Quran (Chapter-112/ ALIkhlas-Sincerity)
The Holy Quran
Introduction: Surah Al Ikhlas It is a 112th surah of the Holy
Quran in order. Surah Al Ikhlas "Sincerity, Pure" was revealed
in Mecca, Arabia on Muhammad (peace be upon him). the last
Prophet and Messenger of God (Allah) Almighty .The surah
describe, There is only one Allah Almighty the Almighty , Who is
unique in His person and attributes.
No one share these with Him. Only His Law is in force in the
entire universe; and all mankind should also live under that one
Law. This will create unity in mankind. (The inevitable outcome
of the concept of oneness of the Creator is the singularity of
law and unity of mankind). The total number of verse in this
surah are 4. Summary of Surah : verse 1-4
1: (In this connection it should also be clearly explained to
your own people that your victory and success are not merely on
account of your armed strength. Your success is in fact the
result of the ideology or teaching which you present with reason
and which you make people accept through logical arguments. The
fundamental point of this ideology is the concept of Allah
Almighty the Almighty . In the way you present this concept of
Allah, it is not possible for a man who ponders intelligently
over it, to refuse to accept it.
(i) There is only one Allah Almighty the Almighty , Who is
unique in His person and attributes. No one share these with
Him. Only His Law is in force in the entire universe; and all
mankind should also live under that one Law. This will create
unity in mankind. (The inevitable outcome of the concept of
oneness of the Creator is the singularity of law and unity of
mankind).
2: (ii). Allah Almighty is self-sufficient and everything else
is dependent on Him for its survival, nourishment and
development. He is like a firmly established lofty rock which
itself is safe from all dangers. And everyone else rushes
towards it for seeking safety and protection from deluge.
3: He has brought into existence every living being through the
process of creation; not of procreation. (In procreation a part
of the producer is passed on to the product. Thus the father,
namely the producer, becomes somewhat deficient. This is not the
case in creation). Neither did He give birth to any one, nor is
He Himself a product of the process of procreation.
4: (iii) There is no one who can ever be His equal or His like.
(Leaving the few atheists aside, the majority of people in the
world proclaim that they believe in God. God however is not
visible whereby everyone can see and believe in Him in the same
way as others. God is non-physical, non-visible and beyond
perception. Therefore a person has to tie the belief in God to
the concept of God which he or she has. If you have only one
concept of God, it means you believe in God. If at the same time
you also have another concept, it means that you do not believe
in God inspite of your claim that you do. The true concept of
God is that which God Himself gave about Himself. That concept
is not available anywhere outside the Quran. Therefore to
believe according to the Quranic concept means truly believing
in God. This concept of God has comprehensively been given in
these few words. A purer or higher concept about Him cannot be
obtained from any source of knowledge. The secret of success
lies in believing this God and as far as humanly possible, one
should reflect God's attributes in one's personality. The nation
that bears such high qualities shall be invincible. No other
nation will be able to face them).
