穆圣的道路是今日通向安拉的唯一正直的道路。这节经文对一位先知和一位哲学家作了明确的区分。哲学家花了很长时间寻求真理, 但经常在探索中迷失方向; 可是安拉派遣的先知用最短的途径在最快的时间内发现真理。他不必像哲学家那样, 在抽象和难解的概念的迷宫中徘徊, 而是由安拉的启示直接引向真理的。
The Holy Prophet’s path now is the only right and straight path that leads to God. The verse makes a fine distinction between a Prophet and a philosopher. A philosopher takes long time to find out truth and often gets lost in the quest, but a Prophet of God discovers it by the shortest route and in the shortest time. Unlike philosophers he is guided to it direct by Divine revelation without wandering in the labyrinth of abstract and abstruse ideas.
Commentary:
The Holy Prophet’s path now is the only right and straight path that leads to God. All other paths that formerly led to Him have now been closed and shall remain closed till the end of time. The fact that after the advent of the Holy Prophet there has not appeared among the followers of any other religion a single claimant to Divine revelation, while there have been living among the followers of Islam in every age, persons to whom God spoke and revealed Himself, is a proof positive of the Holy Prophet’s path being now the only right and straight path, and of the Quran being the only revealed Book which can lead man to God.
The verse makes a fine distinction between a Prophet and a philosopher. A philosopher takes a long time to find out truth and often gets lost in the quest, but a Prophet of God discovers it by the shortest route and in the shortest period of time. Unlike philosophers he is guided to it direct by Divine revelation without wandering in the labyrinth of abstract and abstruse ideas.
