وَمِنَ الأَعْرَابِ مَن يُؤْمِنُ بِاللّهِ وَالْيَوْمِ الآخِرِ وَيَتَّخِذُ مَا يُنفِقُ قُرُبَاتٍ عِندَ اللّهِ وَصَلَوَاتِ الرَّسُولِ أَلا إِنَّهَا قُرْبَةٌ لَّهُمْ سَيُدْخِلُهُمُ اللّهُ فِي رَحْمَتِهِ إِنَّ اللّهَ غَفُورٌ رَّحِيمٌ
Wamina alaAArabi man yuminu biAllahi waalyawmi alakhiri wayattakhithu ma yunfiqu qurubatin AAinda Allahi wasalawati alrrasooli ala innaha qurbatun lahum sayudkhiluhumu Allahu fee rahmatihi inna Allaha ghafoorun raheemun
The Aya says:
And among the nomadic Arabs those who have faith in Allah and the day of Judgement and considers what he spends as means towards affinity to Allah, and the messengers prayers. It is an affinity for them. Allah will enter them in His mercy/Grace. Indeed, Allah is protectively covering/ forgiving, merciful/Graceful.
My personal note:
This Aya contrasts the group mentioned first with this group who are of the same background but have better attitudes towards their acts of charity. They look at them as means to get them closer to Allah and also it makes them the recipients of prayers and blessings on their behalf from the prophet upon him be peace.
It is a message for us to look at charity not as a burden, but as a blessing. Charity is indeed the best investment we should aim for.
Translation of the transliterated words:
Wamina: and of/ from
alaAArabi : the nomadic Arabs
Note: the root is r-jB and it is the name of the Arabs and they are defined as the people whose mother tongue is Arabic or who lived and assimilated in the Arab lands. ALaAARAB are the nomadic arabs.
Man: who
yuminu : has faith
Note: YUMINU is derived from the root Hamza-M-N and it means safety. Conceptually, it can also be extended to trust as well, because we feel safe in the entity we trust. YUMINU is an action that is being completed or will be completed. It means: the action of making oneself safe is happening or will be happening by the subject (third person singular).
biAllahi: by Allah/ in Allah
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. ALLAH is Allah
Waalyawmi: and the day 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 often corresponds with “and/ addition” but the more encompassing meaning. ALYAWMI is derived from the root Y-W-M and it means day. ALYAWMI means the day of.

It means: the action of taking the object (MA Yunfiqu= what he spends) is happening or will be happening by the subject (third person singular).
Ma: what
Yunfiqu: He spends
Note: Yunfiqu is a derivative of the word N-F-Qaf. To explain it I use another derivative NAFAQ which means Tunnel. The tunnel is connection underground from one place to another. Therefore the essence of the word Tunnel is to “let Good/Useful things go to others under cover”. YUNFIQUis an action that is completed or will be completed. It means: the action of spending is happening or will be happening by the subject (third person singular)
Qurubatin: Affinities/ means of getting closer

Wamina alaAArabi man yattakhithu ma yunfiqu maghraman wayatarabbasu bikumu alddawaira AAalayhim dairatu alssawi waAllahu sameeAAun AAaleemun
The Aya says:
And amongst the nomadic Arabs who considers what he spends as a binding burden and they sit in watch that bad cycles hit you (plural). Upon them is the bad cycle and Allah is listening, knowing.
My personal note:
The Term MAGHRAM has in it the meaning of something that is sticky and binding to the person and this can be good or bad. In this context they look at it as a binding burden. This means that they feel that they are paying for charity out of obligation but if left to their own they would not have done it.
Translation of the transliterated words:
Wamina: and of/ and among
alaAArabi : the nomadic Arabs
Note: the root is r-jB and it is the name of the Arabs and they are defined as the people whose mother tongue is Arabic or who lived and assimilated in the Arab lands. ALaAARAB are the nomadic arabs.

It means: the action of spending is happening or will be happening by the subject (third person singular)
Maghraman: a burden/ a binding burden
Note: the root is Ghain-R-M and it means something that is very bound to another and conceptually can be associated with strong love, debt and guilt and anything that sticks to the person and would not let go. Here, in this context, it points to people bound by debt or any obligation or situation that is crippling and they are unable to get out of it on their own. MAGHRAMAN is a binding burden or a sticky obligation.
Wayatarabbasu: and they wait/ and they watch/ and they track/ anticipating
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.

This word then means different things according to the plane of thought that is being talked about. ASSAWI means the bad or the ugly.
waAllahu: and Allah/ while Allah
sameeAAun: listening/ hearing
Note: The root is S-M-Ain and and it means hearing or hearing and understanding or knowing and retaining at the same time. SAMeeAAuN is the one with great hearing or great understanding or more likely both at the same time. I used the term listening because it carries both meanings.

الأَعْرَابُ أَشَدُّ كُفْرًا وَنِفَاقًا وَأَجْدَرُ أَلاَّ يَعْلَمُواْ حُدُودَ مَا أَنزَلَ اللّهُ عَلَى رَسُولِهِ وَاللّهُ عَلِيمٌ حَكِيمٌ
AlaAArabu ashaddu kufran wanifaqan waajdaru alla yaAAlamoo hudooda ma anzala Allahu AAala rasoolihi waAllahu AAaleemun hakeemun
The Aya says:
The nomadic Arabs are more extreme in rejection including implicitly and more fitting to be ignorant the boundaries of what Allah had sent down to His messenger. And Allah is knowing, wise.
My personal note:
The Aya talks about the nomadic Arabs that lived in the outskirts of Medina. The Aya gives a general but not absolute picture about them. One particular feature is ignorance of the intricacies of what was sent down. This ignorance can be due to not receiving the whole picture and it also could be due to solely depending on their knowledge of the language but not paying attention to the wisdom being imparted on them by the prophet upon him be peace.
Historically, there was a group called Khawarej and that group caused lots of damage because of dependence on the text alone with the accessing the wisdom of the Prophet or the companions who knew contexts and therefore were able to apply the book more appropriately and more softly.
Translation of the transliterated words:

It is also used for the plant when it starts showing it’s fruit and for lesions rising from the skin like smallpox. Conceptually, it can take the fortified place or argument because of the protection of the wall and so on. AJDARU here is more deserving and more fulfilling the definition.
