Also, Allah said,<br />

ا‏‎4َ9ْ‎‏َt‏ُ‏ وEَeَ‎‏َاهُ‏ إ‎6ِ‎‏َ{‏ ‏|ِ$َطٍ‏ ٍHIِ@َ9ْ&;`<br />

He (Allah) chose him (as an intimate friend) and guided<br />

him to a straight path, (16:121)<br />

and,<br />

إ‎6ِ‎‏َ{‏ ‏|ِ$َطِ‏ اHIِGَjْ6‎‏ِ‏ Eْe.َZ‏ُوHُe‏ْ‏<br />

And lead them on to the way of flaming Fire (Hell). (37:23)<br />

Similarly, Allah said,<br />

وَإِ-‏‎5‎‏^َ‏ Eْ]َ9َ6‎‏ِى إ‎6ِ‎‏َ{‏ ‏|ِ$َطٍ‏ ٍHIِ@َ9ْ&;`<br />

And verily, you (O Muhammad) are indeed guiding<br />

(mankind) to the straight path. (42:52)<br />

and,<br />

اEْFَGْ6‎‏ُ‏ َِVD اk56‎‏ِى Eَe‏َا-َ.‏ ‎6‎‏ِ[َk‏َا<br />

All praise and thanks be to Allah, Who has guided us to<br />

this. (7:43)<br />

meaning, guided us and directed us and qualified us<br />

for this end - Paradise.<br />

The Meaning of As-Sirat Al-Mustaqim, the Straight Path<br />

As for the meaning of As-Sirat Al-Mustaqim, Imam Abu Jafar At-Tabari<br />

said,<br />

"The Ummah agreed that Sirat Al-Mustaqim, is the clear path<br />

without branches, according to the language of the Arabs. For<br />

instance, Jarir bin `Atiyah Al-Khatafi said in a poem,<br />

`The Leader of the faithful is on a path that will remain<br />

straight even though the other paths are crooked.''<br />

At-Tabari also stated that, "There are many evidences to this<br />

fact.''<br />

At-Tabari then proceeded,<br />

"The Arabs use the term, Sirat in reference to every deed<br />

and statement whether righteous or wicked. Hence the<br />

Arabs would describe the honest person as being straight<br />

and the wicked person as being crooked.<br />

The straight path mentioned in the Qur'an refers to Islam."<br />

Imam Ahmad recorded in his Musnad that An-Nawwas bin Sam`an<br />

said that the Prophet said,<br />

Allah has set an example:<br />

a Sirat (straight path) that is surrounded by two walls on<br />

both sides, with several open doors within the walls<br />

covered with curtains. There is a caller on the gate of the<br />

Sirat who heralds,<br />

'O people! Stay on the path and do not deviate from it.'<br />

Meanwhile, a caller from above the path is also warning<br />

any person who wants to open any of these doors,<br />

'Woe unto you! Do not open it, for if you open it you will<br />

pass through.'<br />

- The straight path is Islam,<br />

- the two walls are Allah's set limits,<br />

- while the doors resemble what Allah has prohibited.<br />

- The caller on the gate of the Sirat is the Book of Allah,<br />

- while the caller above the Sirat is Allah's<br />

admonishment in the heart of every Muslim.<br />

The Faithful ask for and abide by Guidance<br />
