In this article we will continue our discussion regarding The Treatise of Rights by Imam Zayn Al-Abidin (AS). We will discuss the Right of the Hand. Regarding this, the Imam (AS) has said:
And the right of your hand is that you stretch it not toward that which is unlawful to you. Should you do so, you will be chastised by God in the future. And you are not secure from the blameful tongue of the people now, either. Do not prevent your hands from performing what God has made obligatory for them. You should honor your hands in such a way as to prevent them from engaging in many of the deeds that are not allowed for them. You should let them engage in many deeds that are not harmful for them. If they are used by the intellect and with honor now, then they are bound to receive a good reward in the future.
In the Holy Quran the Hands have been defined in several ways. It is sometimes used to represent possession of rule as in the following verse:
Say: "O God! Lord of Power (and Rule), Thou givest power to whom Thou pleasest, and Thou strippest off power from whom Thou pleasest: Thou enduest with honour whom Thou pleasest, and Thou bringest low whom Thou pleasest: In Thy hand is all good. Verily, over all things Thou hast power.” [The Holy Qur’an, Al-i-Imran 3:26]
In other places, it is used to indicate stinginess or generosity as in the following verse:
The Jews say: "God's hand is tied up." Be their hands tied up and be they accursed for the (blasphemy) they utter. Nay, both His hands are widely outstretched: He giveth and spendeth (of His bounty) as He pleaseth. But the revelation that cometh to thee from God increaseth in most of them their obstinate rebellion and blasphemy. Amongst them we have placed enmity and hatred till the Day of Judgment. Every time they kindle the fire of war, God doth extinguish it; but they (ever) strive to do mischief on earth. And God loveth not those who do mischief.” [The Holy Qur’an, al-Ma’ida 5:64]
In other places, it is used to refer to possession of power as in the following verse:
“And commemorate Our Servants Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, possessors of Power and Vision.” [The Holy Qur’an, Saad 38:45]
We can notice that our hands our probably one of the most used part of the human body. It is through our hands that we choose to do what is right and avoid what is wrong. Allah (SWT) has given us these hands, and the best way to show him that we are indeed thankful is to use them in a correct manner.
