      The chapter begins with the importance of the Holy Qurän, whose verses are made firm and statute by knowledge and wisdom. The Book includes all the basic principles, and it further explains them in detail.

      The Book is of surety sent down to our prophet through inspiration from Allah Who is Allِwisdom and Allِaware.

      The Message given to all the apostles, as well as our prophet Mohammad (AS), includes four important principles, namely:ِ

       Worship none except Allah the only one true God.

       Allah has sent His Messenger Mohammad to all mankind as a warner to warn against evil, and also as a bearer of good news, for the believers who do righteous deeds.

       The prophet calls Man to seek God's forgiveness and repent to Him.

       The fourth basic principle of the Message is that, after cleansing his soul through repentance, Man should turn to his Lord and adorn himself with the attributes of Allah by doing righteous deeds.

      Then the argument applies to the results that can be obtained by adhering to the above principles and making a life programme out of them:ِ

 

      If you follow the principles, Allah will give you in return, the enjoyment of all the good thing that are obtainable in the life of this world during its limited period; and He will also bestow His Grace upon the followers according to the merits, so as to attain the high spiritual rewards of the life to come:ِ

      ``But if you turn away, I fear for you the punishment of a great day.''

      The said verses imply that the aim of Islam, our religion, is to improve and flourish the material life of man before it applies to the next world's life. Such an aim has been clearly explained in Qurän, and many a time in detail. As an instance of this; we read in theِS71:11, that NUH the arch prophet of God, says to his people:ِ

      ``O, My People! Seek the forgiveness of your Lord and turn to Him, Then He will loose the sky upon you in its blessings (such as its rain), and will strengthen you with wealth and sons and will bestow on you gardens and will appoint rivers for you.''

      The bounties promised here are essential to the continuance of life and fundamentally affect man's happiness and prosperity.
