Deen Ki Aqamat: Maqsad-e-Risalat - Dr Israr Ahmad

This lecture clarifies the meaning of establishing religion (Deen) as discussed in Surah Ash-Shura. It addresses differing interpretations regarding whether it refers to political dominance or the upholding of fundamental beliefs. Dr. Israr Ahmad argues that establishing Deen fundamentally means upholding Tawhid—the oneness of God—through both belief and righteous action. He emphasizes that the primary purpose of prophets was to deliver the message, encourage self-purification (Tazkiyah), and remind people of God, but also to demonstrate the practical application of the Deen. He differentiates between the core mission of all prophets – delivery and purification – and the unique aspect of Prophet Muhammad’s mission, which included the complete establishment of the Deen in practice. The lecture further clarifies that establishing justice is also a crucial part of the prophetic mission, as highlighted in various verses of the Quran.
