This is due to the fact that the followers of Iblis -la ‘Ahlay Batil’ have been and always will be in the majority, among the people of the past, or among those who are present or those that are to come later on. Therefore, Allah -azwj has made mandatory for His ‘Wali-ul-Amr’ to be calm and tolerant. As Allah -azwj Says to His Prophet, ‘ Therefore, bear up patiently as did the messengers endowed with constancy, bear up with patience’ .
[85] This is what is expected too, from His Divine representatives (Masomeen -asws ) and their devout followers, to which Allah -azwj refers: For You O Rasool it is much better to take one step at a time’. [86] Usually, the consequences of being explicit in ‘Taqiyya’ (stop observing it) are reflected on the foundation of Deen, thus whatever you have heard so far, as an answer to your query, is sufficient for your purpose. And Allah -azwj Says: Your Rab and angels came down in rows after rows.
And also Says: Came to you one by one . [87] And Allah -azwj Says: Are they expecting angels to come to them or Your Rab or some Divine Symbols. [88] (For Him -azwj ) Everything is possible and nothing is beyond Him -azwj but it is impossible that the Elevated Rab -azwj would approach them, just like others do as being among His -azwj creations. Indeed, Allah -azwj is the Sustainer of all species.
People take different meanings from the Book, in contrary to what has been revealed at the first place. Interpretation of Words of the Lord of the Worlds, cannot be similar to the words of human beings, His -azwj actions can, by no means, be a manifestation of the human actions. I will give you an example which will be sufficient for the elaboration of this issue.
This is related to Prophet Ibrahim -as , When Ibrahim -as said: I am going towards my Lord, thus, his going towards his Lord -azwj was, in fact his act of worship, to be taken as a metaphor for his perception ‘Ijtihad’. Can’t you see its interpretation is contrary to its literal meanings? Allah -azwj Says: Eight pairs of four-legged animals were sent down [89] and also Says: We have sent down iron which is extremely hard. [90] To be used by His creation .
And Says: You may say if it were possible that my Lord had a son then I would be the first one to worship Him . [91] For the interpretation of this Verse, it is important that one should know that its intrinsic meanings are very different from its extrinsic ones.
