Commentary
Makhzuulan – (forsaken), this word has
been derived from khazlun which means “to forsake, to abandon, to desert
and run away”.
It has been explained in this verse that Allah
Almighty has preferred some people; concerning the provisions; above others.
When for some people; all circumstances become auspicious, they acquire more
wealth and dignity. But the circumstances of some people do not become favorable,
so they remain in lower grades.
Therefore, it is commanded: It is not necessary
that every seeker of the world can acquire it according to own wishes. So
seeking the world only is useless. Allah Almighty can give as much as He
desires to give any person. But surely that person will be in ease and comfort
on the Day of Resurrection who will seek the Hereafter. Although there too,
will be the people of lower and higher grades, but the mankind of every grade
will be pleasant and satisfied at own place.
Contrary to them, no individual of any grade is
happy and satisfied heartily in the world. it is commanded: Whether the grades
of the Hereafter are of different types, but those will be cause of pleasure
and satisfaction. So the grades of the Hereafter are preferable in all respect
if we compare them with the grades of this world. First condition for acquiring
those grades is that we should not set up any other god with Allah Almighty,
otherwise we shall sit down reproved, forsaken and be disappointed entirely in the Hereafter.
