Ayat 43. "O
my father! Verily! There has come to me of knowledge that which came not unto
you. So follow me. I will guide you to a Straight Path.
[Tafseer] Some are more
receptive to Light than others. It is their duty and privilege to guide and
point to the right Way. Sawiyan—right, smooth, even; complete, perfect; hence the derived
meanings; 'in full possession of all the physical senses'; in that context,
'not dumb': (O my father! Lo! there hath come unto me) from Allah (of
knowledge) of exposition (that which came not unto thee) that whoever worships
other than Allah will torment him with the Fire. (So follow me)
regarding Allah's religion, (and I will lead thee on a right path) I will
guide you to a just path and erect path that Allah is pleased with which is
Islam.
Hazrat Abu Musa (May
Allah be pleased with him) reported: Messenger of Allah 
[SAWW](PBUH) said, "The similitude of guidance and knowledge with which Allah
has sent me is like a rain which has fallen on some ground. A fertile part of
earth has absorbed water and brought forth much grass and herbs. Another part,
which is solid, held the water and Allah benefits men thereby, who drank and
gave others to drink, and used it for irrigation. But some of it has fallen on a
portion of sandy land which neither retains the water nor produces herbage. Such
is the likeness of the man who understands the religion of Allah and who gets
benefit of what Allah has sent me with; he learns and teaches others. It is also
the likeness of the man who neither raises his head on that account (meaning he
does not benefit from what the Prophet
[SAWW](PBUH) was sent with) nor accepts Allah's Guidance with which I am
sent".
[Al-Bukhari Book 01,Chapter 03, Hadith #
079]
Lesson : as
mentioned above in Surah Maryam Ayat 43."There has come to me
of knowledge that which came not unto you" In this Hadith the guidance and knowledge which was sent to mankind
through the Prophet (PBUH) is compared to the rain which is beneficial, because
this knowledge resuscitates the dead hearts as does the rain to a barren land.
One who makes use of this knowledge is likened to a good soil, and one who
acquires this knowledge and imparts it to others but does not put it into
practice is considered akin to a hard land which holds water and other people
utilize it. A person who neither learns it nor acts upon it is like a desolate
land which neither holds water nor produces anything. Such a person is the worst
of all because he neither himself benefits from it nor lets others make use of
it. This Hadith induces one to acquire knowledge, impart it to others, put it
into actual practice and warns people from neglecting this
duty.
