10:14
ثُمَّ جَعَلْنَاكُمْ خَلاَئِفَ فِي
الأَرْضِ مِن بَعْدِهِم لِنَنظُرَ كَيْفَ تَعْمَلُونَ
Thumma
jaAAalnakum khalaifa fee alardi min baAAdihim linanthura
kayfa taAAmaloona
The Aya
says:
Then We
designated you (plural) inheritors of the land after them in order to see how
you do/act.
My
personal note:
The Aya
mentions that after the part groups were gone, the land was inherited by us to
see how we act. Basically to see if we take responsibility of good management
of the earth or not
Translation
of the transliterated words:
Thumma:
then (could be short or long
period of time)
jaAAalnakum:
We made you/ We designated
you
Note:
JaAAaLNA is derived from the root J-Ain-L and it means making, forming or
transforming something that already exists or that has not existed yet. It can also mean providing an attribute or
designation to an entity. Conceptually, it takes the meaning of transformation/
designation more often than formation. JaAAaLNA is an action that is completed.
It means: the action of forming or transforming/ designating the object (KUM=
lural you) by the subject (first person plural).
Khalaifa:
inheritors/ the ones that
come after
Note:
KHALAIF is derived from the root KH-L-F and it means behind in time or place or
any other plane of thought. For time, it takes the meaning of what happens
after or the future. KHALAIF are the ones that come after and assume control of.
Fee: in
Alardi:
the land
Note: ALARDI is derived from the root
Hamza-R-Dhad and it means earth or land.
ALARDI is the earth/ the land.
Min: from
baAAdihim:
after them
Note: the root is B-Ain-D and it means
further in time or space. In space it means farther in distance and in time, it
means after. BaAADI here means: after. HIM means
them
Linanthura:
in order to see/ in order to
see for fact
Note:
LI means to or in order to. NANTHURA is
derived from the root N-THa-R and it means seeing/observing/watching with one side
of the meaning stronger than the others according to the situation. At times it
means giving reprieve or giving time to correct things and that stems from the
observing/watching as if it is time of observation/watching or waiting or given
time. NANTHURA is an action that is being completed or will be completed. It
means: the action of watching/ observing/ seeing is happening or will be
happening by the subject (first person plural).
Kayfa: how/ what
taAAmaloona: you (plural) do
Note:
the root is Ain-M-L
and it means doing or work. TaAAMALOON is an action that is being completed or
will be completed. It means: the action
of doing or is happening or will be happening by the subject (second person
plural).
