The aya says:
That is a group that passed, to her what she collected of provisions and to you what you collected, and you will not be enquired about what they were doing.

My personal note:
This Ays tells us that the people that passed give us the story so that we learn from it, yet their issues and business is theirs and ours is ours. We will not be asked about what they were doing and they will not be asked about us.

So, if they felt safe in similar to what you felt safe in, then they were arrived at gift of guidance. And if they followed other direction then they are in active fissuring. Therefore, the GOD will meet their challenge for you, and HE is the all hearing, the all knowing.

My personal note:
The Aya continues the theme of the previous Aya. It mentions that the people that feel safe in what was mentioned in Aya 2:136 through faith and otherwise then they have arrived at guidance. Otherwise they are in a fissure that is active. GOD also says that he will meet the challenge of the people that feel differently.

The AYA says:
Say (to plural): We feel safety in the GOD and what was sent to us and was arrived at Abraham and Ishmael and Isaac and Jacob and the parents (of the Israelite) tribes, and what was brought to Moses and Jesus and what was brought to the prophets from their nurturer. We do not make division between one amongst them, and for HIM (GOD) we are muslim (cause dissociation from harm for the better bond with GOD).

My personal note:
The above is the creed of what a muslim is supposed to believe in and do.

Translation of the transliterated words:

So NABIY is the person that brings the news. Second root is N-B-Y and it means elevation and therefore NABIYY is a person that is elevated.

وَقَالُواْ كُونُواْ هُودًا أَوْ نَصَارَى تَهْتَدُواْ قُلْ بَلْ مِلَّةَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ حَنِيفًا وَ
ما
كَانَ مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ
Waqaloo koonoo hoodan aw nasara tahtadoo qul bal millata ibraheema haneefan wama kana mina almushrikeen

The Aya says:
And they said: be Jewish or Christian you will be gifted with guidance. Say: but way of Abraham, who exposed his inner self, and he was not of the makers of partnership (to GOD).

My personal note:
The word HANIF is very important and very difficult to translate. It comes from the person that has the foot tilted so that the sole is not the one that touches the ground and is exposed. It could be that the HANIF is the one that exposed a place of oneself that is usually not exposed. Therefore, my understanding of the word is exposure and transparency. This exposure means that his message is clear and that his inside is clear to GOD and to fellow man and that he did not keep any secrets.

Translation of the transliterated words:
Waqaloo: And they said/they arrived at saying
Note: the root is Qaf-W-L and it means saying. QALOO is the third person singular past tense of a verb that is derived from this root and that means they arrived at saying literally. This means they said.
Koonoo: Be
Note: the root is K-W-N and it means being. KOONOO is an order form of a verb that is derived from this root. This form of the verb means Arrive at being. This means Be
Hoodan: Jewish
aw nasara: Or Christian
Note: AW means or. NASARA means Christians. This is derived from the root N-Sad-R which means aid or help at a time of need. This is also the root from which the city Nazareth was derived. Therefore the Christians, according to the Qur’an relate to the city of Nazareth or to the fact that they were the ones that supported Jesus may peace be upon him.
Tahtadoo: you arrive at gift of guidance/you will be gifted with guidance.
Note: the root is H-D-Y and it means gift. This, in an abstract form can mean guidance since guidance is a gift. TAHTADOO is the second person plural present or future tense of a verb that is derived from the root. This verb means you arrive at gift of guidance.
Qul: Say
Note: the root is Qaf-W-L and it means saying. QUL is an order addressing a singular person that means Arrive at saying which means Say.
Bal: But
Millata: Way of/road of
Note: the root is M-L-L and it means repetition of something to the boredom level. Therefore it suggests that the thing was done many times. MILLATA is a noun for what was used a lot and that is used for the road or way because the road or way are used a lot.
Ibraheema: Abraham
Haneefan: one who exposes his inside/inner self (to GOD and people)
Note: this is a word that is hard to translate. The root is Ha-N-F and it means the foot that is tilting inwards so that the sole is exposed. The Hanif is the one that exposes his sole or the inner part of the foot. This inner part is also considered the secret and exposing it means that the person has exposed his inside. This mean exposed his inner self.
Wama: And not
Kana: arrived at being/was
Note: the root is K-W-N and it means being. KANA is the third person singular past tense of a verb that is derived of the root. This verb means arrived at being or was.
Mina: Of/from
Almushrikeen: the makers of partnership (To GOD)
Note: the root is SH-R-K and it means partnership in many ways. The Qur’an uses this word to talk about people who make partners to GOD. ALMUSHRIKEEN are the ones that make partnership to GOD, as in worship and so forth.

The Aya says:
Or were you witnesses as death’s staying presence arrived at Jacob? As he (Jacob) said to his children: What do you serve and obey after me? They said: we serve and obey your GOD and your father’s GOD, Abraham and Ishmael and Isaac. One GOD and for HIM we are muslims (dissociated from harm for GOD’s better bond)

My personal note:
That is an interesting thing that Ishamel was mentioned as part of the fathers of Jacob. This means that Islam is not a divorce between the two family trees, but that the two family trees (hudeo-christianity and Islam) are interconnected and more related.

Translation of the transliterated words:

Wawassa biha ibraheemubaneehi wayaAAqoobu ya baniyya inna Allaha istafalakumu alddeena fala tamootunna illa waantummuslimoona

The Aya says:
And Abraham willed her (the declaration of islam 2:131) connected/continued on his children and Jacob. O my children, verily, the GOD chose and purified the obligation for you, therefore do not die except while being muslims.

My personal note:
Al DEEN which is usually translated as religion is actually an obligation and that is the obligation of man towards GOD.

Muslims are the people that dissociate themselves from harm for a better association and that is the association with GOD, including his love and the living according to his direction.

You may notice that I am changing in subtle ways the way I am translating and that is because my own understanding of the concepts is evolving. I am helping myself and I hope that I am helping others as well

And whoever desires away from the way of Abraham except whoever arrived at lowering his self’s weight?! And WE (GOD) made him (Abraham) filtered for US in the nearer, and he is, in the remaining, of the ones that arrive at benefit.

My personal note:
The Aya talks about the ones that lowered their weight by refusing Abraham’s weight. The weight here is encompassing, however the mental and spiritual weight come to mind for the decision is considered very wrong.

This is 2:125
وَإِذْ جَعَلْنَا الْبَيْتَ مَثَابَةً لِّلنَّاسِ وَأَمْناً وَاتَّخِذُواْ مِن مَّقَامِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ مُصَلًّى وَعَهِدْنَآ إِلَى إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَإِسْمَاعِيلَ أَن طَهِّرَا بَيْتِيَ لِلطَّائِفِينَ وَالْعَاكِفِينَ وَالرُّكَّعِ
السُّجودِ
Waith jaAAalna albayta mathabatan lilnnasi waamnan waittakhithoo min maqami ibraheema musallan waAAahidna ila ibraheema waismaAAeela an tahhira baytiya lilttaifeena waalAAakifeena waalrrukkaAAi alssujoodi

The Aya says:
And WE made the shelter a place of filling and refilling (with good) to the people, and take of the standing place of Abraham for prayer. And WE arrived promise at Abraham and Ishmael that cleanse MY shelter to the orbiters and the stayers and the bowers, the prostrators (the ones that lower their heads as a sign of submission)

My personal note:
The Aya talks about the BAYT which is understood as the house but is closer to a place of shelter. It is understood that the house here is the house in Mekka where people go for pilgrimage.

Translation of the transliterated words:
Waith: And as
jaAAalna: We made
Note: the root is J-Ain-L and it means to make. JaAAaLNA is the first person plural past tense of the verb.
Albayta: The house/the shelter
Note: the root is B-Y-T and it means to reach night time (used for people and animals). BAYT is the place where one spends the night and that is considered the shelter in it’s wider sense and house in a narrower sense. However, any structure that can be used as a shelter is a BAYT. ALBAYTA is The shelter.
Mathabatan: place of filling and refilling with good
Note: the root is TH-W-B and it means to fill and refill with water for the concrete. This is used for the place that fills and refills with water or for the people that come and go to the water source to fill and refill with water. MATHABATAN is the place that fills and refills with water. Here Water is anything that is good.

Ibraheema: Abraham
Musallan: to perform prayer on/for performance of prayer
Note: MUSALLAN is derived from the root Sad-L-W and there are two potential explanations for it. One is that it was borrowed from Aramaic and it means Prayer in that language. Two and that is derived from the concrete word SALA and that is the lower back mainly of animals. A horse that is MUSALLEE is a horse in a race whose head is appraoaching or overlapping the back of the horse ahead. As if to suggest that SALAT is the race towards the goal and that is GOD. MUSALLA is what Salat is performed on.
waAAahidna: And WE arrived at promise

Baytiya: My house/my shelter
Note: : the root is B-Y-T and it means to reach night time (used for people and animals).
