THE ANNULMENT OF DEEDS Verse 18

      An expressive parable has been struck here to illustrate the work of the ungodly, and it completes the past argument about the end of the heathens:ِ

      ``Their work is like ashes on which the wind blows in a stormy day.''

      The deeds of the unbelievers in themselves generally have little weight and value, just like the ashes. And as the ashes cannot stand against a fast moving wind, specially in a stormy day, so is the act of the ungodly which is more easily blown about here and there by the wrath of God. They obtain no fruit of what they plant, and sooner or later they shall come to know that they have been carried far away from what they had in their mind.

      The ashes are not adhesive particles and even with the aid of water we connot make the substance tenacious so as to be apt to adhere to each other. And so is the work of those who believe not in their Lord Creator, for being not co-ordinated or related to one another. In the contrary the spirit of unity and oneness can be observed in all the works of those who believe. Their conducts is a manifestation of Monotheism and godlyness.

      Ashes are also very light, empty, and void of useful contents, so much so that no living creature ever makes a nest or room among the ashes. So in the fruitless work of the unbelievers and useless and vain deeds of the godless people for having no truthful intention or reasonable aim and object.

      As an instance of this we, may refer to the HUMAN-RIGHTS, which now-a-days have fallen on the tip of the tongues. The same rights were also observed by the prophets, but the difference between the two observances is more than the difference between the earth and the heavens?

 

      When a superpower claims of supporting the human rights he has not any human stimulus or moral objection to incite them to this sort of activity. Their aim in that is merely pretence and political, and their work in the fields of human rights is a cloak to cover their own human criminals! They speak eloquently of the human rights, but their hands up to the elbow has been submerged in the human blood!
