– Abantu abansundu bangaba naba mhlophe yini?
Mthandiwe, mzalwane wethu,
Izwe elizayo
“indlu yamandla”
ngoba akwenzeki ukulinganisa leyo ndawo ngezilinganiso zezwe, ukuyilinganisa nokuyihlola ngalokho esikubonayo lapha.
Ngoba njengoba yonke into emhlabeni idalwe ngesizathu nangokuhlakanipha, e-Akhira (ezulwini) akudingeki lutho ngoba yonke into idalwe ngendlela ehlukile. Njengoba kungekho ndaba yemfihlakalo yokuhlolwa e-Akhira, izimo ezingavamile nezimangalisayo zivame ukubonakala. Umuntu uhlala emangazwa njalo.
Phambi kwezibusiso, kuphela
“Alhamdulillah”
Uthi, abonge futhi adumise. Emhlabeni, ingabe izihlahla ziyakhuluma, amatshe ayazwa izindaba, amanzi ayalalela imiyalo, izilwane ziyakhuluma? Cha.
Kodwa e-Akhirah, yonke into iyaphila, yonke into inengqondo, futhi yonke into isebenza ngaphansi kwemiyalo yomuntu.
Umuthi uyakhuluma, itshe liyazisa, amanzi ayalandela umuntu. Konke esikucabangayo, esikufisayo, nesikuzwayo ngengqondo, ngenhliziyo nangemizweni, kuyenzeka, kuyagcwaliseka.
Kunezinto eziningi ezenzeka ngaphandle kwesizathu. Kulelo zwe, wonke umuntu uthola izibusiso ngokwezinga lakhe. Nakuba ubuso nomzimba womuntu kuleli zwe kungashintshi ngokwesimo, ubuhle, ukukhanya, nobumnandi buyanda kakhulu, amaphutha ayalungiswa, izinto ezingaphelele ziyapheleliswa, futhi umuntu uba ngophelele ngayo yonke indlela.
UNkulunkulu uMdali wadala wonke umuntu emhlabeni ngobuhle obuhlukile. Kodwa lobo buhle buyathuthukiswa ngezindlela ezahlukene. Njengoba eNkulunkulwini, abakholwayo bazonikezwa zonke izibusiso ngendlela abazozithanda, bazamukele, bazijabulele,
“umbala wesikhumba”
Kungenzeka ukuthi kwenzeke okufanayo nasekulandelayo. Ngokwesibonelo, uma umuntu omnyama efisa ukuba mhlophe emhlabeni, uNkulunkulu angamnika lokho akufisayo ngemva kokufa uma ethanda.
Indaba leli, liyakhanyiswa yingxoxo eyenzeka phakathi koMprofethi wethu (ukuthula nokubusiswa kube phezu kwakhe) nomunye wabangane bakhe. U-Esved, umuntu wase-Abyssinia, owayenobuso obumnyama njengamalahle, wafika phambi koMprofethi (ukuthula nokubusiswa kube phezu kwakhe). Wayema ngendlela enokwesaba.
“Ya Rasulallah!”
waqala ngala mazwi:
“Ngicela ukubuza umbuzo, ngiyakwazi yini?”
Umprofethi wesihe wamukelwa ngobubele,
“Yebo, buza, yini inkinga?”
basho.
“O Mthunywa kaNkulunkulu, nina niphakeme kunathi ngobuhle, ngombala, nangobuthunywa. UNkulunkulu wanimisa ngendlela ekhethekile. Ngicela ungitshele, uma ngikholwa kulokho enikholwa kukho, ngikholwa, ngisebenze izenzo ezinhle enizenzayo, ngingaba nani ePharadesi?”
Umprofethi wethu (ukuthula kube kuye),
“Yebo, uyakwazi”
Ngemva kokusho lokho, wamemezela lezi zindaba ezinhle ku-Eswed, lowo muntu omnyama ebusweni kodwa omhlophe futhi okhanyayo emoyeni nasezinhliziyweni, owayeseshisekelele ubuSulumane futhi wazibonakalisa ngothando lwakhe ngomprofethi:
“Ngiyakufunga kuNkulunkulu, uMninimandla onke, ukuthi ubumhlophe buka-Esved ePharadesi buyabonakala ngisho nasebanga lezinkulungwane zeminyaka.”
U-Esved, ngemva kokuzwa lezi zindaba ezinhle, waba nokholo, waqala ukukhala kakhulu, wakhala izinyembezi zenjabulo. Uthando lwakhe lwezulu lwalumshisa kangaka, waze wawa phansi ngaleso sikhathi. Bambuka,
“Kazi usaphila yini?”
Umphefumulo wakhe wawusuhambile. Umprofethi wamkhulekela wamngcwaba ngesandla sakhe esibusisiwe.
(Üsdü’l-Gabe, 1:83)
Yebo, uma uNkulunkulu, owagcwalisa isifiso sikaHz. Esved, ethanda, angagcwalisa nezinye izifiso zamaSulumane amnyama.
