Salaam all,

6:128 Wayawma yahshuruhum jameeAAan ya maAAshara aljinni qadi istakthartum mina alinsi waqala awliyaohum mina alinsi rabbana istamtaAAa baAAduna bibaAAdin wabalaghna ajalana allathee ajjalta lana qala alnnaru mathwakum khalideena feeha illa ma shaa Allahu inna rabbaka hakeemun Aaaleemun

The Aya says: And day when we gather them all. O multitude of Jinn, you indeed sought many of the humans, while their proteges of the humans said: O our nurturing Lord, some of us fulfilled their aims by some, and we reached our allotted endtime that you allotted for us. He (Allah) responded: The Hell is your place of stay, staying in it, except what Allah willed. Indeed, your (singular) nurturing Lord is wise, knowing.

My personal note: The Aya is bringing to our attention a dialogue between the Jinns and the humans and their Lord on the day of judgment. It brings about that those who are punished are staying in Hell unless they were included in the exception. In here, the scholars may include any one in the exception except the person who dies upon polytheism.

The Aya ends with saying that Allah is wise, knowing. In Arabic when two adjectives come one after the other, this carries the connotation that the first adjective is informed and also guided by the following adjective. So, in here, the wisdom of God is never separated from His knowledge.

Translation of the transliterated words: Wayawma: and day of/ and day when 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. YAWMA is derived from the root Y-W-M and it means day. YAWMA means the day of or day when. yahshuruhum: He gathers them Note: the root is Ha-SH-R and it means gathering. One concrete meaning of the word is small creatures of the land as the insects. The relationship is the fact that they gather in big numbers in one place as to eat and so forth. YAHSHURUHUM is an action that is being completed or will be completed. It means: the action of gathering the object (HUM= them) in one place is going to be made to happen by an the subject (third person singular pointing to Allah).

jameeAAan: altogether/ all/collectively Note: the root is J-M-Ain and it means gather the different parts together or putting things together. JAMeeAAaN means together or all. The context suggests all of it. ya maAAshara: O gathering of/ o multitude of Note: YA is for calling. MaAASHARA is derived from the root Ain-SH-R and it means ten. This is then conceptually taken to mean many other things including family or lots of contact with someone as in sharing the life. This context suggests this use of the word. MaAASHAR means gathering or grouping or multitude and so on. Aljinni: the Jinn/ the hidden entities/ the genies Note: the root is root J-N-N and it means hidden or hiding. It is therefore used to mean darkness because it hides as well as garden because gardens can be hidden or because it has less light than the place out in the sun for the Arabs of the desert. ALJINN are the hidden entities or what one calls Genies

Qadi: indeed Istakthartum: you sought many/ you sought and reached many/ reached a lot Note: the root is K-TH-R and it means many or numerous in all the planes of thought.

awliyaohum : their guardians/ protégés/ guardians and protégés/ directors/ their allies Note: the root is W-L-Y and it means direction or following direction with some guarantee. It comes close to guardianship. AWLIYAO is either the one who is a guardian or the one who receives guardianship of another or both. In this context, guardian and protégé or director apply. Therefore I used both. HIM means them and so AWLIYAOHUM takes the meaning of their proteges vs guardians and allies. Mina: of/ from Alinsi: the humans Note: ALINSI is derived from the root Hamza-N-S and it means socializing. ALINS are the society/the people and in this context it points to humans.

KUM is plural you Khalideena: Staying unchanged Note: the root is KH-L-D and it means something that stays the same.
