ভূমিকা

"Say: ' I am forbidden to worship those whom you call besides Allah Say: 'I do not follow your low desires, for then indeed I should have gone astray and I will not be of the (rightly) guided." The undue desires, from anybody they are issued, should be explicitly responded with a negative answer. The sources of the Prophet’s (S) determinations are Divine revelation. Acquaintance from infidelity is a part of Islam. Polytheistic belief is the root of sensual desires.

"Say: "Verily I am (relying) to clear proof from my Lord, while you belied it; I have not with me that (chastisement) which you hasten, for the Judgment is only Allah’s ; Who declares the truth and He is the best of deciders '." The Arabic term /bayyinah/ (clear proof), mentioned in the verse, is derived from /baynunah/ (separation). It is so called for the reason that it clearly and completely separates between right and wrong.

Pagans said that if it was true, why the divine chastisement was not sent down upon them. This expression is a similar meaning to the content of another verse where they said if He was right, He should send down stones upon them. Here is the verse: "... if this is the truth from You, then rain upon us stones from heaven or inflict on us a painful punishment." (Surah Al -Anfal. No. 8 Verse 32) The proofs and miracles of prophets had neither heaviness nor ambiguity.

Everybody could understand them, and, if those people were not stubborn they would heartily accept them.
