Ayat
65. See you not that Allah has subjected to you (mankind)
all that is on the earth, and the ships that sail through the sea by His
Command? He withholds the heaven from falling on the earth except by His Leave.
Verily, Allah is, for mankind, full of Kindness, Most Merciful.
[Tafseer]
65.
Sees thou not that Allah has made subject to you (men) all
that is on the earth, and the ships that sail through the sea by His Command? He
withholds the sky (rain) from failing on the earth except by His leave: for
Allah is Most Kind and Most Merciful to man. Land and
sea have been made subject to man by Allah's command, so that man can develop
his life freely on earth. Sama 'means (1) something high, (2) a roof, a ceiling, (3) the sky, the
canopy of heaven, (4) cloud or rain. I understand the last meaning here, though
most authorities seem to render it by some such word as "sky". If we understand
rain here, we have a complete picture of the three elements in which man
lives-land, air and sea. Rain is also appropriate for mention with Allah's
kindness and mercy. He regulates the rain for man's
benefit.
Hazrat Aishah (May Allah be pleased with her)
reported: The Messenger of Allah
[SAWW](PBUH) said, "Allah is Forbearer and He loves forbearance, and rewards for
forbearance while He does not reward severity, and does not give for any thing
besides it (forbearance).''
[Muslim Book 32, Chapter 21,
Hadith #
6273]
Lesson : as
mentioned above in Surah Al-Hajj Ayat 65."Verily, Allah is, for
mankind, full of Kindness, Most Merciful." Mildness is the opposite of harshness. Allah
enjoins softness and dislikes stiffness in human relations. Allah assures of
reward for gentle behaviour in society, not for unkindness or anything like
that. However, inflexibility is preferred to flexibility when there arises a
question of religious matters and the limits set by
Allah.
