This verb means arrive righteousness when it affects others and become righteous when it affects the person or persons and here is means become righteous because it talks about the group itself.

ALLAH seeks in you the ease and does not seek in you the difficulty, and to complete the count (of days) and to declare ALLAH's greatness for what he guided you, and perhaps you thank

The Aya says:
Counted days, so whoever was sick or traveling, therefore a count of other days. And on those that are unable to bear him (the fasting), feeding of a poor person as an exhange. So, whoever volunteers goodness, then it is better for him. And that you abstain/fast is a better choice to you if you knew.

My personal note:
The Aya gives the license for the people who are unable to fast/abstain. They can do it at another time. However, if that is impossible, then they have to free themselves of that obligation through the feeding of the poor.

The Aya mentions that the one that does things voluntarily is choosing well and that the better choice is fasting.

Translation of the transliterated words:
Ayyaman: Days
Note: the root is Y-W-M and it means day. AYYAM is a plural of day and therefore the meaning of the word is Days. The AN at the end is due to the grammatical place of the word in the sentence.

فَمَنْ خَافَ مِن مُّوصٍ جَنَفًا أَوْ إِثْمًا فَأَصْلَحَ بَيْنَهُمْ فَلاَ إِثْمَ عَلَيْهِ إِنَّ اللّهَ غَفُورٌ رَّحِيمٌ
Faman khafa min moosin janafan aw ithman faaslaha baynahum fala ithma AAalayhi inna Allaha ghafoorun raheem

The Aya says:
Therefore whoever became afraid of a tilt in a person leaving the will, or breaking of law (of GOD in equity), So he reconciled between them, therefore, he (the reconciler) acted within the law (of GOD). Verily, the GOD is the great protector (of all), the one with the womb-like mercy.

My personal note:
Here, GOD asks for the people to leave the will according to his rule and that is equity and justice. Anyone who reconciles between people so that there is equity is acting within GOD's rule or law.

The Aya ends up with GOD stating that HE is GHAFOOR which means the one that covers others or all to protect them. This happens through preventing them from error and through GOD forgiving of errors. RAHEEM is the one with womb-like mercy. Therefore, one gets the image of GOD putting us in his womb-like mercy to cover us and protect us from our own errors. Blessed is HE.

Note: the root is R-Ha-M and it means womb for the concrete. For the abstract, it assumes all the good that comes from the womb including love and compassion and warmth. RAHEEM is the one that has the womb like mercy.

The Aya says:
in case the permanence of death arrived at one of you, if he left behind goodness (inheritance), then it was mandated that he leave a will to the parents and the nearer people in what is recognized as good. (This is) an obligation on those who are conscious.

My personal note:
Here, I left the original structure of the Arabic sentence to make the Aya a little clearer. May GOD forgive me in case I erred.

The nearer people are understood as the relatives, but it may also include people who are near physically as neighbors or near to the heart as friends and so forth.

Walakum fee alqisasi hayatun ya olee alalbabi laAAallakum tattaqoon

The Aya says:
And belongs to you life in the rule of equality of the crime to the punishment, O people who resort to the substance inside(unbiased brain and heart). Perhaps you guard yourselves (through consciousness).

My personal note:
The Aya says that the rule of making the committer of a crime against a fellow human meet the same punishment is a source of life to people who are conscious.

The Aya addresses the OLEE AL ALBAB and that means the people who ultimately resort to the useful substance that is inside them to reach the conclusions. I considered this useful substance the unbiased brain and heart.

Translation of the transliterated words:
Walakum: And to you (plural) belongs

Alqisasi: that whoever perpetrates a crime against another human face the same action.
Note: the root is Qaf-Sad-Sad and it means cutting in conrete as in cutting hair or other things. In abstract it is also used in telling a story because it is a cutting of the bigger story of life.

يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُواْ كُتِبَ عَلَيْكُمُ الْقِصَاصُ فِي الْقَتْلَى الْحُرُّ بِالْحُرِّ وَالْعَبْدُ بِالْعَبْدِ وَالأُنثَى بِالأُنثَى فَمَنْ عُفِيَ لَهُ مِنْ أَخِيهِ شَيْءٌ فَاتِّبَاعٌ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَأَدَاء إِلَيْهِ بِإِحْسَانٍ ذَلِكَ تَخْفِيفٌ مِّن رَّبِّكُمْ وَرَحْمَةٌ فَمَنِ اعْتَدَى بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ فَلَهُ عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ

The Aya says:
O YE who made selves safe (in GOD and his message), just retribution was written on you (plural) in the killed. The free, in the free, and the slave/servant, in the slave/servant and the female, in the female. Therefore, whoever, was forgiven by his brother an entity, so follow footsteps by what is recognised (as good) and deliver to him (the one that forgave) in goodness. This is to lighten burden on you from your nurturer, and mercy. So, whoever oversteps boundary after that, therefore belongs to him, painful suffering.

My personal note:
ALQISAS is the rule that whoever commits a crime against a fellow human will have to face the exact same punishment. Here, it points to the killing where the rule is to be applied according to this Aya.

The free, in the free, and the slave in the slave and the female in the female mean that the person that committed the crime has to pay the price for it, whether he was free, slave/servant or female.

The word Qisas that is used in this Aya means what is taken should be given back or something equal to the loss. This Aya actually deals with the compensation part due to some key words in it that point away from killing in place of killing. Those key words are "the killed" which points only to the loss but without mention of the killers. Another main key word is forgiven an entity or forgiven something. This cannot apply to killing the killer, because you cannot forgive something, you either kill him or let him live. This points to some compensation other than the killing for the killing.

The Aya ends up asking the family of the one that was killed to forgive, at least something and asking for the person that is forgiven to follow that act with the same acts of kindness to all people especially the family of the person that was killed.

Those are the ones that were truthful and those are the ones that guard through conscious.
