قُل لِلَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ إِن يَنتَهُواْ يُغَفَرْ لَهُم مَّا قَدْ سَلَفَ وَإِنْ يَعُودُواْ فَقَدْ مَضَتْ سُنَّةُ الأَوَّلِينِ

Qul lillatheena kafaroo in yantahoo yughfar lahum ma qad salafa wain yaAAoodoo faqad madat sunnatu alawwaleena

The Aya says:
Say (O Muhammad) to those who rejected: “If they desist then what passed will be forgiven, while if they return then the consistent repeated precedent of the past generations had already been established”

My personal note:
The Aya is addressing the prophet Muhammad upon him be peace but any muslim that wants to carry the message. It mentions that when the rejector desists from acting against Allah and his path then all his or her past actions will be forgiven while if they do come back to the animosity then it reminds them that the precedent of what Allah will do to them had already been set and established.

Translation of the transliterated words:
Qul: say
Note: QUL is derived from the root Qaf-W-L and it means saying in any way possible. QUL is an order addressed to a singular. It means: Say.
Lillatheena: to those who
Kafaroo: rejected (Allah and His message)/ discarded
Note: the root is K-F-R and it means cover or bury in the ground, as in put the seed in the ground and cover it. This is then used conceptually for many purposes as in discarding and rejecting as well as burying. KAFARO is an action that is completed. It means: the action of rejection or discarding of the object (not declared, but understood from the context to point to God and/or the message) happened by the subject (third person plural).
In: if
yantahoo: they stop/ they desist
Note: The root is N-H-Y and it means stopping or ending or desisting. This then takes different form according to the plane of thought of the sentence. YANTAHOO is an action that is being completed or will be completed. It means: the action of ordering or making oneself to cease and desist is happening or will be happening by the subject (third person plural). Here it is a beginning of a conditional statement so it expects an answer.
Yughfar: then will be forgiven/ then will be protectively covered.
Note: the root is GH-F-R or GHAIN-F-R and it means covering for protection. The concrete word is the helmet of the fighter. GHAFOOR is the one that covers to protect. This, in turn means protection from committing the sin and protection from the consequences of sin, which also means forgiving. YUGHFAR is an action that is also a response to the conditional. It means: then will be forgiven or then will be protectively covered.

Lahum: for them/ to them
Ma; what
Qad: indeed
salafa: passed
Note: the root is S-L-F and it means something passed or someone passed. Basically, it means something that already occurred and happened. SALAFA is an action that is derived from the root and that happened. It means: the passing happened by the subject (third person singular pointing to MA=what)
Wain: and if
yaAAoodoo: they return/ they repeat
Note: YaAAOODOO is derived from the root Ain-W-D and it means repeat. It can also mean return since the return is a repetition of previous position. YaAAOODOO is an action that is being completed or will be completed that is derived from the root. It means: the action of repetition or return is happening or will be happening by the subject (third person plural)

Faqad: then
Madat: already happened
Note: the root is M-Dhad-Y and it means when the matter is already completed and finished. One concrete use of the word is when used for the sword then it means that the sword had already done the cutting. MADAT is an action that is completed. It means: the action of passing and already happening happened to the subject (SUNNATU= example/ established pattern)
Sunnatu: established pattern/ the repeated example/ consistently repeated precedent
Note: the root is S-N-N and it means in concrete tooth or teeth. This word also takes many other meanings that are related in different words to the concrete. One of the meanings is aging and years, probably because the teeth change little with years and last long even after death. It is also used to mean the action that is repeated identically very much as the teeth chew identically through the years. SUNNATU means the established repeated pattern and occurrence of.
Alawwaleena: the precedent ones/ the previous ones/ the first ones
Note: AWWAL is derived from the root Hamza-W-L and it means ultimate as a concept and takes different shapes and specific meanings according to the situation including first and so on. It often takes the meaning of first because that is the most ultimate. AWWALEEN means first ones or the preceding ones and so on.

لِيَمِيزَ اللّهُ الْخَبِيثَ مِنَ الطَّيِّبِ وَيَجْعَلَ الْخَبِيثَ بَعْضَهُ عَلَىَ بَعْضٍ فَيَرْكُمَهُ جَمِيعاً فَيَجْعَلَهُ فِي جَهَنَّمَ أُوْلَـئِكَ هُمُ الْخَاسِرُونَ
Liyameeza Allahu alkhabeetha mina alttayyibi wayajAAala alkhabeetha baAAdahu AAala baAAdin fayarkumahu jameeAAan fayajAAalahu fee jahannama olaika humu alkhasiroona

The Aya says:
In order that Allah separates the bad from the good and makes the bad some on top of some so He piles it all and makes it in the hell fire. Those are the losers.

My personal note:
There is a new word here and that is the word YARKUM which means to pile something on top of others to make a big pile that can be the big cloud or artificial hill and so on.

The point here is that Allah will separate the good from the bad in the way they function in this life and relate to His scripture. May Allah make us amongst the good that always respond to His messages and inspiratioins.

Translation of the transliterated words:

Note: the root is KH-B-TH and it means in one of it’s concrete meanings the by products of the metal smelting that is thrown away for being not usable. This term is then used for anything that is not helpful, not usable and not good, or even bad. ALKHABEETHA is the not good or the bad.

wayajAAala: and make/ and transform
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. YAJAAaLA is derived from the root J-Ain-L and it means making, forming or transforming something that already exists. Conceptually, it takes the meaning of transformation more often than formation. YAJAAaLA is an action that is being completed or will be completed. It means: the action of transforming or making the the object (alkhabeeth= the bad) by the subject (third person singular pointing to Allah).

The Aya says:
Indeed those who reject spend their money in order block Allah’s path. So, they will spend it and eventually it will be upon them a regret then eventually they will be defeated. And those who reject will be gathered towards the Hell.

My personal note:
This is a message of where one should invest his or her money and that we should never invest it in blocking Allah’s path because it will be burden and a regret and we never win against Allah. May Allah guide us always to be on His path.

Yunfiqoona: they spend

Note: Yunfiqoona: is a derivative of the word N-F-Qaf. To explain it I use another derivative NAFAQ which means Tunnel. The tunnel is connection under ground from one place to another.

Therefore, the concept carries the meaning of something opposite something or something blocking something or tightening on something as in squeezing it and making it difficult to proceed.

وَمَا كَانَ صَلاَتُهُمْ عِندَ الْبَيْتِ إِلاَّ مُكَاء وَتَصْدِيَةً فَذُوقُواْ الْعَذَابَ بِمَا كُنتُمْ تَكْفُرُونَ

Wama kana salatuhum AAinda albayti illa mukaan watasdiyatan fathooqoo alAAathaba bima kuntum takfuroona

The Aya says:
And their prayers at the house were not but whistling and clapping. Therefore taste the suffering by what you used to reject.

My personal note:
In this is the importance of the prayers to be meaningful and not just noises but no messages contained within them. So, we should pay attention to the words in our prayers for they mean something and serve an important purpose.

Translation of the transliterated words:
Wama: and not

AAinda: at
Albayti: the home/ the shelter/ the mosque
Note: the root is B-Y-T and it means to reach the night and BAYT is the place that you spend the night in. It is also used for any structure that can be used for that purpose and for animal dwellings. Therefore BAYT is closer to a shelter as the conceptual meaning and within that meaning falls the home or the house.

Mukaan: whistling
Note: the root is M-K-Y or M-K-W and it means whistling and is usually used for the sound that comes from birds or snakes. MUKAAN means whistling.

WA is often translated as an addition (and), but inclusion probably covers the meaning a little better. TASDIYATAN is derived from the root Sad-D-Y and it means the echo from the mountains. In here it points to clapping and therefore trying to make for clapping sounds and so on.
Fathooqoo: so taste it
Note: FA means then or therefore or so. THOOQOO is derived from the root TH-W-Qaf and it means taste in all it’s aspects. In a conceptual fashion, it is the sensation THOOQOO is an order or a request addressed to a group. It means: taste.

The Aya says:
And why would Allah not punish them while they make obstacles from the Mosque that is forbidden to violate and they were not it’s guardians. It’s guardians are none other than the God mindful however, the majority of them do not know.

My personal note:
The Aya does continue the same subject is that they are deserving of punishment for the stated sin of blocking the path from prayer for the believers from the Mosque. The Aya does bring about that while they were prevented from punishment while the prophet was with them and while some of them at least ask for forgiveness, the moment that those leave then the punishment may happen.

In this is a message to any nation to not mistreat the pious and God conscious of it’s population.

Almasjidi: the place of worship/ place of sujood/ mosque

It therefore is used conceptually to mean tilting downward of the face or the body including prostration as well as showing any sign of submission to a higher power. The range of meaning all those meanings together and one needs to understand it as both unless there is a strong reason in the sentence or elsewhere in the Qur’an to make one meaning inappropriate or impossible.

AAalayna: upon us
Hijaratan: stones/ rocks
Note: Hajar means stone or rock. The root is HA-J-R and it means to prevent/to make barrier, probably because stones make a good barrier.

HIJARATAN means the rocks or stones.

Mina: from

Waitha tutla AAalayhim ayatuna qaloo qad samiAAna law nashao laqulna mithla hatha in hatha illa asateeru alawwaleena

The Aya says:
And when our signs are recited upon them they said: “We heard. Had we willed we would have said similar to it. This is nothing but legends of the ancients.”

My personal note:
The Aya brings about a potential answer of many people who reject the message and it still sounds the same to this day.

Translation of the transliterated words:
Waitha: and when/ and if and when
Tutla: are recited/ are followed closely
Note: the root is T-L-W and it means following closely. The concrete word that is derived from the root is the baby animal after it had been weaned from the breast and who follows his mother everywhere closely. The word means the following closely and also reciting, because that involves following each word with another. TUTLA is an action that is happening or will be happening. It means: the action of reciting or following closely the object (AYATUNA= our signs) is happening or will be happening by an undeclared subject.

Alawwaleena: the earlier ones/ the first ones/ the ancient ones
Note: AWWAL is derived from the root Hamza-W-L and it means ultimate as a concept and takes different shapes and specific meanings according to the situation including first and so on.

وَإِذْ يَمْكُرُ بِكَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ لِيُثْبِتُوكَ أَوْ يَقْتُلُوكَ أَوْ يُخْرِجُوكَ وَيَمْكُرُونَ وَيَمْكُرُ اللّهُ وَاللّهُ خَيْرُ الْمَاكِرِينَ

Waith yamkuru bika allatheena kafaroo liyuthbitooka aw yaqtulooka aw yukhrijooka wayamkuroona wayamkuru Allahu waAllahu khayru almakireena

The Aya says:
And as they scheme against you (singular) those who rejected in order that they pin you down or kill you or kick you out. And they scheme, while Allah plans and Allah is the best of planners.

My personal note:
The term yuthbitooka is often used in a positive sense to mean to make you well entrenched. However, here within this context, it carries the limiting of movement and maneuverability and therefore a negative connotation very much like when someone is wrestling and then pinned down in a position but the opponent.

The Aya Also also brings about that Allah will always counter the negative plan of the rejecters against His people and message with His own far superior plan of the bigger picture. In a sense He reassures those who follow his path that they are safe within a much bigger plan that is positive for the bigger issues at hand.

The Aya says:
O you who attained faith if you act consciously of Allah then He will make for you a differentiator and atones for you your sins and protectively cover you. And Allah is the one with the great favor.

My personal note:
The Aya brings about a very important theme and that is if we work and act while conscious of Allah then Allah will help us get guided to the right decisions and this will make us move in greater consciousness of Allah and that in turn will give us more insight and wisdom in making decision in a process that is self-propagating and self-sustaining and that ends in the faithful the strongest possible relationship with Allah and that is the point about Iman. May Allah increase our Iman and help us in all those steps that bring us closer to Him always.

Ya ayyuha allatheena amanoo la takhoonoo Allaha waalrrasoola watakhoonoo amanatikum waantum taAAlamoona

Oh you who attained faith do not betray Allah and the messenger and do not betray your safe keeps while you know.

My personal note:
In this is a very important message that the believers have to remain non treacherous to Allah nor to the messenger nor to any other person that entrusted them with something.

My personal note:
This is a message that a society has a responsibility to limit the injustice within it because God’s punishment for injustice will not be limited for the unjust but it will touch as well those who tolerated it and did not raise their voice against it. Therefore it is a societal obligation to try to stem injustice within our roles and abilities in our societies.

Translation of the transliterated words:
Waittaqoo: and beware/ and be conscious of/ and act consciously 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 is often translated as an addition (and), but inclusion probably covers the meaning a little better. ITTAQOO is derived from the root W-Qaf-W and it means guarding or protecting. Since the best way to guard is through consciousness and action according to consciousness. ITTAQOO is an order or a request addressed to a group. It means: be mindful/ act while conscious or act mindfully.

Fitnatan: a test/ a severe test/ a trial
Note: the root is F-T-N and it means in concrete form, the melting of Gold or silver in order to know the pure from the impure or the true from the fake. Therefore, in abstract, the word suggests an extreme test with hardship in it, or a burn with fire or even taking someone’s eyes with the glitter of the false Gold and silver. Here, it means the severe test or trial. FITNATAN means testing and trialing.

la tuseebanna: does not touch/ will not touch/ will not hit
Note: LA is for negation of what comes next. TUSEEBANNA is derived from the root Sad-W-B and it means in one of the concrete usages the rain falling on a place. This word is then used to mean hitting the target correctly or being correct, because the rain is correct in hitting it’s target. TUSIBANNA is an action that is being completed or will be completed. It means: the action targeting and hitting the object (ALLATHEENA= those who) is happening or will be happening by the subject (first person singular).

Allatheena: those who
Thalamoo: were unjust/ displaced things
Note: THALAMOO is derived from the root THA-L-M and it means darkness in the most concrete form. This word also takes the meaning of misplacing right from wrong and transgression or injustice since injustice is displacing right from wrong and a decision made in darkness. THALAMOO is an action that is completed. It means: the action of acting unjustly or transgressing happened by the subject (third person plural)
Minkum: amongst you
Khassatan: particularly/ only
Note: the root is KH-Sad-Sad and it carries the meaning of the very small opening. This conceptually carries the meaning of only one thing or specific thing that goes through or specific and so on. KHASSATAN means only/ particularly/ specifically.
waiAAlamoo: and know (plural)/ know for fact/ Be aware
Note: WA here is to resume a sentence. iAALAMOO is derived from the root Ain-L-M and it means knowing/knowledge or knowledge of facts. iAALAMOO is an order or a request addressed to a group. It means: know or know for fact.

Anna: that
Allaha: Allah
Shadeedu: severe
Note: The root is SH-D-D and it means tightening the rope for the action and tight for the description. Conceptually, The “tight” can also extend the meaning to hard and strong and so forth. SHADEEDU means tight or hard or severe.
alAAiqabi: the punishment/ the consequence
Note: the root is Ain-Qaf-B and it means back of foot. This is the concrete meaning and it is used to mean end, back or behind including the consequence of a person’s action and it can also mean obstacle. ALAAiQABI here is the consequence and in this context, it is pointing to punishment as a consequence of our bad actions.


Salaam all and have a great day
