Chapter 6 of the Quran (111) Genuine vs.Today Torah

The genuine Torah is a mercy that absolves the one who believes in Allah from His torment, that the Children of Israel might believe in in the encounter with their Lord, through the Resurrection after death and in the Afterlife.  In today Torah, there is no reference for resurrection after death and in the Afterlife

——————————————————————————————————

Ayah 6:153 says:

And that Allah has charged you with is the religion (of worshipping only One True God who has no partner, wife, son, daughter etc.) that is Allah’ straight path, so follow it.

And do not follow other ways or paths opposed to it, lest it separate you and make you astray, away from His religion and His straight path

This is what Allah has ordained for you,

§  That perhaps you will be God-fearing’.

§  That you may ward off evil,

§  That you may ward off these different ways.

It should be emphasized that Allah has commanded His entire messengers to convey this message to their people.

Noah, Hud, Saleh, Abraham, Lot, Shu’aib, Moses, David, Solomon, Elias, Jonah, Jesus, delivered this message to their people; and Muhammad is conveying this message to the entire mankind.

Back to Allah’s messenger, Moses, Ayah 154 says:

Also, Allah gave the Scripture, the Torah unto Moses; it was complete with command and prohibitions, promises and threats, reward and punishment for him who would do good acts.

It is also said that this means: for him who follows the excellence of Moses and the conveyance of the message of his Lord,

In Torah, there was an explanation of all things needed for religion and describing the lawful and the unlawful.

The Torah was (guidance from error and) a mercy that absolves the one who believes in Allah from His torment, that the Children of Israel might believe in the meeting with their Lord and that they might believe in resurrection after death and in the Afterlife.

All of the above is about the genuine Torah that is inspired by Allah unto Moses.

In today Torah, there is no mention for resurrection after death and in the Afterlife

Chapter 6 of the Quran (34) how to understand Allah’s Plan

The chief wealthy unbelievers of Mecca said to Muhammad: Were those, weak, poor and needy, the ones whom Allah has favoured from among us with guidance? The Quran says: Allah loves the faithful believers, and He does not love the proud arrogant wealthy strong unbelievers.

—————————————————————————————————-

 

In the previous article, the chief wealthy strong unbelievers of Mecca were too proud to ask the Prophet Muhammad to repel the weak, poor and needy Muslims; they said to him:

‘We were among the prosperouss of our people and we dislike those people. So could you repel them when we sit with you?’

Not only that but they continued: ‘We will not be pleased until you write an agreement between us to repel those people when we sit with you’.

 

The Prophet Muhammad wanted to do this, because of his desire that the unbelievers become Muslims.  But, Allah command ed him not to repel those weak, poor and needy Muslims and said: If you repel them you will be of the unjust and of the evildoers.

 

Then, Ayah 6:53 says:

It is Allah’s plan to try some of them by others. Allah is testing the prosperous one by the commoner.

  • It is Allah’s plan to try the rich man by the poor man.
  • It is Allah’s plan to try the strong man by the weak man.
  • It is Allah’s plan to try the fortunate man by the deprived man.
  • It is Allah’s plan to try the proud famous man by the lowly man.

Allah is not interested in our power or money but He is rather interested in the faith inside our heart.

 

The prosperous wealthy ones may say, in disavowal: ‘Were those, weak, poor and needy, the ones whom Allah has favoured from among us with guidance? If what they follow is true guidance, they would not have preceded us in attaining it.

 

It should be emphasized that one of those weak, poor and needy believers was Bilal, the salve black Ethiopean believers.

 

Allah, exalted be He, says:

Is Allah not best awwere of those who were thankful to Him to guide them? Indeed He is.

Is not Allah best awwere of the thanksgivers of the believers, those who deserve such favour of guidance? Indeed He is.

Allah loves the faithful weak, poor and needy believers, and , 

Allah does not love the proud arrogant wealthy strong unbelievers

The verses 6:52 in different translations

 

QARIB:

As such we have made some of them a means for testing others, so that they should say: ‘were those whom Allah favors amongst us? ‘But does not Allah best know the thankful?

 

SHAKIR:

And thus do we try some of them by others so that they say: were these they upon whom Allah has conferred benefit from among us? Does not Allah best know the grateful?

 

PICKTHAL:

And even so do we try some of them by others that they say: were these they whom Allah favoureth among us? is not Allah best awwere of the thanksgivers?

 

YUSUFALI:

Thus did we try some of them by comparison with others that they should say: “is it these then that Allah hath favoured from amongst us?” doth not Allah know best those who were grateful?
