Our Role today is the Same as messangers of 3

The third task is giving glad tidings and warnings

The Da’wah of the messengers to their people was always associated with glad tidings and warnings; it is the way that does not separate from the Da’wah, and because they are so associated with each other, because of that we find the Holy Qur`aan in some verses clarifying the task of the messengers as giving glad tidings and warnings. Allaah Subhaanahu wa Ta`aala says in Soorat Al-Kahf, (Verse 56), what can be translated as, "And we send not the Messengers except as giver of glad tidings and warners."
The Prophet Mohammad sall Allaahu`alayhi wa sallam gave an example about himself in a Hadeeth that was reported by Imaam Bukhaari and Imaam Muslim, "my example and the example of what Allaah has sent me with is like a man who came to a people and said: Oh people, I have seen the army of the enemy with my own eyes, and I am the naked warner, so save yourself, save yourself, so a group among his people obeyed him, so they moved early before dawn, they withdrew slowly and saved themselves from the enemy. And the other group among his people disbelieved in him and remained in their places, and in the early morning the army of the enemy got to them, destroyed them and ran all over them. So this is the example of the one who obeyed me and followed what I was sent with, and the example of the one who disobeyed me and disbelieved the truth that I came with."
The messengers, when giving glad tidings and warnings to the people, they were applicable to this life and the Hereafter. Allaah Subhaanahu wa Ta`aala says in Soorat An-Nahl, (Verse 97), what can be translated as, "Whoever works righteousness, whether male or female, while he (or she) is a true believer verily, to him We will give a good life (meaning in this worldly life)," and also the Messengers gave glad tidings to the obedients and promised them with dignity, power, and peace in this life. Allaah Subhaanahu wa Ta`aala also says in Soorat An-Noor, (Verse 55), what can be translated as, "Allaah has promised those among you who believe, and do righteous good deeds, that He will certainly grant them succession to (the present rulers) in the earth, as He granted it to those before them, and that He will grant them the authority to practice their D
een, that which He has chosen for them (i.e. Islam). And He will surely give them in exchange a safe security after their fear. They submit to me and do not associate anything with Me…", Also, on the other hand, the messengers warn the disobedients of hardship and punishment in this life before the Hereafter. Allaah Subhaanahu wa Ta`aala says in Soorat Ta-ha, (Verse 124), what can be translated as, "But whosoever turns away from My Reminder (this Qur`aan) verily, for him is a life of hardship, and We shall raise him up blind on the Day of Resurrection. " Allaah Subhaanahu wa Ta`aala also says to the Prophet Mohammad sall Allaahu`alayhi wa sallam in Soorat Fussilat, (Verse 13), what can be translated as, "But if they turn away, then say (O’ Mohammad): "I have warned you of a Sa’iqa (a destructive awful cry, torment, hit a thunder-bolt) like the Sa’iqa which overtook Ad and Thamud (people).
Giving glad tiding and warning like the messengers did is the key to the human soul because the good soul is naturally always seeking the good things for itself and keeping the bad and harm away from itself. If the messengers and the Da’eeyah (caller for Allaah) show the people the good that they will gain from belief and the righteous deed, the people would hurry to gain that good. On the other hand, when it is shown to the people the great harm that would befall a person as a result of disbelief, misguidance and remaining away from the path of Allaah Subhaanahu wa Ta`aala, the people would get scared and hurry to leave all of that.
So, we should not forget the importance of this issue when we play our role in this world. Also we should start with conveying the message in the clearest way, then calling the people to Islam, then giving glad tidings and warnings, and this should be practiced in a balanced careful way without extremes.
Next week, with the help of Allaah Subhaanahu wa Ta`aala, we will continue to learn about the tasks of the great messengers of the past, that is in fact our role and task today.
