Introduction
In this Surah, the Quran addresses human nature with its own logic.
Allah who revealed the Quran is the One who created human nature.
Allah knows what suits human nature and brings the best out of it.
He also knows how to address it and what affects its inner thoughts and feelings.
The Quran explains to human nature the truth that is deeply ingrained in it,
The Quran explains to human nature the fact that is deeply-rooted in it,
The Quran explains to human nature the truth that is deeply embedded in it,
Such truth is built in inside every human nature which it knew long before it was addressed by the Quran, because it was initially created with it.
This is the truth of acknowledging the Creator, the One, the Supreme, and offering worship to Him alone.
Similarly, every creature in the entire universe glorifies and praises Him at all times.
The problem is that certain aspects of life on earth, some physical impulses, desires, whims and cravings may cloud human nature’s vision or force its deviation from the right path.
That is why; the Quran addresses our nature with the logic it knows, presenting to it the truth that it has overlooked.
In this way, the Quran structures human nature on the basis of its right code for living, leading it to earn the pleasure of Allah, the Supreme Creator who controls everything.
Surah 31 provides an example of how the Quran addresses the human hearts.
It tackles the question of faith among the idolaters who had deviated from the truth.
The faith is indeed the leading issue of Surah 31
The Quran tackles this important issue in a variety of ways and from different angles.
That the Quran uses such different means is an essential part of its method to keep our hearts on the alert.
The central issue of faith focuses in Surah 31 on the Creator’s oneness.
Surah 31 demonstrates how we:
1) Should address worship to Him alone,
2) Express gratitude for His blessings,
3) Establish firm belief in the hereafter and what this involves of careful reckoning and just reward. The hereafter or the Afterlife is but one of two either hell or Paradise.
Therefore, Believers should also follow what Allah has revealed and abandon all notions that are at inconsistency with this.
Surah 31 presents this whole issue in a way that invites reflection on the astonishing approach of the Quran. It addresses our natures and our hearts.
All who advocate faith should study this Quranic approach carefully.
