English translation of the WASATIA book

143] The rest of the verse reads: “So that you may be held witness overpeople and the Prophet be witness over you.”Thus, a logical interpretation would be:i. God guides whom He will to the right path.ii. God has determined that the right path is onewhich is moderate and centrist.iii. God will hold the faithful and the Prophet to bewitnesses that the Muslim community ismoderate and centrist.Another example is the interpretation of the last verses of al-Fatihah surah: {(5) The path of those whom Thou hast blessed; (6) Notof those who incurred wrath, nor of the astray (7).One interpretation of those last verses is: {(5) The path of thosewhom Thou hast blessed (Muslims); (6) Not of those who incurredwrath (Jews), nor of the astray (Christians) (7).Another interpretation for those same last verses of al-Fatihahsurah is: {(5) The path of those whom Thou hast blessed (Any humanbeing who submitted oneself to God and followed God’s instructions);(6) Not of those who incurred wrath (Any human being who defiedGod), nor of the astray (Any human being who did not follow God’sinstructions).
