Lesson
‘In – (in fact,
not only so), usually, the meanings of this word come for “if” and as per
Arabic language; it is used as “(on the) condition”, but here, it aims “in fact,
really, indeed”, because actual form of this word was ‘innahuu.
Zalamuu – (they
repelled), this word has been derived from Zulm,
which means ‘tyranny, oppression, not to pay the right of anyone, and if an
individual is not treated properly as he deserves’. Here, it aims that it was
right of these verses that these would have been accepted as true and correct,
but these were not accepted, so it means “those people repelled, drove back or
resisted against them”.
It is
commanded that two matters were common among all those disobedient nations,
circumstances of which have been described so far, and due to adversity of
which, they could not reap advantages from the Guidance of Prophets and
Messengers (peace be upon Them).
Allah, The
Most High; commands: We found most of those people involved in breach of
promise, and maximum from them were fearless in committing evils and
disobedience.
The commentators
of the religion have explained the meaning of covenant as: The covenant “when
God Almighty collected the entire souls of (every) humankind before creation of
Adam (peace be upon Him) and asked from them “Am I not your Lord (‘Alas-tu
bi-Rabbikum)? The souls of mankind replied: Balaaa (Yes! You are our Lord). This was the covenant, which was
made by every human being’s soul, they promised that they will obey the
Commands of their Lord in the world, and which is being described again and
again, further detail of it will be discussed in forthcoming lessons.
Or the
covenant mentioned in this verse aims; which the disobedient people used to
make with their Prophet (blessing on Him) when they were punished. At that time;
they used to say: We shall never disobey the orders of God Almighty in future
if we are saved from this wrath at this time. And whenever the wrath was
postponed, they used to either forget their covenant or break it intentionally.
Moreover, the
sense (meaning) of the verse is common and every human being; who is not
committed to his treaty in the world, is included in it. It makes sense that
foundation of immorality and being criminal is; that an individual is not bound
of his covenant.
Further it is
commanded: Now Pharaoh and Moses (peace be upon Him) are mentioned. Pharaoh and
his people falsified Our Tokens, which We sent by means of Our Messenger Moses
(peace be upon Him). Then behold! What happened to them? At last they were destroyed
and ruined.
