Notes
This study is about the servant's behavior such as humiliation while fulfilling his responsibility towards Allah. Since the verse related to our subject is located in the Surah Hucurat, an evaluation will be made within the framework of this verse. During this evaluation, verses with similar characteristics that we think may be relevant will also be included. In addition, not only the historical dimension of the issue will be touched upon, but also attention will be drawn to what kind of attitudes similar to this are exhibited today. As a matter of fact, such behaviors, Hz. It continues in a similar way in the period of the Prophet as well as in later periods. A person who is sent to the world for testing is responsible for fulfilling certain obligations in this context. This is not a choice but a necessity. Because a person's ability to receive rewards in the afterlife and to live a more peaceful life in this world depends on this. Therefore, it is in his favor to fulfill his duty of servitude. Therefore, it is not morally correct for him to try to make others feel grateful for the behavior he fulfilled in accordance with the divine command. Because Allah is never in need of the worship of His servant. There will be people who will worship Him in every period. It is the human being who is in need. Since everything he has is at the discretion of Allah, he needs Allah's help and support throughout his life, and even more so in the afterlife. The main goal of our study is to reveal opinions about what kind of attitude people should have when fulfilling their responsibilities of servitude. In this context, the position of the creator and where the servant should stand in the face of this will be explained. While the Creator is in the highest position, human beings are just one of the things he created. Of course, giving man responsibility, unlike other beings, has increased his value in the sight of God. However, this value is valid as long as he fulfills his responsibility of servitude. Otherwise, he will descend to a lower level than all creatures. No matter how valuable a person is, he must be aware of how helpless he is in front of his creator and that he is always in need of him. If he is not aware of this, his acts of worship and good behavior will have no value in the sight of Allah. Because he could not behave as He wanted towards the being for whom He was responsible. If he does this consciously, the cost will of course be heavier. The belief dimension of the issue is of greater importance. As a matter of fact, a person who appreciates Allah properly and knows His power well will need to determine his attitudes accordingly. In this context, knowing well the meaning of Allah's attributes and the dimensions of these attributes reflected on His servants will make the subject more understandable. Because the way to know Allah is to know His attributes. Another issue related to the subject is to show the necessary respect to the messengers sent by Allah, both in their lives and in the context of the scientific legacy they left behind. In this context, in our opinion, it will be necessary to act with the knowledge that the hadiths that have come down to us authentically are interpretations of the Quran. Because they are not people acting on their own, but chosen people who fulfill their duties according to God's commands. Therefore, disrespect towards them will be considered as disrespect towards Allah. It seems that the Bedouins acted unconsciously in this issue we are discussing. These people who are new Muslims or claim to be Muslims are Hz. They had an excessive attitude towards the Prophet. This incident occurred not once but several times in similar ways. As we have just mentioned, these behaviors will actually be considered disrespectful to God. It is known that they act with purely worldly motives. Because they have revealed that they are pursuing material worldly interests instead of receiving good news, prayers and advice for the afterlife. Verses were sent down on the subject to set an example for people who will come and exhibit the same behavior in later periods. In response to their attitude, Hz. It is admirable that the Prophet maintained his peace and behaved tolerantly instead of responding to them in kind. Muslims living in later periods will also need to be more careful to avoid being subjected to the warning in the verse. This work of ours is about the servant's display of behavior such as ruminating while fulfilling his responsibility to Allah. Since the verse is related to our subject is in the Surah Hucurat, an evaluation will be made within the framework of this verse. During this evaluation, verses with similar characteristics that we think may be relevant will also be included. In addition, it will not only touch on the historical dimension of the issue, but also draw attention to what kind of attitudes are exhibited today. Indeed, such behavior It continues in the same way in later periods as it did in the period of the Prophet. The person sent to the world for a test is responsible for fulfilling some obligations in this context. This is not a choice but a necessity. This is because man's being rewarded in the hereafter and living a more peaceful life in this world depend on this. Therefore, it is in his favor to fulfill his duty of servitude. For this reason, it is not morally correct to try to make others feel grateful for the behavior he fulfilled in accordance with the divine command. Because Allah is never in need of a servant's worship. There will always be people who will serve Him. It is the human being that is in need. Since everything he owns is at Allah's discretion, he needs Allah's help and support throughout his life, and even more so in the hereafter. The main goal of our study is to reveal opinions about how people should behave while fulfilling their servitude responsibility. In this context, the position of the creator and the issue of where the servant should stand against it will be explained. While the creator is at the highest position, man is only one of the things that he created. Of course, being given responsibility, unlike other beings, has increased the value of man in the sight of Allah. But this value is valid as long as he fulfills his servitude responsibility. Otherwise, he will descend to a lower level than all creatures. No matter how valuable a person is, he has to be aware of how helpless he is in front of his creator and that he is always in need of him. If he is not aware of this, the worship and good behavior he will perform will have no value in the sight of Allah. Because he could not behave in the way he wanted against the being he was responsible for. If he does this on purpose, of course, the price will be higher. The belief part of the issue is of greater importance. As a matter of fact, a person who appreciates Allah properly and knows His power well will need to determine his attitudes accordingly. In this context, knowing what the attributes of Allah mean and what the dimensions of these attributes are reflected in the servants will make the subject more understandable. Because the way to know Allah is to know His attributes. Another relevant issue is to show the necessary respect to the messengers sent by Allah, both in their lives and in the context of the knowledge they left behind. In this context, it will be necessary in our opinion to act with the knowledge that the hadiths that have reached us authentically are interpretations of the Qur'an. Because they are not people acting on their own, but chosen people who fulfill their duties according to Allah's orders. Therefore, disrespect to them will be considered as disrespect to God. It is seen that the Bedouins acted unconsciously on this issue that we are focusing on. These people who are new Muslims or claim to be Muslims. They had an extreme attitude towards the Prophet. This event did not occur once, but several times in similar ways. As we have just mentioned, their behavior will actually be considered disrespectful to Allah. It is known that they act with purely worldly motivations. Because, instead of receiving good news, prayer and advice for the hereafter, they have revealed that they are after worldly interests in material terms. Verses on the subject have been revealed to set an example for people who will follow this attitude and show the same behavior in the future. In response to their behavior. It is admirable that the Prophet kept his calm and behaved tolerantly instead of responding to them in kind. Muslims living in later periods will also need to be more careful not to be exposed to the warning in the verse.
