Commentary
‘Al-‘Aakhirati – means “the
next life; coming after death”. It is called ‘Ad-Daarul- ‘Aakhirah in Holy Qur’an and Yawmul-
‘Aakhirah also.
Yuuqinuun – (they
believe). This word has been derived from ‘Iiqaan, which has come
out from yaqiin. Yaqiin (Belief) is the Knowledge, which has
been obvious by the proof as much that no room for doubts and suspicions has
remained.
This world is “a place
of striving”. That is to say; such life, after which, the time of practice is
over. The world coming after this life is called “the place of Requital” in
which; every person will be rewarded or punished according to his every act and
deed, he performed or committed in this world. There is no doubt that we get
retaliation in terms of events in this world but sometimes, it happens that the
people are not rewarded or punished fully. The individuals with Good deeds are
deprived of getting rewards and wrongdoers are saved from the punishment.
Whereas, the justice demands that any act of any person must not be left without
retaliation. So, God Almighty has fixed a Day on which; every human being and
every nation will get its reward or punishment in full; against every good or
bad act. Hence, believing in a sustainable future of this world for reward and
punishment is an important component of a true religion.
It has been cleared
also that the Hereafter has strong relation with this world. That life will be
the result of our deeds, we do in this world. Therefore, it is the attribute of
the pious people that they get satisfaction before starting any work; whether
the work, they are going to do, is not against the heavenly teachings and
guidance of God Almighty in terms of the future and the result?
God Almighty has
given us full liberty of selection and power of choice for deeds and acts. We
have many ways to reach the destination. But we have to choose the path about
which Allah Almighty has guided us. If the belief regarding the end of this
world, rewards or punishments according to good or bad deeds – is kept in view
by us every time, then it is sure that we shall remain firm on the path of the
Truth and temperance in this worldly life. We should mold our lives according
to the principles of Holy Qur-‘aan, so that; we may acquire much
pleasant results from it and we may succeed in the both worlds. The person, who
has not faith in liability of his acts, calculation of good and bad deeds and
their results, he will never correct his deeds.
