Salaam all,

This is 3:43
يَا مَرْيَمُ اقْنُتِي لِرَبِّكِ وَاسْجُدِي وَارْكَعِي مَعَ الرَّاكِعِينَ
Ya maryamu oqnutee lirabbiki waosjudee wairkaAAee maAAa alrrakiAAeena

The Aya says:
O Mary, make yourself dedicated to your nurturing Lord and prostrate and bow with the ones that bow.

My personal note:
The Aya mentions two actions that are included in the prayer, Sujood= prostration and Rukoo= bowing. Both words have a physical, mental, psychological and spiritual aspects to their meanings and all those aspects are binding. This is the range of the meaning of those words and since there is no indication in the sentence or the Qur'an to limit the meaning to one or another aspect, then the wide range of the meaning applies and is binding.

Translation of the transliterated words:
Ya: O (this is a calling)
Maryamu: Mary/ Miriam
Oqnutee: make yourself dedicated
Note: the root is Qaf-N-T and it means dedicating. The meaning carries the range of being silent to in front of another, acceptance of the lordship of the one above him/her and standing as well as a sign of respect and dedication. They all carry the general concept of Dedication. OQNUTEE is an order addressing a singular feminine. It means make yourself dedicated.
Lirabbiki: To your nurturing Lord
Note: LI means to. RABBIKI is derived from the root R-B-B and it means lordship and nurturing at the same time. It gives authority and nurture at the same time. RABBI means: nurturing Lord of. KI means a singular you (feminine).
Waosjudee: and prostrate yourself (physically and spiritually)
Note: WA means and. OSJUDEE is derived from the root S-J-D and in concrete it means a tree that is tilting downward due to a heavy load of fruits. It therefore is used to mean tilting downward of the face or the body including prostration. In abstract, it means showing signs of submission to a higher power, basically showing that one is giving in to the higher power. The range of meaning includes the abstract and the concrete together and one needs to understand it as both unless there is a strong reason in the sentence or elsewhere in the Qur’an to make one meaning inappropriate or impossible.
wairkaAAee: And bow
Note: WA means And. IRKaAAee is derived from the root R-K-Ain and it means to bend the back or to bow This meaning extends to the concrete and the abstract and both are correct and are binding unless their is a reason to limit the meaning to one. IRKaAAee is an order addressing a singular feminine to bow (physically and mentally and psychologically)
maAAa: with
alrrakiAAeena: the ones that bow
Note: ALRRAKiAAeeNA is derived from the root R-K-Ain and it means to bend the back or to bow. ALRRAKiAAeeNA are the ones that bow

Take care all and have a great day

وَإِذْ قَالَتِ الْمَلاَئِكَةُ يَا مَرْيَمُ إِنَّ اللّهَ اصْطَفَاكِ وَطَهَّرَكِ وَاصْطَفَاكِ عَلَى نِسَاء الْعَالَمِينَ
Waith qalati almalaikatu ya maryamu inna Allaha istafaki watahharaki waistafaki AAala nisai alAAalameena

The Aya says:
And as the angels said: O Mary, verily Allah made you chosen and made you cleansed and He made you chosen over (the) women of the world.

My personal note:
The word ISTAFAKI has the meaning of being made chosen or purified by the subject for the purpose or purposes of the subject. The purpose or purposes may or may not be clear. This word was used in the above Aya were God made Miriam chosen. This meant that Mary had a purpose or a task that she needed to fulfill in the service of God and that God chose her for it. It gave Mary (peace on her) great honor and great responsibility. The same word (istafa) was used earlier in Aya 3:33 where God chose Adam and Noah and the family of Abraham and the family of Imran. All of them had great honor and great responsibility in the service of God.

Translation of the transliterated words:
Waith: And as
Qalati: they said
Note: the root is Qaf-W-L and it means saying or communicating. QALAT is an action that is completed that is derived from the root. It means: the saying happened by the subject (third person plural feminine pointing to the angels coming next). It means they said.

The object is KI which is a singular you pointing to Mary.

AAala: on/ above/ over
Nisai: women of
Note: Note: the word means their women. It has two potential roots that may be related to it. The first N-S-Y and it is the one used for women. This same root is used for the sciatic nerve as a concrete word and for forgetting. The relation between the different meanings is only in an indirect manner. Another root is N-S-Hamza and it means putting things behind in time or space of delaying things. Concrete words are the women that have a delay in the menses because of possibility of pregnancy. NISAI means women of.
alAAalameena: all the world/ all creation/all
Note: the root is Ain-L-M and it means knowledge. ALAAaLAMEEN is plural of known and therefore means the knowns. Since GOD knows everything then the knowns are everything. Here, it can mean all creation or all the world or simply all.

Qala rabbi anna yakoonu lee ghulamun waqad balaghaniya alkibaru waimraatee AAaqirun qala kathalika Allahu yafAAalu ma yashao

The Aya says:
He (Zachariah) said: My nurturing Lord, How will belong to me a child/youth while old age (has) reached me and my wife (is) barren?! He responded: That (is) how Allah does what He wills/ entities.

My personal note:
As if Zachariah was asking for a child and not expecting that the child will come. So, he was surprised when the message came to him that he will have the child. When he asked how does it happen? in those unlikely circumstances, the answer came that God does what He entities. This means: God makes an entity what was not an entity.

Translation of the transliterated words:

This is 3:39
فَنَادَتْهُ الْمَلآئِكَةُ وَهُوَ قَائِمٌ يُصَلِّي فِي الْمِحْرَابِ أَنَّ اللّهَ يُبَشِّرُكَ بِيَحْيَـى مُصَدِّقًا بِكَلِمَةٍ مِّنَ اللّهِ وَسَيِّدًا وَحَصُورًا وَنَبِيًّا مِّنَ الصَّالِحِينَ
Fanadathu almalaikatu wahuwa qaimun yusallee fee almihrabi anna Allaha yubashshiruka biyahya musaddiqan bikalimatin mina Allahi wasayyidan wahasooran wanabiyyan mina alssaliheena

The Aya says:
So, the angels called him while standing, praying in the place of prayer, that Allah is bringing you good news of Yahya (John), making true by statement from Allah and a master, and a limiter (of sin) and a prophet, among the ones of benefit/ the righteous.

My personal note:
The statement Musaddiqan bikalimatin min Allah was translated by me as making true by statement from Allah. This passage can carry many meanings that are not mutually exclusive. They include:

1- Declaring true words of Allah.
2- Carrying the words of Allah with truth and by truth.
3- Declaring true Jesus and his message. This is because Jesus was mentioned in the Qur’an as a statement or word from God. However, Muslims understand this statement that Jesus was created by a word from God, and not that Jesus was the word himself. That word was BE and he became being.


Translation of the transliterated words:
Fanadathu: So, they called him
Note: FA means so or therefore or then. NADATHU is derived from the root N-D-Y and it means in concrete dew or water touching a surface. It is also used for voice arriving to an entity. In both, the shared meaning is something touching or arriving at another entity. In this instance, it is the calling. NADAT is an action that is completed. It means: the action of voice arriving happened by the subject (third person plural feminine pointing to angels) in an interactive pattern to the object HU which means him. This interactive pattern takes the meaning of calling him and expecting him to respond.
Almalaikatu: the angels/ the messengers

Qaimun: Standing upright

QAIMUN is a word that explains a state of being. It means standing upright and within that meaning.
Yusallee: praying
Note: the root is Sad-L-W and it means the lower back in the concrete. MUSALLI is the horse that is in the race whose face is approaching the lower back of the horse ahead.

It means that the action of praying is being performed by the subject (third person singular pointing to Zachariah).

Note: Bi suggests that what comes after it is either an association with the action, a tool of the action or an object of the action or any combination of the three.

KALIMATIN is derived from the root K-L-M and it means wound or opening of the skin and that is the concrete word. It is also used to mean words or statements because those are the products of the opening of the mouth, which is an opening of the skin. KALIMATIN is a word or statement.

Hunalika daAAa zakariyya rabbahu qala rabbi hab lee min ladunka thurriyyatan tayyibatan innaka sameeAAu aldduAAai

The Aya says:
Then Zachariah called upon his nurturing Lord. He said: My Nurturing Lord, give me from Your generosity, good offspring/seed. Verily, You (are) all listening to the calling.

My personal note:
This Aya is interesting because the previous Aya reminded Zachariah that God provides whomever He wills. It also reminded Zachariah that God can provide even when it seemed impossible. It was then that he realized that he can call upon and ask his Lord for seed, which was the Arabic word that was used for children.

Translation of the transliterated words:
Hunalika: at that time, place/ then
daAAa: He called upon
Note: the root is D-Ain-Y and it means calling as in calling someone for help or otherwise. DaAAa is an action that is completed. It means that the action of calling or calling upon happened by the subject (third person singular pointing to Zachariah) and the object is Rabbahu= his nurturing Lord that is coming up.

Ladunka: at You/ Your presence/ Your Generosity/ You.
Note: LADUN means at and it carries different meanings according to the sentence. It means here Your presence, your generosity or just You.
Thurriyyatan: seeds/ offspring
Note: the root is TH-R-R and it means what one pinches with his hands or fingers and disperses. THURRIYATAN is the product of this dispersal and those are the seeds of the man or his garden or the offspring because the offspring is what a person disperses on earth.

Tayyibatan: purely good

The Aya says:
So her nurturing Lord accepted her with beautiful reception, and made her planted good planting, and He made Zachariah take care of her. Whenever Zachariah entered the most important place (of hers), he found provisions. He said: “O Mary how does this belong to you?!” She responded: “It is from Allah. Verily, Allah provides whomever He wills without measure.”

My personal note:
The good planting is a term that covers the issues of growing and raising a person and taking care of them which is similar to the growing and taking care of the plant.

AlMihrab is a word that I translated as the most important place. This meaning can cover the best part of the house, the most private and also the place of worship.

Translation of the transliterated words:
Fataqabbalaha: So, He accepted her
Note: FA means so or therefore or then. TAQABBALAHA is derived from the root Qaf-B-L and it means front. This is then carried in time or space or any plain of thought. It is used to mean acceptance and reception since we receive and accept using our fronts. TAQABBALA is an action that is completed that is derived from the root. It means the action of fronting was made to happen by the subject (third person singular pointing to God) to the object HA which means her.
Rabbuha: Her nurturing Lord

The Aya says:
As Imran’s wife said: “My nurturing Lord, I dedicated to You what is in my stomach, made free (of any other obligation). Therefore, accept from me. Verily, You (are) the all listening, the all knowing.

My personal note:
Here, the wife of Imran had dedicated what she was carrying in her pregnancy to God. The word Muharraran is understood as made free. It is to mean that the child is free of any other obligation or attachment except being dedicated to God.

Thurriyyatan baAAduha min baAAdin waAllahu sameeAAun AAaleemun

The Aya says:
Seed, some of her (is product) of some. And Allah (is) all listening, all knowing.

My personal note:
Thurriyya means seed or dispersion and is used to mean offspring. In here, it can be used to mean the offspring as their own children or grandchildren, but it also keeps the door open to their offspring that is the product of their education and of following their message. Both meanings are correct and not mutually exclusive. There is one exception and that is the offspring of any of those who do not follow the message, then they are excluded from this group.

إِنَّ اللّهَ اصْطَفَى آدَمَ وَنُوحًا وَآلَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَآلَ عِمْرَانَ عَلَى الْعَالَمِينَ
Inna Allaha istafa adama wanoohan waala ibraheema waala AAimrana AAala alAAalameena

The Aya says:
Verily, Allah chose, Adam and Noah and people of Abraham and people of Imran over all creation.

My personal note:
The word Istafa takes the meaning of the subject making purified or chosen the object for the subject. So, the Aya means that those people were chosen and purified by God for Himself. This means that they were chosen to serve God and propagate his message as well as other aspects of why God would choose some of his creation specifically for His service.

The words AALI were translated as people of. They can be the family of the person and that is correct, but on a wider scale, it involves all the people of the person and that includes the people that used the person as the leader or followed his path and direction.

Translation of the transliterated words:
Inna: Verily
Allaha: Allah
Istafa: made purified for Himself/ chose for Himself
Note: the root is Sad-F-W and it means clear and non turbid. In concrete it is the water that goes through the siv, therefore becomes clear of impurities. In abstract, it means clarity, purity and choice, as well as meanings of that genre. ISTAFA is an action that is complete that is derived from the root. It means that the action of making the object purified or chosen was done by the subject for the subject (third person singular pointing to Allah). The object/s are coming up.

Waala: and people of
Note: WA means and. ALI is derived from the root is Hamza-W-L and it means ultimate as a concept and takes different shapes and specific meanings according to the situation. ALI means: people who ultimately resort to the word that comes next. I shortened it to people of. They could be family of or the people that consider him their ultimate source and order and so forth.
Ibraheema: Abraham
Waala: and people of
Note: WA means and. ALI is derived from the root is Hamza-W-L and it means ultimate as a concept and takes different shapes and specific meanings according to the situation. ALI means: people who ultimately resort to the word that comes next. I shortened it to people of. They could be family of or the people that consider him their ultimate source and order and so forth.
AAimrana: Imran
Note: the bible mentions that this is the family of Moses, while here, the Qur’an is pointing to the family of Mary mother of Jesus (peace be upon all). Indeed both families have shared names since Mary is the same name as Miriam sister of Moses.
AAala: over/ on/ above
alAAalameena: All creation/ All humanity
Note: the root is Ain-L-M and it means knowledge or knowing. ALAAaLAMEENA means the known or the knowns. Since, it is talking about God, who knows everything, then it is pointing to all creation as in everything everywhere and anywhere and so forth.

قُلْ أَطِيعُواْ اللّهَ وَالرَّسُولَ فإِن تَوَلَّوْاْ فَإِنَّ اللّهَ لاَ يُحِبُّ الْكَافِرِينَ
Qul ateeAAoo Allaha waalrrasoola fain tawallaw fainna Allaha la yuhibbu alkafireena

The Aya says:
Say (O Muhammad): make yourselves obey Allah willingly, and the messenger. So, if they followed their own direction, then Allah does not love the rejecters.

My personal note:
The Aya points to the fact that obeying Allah and His messenger is part of the system and the direction that is to be taken by the people of God. It reminds us that people who take their own direction away from God’s path are people who are not loved by Allah.

Again, the theme is that of God’s love and ways to reach God’s love. We have to always work on loving God and on making God love us. The Aya mentions one of the ways of earning God’s love and that is following his direction and path willingly.

Translation of the transliterated words:
Qul: Say
Note: Note: the root is Qaf-W-L and it means saying. QUL is an order addressing a single person and it means: Say
ateeAAoo: obey willingly/ willingly comply
Note: the root Ta-W-ain and it means willingly comply, or obey approvingly and willingly. ATeeAAoo is an order to perform an action addressing a group of people. It means: make yourselves obey willingly and approvingly.
Allaha: Allah
Waalrrasoola: and the messenger

Note: the root is W-L-Y and it means direction or following direction. TAWALLAW is an action that is completed that is derived from the root. It means: the action of making oneself follow own direction happened by the subject (third person plural).
Fainna: So, verily

Note: the root is Ha-B-B and it means in concrete seed. This word also means love. As if the seed is the product of love or the love will end up in a seed. YUHIBBU is an action that is derived from the root and that is being completed or will be completed. It means: the action of loving is happening or will be happening by the subject (third person singular pointing to God). This, in effect means, HE loves
Alkafireena: The rejectors
Note: the root is K-F-R and it means covering. One of the concrete meanings of the word is the burying of the seed in the ground to plant it. This word also takes the meaning of rejecting or refusing something, since the person that rejects something will bury it in the ground. ALKAFIREENA are the rejecting ones or the rejecters.

قُلْ إِن كُنتُمْ تُحِبُّونَ اللّهَ فَاتَّبِعُونِي يُحْبِبْكُمُ اللّهُ وَيَغْفِرْ لَكُمْ ذُنُوبَكُمْ وَاللّهُ غَفُورٌ رَّحِيمٌ
Qul in kuntum tuhibboona Allaha faittabiAAoonee yuhbibkumu Allahu wayaghfir lakum thunoobakum waAllahu ghafoorun raheemun

The Aya says:
Say (O Muhammad) if you (plural) happened to love Allah then follow me, Allah will love you and forgive your sins. And Allah (is) forgiving, merciful.

My personal note:
The Aya is a reminder of the importance of love between people and God. It reminds people that they earn God’s love through following the teachings of his messenger. When they earn God’s love, He will provide them with protective cover against errors or sins. This protective cover protects from committing the error or from the effect of the error through forgiveness. It ends with the reminder of God’s mercy and protection/forgiveness to people.

Translation of the transliterated words:
Qul: Say
Note: Note: the root is Qaf-WL and it means saying. QUL is an order addressing a single person and it means: Say
In: if
Kuntum: you (plural) were/ you (plural) happened to be

TUHIBBOONA is an action that is being completed or will be completed. It means: the action of loving is happening or will be happening by the subject (second person plural) to the object (Allah, coming up). Because it came after Kuntum, then the sentence will take the meaning of: if you happened to be loving.
Allaha: Allah
faittabiAAoonee: then make yourselves follow me or join me
Note: FA means then or therefore or so. ITTABIAAooNI is derived from the root T-B-Ain and it means following footsteps or following behind, or joining and following.

Yuhbibkumu: He will love you

It means: the action of loving is happening or will be happening by the subject (third person singular pointing to Allah) to the object KUMU which means plural you.
Allahu: Allah
Wayaghfir: and He forgives/ and he protectively cover
Note: WA means and. YAGHFIR is derived from the root GH-F-R and it means the helmet of the soldier in the battle. This is one of the concrete words and the word is therefore used to mean protective covering in many fashions as in protecting the person from the error or protecting the person from the consequence of error and that is forgiveness. YAGHFIRU is an action that is derived from the root and that is being completed or will be completed. It means: the action of protectively covering is happening or will be happening by the subject (third person singular pointing to God). The object is thunoobakum=your sins and is coming up.
Lakum: To you (plural)
Thunoobakum: your sins/ your guilts
Note: the root is th-n-b and it means tail of an animal. However, it also has the meaning of sin or crime or error. Thunooba means sins or crimes of. KUM means plural you.
waAllahu: And Allah
ghafoorun: forgiving/ protectively covering
Note: the root is GH-F-R and it means covering for protection. The concrete word is the helmet of the fighter. GHAFOORUN is the one that covers to protect. This, in turn means protection from committing the sin and protection from the consequences of sin, which also means forgiving.

My personal note:
The Aya reminds us that we will find all what we do of good and bad on the Day of judgement. It reminds us that we will wish that our bad deeds are as far as they can be from us. The Aya again makes us aware of the danger of forgetting God and his orders, as it also assures us of God’s kindness and compassion towards us.

This is again a reminder not to take God for granted and to always work on the love of God combined with awareness of the danger of ignoring him and the awareness of his compassion and kindness and love towards us.

This is 3:28
لاَّ يَتَّخِذِ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ الْكَافِرِينَ أَوْلِيَاء مِن دُوْنِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَمَن يَفْعَلْ ذَلِكَ فَلَيْسَ مِنَ اللّهِ فِي شَيْءٍ إِلاَّ أَن تَتَّقُواْ مِنْهُمْ تُقَاةً وَيُحَذِّرُكُمُ اللّهُ نَفْسَهُ وَإِلَى اللّهِ الْمَصِيرُ
La yattakhithi almuminoona alkafireena awliyaa min dooni almumineena waman yafAAal thalika falaysa mina Allahi fee shayin illa an tattaqoo minhum tuqatan wayuhaththirukumu Allahu nafsahu waila Allahi almaseeru

The Aya says:
The ones who made themselves safe (in God) will not take the rejecters (as) guardians short of the ones who make themselves safe (in God). And whoever does that is not of Allah in any entity, except that you make yourselves conscious of them, consciousness. And Allah makes you aware of his own Self’s danger. And to Allah is the ending.

My personal note:
This Aya is important and enters in the polemics between Muslims and non Muslims. It centers on the use of the word Awliya which is often translated as friends. Awliya gives the meaning of people who are a combination or directors and guarantors. That is why I used the word guardians for the meaning. So Awliya can be understood as friends, but within that context which gives authority to direct a person in one or another direction and guarantee as well.
So, when God is asking the Mumins= believers or the ones who are safe in God not to take the rejecters as Awliya. He is, in essence, asking us to be independent from their direction, guarantee and guardianship. The Aya asks us to grant the guardianship only to those who are also safe in God. The Aya continues that it is ok to be conscious of the rejecters. Therefore consciousness (in whatever angle of meaning of this word) is fine, but guardianship and direction is not.

Another issue is the statement “And Allah makes you aware of His own Self’s danger”. This statement is a clear reminder to anyone never to take God for granted. It would be unwise to see this statement and say God is scary and dangerous while ignoring the Ayat that mention God’s love and Mercy. However, it is also unwise to see the Ayat that mention the Love and Mercy of God and forget this one as well. The big message is being aware of all. One ends up with the balance of the Love for God, the trust in His endless mercy, and the awareness of His danger if ignored or rejected.

Translation of the transliterated words:
La: not
Yattakhithi: they make themselves take/ they take
Note: the root is Hamza-KH-TH and it means taking. YATTAKHITHU is an action that is being completed or will be completed.

Note: the root Hamza-M-N and it means safety. ALMUMINOONA means the ones who made themselves safe.
Alkafireena: the rejecting ones/ the rejecters
Note: the root is K-F-R and it means covering. One of the concrete meanings of the word is the burying of the seed in the ground to plant it. This word also takes the meaning of rejecting or refusing something, since the person that rejects something will bury it in the ground. ALKAFIREENA are the rejecting ones or the rejecters.
Awliyaa: guardians/ directors and protectors at the same time.
Note: the root is W-L-Y and it means direction and protection at the same time. AWLIYAA are the ones that provide to others direction and protection. The closest meaning would guardians, since the guardians provide protection and direction. In the meaning is also friendship, and authority and so forth.

Note: the root is Qaf-D-R and it means in concrete cooking the meat in the pot. For abstract it takes the meaning of measuring and capability to perform according to the measure. QADEERUN means one who has the ability to measure and capability to perform accordingly. This takes the meaning of all capable.

3:25

Salaam all,

This is 3:25
فَكَيْفَ إِذَا جَمَعْنَاهُمْ لِيَوْمٍ لاَّ رَيْبَ فِيهِ وَوُفِّيَتْ كُلُّ نَفْسٍ مَّا كَسَبَتْ وَهُمْ لاَ يُظْلَمُونَ
Fakayfa itha jamaAAnahum liyawmin la rayba feehi wawuffiyat kullu nafsin ma kasabat wahum la yuthlamoona

The Aya says:
So how (about) if/ when we gathered them to a day, no doubt in him, and every self was made to meet her dues of what she earned?! And they will not be treated unfairly.

My personal note:
This Aya reminds us that God is Just. It also reminds us that all what we do is going to be accounted for in front of God. It has a suggestion that many people’s actions are going to have negative effects on them.

Translation of the transliterated words:
Fakayfa: So, how?!
Itha: if/ when
jamaAAnahum: we gathered them
Note: the root is J-M-Ain and it means gather the different parts together or putting things together. JAMaAANA is an action that is completed and that is derived from the root. It means: the action of gathering together happened by the subject (Third person plural pointing to God in a Royal sense or to God and the angels) to the object HUM which means them.
Liyawmin: to a day
Note: Li means to. YAMIN is derived from the root Y-W-M and it means day. YAWIM means a day and it spans a day and night cycle.
La: no
Rayba: doubt or disturbance
Note: the root is R-Y-B and it means doubt mixed with disturbance or suspecting badness. RAYBA means doubt or disturbance or a combination of the two
Feehi: in him
Wawuffiyat: And was made to meet her due
Note: WA means and. WUFFIYAT is derived from the root W-F-Y and it means meeting dues. WUFFIYAT is an action that is derived from the root and that is completed. It means: the action of making dues being met happened by an undisclosed subject on the object (third person singular feminine and points to Kullu nafsin= every self, coming up).
Kullu: every/ each
Note: the root is K-L-L and it means the parts put together. This is the concrete and it means all or every or each. KULLU means each or every in this situation.
Nafsin: Self
Note: NAFS means a self. It is a derivative of the root N-F-S and it means to breath. NAFSIN is a noun that is derived from this root and it means SELF.
Ma: What
Kasabat: She earned/she collected
Note: the root is K-S-B and it means earning or collecting. KASABAT is an action that is completed and that is derived from the root. It means: the action of earning of collecting happened by the subject (third person singular feminine pointing to Nafsin)
Wahum: and they
La: not
Yuthlamoona: will be transgressed against/will be treated unfairly
Note: the root is THa-L-M and it means darkness. This is one of the concrete meanings and it is used to mean decisions made in darkness which include transgression and displacement of right and wrong. YUTHLaMOONA is an action that is being completed or will be completed. It means: the action of being transgressing is happening or will be happening by the subject (undisclosed) to the object (third person plural). This in turn means: they will not be transgressed against or they will not be treated unfairly.

Salaam all and have a great day
