…the ink would not suffice to write down all of God’s words. The Quran expresses it thus: “If all the trees on earth were pens, and the sea [were] ink, with seven [more] seas added to it, the words of God would not be exhausted.” (31:27)

This is not simply a statement but a command by God Almighty to be followed by believers. This means that believers ought to discover the words of God and thus continue discovering God’s wonders and increasing their realization of God. The first verse of the Quran, “Praise be to God, the Lord of the Universe,” (1:2) is the beginning and not the end. This verse announces the beginning of the journey of realization in this world. At another place this verse appears with reference to the world Hereafter: “It will be said, ‘Praise be to God, Lord of the Universe.’” (39:75)

This second verse tells us the ultimate stage of God-realization, which will continue for all eternity in the most favourable environment of the Hereafter.

Control Over the Universe

The words of the 2nd verse of the Quran: “Praise be to God, the Lord of the Universe (1:2)” are in actual fact, a person’s spontaneous utterance when he observes the universe. Telescopic observation tells us that the universe is, to an unimaginable extent, vast and majestic. Moreover, microscopic studies tell us that the unobservable universe is as majestic as the observable universe. In spite of all progress made by humanity, man has not yet succeeded in apprehending either the vastness or the grandeur of the universe.

This vast and unfathomable universe is continuously in motion. At every moment, extremely meaningful events are taking place. Further study tells us that this vast universe is totally faultless. The universe can continually remain in a…

The Importance of Gratitude

The very first verse of the Quran reads: “All praise is due to God, the Lord of the Universe.” (1:2)

This verse shows the importance of gratitude. The truth is that of all the acts of Islam, gratitude is the only act which a person can perform in its highest ideal form. But for various reasons in other spheres such as worship, ethics,…

The person who discovers this reality will, in a very natural way, respond to it in a manner that reflects these words of the very first chapter of the Quran:

“All praise is due to God, the Lord of the Universe” (1:2)

These words express gratefulness to that Almighty Being who is the Sustainer of all the worlds and the One who compensates for all the limitations of human beings. This acknowledgement can produce a veritable revolution inside a person if…

When the realization that God is All-Powerful, the Giver, while man is only a taker becomes articulate, it is described as the glorification of the Lord.

The Quran has repeatedly urged man to glorify God. There are other similar synonymous words used in the Quran such as praise (1:2), glorify (30:17), revere (tahmid, tamjid, taqdis), etc. We can sum up all these words as acknowledgement. What is called acknowledgement in relation to man, is called glorification in relation to God, that is to say, man’s expressions of God’s glory and majesty.

The relation between God and man is that of Giver and Taker. A servant has nothing to give to God. The only thing he can offer God is to discover God as the Lord of the worlds, as the All-Powerful Being. Realization is the name of this…

When man has an ocean of gratitude for God’s innumerable blessings, he spontaneously utters words of praise in universal acknowledgement. This is true Alhamd-o-lillah.

The second verse of the Quran is, “Praise be to God, the Lord of the Universe.” (1:2) These are words which it takes but a moment to repeat. But if these words have to express true realization of God, their significance is so great that nothing can be greater. That is why, there is a Hadith which has this to say: “Alham du Lillah, fills up man’s balance (of good deeds) or scale of action.” (Sahih Muslim, Hadith No. 223)

When one thinks that the universe came into being fifteen billion years ago, and that it is still expanding, one finds this extremely frightening. Then, when man thinks about his own creation, he finds that his existence is a miracle, no…

…him a continuous supply of oxygen through the air. The earth gives him a variety of produce. It also gives him stability through the force of gravity. In fact, a complete life support system has been established for his special benefit.

Thinking upon these things man feels that he owes oceans of gratitude to God. It is as if his soul has been engulfed by a huge divine storm, which has had a thrilling effect upon his mind. When man experiences these indescribably godly feelings, he spontaneously utters words of praise in universal acknowledgement. This is true gratitude to God. It is these feelings of praise to God which have been expressed thus in the Quran: “Praise be to God, the Lord of the Universe.” (1:2)

…a famous Bengali writer, was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1913. He wrote in one of his poems: “The whole life was spent in setting the strings of the Sitar, but I could not ultimately sing the song that I wanted to sing.”

Tagore said this in his particular poetic way. But this is more true of Hamd, Praise of God. When a believer discovers God, he spontaneously desires to praise God. He wants to sing the song of God’s majesty. But his time in this world comes to an end without the feeling that the glory of God has been extolled. The Quran urges the believer to say: “Praise be to God, the Lord of the universe.” The Quran (1:2) tells us that this Hamd (Praise) will again be expressed in the Hereafter. What is the difference between the two? In fact, in this world a believer, due to his limitations, can engage only in the initial Hamd. In the unlimited world of God, a believer will have the opportunity to express the ultimate Hamd of God. In present times, people are busy talking of their beloved personalities and other worldly subjects. In the Hereafter, only God and His glory will be talked about. It will be an ongoing discussion which will continue eternally with fresh aspects each time. It will never come to an end. At that time, a believer will feel that the new circumstances have given him the opportunity to tell the untold story of God, and continue to do so for all eternity. The present life is like a training period for producing this spiritual capability. In the Hereafter, he will be given the capacity to engage in unlimited Hamd (praise) of God. This is undoubtedly a manifestation of the greatest grace of God. This blessing will be given only to those who in their lives before death have proved their capability for this.

In the very first chapter of the Quran, Al-Fatihah (The Opening), the concept of universal brotherhood is highlighted. The translation of the relevant verse is as follows:

All praise is due to God, the Lord of the Universe. (1:2)

According to this Quranic verse, God is not the God of some community or group, He is the God of all mankind. He alone is the Creator; He alone is the Sustainer; He alone is the Lord of the Universe.

There are 114 chapters in the Quran, some long and some short. The opening chapter, Al-Fatihah (The Opening), which serves as a preface to the Quran, comprises of only six short verses. The translation of this chapter is as follows:

All praise is due to God, the Lord of the Universe; the Beneficent, the Merciful; Lord of the Day of Judgement. You alone we worship, and to You alone we turn for help. Guide us to the straight path: the path of those You have blessed; not of those who have incurred Your wrath, nor of those who have gone astray. (1:1-6)

The first verse of this chapter is: “All praise is due to God, the Lord of the Universe.” This is the gist of the Quran. The basic message of the Quran is that man must be grateful to God, man must acknowledge God Almighty. Man must adopt…

…it. Human societies consist of both the educated and the uneducated, so it is but natural that God Almighty should send a book that would be both accessible and meaningful to both categories of people. Take the first verse of the Quran:

“All praise is due to God, the Lord of the Universe.” (1:2)

This verse provides intellectual food for the common man as well as for those who have acquired great learning. Both can find spiritual nourishment in this Quranic verse.

…the Quran tells us what the gist of the Quran is. All other parts of the Quran are only details of this first verse either directly or indirectly. It is the first verse of the chapter Al-Fatiha. The translation of this verse is like this:

All praise is due to God, the Lord of the Universe (1:2)

Here the Quranic word used for praise is hamd. Hamd is a very comprehensive word in the Arabic language. It includes praise, gratefulness, and acknowledgment with a sense of awe. According to the Quran, hamd is a universal culture. All the…

The Quran deals with almost all the issues related to mankind. Its language is very simple. Its clarity is par excellence. The first two verses of the first chapter are like this:

All praise is due to God, the Lord of the Universe, the Beneficent, the Merciful. (1:1-2)

These two verses represent the gist of the Quranic message. It means that man should acknowledge God as the Creator, as the Sustainer, and as compassionate to all His Creatures. This is the beginning of divine knowledge. This determines…

There are 114 chapters in the Quran, some long and some short. The first verse of the first chapter reads:

All praise is due to God, the Lord of the Universe. (1:2)

The last chapter of the Quran is An-Nas (People). This chapter is said to be the chapter of tawuzz. Tawuzz means to seek refuge in the Lord. The verses of this chapter are as follows:

…حدیث قدسی کو دوسرے قرآنی حوالوں کے ساتھ ملا کرغور کیا جائے تو یہ ٹیک اوے ملتا ہے— رمضان قرآن کا مہینہ ہے(2:185)۔ قرآن تدبر وتفکر کی کتاب (book of contemplation) ہے( 39:29)۔ دوسرے الفاظ میں، رمضان اسپریچول سرگرمیوں میں اضافہ کا مہینہ ہے۔

قرآن میں بسم اللہ کے بعد سب سے پہلی آیت یہ ہے:ٱلۡحَمۡدُ لِلَّہِ رَبِّ ٱلۡعَٰلَمِینَ (1:2) ۔ یعنی، سب تعریف اللہ کے لیے ہے جو سارے جہان کا مالک ہے۔ یہ آیت قرآن کا خلاصہ ہے۔ اس کا مطلب یہ ہے کہ قرآنی ہدایت کی روشنی میں اللہ کی نعمتوں پر غور و فکرکرنا،اور زیادہ سے زیادہ کوشش کرکے اللہ کے شکر میں جینے والا بننا۔

اس لحاظ سے حدیث قدسی پر غور کیا جائے تو اس کا یہ مفہوم نکلتا ہے کہ رمضان غوروفکر کا مہینہ (month of contemplation) ہے۔ رمضان میں روزہ رکھنے کا مقصد یہ ہے کہ انسان اپنی فزیکل سرگرمی کو کم کرےاور انٹلیکچول سرگرمی کو بڑھائے۔ وہ اپنے خالق…

دین کا نقطۂ آغاز

قرآن کی پہلی آیت یہ ہے:الْحَمْدُ لِلَّہِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِینَ (1:2)۔ یہ آیت بتاتی ہے کہ دین کا نقطۂ آغاز اللہ رب العالمین کی دریافت پرمبنی ہے۔ یعنی اہلِ دین کو چاہیے کہ وہ سب سے پہلے اللہ رب العالمین کی معرفت حاصل کریں۔ اس کے بعد وہ دینی زندگی کی تعمیر کریں۔ اس ترتیب کو اختیار کرنے سے انسان کے اندر حقیقی معنی میں دینی شخصیت بنے گی۔ اس کے برعکس، کوئی دوسری ترتیب اختیار کی جائے تو دینی شخصیت کی تعمیر و تشکیل نہ ہوسکے گی۔

انسان کی حکومت کا جب آپ تصور کرتے ہیں، تو آپ کے ذہن میں یہ نقشہ آتا ہے کہ ایک بااقتدار صدر یا وزیر اعظم ملک کی زمامِ کار اپنے ہاتھ میں لیے ہوئے ہے، اور پورے ملک کو اپنے نقشے کے مطابق کنٹرول کررہا ہے۔

کائنات پر کنٹرول

قرآن کی پہلی آیت یہ ہے: الْحَمْدُ لِلَّہِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِینَ(1:2)۔یعنی ساری حمد اللہ رب العالمین کے لیے ہے۔ یہ دراصل وہ کلمہ ہے جو آدمی کی زبان سے اُس وقت بے اختیارانہ طورپر نکل پڑتا ہے، جب کہ وہ کائنات کا مشاہدہ کرے۔ دور بینی مشاہدہ بتاتا ہے کہ کائنات ناقابلِ قیاس حد تک وسیع اور عظیم ہے۔ دوسری طرف، خورد بینی مطالعہ بتاتاہے کہ ناقابلِ مشاہدہ کائنات بھی اتنا ہی زیادہ عظیم ہے جتنا کہ قابلِ مشاہدہ کائنات۔ ساری ترقیوں کے باوجود ابھی تک انسان نہ کائنات کی وسعتوں کا اندازہ کرسکا ہے اور نہ وہ کائنات کی عظمتوں کو دریافت کرنے میں کامیاب ہوسکا ہے۔

یہ وسیع اور عظیم کائنات مسلسل طورپر متحرک ہے۔ اس کے اندر ہر لمحہ انتہائی با معنی قسم کی سرگرمیاں (meaningful activities)جاری ہیں۔ مطالعہ مزید بتاتاہے کہ یہ اتھاہ کائنات مکمل طور پر ایک بے نقص کائنات (faultless universe) ہے۔ بے نقص حالت میں…

…کو دریافت کرلے، وہی انسان، انسان ہے۔ اس کے لیے تمام ابدی کامیابیاں مقدر ہیں۔ اس کے برعکس، جو شخص اس حقیقت کی دریافت میں ناکام رہے، وہ انسان کی صورت میں ایک حیوان ہے۔ اس کے لیے اس دنیا میں ابدی خسران (eternal loss) کے سوا اور کچھ نہیں۔

جو شخص اس حقیقت کو دریافت کرلے، فطری طور پر اس کا رسپانس (response) وہی ہوگا، جس کا ذکر قرآن کے ابتدا میں ان الفاظ میںا ٓیاہے: الْحَمْدُ لِلَّہِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِینَ (1:2)۔ یعنی اس بر تر ہستی کا شکر جو سارے عالم کا رب ہے، جو انسان کی تمام کمیوں کی تلافی کرنے والا ہے۔ یہ اعتراف انسان کے اندر وہ انقلاب پیدا کرے گاجب کہ اس کے اندر اپنے رب کے لیے حبّ شدید اور خشیت شدید پیدا ہوجائے۔ یہی وہ فرد ہے جس کو قرآن میںمومن کہا گیا ہے۔

PRAISE BE TO GOD (ALHAMD-O-LILLAH)

When man has an ocean of gratitude for God’s innumerable blessings, he spontaneously utters words of praise in universal acknowledgement. This is true Alhamd-o-lillah.

رب العالمین کا شکر

اس دنیا میں انسان کے لیے بقدر ضرورت چیزیں رکھی گئی ہیں، نہ کہ بقدر اشتہا، تو انسان اس دنیا میں کس طرح خدا کا شکر گزار بن سکتا ہے۔(مولانا عبد الباسط عمری، قطر)

مسٹر رحمان نے اِس انعام کو خدا کا فضل بتایا اور کہا:

All fame and glory is for God alone.

اِس خبر پر بات کرتے ہوئے میںنے ایک صاحب سے کہا کہ لوگ اکثر بی فیکٹر (bias factor) کی بات کرتے ہیں۔ مگر حقیقت یہ ہے کہ یہ سارا معاملہ سی فیکٹر (competence factor) کا ہے۔ اگر آپ حقیقی معنوں میں لیاقت کا ثبوت دے سکیں، تو کوئی تعصب اور امتیاز…

حمد ِ دنیا، حمدِ آخرت

قرآن کی ایک آیت یہ ہے الْحَمْدُ لِلَّہِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِینَ (1:2)۔یعنی، ساری حمد اللہ رب العالمین کے لیے ہے۔ یہ آیت دنیا کی زندگی میں اہلِ ایمان کے روز وشب کا حال بتاتی ہے۔اہلِ جنت جب آخرت میں پہنچیں گے اور جنت میں داخل کردئے جائیں گے…

…Further to this, a man and a woman are considered as ‘two halves of a whole.’ (Sunan Abi Dawood, Hadith No. 236) Another important fact is that the whole of the human race comes from Adam and Eve. Two other verses of the Quran state:

“Glory be to God, who created in pairs all things that the earth produces.” (36: 36)

“O Humanity! We created you from a single pair of a male and a female.” (49: 13)

قرآن میں بتایا گیا ہے کہ اہلِ جنت جب جنت میں داخل ہوں گے اور وہاں کے ماحول کا تجربہ کریں گے تو ان کی زبان سے نکلے گا: الحمد للہ الذی أذہب عنّا الحزن (35: 34) یعنی اُس اللہ کا شکر ہے جس نے خوف وحزن کو ہم سے دو رکردیا :

Praise be to God who has taken away all sorrow from us.

اہلِ جنت کا یہ کلمہ دراصل دریافت کا ایک کلمہ ہوگا۔ وہ جنت کی صورت میںایک نئے اور انوکھے تخلیقی کرشمہ کی دریافت کریں گے، یہ دریافت ک جو خالق کبد والی دنیا کی تخلیق کرسکتا تھا، وہ اِس طاقت کا بھی حامل تھا کہ ایک اور دنیا کی تخلیق کرے جہاں…
