{ الذين آتيناهم الكتاب يعرفونه } أي محمداً { كما يعرفون أبناءهم } بنعته في كتبهم قال ابن سلام : لقد عرفته حين رأيته كما أعرف ابني ومعرفتي لمحمد أشد { وإن فريقا منهم ليكتمون الحق } نعته { وهم يعلمون } هذا الذي أنت عليه .
Firman Allah Taala: Orang-orang (Yahudi dan Nasrani) yang Kami berikan Kitab itu mengetahui serta mengenalinya (Nabi Muhammad dan kebenarannya) sebagaimana mereka mengenal anak-anak mereka sendiri. Dan sesungguhnya sebahagian dari mereka berusaha menyembunyikan kebenaran itu, sedang mereka mengetahui (salahnya perbuatan yang demikian). (God Almighty says in the Holy Quran: Those to whom (Jews And Christian) We gave the Scripture know him (Prophet Muhammad Shall-Allahu-Alayhi-wa-Sallam (peace be on him) as they know their own sons. But indeed, a party of them conceal the truth while they know (it). (QS 2:146)
( يا أيها الرسول بلغ ) جميع ( ما أنزل إليك من ربك ) ولا تكتم شيئا منه خوفا أن تنال بمكروه ( وإن لم تفعل ) أي لم تبلغ جميع ما أنزل إليك ( فما بلغت رسالته ) بالإفراد والجمع لأن كتمان بعضها ككتمان كلها ( والله يعصمك من الناس ) أن يقتلوك وكان صلى الله عليه وسلم يحرس حتى نزلت فقال : "" انصرفوا فقد عصمني الله "" رواه الحاكم ( إن الله لا يهدي القوم الكافرين ) .
God Almighty says in the Holy Quran: O Messenger, announce that which has been revealed to you from your Lord, and if you do not, then you have not conveyed His message. And Allah will protect you from the people. Indeed, Allah does not guide the disbelieving people. (QS5: 67)
In strict obedience to the command of his Lord, our beloved Prophet Shallallahu Alayhi-waa-Sallam (peace and blessings of God be on him) sacrificed every breath of his life to accomplish the task that was required of him. He was insulted and derided; he was humiliated and persecuted: and finally he was forced into exile by his own people. Yet his dedication and zeal to preach the message of the Lord did not diminish. The practice and example of our beloved master, Hazrat Muhammad Mustapha Shallallahu Alayhi-waa-Sallam (peace and blessings of God be on him) stands as a beacon of light unto the Muslims of all generations. In the early years of his ministry, the Ahle Quraish approached his blessed uncle Hazrat Abu Talib with a request that if he would stop his nephew from preaching the message of Islam, they would be prepared to acknowledge his nephews as their king and they would also he prepared to offer him any woman he desired as a wife and as much money as he demanded. When Hazrat Abu Talib conveyed the message of the Meccans to our beloved Prophet (Shallallahu Alayhi-waa-Sallam (peace and blessings of God be on him), he replied: ‘O my uncle! There is not a power in this WORLD which can stop me from preaching the truth. If the people of Mecca were to place the sun in one of my hands and the moon in the other, I shall still not desist from proclaiming the truth.’ It is our faith that whatever commandments were enjoined upon our blessed master Shallallahu Alayhi-waa-Sallam (peace and blessings of God be on him), these were equally enjoined upon all Muslims. It is hence an integral part of the Islamic faith that all Muslims continue to observe the injunctions of the Holy Quran and keep alive the blessed practice of our master Shallallahu Alayhi-waa-Sallam (peace and blessings of God be on him) through constantly preaching the message of truth unto mankind. There is not another comparable service to humanity which has a greater importance in the sight of Allah than guiding mankind unto a path which eventually leads to its Creator. A person who leads another to the truth, not only earns the prayers of those led to the truth but also wins the pleasure of his Lord and Master, the Almighty Allah. Traditions report that the Holy Prophet Shallallahu Alayhi-waa-Sallam (peace and blessings of God be on him) while counselling Hazrat Ali, stated:
O Ali! It is a greater blessing for you to bring into the fold of Islam, one single soul in search of truth than to acquire 100 white camels. (Muslim: Kitab-al-Fazail: Bab Fazail-e-Ali & Bukhari: Kitab-al-Jehad).
It should he borne in mind however, that preaching is a very blessed undertaking and hence should he conducted in a manner most pleasing to the Lord. The following guidelines could be of benefit to every daiee illallah missionary. It is practically impossible for any mortal being to convince another on the strength of one's personal knowledge or verbal articulation. To open the heart of the listener is a sole prerogative of Almighty Allah. Our personal obligation is to convey the message only and hence one should always supplicate the Lord to reward one's efforts. Preaching can only bear fruits when that which is being preached is also being practiced. A dedicated preacher is required to set an example unto others and hence one should always strive to improve one's own conduct and character. The holy Quran demands that the actions of the Muslims correspond to their practice when it states:
(Reminder: Almighty God says in the Holy Quran:)
{ كبر } عظم { مقتا } تمييز { عند الله أن تقولوا } فاعل كبر { ما لا تفعلون } .
Firman Allah Taala: Amat besar kebenciannya di sisi Allah - kamu memperkatakan sesuatu yang kamu tidak melakukannya. (61:3)
{ إن الله يحب } ينصر ويكرم { الذين يقاتلون في سبيله صفا } حال، أي صافين { كأنهم بنيان مرصوص } ملزق بعضه إلى بعض ثابت.
Firman Allah Taala: Sesungguhnya Allah mengasihi orang-orang yang berperang untuk membela ugamaNya, dalam barisan yang teratur rapi, seolah-olah mereka sebuah bangunan yang tersusun kukuh. (61:4)
God Almighty says in the Holy Quran: Indeed, Allah loves those who fight in His cause in a row as though they are a (single) structure joined firmly. (QS61: 4)
The Holy Quran lays down some very strict conditions upon Muslims and while advising them on the procedure of preaching, it states: Call unto the way of the Lord with wisdom and goodly exhortation and argue with them in a way which is best.
It is hence necessary that while preaching, one should conduct a dialogue in a kind and a civil manner. One should neither tread upon the sensitivities of others, nor should one make any offensive remark or show disrespect for either the faith of others or the founders of their faiths. Kindness and civility of language is an essential ingredient in the field of preaching. When the Almighty Allah directed Prophet Moses Alaihis Sallam (peace be on him) to convey His message to Pharaoh, He commanded:
God Almighty says in the Holy Quran: Go, both of you, to Pharaoh, for he has transgressed all bounds. But speak to him a gentle word, haply he might take heed or fear. (QS20: 44/45)
{ فقولا له قولا لينا } في رجوعه عن ذلك { لعله يتذكر } يتعظ { أو يخشى } الله فيرجع والترجي بالنسبة إليهما لعلمه تعالى بأنه لا يرجع .
Firman Allah Taala: "Kemudian hendaklah kamu berkata kepadanya, dengan kata-kata yang lemah-lembut, semoga ia beringat atau takut". (20:44)
{ قالا ربنا إننا نخاف أن يفرط علينا } أي يعجل بالعقوبة { أو أن يطغى } علينا أي يتكبر .
Firman Allah Taala: Mereka berdua berkata: "Wahai Tuhan kami! Sesungguhnya kami takut bahawa ia akan segera menyeksa kami, atau ia akan melampau batas". (20:45)
