Quran Chapter 20 – 105 to 108a (Pt-16, Stg-4) (L-2009) درس قرآن

Condition of the mountains

Chapter TAA-HAA – Surah – 20)

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

Bis-Millaahir-Rah-maanir-Rahiim.

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

وَيَسْـَٔلُونَكَ عَنِ ٱلْجِبَالِ فَقُلْ يَنسِفُهَا رَبِّى نَسْفًا 105

 فَيَذَرُهَا قَاعًا صَفْصَفًا 106

 لَّا تَرَىٰ فِيهَا عِوَجًا وَلَآ أَمْتًا 107

يَوْمَئِذٍ يَتَّبِعُونَ ٱلدَّاعِىَلَا عِوَجَ لَهُۥ وَخَشَعَتِ ٱلْأَصْوَاتُ لِلرَّحْمَٰنِ فَلَا تَسْمَعُ إِلَّا هَمْسًا 108

105.  And they ask thee about the mountains. Say: My Lord will break them into scattered dust –

106.  And leave it (hilly area) as an level plain.

107.  Wherein thou will see neither curve nor ruggedness.

108a.  On that Day they will follow the Summoner, no will be able to turn away therefrom.
105.  Wa  yas-‘aluunaka  ‘anil-jibaali  faqul  yansifuhaa  Rabbii  nasfaa.

106.  Fa-yazaruhaa  qaa-‘an-  safsafaa.

107.  Laa taraa fiihaa  ‘iwajanw-wa  laaa  ‘amtaa.

108a.  Yawma-‘iziny-yattabi-‘uunad-Daa-‘iya  laa  ‘iwaja  lah.

Commentary

Qaa-‘un – (a plain, a field)

Safsafun – (level, open)

‘Iwajun – (crookedness, a hole)

‘Amtun – (ruggedness of the land, a rising ground, unevenness, roughness)

‘Ad-Daa-‘iya – (the Summoner, a well-wisher, one who calls or demands or blesses), here it aims “’Israa-fiil” (the name of an Angel who will blow the Trumpet on the Resurrection Day and call: Come on for being produced before Allaah Almighty).

Laa  ‘iwaja  lah – (none will be able to turn away therefrom, for them there will be no crookedness), that is to say; they will come forth straight on the Voice of the Caller without turning unto right or left.

When it was said to the people, “the disobedient of Allaah Almighty will be produced in His Court after bringing them to life after death”, then they did not understand that “so much strong and heavy things of the world like mountains will be annihilated, and the people who have died; they will be reproduced and accounts of their worldly deeds will be reckoned”, then some people began to say being surprised: Lo! How these high and heavy mountains will be disappeared?

Reply to their question has been given in these verses that, “O ignorant people! These mountains are nothing before the Power and Omnipotence of Allaah Almighty. He will break them little by little and into scattered dust. The earth will become entirely as a level plain, in which you will see neither any curve and nor ruggedness. As soon as the entire dead mankind will hear the Voice of the Trumpet blown by Angel ‘Israa-fiil (peace be upon him), they will get up immediately from all conditions (wherever they will be and in which condition they will be) and they will run behind the Voice of the Trumpet. Every individual will take this Voice as a command that: Run unto the Field of Resurrection! Then there will be none who may be able to turn away from the path of the Field of Resurrection.

Fear of the Day of Resurrection - Quran Chapter 20 – 103 & 104 (Pt-16, Stg-4) (L-2008) درس قرآن


Quran Chapter 20 – 103 & 104 (Pt-16, Stg-4) (L-2008) درس قرآن

Fear of the Day of Resurrection

Chapter TAA-HAA – Surah – 20)

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

Bis-Millaahir-Rah-maanir-Rahiim.

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

 يَتَخَٰفَتُونَ بَيْنَهُمْ إِن لَّبِثْتُمْ إِلَّا عَشْرًا 103

 نَّحْنُ أَعْلَمُ بِمَا يَقُولُونَ إِذْ يَقُولُ أَمْثَلُهُمْ طَرِيقَةً إِن لَّبِثْتُمْ إِلَّا يَوْمًا 104

103.  Murmuring among themselves: Ye have tarried but ten (days).

104.  We are Best Aware of what they utter when their best in conduct say: Ye have tarried but a day.
103.  Yatakhaafa-tuuna  baynahum  ‘illabistum  ‘illaa  ‘ashraa.

104.  Nahnu  ‘A’-lamu  bimaa  yaquuluuna  ‘iz  yaquulu  ‘am-saluhum  Tariiqatan  ‘illabis-tum  ‘illaa  yawmaa.
 
(Section 5)

Commentary

Yatakhaafa-tuuna – (they will murmur, they will say to one another in very low voice), from the same origin, a word (in negative tense) “Laa  tukhaafit” has passed in near the end of Surah Banii ‘Israaa-‘iil.

‘Am-sala – (best in conduct), it is a comparative noun from the word masala. The words misal and misaal have come out from the same, the thing; which can be a sample for others. It is obvious that such thing will be the best.

Tariiqatan – (Way, Path), here it aims “way of thinking and comprehending”.

‘Am-saluhum  Tariiqatan – (the best in conduct, of sound mind).

On the Day of Resurrection, those people who had disobeyed the Commands of Allaah Almighty during their worldly life, will be laid siege and collected to one place. Color of their eyes will be changed and become blue. Their hearts will be confused. There will be such scene that they will forget their entire pomp and pride. They will see their numerous hopes, unlimited desires and efforts of collecting worldly goods, raptures and jollities etc. like dreams and thoughts. They will murmur with one another: The world has been finished as quickly as it seems that we lived there only not more than ten days.

It is commanded: We are Best Aware of their murmuring among themselves. They can hide nothing from Us by murmuring. After suffering from the calamities of the Day of Resurrection, they will tell due to horror that they lived in the world for only ten or twelve days. But their intelligent people will say: Not ten days but we lived only one day. Their guess will be better than others, because by this; it seems that they felt more fear of the Day of Resurrection, which is a sign of their better sensibility.

Torment in the Day of Resurrection

Chapter TAA-HAA – Surah – 20)

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

Bis-Millaahir-Rah-maanir-Rahiim.

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

مَّنْ أَعْرَضَ عَنْهُ فَإِنَّهُۥ يَحْمِلُ يَوْمَ ٱلْقِيَٰمَةِ وِزْرًا 100

 خَٰلِدِينَ فِيهِ وَسَآءَ لَهُمْ يَوْمَ ٱلْقِيَٰمَةِ حِمْلًا 101

 يَوْمَ يُنفَخُ فِى ٱلصُّورِ وَنَحْشُرُٱلْمُجْرِمِينَ يَوْمَئِذٍ زُرْقًا 102

100.  Whoso turneth away from it, he verily will bear a burden on the Day of Resurrection –

101.  Abiding under it for ever – an evil burden for them on the Day of Resurrection –

102.  The Day when the Trumpet is blown. On that Day We assemble the guilty blue-eyed (with terror) -
100.  Man  ‘a’-raza  ‘anhu  fa-‘innahuu  yahmilu  Yawmal-Qiyaamati    wizraa.

101.  Khaalidiina  fiih.  Wa  saaa-‘a  lahum  Yawmal-Qiyaa-mati  himlaa.

102.  Yawma  yunfakhu  fis-Suuri  wa  Nah-shurul-mujrimiina  Yawma-‘izin-  zurqaa.

Commentary

Zurqun  – {blue-eyed (persons)}, this word is plural of ‘azraqun, which is an adjective from zarqun. Zarqun means “to become blue”. ‘Azraqun means “the person whose eyes are blue”. Blue eyes make the face ugly, also frightful.

It is commanded: The person, who will revolt from Holy Qur’an in the world; will not accept its advice; will not learn a lesson from the admonitory circumstances of old nations mentioned in it and will not change his life according to its commandments; but by turning away from it; he will be involved in fulfilling own lustful desires, he will bear a heavy burden of his evil deeds on the Day of Resurrection. Such kind of people will remain suppressed for ever under such burden. This burden will be established worst for them, and they will be suffering from such distress that they will be greatly worried, but they will never be released from it.

The Day of Resurrection will be such Day on which the Trumpet will be blown and by its sound, dead bodies of the entire mankind will get up. Then Allaah Almighty will assemble the wrongdoers at one place. Their faces will become black due to terror and eyes will become blue, which is a sign of deadly fear.

Instructions for the Nation - Quran Chapter 20 – 98 & 99 (Pt-16, Stg-4) (L-2006) درس قرآن


Quran Chapter 20 – 98 & 99 (Pt-16, Stg-4) (L-2006) درس قرآن

Instructions for the Nation

Chapter TAA-HAA – Surah – 20)

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

Bis-Millaahir-Rah-maanir-Rahiim.

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

   إِنَّمَآ إِلَٰهُكُمُ ٱللَّهُ ٱلَّذِى لَآ إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ وَسِعَ كُلَّ شَىْءٍ عِلْمًا 98

  كَذَٰلِكَ نَقُصُّ عَلَيْكَ مِنْ أَنۢبَآءِ مَا قَدْ سَبَقَ وَقَدْ ءَاتَيْنَٰكَ مِن لَّدُنَّا ذِكْرًا 99

98.  Your God is only Allah, than Whom there is no other God. He embraceth all things in His knowledge. 

99.  Thus relate We unto thee (Muhammad) some tidings of that which happened of old, and We have given thee from Our Presence a Reminder.

99.  Kazaalika  Naqussu  ‘alayka  min  ‘ambaaa-‘i  maa  qad  sabaq.  Wa  qad  ‘aatay-Naaka  mil-ladun-Naa  Zikraa.

Commentary

Zikran – (a Reminder, a Book of Guidance), actual meanings are “to remind, memory, remembrance”. Here it aims “Holy Qur’an”, in which; admonitory occurrences have been mentioned for cautioning.

After inquiring from Aaron (peace be upon him) and causing to hear Samirii about his punishment, Moses (peace be upon him) addressed to his nation (the Children of Israel): What has happened with you that you adore useless things? You are the Children of the Prophets (peace be upon them) who raised voice always against the polytheism. What is your concern with idol-worshiping? Why have you forgotten that lesson which your and our grand-father taught to his children? Allah Almighty has appointed me and my brother Aaron Prophets with His Bounty then sent unto you, so that we should remind you your old lesson. Behold! Every matter is false save it that your God is only One and His name is Allaah. Only He has That Epithet which should be in a Worshiped. None other has That Epithet. Therefore, none save Him can be worthy of worship. And That Epithet is “’Ilm” (Knowledge), in which everything has been contained.

After that, it has been commanded to Muhammad, the Last Messenger of Allaah Almighty (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him): Thus We cause to hear you the circumstances of the ancient times and nations, and in the same way We have bestowed a Book filled with instructive words for your Guidance.

Punishment for Samirii - Quran Chapter 20 – 97 (Pt-16, Stg-4) (L-2005) درس قرآن


Quran Chapter 20 – 97 (Pt-16, Stg-4) (L-2005) درس قرآن

Punishment for Samirii

Chapter TAA-HAA – Surah – 20)

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

Bis-Millaahir-Rah-maanir-Rahiim.

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

   قَالَ فَٱذْهَبْفَإِنَّ لَكَ فِى ٱلْحَيَوٰةِ أَن تَقُولَ لَا مِسَاسَ وَإِنَّ لَكَ مَوْعِدًا لَّن تُخْلَفَهُۥ وَٱنظُرْ إِلَىٰٓ إِلَٰهِكَ ٱلَّذِى ظَلْتَ عَلَيْهِ عَاكِفًا لَّنُحَرِّقَنَّهُۥ ثُمَّ لَنَنسِفَنَّهُۥ فِى ٱلْيَمِّ نَسْفًا 97

97.  (Moses) said: Then go! And lo! In this life it is for thee to say: Touch me not! And lo! There is for thee another tryst which canst not be averted from thee. And look upon thy god of which thou hast remained a votary. Verily we will burn it and will scatter its dust over the sea.  
97.  Qaala  fazhab  fa-‘inna  laka  fil-hayaati  ‘an-  taquula  “Laa  Misaas”,  wa  ‘inna  laka  maw-‘idal-lan-  tukhlafah.  Wanzur  ‘ilaaa  ‘ilaahi-kallazii  zalta  ‘alayhi  ‘aakifaa.  Lanuharri-qannahuu  summa  lanansi-fannahuu  fil-yammi  nasfaa.

Commentary

Nasfun – (to scatter little by little), the word “lanansi-fanna” is also from the same origin.

Samirii confessed that after looking sufficient useless gold, he himself thought that a calf should be made and put in it that handful clay which was seized from the footsteps of the Angel. When he invented a calf, he saw an astonishing wonder by mixing up those both things (gold and clay) that a voice as of living calf began to come out from the idol of self-made calf. Then he excited the Children of Israel for adoration of the calf. It was very capital offence.

Today too, those people should learn from it; who wish to turn the people unto their baseless thoughts covered with religious color; who desire to amend the commandments mentioned in Holy Qur’an and Hadith {Sayings of the Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him)}.

Moses (peace be upon him) commanded: It is your punishment that you should continue saying to the people during your entire worldly life “Behold! Touch me not! He will be suffering from fever who will touch me!” It is the punishment of this life. Moreover, there is another promise for you which cannot be averted from you, that is the punishment of the Day of Resurrection. And your this adored (the calf) will be broken and burnt before your eyes and we will scatter its dust over the sea, so that its name and mark is removed.

Verily, new traditions and customs; included in the religion by the advise of any person; should be extirpated like this.

Asking from Samirii - Quran Chapter 20 – 95 & 96 (Pt-16, Stg-4) (L-2004) درس قرآن

Asking from Samirii

Chapter TAA-HAA – Surah – 20)

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

Bis-Millaahir-Rah-maanir-Rahiim.

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

  قَالَ فَمَاخَطْبُكَ يَٰسَٰمِرِىُّ 95

 قَالَ بَصُرْتُ بِمَا لَمْ يَبْصُرُوا۟ بِهِۦ فَقَبَضْتُ قَبْضَةً مِّنْ أَثَرِ ٱلرَّسُولِ فَنَبَذْتُهَا وَكَذَٰلِكَ سَوَّلَتْ لِى نَفْسِى 96

95.  (Moses) said: And what hast thou to say, O Saamirii?

96.  He said: I perceived what they perceived not, so I seized a handful from the footsteps of the Messenger, and then threw it in; and thus my soul commended to me.  
95.  Qaala  famaa  khatbuka  Yaa-Saamiriyy.

96.  Qaala  basurtu  bimaa  lam  yabsuruu  bihii  faqabaztu  qab-zatam-min  ‘asarir-Rasuuli  fa-nabaztuhaa  wa  kazaalika  saw-walat  lii  nafsii.

Commentary

Khatbun – (plan), this word has already passed. It means “state, scheme, thought, and work etc. according to circumstances.

Saw-walat – (induced, commended, advised), it is past tense from the word “tas-wiil”, which means “to induce, to allure, to cause to tend”. This word has passed in Surah Joseph (Chapter 12).

When Aaron (peace be upon him) explained before Moses (peace be upon him) about his problem, he released him and turned unto Saamirii. Moses (peace be upon him) asked from him: Why did you commit such unlawful act? And what was in your mind that you misled them? Saamirii said: When a path appeared for us in the Sea and we began to travel on that path, at that time I saw “A Man” in front of me who was of wonderful pomp. I understood that he was an Angel; sent by Allaah Almighty; for our help. I picked silently a handful clay from beneath his feet. Then I did put that clay in the gold after melting it and made a calf from it. Then I observed that a sound began to come out from the calf like cattle having life.

After that, it came in my mind that the fabricated calf was worthy of worship, so I ordered the people: Worship it!

This statement of Saamirii was his acceptance that only he was responsible of spreading polytheism entirely. Verily those people are very dangerous who want to spread their false thoughts after writing in the religious teachings and cause to admit from the people.

Questioning from Aaron

Chapter TAA-HAA – Surah – 20)

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

Bis-Millaahir-Rah-maanir-Rahiim.

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

  قَالَ يَٰهَٰرُونُ مَا مَنَعَكَ إِذْ رَأَيْتَهُمْ ضَلُّوٓا۟ 92

 أَلَّا تَتَّبِعَنِأَفَعَصَيْتَ أَمْرِى 93

 قَالَ يَبْنَؤُمَّ لَا تَأْخُذْ بِلِحْيَتِى وَلَا بِرَأْسِىٓ إِنِّى خَشِيتُ أَن تَقُولَ فَرَّقْتَ بَيْنَ بَنِىٓ إِسْرَٰٓءِيلَ وَلَمْ تَرْقُبْ قَوْلِى 94

92.  He (Moses) said: O Aaron! What held thee back when thou didst see them gone astray –

93.  That thou followedst me not? Hast thou then disobeyed my order?

94.  He said: O son of my mother! Clutch not my beard nor my head! I feared lest thou shouldst say: Thou hast caused division among the Children of Israel, and hast not waited for my word.
92.  Qaala  Yaa-Haaruunu  maa  mana-’aka  ‘iz  ra-‘aytahum  zalluuu.

93.  ‘Allaa  tattabi-‘an.  ‘Afa-‘asayta  ‘amrii.

94.  Qaala  yabna-‘umma  laa  ta’-khuz  bilih-yatii  wa  laa  bi-ra’-sii.  ‘Innii  khashiitu  ‘an  taquula  farraqta  bayna  Baniii-  ‘Israaa-‘iila  wa  lam  tarqub  qawlii.

Commentary

Yabna-‘umma – (O son of my mother!), actually this word is “Yaa-‘ibna-‘ummii”. It became “yabna-‘umma” in conversation and it is abbreviation of the same.

Tarqub – (took care), origin of this word is “raqaba”, which means “to look after, to guard”.

When the Children of Israel blamed that Samirii was the actual person who misled them in adoration of the idol of calf, then Moses (peace be upon him) moved unto Aaron (peace be upon him) due to religious passion. At that time he was being emotional religiously and his anger was out of his control. He clutched beard and hairs of the head of Aaron (peace be upon him); and said angrily: Why did you not treat these people as I would have treated them when they were going astray? I left you behind as my Caliph. Why did you disobey my order?

Aaron (peace be upon him) said: O my brother! Don’t be angry with me. Don’t clutch my hair of head and beard. I caused very much to understand them verbally but did not fight because you had ordered: Behold! Division should not be among the Children of Israel. I feared that two parties are necessary for fighting and you will be enraged that why we did not obey your order and why two parties of the Children of Israel were formed.
