The conclusive argumentFreedom from Darkness

The word “Anzaar” means the severest punishment and this too is a manner of nurturing and education and it is the incentive for bringing a person out of darkness into light. Qura’n has given a great stress on it and this may be one of the main purposes of an Apostle’s ministry.

God points to this in the seventh verse and says:

 “We do not send Messengers except as heralds with glad tidings and as warners; then who ever believe and acts rightly shall have no fear and they shall not grieve.”

This verse and the others which speak about glad tidings and warnings are actually denoting an important program of the Apostles and is the denial about the people who believe in them have faith that they will reveal all the powers of God. It also denies those who deny the mission and its ideas though God has specified that their duty is to give glad tidings and to warn. The other deeds have already been specified by God and guidance is related to mankind as specified by the verse:” then who ever believe and acts rightly shall have no fear and they shall not grieve.” Actually it is possible that the protection of all the perils is included in these two sentences.

Their duty is to benefit mankind and save them from perils. The words “Basharat and Anzar are inter- related. Basharat without Anzar is not complete and the same is true for Anzar for they jointly affect mankind from the beginning to the end so far as his education is concerned. This is also a severe warning for those who rebel.
