![]() ![]() They also did poultry farming and fishing.They also did trade with the outside world which improved their business of importing grain in Yathrib and exporting dried dates to other countries.They knew the ways that were unknown to the Arabs.They were much stronger than the Arabs economically as they had migrated from more civilized and culturally advanced countries like Palestine and Syria.They completely adopted Arabism in their way of life, language, dress and cultivation. ![]() However, with the help of Ghassanide’s, they were able to gain complete dominance over Yathrib, forcing the Jews to establish their headquarters outside the city.Īt that time the main features of the Jews position were as follows: Therefore, they hardly produced for their own survival. That is the reason why they settled on lands that were not yet been brought under cultivation. This by itself is a proof that Allah's Mercy is infinite.As Yathrib was under Jewish domination, they, at the beginning, did not allow the Aus and Khazraj tribe to gain some control. In whatever has ture He has created the quality of mercy for some other creature, He has created it in order to make one creature a-means of the development and well-being of the other creature. The mercy of every other being, characterised by the hality of mercy, is partial and limited, and that quality too is not essentially its own, but bestowed by the Creator for a specific need and purpose. None else in the world is the bearer of such all-pervading, infinite mercy. *35) That is, He alone is the Being Whose mercy is limitless, which covers the whole universe and blesses and benefits everything a it. He directly knows whatever has happened in the past, whatever exists at present and whatever will happen in the future : He dces not stand in need of any means or medium of knowledge. Nothing of this universe is unknown to Him. That is, He knows whatever is hidden from the creatures as well as whatever is known and visible to them. *33) That is, He is the One besides Whom none else has the rank, position, attributes and powers of Godhead so that he may be worshipped and served as god Here, one should also understand that although in the Qur'an the attributes of Allah Almighty have been stated in a unique way, which gives a clear concept of the Divine Bing there are two places where the attributes of Allah have been mentioned in a most comprehensive way, in the Verse of the Throne (AI-Baqarah: 255) and in these verses of Surah Al-Hashr. This mention of the Divine attributes immediately after the above theme automatically gives man the feeling that he has not to deal with an ordinary being but with Almighty Allah Who has such and such attributes. *32) These verses explain what kind of God He is, and what are His attributes, Who has sent this Qur'an to you, Who has placed these responsibilities on you, and before Whom you have to render an account of your deeds in the end. *35 Huwal-laahul-lazee laaa Ilaaha illaa Huwa `Aalimul Ghaibi wash-shahaada Huwar Rahmaanur-Raheem (59:22) He *32 is Allah: there is no god but He *33 the Knower of the unseen and the manifest, *34 He is the Most Merciful, the Most Compassionate.
