made to compensate the communities as prescribed for any of the people of the community who are not part of the contract. This penalty is for the reason that people from among you pay attention to their actions and their consequences. So if you handle difficulties sensibly it is better for you because Allah is protector of mankind through blissful revelation.
-
Allah desires to make His guidance manifest through you in practice therefore He guides you to the traditions which were followed by the good people before you that is why He turned to you with mercy because that is how He makes His wisdom evident for mankind.
-
Just as Allah desires that He turns to you with His guidance so those who follow their own harmful ambitions wish to see you deviate far away from the path that is firmly founded.
-
Allah wishes that He makes things easier for you the humans because man has been brought about very weak in knowledge.
-
O you who claim to be committed to working for peace and prosperity of mankind! Do not handle your goods between yourselves on basis of manipulative system to harm each other instead let there be transfer of goods and services amongst you on basis of mutual goodwill to benefit each other, so do not destroy yourselves by doing things the harmful and destructive way. Allah is Merciful to you indeed for letting you know all this.
-
So anyone who acts like that in opposition to Our guidance and practices injustice and unfairness We will let him drag himself in to the ditch of painful suffering because this is easy for Allah to let happen if that is still your choice after things have been made fully clear.
-
However if you as a community avoid doing things that you are not supposed to do because they are greatly harmful and even destructive for you as a community then We will not let small mistakes take you off course but cause you to rise to status of great honour.
-
So never evade or divert the rights and responsibilities with which Allah has bound some of you for others. As for people of the administrations, the results of their actions will be according to what they do and for the people of the communities consequences will be according to what they do. Therefore show responsibility towards each other as well as demand rights of each other in the name of Allah regarding His bounty. This is how Allah makes evident that He is aware of everything.
-
For every community We bring about managers to handle whatever they have of the people and the related affairs and resources. So those with whom you enter agreements deliver to them their due shares of rights and responsibilities. Surely Allah constantly shows how all affairs about everything are taken care of.
-
The managers are responsible for managing the people and the resources in their communities with consent of their communities because Allah has bestowed upon some people rights and responsibilities for caring of others therefore they should keep open for others whatever of the sustenance they have under their administration. Thus righteous people of the community show consistency by guarding their future better as Allah requires them to guard. As to such administrations in the community from whom you fear lack of discipline, keep monitoring and advising them thereby keep them faithfully stuck to their constitutional obligations to the community, this is how you should discipline them appropriately. Thereafter if they become consistent with your requirements then look not for ways to harm them. Remember the constitution of Allah is sole authority for all of you.
-
Moreover if you the community sense any conflict between any groups of people in your administration and any party of your people in your community then appoint one arbiter body from the administrators side and another from the community side then if they go for reconciliation and compromise, Allah will facilitate harmony between them, thus Allah makes manifest that He is all aware.
-
That is how you should carry out instructions of Allah and accept none as sovereign other than Him and be good to your administrations and communities under the constitution as well as to the individuals such as local residents and to the refugees from near about places as well as to the refugees from remote places and to the ideological supporters of yours in remote places as well as the people on journey of knowledge and all those under your care or jurisdiction. Surely Allah supports not the arrogant and the boastful against His rule,
-
who are themselves niggardly hoarders and effectively force others to behave likewise and they hide the abundance of wealth which Allah has bestowed upon them from others who need it. For such opponents of Our guidance We have setup law of consequences for their actions whereby they end up in disgraceful painful suffering.
-
And the case is likewise for those who use what they have to help others only for show to appear good before the people but they commit not to working for peace and prosperity of mankind according to constitution of Allah nor for the good end result for mankind. In fact any who chooses such a destructive person as an administrator for community has chosen a deadly harmful fellow as a community administrator!
-
How could harm come to such people had they committed to working for peace and prosperity of mankind and had chosen right administrators for their communities according to the constitution of Allah and for the good end result for the mankind by opening up to others all that Allah had provided for all of them? Allah is fully aware of them and will expose their lack of concern for others in due course.
-
Surely Allah does no harm to anyone even to the least degree. Not only that but also if anyone does any good to the least degree for others, He increases it many folds giving extra from Himself.
-
Just imagine who will prove right on this claim Us or you when We will bring evidence from every nation before you the people and challenge you the people to bring your evidence against it as to who harmed the nations, Us or was it their own doings and is it Us harming you now or are you harming yourselves?
-
At that time those who fight against Our constitution and oppose Our messenger will wish they were dead and buried in the ground and the ground was levelled over them, for they will not be able to justify any of their harmful deeds against each other in light of law of Allah!
-
So O you who claim to be committed to working for peace and prosperity of mankind, form no laws in connection with the divine constitution the while you are unsure about the process of law formation until you really know what you are trying to achieve, nor should anyone who is a stranger to process of law formation unless one has made oneself fully aware of the process and has undergone thoroughly through the process of study. However, if you are weak in the knowledge of the process or you are on a journey to learning, or any of you have come from a humble background, or are stuck with your communities and you have no access to complete divine revelation then fulfil your objective by doing what benefits the people. Thus you should tackle objectives yourselves and your supporters. Allah is Lenient and generous indeed.
-
Have you not considered the case of those to whom was given the divine book for guidance? They instead followed a way of their own that landed them in to painful suffering and they wish to see you too lose the way that is right.
-
Allah knows those indeed who have animosity towards you but sufficient is Allah as your authority and sufficient is Allah as your supporter.
-
Among the Jews are some who take the words in the scriptures out of their proper contexts and this is how they say we hear by word of mouth and this is how they end up being inconsistent with their words by their actions and so they say we hear but in actual fact they hear not because they explain words against their obvious purpose by misuse of their language and so they turn the divine constitution that leads to peace and prosperity in to a make belief way of life that leads to divisions and wars. Surely it would have been better for them if they had declared we hear by establishing the divine rule of law they were assigned for their consistency and saying, bestow prosperity upon us and keep us established in the land. However Allah condemned them due to their wars against divine constitution, for they commit not to working for peace and prosperity of mankind save a minority of them.
-
O you people who have been given the divine scripture! Commit to working for peace and prosperity of mankind according to what We have revealed now, confirming that which you already have with you before We let the consequences of your actions make you bite the dust and change you in to a nation beyond all recognitions or let you fall into painful suffering like we condemned the people who did not respect the divine constitution before you. Remember, the law of Allah always finds its fulfilment.
-
Surely Allah removes not suffering from any people who take on paths against His constitutional sovereignty but He will remove suffering from those who would act to do so. This is so because any who justifies rule according to constitution of any other than Allah has indeed invented a great lie against Allah so he has to suffer the consequences.
-
Have you not come across such nations who claim to be free of all ills from amongst themselves due to their own constitutions? Nay, they are not, for Allah frees from all ills such as follow His declared will faithfully. Yet no harm will be done to them even in the least measure save what they deserve as a result of their own actions.
-
See how they invent a huge lie against Allah and this in itself is clear enough to make obvious they are off the right track.
-
Have you not come across those people who were given of the divine scriptures to understand it properly and follow it? Instead they sought peace and prosperity in make beliefs rather than the divine constitution and they claimed about those who opposed the constitution of Allah that they have better sense of living in the world than those who have committed to working for peace and prosperity of mankind.
-
These are the ones whom Allah leaves to suffer due to living against His constitution and whomever Allah leaves to suffering agony due to his own choice you will not find him any helper.
-
Have We handed any part of Our kingdom over to such people in writing? Of course not, had that been the case they would not have given other people even the least bit of it.
-
Or is it the case that they envy other people because of what Allah has given them of His guidance and the kingdom? We did give the book and wisdom to the descendants of Abraham and blessed them with a great kingdom.
-
However some of them attained peace and prosperity thereby and some of them moved away from it, therefore sufficient was the fire of hatred they suffered due to inflicting harm on each other.
-
Surely those who reject and oppose Our set goals and guidelines are soon thrown by the consequences of their actions into the fire of hatred to suffer. No sooner they become resistant to a degree of pain that threshold of their resistance is replaced by increase in level of suffering, thus they taste the real torment they bring upon themselves. No doubt Allah is Mighty Wise yet they listen not.
-
As for those who commit to working for peace and prosperity of mankind and act to remove obstacles in the way of peace and prosperity of mankind, We will indeed land them into blissful kingdoms in which provision flows like rivers wherein they will live for as long as they remain true to Our guidance. Therein they will have people who do good for others as their supporters, thus We let such people enter the shelter against harm and destruction.
-
Allah binds you indeed to deliver security from harm to those who have the right to it therefore when you judge between people about their affairs judge fairly. Surely excellent is the advice which Allah gives you hereby. Allah makes evident that He is indeed all hearing and all seeing by result of what people do.
-
O you who claim to be committed to working for peace and prosperity of mankind! Support the constitution of Allah by supporting the messenger and those charged with responsibility to serve you as administrators from among you but should you come across any disagreement between the administration and the community, solve it according to the constitution of Allah just like His messenger if you are truly committed to working for peace and prosperity of mankind according to the constitution of Allah for the good end result for mankind. This course of action will prove beneficial and suitable for you.
-
Have you people not come across those people who claim to be committed to working for peace and prosperity of mankind on basis of constitution that has been revealed to you people and on basis of what was sent before you? Yet they desire that affairs are judged by standards that are opposite to constitution of Allah even though they were commanded indeed to reject them, that is how their harmful and destructive leadership wants to lead them far off the right path into deep error.
-
When it is said to them, come to the constitution which Allah has revealed for the guidance of the messenger, you will see that those who live by double/opposite standards show their utmost hesitation in coming to it.
-
But then see how they behave when they fall into terrible harm as a consequence of their own doings? They come to you swearing by Allah that they desired nothing but to promote mutual goodwill and to bring about a friendly environment.
-
Allah makes evident through their own actions what is really in their minds but ignore their destructive mindset and damaging attitude and instead advise them and say to them words that are effective in convincing their minds to help them change their mindsets and attitudes.
-
We did not send any messenger but that he should be supported by people according to the constitution of Allah. So it is better for them to come to you when they have already suffered the serious consequences of their own actions against each other so far to seek remedy through constitution of Allah for their troubling situations and circumstances and if the messenger also deliberates on their problems, they will find Allah turning to them with solutions of their problems through His constitution indeed.
-
No! By your Lord, they cannot be truly committed to working for peace and prosperity of mankind until they accept your deliberation that is according to Our constitution in all their disputes and then find no resentments in their hearts against your verdicts and accept them with complete satisfaction.
-
However the point is that they are not as committed to working for peace and prosperity of mankind as they claim to be, had We imposed upon them to fight against their own people by saying, fight your own people or to leave your homes, very few of them would have done it without resentment. Yet if they would have installed divine constitution and proper administration as they were commanded, it would have brought them better reward and would have strengthened them as a people to their utmost strength.
-
because We would have rewarded them with a great reward from Ourself.
-
Thus We would have made evident for people to see that We have guided them to the path that is firmly founded.
-
For any people who are consistent with constitution of Allah along with the messenger such are the people who are on the same path as those whom Allah blessed already in the past such as the prophets and those who affirmed them and those who bore witness on their behalf to others, and those who removed obstacles in the path of people for peace and prosperity. What an excellent trail of people to be part of!
-
Such is the benefit of guidance from Allah and sufficient is knowledge of Allah for the good of people.
-
So O you who claim to be committed to working for peace and prosperity of mankind! Prepare yourselves for campaigns to free the oppressed and suffering people in the world then go forth in detachments or all together as need be.
-
Beware, there is amongst you such who will surely lag behind so that if you come to any harm he will say, Allah has been gracious to me that I did not go with them.
-
But if you return blessed with abundance from Allah then he will say out of envy and undue greed and animosity towards you, I wish I had been with them, for I could have attained a great fortune!
-
However only those people strive in the cause of Allah properly who understand it properly and are willing to exchange the life of this world for the life in Hereafter so whoever struggles purely objectively for the cause of installing the constitution of Allah whether he dies struggling or achieves the objective will soon be granted a mighty reward.
-
And what reason do you have not to campaign for installing the constitution of Allah in His land for His people when you must rescue the trapped, helpless and oppressed men, women and children who are crying to Allah for help saying, our Lord! Deliver us from this situation wherein people in authority and their supporters are cruel beyond all bounds of human decency, so bring forth for us a supporter of Your constitution who helps us install Your constitution.
-
Those who are truly committed to working for peace and prosperity of mankind struggle for installation of constitution of Allah and those who reject and oppose the standard set by Allah fight for installing the rule of harmful and destructive forces therefore fight against the supporters of the harmful and destructive ruling elite, surely crafty schemes of the crooked leadership are weak.
-
Have you not considered the case of such who were told to withhold their hands from inflicting harm on each other by way of infighting and to install divine constitution to attain freedom from harmful actions against each other yet they paid no attention till now because they were keen on fighting each other. And look at them now when they are commanded to strive to uninstall destructive rule, a group of them is buried under considerations for favours of powerful and wealthy people as they ought to be overwhelmed by considerations for free gifts of Allah or even more than that and in their hearts they say, our Lord! Why have You imposed upon us this struggle? Could you not exempt us from this struggle till our life time? Tell them, the enjoyment of this life as you are living is limited to a tiny minority for a short time but the life that will result after this is much better for those who are consistent with rule of Allah for the good of humanity, and rest assured that you will not be harmed thereafter even the least.
-
As for the mindset and attitude of accepting failure and defeat, unless you change no matter wherever you are it is going to be with you even if you are placed in fortified towers. When such people are blessed with some benefit they say, this is from Allah but if they suffer a loss they say, this is because of you the prophet and his supporters. Tell them, all is according to laws set by Allah. What is the matter with all these people that they do not even bother to understand even one of Our revelations or points properly?
-
Say, whatever benefit comes to you people because of your own actions it is because of your following of laws of Allah properly and whatever harm you people suffer, it too is the result of your own actions when you do not follow laws of Allah properly. That is why We sent you O Muhammad as a Messenger to mankind to make these things clear to them because laws of Allah are sufficient for evidence to prove your claim of messengership to them.
-
Anyone who supports the messenger in fact supports installation of constitution of Allah. As for those who oppose this mission they should know that We have not sent you to stand guard over them to force them to install this constitution rather they will suffer serious consequences themselves for not doing so.
-
Behold, they say, we are at your service when they are in your presence but when they leave you some of them meet together secretly at night to plot against what you have advised them. Thus Allah lets them expose themselves through their secret plots. However leave them to the consequences of their own actions by trusting the laws of Allah. for laws of Allah are sufficient for disposal of all affairs.
-
Why do they not examine the Quran properly as a divine manifesto and constitution and realise that if it was from someone other than Allah, they would have found in it many conflicting clauses to serve different interests of different involved parties?
-
Despite having a clear constitution and administration based upon it yet when there comes to their attention some matter of community concern or state security they thoughtlessly spread it among public causing panic but instead it would have been better for them if they had referred it to the messenger or the concerned people in community administration amongst them who are able to draw proper conclusions from it. Had it not been for sake of guidance of Allah that He bestowed upon you out of His mercy to make you peaceful and prosperous, save a few all of you would have ended up following the way of the destructive ruling elite that would have landed you in painful suffering for good.
-
Therefore strive hard O prophet to install the constitution of Allah for the good of mankind, you are not duty bound to make effort but as much as is within your capacity and also urge on those who claim to be committed to working for peace and prosperity of mankind to do the same, it is with support of people the revelation Allah will overthrow the might of those who oppose His constitution, for Allah is mighty in strength and strict in holding humanity to His laws.
-
Let them know that anyone who intervenes on behalf of what is beneficial for mankind shall end up benefiting from it and anyone who intervenes on behalf of what is harmful for mankind shall end up getting harmed by it, because so Allah has set this measure on everything as His law.
-
So when any people welcome you with goodwill towards you let your goodwill towards them be as good in return or even better. Indeed Allah keeps all things operating according to His set laws.
-
None has the right to rule and set laws for things to work according to but Allah. He will certainly gather you all together on the day of uprising, there is no doubt about it, and whose rule is self evidently proper according to the reality of the world other than that of Allah?
-
What is the matter with you that you are in two minds concerning people who want to live by double standards but say they do not whereas Allah has made them obvious as a consequence of their misdeeds? Do you still wish to guide those whom Allah has left in their self created confusion due to their own actions? Surely whom Allah finds ignoring His guidance you cannot enlighten such people.
-
Their real aim is to see that you too reject and oppose the rule according to the constitution of Allah as they did, so that you all become exactly the same and are on the same side of a clear divide. Therefore you should not seek support from their ranks for installing the rule according to constitution of Allah unless they move towards the rule of Allah but if they oppose instead then target them by campaigning against them wherever you find them plotting and campaigning against the rule of Allah and do not take any of them as friends or helpers.
-
Campaign must continue against such people everywhere save those who live under rule of another people with whom you have signed a peace agreement and they stop them from attacking you or those who repent and reform and come over to you in peace because their minds have stopped them due to being convinced that they were doing the wrong thing by plotting and campaigning against you as well as their own people. Had constitution of Allah left them any justification to fight for, they could have continued their campaign against you so if they leave you in peace by not campaigning against you anymore and instead offer you a peace treaty, in that case Allah does not grant you the right to target any campaign against them.
-
But you have yet others who play both ways and still wish to remain safe from you as well as from their own people. They plunge into conspiracies to cause wars and hostilities as soon as they get any opportunities. Therefore if they do not keep away from doing this against you and offer you no peace agreement nor cease their hostilities against you then you may target them and fight them wherever you find them campaigning against the rule according to the constitution of Allah but remember, only against such troublesome people We grant you the right to do so.
-
Remember that it is neither sensible nor lawful for a peaceful person that he should deliberately kill another peaceful person but it can happen by mistake, so if any peaceful person kills another peaceful person by mistake and if such a person is from within your own peaceful community then his neck should be spared by the community administration from charge of murder through a written affidavit whereby he assures his community about his commitment to peace through confirmation of his past behaviour as an accepted rule. If the victim is from an enemy people that refused to have any peace treaty with you but the victim was a member of peaceful community then freeing the neck of the person who caused the death from murder charge is sufficient on the basis of his written affidavit assuring his commitment to peace to peaceful community. However if the victim belongs to a people with whom you have a peace treaty then blood money should be paid to his people as well as the person who caused the death should be freed from charge of murder on basis of his written affidavit assuring peaceful community his commitment to peace and peace agreement. Anyone who is not sure about his role in case of peace and war situations he should turn to revelation of Allah to reflect upon, for Allah is able to make evident what He knows about people by results of their actions.
-
For any who kills any peaceful person intentionally, his reward is anguish to live with it for rest of his life. He has moved himself away from the blissful revelation of Allah so there awaits for such a person painful suffering.
-
O you who claim to be committed to working for peace! When you go forth on campaigning trips in the cause of Allah investigate carefully before you attack any people merely on basis of unreliable information about them. Moreover say not to any people who welcome you with assurance of peace that you are not a peaceful people just so that you could attack and plunder them like bandits under false pretext like you used to before you accepted to live by constitution of peace. So follow plan of Allah instead because in following the plan of Allah faithfully is your peace, progress and prosperity. Remember that you yourselves were in the same state of affairs before you placed your trust in clear guidance from Allah. Allah has conferred His favours upon you in form of a divine constitution therefore make a thorough investigation before you attack a people pre-emptively merely on basis of rumours. For Allah is well capable of exposing all that you do, so do no harm to other or your ulterior motives will become exposed by your actions.
-
Those who stay at home and suffer not the hardship despite supporting the struggle from among those who claim to be committed to working for peace and prosperity of mankind are not equal to those who take part in struggle for installing the constitution of Allah for the good of mankind with what they have and their persons. Allah makes participation of those who partake in struggle themselves with whatever they have more evident than those who do not. Though Allah promises a good reward for all as a community yet much greater reward from Allah awaits those who struggle for His set objective than for those who stay put,
-
heights of dignity from Him by way of removal of all ills and harms due to bliss of revelation, for Allah protects mankind through His blissful revelation.
-
As for the trapped people suffering under oppression, indeed whenever the people based upon authority of Our revelation came to rescue them they asked them, what is your state of affairs? They replied, we were suppressed in our land. The rescuers used to say to them, was not the earth of Allah spacious enough for you to migrate and go somewhere else to start a new life free from oppression and suppression? Such are the people who end up in suffering as keep their eyes shut as to what is going on all around them and react not to stop the harm when it begins from spreading till gradually it takes over them making their life hell and that is a terrible state of existence to be in.
-
Even though they let this entrapping happen to themselves yet the trapped people should have among them leaders and followers as an organised community despite having no means to migrate nor strength to escape
-
for Allah brings about means to help such people escape their suffering provided they play their part in this operation properly because Allah is generous in giving people time to correct their mistakes and remove their self inflicted ills and harms against each other.
-
Moreover any people who wish to make a move for installing the constitution of Allah they will find a very fertile ground that can home this constitution and abundant resources. Also any who leaves his home to move to live under constitution of Allah as installed by His messenger but dies on the way he is due his reward that Allah will make obvious as fruit of his deeds in due course, for Allah makes His protection for people evident through His blissful revelation indeed.
-
So when you have to go about in the land looking for a place for installing divine constitution, there is no harm in it for you if you contingently despatch forces for the training of warfare, especially when you fear that the warmongers against constitution of Islam may attack you, since warmongers against Islam are your open enemies.
-
Therefore when you O prophet are with them leading them in new or refreshment training let one party of them commence the training session with you armed with their weapons. After they have completed their session, let them withdraw to take their formal position and let the other party who have not yet had their training session come forward to train with you, however let all of them be on their guard at all times armed with their weapons. The enemies wish to see you neglect your sense of need for arms and training and your sense of responsibilities, so that they could suddenly attack to overpower you all in one go. However, there is no blame on you if you relax your attention to arms and training when environment is of calm and you have no worries for being attacked but you should still be on your guard appropriately. No doubt Allah will make evident the humiliating suffering that awaits for the enemies of peace.
-
Then when you have completed the armed training sessions then strive hard to think out ways for installing the constitution of Allah, establishing it and maintaining it on basis of your mutual brotherhood. And when you have accomplished this mission then establish regular training sessions. Surely training session are a must for those who are committed to working for peace according to a set program and a timetables,
-
so that you show no lack or weakness in pursuing the mission of peace and people who attack you. If this means you will suffer hardships then realise that they too will be suffering similar hardships to get what they want. Moreover you have the hope to receive reward from Allah while they do not. This is how Allah makes His wisdom obvious.
-
We have indeed revealed to you Our constitution for purpose of consistency so that you people could judge between people regarding their affairs in accordance to guidance Allah has shown you, so you people should never advocate for those who cheat and create wars
-
instead seek removal of difficulties and harms between yourselves using guidance from Allah, for Allah is helpful to mankind in removing difficulties of people by drawing their attention towards their solutions.
-
So never act on behalf of those who cheat even their own people, for Allah supports not the treacherous people who oppose His guidance by their actions.
-
Such may succeed in hiding their crimes against humanity from the people but they cannot hide them from Allah who makes evident all that people do in due course. He is with them even when they plot by night in words that He does not approve. Allah encompasses all that they do and makes it obvious in time.
-
You people may act for them in greed for things of this life just now but who will act for them against law of Allah on the day of uprising if you let things continue like this or who will defend the harm and destruction they inflict on others?
-
However if any people do any harm to other people or their own people but then repents and reforms in accordance to Allah’s guidance, such people will find Allah bringing relief to them through His revealed program as His blessings for them.
-
Surely any group of people who do any harm to any other people in actual fact do it against its own people because what they send round comes round, that is how Allah make evident His wisdom for mankind.
-
Moreover if any people commits a crime and put blame on another people, such a group should indeed bear the burden of false accusation as well as of intentional harm to its victim.
-
If Allah’s guidance in form of His blessing was not with you people, a group of people was determined to mislead you. They can misled none but people who listen to them blindly and follow them but they cannot do you any harm at all because Allah has revealed to you people the book and the wisdom thereby taught you that which you knew not, great indeed is the guidance of Allah for blessing you with peace by way of unity, progress and prosperity.
-
There is no benefit indeed in most of the secret meetings of the people because of conspiracies against what is good for humanity, it is however good even if one does it secretly to bring to humanity what is beneficial for it or plans to be kind to others, or works for reconciliation among people to unite them for the good of mankind. The one who does this to please Allah will soon be rewarded greatly.
-
And any party conspires hostility against the messenger after the guidance from Allah has been plainly conveyed to it and follows a path other than that of the rightly guided people, We shall leave it on that path it has chosen for itself and let it land in life of painful suffering, which is a terrible state of existence to be in.
-
Surely Allah removes not rivalry from between any people who attribute sovereignty to His opponents but He does remove animosities and conflicts from among those who are consistent with His constitution for the good of themselves. For any people that commit to rule of other than that of Allah, such a party has indeed gone far away from the path that is right for removing conflicts and leads to peace.
-
They invite against constitution of Allah to nothing but baseless ideologies and practices that harm and weaken humanity so they call to nothing but to slavery of harmful and destructive administration
-
the one that is far from being based upon constitution of Allah. For such an administration makes its declared goal that I will take a major portion of the people the community raises for leadership and make them accomplish my objectives.
-
I will lead them away from your constitution with destructive ambitions and convince them to treat each other in ways that hinder their progress and prosperity. I will inspire them to tamper with Allah’s creation in a way that leads them to harm and destruction. Therefore whoever takes the path of harmful and destructive administration or leadership against Allah’s constitution is surely bound for loss.
-
The destructive leadership makes them promises to implant in them harmful ambitions, surely the destructive leadership makes them promises only to give them false hopes.
-
The end of such people who follow it will be suffering in agony from where they will find no way to escape unless they repent and reform.
-
As for those who claim to be committed to working for peace and prosperity of mankind and they act clearing up the way for installation of divine constitution We will soon land them into blissful kingdoms in which livelihood flows like rivers to live therein for as long as they remain committed to Our program for them. This is promise of Allah that surely stands confirmed, for who can speak such self evident truth other than Allah?
-
Say to those who live their lives against the constitution of Allah, neither according to your desires nor those of the people of the book the results of your actions will be determined by rule of consequences that whoever will do harm to others will end up with harm and he will find none to protect or help him against set rule of Allah.
-
Also whoever takes actions that are beneficial for mankind regardless male or female provided he or she remains committed to working for peace will indeed enter blissful kingdom and will not be harmed even in the least.
-
And whose better at following the proper constitution than the one who is committed to goal of peace among mankind according to the constitution of Allah and he works for the good of others and supports the path of Abraham the upright one, whom Allah chose to be His role model for mankind?
-
So be aware that to Allah belongs all that is in the heavens and in the earth and Allah operates everything by His set laws.
-
As appropriate administration is vital for progress and prosperity of a community that is why people will seek of you guidance regarding recruitments and appointments in administrations of communities. Tell them, Allah advises you about them as is recited to you in the book regarding individuals of the communities whom you take on as trainees so you do not give them their full legal rights and responsibilities yet but whom you desire to involve in administrative work once they have completed their training and are ready. He instructs you specifically regarding appropriate treatment of these individuals, though you should stand firm for just treatment of all individuals in the human community. Beware! Whatever good you do Allah surely makes it obvious by its results.
-
However in case a community becomes concerned about its administration going beyond its constitutional rights or moving away from its constitutional responsibilities, there should be no obstacle in both the parties agreeing upon terms and procedures for putting things back on track between them, after all compromise is better to bring and keep people together. Also it should be kept in mind that greed for more is present in human nature therefore if you show generosity towards each other and be consistent in your dealings with each other then Allah is aware of all that you do and He will reward you accordingly.
-
As it is not always possible for you the people to keep consistency between all your administrations and communities or people in matters of justice even though you would want to but so long as you do not uplift one to the extent that you end up pushing down the other you should be alright if you work out an overall mutually beneficial understanding and be consistent, for Allah too is surely generous in His compassion to facilitate betterment for you.
-
This is how if the parties disagree Allah provides ample solutions for vast amount of problems, for Allah takes care of all affairs by way of His vast amount of wisdom
-
as to Allah belongs all that is in the heavens and in the earth to take care of. This is why We directed the people of the book before you and now advise you also to be consistent with constitution of Allah when you deal with each other, because if you go against it then be warned that it will prove harmful for you as to Allah belongs all that is in the heavens and in the earth so He knows what He is telling you and Allah has no ulterior motives because He is self-sufficient to whom alone belongs sovereignty of this entire kingdom of universe.
-
Because to Allah belongs all that is in the heavens and in the earth so laws of Allah are sufficient to deal with all affairs therefore you too should work according to His constitution.
-
If it was His plan to destroy you the people and bring in your place some other creatures then He could have destroyed you all and brought other things in you place because Allah had the power to do so but this was not His purpose for creating you rather He desired that you live by His book so that you stay safe and prosper.
-
So anyone who desires the good things of this world as reward should know that with Allah rest the rewards of good things for both the worlds, this world and the hereafter and Allah is all hearing and all seeing.
-
O you who claim to be committed to working for peace! Take firm stand for what is just and fair and bear witness to the truth of any matter according to the constitution of Allah and not for personal advantage, even though the matter be against your own people, your administrations or your related communities. It should matter not whether the party is rich or poor, powerful or weak - for Allah is the Master of both. So let not your selfish destructive ambitions and desires swerve you from justice. If you distort your testimony or decline stating it then you should remember that Allah is fully aware of all that you do and He is able to expose your such deeds in time by their results.
-
O you who claim to be committed to working for peace and prosperity of mankind! Strive for peace and prosperity of mankind according to program of Allah along with His messenger according to the constitution He has revealed to this messenger just as people did before you according to books He revealed earlier. Because he who opposed constitution of Allah and His authorized people in community administration and His constitution in form of books and His messengers and the time when results of actions of people were made evident had strayed far from the path that was right.
-
As for those who commit to working for peace and prosperity of mankind then for war and destruction then again for peace and prosperity and then again for war and destruction then go on increasing their efforts in this direction, Allah will neither free them of the ill results of their actions nor without their own efforts guide them to the way that is right
-
instead announce the painful suffering for such hypocrites as the consequence of their transgressions against each other.
-
Those who take the rejecters and opposers of Our constitution as their friends instead of those who claim to support installation of Our constitution, are they seeking dignified life through their rules whose sole aim is harming and destroying thereby dishonouring others whereas dignity and honour for humanity in its entirety rests in honouring constitution of Allah alone?
140 He has already revealed for you in the book that when you hear goals of Allah set for you being attacked and disdained by people due to their ignorance, you must not sit idle listening to them but engage them in a proper dialogue properly unless they decline the engagement as otherwise you too are acting like them ignorant not using Allah’s guidance to guide them. Be warned that Allah is going to let gather together the secret opposers of His guidance and the open opposers of it in life of pain and suffering.
-
The secret opposers from within are the ones who wait and see which way the wind blows. If constitution of Allah opens the way to progress and prosperity for you, they claim the credit for it of you saying, were we not with you to help you achieve this? And if the opposers of Our constitution gain upper hand, they claim credit of them saying, were we not stronger competitors against you yet we protected you from the people committed to working for peace and prosperity by conspiring against them thereby did not let them succeed against you? Allah will make His decision evident between you and them on the day when people will rise up against harmful and destructive ruling elite and their supporters. Surely Allah will not let opposers of His constitution triumph over those who fully support its installation.
-
Surely the hypocrites try to undermine the struggle for the installation of the constitution of Allah but He lets them thereby expose themselves, watch how they struggle for the installation of the divine constitution, they go along with the struggle reluctantly merely to be seen by masses to deceive them because they really do not support the idea of living by revelation of Allah even the least.
-
It is because they are confused so they keep changing their minds, belonging neither to this nor to that. It is because whom Allah finds straying himself, for him you cannot find the way.
-
So O you who claim to be committed to working for peace and prosperity of mankind, do not choose those who oppose installation of Our constitution as your friends instead of those who are committed to working for peace and are struggling for installation of divine constitution. Would you be foolish enough to furnish Allah with clear proof against yourselves?
-
Surely the secret opposers of struggle for installation of divine constitution in the land are fallen to the lowest degree in morality in kindling the fire of hatred between people so you will not find any helper for them to drag them out of there other than their own effort.
-
However, those of them who repent and reform and hold fast onto constitution of Allah as safety net and become sincere supporters of struggle for installation of constitution of Allah in the land then they are to be considered part of those who are committed to working for peace and prosperity of mankind and are struggling for it. And Allah will soon grant those committed to working for peace and prosperity of mankind a mighty reward.
-
Just think for a while why would Allah leave any of you to suffering if you were all consistent with each other and were working for peace and prosperity of mankind? For Allah gracefully ensures success of those consistent in their efforts to better their world.
-
Allah does not approve use of even hurtful words between people let alone their harmful actions against each other unless one is hurt without justification and steps have to be taken by the administration to redress the balance. Therefore harm not each other, for Allah is all hearing and all knowing so He makes evident the results of peoples’ actions in due course so be good with each other.
-
If you do good for each other openly or in private or relieve each other from any harm then surely Allah has set laws to relieve you the people of any harm that might have come upon you as a result of someone’s harmful action.
-
It was always the case that those who rejected and opposed installation of constitution of Allah by His messengers also planned conflict between those who claimed to support installation of constitution of Allah by His messengers by confusing them through their conspiracies against constitution of Allah therefore they would end up with make beliefs as if saying, we accept some part of the divine constitution and reject the other whereby they sought a middle way between rule of Allah and rule of harmful and destructive rulers and their priests.
-
However such like are the ones who really oppose the rule according to Our constitution but We envisage awaiting for such opposers of Our rule humiliating suffering.
-
As for those who committed to working for peace for installation of constitution of Allah along His messengers and did not create any conflict between people involved in struggle, We soon gave them their due rewards because Allah bestows prosperity on people by way of His revealed constitution as His blessing.
-
For that reason the people of the book demanded of you that you give to them the divine constitution just as they made a great demand of Moses similar to this. They requested him, show us Allah’s constitution clearly because at length after Joseph they were taken over by gloom due to inflicting harm on each other as they took over the seat of power after clear guidelines had come to them and contravened the divine constitution. However we relieved them of their ignorance by giving Moses the guidance manifest.
-
And We bound them together as a community through obligations by way of imposing upon them Our constitution and We said to them, enter the gate of peace and prosperity submitting to Our constitution and We said to them, transgress not the limit set by Our constitution and we took of them a solemn but firm pledge.
-
Yet they breached their contract and rejected the terms and obligations set by Allah and fought with their prophets without any justification. Despite doing all this they claim, our brains are full of knowledge. Nay, they are not! rather all the evidence is to the contrary that Allah has let them box in their brains as if in sealed containers due to their habitual persistent opposition to His constitution because of their holding onto their make beliefs. For the same reason they commit not to working for peace save a minority.
-
Moreover due to their rejection and opposition to Our rule through their levelling of great number of false accusations against the newly found community (Mariam).
-
Also due to their claim that we fought against the Messiah Jesus son of nation of Mary the messenger of Allah even though they fought him not, nor did they manage to get hold of him instead they are in a confusion about this whole affair. So those who dispute as to what really happened are surely in doubt about him. They have no real knowledge rather they follow nothing but conjectures, certainly they fought him not,
-
nay, not at all instead Allah drew him to His mission to fulfil it. For Allah is mighty in wisdom.
-
So there should be none of the leading figures from among the people of the book but one should commit oneself to working for peace before the demise of his power because otherwise the day of uprising will make this fact evident for them.
-
It is because of the transgression of those who claim to be Jews against Our constitution that We let them suffer the consequences by way of letting their priests make unlawful for them that which was good and lawful for them and due to their misleading of many people from the way of Allah,
-
as well as due to their hoarding and profiteering of others in spite the prohibition and due to their cheating of others out of their rights and responsibilities. Thus We let some of those who opposed Our constitution prepare a way to painful suffering for those who also opposed Our constitution.
-
On the contrary those from among them who were well grounded in knowledge of Our constitution therefore were committed to working for peace and still strive for peace on the basis of what is revealed to you and what was revealed to prophets before you to install divine constitution in order to attain freedom from all manmade ills, thus they worked and are still working for peace for installing the constitution of Allah for the good end result for the mankind. These are the ones who will make great progress and end up greatly prosperous.
-
Indeed We have sent revelation to you just as We sent to Noah and the Prophets who came after him. We also sent revelations to Abraham, Ishmael, Isaac,
Jacob, his ideological descendants, Jesus, Job, Jonah, Aaron and Solomon, and to David We gave the Zuboor. -
Also to the messengers We have told you about and the messengers We have not mentioned to you and to Moses Allah spoke likewise through the revealed book.
-
All Our messengers conveyed good news to mankind for making the world a better place with help of Our constitution and warned them with consequences for doing things against that so that after the message has reached them through Our Messengers people have no justification against Allah for their self created suffering. Allah is surely a ruler full of wisdom.
-
Therefore Allah bears witness that what He has sent to you, He has sent it to make evident His knowledge and so should make evident to other people the people who derive their authorisation from the revealed constitution because sufficient is Allah’s testimony as a proof for mankind to accept it as His constitution for them.
-
Surely those who oppose installation of Our constitution therefore hinder others from following the rule of law of Allah, they have indeed strayed far away from the path that is proper.
-
Allah will neither free those people of their troubles who oppose installation of His constitution and act against it as the consequences of their actions nor lead them to the way
-
other than the one chosen by them themselves that will land them in painful suffering wherein they will remain forever unless they repent and reform and this is a matter straight forward as far as Allah is concerned.
-
O you the mankind! there has come to you the messenger with proof from your Lord therefore commit to working for peace by supporting him so that things could be better for you. But if you reject and oppose his advice then you will not have peace nor will you prosper because to Allah belongs all that is in the heavens and in the earth and Allah knows how to run all affairs wisely.
-
O people of the book! Attribute not opposing ideas and practices to your given divine constitution and attribute nothing to the constitution of Allah save that which is consistent with His constitution. Surely the Messiah, Jesus son of nation of Mary was no more than a messenger of Allah and His mouthpiece through which He inspired nation of Mary as an encouragement from Him. So commit to working for peace according to constitution of Allah just like His messengers and proclaim not the doctrine of Trinity rather stay away from it so that things get better for you. Surely Allah is the only sovereign. Free is He from the need and purpose of having a successor. To Him belongs all that is in the heavens and in the earth and Allah alone is sufficient disposer of all affairs needing no assistant.
-
Never did the Messiah disdained from serving humanity according to constitution of Allah, nor do the people who derive their authority from the constitution who have dignified positions according to His constitution and whoever disdains serving humanity according to His constitution and is arrogant such will ultimately be gathered together under His constitution.
-
As to those who commit to working for peace and facilitate path for peace by removing obstacles on to this way, He will join them with their due rewards and give them more than their due from Himself but He will let remain in painful suffering those who earn it because they are disdainful and arrogant and they will find none to protect or help them against set laws of Allah.
-
O mankind! There has come to you indeed a convincing proof from your Lord because We have sent to you a glorious torch of knowledge to lighten up the path of peace for you.
-
So those who commit to working for peace and hold fast to it by their actions, He will soon cover them up with His blessings in abundance and will keep leading them along the path firmly founded.
-
Therefore you will be asked about everything relating communities and administrations. Say, Allah advises you about everything regarding communities and administrations. Even in case an administration is wound up because it has no people to look after but has a sister administration then half of its rights and responsibilities should become its rights and responsibilities while the other half will be for the mother administration. That is how its supporting administration will inherit its rights and responsibilities in case there is no community to manage. If there were two sister administration then two thirds of rights and responsibilities will go to two sisters and the one third to their mother administration. However if an administration worked with more than two administrations and communities then the share of rights and responsibilities for each administration will be equal to that of two communities. Thus Allah makes His commandments clear to you lest you err, that is how Allah makes obvious everything.
