Ayat 93. "And O my people! Act according to your ability
and way, and I am acting (on my way). You will come to know who it is on whom
descends the torment that will cover him with ignominy, and who is a liar! And
watch you! Verily, I too am watching with
you."
Hazrat Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with
him) reported: The Messenger of Allah [SAWW](PBUH) said, "Do not ask me unnecessarily about the
details of the things which I do not mention to you. Verily, the people before
you were doomed because they were used to putting many questions to their
Prophets and had differences about their Prophets. Refrain from what I forbid
you and do what I command you to the best of your ability and capacity".
[Al-Bukhari Volume
9, Book 92, Number 391]
Lesson
: as mentioned above in Surah Hud Ayat 93.
"O my people! Act according to your ability and way, and I am acting
(on my way)." To be unnecessarily
inquisitive and create differences and confusion in the Injunctions of Allah and
His Prophet [SAWW](PBUH) leads to destruction. The safest course lies only
in following the Orders of Allah and His Prophet [SAWW](PBUH) without `ifs' and `buts.' Hairsplitting in
religious issues falls in this category. It opens the door for chaos and
conflict and paves the way for disunity and separation. May Allah give sense to
the Muslim Ummah to abandon this road and take the Right Path which ensures
peace and security. Let it be absolutely clear that the Right Path is one and
one alone. There cannot be multiple right paths, it is one and singular. Once a
community leaves the Straight Path, it is sure to go astray.
