7:75

Salaam all,

Qala almalao allatheena istakbaroo min qawmihi lillatheena istudAAifoo liman amana minhum ataAAlamoona anna salihan mursalun min rabbihi qaloo inna bima orsila bihi muminoona

The aya says:
The elite who acted arrogantly amongst his people said to those who attained faith amongst the weak: Do you actually know that Saleh is envoyed from his Nurturing Lord? They responded: We are in what he was sent with trusting.

My personal note:
The elite and the arrogant wanted to challenge the weak who are faithful asking them if they know by facts or observation or whatever. The response was much more powerful and that they have something stronger and that is faith and safety and trust in what he came with.

In this is something important and that is if you have enough evidence to have trust and safety and so on, then you do not necessarily need other methods of verification as in observation and so on. This is as long as your method of attaning safety and faith is clean and unadulterated by wrong bias and desire and so on. This takes lots of effort of cleansing and deep honest understanding of oneself.

Translation of the transliterated words:
Qala: He said/ communicated/ responded
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 pointing to ALMALAU). This, in turn means: He said or responded or communicated.
Almalao: the big group/ the leaders/ the elite

Istakbaroo: acted arrogantly/acted disdainly

istudAAifoo: taken as weak/ taken as powerless
Note: the root is Dhad-Ain-F and it means in concrete, when the thing is folded upon itself, therefore giving two potential meanings for the derivatives, one is weakness, since the weak gets folded and the other is equal or multiplied since the folding of one object becomes two. In this context it is pointing to weakness/ powerlessnes. ISTUDAAiFOO is an action that is completed.

So, it ends up meaning: made himself/ themseves safe .
