Role of Mohammad in our life -

The one who carefully relates, examines, and integrates all incoming information -everything that passes between the ears - before accepting and applying it in life is, in truth, referring back to one’s own pure Allah, that is, the uncorrupted conscience, and to one’s own Mohammad, the faculty of sound judgment and common sense.

To “obey Allah and obey the Rasul” is, in essence, not a call to the worship of an unseen external deity or to the uncritical following of a holy historical figure. Rather, it is a profound directive to remain faithful to one’s inner moral compass (Allah) and to heed the articulating voice of that conscience (Rasul Allah). The Quranic command أَطِيعُوا اللَّهَ وَالرَّسُولَ signifies alignment with our inherent script - Al-Kitab, the inner law - through the active engagement of intellect and discernment.

When ʿaql - intellect infused with common sense - is fully awakened, a person manifests the quality of Mohammad: one who investigates, verifies, and consciously approves every piece of information before allowing it to shape action. Mohammad never follows anything blindly. It always aligns with the pure Conscience (Allah). In this sense, anyone who studies attentively, scrutinizes carefully, and evaluates thoughtfully before implementation embodies the Mohammad described in the Quran - not as a historical figure, but as an ever-living epistemic function within the human being.

The true approver and validator of all informational impulses - whether they appear as insight (wahi), knowledge (ʿilm), or transmitted reports (nabiyyeen, informational signals) must pass through Mohammad, that is, intellect operating through disciplined common sense. Without this internal Mohammad, no information can be trusted, and no inspiration can be authenticated.

If intellect and common sense remain dormant, genuine inspiration never truly arrives. What follows instead is herd consciousness: imitation without understanding, repetition without verification, and obedience without awareness. Such a state replaces living guidance with borrowed certainty and transforms the human being from a conscious evaluator into a passive receiver.

Thus, obedience in its truest sense is not submission to external authority, but fidelity to inner clarity - where pure conscience guides, intellect judges, and understanding precede action.

Summary of first five verses of Surah Baqarah

 Summary of first five verses of Surah Baqarah

The opening verses (1–5) of Surah al-Baqarah describe Al-Kitab as a compiled inner script in which there is no doubt - a script that holds guidance for all of humanity. Yet this guidance is not understood by everyone; it requires certain inner conditions.

First, one must be conscious and cautious of one's own conscience (mutaqeen) in order to receive the guidance of the Kitab - the inner script. To be muttaqi is to remain alert, not overconfident, not hasty, not driven by greed, insecurity, or fear. It is to cultivate a quiet trust in oneself (momin).

Second, one must persist in believing in the unseen (ghayb), for what descends from the inner Kitab is not already known. The instructions of Al-Kitab are unfamiliar, arising from dimensions we cannot grasp without being cautious; therefore belief in the instinctive sense, the metaphysical aspect of the script, becomes essential - because what is store for us is not immediately known but we need to be patient (sabr) and constant in our connection (salat) with the inner script (Al-Kitab).

Third, believing in bil-ghayab means believing in a future map of guidance - entirely unseen and unknown - yet crafted uniquely different for each of us. We must connect ourselves to this unseen path and establish the 24x7 process of connection (Salah), applying it continuously to our own being. What matters is not expertise in any external language but faith in one’s inner script (Al-Kitab).

We are called to trust the unknown instructions, the mercurial power of our own conscience, our own script to receive the guidance that arises from within it, to nurture what descends from it, and to remain ever conscious of the conscience itself.

Those who trust their inner script and recognize the quiet voice of their pure conscience are mutaqi. They do not reject what their inner knowing affirms. They allow their actions to reflect and align with their inner script. They walk with awareness, trust, and sincerity.

These are the ones who implement the pure guidance of their inner script (al-kitab) and through this alignment they find the state of peace, balance, and success.
