وَجَعَلۡنٰہُمۡ اَئِمَّۃً یَّہۡدُوۡنَ بِاَمۡرِنَا وَاَوۡحَیۡنَاۤ اِلَیۡہِمۡ فِعۡلَ الۡخَیۡرٰتِ وَاِقَامَ الصَّلٰوۃِ وَاِیۡتَآءَ الزَّکٰوۃِ ۖ وَکَانُوۡا لَنَا عٰبِدِیۡنَ

Commentary:
God chose leaders of religious movements from among the progeny of Abraham in fulfilment of his prayer referred to in 2:125. A similar promise in regard to the raising of Divine Reformers in every age from among his followers was made to the Holy Prophet (Abu Dawud). This promise is also implicit in the famous prayer, i.e. Darud, viz. "O Lord bestow thy blessings upon Muhammad as Thou didst bestow Thy blessings upon Abraham." Divine Reformers continued to appear among the progeny of Abraham till, with the rejection of Jesus by the Jews, they were deprived of this boon for all times and prophethood was transferred to the House of Ishmael in fulfilment of the above-said prayer. Divine teachers are now raised from among the followers of the Holy Prophet in every century to regenerate Islam and they will continue to do so till the end of time. The fulfilment of the prayer implicit in Darud establishes the superiority of the Holy Prophetover Abraham because whereas Divine teachers ceased to appear among the progeny of Abraham after Jesus, they will continue to appear among his followers as long as this world lasts.

وَنُرِیۡدُ اَنۡ نَّمُنَّ عَلَی الَّذِیۡنَ اسۡتُضۡعِفُوۡا فِی الۡاَرۡضِ وَنَجۡعَلَہُمۡ اَئِمَّۃً وَّنَجۡعَلَہُمُ الۡوٰرِثِیۡنَ
Commentary:
When the degradation and humiliation of the Israelites in Egypt reached its nadir and the cup of iniquities of Pharaoh and his people became full to the brim and God in His infallible wisdom decreed that the oppressors should be punished and those held in bondage be emancipated, He raised Moses. Such has always been God’s practice that He raises a Prophet to lead a down-trodden people to honour and glory and through his influence and under his lead the erstwhile suppressed and exploited people become the leaders and teachers of men. This phenomenon which took place in the time of every Divine Messenger witnessed its fullest and finest manifestation during the ministry of the Holy Prophet of Islam.
The words "to make them inheritors", refer to the Israelites becoming heirs to that 'land of promise'—Canaan—which, like Egypt, "flowed with milk and honey" and which God had "ordained for them" (5:22).

21:74.
یعنی وہ مامور تھے اور اللہ تعالیٰ کی وحی ان پر نازل ہوتی تھی کہ لوگوں کو ہدایت کی طرف لاؤ۔
صَبْرٌ کے معنی استقلال کے ہوتے ہیں یعنی جب کبھی دنیا میں خرابی پیدا ہوئی اور بعض لوگوں نے خدا کی کتاب کی تبلیغ شروع کی تو جو لوگ خراب ہو گئے تھے انہوں نے ان پر ظلم کرنے شروع کیے۔ مگر وہ اپنی تعلیم اور تبلیغ پر قائم رہے اور انہوں نے ظلم برداشت کیے۔ آخر ان کی اس قربانی کو دیکھ کر خداتعالیٰ نے ان پر وحی نازل کی اور اپنے زمانہ کے لئے ان کو امام بنا دیا۔ تاکہ جو کام پہلے وہ اپنے شوق سے کرتے تھے اب خدا کی وحی کے مطابق کرنے لگ جائیں گویا آسمانی بادشاہت کے ایک افسر بن جائیں۔
