[23].Surah Al-Muminun [The Believers]
Ayat 88. Say "In Whose Hand is the sovereignty of everything (i.e. treasures of each and everything)? And Allah protects (all), while against Whom there is no protector, (i.e. if Allah saves anyone none can punish or harm him, and if Allah punishes or harms anyone none can save him), if you know."
Ayat 89. They will say: "(All that belongs) to Allah." Say: "How then are you deceived and turned away from the truth?"
Tafseer Surah Al-Muminun Ayat 88 & 89. when asked "Who is in whose hands is the governance of all things,- who protects all, but is not protected (of any)? (say) if you know." They will say, "(It belongs) to Allah." Say: "Then how are ye deluded?" The order and unity of purpose in the Universe argue unity of design and goodness in its Maker. Is it not then sheer madness for you to run after fancies and fail to understand and obey His Will? It is a delusion in you to seek other than Allah.'
English Translation of Hadith
Hazrat Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: When this Verse was revealed: "And warn your tribe (O Muhammad
[SAWW](PBUH)) of near kindred". (26:214) Messenger of Allah
[SAWW](PBUH) called the Quraysh; when they gathered, he said to them: "O sons of `Abd Shams; O sons of Ka'b bin Lu'ai,
rescue yourselves from the Fire! O sons of Murrah bin Ka'b, rescue yourselves from the Fire! O sons of Abd Manaf, rescue yourselves from the Fire! O sons of Abdul-Muttalib, rescue yourselves from the Fire! O Fatimah (May Allah be pleased with her), rescue
yourself from the Fire, for I have no power (to protect you) from Allah in anything except that I would sustain a relationship with you".
[Muslim Book 01, Chapter 87, Hadith # 399]
Lesson : as mentioned above in Surah Al-Mu'minun Ayat 89." "How then are you deceived and turned away from the truth?" 1. This Hadith tells us that lineage in the Hereafter will not help anybody. So much so that even one's relationship with the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) shall not carry any weight on that day. The only thing that will then help in salvation will be one's good deeds. People for whom the Prophet (PBUH) and pious men will intercede will be believers with some sins in their account and not the disbelievers devoid of Faith and good actions. Neither will anybody intercede for the infidels, nor will the infidels find salvation.
2. In preaching religion, priority must be given to one's own close relatives. They deserve it more than anyone else, and for this reason Divine injunctions should be first of all conveyed to them.
3. Even if a Muslim's relatives are pagans and polytheists, their rights of kinsmen and the demands of "maintaining the ties of kinship'' enjoined by Islam must be fulfilled. The first and foremost demand of their rights is that they should be invited to the right path so that they will be saved from Hell-fire.
