Commentary
Laa tasubbuu –
(Do not revile), it is a command of prohibition, which has been made from sabbun. Sabbun means
“to abuse, to use insulting language, to reproach, to hate”.
‘Adwan –
(wrongfully, disrespectfully), Second form of ‘Adw is ‘udwaan,
actually which means “moving beyond the proper limits”. Here it aims
“disrespectful, revilement”.
It seems clearly from the
previous verses that the Muslims should not use insulting language for others
needlessly, but they should draw their entire attention to correct their
religious beliefs and prove before the world by their behavior, manners and
character that they are most distinguished among the entire human beings. We
have already known earlier that these are the actual meanings of preaching.
It has also been understood in
the previous verses that all kinds of people will live in the world. Attempt to
annihilate one another or intention of overpowering and imposing oneself over
other people is needless, waste of time and choosing the habits of wild
ravenous by giving up the way of mankind.
Holy Qur’an teaches:
Don’t take the initiative to quarrel with any person. Don’t make anyone enemy
of yours due to own way of deed. You should treat them with good behavior also,
who do not trouble you but deal well. Establish safety and peace mutually. Your
attention should be in the direction that you are seen ahead of all and
superior to entire people in good works and morality. If your nature will be
quarrelsome for others, then your entire time will be lost among them and you
will not be able to act as it is required for setting yourselves right and own
correction according to the prescribed way of Holy Qur’an.
The same object has been
explained more clearly in the verse under discussion. It is commanded that the
Muslims should neither revile the gods of other people, whether those belong to
any religion, nor use insulting language for any of them and nor hate, because
in its result, they will begin to revile your Worshipped (Allah Almighty)
disrespectfully and wrongfully being ignorant (Let’s flee to God). And this
type of emotion is quite natural as it will be discussed in forthcoming
lessons. It is that golden principle, which should be tied firmly in knots.
Abstract of
this description comes out that if you will abuse someone or any of his
venerable, certainly will he revile you, your relatives and venerable. So you
should control your tongue and bear in mind that none should be scorned by your
any kind of talk or deed, otherwise he will hold you also in the extreme
contempt.
