Joke with Holy Qur’aan - Quran Chapter 6 – 68 (Pt-7, Stg-2) (L-829) - درس قرآن


Quran Chapter 6 – 68 (Pt-7, Stg-2) (L-829) - درس قرآن

Joke with Holy Qur’aan

Surah ‘Al-‘An-‘aam (Cattle) – Chapter – 6)

‘A-‘uu-zu  Billaahi minash-Shay-taanir- Rajiim. 
(I seek refuge in God from Satan the outcast)

Bis-Millaahir-Rah-maanir-Rahiim.

(In the name of God, the Beneficent, the Merciful)

   وَإِذَا رَأَيْتَ ٱلَّذِينَ يَخُوضُونَ فِىٓ ءَايَٰتِنَا فَأَعْرِضْ عَنْهُمْ حَتَّىٰ يَخُوضُوا۟ فِى حَدِيثٍ غَيْرِهِۦ وَإِمَّا يُنسِيَنَّكَٱلشَّيْطَٰنُ فَلَا تَقْعُدْ بَعْدَ ٱلذِّكْرَىٰ مَعَ ٱلْقَوْمِ ٱلظَّٰلِمِينَ 68

68.  And when Thou seest those who meddle with Our Revelations, withdraw from them until they meddle with another topic. And if the devil cause thee to forget, sit not, after the remembrance, with the wrongdoing people.             
68.  Wa  ‘izaa  ra-‘ay-tallaziina  yakhuu-zuuna  fiii  ‘AayaatiNaa  fa-‘a’-riz  ‘anhum  hattaa  yakhuuzuu  fii  hadiisin  gayrih.  Wa  ‘immaa  yunsi-yannakash-Shaytaanu  falaa  taq-‘ud  ba’-daz-zikraa  ma-‘al  qaw-miz-zaalimiin.                

Commentary

Yakhuu-zuuna – this word has been derived from Khawz. Its actual meanings are “to enter in to water” which aims “to start talking about any matter”. Yakhuu-zuun means “when they start talking about the Verses of Holy Qur’aan”. This type of talking by the disbelievers was for jesting purpose always. And they used to joke with the Revelations of Holy Qur’aan. Second time use of this word in this Verse will be meant as “to engage”.

It was expounded in the previous verse that the people of Makkah deny the Revelations of Holy Qur’aan, but in fact these Revelations are quite True. Then Messenger of Allah Almighty (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him) was commanded that He should proclaim: I have only Holy Qur’aan, whether you hear it or otherwise, I shall cause to hear you constantly.

Behavior of the disbelievers with Holy Qur’aan was that they used to recite the verses of Holy Qur’aan by infringing its words. By producing false meanings of the verses, they used to jest and joke with them. Their main aim was that the people should take it easy (know it as an ordinary thing) and emphasize it not.

It has been instructed in this verse that whenever these people disrespect the Revelations of Holy Qur’aan, recite them making faces or tell their such meanings that the hearers laugh, and despite causing to know, they do not refrain from doing so, then you should leave them.

It is commanded: O Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him)! Whenever you observe that these people are mocking with Holly Qur’aan, then you should withdraw from them. However, when they stop treating with contempt and begin to talk upon any other matter, then there is nothing wrong to sit with them. If Satan causes you to forget anytime that you had to withdraw from them in such condition, then you should get up from that place immediately after remembrance, because they are wrongdoing people and by meddling with Holly Qur’aan they are harming their own. You should not have any concern with such ignorant and uncivilized people. It is evident from here that maintaining the Dignity and Greatness of Holly Qur’an and its respect is our responsibility. You should be separate from them and express your displeasure for them, who contempt it, explain its meanings wrongfully and do as they desire.

A term has been fixed for everything - Chapter 6 – 66 & 67 (Pt-7, Stg-2) (L-828) - درس قرآن


Quran Chapter 6 – 66 & 67 (Pt-7, Stg-2) (L-828) - درس قرآن

A term has been fixed for everything

Surah ‘Al-‘An-‘aam (Cattle) – Chapter – 6)

‘A-‘uu-zu  Billaahi minash-Shay-taanir- Rajiim. 
(I seek refuge in God from Satan the outcast)

Bis-Millaahir-Rah-maanir-Rahiim.

(In the name of God, the Beneficent, the Merciful)

  وَكَذَّبَ بِهِۦ قَوْمُكَ وَهُوَ ٱلْحَقُّ قُل لَّسْتُ عَلَيْكُم بِوَكِيلٍ 66

لِّكُلِّ نَبَإٍ مُّسْتَقَرٌّ وَسَوْفَ تَعْلَمُونَ 67

66.  Thy people (O Muhammad) have denied it, though it is the Truth. Say: I am not a Keeper over you.

67.  For every announcement there is a term, and ye will come to know.           
66.  Wa  kazzaba  bihii  qawmuka  wa  huwal-Haqq.  Qul-lastu  ‘alaykum  bi-Wakiil.

67.  Likulli  naba-‘im-musta-qarrunw-wa  sawfa  ta’-lamuun.              

Commentary

It was described in the previous verse, “See how We expound the Revelations (in the Holy Qur’aan), so that they may understand” and accept that it is quite Just and Correct, which has been written in the Scripture and that is sufficient for their guidance. Now it is their perverseness, which these people demand more Signs than It.

“We send only so much Revelations which may be understood by the human being, but if these people do not use their sense, then they should admit by the Talks of Our Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him). And certainly they would have believed but their unreasonable desires and fondness of worldly celebrity and show has prevented them to choose the Truth. And they falsify Our Word “Holy Qur’aan” whereas It is entirely Just and True”.  

It is commanded: O Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him)! Your people have denied it, though it is the Truth. Now they leave the high-road plain from listening its Revelations and demand astonishing tokens so that they may put off. Say to them: I am not a Keeper over you to guide you by force. I have come only to cause to hear and understand you the Holy Qur’aan. There are abundant promises of rewards for you. And if you do not admit, then there are many warnings of punishment and anguish upon you. Now it depends upon you – either believe or disbelieve! However, I tell you more that those promises and warnings, which have been mentioned in it, certainly shall be fulfilled.

Simply it is the matter that for every announcement there is a term. That will be done surely, when the time will come. Understand it that the decision has been finalized of every happening, and the news about it has been described in the Holy Qur’aan. Sooner or later, it is certain that, that shall happen. If you don’t understand now, it does not matter; you will come to know everything when the time will come. It is a proverb of Arabic language: Kullu  maa  huwa  ‘aatin  ‘aatin, that is to say; certainly that thing shall come (happen), which has to come.

It is known clearly from these verses that for goodness of the human being, it is incumbent for him to go the Way prescribed by Holy Qur’aanZaalikal-Kitaabu  laa  rayba  fiiH. (This is the Scripture whereof there is no doubt, a guidance unto those who ward off evil) 2:2. There is neither accommodation of any doubt in any Word of Holy Qur’aan, nor there is any such word in It, which may be against the wisdom of any wise person.

Therefore, every person can believe in it without any hesitation. It is impossible that consequence of Its true believer would be bad. However, any disbeliever can get nothing at last but regret, sorrow and grief. Locality of believing in it is only life of this world; otherwise there will be no time of believing after it.

God can send doom of every kind - Quran Chapter 6 – 65 (Pt-7, Stg-2) (L-827) - درس قرآن


Quran Chapter 6 – 65 (Pt-7, Stg-2) (L-827) - درس قرآن

God can send doom of every kind

Surah ‘Al-‘An-‘aam (Cattle) – Chapter – 6)

‘A-‘uu-zu  Billaahi minash-Shay-taanir- Rajiim. 
(I seek refuge in God from Satan the outcast)

Bis-Millaahir-Rah-maanir-Rahiim.

(In the name of God, the Beneficent, the Merciful)

 قُلْ هُوَ ٱلْقَادِرُ عَلَىٰٓ أَن يَبْعَثَ عَلَيْكُمْ عَذَابًا مِّن فَوْقِكُمْ أَوْ مِن تَحْتِ أَرْجُلِكُمْ أَوْ يَلْبِسَكُمْ شِيَعًاوَيُذِيقَ بَعْضَكُم بَأْسَ بَعْضٍ ٱنظُرْ كَيْفَ نُصَرِّفُ ٱلْءَايَٰتِ لَعَلَّهُمْ يَفْقَهُونَ 65

65.  Say:  He is Able to send punishment upon you from above you or from beneath your feet, or to bewilder you with dissension and make you taste the tyranny one of another. See how We expound the Revelations so that they may understand.
65.  Qul  Huwal-Qaadiru  ‘alaaa  ‘any-yab-‘asa  ‘alaykum  ‘azaabam-min  fawqikum  ‘aw  min  tahti  ‘arjuli-kum  ‘aw  yal-bisakum  shiya  ‘anw-wa  yuziiqa  ba’-zakum-  ba’-sa  ba’-z.  ‘Unzur  kayfa  Nusarriful-  ‘Aayaati  la-‘allahum  yafqahuun. 

Commentary

We learnt in the previous lesson that Allah Almighty is He Who delivers the human being from entire afflictions and the humankind inclines unto Him willing or unwilling during the time of helplessness, because his own strength and power becomes useless. Therefore it is natural, if the mankind thinks about any Supreme Power.

It was required that after the condition of helplessness he would have remembered also Allah Almighty and comprehended that only He is Who delivered from affliction, but he does not do so. Moreover either he forgets Him totally, or attributes others too as partners unto Him.

It has been expounded in this verse that if you will not know Him by means of His help, then you should remember: He is Able to send punishment upon you also. Then either will He annihilate you entirely, for instance; by sending dust storm from the sky, rain of stones and thunder etc. earthquakes and floods from the land etc. by which; previous nations were annihilated, or by sowing dissension and separating you in different sects, will cause you to taste the quarrel and enmity among you, and lose your ease and comfort. Consider thoughtfully now upon the subject of this verse.

Allah Almighty addresses His Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him): Declare (upon them who disbelieve)! Allah Almighty has Power to send punishment upon you. For example; dust from the sky, or earthquake from the land etc. or by separating in different sects that you begin to quarrel with one another mutually yourselves.

It is evident from this verse that what happens in the world is to drive the human being towards the Straight Path. Allah Almighty created everything like air, water, rain, heat, cold, day and night etc. for advantage of the humankind and these entire things are useful for him without any doubt. He should know Allah Almighty by observing these things.

After that Allah Almighty sent His Messengers (peace be upon Them) from time to time to cause to engage the attention of human being towards these things and to know Him by thinking deeply in to them and they were given Scriptures, in which entire matters were explained before Them.

It has been explained by the religious commentators that many earlier nations were destroyed by dust/rain storm, thunder, flood or earthquakes etc. but nowadays no nation is destroyed all at once by sending such punishments. However, they will be suffering in restlessness and confusion due to mutual indisposition among themselves and sectarianism, and will be given chance to be correct by thinking.

Allah is The Supporter in every trouble - Quran Chapter 6 – 63 & 64 (Pt-7, Stg-2) (L-826) - درس قرآن


Quran Chapter 6 – 63 & 64 (Pt-7, Stg-2) (L-826) - درس قرآن 

Allah is The Supporter in every trouble

Surah ‘Al-‘An-‘aam (Cattle) – Chapter – 6)

‘A-‘uu-zu  Billaahi minash-Shay-taanir- Rajiim. 
(I seek refuge in God from Satan the outcast)

Bis-Millaahir-Rah-maanir-Rahiim.

(In the name of God, the Beneficent, the Merciful)

قُلْ مَن يُنَجِّيكُم مِّن ظُلُمَٰتِ ٱلْبَرِّ وَٱلْبَحْرِ تَدْعُونَهُۥ تَضَرُّعًا وَخُفْيَةً لَّئِنْ أَنجَىٰنَا مِنْ هَٰذِهِۦ لَنَكُونَنَّ مِنَ ٱلشَّٰكِرِينَ 63

 قُلِ ٱللَّهُ يُنَجِّيكُم مِّنْهَاوَمِن كُلِّ كَرْبٍ ثُمَّ أَنتُمْ تُشْرِكُونَ 64

63.  Say: Who delivereth you from the darkness of the land and the sea? Ye call upon Him humbly and in secret, (saying): If He delivers us from this (fear) we truly will be of the thankful.

64.  Say: Allah delivereth you from this and from all afflictions. Yet ye attribute partners unto Him.         
63.  Qul  many-yunajjii-kum-min- zulumaatil-barri  wal-bahri  tad-‘uu-naHuu  tazarru-‘anw-wa  khuf-yah.  La-‘in  ‘anjaanaa  min  haazihii  lana-kuunanna  minash-shaakiriin.

64.  QuLIllaahu  yunajjii-kum-min-haa  wa  min-  kulli  karbin  summa  ‘antum  tushrikuun. 

Commentary

It was declared in the lesson of previous verse that the people will be raised after death and will they be restored unto Allah Almighty, their Lord, the Just. He will inform them very, very soon about the consequence and the result of their deeds. This was indicated by the fact that when at last they have business with Him only, then why should they not recognize Him in the world, and own entire matters should be given in His charge?

The way of “How to know Allah Almighty” has been explained in this verse because this thought rises very forcibly in the heart of mankind “While every work has been being completed with my own effort in the world, then what is need of mine to believe in Allah Almighty”? This misunderstanding is base of human being’s ruin and it should be removed in such manner that “Certainly some such occasions come that the mankind loses his senses and understanding, and he does not know, “What should he do now”? The darkness overcasts upon his thought. These kinds of occasions come at the time of suffering from any sudden disaster, for instance; dust storm, attack of any beast on the land or in the sea or fight against any powerful enemy, in which the personnel become helpless. Whenever nothing remains in own control, then one feels humility and thinks about a Most Powerful, implores silently, earnestly and humbly before Him, and intends stably that “I shall be thankful forever, if am saved from this calamity”.

 This Strongest Power is Allah Almighty and verily He is, Who saves at the time of every severity. Everyone should believe in Him and none should attribute any partner unto Him. It is commanded: Ask them! Whither does your heart intend when you do not have any power at the time of any severe calamity and whom you call beseeching earnestly and humbly? And you say: Save us from this affliction. We truly will be of the thankful always. This is Allah Almighty. He is the Savior from every disaster and affliction. Moreover, when the calamity is over, you forget Allah Almighty and consider your efforts or other things as your saviors and supporters.

Full picture of human life - Quran Chapter 6 – 61 & 62 (Pt-7, Stg-2) (L-825) - درس قرآن


Quran Chapter 6 – 61 & 62 (Pt-7, Stg-2) (L-825) - درس قرآن 

Full picture of human life

Surah ‘Al-‘An-‘aam (Cattle) – Chapter – 6)

‘A-‘uu-zu  Billaahi minash-Shay-taanir- Rajiim. 
(I seek refuge in God from Satan the outcast)

Bis-Millaahir-Rah-maanir-Rahiim.

(In the name of God, the Beneficent, the Merciful)

وَهُوَ ٱلْقَاهِرُ فَوْقَ عِبَادِهِۦ وَيُرْسِلُ عَلَيْكُمْ حَفَظَةً حَتَّىٰٓ إِذَا جَآءَ أَحَدَكُمُٱلْمَوْتُ تَوَفَّتْهُ رُسُلُنَا وَهُمْ لَا يُفَرِّطُونَ 61

  ثُمَّ رُدُّوٓا۟ إِلَى ٱللَّهِ مَوْلَىٰهُمُ ٱلْحَقِّ أَلَا لَهُ ٱلْحُكْمُ وَهُوَ أَسْرَعُ ٱلْحَٰسِبِينَ 62

61.  And He is the Omnipotent over His slaves. He sendeth guardians over you until, when death cometh unto one of you, Our Messengers receive him, and they neglect not.

62.  Then are they restored unto Allah, their Lord, the Just. Surely His is the judgment. And He is the Most Swift of reckoners.        
61.  Wa Huwal-Qaahiru  fawqa  ‘ibaadihii  wa yursilu  ‘alaykum  hafazah.  Hattaaa  ‘izaa  jaaa-‘a  ‘ahada-kumul-mawtu  ta-waffat-hu  rusuluNaa  wa  hum  laa  yufarri-tuun.

62.  Summa  rudduuu  ‘IlAllaahi  Maw-laa-humul-Haqq.  ‘Alaa  lahul-Hukmu  wa  Huwa  ‘Asra-‘ul-haasibiin.

Commentary

It was described in the previous verse that age of the mankind is a collection of some forms and some days. At night he goes to sleep and by the day he gets up and goes to work again. Neither getting up is in his control and nor the work of previous day remains in his memory during falling asleep. Only Allah Almighty raises him and reminds the series of his last day’s works, and he goes to do those works, which were left by him incomplete before going to sleep. The aim to make known from it was that the sleep is also like a death but that is a long sleep. After that, Allah Almighty will raise him again and remind his entire previous deeds and acts, and He will say: Still you have to see the consequence of your works and deeds, and series of your worldly acts has remained incomplete to this respect. Complete it now either by suffering from full punishment as retribution of your worldly wicked and evil acts, or obtaining full reward of your good deeds.

It is commanded that the human being executes his age some time in sleeping and sometimes wakening. He should reflect in it that neither sleeping is in his control, nor wakening. Only Allah Almighty it is Who causes to sleep and raises him again, and even that He reminds him also his daily tasks.  

The result, which comes out from it is that Allah Almighty is the Omnipotent over His slaves every way and sends guardians over their deeds every day. Such a time will come when the Angels of death will come unto them instead of guardian Angels (peace be upon Them) of their works and they will perform their duty fully without any favor or short fall and the mankind will sleep until the Day of Resurrection.

When the long time of their sleep will end, then Allah Almighty will reproduce the human beings from sleep and they will stand before their Real and True Owner. Then they will know completely that the Decision of their fate is only in the Hands of Allah Almighty. There will be no delay in the Court of Allah Almighty. A record of mankind’s stirring deeds relating to their entire worldly life will be handed over to them in a moment. And then, when they will be assured: These are their deeds. By weighing, their good and bad deeds will be separated. According to the weight of every individual’s deeds, human beings will be sent unto their proper places, likewise for suffering from punishment of wicked deeds in to the Fire of the Hell and for enjoying rewards of good acts in to the Paradise.

Man is not conscious even of himself - Quran Chapter 6 – 60 (Pt-7, Stg-2) (L-824) - درس قرآن


Quran Chapter 6 – 60 (Pt-7, Stg-2) (L-824) - درس قرآن 

Man is not conscious even of himself

Surah ‘Al-‘An-‘aam (Cattle) – Chapter – 6)

‘A-‘uu-zu  Billaahi minash-Shay-taanir- Rajiim. 
(I seek refuge in God from Satan the outcast)

Bis-Millaahir-Rah-maanir-Rahiim.

(In the name of God, the Beneficent, the Merciful)

وَهُوَ ٱلَّذِى يَتَوَفَّىٰكُم بِٱلَّيْلِ وَيَعْلَمُ مَا جَرَحْتُم بِٱلنَّهَارِ ثُمَّ يَبْعَثُكُمْ فِيهِ لِيُقْضَىٰٓأَجَلٌ مُّسَمًّى ثُمَّ إِلَيْهِ مَرْجِعُكُمْ ثُمَّ يُنَبِّئُكُم بِمَا كُنتُمْ تَعْمَلُونَ 60

60.  He it is Who gathereth you at night and knoweth that which ye commit by day. Then He raiseth you again to life therein, that the term appointed (for you) may be accomplished. Then afterward unto Him is your return. Then He will proclaim unto you what ye used to do.       
60.  Wa  Hu-wAllazii  yata-waf-faa  kum  bil-layli  wa  ya’-lamu  maa  jarahtum  binnahaari  summa  yab-‘asukum  fiihi  li-yuqzaaa  ‘ajalum-musammaa.  Summaa  ‘ilayHi  marji-‘ukum  summa  yunabbi-‘ukum  bimaa  kuntum  ta’-maluun.             

Commentary

The Extent of the Knowledge of Allah Almighty was expressed in the previous verse, from which it was known that any human being has no power to frame laws, punish and command the people in the world but as much as Allah Almighty bestows upon him in accordance with his extent. Even for making this authority useful, he stumbles everywhere.

Only Guidance of Allah Almighty, which He has sent down by means of His Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him), can save him from destruction, otherwise he continues in close contact with digging an abyss of ruin only for himself being set apart from that Guidance. His tumbling down in that hole is beyond the question, if he does not catch the Guidance strongly.

The same subject has been admonished in this verse in such manner: the humankind should think! Where do his powers and abilities of working go, when he sleeps at night? At that time, neither can he think, nor work. It was discussed in the lesson of previous verse that the mankind is unable to know about his future.

It has been explained in this verse: Even he does not remember the work done by him last day, when he goes to sleep at night. Both things are known only by Allah Almighty because neither slumber overtakes Him nor He needs a sleep. He is Attentive every time about every matter. Even that a human being has not control over himself that he may get up at his own after sleep. Only Allah Almighty raises him, and until death likewise He will continue to raise the mankind in the morning and cause to sleep at night. After death, which should be considered as a long sleep, He will raise again on the Day of Resurrection and put before the human beings up their deeds, done by them during the life of this world. Let’s meditate awhile in the abstract of this verse.



It is commanded: Allah Almighty gathers your presence of mind from you at night when you go to sleep. Even you forget everything during sleep about that, which you commit by day time, but He knows your every commitment. Then He raises you again when the next day begins, so that you may complete your worldly life. At last the life is over and the mankind sleep in such a manner that he rises never. But Allah Almighty will raise him again and put up before him his entire good and bad deeds and acts, which he performed and committed in his previous (worldly) life.

A wonderful map of human life has been drawn in this verse. Age of the mankind is surrounded in the time limit, in which he works in the day time and being tired, sleeps at night. He forgets his entire commitments of the day time. A time will come that he will sleep for a long time and never will rise again in this world. Then after a very long sleep, he will rise on a Day and his entire actions will come in front of him. And he will suffer the consequences of his all actions of the world and will remain living always.

 "Minhaa  khalaqNaa-kum. Wa fiihaa Nu-‘iidukum.   Wa minhaa Nukhrijukum  taaratan  ‘ukhraa" (From the (earth) did We create you. And into it shall We return you. And from it shall We bring you out once again): (The Quran 20:55).

Mafaatih – either this word is plural of Maftah. Maftah means Treasure. In this form Mafaatih means “The Treasures”. And it can be plural of Miftah also which means “A Key”. In this form mafaatih will be meant as “The Keys”. The word Miftaah is also used for “A Key”, plural of which is “Mafaatiih”.  

Gaybi – this word has already come in Chapter – 2 (Surah Baqarah). Every that thing which is out of sight and beyond the feelings of mankind, is called Gayb.

Kitaabim-Mubiin – (a Luminous Book), a table on which the destinies of the world since its creation are written, is called Kitaabim-Mubiin.

We have learnt in the previous verses that only He (Allah Almighty) has right to decide, Whose Knowledge is too much vast and more than entire others, and Who is well Aware of all matters regarding the guilt, the wrongdoers, the peculiarity of the punishment, the time and the opportunity to punish the evildoers.

The principles and rules for thinking correctly about the Knowledge of Allah Almighty have been described in this verse so that, it may be known that verily there is none who has more knowledge than Him, so complete Power of Decision, rewarding on good deeds and punishing due to wicked acts should be with Him only.

It is commanded that the things, about which you do not know because however you have limited sense and wisdom, therefore, many things are Invisible for you, Allah Almighty knows about entire of them. The entire treasures of Invisible are held with Him and the Keys to open those treasures are also in His Control. Therefore neither any person can touch them nor can anything be drawn out by anyone. While these treasures are with Him only, then it is obvious that He knows the entire things in the land and in the sea. Counting of the leaves of the trees, any smallest grain amid the darkness of the earth, even that everything wet or dry which exists in the world, is written very clearly and in detail in a Table on which the destinies of the world since its creation. The name of that Table is Kitaabim-Mubiin (Lawh-i-Mahfooz).

It is understood clearly by means of this verse that none of the creatures can know any Invisible Thing, until Allah Almighty does not tell about it, because all the treasures of the Invisible are in the Control of God Almighty and their Keys are also with Him. No person has ability to withdraw any most little thing opening any of them. However He can give anything to anyone at any time.
