Ushbu keng dunyoqarashdan mo'min yangi me'yorlar va mezonlarni oladi: narsalarni, voqealarni, odamlarni, tashvishlarni, qadriyatlar va maqsadlarni baholash uchun. U koinotdagi haqiqiy o'rnini va bu hayotdagi vazifasini anglaydi. U o'zini Allohning irodasi namoyon bo'lishi sifatida ko'radi, Uning belgilagan har qanday yakuniga erishish uchun O'zi uni yo'lga qo'yadi. Shunday qilib, mo'min yer yuzidagi hayotini aniq ko'rish, qat'iy qadam va tinch vijdon bilan davom ettiradi.
Bu bilim mo'minlarga xotirjamlik, ishonch va atrofda, shu jumladan o'zlariga yuz berayotgan narsalardan zavq tuyg'usini beradi. Ularning savollariga haqiqiy javoblari bor: ular qayerdan kelgan va nima uchun? Qayerga ketmoqdalar va u yerda nimani topadilar? Ular bilishadiki, bu hayotda ularning aniq maqsadi bor va ularga yuz beradigan har bir narsa shu maqsadga erishishga xizmat qiladi. Ular bilishadiki, bu hayot keyingi hayot uchun sinov maydonidir; qilgan har bir amali, katta yoki kichik, uchun ular mukofotlanadilar va ular behuda yaratilmaganlar, tashlab qo'yilmasliklari yoki yolg'iz sayohat qilishga qoldirilmasliklari kerak.
From this broad vision a believer derives new standards and criteria to evaluate things, events, people, concerns, values and goals. He recognizes his true role in the universe and his task in this life. He looks at himself as a manifestation of Gods will who sets him on his course to bring about whatever end He has determined. Thus, a believer continues his life on earth with clear vision, steady step and easy conscience. This knowledge gives believers what they feel of serenity, reassurance and delight with what takes place around them, including what happens to them. They have true answers to their questions: Where have they come from, and why? Where are they going, and what will they find there? They know that they are in this life for a particular purpose, and that whatever happens to them serves to bring about that purpose. They know that this life is the testing ground for the life to come; that they will be requited for every action they do, major or minor, and that they have not been created in vain, will not be abandoned or left to travel alone.
Bunday bilimga ega bo‘lganimizda, barcha tashvishlar, shubhalar va xavfsizlik hissizligi yo‘qoladi. Axir, bularning barchasi ularni ifodalayotgan yoki boshdan kechirayotganlarning o‘z kelib chiqishimiz va taqdirimizdan bexabarligi, yo‘limizda nima kutayotganidan bexabarligi hamda hayotimiz va umr yo‘limizning maqsadiga ishonchsizligi tufaylidir. Endi bizda Umar Xayyom tasvirlagan kabi his-tuyg‘ular bo‘lmaydi, u shunday deydi:
When we have such knowledge, all worries, doubts and feelings of insecurity disappear. After all, they are due to ignorance, on the part of those expressing or experiencing them, of our origin and destiny, unawareness of what lies ahead in our way, and lack of trust in the purpose behind our existence and life journey. We will have no more feelings like those described by (Umar al-Khayyam who says:
Bu olamga qanday va nima uchun kelganimni bilmayman, Xuddi istar-istamas oqib kelgan suvdek kelganman; Va bu olamdan xuddi cho'l bo'ylab esgan shamoldek chiqib ketaman, Qayoqqa borishimni bilmayman, xuddi istar-istamas esganidek.
Into this universe and why not knowing Nor, whence, like willy-nilly flowing; And out of it as wind along the waste, I know not wither, willy-nilly blowing.
Mo'minlar hayot libosini Xudoning irodasi bilan kiyib olganlarini bilishadi, Xudo esa olamni boshqarib, uning barcha ishlarini hikmat va bilim bilan tadbir qilishini ham bilishadi. Shuningdek, ular o'zlarini bu libosni kiydirgan qo'l o'zlaridan ancha dono va mehribon ekanini ham bilishadi. Shu sababli boshqalardan maslahat so'rashning hojati yo'q, chunki ular hamma narsani biladigan va hammasini ko'radigan o'sha qo'l egasining fikriga o'xshash to'g'ri fikr bera olmaydilar. Ular bu hayot libosini olamdagi ma'lum bir vazifani bajarish uchun kiyganlarini bilishadi: ular olamdagi barcha narsalardan ta'sirlanadilar va o'zlari ham ularga ta'sir ko'rsatadilar. Bu vazifa hayotning boshidan oxirigacha yaratilgan boshqa barcha mavjudotlarga berilgan vazifalar bilan uyg'un bo'ladi.
Believers know that they wear the garment of life by Gods will, and that God runs the universe, conducting all its affairs, with wisdom and knowledge. They also know that the hand that made them wear this garment is much wiser and more compassionate than they. Hence, there is no need to consult others, because they could not give a sound opinion like that which belongs to the Owner of that hand who knows all and sees all. They know that they are given this garment of life to wear in order to fulfil a certain role in the universe, being influenced by, and leaving their own influence on all things in it. This role is harmonious with all the other roles assigned to all other creatures from the beginning of life to its end.
Shunday qilib, mo'minlar bu hayotga nima uchun kelganliklarini va qayerga ketayotganliklarini bilishadi. Ular haqiqatni anglashga intilar ekan, hech qanday yo'qotishni his qilmaydilar. Ular ishonch va xotirjamlik bilan o'z yo'llarini bosib o'tadilar va o'z vazifalarini ado etadilar. Hatto ular shunday yuksak iymon darajasiga erishishlari mumkinki, bu ularga yo'llarini davom ettirish va vazifalarini quvonch va baxt bilan bajarish, Alloh ularga ato etgan buyuk ne'matni his qilish imkonini beradi. Bu hayotning ne'mati yoki uning libosi bo'lib, uni eng saxiy va eng mehribon bo'lgan Xudo ularga bergan. Bu ularning vazifalarining ne'matidir, ular qanday qiyinchiliklarga duch kelishlaridan qat'i nazar, Rabblariga qaytguncha shu vazifani ado etadilar.
Thus believers know why they have come to this life and to where they are heading. They do not experience any loss as they try to understand. They complete their journey, fulfilling their role, with trust and reassurance. They may even attain a higher degree of faith that enables them to carry on with their journey and the fulfilment of their role, with delight and happiness, feeling the great bounty God has given them. This is the bounty of life, or its garment, given to them by God, the most generous, the compassionate. This is the bounty of their role, which they fulfil regardless of what they may encounter of hardship, until they return to their Lord.
Xuddi shunday, men o‘zim yo‘qotish va tashvish davrida boshdan kechirgan his-tuyg‘ular ham yo‘qoladi. Bu “Qur’on soyasida” yashay boshlashimdan oldin edi, o‘shanda Alloh meni qo‘limdan ushlab, o‘zining muborak himoyasi ostiga oldi. Charchagan qalbim o‘sha paytda butun koinotga ulashgan bu his-tuyg‘ularni men she’r orqali ifodalab, shunday degan edim:
Similarly, feelings like those I myself experienced during a period of loss and worry also disappear. That was before I began to live ‘In the Shade of the Qur’an, when God took me by the hand and placed me under His blessed care. These were feelings that my tired soul imparted at the time to the entire universe and I expressed those feelings in poetry saying:
Koinot nima qilishni, qayoqqa va nima uchun, agar umuman borishi kerak bo'lsa, qayerga borishini bilmay, turib qoldi; Bu hammasi behuda, bolalar o'yini va maqsadsiz harakat; Va u hech qanday qoniqish bermaydigan niqoblangan taqdirga duch keladi.
The universe stood there, not knowing which way it should go; And why, and where, if at all, it should go; It is all a waste, a child’s play, and an aimless effort; And it ends up in a masked destiny that gives no satisfaction.
Bugun esa, Allohning inoyati bilan, bekor ketadigan har qanday harakat yoki behuda sa'y-harakat yo'qligini bilaman, chunki har bir amal va har bir sa'y-harakatning o'z mevasi bo'ladi va o'z mukofotini topadi. Xuddi shu taqdir katta rozilik ham beradi, chunki u eng adolatli, eng rahmli Zotga topshirilgan.
Today, however, I know that, by God’s grace, there is no aimless effort or wasted action, because every action and every effort will have its fruits and gain its reward. That same destiny will also give great satisfaction, because it is left to the One who is most just, most merciful.
Men bugun ham, Allohning inoyati bilan, koinot hech qachon o'sha ayanchli holatda turmasligini his qilaman, chunki koinotning ruhi o'z Rabbiga ishonadi, Unga tasbeh va hamd bilan yuzlanadi. Koinot Alloh unga belgilagan qonunga muvofiq, itoatkor, rozi va bo'ysunuvchi holda harakat qiladi.
I also feel today, by the grace of God, that the universe never stands in that miserable position, because the soul of the universe believes in its Lord, turns to Him in glorification and praise. The universe operates in accordance with the law God has set for it, obedient, contented and submissive.
Bu his-tuyg'u va fikr olamida, tana va aql olamida, shuningdek amal va o'zaro ta'sir olamida ulkan foydadir.
This is a great gain in the realm of feeling and thought, in the physical world of body and mind, as well as in the practical world of action and mutual influence.
Bundan tashqari, iymon buyuk harakatlantiruvchi kuchdir. U inson qalbiga joylashganda, ishlay boshlaydi, o'zini namoyon qiladi va uning ichki holati bilan tashqi xatti-harakati o'rtasida mukammal uyg'unlik yaratadi. U insondagi barcha intilishlarni o'z nazoratiga oladi va ularni o'z yo'nalishida harakatga keltiradi. Iymonning inson ruhidagi kuchi va iymon orqali qo'lga kiritiladigan qudrat sirri ana shunda. Bu sir iymonning dunyoda erishgan va har kuni erishishda davom etayotgan mo'jizalarining zamirida yotadi: kun sayin hayotning butun qiyofasini o'zgartiradigan mo'jizalar. Aynan iymon yakka shaxsni ham, jamoani ham buyuk va abadiy keyingi hayotda muvaffaqiyatga erishish uchun dunyoviy hayotini qurbon qilishga undaydi. Bundan tashqari, iymon oz yordamga yoki hech qanday yordamga ega bo'lmagan oddiy insonga zulm kuchlariga, vasvasaga va ta'qibga qarshi turish imkonini beradi. Yagona mo'minning qalbidagi iymonning harakatlantiruvchi kuchi bilan yuzlashganda, bu kuchlarning barchasi osongina yengiladi. Bu kuchlar ustidan muvaffaqiyatga erishayotgan narsa yakka shaxs emas, balki kuchli oqib turgan va tugamas bulog'ga o'xshash iymon ruhidan kelib chiqadigan buyuk qudratdir.
Besides, faith is a great motivating force. When it is settled in a person’s heart, it begins to work, fulfil itself and bring about perfect harmony between its inner image and its appearance. It takes control over all human motivations and harnesses them along the way. This is the secret of the strength of faith in the human soul and the power one gains through faith. It is the secret underlying the miracles faith has achieved in this world, and continues to achieve every day: miracles that change the whole appearance of life from one day to another. It is faith that motivates both the individual and the community to sacrifice their lives on earth in order to gain success in the greater and everlasting life to come. Furthermore, it is faith that gives an ordinary individual, with little or no support, the means to stand up to oppressive forces and to both temptation and persecution. All these forces are easily vanquished when they face the motivating power of faith in the heart of a single believer. It is not the individual that achieves success over all these forces; it is the great power that derives from the spirit of faith which is akin to a powerfully flowing and inexhaustible spring.
Imon orqali shaxs va jamiyat hayotida erishilgan mo‘jizalar sirli afsonaga, tushga yoki xurofotga asoslanmaydi.
The miracles achieved through faith in the life of the individual and the community do not rely on mysterious myth, vision or superstition.
Balki, ular aniq sabablar va mustahkam o'rnatilgan qonunlarning natijasidir. Iymon yaxlit narsadir: u insonni koinotdagi ko'rinadigan va yashirin kuchlar bilan bog'lovchi kuch bo'lib, uning qalbiga ishonch va xotirjamlik baxsh etadi. Shuningdek, u mo'min kishiga dunyoviy kuchlar va vaziyatlarga g'alaba qozonishiga ishongan kishining kuchi bilan, Allohning yordamiga tayangan holda qarshi turish qobiliyatini beradi. U har bir mo'min shaxsga boshqa odamlar, voqealar va vaziyatlar bilan munosabatlarini aniq ko'rsatib, unga yo'nalishini, yo'lini va maqsadini belgilab beradi. U insonning barcha kuch-qudratini va imkoniyatlarini yagona aniq maqsadga yo'naltiradi, shunda u unga kuch, ishonch va xotirjamlik bilan intiladi.
Instead, they are the result of well-defined causes and well-established rules. Faith is holistic: it is the force that establishes the relationship between man and the apparent and subtle forces in the universe, giving his soul trust and reassurance. It also gives the believer the ability to confront worldly powers and situations with the strength of one who is certain of victory, trusting to Gods help. It makes it clear to the individual believer his relations with other people, events and situations, outlining for him his direction, way and goal. It harnesses all his strengths and potentials to direct them all to a clear goal, so that he moves towards it with force, confidence and reassurance.
Imon ikki barobar kuchli bo‘lishining sababi shundaki, u koinot o‘zining chuqur va sirtqi qismlarida amal qiladigan yo‘nalish bilan bir chiziqda harakat qiladi. Darhaqiqat, koinotda ishlaydigan barcha kuchlar imon belgilagan yo‘nalishga amal qiladi.
What makes faith doubly powerful is that it operates along the same line that the universe follows in its deep and surface parts. Indeed, all the powers that work in the universe follow a direction set by faith.
Shunday qilib, mo''minlar o''z yo''llarida harakat qilar ekan, haqiqatning botil ustidan g''alabasi uchun buyuk yurishlarida bu kuchlarga duch keladilar, botil qanchalik qudratli ko''rinmasin.
Thus, as they move along their way, believers meet these powers in their great march to give the truth its victory over falsehood, no matter how powerful the latter may appear.
Albatta, Alloh haqiqatni aytadi, U shunday deydi: «Ular Islomni qabul qilishlari bilan sizga ulkan yaxshilik qilgan bo‘lib hisoblashadi. Ayting: Islomni qabul qilganingizni menga yaxshilik deb hisoblamang. Agar rostgo‘y bo‘lsangiz, imonga yo‘llagani uchun sizga yaxshilik qilgan zot aslida Allohdir» (17-oyat). Darhaqiqat, imon eng oliy ne'matdir, uni faqat saxiy Alloh o‘zi loyiq deb bilgan kishiga ato etishi mumkin.
God certainly tells the truth as He says: “ They think that they have bestowed a favour upon you by having embraced Islam. Say: Do not count your embrace of Islam a favour to me. It is indeed God who bestows a favour upon you by showing you the way to faith, if you are men of truth” (Verse 17) Indeed faith is the supreme favour that can only be granted by God the Bounteous to whomever He knows to be deserving of it.
Xudo, albatta, haqiqatni aytadi! Bu barcha haqiqatlar, ma'nolar va his-tuyg'ularni bilish baxtiga muyassar bo'lgan, ularni to'liq tatib ko'rgan va bu dunyoda ularni boshidan kechirgan kishi biror narsadan mahrum qolganini his qiladimi? Aksincha, bularning hammasidan mahrum bo'lgan kishi, garchi farovon va hashamatda yashasa ham, nimaga erishadi?
God certainly tells the truth! Does anyone who has had the privilege of knowing all these facts, meanings and feelings, experienced them to the full and lived through them in this present world ever feel that he has missed out on anything? Conversely, what does the one who misses out on all these gain, even though he may live in comfort and luxury?
U, istagancha yeyishi mumkin, lekin hayvonlar ham yeydi. Garchi hayvonlar yaxshiroq ahvolda bo'lsalar ham, chunki ular o'z tabiatlariga ko'ra Robbilariga bo'ysunadilar va Yaratuvchilariga yuz tutadilar.
He may eat as he pleases, but animals also eat, although animals are better off because by their nature they submit to their Lord and turn towards their Creator.
Albatta, Alloh osmonlar va yerdagi g'aybni biladi; Alloh qilayotgan barcha ishlaringizni ko'radi. (18-oyat)
God certainly knows the hidden reality of the heavens and the earth; and God sees all that you do. (Verse 18)
Osmonlarda va yerda yashiringan narsalarni bilguvchi Zot, odamlarning ichki qalblarida yashiringan narsalarni ham biladi. U odamlarning his-tuyg'ularini biladi va ular qilayotgan ishlarni ko'radi. U Oʻz bilimini odamlar aytayotgan so'zlardan emas, balki ularning qalblarida saqlayotgan his-tuyg'ulari va bu his-tuyg'ularni tasdiqlovchi amallaridan oladi.
The One who knows all that is hidden in the heavens and the earth also knows what is hidden in people’s innermost souls. He knows people s feelings and sees what they do. He does not derive His knowledge from the words they say, but from the feelings they harbour in their hearts and the actions that confirm their feelings.
Shu tariqa biz ushbu surahning xulosasiga yetib keldik. Surah 18 ohatdan iborat bo'lib, u olijanob va pok dunyoning xususiyatlarini bayon etadi, buyuk haqiqatlarni ochib beradi va ularni insonlarning ichki vijdonlarida mustahkamlaydi.
Thus we come to the conclusion of this surah, comprising 18 verses, but delineating the features of a noble and pure world, outlining great truths and establishing them in peoples inner consciences.
