Commentary
To manifest the
excellence of the blessed month of Ramadan Allah Almighty explained in the
beginning of this verse that Holy Qur’an was begun to reveal
upon the Last Messenger of God Almighty (grace, glory, blessings and peace be
upon Him) in this month. Now three characteristics of Holy Qur’an have
been explained as under:
- Hudan (guidance)
–Holy Qur’an is spring of guidance for the entire
humankind. Every individual can get to know the Straight Path to reach the
Creator and the object destination of life only through this Scripture.
Every source of guidance other than Holy Qur’an misleads.
Except it, every path will be the path of straying and deviation. Only
Holy Qur’an is the Scripture which can guide unto the
Straight Path. Aggregately to pass the human life successfully, Holy Qur’an provides
all those principles and codes regarding its all aspects, which indicate
towards the Straight Path and the aimed destination. It has been mentioned
in this verse Hudal-linnaas (guidance for the whole
mankind). For more details of the word ‘guidance’ please study Lesson # 9
from Holy Qur’an (STRAIGHT PATH).
- Bayyinaatim-minal-hudaa – (clear
proofs of the guidance) Holy Qur’an has so explained the
entire principles and codes of guidance that these have become completely
clear, easy, simple and light, and every individual can understand them
easily because excellence of Holy Qur’an is ‘bayyinaat’
(clear proofs). So the principles of Holy Qur’an relate
to common sense, simple and practicable. Nothing is against the wisdom and
no principle is impracticable.
- Al-furqaan – (the Criterion
(separator of right from wrong), it is the third excellence of Holy Qur’an that
the people who recite this Sacred Scripture, correct decision power grows
into them. They become capable to make a distinction between true and
false, just and absurd, truth and a lie, faith and infidelity, correction
and quarrel, obedience and rebellion, worship and refusal. They can
distinguish among good and bad. So ‘Al-Furqaan’ (the
Criterion (of right and wrong) is also the characteristic of the
Holy Qur’an.
The book like this,
which has these three characteristics, if Her every command is not the Message
of life for humankind, then what is this? Its each command has been filled with
countless auspiciousness, blessings and wisdom.
Would that the Muslims get it understood
themselves, as well as cause to understand also to the world. If we are unable
to spread the Word of Allah Almighty in every corner of the world then it would
be dishonesty in the Trust.
