Ayat
84. And to the
Madyan (Midian) people (We sent) their brother Shoaib [PBUH]. He said: "O my
people! Worship Allah, you have no other Ilah (God) but Him, and give not
short measure or weight, I see you in prosperity; and verily I fear for you the
torment of a Day encompassing.
Hazrat Abu Dharr (May Allah be pleased with
him) said: The Messenger of Allah [SAWW](PBUH) said, "Allah, the Exalted, and Glorious, said; 'O
My slaves, were the first of you and the last of you, the human of you and the
jinn of you to stand in one place and make a request of Me, and were I to give
everyone what he requested, that would not decrease what I have, any more than a
needle decrease the sea if put into it. O My slaves, it is but your deeds that I
reckon for you and then recompense you for, so let him who finds good (i.e., in
the Hereafter) praise Allah and let him who finds other than that blame no one
but himself.'''.
[Muslim Book 032, Chapter 13,
Hadith # 6246].
Lesson
: as mentioned above in Surah Hud Ayat 84.
"O my people! Worship Allah, you have no other Ilah (God) but
Him, and give not short measure or weight, I see you in prosperity; ." This Hadith mentions the Power and Majesty of
Allah and stresses that one should supplicate Allah for everything that one
needs. From guidance to sustenance, the treasures of everything are with Him -
the treasures which are unlimited and any withdrawal from them does not make any
reduction in them. Similar is the case of His Sovereignty; it is not affected
even if the whole universe supports or opposes them. Thus, it is in the interest
of man that he should dedicate himself entirely to Allah and beg all his needs
from Him and Him Alone.
