Explanation of Suratul Baqarah
(Chapter 2) has been ended. It seems suitable that we should review once again,
the topics and their meanings mentioned in this Chapter.
In the beginning of
this Chapter, guidance and success of the mankind, and different human classes
were mentioned. Immediately after it, Deputyship of Adam (peace be upon him),
history of the Children of Israel, important and necessary conditions and
circumstances of Abraham’s (peace be upon him) Religious Belief were explained,
so that the Muslims should take warning from those errors and should not
involve in such evils, which were reasons of the destruction of ancient
nations.
After teaching
distinction among lawful and unlawful, good and evil, a collective concept of
goodness was given. And problems of social life were discussed, for example,
the law of retaliation and the last will etc. Along with it, teachings about a
Fast, Pilgrimage and Jihad were delivered. Then intention was drawn unto
important matters of family life, for example; marriage, divorce, ‘iddat (the term of probation incumbent
upon a woman in consequence of a dissolution of marriage either by divorce or
by the death of her husband), education of children, rights of husband and
wife, and other concerning matters.
Then after describing
from the history of the Children of Israel, Prophet David (peace be upon him),
incident of Saul and Goliath, some points of advice and exhortation were
produced. After ‘Aayatul-Kursii (a
great verse of this Chapter), reality of Belief and Disbelief was explained,
and in this connection, some occurrences in the blessed life of Messenger
Abraham (peace be upon him) were described.
In the last part of
the Chapter, particular attention was drawn towards “Spending in the Way of
Allah”, and in this regard, many examples were given.
The usury was
determined as forbidden and it was commanded that the writing and evidence are
necessary for the purpose of honesty and elegance in trade.
The Chapter ended at
important Prayers, which have been mentioned in the previous lesson.
