وَإِذْ قَالُواْ اللَّهُمَّ إِن كَانَ هَـذَا هُوَ الْحَقَّ مِنْ عِندِكَ فَأَمْطِرْ عَلَيْنَا حِجَارَةً مِّنَ السَّمَاء أَوِ ائْتِنَا بِعَذَابٍ أَلِيمٍ

Waith qaloo allahumma in kana hatha huwa alhaqqa min AAindika faamtir AAalayna hijaratan mina alssamai awi itina biAAathabin aleemin

The Aya says:
And as they said: “Oh Allah if this is the truth from you then rain down on us rocks/ stones from the sky or bring us painful suffering”

My personal note:
Here they continue with the challenges to the message by asking what they cannot deal with once it comes. It points to their arrogance mixed with their ignorance.

Translation of the transliterated words:
Waith: and as
Qaloo: they said/ they communicated
Note: QALOO is derived from the root Qaf-W-L and it means saying in any way possible. QALOO is an action that is completed that is derived from the root. It means the action of saying happened by the subject (third person plural). This, in turn means: They said/ communicated.
Allahumma: O Allah
In: if
Kana: was/ happened to be
Note: the root is K-W-N and it means being. KANA is an action that is completed that is derived from the root. It means: the action of being happened by the subject (third personal singular or plural). This in turn means: He/ they was or He/ they happened to be
Hatha: this
Huwa: he/ it
Alhaqqa: the truth/ the binding truth
Note: ALHAQQA is derived from the root Ha-Qaf-Qaf and it means binding right where right means correct as well s what is due to one person (rights and obligations). ALHAQQ is binding right or binding truth or just right as the context suggests here.
Min: from
AAindika: at yours
Faamtir: then rain/ then drop
Note: FA means then or therefore or so. AMTIR is derived from the root M-TTA- R and it means rain and it can be extended to anything that comes down from the sky. AMTIR is an a request or order addressing a singular. It means: make rain fall or drop.

AAalayna: upon us
Hijaratan: stones/ rocks
Note: Hajar means stone or rock. The root is HA-J-R and it means to prevent/to make barrier, probably because stones make a good barrier. Derivatives of the root can also mean room/house since the house is the rock of the person (The place that is protected the most or the place that needs to be protected the most). HIJARATAN means the rocks or stones.

Mina: from
Alssamai: the sky
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. ALSSAMAI is the above or what is above, that is the sky or the heaven or any entity from the atmosphere to beyond that

Awi: or
Itina: come to us/ bring us
Note: ITINA 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. ITINA is an order or a request addressed to a singular. It means: bring us or or come to us.

biAAathabin: suffering/ with suffering
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. In here it gives an object to an Arabic verb that does not usually have an object (The verb ITINA). AAaTHAB is derived from the root Ain-TH-B and it means an easy to swallow food or drink. AAaTHAB is what makes one not take an easy to swallow food or drink. That is suffering.

aleemin: painful
Note: the root is Hamza-L-M and it means pain. ALEEMIN means painful.

Waitha tutla AAalayhim ayatuna qaloo qad samiAAna law nashao laqulna mithla hatha in hatha illa asateeru alawwaleena

The Aya says:
And when our signs are recited upon them they said: “We heard. Had we willed we would have said similar to it. This is nothing but legends of the ancients.”

My personal note:
The Aya brings about a potential answer of many people who reject the message and it still sounds the same to this day.

Translation of the transliterated words:
Waitha: and when/ and if and when
Tutla: are recited/ are followed closely
Note: the root is T-L-W and it means following closely. The concrete word that is derived from the root is the baby animal after it had been weaned from the breast and who follows his mother everywhere closely. The word means the following closely and also reciting, because that involves following each word with another. TUTLA is an action that is happening or will be happening. It means: the action of reciting or following closely the object (AYATUNA= our signs) is happening or will be happening by an undeclared subject.

Alawwaleena: the earlier ones/ the first ones/ the ancient ones
Note: AWWAL is derived from the root Hamza-W-L and it means ultimate as a concept and takes different shapes and specific meanings according to the situation including first and so on.

وَإِذْ يَمْكُرُ بِكَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ لِيُثْبِتُوكَ أَوْ يَقْتُلُوكَ أَوْ يُخْرِجُوكَ وَيَمْكُرُونَ وَيَمْكُرُ اللّهُ وَاللّهُ خَيْرُ الْمَاكِرِينَ

Waith yamkuru bika allatheena kafaroo liyuthbitooka aw yaqtulooka aw yukhrijooka wayamkuroona wayamkuru Allahu waAllahu khayru almakireena

The Aya says:
And as they scheme against you (singular) those who rejected in order that they pin you down or kill you or kick you out. And they scheme, while Allah plans and Allah is the best of planners.

My personal note:
The term yuthbitooka is often used in a positive sense to mean to make you well entrenched. However, here within this context, it carries the limiting of movement and maneuverability and therefore a negative connotation very much like when someone is wrestling and then pinned down in a position but the opponent.

The Aya Also also brings about that Allah will always counter the negative plan of the rejecters against His people and message with His own far superior plan of the bigger picture. In a sense He reassures those who follow his path that they are safe within a much bigger plan that is positive for the bigger issues at hand.

The Aya says:
O you who attained faith if you act consciously of Allah then He will make for you a differentiator and atones for you your sins and protectively cover you. And Allah is the one with the great favor.

My personal note:
The Aya brings about a very important theme and that is if we work and act while conscious of Allah then Allah will help us get guided to the right decisions and this will make us move in greater consciousness of Allah and that in turn will give us more insight and wisdom in making decision in a process that is self-propagating and self-sustaining and that ends in the faithful the strongest possible relationship with Allah and that is the point about Iman. May Allah increase our Iman and help us in all those steps that bring us closer to Him always.

The Aya says:
And be Aware that your belongings and your children are but a big test and that there are great rewards at Allah’s

My person note:
It tells us to beware get lost in the things that we like in this life to forget our more important target and that is our relationship with Allah. That is why our money and children can be a test if they distract us from Allah.

Ya ayyuha allatheena amanoo la takhoonoo Allaha waalrrasoola watakhoonoo amanatikum waantum taAAlamoona

Oh you who attained faith do not betray Allah and the messenger and do not betray your safe keeps while you know.

My personal note:
In this is a very important message that the believers have to remain non treacherous to Allah nor to the messenger nor to any other person that entrusted them with something. In a sense maintaining the religion as it should be is a safe keep but we are also by this Aya obligated to safe keep everything else that we promised to keep safe.

وَاذْكُرُواْ إِذْ أَنتُمْ قَلِيلٌ مُّسْتَضْعَفُونَ فِي الأَرْضِ تَخَافُونَ أَن يَتَخَطَّفَكُمُ النَّاسُ فَآوَاكُمْ وَأَيَّدَكُم بِنَصْرِهِ وَرَزَقَكُم مِّنَ الطَّيِّبَاتِ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَشْكُرُونَ

Waothkuroo ith antum qaleelun mustadAAafoona fee alardi takhafoona an yatakhattafakumu alnnasu faawakum waayyadakum binasrihi warazaqakum mina alttayyibati laAAallakum tashkuroona

The Aya says:
And remember you (plural) were few, weak in the land fearing that the people will snatch you, So He gave you shelter and gave you a hand with His help and provided you of the good things, perhaps you will be thankful.

My personal note:
The Aya explains to the muslims the help and aid that Allah had provided them and it compares their situation at that time from when they started when they were few and weak and vulnerable. We always have to be thankful for the blessings of Allah.

Translation of the transliterated words:
Waothkuroo: and mention and remember
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.

OTHKUROO is derived from the root TH-K-R and it means mention and remember, at the same time. The concrete word is something running on the tongue as if speaking it. Another concrete word is male or the male organ. The relationship between the two is not very clear and they can be different words that share the sound but have different root. It could be that the male is considered the active organ and that memory is an active process, but that is only a theory. OTHKUROO is a demand or request addressing a group. It means: mention and remember at the same time.
Ith: as
Antum: you (plural)

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 often corresponds with “and/ addition” but the more encompassing meaning is in inclusion one in another or all in a bigger picture or sentence. RAZAQAKUM is derived from the root R-Z-Qaf and it means provision and conceptually, it covers any form of providing especially for needs. RAZAQA is an action that is completed. It means: the action of providing the object (Kum=plural you) happened by the subject (third person singular pointing to Allah)

وَاتَّقُواْ فِتْنَةً لاَّ تُصِيبَنَّ الَّذِينَ ظَلَمُواْ مِنكُمْ خَآصَّةً وَاعْلَمُواْ أَنَّ اللّهَ شَدِيدُ الْعِقَابِ
Waittaqoo fitnatan la tuseebanna allatheena thalamoo minkum khassatan waiAAlamoo anna Allaha shadeedu alAAiqabi

The Aya says:
And protect yourselves against a trial that will not hit the ones who are unjust amongst you alone. And be aware that Allah is severe in the punishment.

My personal note:
This is a message that a society has a responsibility to limit the injustice within it because God’s punishment for injustice will not be limited for the unjust but it will touch as well those who tolerated it and did not raise their voice against it. Therefore it is a societal obligation to try to stem injustice within our roles and abilities in our societies.

Translation of the transliterated words:
Waittaqoo: and beware/ and be conscious of/ and act consciously of
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. Since the best way to guard is through consciousness and action according to consciousness. ITTAQOO is an order or a request addressed to a group. It means: be mindful/ act while conscious or act mindfully.

Fitnatan: a test/ a severe test/ a trial
Note: the root is F-T-N and it means in concrete form, the melting of Gold or silver in order to know the pure from the impure or the true from the fake. Therefore, in abstract, the word suggests an extreme test with hardship in it, or a burn with fire or even taking someone’s eyes with the glitter of the false Gold and silver. Here, it means the severe test or trial. FITNATAN means testing and trialing.

la tuseebanna: does not touch/ will not touch/ will not hit
Note: LA is for negation of what comes next. TUSEEBANNA is derived from the root Sad-W-B and it means in one of the concrete usages the rain falling on a place. This word is then used to mean hitting the target correctly or being correct, because the rain is correct in hitting it’s target. TUSIBANNA is an action that is being completed or will be completed. It means: the action targeting and hitting the object (ALLATHEENA= those who) is happening or will be happening by the subject (first person singular).

Allatheena: those who
Thalamoo: were unjust/ displaced things
Note: THALAMOO is derived from the root 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 or injustice since injustice is displacing right from wrong and a decision made in darkness. THALAMOO is an action that is completed. It means: the action of acting unjustly or transgressing happened by the subject (third person plural)
Minkum: amongst you
Khassatan: particularly/ only
Note: the root is KH-Sad-Sad and it carries the meaning of the very small opening. This conceptually carries the meaning of only one thing or specific thing that goes through or specific and so on. KHASSATAN means only/ particularly/ specifically.
waiAAlamoo: and know (plural)/ know for fact/ Be aware
Note: WA here is to resume a sentence. iAALAMOO is derived from the root Ain-L-M and it means knowing/knowledge or knowledge of facts. iAALAMOO is an order or a request addressed to a group. It means: know or know for fact.

Anna: that
Allaha: Allah
Shadeedu: severe
Note: The root is SH-D-D and it means tightening the rope for the action and tight for the description. Conceptually, The “tight” can also extend the meaning to hard and strong and so forth. SHADEEDU means tight or hard or severe.
alAAiqabi: the punishment/ the consequence
Note: the root is Ain-Qaf-B and it means back of foot. This is the concrete meaning and it is used to mean end, back or behind including the consequence of a person’s action and it can also mean obstacle. ALAAiQABI here is the consequence and in this context, it is pointing to punishment as a consequence of our bad actions.
