Tafseer of Surah At-Takwir Ayat 25. Nor is it the word of an evil spirit accursed. Such as evil suggestions of envy, spite, greed, selfishness, or other vices. On the contrary, the teaching of the Qur'an is beneficent, pointing to the Right Way, and Way of Allah. Rajim: literally, driven away with stones, rejected with complete ignominy. The rite of throwing stones in the valley of Mina at the close of the Makkan Pilgrimage suggests symbolically that the Pilgrim emphatically, definitely, and finally rejects all Evil. 26. When whither go ye? It has been shown that this is no word of a mortal, but that it is full of divine wisdom: that its teaching is not that of a madman, but sane to the core and in accordance with human needs: that it freely and clearly directs you to the right Path and forbids you the Path of evil. Why then hesitate? Accept the divine Grace; repent of your sins; and come to the higher Life. 27. Verily this is no less than a Message to (all) the Worlds:( It is not meant for one class or race; it is universal, and is addressed to all the Worlds. For the meaning of "Worlds", (With profit) to whoever among you wills to go straight: Allah is the Cherisher of the Worlds, Lord of Grace and Mercy, and His guidance is open to all who have the will to profit by it. But that will must be exercised in conformity with Allah's Will (verse 29). Such conformity is Islam. Verse 28 points to human free will and responsibility; verse 29 to its limitations. Both extremes, viz.: cast-iron Determination and an ides of chaotic Free Will, are condemned. 29. But ye shall not will except as Allah wills,- the Cherisher of the Worlds.
