Disobedience of the Command of Allah

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)

  قُل لَّآ أَجِدُ فِى مَآ أُوحِىَ إِلَىَّ مُحَرَّمًا عَلَىٰ طَاعِمٍ يَطْعَمُهُۥٓ إِلَّآ أَن يَكُونَ مَيْتَةً أَوْ دَمًا مَّسْفُوحًا أَوْ لَحْمَ خِنزِيرٍ فَإِنَّهُۥ رِجْسٌ أَوْ فِسْقًا أُهِلَّ لِغَيْرِ ٱللَّهِبِهِۦ فَمَنِ ٱضْطُرَّ غَيْرَ بَاغٍ وَلَا عَادٍ فَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ غَفُورٌ رَّحِيمٌ 145

145.  Say: I find not in that which is revealed unto Me aught prohibited to an eater that he eat thereof, except it be carrion, or blood poured forth, or swine-flesh - for that verily is unclean - or the abomination which was immolated to the name of other than Allah. But whoso is compelled (thereto), neither craving nor transgressing, (for him) lo! Thy Lord is Forgiving, Merciful.

145.  Qul-laaa  ‘ajidu  fii  maaa  ‘uuhi-ya  ‘i-layya  muharraman  ‘alaa  taa-‘iminy-yat  ‘amuhuuu  ‘illaaa  ‘any-yakuuna  may-tatan  ‘aw  damam-mas-fuuhan  ‘aw lahma  khin-ziirin-  fa-‘innahuu  rijsun  ‘aw fisqan  ‘u-hilla  ligay-RIllaahi  bih.  Famaniz-turra  gayra  baaginw-wa  laa  ‘aadin-  fa-‘inna  RabbaKa  Gafuurur-Rahiim.

Commentary

Fisqun – (the abomination, against the Law, evil deeds), actually it means “crossing the limits of the law and evildoing. Faasiq means evildoer, sinful. Here fisqan aims – that animal, which has been slaughtered invalidly.

‘U-hilla – (immolated, sacrificed, proclaimed and called aloud upon), it is past passive voice tense, origin of which is ‘ahlaal and made from – h-l-l, which means “to manifest, to appear”. The word hilaal has been derived from it, which means “the moon of the first night, which appears after three moonless nights)”. ‘Ahlaal means “to call aloud and openly, to proclaim”. It aims “such animal, which either has been nominated to the name of any other than Allah or the name of any other than Allah was called aloud at the time of its slaughtering”.

Baagin – (the disobedient), actually this word is baaghii, which has been derived from the word baghaawat. Bagaawat means “to disobey the order of someone. Here it aims “the disobedient of Allah Almighty”.

‘Aadin – Actually this word is ‘Aadii, which is made from ‘adwaan. It means “to go out of bounds and to transgress”  

Allah Almighty commands to His Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him) that He should say to the people: You have no authority to fix anything lawful or forbidden for food. It is in the Power of Allah Almighty to determine anything lawful or forbidden. The things, about which, it has been revealed unto Me (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him) that those cannot be taken as food, some of those are as under:

·         The carrion (meat of any dead animal)

·         The blood poured forth (flowing blood)

·         The swine-flesh, because that verily is unclean

·         The abomination which (the animal) is immolated to the name of any other than Allah Almighty i.e. any spiritual guide, idols or gods.

Four forbidden things were discussed in the first Section of Chapter (Surah) ‘Al-Maa-‘idah. It is their explanation.
