76. When the night grew dark upon him he beheld a star.
He said: This is my Lord. But when it set, he said: I love not things that
set.
77. And when he saw the moon uprising, he exclaimed:
This is my Lord. But when it set, he said: Unless my Lord guide me, I surely
shall become one of the folk who are
astray.

Commentary
Janna –
(covered), it is an active verb, Origin of which is Jannun. Jannun means
“to cover, to hide”. The word Januun is a production of the
same origin, which means “concealment, to disappear, to set, to be hidden”. The
word Jinn (demon) has also been derived from it, which is a
hidden creature and cannot be seen with human eyes. Here it aims “to be hidden
in darkness”.
‘Afala – (set,
disappeared), it is an intransitive verb, and its origin is ‘Afuul (to
set, to disappear, to conceal). The word “’afala” is also from its
Subject; that is to say “a doer, an agent, a nominative”.
It was described in the verse
of previous lesson # 836 that when Prophet Abraham (peace be upon Him) gave up
the idols; knowing them useless, then Allah Almighty brightened His wisdom
more and He understood that not only the idols are useless but entire things of
the world, whether those are seen very splendid, are not able of Divinity (to
be God), though the people have considered them also gods. It was still
childhood of Prophet Abraham (peace be upon Him) that He began to think in this
Matter. The same has been described in this verse and forthcoming verses.
It is
commanded that He (peace be upon Him) saw a bright star in the sky during the
darkness of the night. He thought: Perhaps it is God and my Lord. After some
time, when it disappeared, His heart decided: Such things which set, cannot be
God. Later on, He (peace be upon Him) saw the moon uprising and imagined about
its Godhead by looking its splendor. That also vanished after a while, and then
He said: Unless my Lord guide me towards His own Path, I surely shall
become one of the folk who are astray. This event of Prophet Abraham (peace be
upon Him) is a fine allegory for thinking about The Noble Personage of Allah Almighty.
