9) THE WISE QUEEN OF ANTS!!
This ant was the QUEEN or the leader of the whole community of ants.
Without being selfish and running away alone, she informed the whole community so that their lives could also be saved.
She said to them-
"O ants, enter your dwellings so that you do not get crushed by Sulaiman and his soldiers while they are unaware." (27:18)
Scholars mention that Sulaiman ‘alayhis salaam was such a humble and just leader that every creature of his land knew that he could not do something evil or bad intentionally.
So here also, the queen of ant was very well aware that Sulaiman Alayhis Salaam would not crush them if he will see them, but for self protection, it is important to run inside holes.
Before proceeding, let us grab some important lessons we get from the story of ants and their queen:
• DISCIPLINE
• TEAM WORK
• NOT BEING SELFISH
• THINKING GOOD ABOUT PEOPLE AROUND US.
• SELF- PROTECTION IS ALSO VERY IMPORTANT ALONG WITH FAITH ON ALLAH.
[Ye jo Cheemti thi wo apni qaum ki MALIKA thi.
Khud-gharz hone ke bajaye aur apne aap andar bhaagne ke bajaye usne apni baki qaum ko aagah kiya taake un sab ki jaane bhi mehfooz ho sake.
Usne un sab se kaha-
"Ae cheemtiyo! Apne apne bilo mei dakhil ho jayo taake Sulaiman aur uska lashkar tumhe kuchal na de halaanke wo shaoor bhi na rakhte ho (yani wo jaante bhi na ho ke hum yaha hai.)"
Muffasireen kehte hai ke Sulaiman ‘alayhis salaam is qadar naram aur insaaf pasand hukmaraan the ke unki zameen ki choti choti makhlooqo ko bhi pata tha ke wo kisi par na-haq zulm nahi karenge.
To is cheemti ko bhi ye yaqeen tha ke agar wo unhe dekh lenge to wo unhe nahi maarenge lekin khud ki hifazat ke liye, bilo mei jaana zaroori tha.
Aage badhne se pehle, Cheemtiyo aur unki malika se jo hume sabaq seekhne ko mile hai us par ghaur karna zaroori hai-
•Behtreen tarteeb (discipline)
• Ikhatha hoke kaam karna (team work)
• Khud-gharz na hona
• Logo ke baare mei accha gumaan rakhna
•ALLAH pe tawakkul ke sath sath apni hifazat ya bachao ki bhi tayyari karna.]
