The Eye Sees .. But ..
And if we
talk about their eyes for example, we find that Allah (SWT) made their eyes
able to see but they do not use that function. For Moses (Peace be upon our
Prophet and upon him) came to the people of Pharaoh with a lot of signs that
they had seen with their eyes and in that Al-Haqq (SWT) says:
<<We sent on them: the flood, the locusts, the lice,
the frogs, and the blood (as a succession of) manifest signs, yet they remained
arrogant, and they were of those people who were Mujrimun (criminals,
polytheists, sinners)>>
Ayah 133 from surat Al-A’raf
All those
signs that Al-Haqq (SWT) sent to the people of Pharaoh were signs that could be
seen by the eyes without any effort. The wholesale death that drowned the earth
was obvious for every one of them. The locusts that ate the crops were watched
by all the people, and also were the lice and the frogs that they found in
their food. And the water that turned to blood whenever they tried to drink it.
Were not all those signs visible to all of them? Yes but although they saw it
they did not believe as if their eyes did not see. Because the objective of seeing
is to know something, make sure you see it right and believe what you see. But those
people saw things and they did not believe it and by that they were the same as
those who are not able to see.
When the infidels asked the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) for the moon to split as a sign from his God to proof that he (PBUH) is the Messenger, the moon was split. Did the infidels then believe in what they saw? No and they said that Muhammad did magic to their eyes and by that they were the same like those who could not see because they watched and refused to believe.
And for
their ears that do not listen, did not the infidels of Qoraish say as mentioned
in the Qur’an:
<<And those who disbelieve say: “Listen not to this
Qura’n, and make noise in the midst of its (recitation) that you may
overcome>>
Ayah 26 from surat Fussilat
As if their
hearing devices is working and could hear, but they themselves stopped using
them to listen to the words of Allah and they asked the people not to listen
when they themselves should have listened and understood.
Didn’t they
say about the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) that he was a poet, a soothsayer and
possessed? Was that applicable with the right logic typical to the sayings and
acts of the Messenger of Allah (PBUH)?
Did the
Messenger of Allah say one line of poetry before he has been responsible for
conveying the Message so that they call him a poet? Did he (PBUH) practice any
supernatural deeds before the Message was sent upon him so that they call him a
soothsayer? Did they hear anything from the Messenger of Allah other than the
best words and the best deeds? They used to call him the Faithful and the
Trustworthy and they all bore witness that he (PBUH) had the highest standards
of character and manners and when he (PBUH) came with the Message they called
him possessed.
Could those
words that they said about the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) be applied to what
they have seen, heard, reasoned or understood from the most honorable man,
Muhammad (PBUH). Of course not but their senses functioned normally before
Muhammad (PBUH) conveyed the Message of Allah and that was why they called him
the Trustworthy and described him to be the man with high standards of
character and manners who never lies or betrays their trust.
But after
the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) was made responsible of conveying the Message
they revoked their brains, their eyes and their ears and started talking with
their vain desires as if they did not understand, see or hear.
To be continued....
