Hearsay and False
desires
Surah ‘Al-Baqarah (The Cow) – Chapter – 2)
BisMIllaahir-Rahmaanir-Rahiim
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
78. Among them
are unlettered folk who know the scripture not except from hearsay. They but
guess.
79. Therefore
woe be unto those who write the Scripture with their hands, then say, “This
is from Allah,” that they may purchase a small gain therewith. Woe unto them
for that their hands have written, and woe unto them for that they earn
thereby!

Lesson
‘Amaaniyya – (false hopes, hearsay) its singular is ‘umniah. This word is used in two meanings;
(1) as like hope which does
not have any reality and some persons remain cheerful only in false notions.
(2) Anybody remains fallen in false traditions and absurdities.
There are a lot of instances of resemblances like this in the history of Jews,
for example their false notions that nobody will go into the Paradise except them.
Samanan – (price, cost, value) meanings of this word are not only the net cash
or cash price but anything which will be gotten as reward or remuneration for
any other thing, that will be its samanan. In this verse samanan means worldly reward or remuneration.
Mimmaa yaksibuun – (out of their earnings) in this verse it has
two meanings;
(1) Pile of their sins – because of increasing their sins due to
these mischief constantly.
(2). which financial
reward or remuneration these persons achieve due to change or
alteration/transposition.
Illiterate class of the
Jews did not know that what has been written in the Holy Book Torah. They were
aware of only a few false expectations, hopes and desires, which they had
listened from their forefathers and expected that their ancestors will get them
forgiven from their sins.
God Almighty commands
that the people who change His Orders and say that it is the order of God
Almighty, for them there is much badness.
