AZ-ZUMAR (39) ============= 39:5 He it is who has created the heavens and the earth in accordance with [an inner] truth.5 He causes the night to flow into the day, and causes the day to flow into the night; and He has made the sun and the moon subservient , each running its course for a term set. Is not He the Almighty, the All-Forgiving? 39:6 He created you from one life cell, then created from him his mate. He sent down to you eight kinds of livestock. He creates you in your mothers bellies, creation after creation, in trimesters of darkness. Such is Allah your Rubb. To Him belongs all sovereignty. There is no other god beside Him. How could you deviate?, 39:7 If you are ingrate behold, Allah has no need of you; none the less, He does not approve of ingratitude in His servants: whereas, if you show gratitude, He approves it in you. And no bearer of burdens shall be made to bear anothers burden. In time, unto your Rubb you all must return, and then He will make you understand all that you were doing [in life]: for, verily, He has full knowledge of what is in the hearts. 39:8 When the human being is afflicted, he implores his Lord, sincerely devoted to Him. But as soon as He blesses him, he forgets his previous imploring, sets up idols to rank with GOD and to divert others from His path. Say, Enjoy your disbelief temporarily; you have incurred the hell-fire. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Exposition: 5.He created the heavens and the earth in true and perfect proportions, to bring out positive and constrictive results. He made the earth revolve in such a manner that the night blankets the day and the day covers the night. He has made the sun and the moon subservient to His Laws. Each heavenly body follows a set course, up to a limited time. All this is happening according to the Laws of Allah, Who has absolute control and supremacy and has the provisions for protecting everything. (So why should He have a son?) 6.He initiated your creation from a single living cell (6:79) and then caused it to split into two parts, one becoming the male and the other female. He also created eight types of cattle (namely camel, cow, sheep and goats, all in pairs ~ 6:144-145). When you are still in the mothers womb, He fashions you, inculcating creative changes in different stages. These changes constitute one act of creation after another; and all this takes place (not in one but) under three veils of darkness. This then is your Allah, according to Whose Laws of Rabubiyyat your development and nourishment take place. He alone wields total authority and power in the universe. No one else has such power or authority. (In leaving Him aside) Just reflect on where are you going? (After leaving God’s Laws, is there another way?) 7. (In view of the above facts, wisdom and rationale should demand that you obey only the Divine Laws, but) Your rejection of these laws brings no harm to Allah; only you shall suffer. He does not need your obedience. If you follow your self-made laws, your way of life will not be that which has been ordained by Him for your development. If you follow the Divine Laws, then you are following the course which He has approved for your development. (Therefore it is entirely up to you to either obey and follow His Laws for your own benefit or to reject them and suffer the consequences. It should also be clearly understood that according to His Laws of Mukafat) Everyone has to bear the burden and consequences of one’s own deeds, not anyone else’s. Every step of yours takes you towards His Law of Mukafat, and you cannot escape its ambit. Accordingly, you are bound to face the result of every action of yours. And this refers not only to those actions which you do openly, but also to the thoughts and intentions which pass through the depths of your hearts. 3 The veils of darkness are the external skin, the womb and the placenta that holds the baby. Even the placenta itself is in 2 layers, and if these are counted as two, the womb could be the third layer. 8.Man, however, is strange. When he is afflicted he cries out to Allah from the depth of his heart. But as soon as he obtains comfort, he forgets all the cries with which he had implored the Almighty, and starts claiming that the affliction was removed by so and so. Thus not only does he himself go astray, he misleads others too. Just tell them, By denying the Divine Laws, you can derive as much benefit as you like for a while, but ultimately all this will come down to ashes.”
