with the name of God
In verse 54 of sura Qasas, the Qur’ān points to a group of their righteous deeds, each of which is worthier than the other. These actions are ‘avertingevil withgood’, ‘spendingout of the Divine bounties’, and ‘facing with the ignorant magnificently.’ These qualities added to patience and ncepersevera, mentioned in the former sentence, make four outstanding qualities. It begins saying
“… and avert evil with good, …”
They avert evils, such as: ugly words with good sayings, the indecency with virtue, the ignorance with knowledge, the enmity and grudge with kindness, and the rupture of relation with friendship and union of kindred. In short, instead of answering vice with vice, they try to repel it with goodness. This is a very effective style in struggling against mischief, specially against a group of obstinate persons, and the Qur’ān has repeatedly emphasized it. (There is a detailed explanation in this regard when commenting on Sura Ar-Ra‘d, No. 13, verse 22, and Sura Al-Mu’minūn, No. 23, verse 96) |
