Anfal 30
30- AS THOSE WHO DISBELIEVE PLOTTED AGAINST YOU, TO IMPRISON YOU, KILL YOU OR TURN YOU OUT, THEY ARE PLOTTING, HOWEVER ALLAH IS THE BEST PLANNER.
Allah the Highest is reminding his messenger prayer and peace upon him and the Muslims of the time in Makah when he was persecuted and life threatened in Makah before migration. This reached a climax at the time of his migration. It was after most Muslims who were able to migrate, left Makah.
The heads of the disbelievers met in Dar El-Nadwa in a meeting attended by Satan himself in the form of a Sheikh from Najd.
During the meeting it was suggested to Imprison Mohamed prayer and peace upon him, but this was rejected as he could have still communicated his ideas from his prison, and gain more followers, who would eventually come to free him.
It was suggested to turn him out of Makah, but this was also rejected because this would have given him freedom to travel and preach to other tribes and town, and he might then gain more followers.
The third suggestion was to get a strong man from each and every tribe and family, give each a sword, and get them all to strike him together like one man, and then his family would not be able to seek vengeance for him and would have to accept the ransom. They all agreed that this was the best plan and they agreed and plotted to execute this plan.
More than twenty strong men gathered outside Mohamed’s house with sharpened swords waiting for him to come out at dawn to kill him. He went out leaving Ali Ibn Abi Taleb in his bed, throw sand on their heads, and they did not see him. Allah’s protection was better than any protection he could have.
Being pious and observing Allah’s commands, is the cause for Allah’s support. Others plotting is neutralized, rendered in vain. Allah the Highest is sufficient to protect and to deal with it all, Allah the Highest said: “IS ALLAH NOT SUFFICIENT FOR HIS SLAVE, WHILE THEY THREATEN YOU WITH THOSE WHO ARE BENEATH HIM”. (S: 39 A: 36)
Allah’s planning is firm and can never be overcome by plotting or any other designs. Allah the Highest said: “AND THEY ARE GIVEN TIME, FOR MY PLANNING IS FIRM”. (S: 7 A; 183)
However, one should say that this does not mean that one should not do the best one can, and the make the best plans and precautions before embarking on a task, and then a believer should rely on Allah the Highest for help and protection.
