This is 3:136
أُوْلَـئِكَ جَزَآؤُهُم مَّغْفِرَةٌ مِّن رَّبِّهِمْ وَجَنَّاتٌ تَجْرِي مِن تَحْتِهَا الأَنْهَارُ خَالِدِينَ فِيهَا وَنِعْمَ أَجْرُ الْعَامِلِينَ
Olaika jazaohum maghfiratun min rabbihim wajannatun tajree min tahtiha alanharu khalideena feeha waniAAma ajru alAAamileena
The Aya says:
Those, their compensation (is) protective cover from their nurturing Lord including gardens, under which rivers flow, staying unchanged in her. And (the) best compensation for work of the doers.
My personal note:
This Aya completes the previous Aya in mentioning that those who have the features mentioned previously will receive the protective cover from their nurturing Lord. This protective cover includes the garden and the best compensation for their work. May God bless us with their features.
Translation of the transliterated words:
Olaika: those
Jazaohum: their compensation
Note: the root is J-Z-W and the meaning is to compensate and for the noun Compensation. JAZAO means compensation of. HUM means them.
Maghfiratun: protective cover/ forgiveness
Note: the root GH-F-R and it means the helmet of the soldier in the battle. This 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. MAGHFIRATUN is a protective cover or forgiveness.
Min: from
Rabbihim: their nurturing Lord
Note: the root is R-B-B and it means lord or king as well as nurturing and sustaining.

The nurturing lord is GOD, for he is our lord and nurturer/sustainer at the same time.
Wajannatun: and gardens/ and hidden entities

JANNATUN is derived from the root J-N-N and it means hidden or hiding.

JANNATUN means: gardens/ Hidden entities.
Tajree: She flows/ they flow
Note: the root is J-R-Y and it means flowing as in the flowing of the river or any movement that is smooth and relatively fast.

In abstract, it means anything that can be understood as soft as in soft to touch and soft in treatment and soft life as in a life that does not have much hardship. NiAAMA means: softness or best.

وَالَّذِينَ إِذَا فَعَلُواْ فَاحِشَةً أَوْ ظَلَمُواْ أَنْفُسَهُمْ ذَكَرُواْ اللّهَ فَاسْتَغْفَرُواْ لِذُنُوبِهِمْ وَمَن يَغْفِرُ الذُّنُوبَ إِلاَّ اللّهُ وَلَمْ يُصِرُّواْ عَلَى مَا فَعَلُواْ وَهُمْ يَعْلَمُونَ
Waallatheena itha faAAaloo fahishatan aw thalamoo anfusahum thakaroo Allaha faistaghfaroo lithunoobihim waman yaghfiru alththunooba illa Allahu walam yusirroo AAala ma faAAaloo wahum yaAAlamoona
The Aya says:
And those who, when/if they commit an ugly act, or transgress against themselves, they remembered Allah, therefore they sought protective cover from their sins. And who forgives the sins, but Allah?! And they did not insist on what they did, while knowing (that it is wrong).
My personal note:
This Aya is beautiful. It accepts that people who follow God’s path may commit sin or ugly acts (sexual or otherwise) or words. It also suggests that those sins harm the person who commits them more than anything and that is why they are considered a transgression against the self.
It also talks about protective cover that is sought and that is to protect them from the effect of sin on them. That protective cover is through the forgiveness from God, but also protection from God against other effects of the sin. The Aya points out that He alone is the one who provides protective cover.
The Aya ends up with another condition available in those people. That is that they do not insist on error once they know that it is wrong.

The Aya says:
Those who spend in the good time and the not good time, including the ones who restrain the anger and the ones who forgive the people, and Allah loves the ones who make goodness.
My personal note:
Here again the spending is not necessarily only monetary. It includes within it, the restraint of anger as well as erasing the burden of guilt through forgiveness. The erasing of burdens may also include within it’s meaning any other form of erasing burdens on people.

Salaam all,
This is 3:133
وَسَارِعُواْ إِلَى مَغْفِرَةٍ مِّن رَّبِّكُمْ وَجَنَّةٍ عَرْضُهَا السَّمَاوَاتُ وَالأَرْضُ أُعِدَّتْ لِلْمُتَّقِينَ
WasariAAoo ila maghfiratin min rabbikum wajannatin AAarduha alssamawatu waalardu oAAiddat lilmuttaqeena
The Aya says:
And make yourselves hurry to protective cover from your nurturing Lord, including a garden, her width (is) the universe/ the heavens and the earth. She (the garden) was prepared for those who make themselves act with heightened consciousness.
My personal note:
I chose “including” in translating WA which is usually translated as “and”. WA indicates inclusion of one word in another or all in the sentence or the wider subject. It is also because JANNA= garden/ hidden entity is included within the wider range of the meaning of the word Maghfira= protective cover, or forgiveness. Also the Earth is included within the wider definition of ALSSAMAWATU if one understands ALSSAMAWATU as the universe outside of the earth.
Translation of the transliterated words:
WasariAAoo: and hurry/ and make yourselves hurry
Note: WA links what is before with what is after. This is often through inclusion, either one in the other, or all in a bigger sentence or picture. It often but not always corresponds with and. SARiAAoo is derived from the root S-R-Ain and it means quick and fast. The concrete words related to this root include the neck and the back of the horse where one taps to make them go faster. SARiAAOO is an order to act addressed to a group of people. It means: make yourselves hurry in an interactive manner. This interactive manner can carry two meanings in it, helping each other and competing as well. Both meanings are actually synergistic to each other.
Ila: to
Maghfiratin: forgiveness/ protective cover
Note: the root GH-F-R and it means the helmet of the soldier in the battle. This 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. MAGHFIRATIN is a protective cover or forgiveness.
Min: from
Rabbikum: Your nurturing Lord
Note: the root is R-B-B and it means lord or king as well as nurturing and sustaining. The word is used for the head of the household and for the teacher because both are leaders over us and they nurture us in many ways. RABBI means: nurturing lord of. KUM is plural you. The nurturing lord is GOD, for he is our lord and nurturer/sustainer at the same time.
Wajannatin: and a garden/ including a garden
Note: WA links what is before with what is after. This is often through inclusion, either one in the other, or all in a bigger sentence or picture. It often but not always corresponds with and. JANNATIN is derived from the root J-N-N and it means hidden or hiding. It is therefore used to mean darkness because it hides as well as garden because gardens can be hidden or because it has less light than the place out in the sun for the Arabs of the desert. JANNATIN means: a garden/ Hidden entity.
AAarduha: her width
Note: the root is Ain-R-Dhad and it means width. As a conceptual meanings it has many applications such as: standing in the way or closing the road, but it also means presenting and make something seen, because things are seen better if one sees their width. AAaRDU means width of. HA means her and it points to JANNA=Garden.
Alssamawatu: The heavens/ the universe
Note: the root is S-M-W and it means rising. This word is used to mean many things that are related to that meaning. One of the meanings is name because when a person’s name is called, he or she would rise and respond. ALSSAMAWATU are the aboves or what are above, that is the skies or the heavens or any entity from the atmosphere to beyond that, basically the universe can be considered Alssamawatu.
Waalardu: and the earth/ including the earth
Note: WA links what is before with what is after. This is often through inclusion, either one in the other, or all in a bigger sentence or picture. It often but not always corresponds with and. ALARDU is derived from the root Hamza-R-Dhad and it means earth or land. ALARDI is the earth/ the land.
oAAiddat: was prepared/ she was prepared
Note: the root is Ain-D-D and it means counting or count. This takes then is the conceptual meaning that takes different forms according to the sentence. It can take the meaning of counting or preparation because that involves counting and putting all that is needed. oAAiDDAT is an action that happened. It means the action of counting or preparation happened by an undeclared subject to the object (JANNATUN= a garden)
Lilmuttaqeena: to those who make themselves act with heightened consciousness
Note: LI means to or for. ALUTTAQEEN is derived from the root W-Qaf-W and it means guarding or protecting. Since the best way to guard is through consciousness and action according to consciousness. ALMUTTAQEEN are those who make themselves act according to consciousness or with heightened consciousness.

This is 3:133
وَسَارِعُواْ إِلَى مَغْفِرَةٍ مِّن رَّبِّكُمْ وَجَنَّةٍ عَرْضُهَا السَّمَاوَاتُ وَالأَرْضُ أُعِدَّتْ لِلْمُتَّقِينَ
WasariAAoo ila maghfiratin min rabbikum wajannatin AAarduha alssamawatu waalardu oAAiddat lilmuttaqeena
The Aya says:
And make yourselves hurry to protective cover from your nurturing Lord, including a garden, her width (is) the universe/ the heavens and the earth. She (the garden) was prepared for those who make themselves act with heightened consciousness.
My personal note:
I chose “including” in translating WA which is usually translated as “and”. WA indicates inclusion of one word in another or all in the sentence or the wider subject. It is also because JANNA= garden/ hidden entity is included within the wider range of the meaning of the word Maghfira= protective cover, or forgiveness. Also the Earth is included within the wider definition of ALSSAMAWATU if one understands ALSSAMAWATU as the universe outside of the earth.
Translation of the transliterated words:
WasariAAoo: and hurry/ and make yourselves hurry
Note: WA links what is before with what is after. This is often through inclusion, either one in the other, or all in a bigger sentence or picture. It often but not always corresponds with and. SARiAAoo is derived from the root S-R-Ain and it means quick and fast. The concrete words related to this root include the neck and the back of the horse where one taps to make them go faster. SARiAAOO is an order to act addressed to a group of people. It means: make yourselves hurry in an interactive manner. This interactive manner can carry two meanings in it, helping each other and competing as well. Both meanings are actually synergistic to each other.
Ila: to
Maghfiratin: forgiveness/ protective cover
Note: the root GH-F-R and it means the helmet of the soldier in the battle. This 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. MAGHFIRATIN is a protective cover or forgiveness.
Min: from
Rabbikum: Your nurturing Lord
Note: the root is R-B-B and it means lord or king as well as nurturing and sustaining. The word is used for the head of the household and for the teacher because both are leaders over us and they nurture us in many ways. RABBI means: nurturing lord of. KUM is plural you. The nurturing lord is GOD, for he is our lord and nurturer/sustainer at the same time.
Wajannatin: and a garden/ including a garden
Note: WA links what is before with what is after. This is often through inclusion, either one in the other, or all in a bigger sentence or picture. It often but not always corresponds with and. JANNATIN is derived from the root J-N-N and it means hidden or hiding. It is therefore used to mean darkness because it hides as well as garden because gardens can be hidden or because it has less light than the place out in the sun for the Arabs of the desert. JANNATIN means: a garden/ Hidden entity.
AAarduha: her width
Note: the root is Ain-R-Dhad and it means width. As a conceptual meanings it has many applications such as: standing in the way or closing the road, but it also means presenting and make something seen, because things are seen better if one sees their width. AAaRDU means width of. HA means her and it points to JANNA=Garden.
Alssamawatu: The heavens/ the universe
Note: the root is S-M-W and it means rising. This word is used to mean many things that are related to that meaning. One of the meanings is name because when a person’s name is called, he or she would rise and respond. ALSSAMAWATU are the aboves or what are above, that is the skies or the heavens or any entity from the atmosphere to beyond that, basically the universe can be considered Alssamawatu.

WaateeAAoo Allaha waalrrasoola laAAallakum turhamoona
The Aya says:
And obey Allah and the messenger, perhaps you will receive Mercy.
My personal note:
The word that is between Allah and the messenger is the letter WAW. Waw is usually translated as and. However, it signifies inclusion, either that the two statements are included in each other or that they are included in a bigger statement or field. Here, it carries the meaning that obeying the messenger is included within obeying Allah. So, a person obeys Allah by obeying Allah as mentioned in His book. The person also obeys Allah by obeying the messenger. The two overlap but are not the same. However, it also means that the messenger will never order people to do something contrary to what God orders.
Translation of the transliterated words:

The concrete word is RASL and it means a group of people or animals that were sent by their owners or senders. ALRRASOOLA means the envoy or the messenger.
laAAallakum: perhaps
turhamoona: You (plural) will receive mercy
Note: the root is R-Ha-M and it means womb in concrete. This term is used to mean mercy and all the good that the womb provides. TURHAMOONA is an action that is being completed or will be completed. It means: the action of mercy will happen to the object (second person plural) by an undeclared subject.

Ya ayyuha allatheena amanoo la takuloo alrriba adAAafan mudaAAafatan waittaqoo Allaha laAAallakum tuflihoona
The Aya says:
O those who made themselves safe (in Allah) do not eat the usury (in) multiples repeatedly, and make your-selves act according to consciousness of Allah, perhaps you (plural) will cause success.
My personal note:
I used the word Usury for Riba and that is the more common use of it. ALRRIBA may have a wider range of meaning. It is derived from growth and increase and therefore can encompass within the understanding any excessive gain to exploit the need of others, whether through interest or other means.
The multiples here does not have to mean 1-2-4-8 but anything that is equal or above because it comes as done in escalation in this sentence.
Translation of the transliterated words:
Ya ayyuha allatheena: O those who
Note: the three words used here are callings.
Amanoo: made themselves safe
Note: the root is Hamza-M-N and it means safe or safety. AMANOO is an action that is derived from the root and that is completed. It means: the action of making the object (not mentioned and therefore the subject and the object can be the same entity here) become safe happened by the subject (third person plural). So, it ends up meaning: they made themselves safe.
La: Not
Takuloo: You (plural) eat
Note: the root is Hamza-K-L and it means eating. This will then take different meanings depending on the different planes of thought that a person has. TAKULOO is an action that is being completed or will be completed. It means the action of eating is happening or will be happening by the subject (second person plural)
Alrriba: : the usury/ the demand of more than you give
Note: The root is R-B-Y and it means becoming more than what was. This then means growth and increase in number and quality. ALRIBA is the becoming more in an interactive fashion. This is then taken to mean to give something and demand for more in return. This the Arabic word for Usury.
adAAafan: multiples
Note: the root Dhad-Ain-F and it means in concrete the folding of something in two equal parts. This has then two potential meanings one is multiplications from the minimal of equal to any degree that is above that with no upper limit but with the lower limit as equal. Usually, one knows the difference from the context of the sentence but also weakness comes as DaAAF while equal and above equal will come as DiAAF. Here, the multiplication meaning is the correct one linguistically. ADAAaFAN means multiples
mudaAAafatan: made multiples/ several times/escalated
Note: the root Dhad-Ain-F and it means in concrete the folding of something in two equal parts.

وَلِلّهِ مَا فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ وَمَا فِي الأَرْضِ يَغْفِرُ لِمَن يَشَاء وَيُعَذِّبُ مَن يَشَاء وَاللّهُ غَفُورٌ رَّحِيمٌ
Walillahi ma fee alssamawati wama fee alardi yaghfiru liman yashao wayuAAaththibu man yashao waAllahu ghafoorun raheemun
The Aya says:
And to Allah belongs what (is) in the heavens and what (is) in the earth. He forgives to whomever He wills and He makes suffer whomever He wills. And Allah (is) Forgiving, Merciful.
My personal note:
I used the word Heavens for the word Samawat. However, that word means above. Therefore, anything that is above the earth is called Sama. This includes the atmosphere and then the whole universe and what is beyond it. This word may have narrower definitions in other verses, if the context narrows it to some specific entity or by excluding some of the above entities from the description.
The Aya tells us that God provides protective cover or forgives whomever He wills. The protective cover is through forgiveness of sins and it also could be in protection from falling into sin or from the consequences of sin. The Aya leaves the options again open to God to forgive or to make us suffer for our sins. However, it ends up reminding us that Allah is the Merciful and the provider of protective cover. This means that if and when He makes us suffer, then we have to remember that His justice, Mercy, forgiveness and Wisdom are always in the background of that action.
Translation of the transliterated words:
Walillahi: and to Allah belongs
Ma: what
Fee: in
Alssamawati: the aboves / the heavens/ the beyond the earth
Note: the root is S-M-W and it means rising. This word is used to mean many things that are related to that meaning. One of the meanings is name because when a person’s name is called, he or she would rise and respond. ALSSAMAWATI are the aboves or what are above, that is the skies or the heavens or any entity from the atmosphere to beyond that.
Wama: and what
Fee: in
alardi: and the earth
Note: ALARDI is derived from the root Hamza-R-Dhad and it means earth or land. ALARDI is the earth/ the land.
Yaghfiru: he forgives/ he protectively covers
Note: the root GH-F-R and it means the helmet of the soldier in the battle. This 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 being completed or will be completed. It means: the action of protective covering or forgiveness is happening or will be happening by the subject (third person singular pointing to God). “Protective cover” means: protection from falling into error as well as protecting against the consequence of error.
Liman: to whomever
Yashao: He wills/ He entities
Note: the root is SH-Y-Hamza and it means entity for noun and to entity for the action. This means making a non entity become an entity, which also means making what was impossible possible, or what was non existent, existent or what was un-allowed allowed, and so forth. YASHAO is an action that is related to the root that is being completed or will be completed. It means: The entity is happening or will be happening by the subject (third person singular and points to God).
wayuAAaththibu: and He makes suffer
Note: WA is a letter that links what is before with what is after. This link is through inclusion, either one is included in the other or they are all included in the bigger sentence or bigger picture. YuAAaTHTHIBU is derived from the root Ain-TH-B and it means to avoid desirable food or drink (aAATHB) because of some suffering. YuAAaTHTHIBU is an action that is being completed or will be completed. It means: the action of making the object HUM= them suffer is happening or will be happening by the subject (third person singular pointing to God).
Man: whomever
Yashao: He wills/ He entities
Note: the root is SH-Y-Hamza and it means entity for noun and to entity for the action. This means making a non entity become an entity, which also means making what was impossible possible, or what was non existent, existent or what was un-allowed allowed, and so forth. YASHAO is an action that is related to the root that is being completed or will be completed. It means: The entity is happening or will be happening by the subject (third person singular and points to God).
waAllahu: And Allah
Ghafoorun: provider of protective cover/ forgiving
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
Raheemun: Merciful
Note: the root is R-Ha-M and it means womb in concrete. This term is used to mean mercy and all the good that the womb provides. RAHEEM is the one with the womb-like mercy.

This means that if and when He makes us suffer, then we have to remember that His justice, Mercy, forgiveness and Wisdom are always in the background of that action.
Translation of the transliterated words:
Walillahi: and to Allah belongs
Ma: what
Fee: in
Alssamawati: the aboves / the heavens/ the beyond the earth
Note: the root is S-M-W and it means rising. This word is used to mean many things that are related to that meaning. One of the meanings is name because when a person’s name is called, he or she would rise and respond. ALSSAMAWATI are the aboves or what are above, that is the skies or the heavens or any entity from the atmosphere to beyond that.
Wama: and what
Fee: in
alardi: and the earth
Note: ALARDI is derived from the root Hamza-R-Dhad and it means earth or land. ALARDI is the earth/ the land.
Yaghfiru: he forgives/ he protectively covers
Note: the root GH-F-R and it means the helmet of the soldier in the battle. This 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 being completed or will be completed. It means: the action of protective covering or forgiveness is happening or will be happening by the subject (third person singular pointing to God). “Protective cover” means: protection from falling into error as well as protecting against the consequence of error.
Liman: to whomever
Yashao: He wills/ He entities
Note: the root is SH-Y-Hamza and it means entity for noun and to entity for the action. This means making a non entity become an entity, which also means making what was impossible possible, or what was non existent, existent or what was un-allowed allowed, and so forth. YASHAO is an action that is related to the root that is being completed or will be completed. It means: The entity is happening or will be happening by the subject (third person singular and points to God).
wayuAAaththibu: and He makes suffer
Note: WA is a letter that links what is before with what is after. This link is through inclusion, either one is included in the other or they are all included in the bigger sentence or bigger picture. YuAAaTHTHIBU is derived from the root Ain-TH-B and it means to avoid desirable food or drink (aAATHB) because of some suffering. YuAAaTHTHIBU is an action that is being completed or will be completed. It means: the action of making the object HUM= them suffer is happening or will be happening by the subject (third person singular pointing to God).
Man: whomever
Yashao: He wills/ He entities
Note: the root is SH-Y-Hamza and it means entity for noun and to entity for the action. This means making a non entity become an entity, which also means making what was impossible possible, or what was non existent, existent or what was un-allowed allowed, and so forth. YASHAO is an action that is related to the root that is being completed or will be completed. It means: The entity is happening or will be happening by the subject (third person singular and points to God).
waAllahu: And Allah
Ghafoorun: provider of protective cover/ forgiving
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
Raheemun: Merciful
Note: the root is R-Ha-M and it means womb in concrete. This term is used to mean mercy and all the good that the womb provides. RAHEEM is the one with the womb-like mercy.
Salaam all and have a great day.

لَيْسَ لَكَ مِنَ الأَمْرِ شَيْءٌ أَوْ يَتُوبَ عَلَيْهِمْ أَوْ يُعَذَّبَهُمْ فَإِنَّهُمْ ظَالِمُونَ
Laysa laka mina alamri shayon aw yatooba AAalayhim aw yuAAaththibahum fainnahum thalimoona
The Aya says:
Not (belong) to you (Muhammad) of the implement an entity. Whether He brings repentance on them or He makes them suffer, then they (are) transgressors.
My personal note:
This Aya brings some important issues. The one important issue is that the authority of bringing repentance or suffering is with God alone. The second is that God keeps open the possibility of bringing repentance or accepting the repentance of those who transgress against themselves through sin and otherwise. He also keeps open the possibility of making people suffer for their transgressions. In either case, God is just, wise and merciful, all at the same time.
Translation of the transliterated words:
Laysa: not
Laka: to you (singular)/belongs to you
Mina: of/from
Alamri: the implement/ the order to implement.
Note: The root is Hamza-M-R and it means ordering something and the implementation of it. Sometimes it attains the implementation part or matter as in personal matter and so forth, and at times it is the order and implementation of the order, depending on the situation in the sentence. ALAMRI means the implement or the order to implement.
Shayon: an entity
Note: the root is SH-Y-Hamza and it means entity. SHAYON means entity.
Aw: or/ either
Yatooba: He arrives repentance/ He brings repentance
Note: the root is T-W-B and it means repentance or the ultimate return to GOD. The concrete word that is related is TABOOT and it means coffin which is what takes us to our ultimate return to GOD or repentance. YATOOBA is an action that is being completed or will be completed. It means: the action of repentance happened by the subject (third person singular pointing to God). Because it is followed by AAalayhim= on them, then it carries the meaning of He arrives repentance on them.
AAalayhim: on them
Aw: or
yuAAaththibahum: He makes them suffer
Note: the root is Ain-TH-B and it means to avoid desirable food or drink (aAATHB) because of some suffering. YuAAaTHTHIBU is an action that is being completed or will be completed. It means: the action of making the object HUM= them suffer is happening or will be happening by the subject (third person singular pointing to God).
Fainnahum: then they
Thalimoona: transgressors/ ones who make decisions in darkness/ the ones who misplace right and wrong.
Note: the root is THA-L-M and it means darkness in the most concrete form. This word also takes the meaning of misplacing right from wrong and transgression since it is misplacing right from wrong and a decision made in darkness. THALIMOONA are the ones in darkness, the transgressors or the mis-placers of right and wrong.
Salaam all and have a great evening.

لِيَقْطَعَ طَرَفًا مِّنَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ أَوْ يَكْبِتَهُمْ فَيَنقَلِبُواْ خَآئِبِينَ
LiyaqtaAAa tarafan mina allatheena kafaroo aw yakbitahum fayanqaliboo khaibeena
The Aya says:
In order to cut off a party of the people who rejected, or humiliate them, so they become flipped over without achievement.
My personal note:
This Aya continues the theme of the previous one where God continues that He will support the people who have safety in Him by cutting off a party of the rejecters by making them disappear, or that He will humiliate them into failure.
Translation of the transliterated words:
LiyaqtaAAa: To cut off/ to make disappear/ go away
Note: LI means to or in order to. YAQTaAAa is derived from the root Qaf-TTa-Ain and it means cutting as a conceptual meaning which can be very concrete or differently. In this sentence, it is used more to mean make go away or disappear. YAQTaAAa is an action that is being completed or will be completed. It means: the action of cutting is happening or will be happening by the subject (third person singular pointing to God) on the object (Tarafan= an edge, a party) that is coming up.
Tarafan: a group / an edge
Note: the root is TTA-R-F and it means in concrete the two edges of the eye or the upper and lower eye lids. The word is then used to mean seeing or vision or glimpse or edges as conceptual backgrounds. TARAFAN means edge or a group in this instance because the group is on an edge or a group is seen.
Mina: from
Allatheena: those who
Kafaroo: rejected
Note: the root is K-F-R and it means burying the seed in the ground for planting. It is used to mean rejection of an idea because that means covering the brain in the ground from the idea or covering the idea so that it is not known or seen. KAFAROO is an action that is derived from the root and that is completed. It means the action of rejection happened by the subject (third person plural pointing to any group that fits the description. Here it points to allatheena= those who). It means they rejected.
Aw: or
Yakbitahum: make them defeated/ make them burdened/ make them humiliated
Note: the root is K-B-T and it means humiliation and defeat and burden. YUKBITA is an action that is being completed or will be completed. It means: the action of making the object (HUM= them) defeated or burdened or humiliated is happening or will be happening by the subject (third person singular pointing to God).
Fayanqaliboo: so they turn around/ so they flip over
Note: FA means then or therefore or so. YANQALIBOO is derived from the root Qaf-L-B and it means turning 180 degrees or upside down. The word is used for heart, because it is the organ that changes it’s moods often. YANQALIBOO is an action that is being completed or will be completed. It means: the action of turning around or flipping over or upside down is happening or will be happening to the object (third person plural) without mention of a subject.
Khaibeena: in a state of failure/ in a state of lack of achievement.
Note: the root is KH-Y-B and it means inability to achieve the goal that one was trying to achieve. This is then used for failure in the conceptual way. KHAIBEENA means in a state of failure or a state of lack of achievement.

Wama jaAAalahu Allahu illa bushra lakum walitatmainna quloobukum bihi wama alnnasru illa min AAindi Allahi alAAazeezi alhakeemi
The Aya says:
And Allah did not make him (the angel’s support) except glad tidings to you (plural), and to make your hearts and minds secure by him. And the support is but from at Allah’s, the dominantly strong, the wise.
My personal note:
The Aya continues that the news of the help from the angels in that battle is mainly glad tidings to the followers of the messenger, in order to calm their emotions and minds. It then reminds them that all help comes only from Allah.
The Aya ends up with two attributes of Allah the dominantly strong and the wise, to remind us to have safety in them. God puts the wise, just after the dominantly strong to make us feel that all this strength and dominance are in the Hand of the wise, who will use them only for the best causes and in the best way.
Translation of the translated words:
Wama: and not
jaAAalahu: He made him
Note: the root is J-Ain-L and it means making or to make. JaAAaLA is an action that is completed. It means: the action of making the object (HU= him, pointing to the support with the angels) happened by the subject (third person singular pointing to Allah, coming up).
Allahu: Allah

Lakum: to you (plural)
Walitatmainna: an in order that they become calm/ secure
Note: WA links what is before with what is after it. This is a link through inclusion, either one included in the other or all are included in a bigger picture or statement.

TATMAINNA is an action that is derived from the root that is ongoing or incomplete. It means: the action of becoming calm or secure is happening or will be happening by the subject (third person plural and it the next word)
Quloobukum: your hearts/ your minds and hearts/ your thoughts and emotions
Note: The root is Qaf-L-B and it means turning an entity upside down or 180 degrees. It is used to mean emotion and thought or heart. This is because the three change in 180 degrees as in changing thoughts and emotions. QULOOBU means emotions and thoughts or hearts of. KUM means plural you.
Bihi: by Him (the support from the angels)
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. If bi serves as an object of the action that it serves as an emphasis of the action.

Salaam all,
This is 3:125
بَلَى إِن تَصْبِرُواْ وَتَتَّقُواْ وَيَأْتُوكُم مِّن فَوْرِهِمْ هَـذَا يُمْدِدْكُمْ رَبُّكُم بِخَمْسَةِ آلافٍ مِّنَ الْمَلآئِكَةِ مُسَوِّمِينَ
Bala in tasbiroo watattaqoo wayatookum min fawrihim hatha yumdidkum rabbukum bikhamsati alafin mina almalaikati musawwimeena
The Aya says:
But yes, if you self restrain and make your-selves guard and they will come to you from this very moment. Your nurturing Lord will extend you with five thousand of the angels, making perceived effect.
My personal note:
The Aya again emphasized the issue of self restraint/patience and guarding or consciousness as the most important qualities in times of distress and extreme tension. I find this important because self restraint is about patience, but also about not overreacting or overdoing things. Guarding is about consciousness and allowing what should be allowed, while preventing what should be prevented. Both are great lessons in how not to let your emotions overtake you at times when they are most high.
Translation of the transliterated words:
Bala: But yes/ Yea
In: If
Tasbiroo: you (plural) are patient/ you (plural) self restrain
Note: the root is Sad-B-R and it means jail or prison. The word is used to mean patience and restraint at the same time, since both are about imprisoning our negative emotions, thoughts, and the push to act uninhibited. TASBIROO is an action that is being completed or will be completed. It means: the action of being patient or self restrain are happening or will be happening by the subject (second person plural).
Watattaqoo: and make yourselves conscious/ make yourselves guard.
Note: WA links what is before with what is after it through inclusion. Either in having one of the two included in another, or both are included in something bigger. TATTAQOO is derived from the root W-Qaf-Y and it means guarding and the best form of guarding is consciousness. TATTAQOO is an action that is being completed or will be completed. It means: the action of making oneself conscious or guard is happening or will be happening by the subject (second person plural).
Wayatookum: and they come to you/ including they will come to you.
Note: WA links what is before with what is after it through inclusion. Either in having one of the two included in another, or both are included in something bigger. YATOOKUM is derived from the root Hamza-T-Y and it means in concrete the water that comes from the rain of another land. In concrete it means the coming of something or someone with many of it’s implications. YATOOKUM is an action that is being completed or will be completed. It means: the action of making come to the object (KUM means plural you) is happening or will be happening by the subject (third person plural pointing to the angels).
Min: from
Fawrihim: their moment/ Their gushing moment.
Note: The root is F-W-R and it means in concrete: the water or milk when it boils over the pot or the water that comes out rapidly from the rock, as in the spring or the blood that is gushing out of the vein or artery. Therefore, conceptually, the meaning carries rapid gushing movement at a point in time or in a sudden fashion. FAWRI means gushing of. HIM means them.
Hatha: this one
Yumdidkum: He extends you/ He expands you
Note: the root is M-D-D and it means extension or expansion. Some concrete uses of the word are the high tide, when the sea expands, and also when the person lies down and expands himself or herself. YUMDID is an action that is being completed or will be completed. It means: the action of making the object (KUM= plural you) extended or expanded is happening or will be happening by the subject (third person singular).
Rabbukum: Your nurturing Lord
Note: Note: the root is R-B-B and it means lordship and nurturing at the same time. It gives authority and nurture at the same time. RABBU means nurturing Lord of. KUM means plural you.
Bikhamsati: by five/ with five
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. If bi serves as an object of the action that it serves as an emphasis of the action. Here, the action is the extending or expanding. Khamsati is derived from the root KH-M-S and it means five. KHAMSATI means five.
Alafin: thousands
Note: The root is Hamza-L-F and it means thousand as a number. It also is used to mean repeated exposure to an entity which leads to familiarity and affection/friendship. ALAFIN means thousands.
Mina: from/ of
Almalaikati: the angels
Note: The root is L-Hamza-K and it means messenger. ALMALAIKATI means the messenger and is used for the angels since they are the messengers of God to his people and human messengers.
Musawwimeena: making showing/ making perceived effect.
Note: the root of the word is S-Y-M and it means in one of the concrete meanings putting the merchandise on display so that the buyers will know it. The word then has many other uses that revolve around showing and making known or distinguished something or putting something on display. MUSAWWIMEENA are the entities that make things shown. I used the meaning of making perceived effect.
This is 3:125
بَلَى إِن تَصْبِرُواْ وَتَتَّقُواْ وَيَأْتُوكُم مِّن فَوْرِهِمْ هَـذَا يُمْدِدْكُمْ رَبُّكُم بِخَمْسَةِ آلافٍ مِّنَ الْمَلآئِكَةِ مُسَوِّمِينَ
Bala in tasbiroo watattaqoo wayatookum min fawrihim hatha yumdidkum rabbukum bikhamsati alafin mina almalaikati musawwimeena
The Aya says:
But yes, if you self restrain and make your-selves guard and they will come to you from this very moment. Your nurturing Lord will extend you with five thousand of the angels, making perceived effect.
My personal note:
The Aya again emphasized the issue of self restraint/patience and guarding or consciousness as the most important qualities in times of distress and extreme tension. I find this important because self restraint is about patience, but also about not overreacting or overdoing things. Guarding is about consciousness and allowing what should be allowed, while preventing what should be prevented. Both are great lessons in how not to let your emotions overtake you at times when they are most high.
Translation of the transliterated words:
Bala: But yes/ Yea
In: If
Tasbiroo: you (plural) are patient/ you (plural) self restrain
Note: the root is Sad-B-R and it means jail or prison. The word is used to mean patience and restraint at the same time, since both are about imprisoning our negative emotions, thoughts, and the push to act uninhibited. TASBIROO is an action that is being completed or will be completed. It means: the action of being patient or self restrain are happening or will be happening by the subject (second person plural).
Watattaqoo: and make yourselves conscious/ make yourselves guard.
Note: WA links what is before with what is after it through inclusion. Either in having one of the two included in another, or both are included in something bigger. TATTAQOO is derived from the root W-Qaf-Y and it means guarding and the best form of guarding is consciousness. TATTAQOO is an action that is being completed or will be completed. It means: the action of making oneself conscious or guard is happening or will be happening by the subject (second person plural).
Wayatookum: and they come to you/ including they will come to you.
Note: WA links what is before with what is after it through inclusion. Either in having one of the two included in another, or both are included in something bigger. YATOOKUM is derived from the root Hamza-T-Y and it means in concrete the water that comes from the rain of another land. In concrete it means the coming of something or someone with many of it’s implications. YATOOKUM is an action that is being completed or will be completed. It means: the action of making come to the object (KUM means plural you) is happening or will be happening by the subject (third person plural pointing to the angels).
Min: from
Fawrihim: their moment/ Their gushing moment.
Note: The root is F-W-R and it means in concrete: the water or milk when it boils over the pot or the water that comes out rapidly from the rock, as in the spring or the blood that is gushing out of the vein or artery. Therefore, conceptually, the meaning carries rapid gushing movement at a point in time or in a sudden fashion. FAWRI means gushing of. HIM means them.
Hatha: this one
Yumdidkum: He extends you/ He expands you
Note: the root is M-D-D and it means extension or expansion. Some concrete uses of the word are the high tide, when the sea expands, and also when the person lies down and expands himself or herself.

It means: the action of making the object (KUM= plural you) extended or expanded is happening or will be happening by the subject (third person singular).

Note: Note: the root is R-B-B and it means lordship and nurturing at the same time. It gives authority and nurture at the same time. RABBU means nurturing Lord of. KUM means plural you.
Bikhamsati: by five/ with five
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. If bi serves as an object of the action that it serves as an emphasis of the action. Here, the action is the extending or expanding. Khamsati is derived from the root KH-M-S and it means five. KHAMSATI means five.
Alafin: thousands
Note: The root is Hamza-L-F and it means thousand as a number. It also is used to mean repeated exposure to an entity which leads to familiarity and affection/friendship. ALAFIN means thousands.
Mina: from/ of
Almalaikati: the angels
Note: The root is L-Hamza-K and it means messenger. ALMALAIKATI means the messenger and is used for the angels since they are the messengers of God to his people and human messengers.
Musawwimeena: making showing/ making perceived effect.
Note: the root of the word is S-Y-M and it means in one of the concrete meanings putting the merchandise on display so that the buyers will know it. The word then has many other uses that revolve around showing and making known or distinguished something or putting something on display. MUSAWWIMEENA are the entities that make things shown. I used the meaning of making perceived effect.

The Aya says:
And verily Allah supported you in Badr, while you (plural) were vulnerable to domination. Therefore, make yourselves conscious of Allah. Perhaps you will thank.
My personal note:
The Aya reminds the followers who became weak in that mentioned battle that they were weaker in Badr (the previous battle) and they were supported by Allah. This is then used as a reminder to thank God for His support.
Translation of the transliterated words:

Ith hammat taifatani minkum an tafshala waAllahu waliyyuhuma waAAala Allahi falyatawakkali almuminoona
The Aya says:
As/when two groups amongst you commenced to become weak/ unable to withstand, while Allah (is) their guardian. And on Allah then should depend the ones who made themselves safe.
My personal note:
The Aya continues that two groups concerned themselves with inability to withstand the fight. It assured them that Allah is the guardian.
The Aya brings the issue of dependence on God. From the understanding of this Aya, “the dependance on God” means: Do all that you need to do and then leave the rest to God, especially in the matters that one cannot control nor anticipate. It does not mean nor should it ever mean: don’t do anything for God will take care of it.
Translation of the transliterated words:
Ith: As/ when
Hammat: She/they concerned and began working on it/ She/they concerned/ they commenced
Note: the root is H-M-M and it means concern as a concept. This is extended to sadness because it is great concern and in action, it encompasses the concern with or without commencement. HAMMAT is an action that is completed. It means: the action of concerning the subject (third person singular or plural feminine pointing to Taifatun= a group) happened.
Taifatani: Two groups
Note: the root is TTa-W-F and it means to go around something in circles so that you get the feeling that you surround it. This is the concrete meaning and the abstract can be related to it especially the meaning of knowing something very well and being keen about it. TAIFATANI means two circles in a conceptual manner. In the context of this Aya, it takes the meaning of two group.
Minkum: from you (plural)/ amongst you
An: that/ to
Tafshala: fail/ become unable to stand pressure
Note: the root is F-SH-L and it means weakness and lack of courage and fear. Conceptually, it carries the meaning of inability to stand to a challenge and failure. TAFSHALA is an action that is being completed or will be completed. It means: the action of failing or becoming unable to stand pressure is happening or will be happening by the subject (dual form feminine pointing to Taifatan= two groups).
waAllahu: and Allah/ while Allah
waliyyuhuma: Their guardian/ guardian of the two groups
Note: the root is W-L-Y and it means direction or following direction with being assured of some kind of guarantee. WALIYY is the person that follows the direction and expects guarantee, or the one whose direction is followed and does the guarantee, in short the guardian. Here, is means guardian as indicated by the context of the sentence. WALIYYU means guardian of. HUMA= the two.
waAAala: and on
Allahi: Allah
Falyatawakkali: then should depend
Note: Fa means then or so or therefore. LI points to should. YATAWAKKALI is derived from the root W-K-L and it means dependence as a concept which could be used in different fashions as dependence for aid and so forth. YATAWAKKALI is an action that is being completed or will be competed. It means: the action where the subject (third person plural) is making itself depend or will be making itself depend on the object (Allah, mentioned earlier).
Almuminoona: the ones who make themselves safe (in Allah and the message)
Note: the root Hamza-M-N and it means safety. ALMUMINOONA means the ones who made themselves safe.

Salaam all,
This is 3:121
وَإِذْ غَدَوْتَ مِنْ أَهْلِكَ تُبَوِّىءُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ مَقَاعِدَ لِلْقِتَالِ وَاللّهُ سَمِيعٌ عَلِيمٌ
Waith ghadawta min ahlika tubawwio almumineena maqaAAida lilqitali waAllahu sameeAAun AAaleemun
The Aya says:
And as/when you left in early morning from your family (in order) to land the ones who made themselves safe (in Allah) bases for the fight. And Allah (is) all listening, all knowing.
My personal note:
The previous Ayat were talking about some people who were hiding hatred against the messenger. Now, the Aya here proceeds to describe the preparation for a battle that the prophet was involved in against his enemies.
Translation of the transliterated words:
Waith: and when
Ghadawta: left in pre-sunrise
Note: the root is GH-D-W and it means the time just before sunrise. It is used to mean early morning and also next day or a future day according to the context of the sentence. It is also used to mean leaving or moving in early morning. GHADAWTA is an action that is completed. It means: the action of early morning/pre-sunrise happened by the subject (second person singular pointing to the prophet pbuh). This is then taken to mean: you moved in pre-sunrise or you left in pre-sunrise and so forth.
Min: from
Ahlika: your family/people
Note: the root is Hamza-H-L and one concrete meaning to the word is the fat that surrounds the back of the animal. It is used conceptually to mean family or any of the people that are closely associated with the entity being discussed. This could be because they are like the fat as in they engulf and protect and so forth and gain protection at the same time. AHLI means family of. KA means singular you.
Tubawwio: you make placed/ you make landed
Note: the root B-W-Hamza and it means landing in a conceptual manner and therefore will take different meanings according to the context. It is used for marriage often because the one who gets married lands in a house and so forth. TUBAWWIO is an action that is being completed or will be completed. It means: the action of making the object (Almumineena= the ones who made themselves safe) land or be placed is being made to happen or will be made to happen by the subject (second person singular).
Almumineena: the ones who made themselves safe (in Allah and His message)
Note: the root Hamza-M-N and it means safety. ALMUMINEENA means the ones who made themselves safe.
maqaAAida: seats/ positions/ bases
Note: the root is Qaf-Ain-D and it means sitting or seat. It is then used conceptually to mean base because things sit on top of the base and so forth. MAQaAAiDA are places of seats or places of base. Here, it means bases or seats or positions.
Lilqitali: to the fighting/for the fighting
Note: LI means to. LQITAL is derived from the root Qaf-T-L and it means killing. QITAL is an interactive word that means killing opposite killing. Therefore the one in QITAL is the person that is in the process of responding to another that is trying to kill him. This, in essence is the fighting, or the response to aggression through fighting back.
waAllahu: and Allah
sameeAAun: All listening/ all hearing
Note: the root is s-m-ain and it means hear or listen. The word has in it the absorption of the words and the understanding of them as to generate the appropriate response. Sameeaaun is the one that listens a lot or the all listening.
AAaleemun: All knowing
Note: the root is Ain-L-M and it means knowledge or knowing. AAaLEEMUN means all knowing.
Salaam all and have a great evening.
