Worship only to Allah Almighty for giving sustenance.
One purpose God created Man and Jin and be inheritors of
the earth is simply that both these groups to worship only to Allah who has
created the heavens, the earth and the entire universe and its contents.
Humans are commanded to worship only Allah, because he
was the one who gave sustenance of man, either in the form of rainwater,
natural resources (oil, natural gas, geothermal) and whole fruits, vegetables
and healthy animals we consume, such as fish, cows, goats, sheep, chickens,
camels and a wide variety of wildlife and fauna for the preservation of nature
and human life balance.
With water (both rain water, which is already in the
ground (rivers, lakes) and seawater (can be distilled into fresh water), all
dedicated to the welfare of mankind.
With water, plants and gardens, including the barren
desert to fertile and grow wheat, corn, rice, sago, cassava, and various kinds
of fruits and vegetables.
As our gratitude to God who has given sustenance of all
that, then we are commanded by God to worship him through the pillars of Islam,
when servants who obey, Allah will give reward and promised to go to heaven is
eternal.
While they were still doing shirk (associating partners
with God) and unbelievers threatened to be thrown into hell God is also
eternal.
Core commandment of God (Al Quran and Al wisdom / hadith)
that human beings worship God must not be opposed to the power of God.
That is why assigned all prophets and Apostles, Noah just
over 950 years of preaching to convince his people to only worship God, but
only a small fraction of the Noah who follow the call of Noah so most of the
prophet Noah (including children and his wife) were sunk by God through
torrential rain that caused flash floods exceeded the highest mountain peaks.
Various doom that befell various people, ranging from the
Prophet Noah, pharaoh and many other people as is told in the Qur'an became a
lesson and a warning for humans, in order to remain in compliance with the
order of Allah and do not commit adultery (against God) and other sins, so that
we do not hit well Azab of God while we live in this world and in the
Hereafter,
Tawhid First Commandment
By
Ustadz Isma'il Abu Muslim al-Atsari
يا أيها الناس اعبدوا ربكم الذي خلقكم والذين من قبلكم لعلكم
تتقون)21( الذي جعل لكم الأرض فراشا والسماء بناء وأنزل من السماء ماء فأخرج به من
الثمرات رزقا لكم فلا تجعلوا لله أندادا وأنتم تعلمون
O people, the Worship your Lord who has created you and
those before you, that ye may be cautious. It was he who made the earth as an
overlay for you and the sky as a roof, and sent down water (rain) from the sky,
then He bring forth all the fruits as a sustenance for you; Therefore do not be
held allies for Allah, even though you know. [Al-Baqarah / 2: 21-22]
Muqaddimah
When we open the pages of the mus-haf al-Qur'ân, we will
get a first command word contained in a letter al-Baqarah verse 21 and said the
ban was first contained in a letter al-Baqarah verse 22. Therefore, these two
verses is important for us to understand it well. Here's a little explanation
about these two verses. Hope it is useful.
21st verse commentary:
Word of Allah Almighty.
يا أيها الناس
O people!
It is an appeal to all men, of all nations or tribes, in
all places and times, after the coming of Muhammad sallallaahu 'alaihi wa
sallam. It shows that the religion brought by Prophet Muhammad sallallaahu
'alaihi wa sallam addressed to all mankind. It is as the Word of Allah
Almighty:
وما أرسلناك إلا كافة للناس بشيرا ونذيرا ولكن أكثر الناس لا
يعلمون
And We have not sent thee, but to all mankind, as a
bearer of glad tidings and a warner, but most people do not know. [Saba / 34:
28]
Word of Allah Almighty:
اعبدوا ربكم الذي خلقكم والذين من قبلكم
"Worship the Robb-mu Who has created you and those
before you",
It shows that man shall worship the Almighty Allah
because He has created man. It is as the Word of Allah Almighty that mention
the sayings of Prophet Shoaib Alaihissallam to his people:
واتقوا الذي خلقكم والجبلة الأولين
and bertaqwalah to Allah who has created you and the
former peoples. "[ash-Shu'ara '/ 26: 184]
And indeed the command of Allah Almighty is the wisdom of
man is created in this world, as his word:
وما خلقت الجن والإنس إلا ليعبدون
And I have not created jinn and mankind except that they
may serve me. [Adh-Dzâriyât / 51: 56]
The worship of Allah Almighty, namely: absolute obedient
to Allah Almighty, accompanied by a sense of love and pengangungan, hope and
fear, by carrying out His commands and avoid His prohibitions shari'ah through
His Messenger (Prophet Muhammad sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam) with a sincere
heart.
Word of Allah Almighty:
لعلكم تتقون
"That you devoted",
It is the purpose of worship of a servant, that is so
devoted, so that servants are protected from the wrath and punishment of Allah
Almighty.
Imam Ibn Rajab al-Hanbali rahimahullah (died 795 H) said,
"The root meaning of the word taqwa is a servant makes protection will
protect it from what he feared and he is aware of. So the meaning of devotion
servant to his Lord is that he makes protection will protect it from what he
feared and he is aware of his Lord, as his anger and torment him, by obeying
Him and away-disobedience disobedience to Him. "[1 ]
It also shows that the benefit of worship performed
servant will go back to the servant and not to Allah Almighty, also not for
others. Allah Almighty says:
من عمل صالحا فلنفسه ومن أساء فعليها وما ربك بظلام للعبيد
Whoever do good works then (reward) for himself, and
whoever does evil, the (sins) of himself; and once in a while is not persecute
your Lord's servants (his) [Fusshilat / 41: 46]
Exegesis Verse 22:
Word of Allah Almighty:
الذي جعل لكم الأرض فراشا والسماء بناء وأنزل من السماء ماء
فأخرج به من الثمرات رزقا لكم
Who has made the earth as an overlay for you and the sky
as a roof, and sent down water (rain) from the sky, then He bring forth all the
fruits as a sustenance for you. [Al-Baqarah / 2: 22]
It shows that among the reasons indentured servant to
worship the Almighty Allah is Allah Almighty has given sustenance to humans.
And Allah Almighty has prepared all the needs of human life, and has bestowed
His favor various servants. Allah Almighty says:
وما خلقت الجن والإنس إلا ليعبدون )56( ما أريد منهم من رزق
وما أريد أن يطعمون )57( إن الله هو الرزاق ذو القوة المتين
And I have not created jinn and mankind except that they
may serve me. I do not want sustenance at all of them and I do not want him to
give I eat. Verily Allah is He Who Has the Grantor provision Strength again
Very Strong. [Adh-Dzâriyât / 51: 56-58]
Shaykh Abdurrahman bin Nasir al-Sa'di (died 1376 H)
rahimahullah said when explaining verse 22 of Surat al-Baqarah this, "Then
Allah Almighty mentions proof (argument-red) is obligatory worship of Allah
Almighty alone , that He is the Rabb (Creator; owner; Ruler; Preserver) you
(humans), which have kept you with a variety of pleasures.
He has created you previously did not exist. He has also
created the people before you. He has given enjoyment to you with pleasures and
unseen.
He has made the earth as an overlay for you, you can
settle on it. You can also use it to (create) a building, agriculture, tillage,
walking from one place to another and a variety of other utilization of the
earth.
He also made the heavens as a roof to shelter you, and He
put in the sky various useful objects that become your needs, such as the sun,
moon and stars ....
Then he lowered the water (rain) from the sky, then He
bring forth all the fruits, such as grains and fruits of palm trees, and whole
fruits, and herbs, and others, as sustenance for you , with it you get
sustenance, you get basic food, you live, and have fun ". [2]
Word of Allah Almighty:
فلا تجعلوا لله أندادا
"Therefore, should not you held allies for Allah
Almighty",
This is a prohibition against shirk opposite of the
unity, namely "Do not make a counter-counter (for Allah Almighty) of the
creature, which ye worship it as a counter-counter offer worship to Allah
Almighty, and you love them as you love Allah Almighty, while those like you,
created by Allah Almighty, given sustenance by Allah Almighty, ruled by Allah
Almighty. They do not have any, although heavy dust of the earth and in the
sky. And they can not provide benefits to you and can not harm you ". [3]
Word of Allah Almighty:
وأنتم تعلمون
"When you know",
Ie you know "that Allah Almighty has no partner and
counterpoint, both in creating, giving sustenance, and organize. Likewise,
Allah Almighty has no partner and rival in uluhiyah (right to diibadahi) and
perfection. Then, how can you worship other gods besides Allah to worship the
Almighty? Though you know it. This is a matter that is very surprising and the
most stupid ignorance ". [4]
It is as the Word of Allah Almighty:
ولئن سألتهم من خلق السماوات والأرض وسخر الشمس والقمر ليقولن
الله فأنى يؤفكون
And indeed if you ask them (the unbelievers), "Who
made heaven and earth and subjected the sun and the moon?" They will
certainly reply, "Allah", then how can they (can) turned away (from
the right path). [Al-'Ankabut / 29: 61]
