54. " We say nothing but that some of our gods have smitten you with evil. He said: 'Verily I call Allah to witness and bear you(also)witness that I am quit of what you associate (with Allah). "
Commentary
The Arabic term/ 'i'tira/ means protest and cursing. Ascribing insanity to the prophets, as well as to revolutionaries, and community reformists, who have risen up against superstition, is nothing new. On the contrary, declaring their distance from and abhorrence of idol- worshipping and idol worshippers has always been in keeping with the spirit of all the Divine prophets which itself provides us with an example confirming that one must stand decisively against superstition. The verse says:
" We say nothing but that some of our gods have smitten you with evil. He said: 'Verily I call Allah to witness and bear you(also)witness that I am quit of what you associate (with Allah). "
The resistance and challenging spirit of Hud (a.s.) provides the reason for his legitimacy and the decisiveness of his path. It exhibits the fact that prophets fear Allah only and are not frightened by any other power.
55. " Besides Him, (I am quit of everything you worship), therefore, scheme (your worst) against me, all together, and give me no respite. "
Commentary
Hud further goes on to say that not only they are unable to be of any use to you, but also you, with such a large population still lack the power to do anything even with the aid of those whom you worship other than Him.
So I dare all of you to unite and plan any kind of conspiracies you can against me, give me no chances, you cannot do anything against me. The verse says:
" Besides Him, (I am quit of everything you worship), therefore, scheme (your worst) against me, all together, and give me no respite. "
56. " Verily, I have put my trust in Allah, my Lord and your Lord! (For)there is no moving creature but He holds it (in His control) by its forelock.
Verily my Lord is on a Straight Path. "
Commentary
By relying on Allah, one can stand up against the entire world, for Allah is in full command of everything and besides being All- Powerful, He is also Just. Therefore one must rely on him who, besides having power, is just, too; such as Allah, the prophet and immaculate Imams. The verse says:
" Verily, I have put my trust in Allah, my Lord and your Lord! (For)there is no moving creature but He holds it (in His control) by its forelock.
Verily my Lord is on a Straight Path. "
One can speak of Divine anger and the Divine system of justice being at work when the issue involved is the enmity and obstinacy of the idol worshippers, so that they may be transformed and become believers.
