God Wants You to Know

God Wants You to Know the Truth

The verse (3:66) of Surah Al-Imran highlights a significant lesson for humanity about the importance of seeking knowledge and avoiding baseless arguments. The verse addresses those who engage in disputes without proper understanding or evidence. It reminds people not to argue over matters they do not fully comprehend, as such actions can lead to confusion and misguidance. God wants you to know that true knowledge comes only from Him, and humans should remain humble in their understanding.  

The verse refers to a situation where people argued about religious matters they were not fully aware of. It asks a simple yet profound question: Why do you debate over things you have no knowledge of? Such disputes often stem from pride, ego, or the desire to dominate others in discussions. However, these arguments are not beneficial and distract from the actual pursuit of truth and wisdom.  

This verse serves as a reminder that God knows everything, including the unseen and the hidden. Human knowledge, no matter how advanced, is limited. We should acknowledge this limitation and focus on learning with sincerity and humility. God wants you to know that He is the ultimate source of all wisdom, and it is better to seek guidance from Him rather than rely solely on our limited understanding.  

By reflecting on this verse, we are encouraged to engage in meaningful learning and avoid unnecessary disputes. It teaches us to trust in God’s knowledge and to act with humility in all aspects of life. True wisdom lies in accepting our limitations and seeking answers through faith, understanding, and the divine guidance of Allah.  

Verse no 67

Maa kaana Ibraaheemu Yahoodiyyanw wa laa Nasraa niyyanw wa laakin kaana Haneefam Muslimanw wa maa kaana minal mushrikeen

Abraham was neither a Jew nor a Christian, but he was upright who had submitted (to the will of God), and he was not one of the polytheists.

Abraham, a central figure in religious history, was neither a Jew nor a Christian. He lived long before these faiths came into existence. God wants you to know that Abraham was a man of unwavering faith and righteousness. He submitted entirely to the will of God, following His guidance without associating any partners with Him. This act of submission defines his true legacy.

The verse highlights that Abraham was a monotheist who worshipped only one God. He did not belong to any specific religious group but followed a pure path of devotion. His life was a testimony to the importance of complete reliance on and obedience to the Creator. He was an example of sincerity and dedication, setting a standard for believers.

God emphasizes through this verse that Abraham was not a polytheist. He rejected all forms of idolatry and worshipped God alone. His example teaches us the significance of staying away from practices that deviate from true monotheism. Abraham's faith reminds us that true submission to God transcends labels and affiliations.

This message is crucial for everyone, as it calls people to reflect on their beliefs and actions. Abraham’s story serves as a guiding light for all who seek to understand their relationship with God. God wants you to know that following Abraham’s path of devotion and submission brings us closer to Him, fostering a life of peace and purpose.

Verse no 68

Innaa awlan naasi bi Ibraaheema lallazeenat taba oohu wa haazan nabiyyu wallazeena aamanoo; wallaahu waliyyul mu mineen

The people nearest to Abraham are surely those who followed him (in the days of his prophethood) and this Prophet and those who believe (in him). Indeed, Allah is the Patron of the believers.

God wants you to know that the people closest to the Prophet Abraham are those who truly followed him during his time and those who now believe in this Prophet, Muhammad (peace be upon him), and his message. Abraham was known for his unwavering faith and obedience to Allah, and those who walk on the same path of truth and submission are considered his rightful followers.

This verse highlights that faith and righteousness, not mere ancestry or lineage, determine one's connection to Abraham. It serves as a reminder that the bond of belief transcends family ties and historical claims. Those who genuinely follow the teachings of Allah and His messengers are the ones who inherit Abraham’s spiritual legacy.

In addition, the verse emphasizes that Allah is the guardian and protector of the believers. He takes care of those who place their trust in Him, guiding them through their faith and granting them His blessings. It reassures believers that their relationship with Allah is direct and based on their faith and actions, not on worldly affiliations or titles.

Through this verse, God wants you to know the importance of aligning your life with the teachings of faith and truth. It reminds us to focus on our actions and beliefs, striving to be among the sincere followers of Abraham and Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). In doing so, believers can strengthen their connection with Allah, who always watches over and supports those who are true to Him.

Verse no 69

Waddat taaa ifatum min Ahlil Kitaabi law yudil loonakum wa maa yudilloona illaaa anfusahum wa maa yash'uroon

(Believers!) A section of the people of the Scripture would fain lead you astray, but it is only the people like themselves that they lead astray, only they perceive not.

God Wants You to Know that there are always those who try to misguide others, but often they are unaware of their own misguidance. This verse from Surah Al Imran (3:69) speaks about a group from the People of the Scripture, who attempt to lead believers away from the truth. However, in their effort to deceive others, they end up deceiving themselves, though they fail to realise it.

The verse reminds believers to remain cautious and steadfast in their faith. It highlights the importance of seeking guidance from Allah alone and not being swayed by the actions or words of those who lack clarity themselves. Sometimes, individuals or groups might appear knowledgeable, yet their intentions are misguided, leading them and others astray. This verse warns believers to discern truth from falsehood.

Moreover, God Wants You to Know that true guidance comes from Him, and those who sincerely seek it will not be led astray by others. The verse serves as a reminder that every person is responsible for their own faith and actions. By staying rooted in the teachings of the Qur'an and the example of the Prophet (peace be upon him), believers can protect themselves from falling into error.

Finally, this verse teaches us about the nature of human behaviour. Many times, people act out of ignorance or arrogance, thinking they are leading others while they themselves are lost. This profound wisdom encourages us to be mindful of who we follow and to always rely on Allah for the ultimate guidance. God Wants You to Know that true success lies in His path.

Verse no 70

Yaaa Ahlal Kitaabi lima takfuroona bi Aayaatil laahi wan antum. tashadoon

O people of the Scripture! Why do you deny the revelations of Allah while you are witnessing (their truth)?

God wants you to know that He has sent down guidance for all of humanity through His revelations. In Surah Al Imran, verse 70 of the Qur’an, Allah addresses the People of the Scripture – those who were given earlier divine books. He questions why they reject the truth of His messages despite having knowledge and evidence of their authenticity. This verse highlights a call to reflect and acknowledge the signs of Allah in their lives.

The People of the Scripture, such as the followers of earlier prophets, were blessed with knowledge and understanding of Allah’s commands. They were witnesses to prophecies and signs that aligned with the truth of the Qur’an and the final messenger, Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). However, some of them denied these revelations, even when they saw clear evidence, choosing instead to follow their desires or traditions.

This verse serves as a reminder for everyone to seek truth with an open heart and mind. God wants you to know that rejecting divine guidance is a loss for one’s soul. It encourages self-reflection and sincerity in recognizing the truth, rather than clinging to arrogance or worldly attachments. The revelations are not meant to harm or divide, but to guide and unite people under the worship of the One true God.

In essence, the verse calls for humility and submission to Allah’s will. It urges people to ponder over the signs around them and to embrace the truth when it becomes clear. God wants you to know that His guidance is a mercy and a path to eternal success for those who accept it with faith and understanding.
