Lesson
‘Ajdaru
– (more
likely), this word is from judurun. Judurun means “to be able to”. The person,
who is more (in any attribute) than someone else in comparison, is called ‘ajdaru.
In common use, it is said “he can do only this, unable to perform any other
work”.
Inhabitants
of any city; learn quickly the manners and the etiquettes because they live in
such environment where means of education are spread. Contrary to this, the
inhabitants of villages are of hard nature and unable to learn new things quickly.
In the beginning, there was mention about the inhabitants of the city that
three kinds of people are found there i.e. Infidels, Hypocrites and true
Believers.
Though,
capacity of their temperament wants to learn the good things quickly. On the
contrary, the villagers are more uncivilized. Therefore, we can observe the
difference between inhabitants of the city and the village every day. Even then;
above three kinds of people exist into them. In this verse, common condition of
the wandering Arabs (villagers) has been described.
It is
commanded that usually inhabitants of the villages are more hard on their old
habits. There are a few people into them who can understand the matters of
higher level. While infidelity and hypocrisy has been in force into them; then
now; they have held severely these habits and have become expert in both. Their
natures have become so, that they are very slow in learning new principles and
manners.
They are
not capable of learning such formal Rules and Regulations which Allah Almighty
has sent down by means of His last Messenger (SallAllaahu alayHi wa AaliHii Wasallam). But God Almighty is Aware of miseries of
entire people’s natures and their capacities. And He treats every individual
according to everyone’s capability and intelligence. Therefore, difficult works
are not for them (villagers). Moreover, even such higher ranks will not be
given to them which are for the wise and affable ones.
It is known from this
verse that environments and surroundings take part to correct the temperament
of the human being. By living with civilized people, a man gets utmost
maturity. We learnt from it that correction of environment is most important
item for education and training.
