And mention/ remember (singular) your nurturing Lord in yourself pleasdingly and fearing and short of loud speech in the beginnings of the day and the ends of the day, and do not be amongst the ones who do not pay attention.
The Aya gives an order to a singular and that is understood as the prophet Muhammad upon him be peace but it is also addressing each one of us singularly as well.
The fearing component can cover two fears:
1- Fearing anything and therefore Allah helps you with the fear in giving you peace because the Qur’an also says “ Indeed by remembering Allah the hearts reach peace”
2- Fearing Allah and in here it should be within the context of Loving Him and fearing Him and having hope in His Grace at the same time but should never be fear alone.
The new word in the Aya is ASAL which I translated as the ends of the day because the word is derived from the root ASL which means the lowest of the entity and at the end of the day the sun is at low level in the sky. In other contexts that root means the root of the tree and the basement of the house or the foundation of the house. In terms of ideas and opinions the ASL the basis on which one builds their opinions.
Waothkur: and mention/ and remember
Note: WA here is to start a new statement with an and. OTHKUR 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. OTHKUR is a demand or request addressing an individual. It means: mention and remember at the same time.
rabbaka: your (singular) nurturing Lord
Note: RABBAKA is derived from the root R-B-B and it means nurturing and Lordship as two components of the meaning that can be present together or one at a time according to the context of the sentence. RABBA is nurturing Lord of. KA means singular you.
Fee: in
Nafsika: yourself
Note: the root N-F-S and it means breath. NAFSI means a breath, but it also means a self, because the self breathes. KA means yours.
the root is Dhad-R-Ain and it carries in the concrete the feeling of weakness and awareness of weakness and need. One concrete meaning is the breast feeding infant and so he is pleading and is in great need for the milk. Also, the fact that the breast milk will provide food that is only adequate to the very young and therefore not sufficient. Conceptually, it is used for people who know their great need and are asking with humility and with pleading. It is also conceptually used for situation where the need is great and the supply is meager. TADARRuAAN means pleading.
Wakheefatan: and fearingly/ and fearing
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 often corresponds with “and/ addition” but the more encompassing meaning is in inclusion one in another or all in a bigger picture or sentence.
