Commentary
Punishment for the
usurer has been described after forbidding from devouring the usury that his
last abode would be Fire of Hell, which is in fact for the disbelievers. It
revealed that a usurer would also be produced in the Court of Allah Almighty as
a sinner like a disbeliever. Therefore, Muslims should escape from the curse of
usury/interest, and pass their lives as those who fear Allah.
Then it has been
commanded: Obey Allah Almighty and His Last Messenger, Muhammad (grace, glory,
blessings and peace be upon him). This obedience becomes cause of mercy upon
them. To execute the command of Prophet (grace, glory, blessings and peace be
upon him) is just like obeying the Order of Allah Almighty, because it is the
Order of Allah Almighty that you would have to obey perfectly the commands of
the Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him). Some Muslims
disobeyed the instructions of the Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace
be upon him) in the Battle of ‘Uhud, which endangered their victory. Therefore, it has
been admonished, “Do not fall short and do not commit any error as such in
future. If you will obey Allah Almighty and His Messenger, (grace, glory,
blessings and peace be upon him) then you will find mercy of Allah Almighty.
Doing so, the doors of success and betterment will be opened for you”.
It is being
commanded in the third verse of this lesson, “Vie one with another for
forgiveness from your Lord. (Labor too hard towards the good deeds and fine
manners, for which Allah Almighty and His Messenger, (grace, glory, blessings
and peace be upon him) has commanded you. If you will pass your lives in
God-fearing and control of the passions then after death from this mortal
world, your last abode will be Paradise , which is as wide as are the heavens and the earth, prepared for those
who ward off (evil). The human being cannot think vaster than the space of
heavens and the earth collectively. Therefore, width of Paradise has been illustrated by a
simile of the space of heavens and the earth.
The difference in the result of a usurer and
obedient mankind of Allah Almighty has been revealed that one of them is
disgraced in the world as well as he will be fuel of hell-fire on the Day of
Resurrection. The other person, who is obedient, passes his life with honor and
he will be entitled to live in the beautiful gardens of Paradise on the Doomsday.
