warning has been given by this part of blessed Ayah ‘فَتَرَ بَّصُوۡا حَتّٰی یَاۡتِیَ اللّٰہُ بِاَمۡـرِہٖ’ (then wait until Allah brings about His command) and that person is frightened who loves his wealth, wife and children more than Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ and His Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم. Further, at the end of the Ayah, such people have been informed that they are amongst the misguided people and Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ does not guide them. (Ash-Shifa, pp. 18)

A’la Hadrat رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه has said: From this blessed Ayah it has been understood that the person who considers any honourable person, relative and friend, any possession or anything dearer than the Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم, is rejected in the court of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ. Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ will not guide him. Such a person should await the torment of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ.

(Fatawa Razawiyyah, vol. 30, pp. 309-310)

Because the Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم has himself stated: No one amongst you can become a perfect believer until he loves me more than his mother, father, offspring and all the people. (Sahih Bukhari, Kitab-ul-Iman, vol. 1,  pp. 17, Hadees 15)

جانِ ايماں ہے مَحَبَّت تری جانِ جاناں        جس کے دل میں یہ نہیں خاک مسلماں ہوگا

دردِ فُرقت کا مداوا نہ ہوا اور نہ ہو          کيا طبیبوں سے مرے درد کا دَرماں ہوگا

صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب              صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلٰى مُحَمَّد
