Commentary
Nafida – (be used up), it is past tense
from nafadun, which means “to come to an end, to be finished”. Origin of
tanfada is also the same which means “are exhausted”.
Bahrun – in Arabic language it means “a Sea”.
The entire Sea is one; however it has been divided in many parts by rising of
the land parts at different places – as it has been risen more at some places
and less on other places.
The people of Arab did not obey the
Messenger of Allah Almighty (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) and
began to ask from Him about old stories. He answered to their three questions,
that is to say, The Soul, The Companions of the Cave and Zhu’l-Qarneyn,
and caused to understand them that only it is enough for you to know. Knowing more
than it is not useful for you.
The Knowledge of Allah Almighty is as
much vast that if the entire Sea becomes ink and a person begins to write about
His Sciences; then water of the Sea will be exhausted, but those Sciences will
not come to an end. Not only one Sea but if the ink equal to one more Sea is
included for writing, that too will be finished, but those Sciences will never
be finished.
Allah Almighty has given you a little
knowledge, but that which has been given, if you bring it in use correctly, verily
it will be sufficient for your success in both worlds. You should understand
and correct your entire deeds according to the Instructions described to you in
this Holy Qur’an. You will succeed in getting profitable things of the both
worlds from the same. And you will be successful in this life (of the world)
and you will deserve also perpetual pleasure and comfort after death.
