“(O Muhammad!) Thus did We make for every Prophet enemies from among those immersed in evil. Your Lord suffices you as a Guide and a Helper.”
(Al-Qur’ān 25:31)
In this Qur’ānic ayat the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be to him) is told that the unbelievers’ enmity towards him is nothing new. The unbelievers had always been inimical to the Prophets. Whenever any Prophet called people to the Truth, the evil-doers of the time ganged up in opposition. This is enough to show that this is the Divine Law. Hence, one ought to be patient and face the inevitable adversities with a cool head and firm determination. Moreover, one should do so without expecting that hosts of people will rush to embrace the Truth and that the evil-doers will hasten to repent and instantly take the fealty.
To say that God is the Guide does not simply mean that He grants people knowledge of the Truth. It also means that He provides directives by means of which the Islamic movement is enabled to function properly. He also gives timely Guidance to the Islamic movement so that it is able to defeat the designs of its enemies.
In short, God’s Help and Guidance is always sufficient for the believers; they have no need for any other assistance. The only requirement in this regard is that the believers should have full Faith and absolute trust in God. Then, instead of sitting idle, they will do their utmost in their encounter against falsehood in order to make Truth prevail.
