Chastisement of
carelessness
Surah YUUNUS - 10 (JONAH)
BisMillaahir-Rahmaanir-Rahiim
In the name of God, the
Beneficent, the Merciful
21. And when We cause mankind
to taste of mercy after some adversity which had afflicted them, behold! They
have some plot against Our Revelations. Say: Lo! Our messengers write down
that which ye plot.

Lesson
Massat – it is past tense from the word “Massa. Massa
means “to touch, to feel, to meddle with, to suffer”. Here it aims “to suffer”.
Makrun – this word has passed in Surah ‘Aali-‘Imraan.
It means “plot, deceiving, trick, untrue narration. At first place, it aims “knavery,
fraud, to deceive”, and at the second place it means “punishment”. The word tam-kuruun has also been derived from the same
which means “cunning, artful, the cheat, the knaves”.
‘Aayaati – (Portents, Revelations, verses), this word is
plural of ‘Aayatun. Every such thing by which, any other thing appears, the
word ‘aayatun is used for that other thing. Here it aims “the incidents
of the world, from which Omnipotence of Allah Almighty is disclosed.
Which incident happens in the world, from that,
Almighty Power of Allah appears. Therefore, by beholding every incident, we
should assume the result that it is from Allah Almighty. If that incident is
beneficial; we should be thankful to Him, and if it produces sorrow and pain of
mind, then we should pray for its removal.
If the famine occurs, we supplicate before Allah
Almighty to remove it. When it is removed then we do never think about Him; and
say “the famine is finished due to the rain”. In short, Allah Almighty helps us
in our difficulties but we consider that it was done by so and so (without God’s
support). By being entangled in apparent evasions; we forget our Creator and do
not know that Allah Almighty can change at once this prosperity into misfortune
as a chastisement of such carelessness. Every deed of ours, whether that is
good or bad, is brought in writing by His appointed Angels (peace be upon
them), nothing is left without registering. And He can change our ease and
comfort immediately in torment of infidelity and thankless.
