There is nothing new if the infidels obstruct the believers or torture them when the Holy Prophet^-SW is inviting people to Islam. This has been going on from times immemorial. However, despite all the planning by the infidels, it was always the believers who won. For instance, take the case of Prophet Nuh^-AS. Allah^-SWT raised him^-AS amongst his^-AS own nation, which was well acquainted with his^-AS lineage and virtuous conduct. He^-AS propagated Allah^-SWT’s Message for 950 years consecutively, inviting people to piety. He^-AS had to face the derision and torture by the infidels throughout his^-AS life. They did not accept his^-AS teachings and invoked Divine Punishment that befell them in the form of the Deluge. Their might, their wealth or planning, nothing availed them. And Allah^-SWT saved His^-SWT Prophet^-AS from both the infidels as well as the Deluge. All those who believed and boarded the Ark were also miraculously saved as a token for the following generations. Similarly when Prophet Ibrahim^-AS was raised, he^-AS invited people to worship only Allah^-SWT and to obey Him^-SWT in all matters of practical life to ensure worldly as well as eternal bliss. His^-AS nation had resorted to idolatry, concocting all sorts of ungodly beliefs and myths without realising that their idols could not even give them a single gram of wheat.

Worldly Benefit Also In Din, Not At All In Infidelity

He^-AS told them that if they coveted temporal gains alone, those too could only be given by Allah^-SWT . So they should opt for the path of His^-SWT worship and gratitude so as to be successful in this world, while they have to return to Him^-SWT in the Akhirah in any case. This shows that if someone is merely seeking worldly benefits, he can only achieve these by practising Islam. This is because optimum results from any endeavour can only be acquired when it is conducted in the most accurate way, which is Islam. If only the contemporary simpletons could understand that the success of the infidel society in various spheres of life is solely due to their practical conformity to the guide lines given by Islam. They do not believe in it and as such do not qualify for eternal rewards, yet they definitely benefit in this temporal life.

In spite of all the reasoning, if the infidels do not accept the Holy Prophet^-SW’s invitation, he^-SW need not be aggrieved, as the Prophets^-AS preceding him^-AS were treated in a similar manner by their nations. It is not the duty of Allah^-SWT’s Messenger^-AS to force His^-SWT Message on people but only to convey it. The infidels are denying him^-SW don't they know how Allah^-SWT has created everything and how this process of creation is going on incessantly? So is it difficult for Him^-SWT to recreate everything? Let them traverse the earth and see for themselves the wonders of His^-SWT creation, to acknowledge the Magnificence of His^-SWT Absolute Omnipotence and to know that He^-SWT is capable of quickening in the Akhirah and can do whatever He^-SWT likes.

Scientific Research And Allah^-SWT ’s Book

A vivid point is proven here. The Quran had invited the infidels 1400 years ago to observe the process of creation and through it evaluate the Magnanimity and Unity of the Creator of such a meticulous system! But it was only centuries later that the research was started despite which, the majority of infidels fail to appreciate His^-SWT Magnanimity. On the contrary, the wrong doing Muslims and those with attenuated faith became overwhelmed by the infidels' research instead of Allah^-SWT’s Magnificence. Indeed it should have been the Muslims to have undertaken research and shown these realities to the infidels. Allah^-SWT being all Powerful can punish whomever He^-SWT may choose. In other words, it is His^-SWT prerogative to declare any act as a crime, and punish the doer or send His^-SWT Mercy on whomever He^-SWT may please, for everyone has to ultimately return to His^-SWT Court.

O’ Infidels! Even if you spare no efforts, you will not be able to prevent His^-SWT System and His^-SWT Absolute Supremacy from being enforced, on the earth, nor in the heavens. Neither by the discovery of the atom, nor by sending rockets in the space can it be impeded. Rather you will find no one to rescue you from His^-SWT Grip, neither in this world, nor in the Akhirah. It is demonstrated in the form of earthquakes, blizzards and floods that sweep the mighty infidel nations every now and then.
