Recognition of Imam Part II - Abortive Attempt against the Divine Light
Abortive Attempt against the Divine Light
Tags:
In verse (9:32), God says: "They intend to extinguish the light of Allah with [the blows of] their mouths, but Allah disdains [aught] save that He will perfect His light, however much the disbelievers are averse".
One of the wisdoms of this noble verse is that the abortive attempt to extinguish the light of Allah, is made by someone who does not recognise it and [due to ignorance] has enmity with it, for His light, like Hazrat `Isa(`a) and Hazrat Muhammad Mustafa(s), is always manifest in front of the people in human attire. In short, the cause of the opposition and enmity with the Prophet and Imam is nothing but blindness and ignorance. For, it is impossible to find a disbeliever in this world who, first believes in God, then believes in someone as His light and then tries to extinguish it.
