يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُواْ لاَ تُبْطِلُواْ صَدَقَاتِكُم بِالْمَنِّ وَالأذَى كَالَّذِي يُنفِقُ مَالَهُ رِئَاء النَّاسِ وَلاَ يُؤْمِنُ بِاللّهِ وَالْيَوْمِ الآخِرِ فَمَثَلُهُ كَمَثَلِ صَفْوَانٍ عَلَيْهِ تُرَابٌ فَأَصَابَهُ وَابِلٌ فَتَرَكَهُ صَلْدًا لاَّ يَقْدِرُونَ عَلَى شَيْءٍ مِّمَّا كَسَبُواْ وَاللّهُ لاَ يَهْدِي الْقَوْمَ الْكَافِرِينَ
Ya ayyuha allatheena amanoo la tubtiloo sadaqatikum bialmanni waalatha kaallathee yunfiqu malahu riaa alnnasi wala yuminu biAllahi waalyawmi alakhiri famathaluhu kamathali safwanin AAalayhi turabun faasabahu wabilun fatarakahu saldan la yaqdiroona AAala shayin mimma kasaboo waAllahu la yahdee alqawma alkafireena

The Aya says:
O those who made themselves safe (in God and his message), do not void your charities by reproach and harm, like the one that spends his money to see and be seen by the people and does not make himself safe in Allah and the Day of judgment. So, his similitude is similar to a rock covered with soil, then hit by heavy rain that left it bare. They cannot measure and perform on any entity of what they earned. And Allah does not guide the rejecting people (of Him and his message).

My personal note:
The Aya continues to ask us to pay attention to the charity that we perform that we should not make it void through reproach and harm to the people. This can be a proof that what we do is basically an act of showing off rather than a true act of charity. This is also a proof of not making ourselves being safe in God.

Such wrong acts after charity are likened to a rock with soil on top, then it was left bare after heavy rain. God asks us not to make ourselves being left bare

The Aya says:
And as Abraham said: My nurturing Lord, show me how you make the dead live. HE (Allah) said: Did you not make yourself safe (in this belief)?. He (Abraham) said: yes, but in order that my heart become calm/secure. He (God) said: Then take four of the birds and tighten them to you, then put on each mountain a part of them, then call them, they will come to you hurriedly and know that Allah (is) strong, defeats pressure, wise.

My personal note:
The Aya brings an important aspect and that of Abraham asking to see how the dead become alive. In a sense, it acknowledges that this is something difficult to believe, but it shows Abraham that God indeed, has the ability of making the dead live.

One may ask, why would God show Abraham this but not others? The answer is with God, but one potential answer is that answer was carrying the message, while we as people, just respond to the message.

The Aya says:
Or, like the one who passed by a village and she is ruined on her fallen roofs. He said: How will Allah make this live after her death?! Therefore, Allah made him die a hundred years and then sent him (back to life). He (God) said: How long did you stay? He answered: I stayed a day or part of a day. HE (God) said: but you stayed a hundred years, so look at your food and drink (that) did not age, and look at your donkey, and in order that WE make you a sign to the people. And look at the bones how we raise them, then clothe them flesh. So, when it made itself clear to him, he said: I know that Allah, on every entity (is) capable of measuring and performing.

My personal note:
This is another sign of someone that questioned God’s ability of making people or things live after their death. God made him die for a hundred years where the food and drink was not touched, but the donkey was nearly disappeared. God brought back the donkey to life and showed this man how that happens. The man then believed in God’s ability and God made him a sign to the people.

The message is that God is capable of anything and everything, no matter how questionable it is to the people.

Salaam all,

This is 2:258
أَلَمْ تَرَ إِلَى الَّذِي حَآجَّ إِبْرَاهِيمَ فِي رِبِّهِ أَنْ آتَاهُ اللّهُ الْمُلْكَ إِذْ قَالَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ رَبِّيَ الَّذِي يُحْيِـي وَيُمِيتُ قَالَ أَنَا أُحْيِـي وَأُمِيتُ قَالَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ فَإِنَّ اللّهَ يَأْتِي بِالشَّمْسِ مِنَ الْمَشْرِقِ فَأْتِ بِهَا مِنَ الْمَغْرِبِ فَبُهِتَ الَّذِي كَفَرَ وَاللّهُ لاَ يَهْدِي الْقَوْمَ الظَّالِمِينَ
Alam tara ila allathee hajja ibraheema fee rabbihi an atahu Allahu almulka ith qala ibraheemu rabbiya allathee yuhyee wayumeetu qala ana ohyee waomeetu qala ibraheemu fainna Allaha yatee bialshshamsi mina almashriqi fati biha mina almaghribi fabuhita allathee kafara waAllahu la yahdee alqawma alththalimeena

The Aya says:
Did you not see to the one who debated Abraham in his nurturing Lord? that Allah gave him (the debater) the kingship? As Abraham said: My nurturing Lord (is) the one that makes live and makes die. He (the debater) said: I make live and make die. Abraham said: then Allah brings the sun from the east, so bring it from the west. So, the one that rejected was taken aback/was exposed to be false. And Allah does not guide the transgressing group.

My personal note:
This Aya mentions a debate between a king and Abraham about the abilities of God vs the abilities of that man. Eventually, Abraham pointed to the man where he had no control and he was taken aback by the falsehood of his ideas.

The Aya ends up with the very important statement that Allah does not gift his guidance to the groups that transgresses/makes decisions in the darkness. This is an important message since it asks us to always be righteous/makes decisions in light, in order to receive the gift of guidance from God.

And, (as for) the rejecters, their directors, protectors are the big entities of wrong. They make them exit from the light to the darkness. Those (are) companions of Hell. They (are) in her, staying.

My personal note:
The theme of light and darkness is prominent in the Qur’an. Light is where we want to be, in order to help us see right from wrong.

I used as the meaning of WALIYY to mean director as the one whose direction we follow and at the same time is a protector because HE guarantees that that direction is the safe right one.

Translation of the transliterated words:
Allahu: Allah/God

Salaam all,

This is 2:256
لاَ إِكْرَاهَ فِي الدِّينِ قَد تَّبَيَّنَ الرُّشْدُ مِنَ الْغَيِّ فَمَنْ يَكْفُرْ بِالطَّاغُوتِ وَيُؤْمِن بِاللّهِ فَقَدِ اسْتَمْسَكَ بِالْعُرْوَةِ الْوُثْقَىَ لاَ انفِصَامَ لَهَا وَاللّهُ سَمِيعٌ عَلِيمٌ
La ikraha fee alddeeni qad tabayyana alrrushdu mina alghayyi faman yakfur bialttaghooti wayumin biAllahi faqadi istamsaka bialAAurwati alwuthqa la infisama laha waAllahu sameeAAun AAaleemun

The Aya says:
No forcing against will in the obligation/religion. Verily, the right path made itself clear from the wrong. Therefore, whoever rejects the big entities of wrong and makes himself/herself safe in Allah, then he sought and gripped the secure handle. No break to her (the secure handle), and Allah is all hearing, all knowing.

My personal note:
I did translate the word Deen which is usually used to mean religion as an obligation. That is because the word has meanings of obligation in all it’s meaning. This makes Deen=religion as the obligation of man towards God.

The big entities of wrong is an open to interpretation word that may include in it's meaning the idols or the leaders that lead their people the wrong path. Both meanings are not mutually exclusive.

The Aya declares that there is no forcing against will in our obligation to God. This will also be the inspiration in our interaction with each other where we do not force each other to do anything against will. This rule will be obviously open to exception in case there is harm or potential harm if no interference is made.

Translation of the transliterated words:
La: no
Ikraha: forcing against will
Note: the root is K-R-H and it means doing something when unwilling and hating to do it. Therefore, it takes the meaning of hating to do something and being forced to do something against will. IKRAHA means forcing against will.
Fee: in
Alddeeni: the obligation/the religion
Note: the root is D-Y-N and it has many meanings including law, religion and debt. What connects all is the obligation or a sense of obligation to comply. ALDEEN is the obligation. It can be understood as the religion if one understood religion as the obligation of the human towards God.
Qad: verily
Tabayyana: he made self clear/clarified
Note: the root is B-Y-N and it means between. This is the concrete word and in other meanings, it gives the meaning of betweening as clarifying or distancing between things.

Salaam all,

This is 2:255
اللّهُ لاَ إِلَـهَ إِلاَّ هُوَ الْحَيُّ الْقَيُّومُ لاَ تَأْخُذُهُ سِنَةٌ وَلاَ نَوْمٌ لَّهُ مَا فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ وَمَا فِي الأَرْضِ مَن ذَا الَّذِي يَشْفَعُ عِنْدَهُ إِلاَّ بِإِذْنِهِ يَعْلَمُ مَا بَيْنَ أَيْدِيهِمْ وَمَا خَلْفَهُمْ وَلاَ يُحِيطُونَ بِشَيْءٍ مِّنْ عِلْمِهِ إِلاَّ بِمَا شَاء وَسِعَ كُرْسِيُّهُ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالأَرْضَ وَلاَ يَؤُودُهُ حِفْظُهُمَا وَهُوَ الْعَلِيُّ الْعَظِيمُ
Allahu la ilaha illa huwa alhayyu alqayyoomu la takhuthuhu sinatun wala nawmun lahu ma fee alssamawati wama fee alardi man tha allathee yashfaAAu AAindahu illa biithnihi yaAAlamu ma bayna aydeehim wama khalfahum wala yuheetoona bishayin min AAilmihi illa bima shaa wasiAAa kursiyyuhu alssamawati waalarda wala yaooduhu hifthuhuma wahuwa alAAaliyyu alAAatheemu

The Aya says:
Allah, No God but HE, the living, the standing, neither slumber nor sleep take him. To him belongs what (is) in the heavens and in the earth. Who will intercede at his presence except with/by his knowledge and approval?! He knows what (is) in between their hands and what (is) behind them, and they do not encircle with entity of his knowledge except by what HE entitied. His stack/cumulate encompassed the heavens and the earth, and maintaining them does not tire him, and he (is) the high, the great.

My personal note:
There are many words where I used the concrete words and they can be understood in abstract or in the concrete with the understanding that the concrete is totally different from the concrete that may come to our minds:
The standing: It can mean standing as in being unchanged or any other meaning of standing that is consistent with the word and that does not make God look human.

What is in between their hands and what is behind them: This can mean the present and the future, but it also can mean what is in their power or beyond their power and so forth.

The KURSI is concretely translated by me as stack or cumulate with the acceptance of other abstract meanings that are related to this concept. It can also be translated as seat or chair. In traditional tafsirs, that word was translated as seat and it was translated as knowledge as well. Knowledge and seat fit with the word stack and cumulate since the seats to the Arabs of the time were stacks of things put on top of each other and the one with the higher seat had a bigger stack. Knowledge, is also a stack or a cumulate since one accumulates knowledge.
