Salaam all,
This is 3:6
هُوَ الَّذِي يُصَوِّرُكُمْ فِي الأَرْحَامِ كَيْفَ يَشَاء لاَ إِلَـهَ إِلاَّ هُوَ الْعَزِيزُ الْحَكِيمُ
Huwa allathee yusawwirukum fee alarhami kayfa yashao la ilaha illa huwa alAAazeezu alhakeemu
The Aya says:
He (is) the one who shapes you (plural) in the wombs as HE entities. No God but HE. The strong who defeats pressure, the wise.
My personal note:
It continues the theme of the previous Aya. It does mention that God is the one that shapes us in our distinguishing features while we are in our mother’s wombs. It also reminds us of God’s strength that can withstand all pressure and of His wisdom.
Translation of the transliterated words:
Huwa: HE
Allathee: The one who
Yusawwirukum: makes your distinguishing features/shapes/looks
Note: The root is Sad-W-R and it means distinguishing features, shaping, or representation of the shape or distinguishing feature. It can be used for a picture or a statue or just the look of the person or animal. I chose distinguishing feature as my means to share the concept of this word. YUSAWWIRU is an action that is being completed or will be completed. It means: the action of making distinguishing features is happening or will be happening by the subject (third person singular pointing to HUWA which means HE and is pointing to God) to the object KUM which means a plural you.
Fee: in
Alarhami: the wombs
Note: the root is R-Ha-M and it means womb. ALARHAM means the wombs. This is the word that is used to mean mercy or the womb like treatment of the creation.
Kayfa: however
Yashao: HE entities
Note: the root is SH-Y-Hamza and it means entity for noun and to entity for the action. This means making a non entity entity, which also means making what was impossible possible, or what was non existent, existent or what was un-allowed allowed, and so forth. YASHAO is the third person singular present or future action that is related to the root. It means that HE (ALLAH) is the one that is making the entity happen. The entity in here is the making of our distinguishing features/shapes/looks.
La: No
Ilaha: God
Illa: But
Huwa: HE
alAAazeezu: the strong who defeats pressure
Note: the root is Ain-Z-Z and it means the hard earth that will not yield under the rain and therefore, will make the rain water flow rather than seep. It is used for entities that are strong and defeat pressure. ALAAaZEEZU means: The strong who defeats pressure.
Alhakeemu: The wise/ the steerer
Note: The root is Ha-K-M and it means the steer that steers the animal. This word is used for ruling and judging as well as other meanings of steering. The best steerer is the one that uses the best tools to steer and that is the Arabic definition of wisdom. ALHAKEEMU means: The wise/ the steerer.
Salaam all and have a great day
Hussein
