Ayat
19. Do you not see that
Allah has created the heavens and the earth with truth? If He will, He can
remove you and bring (in your place) a new creation!
Lesson : as
mentioned above in Surah Ibrahim
{A.S} Ayat 19. "Allah has created the heavens and the
earth with truth" This Hadith lays down
a very important principle. Unfortunately, Muslims have not attached any
importance to this Hadith and the principle given in it with the result that
innovations in the Deen have become so common that they have been taken for true
Deen; our people act upon them and are made to practice them. One reason for this is their lack of education and
ignorance about Deen. The second reason is their lack of understanding of the
principle prescribed in this Hadith although it is stated in very explicit
terms.
The principle that we learn from this Hadith
is that every such action or activity is innovation which is done as a virtue
and to gain the Pleasure of Allah but is not consonant with the teachings of the
Qur'an and Sunnah, or which does not agree with the interpretation of the Nuss
(text) given by the Companions of the Prophet (PBUH) or their successors
(Tabi`un). The reason being that the period of the Companions and the Tabi`un is
the Khair-ul-Qurun (the best of all generations). Thus any action or activity
that is deprived of the support of these generations falls in the category of
heresies.
Ayat 20. And
for Allah that is not hard or difficult (i.e. very easy for Allah).
Hazrat Aishah (May Allah be pleased with her)
reported: Messenger of Allah [SAWW](PBUH) said, "If anyone introduces in our matter something
which does not belong to it, will be rejected". in
another narration in Muslim says: "If anybody introduces a practice which
is not authenticated by me, it is to be rejected".
[Muslim Book 18, Chapter 06, Hadith #
4266].
