[26].Surah Ash-Shuara [The Poets]: Ayat 123-127

১২৩. আদ সম্প্রদায় পয়গম্বরগণকে মিথ্যাবাদী বলেছে।
১২৪. তখন তাদের ভাই হুদ তাদেরকে বললেনঃ তোমাদের কি ভয় নেই?
১২৫. আমি তোমাদের বিশ্বস্ত রসূল।
১২৬. অতএব, তোমরা আল্লাহকে ভয় কর এবং আমার আনুগত্য কর।
১২৭. আমি তোমাদের কাছে এর জন্যে প্রতিদান চাই না। আমার প্রতিদান তো পালনকর্তা দেবেন।
   

Ayat 123. Ad (people) belied the Messengers.

Ayat 124. When their brother Hud PBUH said to them: "Will you not fear Allah and obey Him?

Ayat 125. "Verily! I am a trustworthy Messenger to you.

Ayat 126. "So fear Allah, keep your duty to Him, and obey me.

Ayat 127. "No reward do I ask of you for it (my Message of Islamic Monotheism), my reward is only from the Lord of the 'Alamin (mankind, jinns, and all that exists). 

Tafseer of Ayat 123 to 127. The ´Ad (people) rejected the messengers the 'Ad people and their location. Here, the emphasis is on the fact that they were materialists believing in brute force, and felt secure in their fortresses and resources, but were found quite helpless when Allah's Message came and they rejected it. Behold, their brother Hud said to them: "Will ye not fear ((Allah))? "I am to you a messenger worthy of all trust: "So fear Allah and obey me. "No reward do I ask of you for it: my reward is only from the Lord of the Worlds. 

Hazrat Abu Dharr (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah [SAWW](PBUH) said, "Allah, the Almighty, says: `Whosoever does a good deed, will have (reward) ten times like it and I add more; and whosoever does an evil, will have the punishment like it or I will forgive (him); and whosoever approaches Me by one span, I will approach him by one cubit; and whosoever approaches Me by one cubit, I approach him by one fathom, and whosoever comes to Me walking, I go to him running; and whosoever meets Me with an earth-load of sins without associating anything with Me, I meet him with forgiveness like that".  [Muslim Book 035, Ch-06, Hadith # 6499]

 

Lesson : as mentioned above in Surah Ash-Shuara Ayat 124.""Will you not fear Allah and obey Him?" This Hadith mentions the infinite Compassion and Mercy of Allah to His obedient slaves and a special expression of which will be made by Him on the Day of Resurrection. On that Day, He will give at least ten times reward for each good deed. In some cases it may be far more than that, seven hundred times or more, as He would like. Such benevolence on His part warrants that a Muslim should never lose hope of His forgiveness.
