6:130

Salaam all,

6:130 Ya maAAshara aljinni waalinsi alam yatikum rusulun minkum yaqussoona AAalaykum ayatee wayunthiroonakum liqaa yawmikum hatha qaloo shahidna AAala anfusina wagharrathumu alhayatu alddunya washahidoo AAala anfusihim annahum kanoo kafireena

The Aya says: O multitude of Jinn and Humans, did not envoys from amongst you come to you? Narrating upon you My signs, and warning you of the meeting of this day of yours. They responded we testified against our selves. And this life tricked them, and they testified against themselves that they were rejectors.

My personal note: The Aya is telling us about the dialogue that will occurr between God and the rejectors on the day of Judgment. It reminds them of the messengers and envoys that came to them and then the rejectors will be witnesses against their own selves. May Allah protect us from being amongst those and open our hearts to hear and accept and work with the words of the true messengers of God.

Translation of the transliterated words: 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 Waalinsi: and the humans 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.
