Quran Chapter 6 – 158 (Pt-8, Stg-2) (L-915) - درس قرآن

Arrangements for guidance of mankind

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)

 هَلْ يَنظُرُونَ إِلَّآ أَن تَأْتِيَهُمُ ٱلْمَلَٰٓئِكَةُ أَوْ يَأْتِىَ رَبُّكَ أَوْ يَأْتِىَ بَعْضُ ءَايَٰتِ رَبِّكَ يَوْمَيَأْتِى بَعْضُ ءَايَٰتِ رَبِّكَ لَا يَنفَعُ نَفْسًا إِيمَٰنُهَا لَمْ تَكُنْ ءَامَنَتْ مِن قَبْلُ أَوْ كَسَبَتْ فِىٓ إِيمَٰنِهَا خَيْرًا قُلِ ٱنتَظِرُوٓا۟ إِنَّا مُنتَظِرُونَ 158

158.  Wait they, indeed, for nothing less than that the angels should come unto them, or thy Lord should come, or there should come any of the portents from thy Lord? The day when one of the portents from thy Lord cometh, its belief availeth naught a soul which theretofore believed not, nor in its belief earned good (by works). Say: Wait ye! Lo! We (too) are waiting.          
158.  Hal  yanzuruuna  ‘illaaa  ‘an-ta’-ti-ya-humul-malaaa-‘ikatu  ‘aw  ya’-tiya  Rabbuka  ‘aw  ya’-tiya  ba’-zu  ‘Aayaati  Rabbik.  Yawma  ya’-tii  ba’-zu  ‘Aayaati-  Rabbika  laa  yanfa-‘u  nafsan  ‘iimaanuhaa  lam  takun  ‘aamanat  min-  qablu  ‘aw  kasabat  fiii  ‘iimaanihaa  khayraa.  Qulin-taziruuu  ‘innaa  munta-ziruun.   

Commentary

Khayrun – it means “goodness, betterment, virtue and benefit”. Here it aims “repentance, penitence”.

It was stated earlier that Allah Almighty revealed His commands upon the Messengers (peace be upon Them) for the guidance of mankind. Then Torah was given to Messenger Moses (peace be upon Him). After that, this blessed Scripture, name of which is Holy Qur’an, was revealed.

The entire instructions have been collected in the Holy Qur’an for the entire human beings in every condition and every time. Now the life of peace and safety can be granted to the mankind only by its guidance. Therefore, it is commanded: Follow it up.

It has been asked in this verse: What is required more than it that, after making so many arrangements for the guidance of human beings, for which they have been waiting for to be completed? The final Scripture has reached. The last Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him) has come for causing to understand and explaining the way of acting upon its Commands. Are these people waiting now that either the Angels should come unto them or that Lord, Who sent down all of these for the mankind, should come unto them Himself, or His any such portent should come after which, there should remain no doubt?

Really the disbelievers used to say with their mouths all these words. Reply to all of them has been given in this verse that the belief and repentance will be useful at that time, when you will accept the Revelations of Holy Qur’an and Sayings of Muhammad, Messenger of Allah Almighty (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him) even now, by using your sense and understanding. Otherwise, if any such calamity fell suddenly, from which, Holy Qur’an and Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him) have been frightening, then your belief and penitence will be useless, because useful Belief is that, which is called “Having Faith in the Unseen”. And “the Unseen” is only that, in which, it is believed due to only the Commands of Holy Qur’an, Sayings of the Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him) and evidence of own sense.

Whenever the Unseen matters would be disclosed, which either begin to appear at the time of death, or will be revealed adjacent to the ruin of the world, for example; being damaged the system of the sun etc. the belief of such time will not be “the Belief in the Unseen”, so, that belief will be useless, even that the repentance of any sinful Muslim will not be accepted.
