Salaam all,

Hal yanthuroona illa an tatiyahumu almalaikatu aw yatiya rabbuka aw yatiya baAAdu ayati rabbika yawma yatee baAAdu ayati rabbika la yanfaAAu nafsan eemanuha lam takun amanat min qablu aw kasabat fee eemaniha khayran quli intathiroo inna muntathiroona

The aya says: Will they wait untill the angels come to them or your nurturing Lord comes or some of your nurturing Lord’s signs come? The day when some of your nurturing Lord’s signs come the trust/ safety (in Allah) will not benefit a self if it did not attain it from before, or earned goodness in her safety. Say (o Muhammad): wait we are waiting.

My personal note: The Aya lets us as humans know that there will be a time when becoming Mumin will be too late and that is the time when death comes to us as in when the angels come to take our souls. Also the time when the earth reaches it’s destruction and the day when we meet our Lord on the day of judgement.

The Aya points out that we can attain safety and trust in Allah any time before that. However it reminds us that this safety and trust must make us earn goodness for it to count. Therefore we must hasten to do good deeds as Muslims and Mumins before death reaches us and then it will not count. May Allah helps us and guide us in doing good deeds always.

The Aya says: Or you (plural) say if the book was brought down to us, then we would have been more guided thane them. So, clear proof came to you (plural) from your nurturing Lord including guidance and mercy. So, who is more unjust of one declared the signs of Allah untrue and barricaded himeself from them. We shall indeed pay back those who barricade themselves from our signs, the worse suffering by what they used to barricade.

My personal note: I used the term barricade for the terms that were derived from Sad-D-F because that term carries the meaning of the hard shell that acts as a formidable barrier and it is also used for high mountains that make barriers. In this aya is a condemnation for those who make for themselves barriers to prevent themselves from hearing or understanding the message from God.

An taqooloo innama onzila alkitabu AAala taifatayni min qablina wain kunna AAan dirasatihim laghafileena

The Aya says: That you (plural) say: the book was sent down only upon two groups before us, and we were indeed, from their studies not paying attention.

My personal note: The Aya starts with “That” and in this form of the letter it comes more with exclamation and to close a potential argument that they may have. So, The Aya comes after the one that informed them that they needed to follow the book that came down and then this Aya comes to tell them in a sense: Do not come and tell me that only two groups of people got the book and since we had no knowledge of their information we are not responsible for following the message. Now that you have a book in front of you, you are then asked to follow it without making excuses.

Aaala: upon Taifatayni: two groups Note: the root is TTa-W-F and it means to go around something in circles so that you get the feeling that you surround it. This is the concrete meaning and the abstract can be related to it especially the meaning of knowing something very well and being keen about it. TAIFATAYNI is a circle in a conceptual manner. In the context of this Aya, it takes the meaning of two groups because that is the form for the dual.

Min: from qablina: before US Note: the root Qaf-B-L and it means front. This is then carried in time or space or any plain of thought. If it is in time, then front means before, while place would be in front. It is used to mean acceptance and reception since we receive and accept using our fronts.

Wahatha kitabun anzalnahu mubarakun faittabiAAoohu waittaqoo laAAallakum turhamoona

The Aya says: And this is a book, We brought down, blessed therefore join and follow it, and act consciously, perhaps you (plural) will receive mercy.

My personal note: There are some interesting themes here. The Aya comes after the very positive praise of the book of Moses. However, while the book of Moses was praised, this book, the Qur’an, is the one that was associated with the order to join and follow.

In a sense, both books are by the same author Allah, and while the earlier version is worthy of praise and of being followed at a time, the later “edition” is the one that is to be followed once it came down and was completed.

The Aya ends with perhaps you (plural) will receive mercy. Although the perhaps is present, this is a form of Arabic literary style where the perhaps is more of an emphasis. Also, the term Mercy is really the bottom line since all we aim for as people in our actions towards God is to be deserving of receiving His Mercy.

Translation of the transliterated words Wahatha: and this kitabun: book/ the collection of knowledge Note: the root K-T-B and it means putting things together as in grouping the herd together or closing the lips or writing (the most common use), because in writing, one puts the letters and the ideas together.

In a sense, it points to the collection of knowledge and information that are communicated.

The word is also used in Arabic and Hebrew to mean blessing with all the potential meanings that come with blessing. MUBARAKUN means made blessed. faittabiAAoohu: therefore join it and follow it Note: Fa means then or therefore or so. ITTABiAAooHU is derived from the root T-B-Ain and it means following footsteps or following behind, or joining and following. ITTABiAAooHU is an order to a group. It means Join and follow. waittaqoo: and act consciously 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 a demand addressing a group of people. It means: make yourselves act consciously.

The Aya says: Then we gave Moses the book perfection upon the one who did goodness and clear delineation to everything and guidance and mercy. Perhaps they make themselves safe in meeting their nurturing Lord.

My personal note: The use of then in the context is more in the form of continuing the discussion and the relaying of information rather than the then of something happening after since it is clear that Moses preceded Muhammad may Allah’s peace be upon both of them.

This Aya also reiterates the importance of the book of Moses. It also compares notes that the message that came with the book of Moses is the same message that came with the Qur’an, although some of the rulings are different.

This can be because of separation or because of joint or change of color or angle and so on. The action is more of distinction.
