Duniya ki Takhleeq aur Insaan ka Maqsad

Jab Allah ne duniya banane ka faisla kiya, toh unhone bas “Kun” (ho ja) kaha aur sab kuch astitva me aa gaya, jaisa ki Qur’an me bataya gaya hai. Ye process“chhah dinon” me poori hui, lekin in dinon ka matlab hamari aam samajh se alag hai. Isme aasmaan, zameen, pahaad, ped, jaanvar aur insaan sab shaamil hain.

Duniya banane ka main reason Allah ki ibaadat hai. Allah ne insaan ko apni ibaadat ke liye paida kiya, taaki insaan sahi aur galat me farq kar sake aur roz-e-Qayamat uska hisaab ho.

Jab Allah ne farishton ko bataya ki wo zameen par ek khaleefa (insaan) banane wale hain, toh farishton ne poochha:

“Kya aap us par kisi aise ko banaenge jo 
usme fasaad phailaega aur khoon bahaega, 
jabki hum aapki tasbeeh aur pakizgi bayan karte hain?”

 (Surah Al-Baqarah, Ayat 30)

 

Allah ne jawab diya:

“Main wo jaanta hoon jo tum nahi jaante.”

Islam me Mard aur Aurat ka Maqaam

Allah ne mard aur aurat dono ko paida kiya — ek-dusre ke saathi aur ek-dusre ka poorak (complementary) banakar. Dono ka darja barabar hai, lekin unki zimmedariyon me fark rakha gaya hai.

Qur’an ke mutabiq, Allah ke saamne kisi ka darja uske gender se nahi, balki taqwa (imaan aur neeki) se tay hota hai. Mard ko ghar ka zimmedar banaya gaya hai aur aurat ko bhi barabar ka darja diya gaya hai. Dono ko achhe aamaal ka barabar sila milta hai.

1. Insaniyat me Barabari

Qur’an kehta hai:

 “Maine tum sabko ek hi jaan se paida kiya.” 

   (Surah Nisa 4:1)

Iska matlab ye hai ki Allah ke nazdeek aurat aur mard dono barabar insaan hain. Paidaish ya insaniyat ke maamle me kisi me koi kami ya badhat nahi hai.

---

2. Amal aur Sawaab me Barabari

Qur’an (Surah Al-Ahzab 33:35) me saaf kaha gaya hai ki nek aamaal karne par mard aur aurat dono ko barabar sawaab aur jannat ka waada hai.

Yani Allah ke yahan koi gender difference nahi, fark sirf taqwa aur neeyat ka hai.

---

3. Zimmedariyon me Fark, Darje me Nahi

Islam ne aurat aur mard ko alag-alag zimmedariyan di hain, lekin iska matlab ye nahi ki koi upar ya neeche hai.

• Mard par ghar ka kharch aur hifazat ki zimmedari hai.

• Aurat par ghar aur bachchon ki parvarish ka bahut aham farz hai.

Ye fark fitrat (nature) ki buniyad par hai, na ki insaniyat ki kami-badhi par.

---

4. Kuch Jagah Par Alag Haqooq

• Mahr (shadi par diya jaane wala tohfa) sirf aurat ka haq hai.

• Kharch (nafaqa) dena mard ka farz hai; aurat par laazim nahi, chahe wo ameer hi kyu na ho.

• Ibaadat me bhi auraton ko asaani di gayi hai, jaise haiz ya beemari ke dino me chhoot.

5. Galatfahmi Kahan Hoti Hai?

Kai baar Islami hukm ki galat tashreeh ya cultural rasmein aurat ko kamtar dikhati hain. Asal me ye Islam ki wajah se nahi, balki samaj aur rivaaj ki wajah se hota hai.

 “Mard uncha aur aurat neeche nahi hai.
   Mard ko aurat par koi fazilat nahi hai.
   Sharf-e-insaniyat ko dono barabari se share karte hain,
   dono ek-dusre me se hi hain.”
                                                  — Dr. Israr Ahmed

Yahan ek baat aur samajhna zaroori hai —

Kabhi khud ko kisi se compare nahi karna chahiye. Islam mein comparison aur ghamand (غرور) ko pasand nahi kiya gaya hai, kyunki ghamand shaitan ka fitna hai.Insaan ko kabhi khud ko doosron se behtar samajhne ki galti nahi karni chahiye.Yehi galti Iblees ne ki thi.Iblees hamesha se shaitan nahi tha wo Allah ki ibaadat karne wala ek jin tha, itna zyada ibaadat guzar ke Allah ne use farishton ke saath rehne ka maqam ata kiya.Lekin jab Allah ne Adam (عليه السلام) ko paida kiya aur sab ko unhein sajda karne ka hukm diya,to Iblees ne inkaar kar diya.

Usne kaha:

 “Main usse behtar hoon, mujhe aag 

  se paida kiya gaya haiaur use mitti se.”

Yahi uska ghamand tha —

Aur isi ghamand ne usse Allah ki rehmat se door kar diya.Allah ne uska maqam cheen liya,kyunki Allah ke nazdeek sabse nafrat ki cheez takabbur (arrogance) hai. Isliye Islam humein sikhata hai ke na khud ko kisi se kam samjho aur na hi kisi se behtar —balke shukar, ajizi aur apni islaah par tawajjoh do

Auorat ko ghar ki zimmedari di gayi hai, jo bilkul asaan kaam nahi. Wo ghar ke kaam, bacche ki parvarish me itna ulaj jati hai ki khud ka khayal rakhna bhi mumkin nhi ho pata. 
Wahi mard apna ghar basane ke liye ghar se bahar nikalta hai, kaam karta hai mehnat karta hai, apne ghar walo se biwi baccho se dur rehta hai. Eid bakrid ghar ke functions me absence infact pardesh me wo agar bimar bhi ho jaye to use waha dekhne wala koi nhi hota. Kuch aisi zimmedariya hai jo mard aur aurat dono ko milke karni chahiye jaise ki Family me pyaar aur bonding maintain karna, Bachchon ko sahi aur galat ka fark sikhana, Ghar ke kaam me mutual help, cleaning, cooking me participate karna aur sabse zaroori Family ke problems ko milke solve karna.

Yahan mujhe ek line yaad aati hai jo ladko ke conditions me bilkul perfect lagti hai:

  “Aansoo, dukh, takleef aur gham
    sab chhupana padhta hai,
    hum ladke hain janab,
    hume ghar basane ke liye,

   ghar se door jana padhta hai.”

Conclusion

Islam aurat ko mard se kamtar nahi maanta. Islam dono ko unki fitrat ke mutabiq barabar haq aur zimmedariyan deta hai. Barabari ka matlab “ek jaisa hona” nahi, balki insaaf ke paimane par barabar hona hai.
