9:88
لَـكِنِ الرَّسُولُ وَالَّذِينَ آمَنُواْ مَعَهُ جَاهَدُواْ بِأَمْوَالِهِمْ وَأَنفُسِهِمْ وَأُوْلَـئِكَ لَهُمُ الْخَيْرَاتُ وَأُوْلَـئِكَ هُمُ الْمُفْلِحُونَ
Lakini alrrasoolu waallatheena amanoo maAAahu jahadoo biamwalihim waanfusihim waolaika lahumu alkhayratu waolaika humu almuflihoona
However, the messenger and those who have faith with him made effort through their money and their own selves. And to them belong the good things, and those are the bearers of success.
The Aya reminds us that making the effort opposite adversity in Allah’s path and according to the teachings of His messenger is the path to success, not only to the people who do it, but to all.
Lakini: but instead, however
alrrasoolu: the messenger/ the envoy
Note: ALRRASOOLU is derived from the root R-S-L and it means to envoy someone or a group of people or animals. The concrete word is RASL and it means a group of people or animals that were sent by their owners or senders. RUSULUN means messengers of and is the plural of RASOOL who is the one that is sent and is used to mean the messenger because he was sent by the sender to the receiver. ALRRASOOL means the messenger or the envoy.
Waallatheena: and those who
Amanoo: made themselves safe/ caused safety/ caused trust/ are faithfull
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 but it can also extend to making safety and trust situation for others as well.
maAAahu: with him
Jahadoo: made effort in the face of resistance/ strived in the face of odds
Note: JAHADOO is derived from the root J-H-D and it means exerting effort. JAHADOO is the third person plural past tense of a verb that is derived from the root. This is an interactive verb and it means they exert effort opposite resistance. This is a wide meaning and one of them may include fighting. However the resistance can come in all forms including psychological and personal.
Biamwalihim: by their money/ by their belongings
Note: BI signifies an attachment or close linkage between what is before and what is after it. In a Verbal sentence it can mean attachment to the action or to the subject as it does the action. This attachment can then signify many things according to the verb and to the sentence and so on. AMWAL is derived from the root M-W-L and it means what a person owns of gold and silver. This is used to mean anything owned or just money. AMWALI means moneys of. KUM means plural you.
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. ANFUSI is derived from the root N-F-S and it means to breath but is extended to mean self since the self breathes and that defines her existance. ANFUSI is a noun that is derived from this root and it means Selves of. HIM means them.
Waolaika: and those
Lahumu: to them belongs/ they deserve/ they will receive
alkhayratu: the good things/ the choices
Note: the root is KH-Y-R and it means choice. It is also understood as good or as better, because one would chose the good over the bad. ALKHAYRATU means: the good things or the things that are choices.
Waolaika: and those
Humu: they
Almuflihoona: the successful/ the success bearing
Note: the root is F-L-Ha and it means to plow the land. This is also considered as a cause for one to have the better harvest. MUFLIHOON are the ones who succeed or cause success to themselves and others.
