Falamma raa alshshamsa bazighatan qala hatha rabbee hatha akbaru falamma afalat qala ya qawmi innee bareeon mimma tushrikoona

The aya says:
So when he (Abraham) saw the sun shining through he said this is my nurturing Lord, this is bigger. So when she (the sun) faded away he said: O my people, I am dissociated from what you partner (with Allah).

My personal note:
The previous passage of Ayat is reaching it’s conclusion here. When he saw the sun, it was more impressive but it also faded and lost it’s influence, so it lost the criteria of being a nurturing Lord. So, then he returned to his people saying that all those entities that you have contemplated as your Gods fail and I do not want to be part of it.

The people of tafsir differed whether this passage was a matter of self discovery that eventually was concluded with the debating of his people on those objects of the sky or whether it was a debate from the beginning and Allah knows best. However, in any case he landed on the right decision and the right way of looking at things and he landed on a very strong feeling of safety and trust in His Lord who he did not seee, but could always feel His presence.

Translation of the transliterated words:

Alshshamsa: the sun
bazighatan: apparent/ cracking the darkness/ penetrating the dark/ shining through
Note: the root is B-Z- Ghain and it means the begginning of appearance of an entity. It also is used for an entity that breaks through a barrier to appear and show itself. BAZIGHATAN in this context would then mean either appearing or cracking or penetrating the darkness of the night.

BAREEON means dissociated or not taking part/ not being approving and so on.

Falamma raa alqamara bazighan qala hatha rabbee falamma afala qala lain lam yahdinee rabbee laakoonanna mina alqawmi alddalleena

The Aya says:
So when he (Abraham) saw the moon shining through, he said this is my nurturing Lord, so when he (the moon) faded away he said: if my nurturing Lord does not guide me, then I will indeed be amongst the lost people.

My personal note:
The term B-Z-Ghain is describing an entity that cracks open it’s own path or barrier to make itself apparent and so on. So, the term for the moon being BAZIGH was translated as shining through because of it’s cracking through the darkness.

Again, here, Abraham is disappointed that the moon which was impressive before, disappeared and it’s effect disappeared with it. This, to Abraham is not a sign of a Lord because His Lord’s influence or effect never fades away and Abraham sensed and knew that.

Note: the root is R-Hamza-Y and it means viewing or seeing. RAA is an action that is completed. It means: the action of vision happened by the subject (third person singular.)

Falamma janna AAalayhi allaylu raa kawkaban qala hatha rabbee falamma afala qala la ohibbu alafileena

The aya says:
So when the night darkened upon him (Abraham) he saw a planet/ shining entity. He said this is my nurturing Lord, then when it faded, he said: I do not like the ones who fade.

My personal note:
This is a passage that talks about a spiritual discovery that Abraham was undergoing.

I translated the term AFALA as faded or faded away. The term carries with a little more than fading. It carries that the entity lost it’s effect and influence. So, it is not only disappearance that happened but also that it was not effective anymore. That is why the term AFALA was used rather than GHABA which carries the meaning of disappeared alone without necessary losing it's influence. This is because something can disappear but retain it’s influence, but this is not the case with this planet/ shining entity.

Translation of the transliterated words:
Falamma: so when
Janna: darkened
Note: the root is 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. JANNA is an action that is completed. It means: the action of becoming dark happened by the subject (third person singular).
Aaalayhi: upon him
Allaylu: the night
Note: ALLAYLI is derived from the root L-Y-L and it means night. ALLAYLU means the night.

Qala: He said/ communicated
Note: QALA is derived from the root Qaf-W-L and it means saying in any way possible. QALA is an action that is completed that is derived from the root. It means the action of saying happened by the subject (third person singular). This, in turn means: He said or responded or communicated.

Wakathalika nuree ibraheema malakoota alssamawati waalardi waliyakoona mina almooqineena

The Aya says:
And as such We show Abraham the dominion of the heavens and the earth and in order that he become amongst the serene (in the truth).

My personal note:
This is a beginning of a very interesting passage that will be discussed as we reach those coming Ayat.

I translated the term mooqineen as the serene people. This is because the word suggests the water that is calm, not having to flow any more because it reached it’s resting place and also not disturbed by currents, wind or storms. It is the image of the person who reached peace with his inner self and his belief. I chose the term serene for this and I hope it is correct.

Translation of the transliterated words:
Wakathalika: and as such
Nuree: We make see/ We make view/ We show
Note: the root is R-Hamza-Y and it means viewing or seeing. NUREE is an action that is being completed or will be completed. It means: the action of making the object (Ibraheem coming up) view or see is happening or will be happening by the subject (first person plural.)

Ibraheema: Abraham
Malakoota: dominion of

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.

waalardi: and the earth
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. WA is often translated as an addition (and), but inclusion probably covers the meaning a little better. ALARDI is derived from the root Hamza-R-Dhad and it means earth or land. ALARDI is the earth/ the land.

Waliyakoona: and in order that he be/ and in order that be become
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.

YAKOONA is derived from the root K-W-N and it means being. YAKOONA is an action that is being completed or will be completed that is derived from the root. It means: He be or he becomes.

Mina: from/ of/ amongst
Almooqineena: the ones with certainty/ the undisturbed/ in state of calmness /serenity
Note: the root is Y-Qaf-N and it means when the water stops moving as in arriving at the final destination of lake or sea and also the water that is not disturbed by wind or storm and so on. Conceptually, it is used for reaching certainty because of appropriate proofs because the mind then reaches it’s resting point and does not have to wonder any more for more answers. It is generally the opposite of suspicion or confusion. ALMOOQINEENA are the ones who reached the state of calmness and serenity in the truth.

Waith qala ibraheemu liabeehi azara atattakhithu asnaman alihatan innee araka waqawmaka fee dalalin mubeenin

The Aya says:
And as Abraham said to his father Azar: Do you take idols as entities worthy of worship?! I indeed see you and your people clearly lost/disoriented.

My personal note:
The term ASNAM is translated as idols. The term in Arabic is used for any two or three dimensional picture or sculpture that is then taken as a entity worthy of worship.

In this is the general skepticism in Islam against statues and pictures or paintings of humans or animals or any entity that may attain a special status of reverance in one way or another.

Translation of the transliterated words:

Note: QALA is derived from the root Qaf-W-L and it means saying in any way possible. QALA is an action that is completed that is derived from the root. It means the action of saying happened by the subject (third person singular).

This is coming in a question and exclamation at the same time.

Asnaman: idols/ statues/ pictures
Note: the root is Sad-N-M and it means any entity that has a two or three dimensional look or body and that is worshipped, whether it is picture or statue.
Alihatan: entities worthy of worship
Note: the root is Hamza-L-H and it means worthy of worship. ALLAH is the entity worthy of Worship and that is one of the names of God in Arabic and the most commonly used in Arabic by Muslim Arabs and non Muslim Arabs. ALIHATAN is plural of ILAH and ILAH means entity (singular) worthy of worship.

Innee: I indeed
Araka: I see you (singular)/ I view you
Note: ARAKA is derived from the root R-Hamza-Y and it means viewing or seeing. ARAKA is an action that is being completed or will be completed. It means: the action of vision of the object (KA= singular you) is happening or will be happening by the subject (first person singular.)

Waqawmaka: and your people
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. WA is often translated as an addition (and), but inclusion probably covers the meaning a little better. QAWMAKA is derived from the root Qaf-Y-M and it means standing or standing upright.

Fee: in
Dalalin: perdition/ being lost/ disorientation

Conceptually, it is used for any form of loosing the path or disorientation, whether it is the path to a location or to the truth, or to be correct spiritually and so on. The imagery is very strong since loosing the path in the desert can mean near certain death. DALALIN means perdition or being lost.

mubeenin: making clear/ clarifying/ self evident/ clearly evident
Note: the root is B-Y-N and it means in concrete between. The action of the verb is betweening. This betweening can mean clarifying because one can know better the difference between two things. It also can mean distancing because the betweening makes things become apart. MUBEEN is the one that makes between in a conceptual sense. In this context, DALALIN MEBEEN carries the meaning of the misguidance that is clearly evident

Wahuwa allathee khalaqa alssamawati waalarda bialhaqqi wayawma yaqoolu kun fayakoonu qawluhu alhaqqu walahu almulku yawma yunfakhu fee alssoori AAalimu alghaybi waalshshahadati wahuwa alhakeemu alkhabeeru

The Aya says:
And He is the one who created the heavens and the earth by/in/with the binding truth, and day when He says: be, it will immediately become. His saying is the binding truth and to him belongs the authority day when the horn is blown. Knower of the unperceived and the perceived and He is the wise, the well informed.

My personal note:

The statement of created the heavens and the earth by/in/with the binding truth/right. The term HAQQ was preceded by the BI which can carry the meaning of with/in/by and all of them together. So, the action of creating by Allah happened in truth and with truth and by truthfulness. There is truthfulness in all the aspects of that creation.

KUN FAYAKOON is often translated as be and it is or be and it will be. The term YAKOON carries an action that is ongoing or will happen in the future. It is the action of being. However, it is preceded by the FA which denotes an immediate sequence following the action that happened before. So, when the order of KUN= be comes, it will immediately be followed by the action of yakoon= being or basically becoming an entity immediately.

Translation of the translterated words:
Wahuwa: and He
Allathee: who/ the one who
Khalaqa: He created/ shaped
Note: the root is KH-L-Qaf and it means creating and creation.

Alssamawati: the aboves / the heavens/ the beyond the earth

alghaybi: the unperceived
Note: ALGHAYBA is derived from the root GH-Y-B and it means unperceived in general.

This is then conceptually taken to any thing that disappears or becomes as if it disappeared in the forest. ALGHAYBI here means the unperceived.
Waalshshahadati: and the perceived/ the witnessed
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.

Waan aqeemoo alssalata waittaqoohu wahuwa allathee ilayhi tuhsharoona

The Aya says:
Including that you (plural) establish and maintain the prayer, and act consciously of Him, and He is the one towards whom you will be gathered.

My personal note:
The Aya completes the previous one. It points out that establishing and maintaining prayer is inseparable part of being Muslim as well as acting while conscious of Allah.

In a sense that action in consciousness of Allah is a very important component that leads us to Allah and hopefully strengthens our connection to Him.

Trasnlation of the transliterated words:
Waan: and that/ and to/ including that/ including to
aqeemoo : you (plural)make stand/ make upright/ establish and maintain
Note: AQEEMOO is derived from the root Qaf-W-M and it means standing upright or standing. The upright can be in all planes of position and for a horizontal dimension it means straight. AQEEMOO is an order or a request addressed to a group. In this context, it means: you (plural) establish and maintain.

Note: the root is Sad-L-Y and it means two main things in concrete. One is the lower back area and this one is used for one who is racing towards a goal and the head is close to the lower back of the one who is ahead. It is also used in concrete to mean heat and warmth and fire. The word is used for prayer as well. In this context, ALSSALATA is the ritual prayer.
waittaqoohu: and act consciously of Him
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. WA is often translated as an addition (and), but inclusion probably covers the meaning a little better ITTAQOO is derived from the root W-Qaf-W and it means guarding or protecting.

Salaam all,

Qul anadAAoo min dooni Allahi ma la yanfaAAuna wala yadurruna wanuraddu AAala aAAqabina baAAda ith hadana Allahu kaallathee istahwathu alshshayateenu fee alardi hayrana lahu ashabun yadAAoonahu ila alhuda itina qul inna huda Allahi huwa alhuda waomirna linuslima lirabbi alAAalameena

The Aya says:
Say (O Muhammad): do we call upon, short of Allah, what does not benefit us nor harm us, and regress backwards after that Allah had guided us?! Like the one who was lured by the devils in the land, confused. He has companions calling him towards the guidance, come to us. Say (O Muhammad), indeed the guidance is Allah’s guidance and we were commadned to be committed to the Nurturing Lord of all.

My personal note:
There is a new word in this passage and that is HAYRAN which I translated here as confused. The concrete word is the running water that comes to a block and so the water is raging and moving in every direction but trapped and not moving forward. The term is then covering confusion, indecision and losing the forward path.

The picture that is painted is of one who was lured out of path by the Shayateen, and therefore he lost his way back to the path. He may hear a call to the path but is still being sucked in by the distractions that led him away. I did translated the word SHAYATEEN as devils, but the arabic meaning of Shayateen extends the definition of devil to any entity, human or non human that is moving the person away from Allah’s path.

NURADDU is derived from the root R-D-D and it means: making an entity return to a point of beginning.

The Aya says:
And leave those who took their religion/obligation/law play and distraction and this life tricked them. And remind by him (the message), that a self gets repulsed by what she earned. She has no guardian nor intercessor short of Allah, and if she offers to trade every exchange, it will not be taken from her. Those who were repulsed by what they earned. They have drink from heat, and painfull suffering by what they used to reject.

My personal note

There is a new term here derived from the root W-TH-R and it means the small pieces of meat in the stew but also the foreskin that is removed and let go in circumcision. Conceptually, it is used for letting go. In here, it is ordering the prophet to basically not dwell on those who are insistent on rejecting the message and on taking their religion as play and distraction.

I did translated the word DEEN as religion/obligation/law and that is because that word, which is usually translated as religion encompasses a sense of obligation as well as abidance by law and accountability all in the same word. I believe that this is an important distinction to be made between the english word religion which seems to cover belief and ritual and the Arabic word DEEN which covers that as well as law and sense of obligation as well as accountability.
