Commentary
Maalikal-Mulki – (Owner of
Sovereignty), Allah Almighty has described about this virtue of His Ownership
particularly for the purpose so that the human being should perceive about His
Powers and Strength. The humankind should not forget the Real Owner (Allah
Almighty) in the intoxication of his temporary and transitory worldly power,
influence and dignity. So that four days’ moving shadow may not make him
careless from the commands of Supreme Commander (Allah Almighty).
This verse of Holy Qur’an has
a specific Peculiarity. That is, “there is description about Perfect Power of
Allah Almighty and utmost limit of inability and helplessness of the human
being in the manner that nobody can deny”. It is the reason that our Muslim
devotees use to tell their followers about this verse for repeating it as daily
worship.
If there is need to mention this verse in
connection with the Christians’ body of delegates from Najraan (Syria ),
then we shall relate it as, “O Christian Scholars! You are proud of the honor
and sovereignty of the kings, understand it well that entire sovereign of the
entire world and the Owner of the Dignity is Allah Almighty. Every thing is in
His Hand. He gives to whom He wills and withdraws from whom He wishes. Allah
Almighty has shown practical demonstration of this reality to the entire world,
while He made owner of the treasures of Roman and Persian sovereignty to an
inferior and poor group (of newly Muslims). Then what is the worldly kingdom
and honor?
Allah Almighty transferred last place of
spiritual sovereignty and honor i.e. Prophet-hood from the Children of Israel
to the Children of Ishmael. The words of this verse are taught to the Muslims
in the form of supplication. And it explained that the persons who were poor,
they would become owners of the sovereignty due to their faith, and who were
kings, they would fall in disgrace due to their bad acts. The good (of all
kinds) is In the Hand of Allah Almighty. He is Able to do all things.
