Surah 46 AL-AHQAAF–The unevenness in human population or social divisions based on negative discrimination

This surah is named AL-AHQAAF from root HAA, QAAF and FAA. Concrete meaning of this root is a road with twists and turns highs and lows. A winding sandy track full of dunes or hills or mountains, a long or high round hill or mountain. To turn or twist or curve. An uneven or bumpy road full of ups and downs. A human population that is divided on prejudicial social grounds or suffers from fractures in community relationships etc etc.

This surah is named AL-AHQAAF which is about the way of life that evens out unevenness or social imbalances in human population by removing divisions in human population based on geography, race, caste, colour, creed, gender, culture, politics, economy and religion etc because the Quran talks about roadmap for life that helps humanity come together and work in harmony ie the way people should live their lives. The question is, how people live their lives and how they will be better off living their lives? They live their lives on basis of exploiting and manipulating each other or on the basis of use and abuse of each other for personal gains, which is also called selfishness or greed based way of life. In this way of life people who have any advantage they use it against others to use or abuse them and the result is an unending chain of rivalries and animosities to outdo each other at doing worst to each other. In other words none of us wants to end up losing to others but since this is a fight to the end so it becomes a never ending cycle of stupidity. For this reason individuals fight individuals and when some lose they form groups and the groups get bigger and bigger and so a lot of factors end up coming about into play that play their part both inside the groups as well as between the groups. This is why people become divided on basis of vested interests and mere verbal arguments end up in fights and major wars between people. All this because each person wants to dominate others despite knowing it as a fact that that is never possible for anyone the way this world is set up by God to work naturally. This is why many individuals have gone and many groups of people have gone but none had the power for more than several generations.

People should have learned great lessons from all this carry on by mankind but they did not so absolute monarchs gave way to rule by mullaism and after that we have capitalism today where some people are busy making slaves of other people by trying to become their masters but still power is nowhere near in one single hand and it is not going to be and it cannot be. That is because if all money ends up in hands of one man then the rest will have no money so the game will end. A very clear sign that none of the people can ever become absolute master of others but humanity as a whole has been the looser in all this carry on for so many centuries. This game can only go as far as I win you lose and it starts all over again and again so world needs to be set-up in a way whereby use and abuse of some people by others ends and all people live a decent life worth living. Otherwise the result of use and abuse based way of life is that world becomes full of troublemakers and people who suffer the results of those troubles created by themselves. This being the case the Quran gives people an alternative way of life. The question is, what is that way of life and how does it work? This question has been asked again and again by many Muslims and nonMuslims alike but the answer only goes as far as, Islam is the only way of life that is good for mankind but how it is good when no one has explained it yet and how it is supposed to be set up and how it will work? I agree that Islamic way of life is the only way forward for humanity but what is it?

I have explained Islam is not mazhab but ADDEEN. Islam is anti mazhab or religion or dogma or set of make beliefs known as creed etc. It is because mazhab is all about God and man in sense of God created man to worship God. It does not deal with issue of proper relationship or connection between God, man and rest of humanity and the issues that arise from this relationship. It is because unless mankind could exist and develop God has no place in human mind because just to exist and develop is only a low level existence. Humans are special creatures who are created to rise from this level of existence to a much higher level of existence. So higher that fulfils reason for the revelations from God for guidance of mankind. The Quran exempts from responsibilities all those who cannot fulfil responsibilities to the degree that they cannot eg inanimate things, animals, children or elderly or for that matter any mentally or physically limited or incapacitated thing or person. However all the rest must fulfil their responsibilities through self realisation and with full consciousness. This cannot happen till people really study divine message and become fully convinced that there is a God and that it is he who has set them certain goals and guidelines for their own growth and development, peace and prosperity. It is because unless people are clear in their heads about all this they will not have the motivation or incentive to do things they are told in the Quran to do for each other. Islam is not against personal gains but at the expense of rest of humanity. Allah wants people to have as great life as they can have but as a community. It does not allow that some people have things and other go without them. This is what the Quran calls harmful and destructive gains and hoarding. Human community is given by God himself the authority to exploit all that the heavens and the earth has to offer but all must be used properly for the good of mankind. Each person can be fully laden with gold and God has no objection to that but if one person has it and others are forced to go without it then that is a problem as defined by the Quran. Humanity can have as much gold as it can dig out but at the end of the day it must share. This is the foundation of Islamic way of life or the Quranic way of life.

What the Quran condemns is laziness and craziness on part of some people to avoid participation whereby they fail to play their part properly in human society. This is why the program, the constitution and the law for the people to set them goals, with guidelines to ensure proper organisation and regulation of humanity for the purpose of achieving those set goals according to set guidelines. Since Islam is for the good of humanity itself as a community so it is a human family. Therefore it has to organise as a family so it needs no money to operate therefore no business for profit no question of banking interest or usury etc that mullahs fight over due to their ignorance. Islam is business for the benefit of mankind not for profiteering of a few at the expense of many. The Quran is a manifesto or a program which people must know themselves and let others know so that all come together and organise as a people on basis of Quranic brotherhood and get on with job they are told to do. How people are to organise? The organising begins with working out available land, resources and human population and what should be the basic goal to begin with and what should be the end goal and all that goes in between in a proper priority order so that people keep moving up the ladder of success through planning things properly. The time each person will need to rest and also free time and the minimum time each person must work on daily and yearly basis. Not only that but each person must be assigned a job and types or kinds of jobs will depend upon what community needs and in which priority order. There is no payment involved within community because all services should be delivered at the point of need to individuals and groups freely but some mechanism will be needed for dealing with outside world according to some working relationship that benefits community.

All people should be settled properly so that things could be done without much trouble and quickly. For example, people who will be needed to work on farm land should be settled near that and people who work in industry must be settled near those areas or that industry should be build where people are already living if that seems advantageous provided that land has no other better use. In other words where it becomes necessary to move populations do that and where it becomes necessary to move things to populations do that. This is what Islam is all about that proper scholars of Islam must come to know. The main thing is productions of food and distribution of food so that none of the people and the animals they need to take care of remain hungry and thirsty. Healthcare is to be delivered at the point of need. Schools, colleges and universities need to be built to produce people that are needed for producing and distributing all services at points of need. None of these jobs are paid jobs but daily jobs for all people to help their community grow and prosper which will in return help individuals grow and prosper. All agriculture workers, teachers, judges, engineers, builders, scientists and doctors etc etc only and only work on basis of fulfilment of need of community of which they are a member. There is no sense of domination or undermining each other instead all try to help each other the best they can to do their jobs better and better. This is the picture the Quran paints of blissful and dignified human existence. This is why only people with this mindset, attitude and behaviour can build such a kingdom as are brain boxes but full of concern for each other. Not lazy and crazy mullahs and their lazy and crazy followers. One can see how educated and responsibility conscious a person needs to be to be assigned the title of a Muslim. This is why people who are truly Muslims at heart it cannot be that they could be worse than their opponents in their existence or even worse than animals. People of God have to be an example for rest of humanity to follow therefore they cannot be like worse than animals. This is why a Muslim society cannot be based upon any way of life that allows use and abuse of each other because that is basis for divisions and cracks in community spirit.

So ummah needs to wake up and see what their proper place is among nations of the world and go ahead and get it. Sitting on mats in jungle and saying some holy words does not lead anywhere instead people must know and act on the Quranic program. Knowledge alone does not build what it tells people to build, people after learning what they need to do and how to do it need to get up and get going to turn all this into a reality. Once Muslims can show what Islam is as a showcase then others will not take long to come and join Muslims as part of this ummah. So the message of the Quran is a very powerful one but ignorance of the ummah is standing in the way therefore if people want Islam to succeed in the world then they must educate themselves and others about proper Islam to help change this world into a better world the Quran guides to. This should put all the mullahs in place who talk nonsense about Islamic way of life and tell people doing business for profit is Islam or charity is Islam etc etc. These are temporary measures allowed for times when Muslims are living as a part of rest of the world because they have no enough population, land or resources to have their own Islamic state, even then Muslims ought to be an organised community working for the better world by spreading proper message of the Quran for convincing the world that they will be better off joining a proper Islamic movement to eliminate exploitation, use and abuse from the world by turning the world in to a huge welfare state wherein needs of all people are delivered at the point of need. This is why there is no way world could defeat Islam or Muslims who know the Quran properly. However all this needs very hard work by highly motivated and very dedicated people. Islam cannot work unless Muslims have the qualities the Quran wants them to have. The main thing is knowledge and then putting that knowledge into action to make the Quranic program a reality through sensible planning and doing. Mullahs who hardly know meanings of words in the Quran cannot be expected to do much good for Muslims and for that matter rest of humanity. So people who think they are pleasing Allah by banging their heads on the floor and waving their backsides in the air need to use their heads for thinking. God has created man to hold his head high not bury it in sand like ostrich. To rise people need to stand on shoulders of giants of humanity so that they take humanity further on from where those great people left mankind and not come tumbling down and bury themselves deep into ground. This should also explain why the ruling elite, priestly class and money lending elite are all one against Islamic way of life for humanity, because Islam takes away their right to exploit people for their own ends which inflict harm and destruction upon humanity as it is obvious throughout the world. Their welfare programs and charities are all tricks to keep people confused. This way they buy more time for themselves to continue living the way they want to live for as long as they can. It is not only that Muslims need to wake up they need to wake up rest of the world as well against use and abuse and slave labour etc because people need support of each other to change things for making this world a better place. The sooner masses educate themselves and expose use and abuse and become aware of better way of living, the people in the world will unite and change the existing world order, it is only a matter of time as to how fast human beings educate each other and that they become convinced which they way they should go. Unless people who know Islam properly make efforts to show Islamic way of life is better than any way of life, it is not going to happen all by itself. Time for Muslims to put their thinking caps on instead of wasting their available time in nonsense dished out by mullahs to keep them confused enslaved by money lenders, their set-up rulers and mullahs supported by them. Mullahs call to a different Islam and Quran calls to a different Islam. Be able to see the difference between the two ie one is mazhab and other deen.

Proclaim! In the name of Allah, the provider of psychological, sociological and biological needs of mankind,

1] HAA MEEM.

2] This book is revealed by Allah, the mighty wise ruler of the universe for guidance of mankind.

3] We did not created the heavens and the earth and all that lies in between them but for a set purpose and for a set period of time. Yet those who oppose Our guidance pay no attention to things they have been warned against.

Already explained that universe is not created for no reason at all but for a set purpose as explained in detail elsewhere. This like verses are repeated in the Quran to make people realise not to listen to their mullahs who tell them purpose of their creation is worship like ritualism taken on by idol worshippers. This is all invented by mullahs and called religion or dogmatic creed which is nonsense because it is based on make beliefs not concrete evidence. Is it not strange that Muslims destroyed imperialism then started it themselves? Is it not strange that Muslims were supposed to take humanity out of master and slave relationship with each other yet ended up into masters and slaves themselves? Is it not strange that they were suppose to take on all religions and bury them in history forever because they were invented and used by mullahs to destroy humanity yet Muslims themselves allowed turning of Islam into another religion? So wake up by understanding the message of the Quran and change things according to worthy teachings of the Quran.

4] Ask them, have you pondered over those whom you take for rulers other than Allah? Show me anything that they have created in the earth or if they have any share in the creation of the heavens? Bring me any book revealed before this or some remnant of any other such book if what you claim is true.

5] So who could be further away from the proper way of life than the one who relies for his needs and wants upon rulers other than Allah who can never fulfil his needs and wants till the time of uprising when way of life advised by Allah will become established. Moreover they cannot even be properly aware of their requirements.

6] This is why when mankind will be brought together by their unfulfilled needs and wants to the doors of those whom they take for rulers other than Allah they will distance themselves from those who took them for their rulers denying they were ever their subjects.

This verse is telling us how dominant people treat submissive people like dogs who live as their slaves when it comes to paying wage even after they have done their work for them.

7] Yet when Our evidence based messages are proclaimed to them the opponents of Our guidance say about this truth, this is clearly distinguishable falsehood.

8] Do they say, he has invented it himself? Say, if I have invented it myself then you are in no position to give me protection from set-up systems and laws of Allah to stop me from being exposed in due course. His set-up systems and laws will expose in due course whatever you are coming up with about it. Sufficient through this testimony is He as a witness between me and you that He is the provider of the blissful and dignifying program for protection of the mankind.

This is a very powerful refutation of accusation that the claimant of divine messenger-ship himself is an imposter. It is said that lies against Allah cannot remain hidden because everything said in the name of Allah has good or bad outcome for mankind in this world, if outcome is good then whatever was attributed to Allah was actually from him but if the outcome was bad then whatever was attributed to Allah was a lie against Allah. The messenger attributes the Quran to Allah so if the Quran is truly from Allah then working faithfully according to Quranic program ought to produce good outcome for mankind as the Quran promises but if not then it is lie. This verse not only exposes lies of opponents of the Quranic message but also of those who claim to be followers of the Quran if they are not getting the outcome the Quran promises. It means they have not understood the Quran properly so they must review their understanding of the Quranic message. If they do not get outcome the Quran promises and they are adamant that there understanding of the Quran is correct then they are themselves proving the Quran is a lie. This raises a question, who is lying, the Quran or mullahs who claim to know the Quran and are misleading the ummah? This problem can be solved very easily. Test the Quranic interpretations by mullahs. If their interpretations are full of contradictions within the Quran and in between the Quranic statement about universal realities and the real world then they are liars because the Quran claims there are no contradiction within it or between what the Quran states about real world realities and the realities of the real world. This means such people who claim to be scholars of the Quran are either ignorant and are lying that they know the Quran or they are deliberately misleading ummah for some other agenda of their own or they are on a foreign agenda for personal gains. This means ummah needs to wake up and that it should not follow anyone blindly or it will remain in this situation for as long as it does not wake up by educating itself. As explained already rulers, money lenders and mullahs are working together to use and abuse masses and most of the world is in dire poverty. Please go and do search on poverty in all continents eg Asia, Africa, Australia, America and Europe or even in countries of the world. The world governments are organised criminal mafia in hands of each country’s dominant people. There is no concept of unity for peace, progress and prosperity for the blissful and dignified way of life. All countries in the world are controlled by a few powerful families who are treating rest of mankind as their slaves for their use and abuse. Unless people want to continue living like this they must spread the message of the Quran and educate humanity out of its ignorance so that all people could become proper human being so that they could then bring about a world fit for human beings. Allah has provided mankind with everything for their needs and people have been given powerful brains to use provided things to fulfil their needs in light of divine guidance. So don’t let your rulers, mullahs and wealthy people divide you and rule you like monkeys and donkeys. Be human beings that Allah intended you to be by earning your dignity back with help of each other. Be an educated human brotherhood and all problems will become solved. So long as we let clever people get away with becoming our masters by turning ourselves into their slaves we deserve whatever treatment is then meted out to us by them. If we also became sensible then we could turn them into our way of thinking as well and thus turn them into decent human beings. This is how divine messengers turned their chiefs into their brethren. If people wake up then rulers, mullahs and money lenders can also be woken up by them but if still do not then they meet their own ends as explained in the Quran. See stories of Moses and Pharaoh and Joseph and Pharaoh.

9] Tell your people O messenger that I am not a new kind of messenger from among the messengers sent by Allah nor are you a new kind of people unlike the people of the past, like earlier messengers I also do not know what will be done to me by you people nor what will be done to you by me in due course, I follow only what is revealed to me and I am nothing less than a plain warner that the way you live your lives will land you in life full of upheavals.

Upheavals cannot be ruled out in any society that is based upon idea of undue exploitation of each other ie some people using and abusing others. No justice no peace and therefore no progress and prosperity.

10] Say to them also, think about it that if this Quran is indeed from Allah and you people oppose it without studying it even when a testifier from among the children of Israel has also testified to its similarity with earlier scriptures and has committed himself to working for peace, progress and prosperity of mankind while you are taken over by sense of dominance over each other then what are going to be the consequences of it? Surely advice of Allah does not guide those who ignore it and keep inflicting harm and destruction upon each other.

11] Yet the chiefs of the opponents of Our message dare say to those who are committed to working for unity, peace, progress and prosperity of mankind, had there been any personal gain for us in the message of the Quran then you people could not have beaten us in committing to it. Since these people reject the idea of being guided by this message as a proper human community therefore they say, this is a falsehood just like the one that was invented in the past long ago.

12] The fact is before it was revealed the book was also given to Moses which was a guide for people to a blissful and dignifying existence and the contents of this book confirm that in Arabic language to forewarn those who inflict harm and destruction upon each other and to give news of blissful and dignified life to those who have committed themselves to bring about a beautiful world for themselves to live in.

13] Certainly those who say our Master is Allah alone and then remain firmly committed to His given program for them will have no worries about their future nor any regrets for their past.

14] Because such are the people who end up in blissful kingdom as a result of their hard works towards it.

15] That is why We advise man to make life of his elderly and youngster dependents beautiful by helping them overcome their deficiencies, weaknesses and limitations, because through hardship his mother carries him and with much pain she gives him birth. His carrying and his weaning takes thirty months. He is nurtured till he reaches the age of full strength and when he reaches maturity at the age of forty years he says, my Master, grant me the ability to organise and regulate myself so that I use your provisions for me and my dependence in form of elders and youngsters properly so that I work for growth and development of human community according to your approval, thus help me raise my future generations such that they work for growth and development of humanity. I therefore turn to your provided guidance and join community of those who work for peace.

This like verses are not just about parents and children but about community, leadership and following as well as parents and children. Like a mother good community also nurtures its members so that the generations raised nicely become good community and so things carry on. People in community who suffer from various limitations should be given needed help to make their life worth living along with dignified death planning for those who no longer are able to live and enjoy life. The Quran is very much about properly organised and regulated life and death. There is no sense in killing people who want to live and keeping alive those who no longer wish to continue living due to problems that humanity has not learned to overcome yet. All this because people have limitations as human beings. So long as people do all they can for each other in all honesty whatever they decide about themselves and each other is fine. Putting people to sleep who had enough of life and putting people to death for no justification are two different things. Society cannot carry burdens beyond its capability so it will be better off with planning things in advance in order to give better future for its future generations instead of killing them under pressure of keeping the elderly people alive. This will make life hell for them both, this is why the balance in planning is absolutely necessary. Family planning is part of community planning because no community can afford excessive population be it extra children or out numbering elderly population.

A balanced human population is necessary for blissful and dignified existence of humanity. The Quran does not make life decisions based on peoples’ emotions instead it tells people to keep reality in forefront of their minds when planning and doing things. It is one thing that people divide and make decisions as factions to take advantage of each other but quite another to make community centred decisions. If people as a united community make decisions as to what is good for them or what they can cope with that is exactly as the Quran wants them to do things ie all decisions must be founded on sound values and principles. The idea that you can keep on having kids and Allah will take care of them is mullah based Islam. They have no sense what the Quran is saying. The Quran puts mankind in-charge for their own affairs but as a community. This is why community should only have as many children as it needs and can take good care of and likewise it should not try to keep its such elderly alive who are better off dead. The Quran does not give same value to all life forms and lives of all people but decision is left to community as a united entity. Individuals have no right to make such decisions because who should stay and who should go needs a good study of who will benefit community the most while alive and whose loss will cause least loss for human community. This is why community should get rid of anyone least valuable to community if it must or if it has to make that decision. Life decisions are not easy to make there come times when humanity as a whole must choose between bad and worse or good and better. All this because human beings are limited beings at the end of the day despite whatever they can plan and do. One of the main reasons for revelation of the Quran is cutting down human suffering where needed provided it is done in the interest of the community and the sufferer.

16] Such are the people whose beautiful works that help community grow and prosper We approve thereby We help them overcome their works that cause damage among people of blissful kingdom. That is how proves true to them that which We promise.

17] Yet he who is told by his parents to live by way of Allah or you will become lost says to them, mind your own business, are you telling me that I will become ruined the way I live when generations have passed before me living the same way? He says all this to them because they turn him to guidance of Allah saying, your future will be ruined if you do not commit to working for peace, progress and prosperity of mankind. Surely the outcome for actions of people as promised by Allah is true. But he replies, all this is nothing but mere tales of the ancients.

There are people in human society who think it is their life so they can do what they like, however if all people thought like this the world will become an uncontrollable jungle full of all kinds of tragedies for mankind. It is true that people are individuals but it is also true they did not arrive in this world by themselves nor they raised themselves. Others played a big part in all this and that is why each and every human being owes everything to God and humanity. So the only way one could behave is the way it benefits humanity and himself. There is no such thing as total freedom for anyone in this world. So it is better if people learn their limits and do things within those set community limits.

18] Such were the people about whom Our forewarnings proved true in nations before them from among the ruling elites and the masses. They were surely a people who failed to live their lives successfully.

19] That is how all are assigned positions for which they are fit according to their works and their works result in full outcomes so that no loss is inflicted upon them as a people.

These like verses talk about set-up of universe and humanity so that people live in such a way that all work in a complementary way so that all results add up and take mankind forward instead of people working on basis of rivalries whereby works by some cancel works by others. This is why the Quran keeps repeating things to drive the point home. Rivalry leads to divisions and animosities and hatred and wars whereby works by some people are destroyed by others and that holds humanity back from progress or at least slows it down. On the other hand unity and working together in a coordinated way complements and adds together speeding up human progress and prosperity. This why Islam based upon the Quran is all about human brotherhood.

20] On the day when those who oppose Our guidance will end up in fire of hatred they will be asked, where are good things that you had earlier in your life at the expense of others that you took pleasure in? Today you will face the consequences of those actions of yours which you took to try to become dominant in the land by undermining others without any justification that is how you caused fractures in human community.

21] Tell them story of Aad, brethren of Hood. At the time he warned his people against divisions in the community and there came warners before him and after him saying, do not live by rule of any other than Allah. I am worried that if you did that then time will come when grave painful suffering will befall you as a result of doing that.

22] They replied, have you come to turn us away from our rulers? Bring us the torment that you are telling us about if you speak the truth.

23] Hood said, the responsibility to let mankind know about it rests with Allah, so I am conveying the message with which I am sent, however I can see that you are a people who are not bothered with learning about things.

24] In due course when they saw it coming in form of a crowd towards their valleys they said, this crowd will bring us some relief from famine. No, that is what you were hurrying for, a storm of people wherein is painful suffering for you.

When divine messengers warned people against the way they used to live as masters and slaves, people laughed it off but in time things got from bad to worse and one group of people set off against the other and all troublemakers ended up destroyed as a result. Before their destruction they never thought they could meet such an end. This is why people of today need to learn from such lessons that things can suddenly turn bad, so bad that humanity could end up in terrible situations. People who keep fighting each other leave themselves no time to pay attention to natural world and its behaviour and when things happen in natural world many a time humans become victims of nature. If they did not fight each other they could have worked to know their world better and deal with it in a better way but humans are humans and some of them never learn. Even their creator ends up calling them worse than animals. Such worse creatures that even their creator says world is better without such creatures in human forms.

25] It is going to destroy everything in its way as it was foretold by its Master. Consequently by the morning, there was nothing to be seen except the ruins of their dwellings. That is how Our set-up systems and laws make such people face results of their actions as inflict harm and destruction on others due to their criminal behaviour.

26] Behold! We had provided those people much better places to live in than We have provided you people and endowed them with the faculties of hearing and seeing as well as making sense of things. However their faculties of hearing and sight and intelligence availed them not a bit since they opposed the goals and guidelines of Allah, so they became totally overwhelmed by that at which they used to laugh.

27] We found destroying themselves the towns which once flourished around you despite Our sending of revelations to them so that they turn to way of life that was proper.

28] But why did those whom they took for rulers other than Allah to get them closer to Allah not help them? Instead they left them in lurch. That is the reality of their falsehood they spread against Allah through their inventions.

Just as today rulers in the past also used all within their control to derail divine message using their sword power, their wealth power and their conspiracies through inventing religions by putting in place priesthood and mullahs. Confused people when turn mad all becomes destroyed and it does not take very long before the world becomes full of confused people because of all the machinery at disposal of rulers of the time. Today people who really have wealth power in their hands use politicians and mullahs and media to spread their influence throughout the world. If this use and abuse continues then within a generation or two results will be out for us all to see with our own eyes. So it will be better that people put a stop to use and abuse of each other and think of ways to improve things for humanity. The Quran can be of great help if people turn to it as they should.

29] Therefore tell them how We brought to you a group of strangers to listened to the Quran. At the time when they arrived in its presence they said to each other, listen to advice attentively. When the study completed they returned to their people as warners.

30] They said, O our people! We have adhered to a book that has been revealed after Moses which is confirming the truth that came before it and it guides to what is proper and to the way of life that is firmly founded.

31] O our people, respond to the one who is calling you towards guidance of Allah and commit to working for peace, progress and prosperity of mankind according to it so that Allah protects you from acting harmfully and destructively against each other thereby saves you from ending up in painful suffering.

32] Because any who does not respond to one calling towards guidance of Allah will neither be able to frustrate His plan in the world nor will he have anyone to protect from Him. Surely such people are in manifest error.

33] Why do they not observe things and learn that Allah Who created the heavens and the earth and was not wearied by their creation has the power to raise the nation that is dead back to life by inspiring it? After all He alone has set-up the measures to control the affairs about all things.

34] On the day when the opponents of guidance of Allah will face their self created fire of hatred they will be asked, is this not the reality you were warned about by Allah? Yes, it is as told by our Lord, they will answer. Then taste the painful suffering now as a result of your opposition to His guidance.

35] Therefore be steadfastly persistent in your given task O messenger just like Our determined messengers before you and be not in a hurry about educating them. On the day when they will see upheavals which they are promised if they do not change, their life they would have already lived so far will seem to them as if it was only for an hour of a day. The forewarning has been conveyed. So who will end up harmed and destroyed despite that other than the people who cause fractures in human community?











Surah 47 MUHAMMAD-The final messenger sent by Allah to deliver his last message to mankind for setting up a porper human community based on it.

This surah is named MUHAMMAD from root HAA, MEEM and DAAL. Meanings of this root have been explained already but for reminder it means glory, introduction, recognition, reputation that is worthy of recognition, sovereignty, praiseworthy etc etc.

This surah is named MUHAMMAD not because this surah has this word in it but because it is name of the final messenger of Allah who has been sent with final message to mankind so that people come together on that basis and form proper human community based upon the ideas told in the Quran. This surah details some information about the messenger, what he was told and what he faced and how he was told to deal with things as he progressed in his mission. He was warned that people will oppose him and the reasons because of which he will be opposed and how he should keep in his sight troublesome people and how he should deal with them so that he could set-up a proper human community. He is told that in the beginning he will have to give his mission all he has and as mission succeeds things will ease in due course. Some people will be easy to deal with but others quite hard so he should prepare himself well for all kinds of situations through proper planning and actions to be able to deal with them successfully. This surah shows what people who claim to be his follower will have to do to get his mission to succeed.

Proclaim! In the name of Allah, the provider of psychological, sociological and biological needs of mankind,

1] Those who struggle against way of life advised by Allah and those who make efforts to mislead mankind from the way of Allah, He will render their struggles fruitless.

Here the Quran declares mission of the prophet a success because all efforts and struggles by all opponents of the prophet will end up in failure. This shows the man chosen by Allah for his mission is fit for the job description. This verses also tells us two categories of people who will oppose the mission a)open opponents and b)conspirators. Open opponents are powerful chiefs and conspirators are two groups a)mullahs and b)wealthy people. All these categories work together to get what they want by using masses.

2] Not only that but those who will commit to working for peace, progress and prosperity of mankind and work hard to help humanity grow and prosper according to the message sent to Muhammad – because it is from their Creator and Sustainer based upon self evident realities- He will thereby help them remove their self created problems and improve their condition through their own hard work according to His guidance.

These like verses in the Quran tell us that Islam was not spread by attacking people with swords but by discussing things with people. That is because the idea of living in a particular way is very attractive and also it is argument and evidence based. So nothing could and nothing can stand in the way of people coming to Islam due to that. Islam as told in the Quran is not for baby minded people who never grow up and argue just for sake of argument. The only scholarly work that has not been done on the Quran is textual verification for getting rid of human copying errors in the copies of the Quran. One day when Muslims realise the importance of this work they may do it. This will get rid of the argument about different versions of the Quranic text by opponents of Islam. It is not an impossible task but surely difficult because it is matter of getting photocopies of the existing ancient copies of the Quran and verifying them by using a formula that can help recover original text that was left behind by the prophet without any human errors at all. Not paying much attention to this was may be ok in the past because copies were made by hands but now that computing systems are available the originality of the Quranic text could from now on be kept intact. For this task a couple of HUFFAAZ of the Quran, a couple of language experts on the Quranic text and some experts on ancient writing styles known as RASMUL KHAT experts and a few experts on contextual context of the Quran are needed. If any such group could come together or could be brought together by some individual or government it will be a very good thing to do. I do not think it is difficult for such people to give us proper Quranic text within a short period of time which should then be used as standard text free of any printing and copying errors. Muslims are doing all sorts of things in the name of Islam but if anything this is something that must be done. Therefore some people should undertake this task. An introduction should be attached to those new copies of the Quran explaining how the task was carried out and completed just to put minds of people at rest how the original Quranic text was recovered. It is not difficult to restore Quran to its original form with help of ancient copies for verification. By the way those errors I am talking about have little bearing on message of the Quran but it is a task that should be carried out because this will remove the confusion in minds of people argue about it. They could be then referred to that sort of work to study the thing for themselves and be convinced that we still have original Quranic text 100%. So long as we have the proper way to recover original text, it means we have the original and if we produce one then this issue no longer matters. The while we do not have it although we can do it is a problem as seen by none experts. It is like we have all the components and expertise to make a perfect ship but we are not bothered with making one and meanwhile keep using the ones not so perfect ones. So if one asks us, have you got a perfect ship? We say, we can make one because we have everything we need for it to do that but no we have not done it yet. This leaves room for doubt for those who cannot know we are telling them the truth or just making up things. So why keep ourselves in this kind of situation? There is only and only one version of the Quranic text and all the rest are errors and no one bothered to solve this problem.

3] This is to happen because the opponents of His guidance follow falsehood that is not consistent with realities of real world therefore leads to divisions thereby troubles and destruction, while those who commit to working for peace, progress and prosperity of mankind follow the advice from their Creator and Sustainer because it is consistent with self evident realities in the world that leads to brotherhood thereby to solutions of their self created problems. This is how Allah explains for mankind things through reason based exemplary lessons.

4] Therefore when you face the opponents of the way of life advised by Allah for the benefit of humanity in the battlefield who wage open war on you by driving you out of your homes keep striking at the very roots of their heads till you have defeated them completely then take them as prisoners of war and bind them firmly. After the danger of war is over you should release prisoner of war with or without ransom as a favour to them. Thus is Our law for you in case of wars. Had Allah planned He could have granted them victory over you but He planned to put you the mankind through struggle so that some of you keep others in check. So hard works of those who are fought against for supporting the cause of Allah will never be without beneficial results for mankind.

5] As for those who survive the battle soon He will guide them to do things to improve their condition of existence

6] and that is how He will enter them in a blissful kingdom which He has promised them.

7] O you who claim to be committed to working for peace, progress and prosperity of mankind, if you will help each other to establish the way of life advised by Allah in the world then He too will help you through each other to establish you firmly in the world.

8] As for the opponents of advised way of life by Allah, they are bound to self destruction because He sees their actions taking them in that direction.

9] All this because they hate the revelations of Allah and they are enemies of humanity therefore He renders their thoughts and actions fruitless.

10] Have they not travelled through the world and seen what was the end of those who have gone before them? Allah let them destroy themselves utterly and a similar fate awaits these enemies of humanity if they do not learn sense in time.

11] This is because guidance from Allah is protector of those who commit to working for peace, progress and prosperity of mankind while opponents of His guidance have nothing to protect them.

12] Surely Allah will admit those who commit to working for peace, progress and prosperity of mankind such as take actions to help humanity grow and prosper to kingdoms throughout which livelihood flows like rivers. As for those who oppose guidance of Allah, their elite enjoys good things the life has to offer so they eat like animals having no sense of caring for others and sharing things with others therefore fire of hatred among themselves is their destination to remain in.

13] Do these people not realise that how many cities which were mightier than your city which has driven you out We have seen destroy themselves due to their opposition to Our guidance, this why there was no one to save them?

14] Can he who follows the evidence based guidance from his Master be compared to him who is misled by his own harmful and destructive ambitions and desires whose harmful and destructive works against mankind seem beneficial for himself?

These verses are making a very important point about people and guidance. A people who are guided by Allah live for the benefit of mankind but a people who are not guided live for themselves ie for personal gains at the expense of human community. So a Muslim can only be a person who works for the benefit of humanity and any person who works for himself to make gains at the expense of human community is a nonMuslim. A person who declares commitment to one thing and does another is either ignorant or hypocrite. Ummah needs to assess for itself what it is doing in light of these like Quranic verses. Each Muslim declares that as far as s/he is concerned Allah alone is ruler of this kingdom and so one is binds oneself to living by his rule and law alone. However all Muslim states today are based on ruling systems other than that told by the Quran. All this because people have given up study of the Quran in favour of mullahs who have taken over interpretation of the Quranic message and they have distorted it and instead of message of the Quran have spread their own self invented beliefs which helped separate Quran from its purpose for revelation ie the Quran was sent so that people rule the world according to it as the ultimate authority but instead the Quran is put aside and people are ruling the world as they please. There are clear commandments in the Quran that those who do not rule by the book from Allah are KAAFIR or are MUSHRIK ie they have nothing to do with Quran and Islam. So ummah needs to wake up and see where it stands. Is ummah today an Islamic ummah or just another nonMuslim group of people in light of the Quranic injunctions? Are mullahs supporters of the Quran or its opposers?

15] The description of a blissful kingdom that is advised for those who are consistent with each other according to Our guidance is, therein should be rivers of water that never stops flowing and rivers of milk that never loses its attraction as well as rivers of wine tasty for drinkers and rivers of honey pure and clear. In there they should have all kinds of beneficial fruits secured according to guidance of their Creator and Sustainer. Can such people then be like those who dwell in fire of mutual hatred among themselves so they deliver to each other hateful talk that cuts through their very foundation they base themselves upon?

In these verses the main point made is that when people work as individuals doing their own things based on rivalries and animosities then such a population cannot prosper much because in such a population people hold each other back from making progress at a full speed and becoming prosperous. On the other hand if people stick together sensibly and follow a program then they can leave rest of people behind. The Quran then explains what kind of kingdoms those who accept its message should bring about so that rest of the world follows their example and humanity becomes free of all sorts of worries and then concentrates on travelling throughout the universe to see what Allah has created and how great is all this universe. All this so that man realises how great his creator is, for which Allah created mankind.

Things mentioned in the Quran as description of blissful kingdoms are symbolic. For example, rivers of flowing water also means nonstop production and distribution of livelihood for the community within the kingdom. Rivers of milk also means the pure opinions people hold about each other which keep them together as a community. Rivers of wine also means fountains of knowledge that community keeps learning and teaching each other so that the kingdom keeps going from strength to strength instead of falling apart after a while due to lack of knowledge needed to keep the blissful kingdom going. Likewise rivers of honey also means sweet conversation people have with each other. Unless people have the capacity told in the Quran they can never bring about the kingdom that is based upon divine guidance. On the other hand people who do not tie themselves into a beautiful brotherhood will always end up divided due to rivalries and animosities so fires of hatred will always ignite between them therefore wars will never stop between them. So it is up to mankind themselves what they choose for themselves, the way to peace or the way to wars.

16] Some of these people do listen to you but no sooner do they leave your presence then they ask those endowed with knowledge, what was he was talking about just now? Such are the people in whose very person Allah finds their remaining ignorant as a barrier against understanding things and that is why they follow their own harmful and destructive ambitions and desires.

This verse tells us why some people accept and others do not accept divine guidance because they choose to remain ignorant and ignorance becomes a barrier which stops them from learning and understanding things therefore they remain as they are ie divine guidance does not benefit them because it needs not only working brains but brains that are trained in getting information about things and making sense of it.

17] As for those who have acquired capability of understanding His guidance, Allah keeps increasing amount of guidance for them that is how He enables them to become consistent with His guidance and each other to free themselves from their self created troubles in due course.

18] By keeping themselves ignorant, are the opponents of guidance of Allah and proper human community waiting for the period of upheavals to overtake them all of a sudden? Are they not aware that its signs have already come so when it will actually overtake them, what chance will they have to benefit by this admonition?

When a population lives by a way of life that lands it into uprising and upheavals, signs begin to appear within a short period of time of several generations. It is always possible to pull back from destruction up to a time after signs begin to appear but after that nothing saves a people from self destruction. A people who live like animals, die like animals unless they change their mindsets, attitudes and behaviours within a given time period. It is like you are up on a tree and start cutting the branch you are standing upon. So long as you realise your mistake and stop before falling down of the branch, you can save yourself but once the final blow is struck to cut the branch you are going to come down with the branch.

19] So let mankind know O messenger that none has the right to rule this world other than Allah so on basis of His guidance alone seek blissful kingdom for protection of yourself as well as the men and the women that have committed to working for peace, progress and prosperity of mankind against any of your vulnerabilities, that is how Allah makes obvious for you your plan of actions and your goals.

This verse is about letting people know that Allah is the only ruler of this kingdom and only his guidance is valid to go by for mankind. So people should seek protection thereby in form of getting support of people for bringing about the blissful kingdom as explained by Allah wherein they could live in peace by taking care of all their vulnerabilities and short comings. Bringing about a peaceful state, running it successfully and securing it is not an easy task at all. Not only that when people start a movement others become concerned and if their vested interests come under danger then they rise to protect them any way they can. This leads to spying on people and causing troubles in the movements through agents so that the movement fails. Same thing happens when messengers of Allah go through this process. It is interest of human community against interest of a few individuals who have desire to be the rulers and masters of the masses.

20] Because of the saying of those who have committed themselves to working for peace, progress and prosperity of mankind, why is not a surah revealed regarding matters related to our security? However now that a Surah about setting up of rule of Allah has been sent wherein is lesson about dealing with issues of armed struggle, you will see those in whose hearts is a disease looking at you like the one who is going through process of death. But more fitting response for them

21] was to be consistent with Our guidance and to say and do what was beneficial for the community, that would have shown their sense and courage about this matter because they could have proven themselves truly committed to the cause and that would have been beneficial for them.

22] Now that you have shown this response what can be expected of you if you are put in place of responsibility other than to inflict harm and destruction upon people in the kingdom by violating the set rights of people?

23] Such are the people whom Allah has found far away from benefiting from His blissful program as if they are deaf and blind due to lack of sight.

24] Why do they not ponder over what the Quranhas to say? Have they placed locks upon their brains?

This is a situation like a child who locks himself in a room and starts crying and complaining. People should grow up and show some sense.

25] So those who turn back to their old ways after the guidance has been made clear to them they do so only because they are seduced by harmful and destructive leadership that gives them false hopes.

26] That is why they said to those who showed aversion to what Allah has revealed, we will assist you in some matters but Allah makes their motives obvious in due course through their own actions.

27] But what will they do when the missionaries of Allah come to pay them back in full what they have done, smashing their objectives and defeating their supporters?

28] That will happen to them because they follow the way that is invitation to moving away from the path of Allah that leads mankind to blissful and dignified life, therefore He finds their works void of any benefits for mankind.

29] Do those in whose hearts is a disease of domination others by undermining them think that Allah will not bring to light through their actions in due course their conspiracies?

30] Behold! If that is Our plan, We will make them obvious to you in due course so that you recognize them due to their characteristics, that is why you will surely recognise them by tone of their speech. That is how Allah exposes them to you through their own actions.

31] Moreover We will put you through long and hard struggle until We make obvious to mankind the steadfast and consistently persistent among you, that is how We will make known your struggle widely.

32] Those who oppose guidance of Allah and those who put people on the wrong track by blocking advised way of life by Allah thereby resist mission of the messenger after the guidance from Allah has been made obvious to them will in no way harm plan of Allah, instead their such actions will only prove obstruction for themselves.

The Quran in verses like these points out inventers of religions and how they use them to obstruct the way to DEEN of Allah in the name of Allah by confusing people between religion and way of life. This is how Quran points out works of mullahs. It calls them people who obstruct way of Allah. It is like some one who is standing at the gate and as people try to enter the gate he says go that way instead. They argued against Moses and Jesus before anyone else. They proved enemies from within.

33] O you who claim to be committed to working for peace, progress and prosperity of mankind, be consistent with program of Allah as well as be consistent with His messenger so that your hard works do not come to nothing.

This like verses in the Quran point out a very important fact and that is consistency throughout for making the mission of Allah successful. If guidance of Allah and his messengers and people who claim to follow them are all not one for this mission then mission cannot succeed and odd efforts by odd people therefore go to waste due to failure of set mission, task or goal.

34] As for those who oppose guidance of Allah and those who obstruct the way of Allah then they are defeated yet remain opposed to living according to guidance of Allah then guidance of Allah cannot provide them with life of security.

The Quran here explains that there is no compulsion from God for people to come into Islam but because it is the way humanity should be living otherwise mankind cannot avoid divisions within population and if they divide then self interest based groups cannot be avoided therefore consequences for divisions cannot be avoided. So instead of stick reason is used to convince people towards Islamic way of life. This is not Islam of mullahs the Quran is talking about. Mullahs never even thought of exploring the universe and if anyone ever did anything in that direction they always denied the achievements of humanity. The Quran is full of verses telling mankind about lesson in all of the creations which people should learn by observation and experimentation and go beyond that by showing people have the ability to be creative because that what Allah created them for. Mullahs call to a different Islam and true missionaries call to a different Islam and people should realise that.

35] Therefore you should not show slackness in learning and doing things by relying on idleness because you will surely gain the upper hand. So long as you are supported by guidance of Allah there is no way that He will let your hard works go to waste.

36] The life in this world is made troublesome for some and amusement for others by human kind but not so if you commit to working for peace, progress and prosperity of mankind and be consistent with guidance of Allah and mankind because then His set-up systems and laws deliver you faithful outcome of your proper actions where after you are not deprived of your due possessions.

37] If the messenger were to demand all of your possessions for personal gains like others and pressed you hard for it then you too would grow stingy like others but He wants to bring out of you all of your malice and turn you into a proper human community that lives for each other.

38] So that you become such a people who call for contributions by all in the way of Allah for the benefit of mankind because some among you are stingy. However any who remains stingy by not using what he can to help others, he is only causing loss his human community. Such people should realise that Allah is self sufficient and it is you the mankind who depend upon Him for fulfilment of your needs. Should you turn away from His advised way of living then He will let others replace you who will not be full of malice against their own kind like you.

Finally, it is said that you either follow the guidance and make this world a better place or you will not live for long due to the way you choose to live by, so other people will soon replace you ie generations and nations come and go but only those people live long who know how to live more successfully.











Surah 48 AL-FATH- Opening of the door to creation of blissful kingdom for the mankind

This surah is named AL-FATAH from root FAA, TAA and HAA. This is same root as surah1 AL-FAATIHA. It means opening and victory etc etc.

This surah is named AL-FATH because the Quran talks about creation of a state in the world that is based upon guidance from Allah so that people could have a blissful and dignified life in there. It is because till people become free of worries and regrets they cannot fully concentrate on other objectives wholeheartedly. A hungry man cannot think of anything else other than food and a thirsty man cannot think of anything other than something to drink. In order to get things man is cutting throat of another man due to his stupidity so guidance of Allah opens the door for humanity to look at things in another way that could take mankind to a higher level of thinking and doing things. So once people become free of such problems by organising and regulating themselves sensibly as told then they can concentrate on rest of things in the universe they need to do.

Proclaim! In the name of Allah, the provider of psychological, sociological and biological needs of mankind,

1] Surely We have opened for success of your mission a highway that is manifest,

2] so that guidance of Allah secures you from your vulnerabilities from the front as well as from the back so that He fulfils His blissful and dignifying program through you by guiding you to the way of life that is firmly founded

3] so that thereby Allah assists you with His mighty support.

4] It is He alone who brought satisfaction to minds of those who are committed to working for peace, progress and prosperity of mankind in order to add confidence in their trust in mission based brotherhood. All this was possible because to Allah alone belong forces of the heavens and the earth and rule of Allah is based on knowledge.

5] He has guided you to do as you have done, so that He admits the leaders and the communities who are committed to working for peace, progress and prosperity of mankind into blissful kingdoms wherein flow things of need like rivers and that is how He removes from them harmful and destructive actions against each other and that is a great achievement in the sight of Allah.

6] And so that He leaves leaders and parties of hypocrites and leaders and parties of those who take for rulers other than Allah to suffer the painful suffering because they harbour harmful and destructive thoughts against mission of Allah. Upon them will befall the harm and destruction they plot because they are distancing themselves from the blissful program of Allah and that is how He lets them prepare for themselves life of painful suffering which is a debasing goal to have.

7] Because to Allah alone belong forces of the heavens and the earth and Allah is mighty wise ruler of the universe.

8] O messenger, We have sent you on a mission to put before mankind the evidence based guidance We have revealed to you thereby give good news of unity, peace, progress and prosperity to those who commit to following Our guidance and follow it as well as to deliver the bad news to those who ignore and oppose it that they will end up in painful suffering.

9] Therefore O people, you should commit to working for peace, progress and prosperity of humanity according to guidance of Allah along with His messenger and support him by giving due importance to what he puts before you. Moreover you should work day and night to manifest glory of rule of Allah in the land for the betterment of mankind.

10] Surely those who agree with your mission they are agreeing with advice of Allah therefore responsibility to manifest sovereignty of Allah in the world rests upon them so any who fails to fulfil his this responsibility will put himself and his kind on the road to painful suffering as a consequence. However, any people who will fulfil their this responsibility for manifesting glory of rule by Allah will soon be rewarded with great outcome in form of blissful kingdom.

11] The Bedouin Arabs who held back themselves from joining you in acting for the mission will soon say to you, our things and our families kept us occupied but do seek secure life for us as well by bringing about the blissful kingdom. They will say with their tongues what is not in their hearts. Tell them, who can manage anything for you when it comes to planning and set-up of Allah because it depends upon yourselves to benefit according to plan of Allah or end up in harm. However be aware that Allah is aware of whatever you ought to be doing.

12] Yet instead of acting upon guidance of Allah and joining others already struggling for the mission you people thought that the Messenger and those who are committed to working for peace, progress and prosperity of mankind will never come back to their families and this thought gave pleasure to your hearts. You conceived such harmful and destructive thoughts therefore you people are a lost cause.

13] Remember always! Any party that does not commit to working for peace, progress and prosperity of mankind by its actions according to guidance of Allah along with messenger Our plan and set-up systems and laws will land such people in painful suffering as an outcome of their own actions.

14] Be aware O mankind that the sovereignty of the kingdom of the heavens and the earth belongs to Allah alone. He secures those who work according to His guidance and leaves those to suffer who ignore working according to His guidance. That is how Allah makes obvious for mankind that He protect humanity through His blissful and dignifying program.

15] When you set out to take steps for growth and development of proper human community those who hold back themselves from learning things properly say, let us come with you. They desire to change the way Allah has advised you to do things. Tell them clearly that you cannot come with us because that is what Allah has said already. But their response is, rather you are jealous of us because we will be more successful than you. The fact is, it is a question of who is most suitable for the mission at any given time and place and not a matter for envy but little do they understand such simple things.

16] Regardless tell the Bedouin Arabs who held themselves back from acting for the mission earlier that if you will prepare yourselves well then soon you will be called upon to strive for the mission against a mighty people then you may end up in a fight with them or they may accept working for the mission of peace. At that time if you will prove consistent by your actions with what you say then Allah will reward you with beautiful life but if you will prove yourselves inconsistent like you did previously then He will leave you to lead yourselves into life of painful suffering.

17] There is no blame on the blind, the lame, and the sick if they stay behind when you go forth for the mission. Any such people that are consistent with guidance of Allah and His messenger will be admitted to blissful kingdoms wherein things of need will flow like rivers, but any that turn away will be left to lead themselves into life of painful suffering.

18] Allah surely approves act of those who are committed to working for peace, progress and prosperity of mankind when they agreed with you under the constitution that is how what is in their hearts is made obvious therefore came upon them satisfaction and that is how soon He will open the doors for them widely to spread the message,

19] and this is how there will come about for them many things to grab that help growth and development of a proper human community because Allah is mighty wise ruler of the kingdom of the universe.

20] Allah has promised you many things that help growth and development of a proper human community for you to get your hands on so that thereby He hastens your progress and prosperity and restrains the hands of people who oppose your mission. All this so that it serves as a lesson for those who are committed to working for peace, progress and prosperity of mankind so that He guides you to the way of life that is firmly founded.

21] Besides what you can get your hands on just now He also promises you other beneficial things which are not yet within your reach but Allah will bring them within your reach also because Allah has set-up systems and laws to govern all affairs of everything.

22] Even if the opponents of Our advised way of life had fought with you they would have been put to flight by you because they would not have found any protector or supporter.

23] Such has been the way of Allah in the past for dealing with such people and you will find no change in the practice of Allah.

24] It is He Who has restrained their hands from you and your hands from them due to foundation that is capable of providing mankind the basis to build themselves upon as a proper human community after He had helped you success against them because Allah understands things that you should be doing for the good of each other.

Word MAKKAH is from root MEEM, KAAF and KAAF. Concrete meaning of this root is something that absorbs or attracts or sucks up the last drop of milk, water or blood etc. A city in Saudi Arabia, a place that is void of greenery or agriculture eg desert land where nothing grows due to lack of water etc. A place where nobody lives, a place that can act as a solid foundation for erecting building upon. A place wherein gather people, a meeting place etc etc.

Word AZFARA is from root ZWAA, FAA and RAA. Concrete meaning of this root is to get through something intact. To overcome, triumph, win victory, be victorious. To be able to convince the opponent through strength of arms or words or both etc etc.

25] They are the ones who opposed Our guidance and obstructed you from bringing about the Sacred Kingdom thus they tried to prevent Our guidance from fulfilling its intended purpose. Had there not been leaders and communities who committed themselves to working for peace, progress and prosperity of mankind whom you could have undermined due to being unaware about them, Allah would have allowed you to fight but He held back your hands so that He admits in the group that follows His blissful program those who choose to work for it. Had they isolated themselves from working for blissful program then We would have left such people to go through painful suffering as covered up Our guidance.

Words MASJID AL-HARAAM have been explained already, a place wherein are implemented commandments of Allah to properly fulfil needs and wants of people. In the Quranic concept masjid is not a place of worship but a place wherefrom administration of the kingdom carries out its duties to the people ie a government office. It means divine kingdom because the land under control of such an administration is divine kingdom due to implementation of divine program, constitution and laws. Masjid is a place wherein people submit to laws of Allah or abide by his laws. This is not place of worship because the Quran does not present any such God who needs people to worship him. Worship concept is related to idols and other visible things that people take for worship. People cannot worship Allah but only can obey his laws. Allah has given mankind laws for their own benefit so that mankind could live properly and grow mentally and physically. So that the reason why God created all this world could become fulfilled. The reason is recognition of the fact that Allah is truly a great creator through creative ability of humanity itself. Humans cannot express their creative abilities till they use their heads for thinking and bodies for doing things that express their hidden abilities. There is no sense in banging one’s head on the floor in order to please the creator. It looks terrible when people bang their heads on the floor and wave their behinds in the air. A position Allah does not like because he did not create man to humiliate him himself. He did not even animals for this purpose. Everything in the universe is created to serve a purpose and that is not worship of Allah but to do as told for fulfilling the task set out for it by Allah. Sun is created to give light and heat, not to bang its head anywhere. No chicken bangs its head on the floor. Not even sheep do that. Only man does silly things and humiliates himself before all things when Allah created him to rise above all things in the universe. How sensible it is to worship and to worship everything? If anything all things ought to worship man instead of man worshiping them because mankind is able to use them at will. It is therefore very important for man to grow in knowledge to realise that Allah has created everything for him to benefit from and that he has set a different purpose for mankind than other things ie recognition of Allah through presence of his will and his creativity. The Quranic teaching therefore is anti religion and anti mullaism and anti politics based upon use and abuse of mankind. The Quran wants mankind to recognise true rights of each other and true responsibilities towards each other. Unless people do that there is no chance of anyone bringing about divine kingdom.

26] While the opponents of Our mission harboured in their selves the sense of domination over each other by undermining each other as they used to do in time of ignorance, Allah brought satisfaction to His messenger and those who committed to working for peace, progress and prosperity of mankind and that is how He convinced them to adhere to His word that teaches consistency to mankind and that is how they proved they were worthy of receiving this guidance and deserved it because Allah has set-up systems and laws to govern all affairs of all things.

The Quran again and again tells people give up sense of dominating each other and thereby undermining each other. Come together and work for higher goals than inflating one’s ego by rubbing each other’s noses. Give up such mentality and be a brotherhood of humanity caring and sharing things. In other words open the doors to each other not shut them.

27] Surely Allah has vindicated vision of His messenger by helping him to turn it into a reality. That is why he will be able to bring about the advised kingdom as Allah has planned peacefully with people gathering around their group leaders, properly organised and regulated having nothing to worry about. That is how He makes obvious to you things about which you were not aware and that is how He will open other doors for you in near future to succeed.

28] Because it is He who has sent His messenger with guidance for mankind for the way of life that is consistent with reality so that He make it obvious to mankind that it is far more beneficial for them than all other ways of life that they have adopted for themselves and sufficient is this testimony of Allah for that purpose.

29] Muhammad is messenger of Allah and those with him stand rock solid against attacks of those who oppose his mission but they are compassionately soft for each other. When you come across them you will find them moulding themselves in accordance to guidance of Allah by submitting to it, seeking bounties of Allah according to His guidance. The signs of their submission to guidance of Allah are reflected by their personalities. This is their description in the Torah and their description in the Injeel. They are like the seed which puts forth its sprout then strengthens it and then becomes thick and stands firmly on its stem. Delighting the sowers of the seed so that thereby Allah stimulates those who oppose His guidance into thinking and accepting His guidance. Because promise is made by Allah to those who commit to working for peace, progress and prosperity of mankind who take actions to help humanity grow and prosper that for such of them is secure existence as a great outcome of their own actions.








Surah 49 AL-HUJURAAT–Social, political and economic systems, structures, procedures and practices

This surah is named AL-HUJURAAT from root HAA, JEEM and RAA. This root is already explained but just to remind, it means stone, chamber, room, house, limitation, boundary, inhibition, obstruction, prohibition, structure, procedure, practice, intelligence, cleverness etc etc.

This surah is named AL-HUJURAAT because the Quran talks about gathering of people to discuss things concerning the community in an organised and regulated way to reach collective decisions and to act upon them to get results. It talks about handling situations and things sensibly instead of creating chaos and confusion in community. It is explained that it is up to Allah to explain his creation and revelation and up to people to learn things sensibly and act upon them for their own good. It is also made clear that if any people come to adopt Islamic way of life it is not because they are doing so only for others as a favour but because it is going to benefit them as well. It is made absolutely clear that there is no Islam if people have no understanding of the message and then commitment to actualising it. Blind faith has no place in Islam is made quite clear in this surah. So mullaism and its following has nothing to do with Islam nor ways of life adopted by ruling elites around the world. Quranic Islam is anti master slave divide, mindset, attitude and behaviour. So people who think they have divine sanction to rule people should review their stance and change before things are changed by others all around them. Islam is all about committing to working for turning human population into a working brotherhood based upon divine guidance.

People are strictly forbidden to create divisions but obligated to bring people together on basis of divine guidance in form of the Quran. The context of revelation is to bring together the warring factions instead of creating wars by dividing people in the name of the Quran. A clear proof that Islam is way of life that lands humanity in peace and harmony and thereby progress and prosperity. So any nonsense by mullahs and their fake opponents who claim Islam means war should be confronted with context of the Quranic text. Stupidity of mullahs and ignorant molvies who follow them blindly should not be allowed to carry on rather scholars of deen of Islam must confront such elements if ummah is to get out of ditch mullahs have landed it in. Time for ummah to study the Quran itself instead of learning it of mullahs and ignorant molvies. Only if ummah educates itself that it can deliver message of the Quran to rest of educated world properly to help them see Islam in its proper context and perspective. It will then not take very long before we truly have one world, the way it should be.

The problem as I see it is that some of the people are not aware of the fact that the Quranic words have other meanings as well than the ones used by translators of the Quran. The fact that even the very same translator uses different meanings of the very same words in different places within his Quranic translation is a clear proof that words do have other meanings. The other problem is that some people are not willing to accept the fact that the Quranic text does have a definite context. No matter what we need to realise that without context you cannot understand any piece of text let alone a book. Yet another problem is that people are not willing to accept the fact that the Quran is not a religious holy book for worship of God instead it is all about human community set-up, organisation and regulation for growth and prosperity of mankind.

Another problem is that mullahs keep telling us there are verses in the Quran that are about waging wars against infidels. I do not say that fighting verses are not in the Quran but my point is that there is a context to all this. The context is that there is a permanent struggle between people regardless of the Quran. This struggle is all about who controls land and resources in the world and means of production and distribution. Only a stupid person can deny this fact. The fact is, this struggle was there long before the revelation of the Quran so the Quran is not the initiator of this struggle and strife between people. The Quran was sent to end the wars between humanity for land and resources as well as means of production and distribution. It sets mankind some goals and guidelines in order to do that as I have explained already. If we organise as advised by the Quran and regulate our human community the way the Quran puts forth then all of us can live a reasonable life. Can any of us put forth any terms and conditions better than the Quran to create peace and unity or harmony between humanity? If we cannot and no one has for last 1400 plus years then we will be better off trying what the Quran says. It is because we have seen it ourselves and history is also our witness what human beings have been putting each other through.

Now if we look at war verses in the Quran, it is only telling us that we must struggle against those who do not accept Quranic goals and guidelines or terms and conditions for peace and unity between people for their own progress and prosperity. The question is, what is wrong with that if any of us knows what the goals and guidelines of the Quran are? Will you rather let criminal elements among us human beings have their way with humanity? Antisocial elements must be controlled even if we have to kill a few so that humanity could live in peace. After all what is there outside the peace treaty that is offered to mankind by the Quran? Romans and Persians were fighting each other long before Quran was sent by Allah. World did not live by worthwhile peace treaty based on terms and conditions as told in the Quran. So the Quran provided us human being a way out of wars and destructions by getting rid of warmongering elements that fought for their domination over others. If we really want to live in peace and harmony and want to do useful things with our lives then we have no choice but to accept Quranic advice or the alternative is keep on fighting for ever for our domination over each other and keep suffering the consequences, each time worse than before. Has world ever succeeded that way? No. Will it ever succeed that way? No. Then are we people mad because we are keep going the same way which only leads to painful suffering, death and destruction and chaos and confusion? This is what the Quran calls living in regrets and worries all the time. People who will live by way of life told in the Quran therefore will have no worries and anxieties and panic attacks. Find out what we are doing to each other whereby so many people are having nervous break downs and near half of human population is living on anti depressants.

So people must give themselves time to think things through and they will come to see that the Quran is not a book that makes people foolish. It is a book that makes people very sensible therefore it is a very useful book, so useful that we cannot afford to throw it away and live without it. The day we humans understand the Quran properly that is the day we will come to realise what was missing in our thoughts and in our lives. Of course the Quran based life is very demanding because stupid people cannot actualise it to start with. Quran requires or rather demands thinking minds and active bodies because turning this world into a paradise is not an easy thing to do.

People will have to work hard day and night in order to educate each other and plan things and do them as a family. As I explained already Islam is all about proper management of human population and available resources so that mankind have a great life worth living. This is what the Quran calls life in paradise and on the contrary fighting each other over things like dogs is life in hell. My work may help people look for things in the right direction and each person can only benefit as much as the effort one puts into things. You will not find me inviting you into blind faith. Quran does not need stupid following but a following that can actualise its plan for humanity. All this needs convinced minds that work for it because they believe in themselves and the program because they think they can make it work.

Proclaim! In the name of Allah, the provider of psychological, sociological and biological needs of mankind,

1] O you who claim to be committed to working for peace, progress and prosperity of mankind, proceed not from here on without the constitution of Allah and His messenger so be consistent with guidance of Allah as well as each other. Surely Allah observes all things and makes them obvious for you the people to understand, plan and do.

2] O you who claim to be committed to working for peace, progress and prosperity of mankind, consider not your voices above that of the voice of the messenger nor raise your voices in his presence as you address each other outside the assembly in case your plans for actions come to nothing due to your unawareness of things being discussed for decisions.

3] Those who keep their discussions and decisions according to the given framework of messenger of Allah such are the ones whose minds Allah has opened due to revelation for consistency with His guidance and each other so they work very hard for the well being of each other therefore they will surely end up in blissful and dignified secure existence which will be a great outcome of their own actions.

4] As to those who carry on working outside the systems, structures, procedures and practices you the messenger set up, most of them hardly use their sense to understand things properly.

5] If only they had worked hard consistently till you had reached them, that would have benefited them because Allah secures people by educating them through His blissful program.

6] O you who claim to be committed to working for peace, progress and prosperity of mankind if at any time any trouble making person comes to you with some piece of information regarding a people or state then pass it on to your people of relevant department for investigation so that you as a state do not act on this information before its verification in case you harm some other people unwittingly and then regret what you have done.

7] So be aware of the fact that the messenger of Allah is sent among you to guide you through guidance from Allah but instead if he were to follow you rather than leading you then in most affairs you all will be in troubles because you lack information and its proper understanding about matters that need your decisions. That is how Allah endeared you and beautified it in your minds working for peace, progress and prosperity of mankind and made you abhor living by any other way of life that leads to divisions and animosities through suspicions due to misinformation and disinformation, leading you to mistrust and distrust thereby to inflicting harm and destruction upon each other and to be disloyal to each other and messenger of Allah as well as rule of Allah. All this because such are the people who are guided properly.

8] The blissful program from Allah leads to prosperity and freedom from all kinds of poverty and ills in human community. That is how Allah makes obvious His wisdom based rule for humanity to see.

9] However if at any time two parties from among those who claim to be working for peace, progress and prosperity of mankind fall into dispute and end up in fighting, take proper steps to remove causes of tension between them and restore peace between them on grounds of brotherhood, fairness and compassion. However if either of the parties fails to agree on proper terms and conditions and instead decides to continue the fight against the other then fight all of you together the party that has transgressed against program, constitution and law of Allah till it accepts rule of Allah and if it does turn to guidance of Allah then make peace between them with justice and be fair and compassionate, for Allah approves those who are fair and just with kindness.

10] Surely those who claim to be committed to working for peace, progress and prosperity of mankind are brothers to one another therefore make reconciliation between your brothers thus be consistent with program, constitution and law of Allah, so that Allah makes manifest for all to see His blissful and dignifying program for humanity actualised.

11] O you who claim to be committed to working for peace, progress and prosperity of mankind, let no nation conquer another nation to enslave it, it is possible that the nation being conquered is better than the one that conquers it so let no community or party among you overpower another party or community to enslave it because it is possible that community or party that is being overpowered is better than the one overpowers it, nor label one another by offensive names. It is very harmful and destructive thing to do to your human brotherhood and for the victims of such abuse to be called by a bad name particularly after the party has chosen to declare commitment to working for peace, progress and prosperity of mankind so those who do not hold themselves back from such a practice are the ones who do things to harm and destroy others and that is how they act against the interest of wider brotherhood of humanity.

Word YASKHAR is from root SEEN, KHAA and RAA. It has been explained already but just to remind, it means to laugh at something or to take control of something to make use of it or to humiliate etc etc.

12] O you who claim to be committed to working for peace, progress and prosperity of mankind, avoid greatly acting against each other merely on the basis of baseless thoughts because acting upon even some of the baseless thoughts could lead to harm and destruction of your brotherhood and for the same reason do not conspire against each other to inflict damage and destruction on each other. Would any of you be happy in harming and destroying your brother in humanity by taking away what he rightfully has? Surely you will abhor such an act if you really loved and cared about your brother, your family, your tribe, your fellow workers for peace and prosperity as well as larger human community because that is where all the benefits you have received came from for you. So be consistent with program, constitution and law of Allah in whose name you decide rights and responsibilities for each other and that is how Allah shows that He has turned to you the mankind with His blissful and dignifying program.

13] O mankind! We have surely evolved you from a male and a female and organised you into nations and tribes so that you become aware of rights and responsibilities of each other and fulfil your constitutional obligations to each other. Surely the most blissful and dignified person of you is the one who is most consistent with program, constitution and law of Allah for the growth and prosperity of mankind. Surely Allah will make all this evident in due course through results of your own actions showing clearly He is aware of all that you ought to be doing.

14] The people who do not yet know Our program, constitution and law say, we are committed to working for peace, progress and prosperity of mankind. Say, you are not yet committed to working for peace, progress and prosperity of mankind because you have not yet learned the purpose of Allah for creation and revelation and His program, constitution and guidelines for law that set out terms and conditions for commitment to working for peace and prosperity of mankind but you can declare your commitment that you have committed yourselves to learning about Islam because the proper concept of Islam has not yet entered your minds. Meanwhile if you prove to be consistent with guidance of Allah and each other as you become more and more aware of revelation through His messenger then Allah will not deny you the fruits of your course of actions because Allah protects mankind through His blissful program, constitution and law.

15] Surely the truly committed to working for peace, progress and prosperity of mankind are only those who claim to be committed to working for peace, progress and prosperity of humanity according to the program, constitution and law of Allah along with His messenger then never doubt the mission after properly understanding it and strive hard for its success with all they have putting even themselves on the line in order to establish the set goal of Allah for the benefit of mankind. Such are the ones who are really true to their claim of commitment to peace, progress and prosperity of mankind which they prove by their actions.

16] Say, think about which is really sensible thing to do, you people learning and following the way of life advised by Allah or you people telling Allah to accept your ways of life? Remember always! It is Allah who makes obvious for mankind in due course all that is in the heavens and all that is in the earth because He has proper information about all things and its proper understanding?

17] These people think they are doing you a big favour by declaring their commitment to learning Islam. Say to them, you have conferred upon me no big favour by committing to learning Islam rather it was Allah Who has conferred a huge favour upon you in guiding you towards commitment to peace, progress and prosperity of mankind if you are a people who have truly committed to working for peace, progress and prosperity of mankind.

18] Surely Allah makes obvious in due course the secrets of the heavens and the earth and so will He make manifest through your actions your commitment to working for peace, progress and prosperity of mankind that is why Allah made evident and is watching all that you ought to be doing.
