Ayat 46. And if a breath (minor calamity) of the Torment of your
Lord touches them, they will surely cry: "Woe unto us! Indeed we have been
Zalimun (polytheists and wrong-doers, etc.).
Ayat 47.
And We shall set up balances of justice on the Day of Resurrection, then
none will be dealt with unjustly in anything. And if there be the weight of a
mustard seed, We will bring it. And Sufficient are We as Reckoners.
[Tafseer]
If but a breath of the Wrath
of thy Lord do touch them, they will then say, "Woe to us! we did wrong
indeed!" We
shall set up scales of justice for the Day of Judgment, so that not a soul will
be dealt with unjustly in the least, and if there be (no more than) the weight
of a mustard seed, We will bring it (to account): and enough are We to take
account. Not the smallest action, word, thought, motive, or
predilection but must come into the account of Allah. Cf. Browning (in Rabbi Ben Ezra): "But all, the world's coarse thumb
and finger failed to plumb, So passed in making up the main account; All
instincts immature, All purposes unsure, That weighed not as his work, yet
swelled the man's account; Thoughts hardly to be packed Into a narrow act,
Fancies that broke through language and escaped; All I could never be, All, men
ignored in me, This, I was worth to God, Whose wheel the pitcher
shaped." The literalism of Sale has here excelled itself: he translates,
"and there will be sufficient accountants with us"! What is meant is that when
Allah takes account, His accounting will be perfect: there will be no flaw in
it, as there may be in earthly accountants, who require other people's help in
some matters of account which they do not understand for want of knowledge of
that particular department they are dealing with. Allah's knowledge is perfect,
and therefore his justice will be perfect also; for He will not fail to take
into account all the most intangible diings that determine conduct and
character. There is no contradiction between this and 18:104-105,
where it is said that men of vain words, i.e., shallow
hypocritical deeds, will have no weight attached to their deeds. In fact the two
correspond.
Hazrat Abdullah bin
Amr bin Al-Aas (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah
[SAWW](PBUH) supplicated: "Allahumma musarrifal-qulubi, sarrif qulubana `ala
ta`atika (O Allah! Controller of the hearts, direct our hearts to Your
obedience).''
[Muslim Book 33, Chapter 03, Hadith #
6481]
Lesson : as
mentioned above in Surah Al-Anbiya' Ayat 47."We will bring it. And
Sufficient are We as Reckoners" This is a very important prayer because through it one seeks
steadfastness in virtue. Everybody's heart is always open to troubles, turmoil
and ordeals and he is drifting from one situation to the other. If he is not
supported by Allah, he can deviate from the Right Path at any moment. For this
reason, he has been required to pray to Allah to save his heart from turning
towards evils and keep it towards Allah, because it is He Alone Who is Capable
of controlling
hearts.
