Surah 114 AL-NAAS–Blissful, dignified and secure existence of mankind is possible in this world as well as in hereafter only if they carry out program of Allah according to his provided guidelines for a constitution and its related laws for them as a proper human community in his kingdom. This surah is named AL-NAAS not because word naas is used in it but for its subject matter. It deals with all sorts of problems humanity faces and their solution. As one should know that the Quran is mainly about proper management of people and resources, means of production and distribution for satisfying needs of whole of mankind so that mankind could have peace between themselves so that they could cooperate and fully support each other for progress of humanity and help it prosper to such an extent that one day mankind could end up managing the whole of universe for their own well being and that way benefit from it. The Quran is not about mere survival of humanity but also about its blissful, dignified and secure existence as well as it is a program from God for humanity to carry out so that the purpose for which God created everything becomes fulfilled. This is why the Quran is a program with guidelines for a constitution and laws, all in one. The Quran tells people that Allah is sole rightful sovereign of this universe and the only one who has right to recommend a program with guidelines for a constitution and laws for his kingdom and its subjects including human beings. It is because people are born ignorant and it takes them a life time to learn things as much as they can through brain and senses by interacting with things in the universe so God sent his revelation to help humanity speed up things and bypass unnecessary painful suffering. However, as mankind interact with each other soon they find that not all of them are equally learned so those who become more aware of things try to take undue advantage of those who remain less aware of things. This creates divides between mankind because people behave worse than animals towards each other so revelation is given to mankind to explain how they should develop their mindset, attitude and behaviour in order to fulfil goals set by God for them according to his provided guidelines to begin with. Once the first step is fully achieved the next goal for mankind is to explore the universe and see works of God in great detail in order to appreciate his creativity for which he ended up creating everything and particularly the human kind, so that this creature gives his independent opinion about creativity of God by being a creative creature himself. Since mankind are divided they need a solid base for unity and the Quran provides that base for unity but once the unity movement begins by way of hard work for properly understanding and spreading the message of the Quran among mankind then some people who will realise the need for Quranic revelation will support it and some people who will see it as a problem because it is getting in their way of doing things their way will oppose it. It all depends on how different people see the message of the Quran as per their own stock of information and its understanding in their minds. If people just want to live their own lives bothered not with how world is doing things and how it is all affecting people as a whole through each other then things will get worse and worse but if people will participate as they should then things could be turned around for the better. All this interaction between people is part of life regardless we like it or not therefore we cannot escape it no matter how hard we try. This is what we call ideological or information warfare and thereby conditioning of minds or brainwashing. If one person does not try to do that the other will. This is what is going on all the time all around us human beings anywhere and everywhere. It is not that the whole world is at war with each other only but that that war is always going on even within each and every family or household regardless we pay attention to it or not. Look at how husband and wife have a power struggle going on between them. Look at how parents and children have a power struggle going on between themselves, Look at how siblings have power struggle going on between themselves and the same is true about relatives and friends and wider human society. The Quran provides solid base for mankind to live by properly free of such like tensions between people at all levels. This is what this surah deals with ie how people should support each other and how they should not and who they should look out for or who could prove dangerous for humanity as a whole, why or how. So this surah is telling people what they need to aim for and what they need to look out for in case they are led the wrong way round by those who conspire against guidance of Allah for mankind in order to get their own way which is based upon their personal gains or self interests or greed at the expense of all others therefore at the expense of proper human community. This surah identifies dangerous elements in human population ie people who want to become masters of other people and people who suck up to them to sell their way of life to masses and do their dirty works for them to bring masses under their grip. A major crime against humanity is committed by some people among people of every human society but people of Lot are mentioned about it in a big way. It is these people who are always the main obstacle in the way of establishment of a kingdom based upon guidance of Allah for ensuring well being of mankind through help and full support of each other. Such people as are called the Firowns ie imperialists, the Qaroons ie money lenders, the Hamaans ie religious leaders and the Samirees made up story tellers of this world as well as the inventers and spreaders of falsehood as truth to make the God revealed truth obscure on masses thereby. This is called their magic tricks whereby they try their best to get what they want or reach their objectives. The Quran puts these people into different categories. The rulers and their procurers who get masses to work for them and that is how humanity ends up used abusively by some of its members who act as less than human beings or even less than all the other living things ie the Quran labels them worse than all the animals. Proclaim! In the name of Allah, the provider of psychological, sociological and biological needs of mankind Whenever the Quran uses word RABB in it for God, it means creator, sustainer and maintainer. Although God has created all things but he has created human beings to be like God in a way as much as it is humanly possible for them as human beings. This is why even though God has provided all for all things forever yet he has given human beings a special status above all other things or creatures. It is because he has created mankind for a particular purpose therefore he has given people his program and guidelines for living properly in his kingdom as a proper human community. This is why all people must organise and regulate themselves for that God assigned purpose. It is due to that that they must become one people and manage their own affairs by using land and resources and means of production and distribution properly to ensure well being of all human beings anywhere and everywhere. 3] the only ruler able to protect and secure mankind through His advised way of life, 5] who tries to raise harmful and destructive ambitions and desires for personal gains at the expense of each other in minds of the people against each other, This surah explains what it means to accept message of Allah ie it is about accepting Allah as the sole ruler and therefore his advised way of life for mankind that is for carrying out his program according to his guidelines for a constitution and laws for ensuring well being of mankind through full help and support of each other. From this it is not difficult to see what is going to happen to such people who will stand up for implementation of this program for fulfilling goals set by Allah according to his provided guidelines. They will be opposed tooth and nail by opponents or adversaries and they will use every trick and mechanism they can to ensure such a thing does not get through or happen. They will try to convince people that this way of life is wrong and that their way of life is right and they will offer various incentives depending on strength of the movement for the mission assigned by God and individual’s position in there. Since the Quran is talking about establishment and maintenance of a kingdom based upon guidance of Allah therefore these verses are talking about what opposition is going to do to try to stop this mission in its track. This is where Allah draws our attention to TAOOZ because mullaism takes things in its own hands and misinterprets the message of the Quran and misrepresents it to masses thereby mullaism supports rulers and money lenders. This is why rulers, money lenders and mullas are labelled satans and we are advised by God to look out for them and their tricks and mechanisms to save ourselves from them and their traps. Unless masses educate themselves to see through tricks and mechanisms of rulers, money lenders, mullahs, their touts and supporters they will remain enslaved and therefore will be used abusively for as long as they remain in this situation. A scholar of the Quran cannot be a ruler or a money lender or a mullah because he explains the Quran as it ought to be explained as a book of deen of Islam and not as a religious mumbo jumbo that makes no sense. One may make odd mistakes about explaining things but such a person will not try to misinterpret the book deliberately nor misrepresent it to others deliberately. This work itself could be containing mistakes because we are all human beings and take time to learn things and realise our mistakes so people must use their own better judgement to reach their own conclusions. Is it not better for people to save time even from their necessities of life and study the Quran to rediscover its true message rather than wasting the time available. |
