What is meant by Allah, Rasool and Mominoon in the verse 9:105
-
Dr. Shabbir Ahmad has understood the above verse (9105) as below
Say, "Act! (Prove your word with action). Allah will behold your actions, and so will His Messenger, and the believers. Ultimately you will be returned to the Knower of the Invisible and the Visible. He will show you a replay of all you used to do."
http//www.islamawakened.com/quran/9/105/default.htm
I want to ask
(i) What is meant by Allah in the verse?
(ii) What is meant by Rasooluhu in the verse?
(iii) What is meant by Mominoon?
(iv) Who is meant as 'Knower of the Invisible and the Visible'.
(v) How the terms - 'Allah', 'Rasool', 'Mominoon', and 'Knower of the Invisible and the Visible' fit in the system of Governance?Salaam!

To the best of my understanding, the verse ? (9105) is indicative of the concept of administrative management to run the system of governance as follows-
(i) Allah refers to "the head of Top Management" vested with the policy making authorities. (3122)
(ii) Rasool refers to "the head of Middle Management" ? Cutting edge level.
(iii) Mominoon refers to "the head of Lower Management" ? Cutting edge level.
(iv) 'Knower of secrets and the public' refers to 'the Supremo of the Administrative Management'.59
Shakir has understood the above verse 459 as below
?O you who believe! obey Allah and obey the Messenger and those in authority from among you; then if you quarrel about anything, refer it to Allah and the Messenger, if you believe in Allah and the last day; this is better and very good in the end.? (459)
As far as I understand, the above verse is indicative of the concept of functioning of the administration to run the system of governance as follows
(i) O you who believe refer to ?Those who have willingly offered their service to play a part in the system of Governance ? Popularly known as ?employees? or ?executives? or the like?.
(ii) For the employees, there are two prominent Junctions for taking a decision to be followed and obeyed i.e. (a) Allah - "the head of Top Management" (b) Rasool - "the head of Middle Management" (c) Authorities in the hierarchy of Administrative Management enjoying delegated powers.
(iii) In case of dispute in the decision making, the matter may be referred to Allah and Rasool for getting it resolved.
I have put forward some out of the box understanding for wider consultation of the respected Ulul-Albab members of the Forum. If you do not like just ignore it. If you want to contribute with corrections and suggestions, you are most welcome.

I seek refuge in Allah(swt) from the accursed Satan
To the best of my understanding, the biggest threat confronting smooth functioning of the system of Governance has been identified in Al-Quran as ?the Mushrikeen?.
(i) Mushrikeen are the 'Unscrupulous Elements' who willingly and knowingly choose to be governed by separate set of rules other than the Government Rules, as per their whims and fancies. (614, 6161, 10105, 12108, 16120, 2887 refers). In the modern world, Mushrikeen are popularly known as (a) Criminals (b) Perpetrators of illegal and unlawful activities (c) Private business entities (d) Private Sector Undertakings / Corporations. etc. etc.
(ii) Those who are convicted in criminal activities are rascals (impure) and thus they may not be allowed enter the harmonious places where peaceful transaction of business takes place. (928 refers) They may be shot at sight or jailed or confined or banned or blacklisted or outcast or so depending upon the nature and gravity of offence. (95 refers)
(iii) If any of the Mushrikeen surrenders consciously, he/she may be given protection. (96 refers)
(iv) If the Private Business Entities and Private Sector Undertakings / Corporations refrain from illegalities and get permission from the Government i.e. Registration / License etc. by entering into an agreement with the Government, they may be allowed to run their business with Laissez Faire subject to (a) fulfillment of laid down terms and conditions of agreement and (b) remains duty bound and (c) submission of assessment of transactions. (91-11 refers).
This is again an out of the box understanding which came to my mind and I posting here as thought provoking exercise for wider consultation of the respected Ulul-Albab members of the Forum. If any one of you do not like, just ignore it. If you want to contribute with corrections and suggestions, you are most welcome.

Verse 9105 reminds me the basis of the most famous Vedic 'Chaturvarna' theory, which was grossly wronged by the so called Hindu Scholars from ages . 928 reminds me the basis of the most heinous practice of Untouchability adopted by the Hindu Religious Groups.

While the concept enshrined in Al-Quran at 9105 was misconceived by the scholars following previous Scriptures and construed as the dogmatic four categories of Upper Caste - (i) Brahman (ii) Rajput (iii) Bhumihar (iv) Kayastha, the misconception further lead to division of society into caste lines and gave birth to the dogmatic and rigid caste system viz. (i) Brahmans (ii) Kshatriya (iii) Vaishya (iv) Shudras, that has been existing in the Hindu Society till today. Verse 262 of Al-Quran throws light on the said caste system.
In the rigid caste system, Brahmans were accepted and revered as the superior and sacred class among all. They were to provide for the intellectual and spiritual needs of the community. Kshatriyas, warriors and rulers - their role was to rule and to protect others. Vaishyas--landowners, merchants, service providers-- were entrusted with the care of commerce, agriculture and services. Shudras--artisans and servants--their task was to perform all manual labor.
Kindly refer to verse 262 of Al-Quran as below
62
"Verily, those who choose to offer their services in the system of Governance while keeping harmony with the Divine Writ, and those who are Hadu, and Nasara and the Sabians - whoever truly believes in Allah and the Last Day and do righteously, surely their reward is with their Lord. On them there shall be no fear, and they shall not grieve." (262)

With respect to the governance human anatomy, I find the verse ? (9105) equally important and relevant as it indicates administrative management of the functioning of human body as follows-
(i) Allah, "the head of Top Management" vested with the authorities of policy making authorities i.e. 'the Brain' is placed in the uppermost part that is called the Head.
(ii) Rasool "the head of Middle Management" i.e. ?the Heart?.
(iii) Mominoon refers to "the heads of Lower Management" ? Kidneys.
(iv) 'Knower of secrets and the public', i.e. Secretariat (popularly known as ?Mind?)49 50
Dr. Shabbir Ahmad has understood the above verse as below
?Behold, before Allah, bows in submission all that is in the heavens and all that is in the earth, whether living beings or the angels, for none are arrogant.? (1649)
?They all fear their Lord, High above them, and they do all that they are commanded for.? (1650)
17
Free minds has understood the above verse as below?And the angels will be on its borders; and the Throne of your Lord will be carried, above them on that Day, by eight.? (6917)
As far as I understand, the trusted angels (Malaika) of Allah of Administrative set of the human body are as follows, whose duty is to obey the commandment of Allah obediently. They are duty bound to discharge their duties dutifully. They do not take their own decision but strictly follow the directions of Allah and whenever they are called for the duty, they follow suit
Tools of speaking and Eating and Drinking - (i) Throat, (ii) Tongue (iii) Lower Jaw (iv) Lips, Seeing tools - (v) Eyes, Smelling tool - (vi) Nose, Action Tools - (vii) Upper Limbs (viii) Lower Limbs
Incidentally, ?the Ears? are placed alongside the above Angels but they are not obedient and do not follow the commandment of Allah rather functions independently and influence the decision making process exorbitantly. They always stand as a threat to vitiate the supremacy of Allah. All other angels prostrated when Adam i.e. human being started functioning except the Iblees (the ears).
34
Dr. Shabbir Ahmad has understood the above verse as below
?And when We said to the angels, "Humble yourselves and be subservient to Adam (the humankind) - They instantly humbled themselves except Iblis (Satan) who refused through pride, and so became a rejecter? (234)

Look at the structure of The Brain. It has three major parts - (i) Cerebellum (ii) Cerebrum (iii) Brain Stem.
- (The captioned message embedded in Quran)
To the best of my acumen, I have understood the above verse as below
Start the proceedings with the permission or the volition of Allah - (i) The Chair (ii) The Rahman (iii) The Raheem
To the best of my acumen, I have understood the above verse(2163) as below
" The Authority to take instructions from to follow for you all is a unit. None is worthy of worship (taking instructions to follow) except the Chair + the Rahman + the Rahim."
Cerebellum -
(i) The ancient and unmoved house of Allah (Baitullah). Sits at the back of the head, under the cerebrum.
(ii) Called as Bakkah in the language of Al-Quran (Al-Quran - 396 refers)
(iii) Presided over by Al-Rahman i.e. no proceeding can start in this House without prior permission of Al-Rahman. (Al-Quran, 11 refers)
(iv) Functions as a legislative organ with no or limited financial powers construing an Idealist House. It controls coordination and balance. Occurrence of Al-Rahman is 57 times in Quran.Cerebrum -
(i) The most active house i.e. house of representatives. Fills up most part of the skull.
(ii) Popularly known as Makkah, also find mention in Al-Quran at 4824.
(iii) Presided over by Al-Rahim i.e. no proceeding can start in this House without prior permission of Al-Raheem. (Al-Quran, 11 refers)
(iv) Functions like a legislative organ with unlimited financial powers construing as the House of Mercy, as it is involved in remembering, problem solving, thinking, and feeling. It also controls movement. Occurrence of Al-Raheem in Al-Quran is 114 times.Brain Stem - The chair (Ultimate Junction of all power authorities, powers, news, information, messages, directions etc.)
[
Free Minds has the above verse (2255) as below
"God, there is no god except He, the Living, the Sustainer. No slumber or sleep overtakes Him; to Him belongs all that is in the heavens and the earth. Who will intercede with Him except with His permission? He knows their present and their future, and they do not have any of His knowledge except for what He wishes. His Throne encompasses all of the heavens and the earth and it is easy for Him to preserve them. He is the Most High, the Great."
To the best of my understanding, the following observations are made
-
Allah (i.e. The brain), none is worthy of worship (taking instructions to follow) except the Chair + the most active + the unmoved.
-
The brain never gets a sleep or slumber.
-
from top to bottom, everything under the direct control of the Chair.
-
Nothing can move except the green signal of the Chair of the Brain.
-
The brain possesses knowledge of the visible and invisible.
-
No any part of the body has access to any knowledge except that is provided by the Brain.
-
And the chair of the brain nurtures everything from top to bottom.
-
The brain is the reservoir of memory.
-
And the Chair of the Brain is most dignified and more revered.

The inherent concept of Allah(The Brain) enshrined in the following ayah of Al-Quran was grossly wronged by the scholars of the previous scholars and they misconstrued as Allah is one of three (i.e. HU) or Trinity
(i) - (The captioned message embedded in Quran)
Understood as below
"Start the proceedings with the permission or the volition of Allah - (i) The Chair (ii) The Rahman (iii) The Raheem"
The above verse(2163) understood as below
" The Authority to take instructions from to follow by you all is a unit. None is worthy of worship (taking instructions to follow) except the Chair the Rahman the Rahim."
Persistent Misconceptions relating to the term - 'Al-Raheem'
"Hindus misconstrue Raheem as 'Mata Rani' (Karuna ka saagar) whereas the Christians misconstrue as Mary (The merciful mother) and the label Muslims misconstrue as a distinct adjective of Allah understood as 'The Most Merciful'."
Quran has denounced the misconception of division of Allah(The Brain) and re-confirmed it as an inseparable unit
4171 - (i) Say not... three, ("Namely, God, Jesus, Mary....)
(ii) Actually Allah(the Brain) is worthy of worship (taking instructions to follow) as a unit.517 - (i) Denounces the misconception of division of Allah(The Brain) as the Father, the Mother (Mary), and the Son (Jesus).
5116 - (ii) Denounces the misconception of division of Allah(The Brain) as the Father, the Mother (Mary), and the Son (Jesus).
723 - (iii) Denounces the misconception of construing (HU) as a separate entity detached from (a) The Rahman (b) The Raheem587
Dr. Shabbir Ahmad has understood the above verse as follow
"Do you not realize that Allah knows all that is in the heavens and all that is in the earth. There is no secret meeting of three but He is their fourth, nor of five but He is their sixth, nor of less than that or more but He is with them wherever they may be. And ultimately, on the Day of Resurrection, He will inform them of what they truly accomplished. Verily, Allah is Knower of all things." (587)
To the best of my acumen, I have understood the verse as below
(i) Be mindful, actually Allah(The Brain) is aware of all the happenings in the system of governance of your body from head to toe (i.e. from top to bottom.)
(ii) It captures all the incidences take place within the system and gives you the news, whenever you recollect.
(iii) Verily, Allah(the Brain) possesses knowledge of everything.Chapter 112 of Al-Quran has put to an end of all the guesses and conjectures as follows
Dr. Shabbir Ahmad has understood the above verses (1121-4) as follows
"Say, "He is Allah, the One! Allah is Absolute, Eternal, Unique, Self-Sufficient, Perfect, Independent, the Uncaused Cause of all that exists, Besought of all. He begets not, nor is He begotten. And there is none that could be comparable unto Him." (1121-4)
To the best of my acumen, I have understood the verse as below
(i) Say, the Chair (HU) and Allah(The Brain) is one and the same. (i.e. inseparable unit as a whole)
(ii) Allah(the Brain) is sovereign.
(iii) Nothing can be added or subtracted from Allah(the Brain).
(iv) And there is no comparable unit for the Chair(HU)In order to better conceptualize the holy doctrine of Allah(the Brain), look at the construction of a 'Bat'. It consists of (a) Handle i.e. the Chair (b) Upper House i.e. stable or the least moved (Al-Quyyum) (c) Lower House i.e. most active part (Al-Haiyyu). When the three parts (a), (b) and (c) are coherently put together it starts working as a tool (The Rab). If you separate any of the perceived three parts of the 'Bat', it will not work as it intends to and will become burdensome. Just think on it.
This is again I have tried to present the above mentioned out of the box understanding to the best of my acumen, for wider consultation of the respected Ulul-Albab members of the Forum. If you do not like this, just ignore it. If you want to contribute with corrections and suggestions, you are most welcome.
