Commentary
Rasuulun – (Messenger),
the person carrying the message. This word is used for all Prophets (peace be
upon Them). It is revealed from the way of narration of this verse that it
signifies towards the last Messenger of Allah Almighty (glory, grace, peace and
blessings be upon Him). Religious commentators, research scholars and
philosophers have taken these meanings of the verse also.
Ma-‘ahum – (they
possess), it aims the Holy Scripture, Torah, which was heavenly Book of the
Children of Israel and the last Messenger of Allah Almighty (grace, glory,
blessings and peace be upon Him) confirmed it.
KitaabAllaahi – (the Book of Allah), here it aims Torah too, guidance
of which was not admitted by the Children of Israel. These people did not
believe also in the last Messenger Muhammad (glory, grace, peace and blessings
be upon Him), though, open signs and foretelling had been mentioned in their
Holy Book (Torah). The Jewish Scholars tried their best to hide these
foretelling and the common Jewish people opposed Islam and the Muslims
limitless, whereas their deliverance was connected with the Belief in Islam.
Waraaa-‘a zuhuurihim – (behind
their backs), it is a proverb, which means, “They took it carelessly and
opposed it practically”.
In this verse, it is being described to the
Children of Israel that the Last Messenger Muhammad (glory, grace,
peace and blessings be upon Him) has not come for the purpose that He should
remove their religion, but He (glory, grace, peace and blessings be upon Him)
has come to refresh it and provide it a new life. Therefore, not obeying Him
(glory, grace, peace and blessings be upon Him) is just like ruining entirely
their religion by undermining its foundations themselves.
Besides all these Revelations, the Children
of Israel began to oppose the religion Islam publicly, and which glad
tidings had been mentioned in Torah about the coming of the Last Messenger
Muhammad (glory, grace, peace and blessings be upon Him), and which signs and
tokens were described, they changed Torah to hide them and became quite
apparently unknown, as though, they did never know that corroborative evidence
and confirmation regarding the last Prophet (glory, grace, peace and blessings
be upon Him) exists in it.
