Maeda 35-37
35- YOU WHO BELIEVE; BE PIOUS AND GUARD YOURSELVES FROM ALLAH’S DISPLEASURE, AND SEEK THE WAY (WASELA) TO HIM, AND STRUGGLE IN HIS CAUSE, SO THAT YOU MAY SUCCEED.
36- THOSE WHO DISBELIEVE; IF THEY HAVE ALL THERE IS IN THE EARTH AND AS MUCH AGAIN, TO RANSOM THEM FROM THE PUNISHMENT OF THE RESURRECTION DAY, IT WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED FROM THEM, AND THEY WILL HAVE PAINFUL PUNISHMENT.
37- THEY WANT TO GET OUT OF THE FIRE, BUT THEY WILL NEVER GET OUT OF IT, AND THEY WILL HAVE ONGOING PUNISHMENT.
Another reminder and command for the Muslims to be pious, and to guard ourselves from Allah’s displeasure by obeying Allah. The word Wasela means the method used to achieve or reach a goal. This is done via the accepted ways to reach that goal. To achieve Allah’s pleasure, there are ways to do so, which are;
A: through worshiping sincerely.
B: through dealing with others in the way Allah the Highest likes and commands.
There is another meaning to the word “Wasela”. It is a status in Paradise which is granted for one person only. Allah’s messenger prayer and peace upon him said: “When you hear the Azan, say as he says, then say prayer upon me, for he who prays upon me once, Allah will pray upon him ten times, then ask for the Wasela for me, for it is a status in Paradise to be granted to one of Allah, I hope to be him; he who asks the Wasela for my, will have the intercession”. (Muslim & Abu Dawood & Termezi)
(The Intercession is Allah’s messenger’s intercession for us on the Day of Resurrection)
In another Hadith narrated by Jabir Ibn Abd Allah, Allah’s messenger prayer and peace upon him said: “Whoever says when he hears the call for prayer; Allah, you are the Lord of this complete call and the Salah we are rising for, give Mohamed Al-Wasela and the honour and resurrect him to the glorified status you promised him” he will have my intercession on the Day of Resurrection. (Bukhari, Abu Dawood, Termezi)
Struggling in the cause of Allah is a duty upon the Muslims every where and at all times. Struggling in the cause of Allah is not just in the battle field, but it can through many other ways:
Looking after elderly parents
Looking after orphans
Speaking out to an unjust ruler
Fighting against bad things in the society
And many other
After the end of our life on Earth, the role and value of money, gold and silver will end. There will be no currency, only our deeds, good and bad will give us a credit or otherwise with Allah the Highest. Therefore there will be no value to money, gold and silver between people, neither with Allah the Highest who has every thing. Therefore, even if someone has as much gold as the whole earth, it will not be of any help to him.
Allah’s messenger prayer and peace upon him said: “A man will be brought from the Hell-Fire and told: Son of Adam, how did you find your resting place? He will say: “The worst place” He will be told: “Will you ransom yourself with gold that fills the whole earth?” He will say: “Yes my Lord”, then it will be said to him: “You lie, I asked you for less than that but you did not do it” Then he will be taken to the Fire”. (Muslim & Nesaee & Bukhari)
The disbelievers will try their best to get out of the Fire but they will not get out of the fire, for their punishment is continuous, everlasting and eternal.
Not every one in the Hell-Fire will be there eternally, for some of the believers will have a taste of the Hell-Fire as a punishment for their sins on earth, then they will be taken out. Some will be taking out of the Hell-Fire, out of Allah’s bounty and grace. The disbelievers however will have no reprieve.
