Ayat
23. Truly, Allah will admit those who
believe (in the Oneness of Allah Islamic Monotheism) and do righteous good
deeds, to Gardens underneath which rivers flow (in Paradise), wherein they will
be adorned with bracelets of gold and pearls and their garments therein will be
of silk.
Ayat 24. And they are guided (in this
world) unto goodly speech (i.e. Lâ ilaha ill-Allah, Alhamdu illah,
recitation of the Qur'an, etc.) and they are guided to the Path of Him (i.e.
Allah's Religion of Islamic Monotheism), Who is Worthy of all praises.
[Tafseer] Allah will
admit those who believe and work righteous deeds, to Gardens beneath
which rivers flow: they shall be adorned therein with bracelets of gold and
pearls; and their garments there will be of silk. In Ayat 14 of same Surah,
was described the meed of the Righteous as compared with the time-servers and
those who worshipped false gods here we have the case of those who were
persecuted, abused, prevented from entering the Kabah and deprived of all that
makes life smooth, agreeable, and comfortable. For them the meed is described in
metaphors that negative all these afflictions: costly adornments (as against
being stripped of home and property), purity of speech (as against the abuse
they received), the Path of the Lord of Praise (as against the fierce and
malignant persecution to which they were
subjected). For they have been guided
(in this life) to the purest of speeches; they have been guided to the Path of
Him Who is Worthy of (all)
Praise.
Hazrat Abdullah bin
Masud (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah
[SAWW](PBUH) said, "Truth leads to piety and piety leads to Jannah [Paradise]. A
man persists in speaking the truth till he is enrolled with Allah as a truthful.
Falsehood leads to vice and vice leads to the Fire (Hell), and a person persists
on telling lies until he is enrolled as a liar".'
[Muslim Book 32,Chapter 26, Hadith #
6306]
Lesson : as
mentioned above in Surah Al-Hajj Ayat 23."Allah will admit those who believe (in the Oneness of Allah
Islamic Monotheism) and do righteous good deeds" Siddiq (veracious) and Kadhdhab (liar) both are adjectives of
intensive degree. That is to say, the words stand respectively for someone whose
truth has become his second nature; and in the opposite case, one is a liar who
is in the habit of telling lies. As one acquires a reputation in this world for
his good or bad deeds similar is his position before Allah. One who is ranked
among the truthful with Him is entitled to reward, and if one is a liar, he has
to suffer retribution for it. This Hadith provides incentive for truthfulness
because it is a source of every good deed and contains a warning against lying
as it gives rise to all kinds of mischief.
