Chapter “The Prophets” – (Suratul – ‘Ambiyaaa’ - 21)

 ‘A-‘uu-zu  Billaahi minash-Shay-taanir- Rajiim.

Bis-Millaahir-Rah-maanir-Rahiim.
(In the name of Allaah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.)

وَنَجَّيْنَٰهُ وَلُوطًاإِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّتِى بَٰرَكْنَا فِيهَا لِلْعَٰلَمِينَ 71

 وَوَهَبْنَا لَهُۥٓ إِسْحَٰقَ وَيَعْقُوبَ نَافِلَةً وَكُلًّا جَعَلْنَا صَٰلِحِينَ 72  

وَجَعَلْنَٰهُمْ أَئِمَّةً يَهْدُونَ بِأَمْرِنَا وَأَوْحَيْنَآ إِلَيْهِمْ فِعْلَ ٱلْخَيْرَٰتِ وَإِقَامَ ٱلصَّلَوٰةِ وَإِيتَآءَ ٱلزَّكَوٰةِوَكَانُوا۟ لَنَا عَٰبِدِينَ 73

    Commentary

Naafilatan – (a grant, assignment), it is a Noun from the word nafala. Nafala means “to do or give more than requirement”. Messenger Abraham (peace be upon him) called for a son. His (peace be upon him) application was fulfilled and one more son to that son was bestowed, which was a grant from Allaah Almighty and which was given to Abraham (peace be upon him) without his demand. In Arabic language, the word naafilah is used for grandson also.

Allaah Almighty made the fire cool and pleasant for Abraham (peace be upon him) by His endless Power and after rescuing him form this calamity, He conveyed him to Syria from his native land Iraq, where He had collected arrangements for welfare and betterment of the people of the world, and they reaped many apparent and hidden benefits from the useful things. Lot (peace be upon him) moved too along with Abraham (peace be upon him) from their native land, who then was sent as a Prophet unto the people of Sodom for their guidance.

A son was given to Abraham (peace be upon him) for whom he wished and whose name was Isaac (peace be upon him), then a son was given to Isaac whose name was Jacob, from whom a lineage of Prophets (peace be upon them) ran. These all people were fortunate of good disposition and good-doers. Then Allaah Almighty appointed them (peace be upon them) Leaders of the people, so that they should show them the Right Path by the Command of Allaah Almighty.
