فَـَٔامَنَ لَهُۥ لُوطٌ وَقَالَ إِنِّى مُهَاجِرٌ إِلَىٰ رَبِّىٓ إِنَّهُۥ هُوَ ٱلْعَزِيزُ ٱلْحَكِيمُ 26  وَوَهَبْنَا لَهُۥٓ إِسْحَٰقَ وَيَعْقُوبَ وَجَعَلْنَا فِى ذُرِّيَّتِهِ ٱلنُّبُوَّةَ وَٱلْكِتَٰبَ وَءَاتَيْنَٰهُ أَجْرَهُۥ فِى ٱلدُّنْيَا وَإِنَّهُۥ فِى ٱلْءَاخِرَةِ لَمِنَ ٱلصَّٰلِحِينَ 27

26.  And Lot believed him. And He (Abraham) said: Lo! I am a fugitive unto my Lord. Lo! He, only He, is the Mighty, the Wise.   27.  And We bestowed on him Isaac and Jacob, and We established the Prophet-hood and Scripture among his seed, and We gave him his reward in this world, and lo! In the Hereafter he verily is among the righteous.

Commentary

Prophet Abraham (peace be upon him) caused to understand the people of his folk by every way that “worshiping of idols is a great error”. But they did not understand. Moreover, they became his enemies and cast him in the pyre of fire after kindling it. Allaah Almighty protected him (peace be upon him) safe and sound from the fire by His mercy and they could not harm him. Even after that, he (peace be upon him) warned them continuously, but only his nephew; named Lot (peace be upon him) confirmed and believed in him. Other all people denied. When the enemies troubled Abraham (peace be upon him) more than enough then Allaah Almighty commanded him to leave the township. He (peace be upon him) did not invoke a curse for his folk, but at the end he said to his father and left off, “I shall pray in the Court of Allaah Almighty for your guidance and to forgive your sins”. After saying this, he along with his wife Sarah and his nephew Lot (peace be upon them), departed from their native land Babel (Township of Syria) having belief in Allaah Almighty.

 

This emigration became blessed for them by the Grace of Allaah Almighty. He gave Abraham (peace be upon him) a son whose name was Isaac and then the name of Isaac’s son was Jacob (peace be upon them). The Children of Israel were descendants of Jacob (peace be upon him). In the family of Abraham (peace be upon him), Prophet-hood was established for ever and the heavenly Scriptures were also revealed among them. Allaah Almighty gave Abraham (peace be upon him) his reward in this world, and indeed he is among the righteous in the Hereafter too.

25.  And he said: Ye have chosen only idols instead of Allah. The love between you is only in the life of the world. Then on the Day of Resurrection ye will deny each other and curse each other, and your abode will be the Fire, and ye will have no helpers.

Commentary

 

Allaah Almighty brought out Abraham (peace be upon him) safe and sound from the fire. But to whom Allaah Almighty appoints His Messenger for the guidance of the people, he does not feel comfort when he observes that the people have been going astray. The same condition is of such person in whose heart; the Light of the Messenger’s guidance has taken place. Whether the people trouble him so much, but he cannot refrain from advising them. He grieves when observes that the people are not on the right way. When they do not follow him then he complains in the Court of Allaah Almighty. After that, either his enemies are destroyed immediately or he departs from that place along with his companions. Departure from one’s Country and relatives is the Tradition of Abraham (peace be upon him), which was followed by the last Messenger, Muhammad (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) too.

 

He (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) did not imprecate for his enemies but departed himself from Makkah. It was the result that at last he (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) got victory and his enemies were defeated.

 

Abraham (peace be upon him) caused to understand after coming out from the fire and used to say: You wish to keep up harmony and unity among yourselves only in the world. But the life of this world is only for a few days. On the Day of Resurrection, mutual dissension will arise between all of you and you will revile one another. Then you all will be thrown into the Fire of the Hell and your present false unity will be useless for you. Neither your self-made idols will be able to help you and nor your worldly friends.

 

It is found from the above mentioned verse that “Trust in false faiths and defective religions will be useless after death”.
