14- ABRAHAM IBRAHIM Meccan /
Introduction
In The Name of Allah AL-Rahman and AL-Rahim (The Merciful,) The Surah clears up the duty of the Messengers of Allah and the value attached to the Books they have been given. It adds to this, their nature, all being human, sent as spectacles and warnings but totally unable to produce a supernatural act without Allah's will and authorization, nor can they guide anyone to the path of righteousness and out of darkness to light and enlightenment without His leave. The Surah gives parables beginning with life here and ending with life Hereafter, and portrays those who are thankful versus those who are ungrateful. It indicates that generally speaking man is not truly grateful. Yet, if people compute Allah's favours they shall find them out of all count, but those who lift to Allah their inward sight ponder His revelations and signs and endure misfortunes, and content lives ever in their thankful hearts. Last but not least the Surah makes a mention of Allah's Omnipotence to render many of the physical forces subservient to man. It shows that more things are wrought by prayer than this world dreams of, and this is beautifully illustrated in Ibrahim's (Abraham) discourse and disposition.
