১২. আপনার
হাত আপনার বগলে ঢুকিয়ে দিন,
সুশুভ্র হয়ে বের হবে নির্দোষ অবস্থায়।
এগুলো
ফেরাউন ও তার সম্প্রদায়ের কাছে আনীত নয়টি নিদর্শনের অন্যতম। নিশ্চয় তারা
ছিল পাপাচারী সম্প্রদায়।
১৩. অতঃপর যখন তাদের কাছে আমার উজ্জল নিদর্শনাবলী আগমন করল,
তখন তারা বলল,
এটা তো সুস্পষ্ট জাদু।
১৪. তারা
অন্যায় ও অহংকার করে নিদর্শনাবলীকে প্রত্যাখ্যান করল,
যদিও তাদের অন্তর
এগুলো সত্য বলে বিশ্বাস করেছিল।
অতএব দেখুন,
অনর্থকারীদের পরিণাম কেমন
হয়েছিল?
Ayat 12. "And
put your hand into your bosom, it will come forth white without hurt.
(These are) among the nine signs (you will take) to Firaun (Pharaoh) and
his people, they are a people who are the Fasiqun (rebellious, disobedient to Allah).
Ayat 13. But when Our Ayat (proofs,
evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) came to them,
clear to see, they said: "This is a manifest magic."
Ayat 14. And they belied them (those Ayat) wrongfully and arrogantly, though their own selves were convinced thereof [i.e. those (Ayat)
are from Allah, and Musa (Moses) is the Messenger of Allah in truth,
but they disliked to obey Musa PBUH (Moses), and hated to believe in his
Message of Monotheism]. So see what was the end of the Mufsidun (disbelievers, disobedient to Allah, evil-doers, liars.)
Tafseer of Surah Al Naml (The Ants) Ayat 12 to 14. "Now
put thy hand into thy bosom, and it will come forth white without stain
(or harm): (these are) among the nine Signs (thou wilt take) to Pharaoh
and his people: for they are a people rebellious in transgression."
There the expression is: "Draw thy hand close to thy side." As far as
the physical act is concerned, the expressions there and here mean the
same thing. Moses had a loose-fitting robe. If he put his hand within
the folds of the robe, it would go to his bosom on the side of his body
opposite to that from which the hand came: i.e., if it was his right
hand it would go to the left side of his bosom. But the difference of
expression has little spiritual significance. The bosom here stands for
his innermost being, which was being so transformed with divine light as
to lend the radiance to his hand also, his instrument of action. The
hand comes out white and radiant without a stain. Ordinarily if the skin
becomes white it is a sign of disease or leprosy. Here it was the
opposite. It was a sign of radiance and glory from the higher Light. The
nine Signs: see Surah 17 Ayat 101. But when Our Signs came to them, that should have opened their eyes, they said: "This is sorcery manifest!" The
Signs should have clearly opened the eyes of any persons who honestly
examined them and thought about them. Those who rejected them were
perverse and were going against their own light and inner conviction.
That was the aggravating feature of their sin. And
they rejected those Signs in iniquity and arrogance, though their souls
were convinced thereof: so see what was the end of those who acted
corruptly!
Hazrat Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah [SAWW](PBUH) said, "Do
not ask me unnecessarily about the details of the things which I do not
mention to you. Verily, the people before you were doomed because they
were used to putting many questions to their Prophets and had
differences about their Prophets. Refrain from what I forbid you and do
what I command you to the best of your ability and capacity". [Al-Bukhari Chapter # 92 Hadith # 391].
Lesson : as mentioned above in Surah Al-Naml Ayat 14 "So see what was the end of the Mufsidun (disbelievers, disobedient to Allah, evil-doers, liars.)" To be unnecessarily inquisitive and create differences and confusion in the Injunctions of Allah and His Prophet [SAWW](PBUH) leads to destruction. The safest course lies only in following the Orders of Allah and His Prophet [SAWW](PBUH) without
`ifs' and `buts.' Hairsplitting in religious issues falls in this
category. It opens the door for chaos and conflict and paves the way for
disunity and separation. May Allah give sense to the Muslim Ummah to
abandon this road and take the Right Path which ensures peace and
security. Let it be absolutely clear that the Right Path is one and one
alone. There cannot be multiple right paths, it is one and singular.
Once a community leaves the Straight Path, it is sure to go astray
