وَيَدْعُ ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ بِٱلشَّرِّ دُعَآءَهُۥ بِٱلْخَيْرِ وَكَانَ ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ عَجُولًا 11

Commentary
Yad-‘u – (he prays), this word has come out
from “da-‘a-wa”. Du’aaa-‘un means “to beg, to ask for, to pray
for, to call out, to exclaim”. Actually this word is yad-‘uu.
‘Ajuulan – (hasty, one who
precipitates), it is an adjective from ‘ajala. The word “‘ujlatun”
has been derived from it which means “precipitation, great hurry”.
After having Belief in four things i.e. Allah
Almighty, His Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him), His
Last Scripture (Holy Qur’an and the last Day (the Day of Judgment), when
mankind will choose any work, then that Muslim will deserve to be called “a
Believer”. In the first Section of this Chapter, the same has been described
briefly. In succeeding part of this Chapter, these matters will be explained.
At first, one habit of the human being has been mentioned in this verse, which
prevents him from acting upon these works.
It is commanded: Mankind is perverse and hasty who omits
intentionally even his profit and loss; because of bad things. During confusion,
he begins to sever and curse himself and other people. He is enraged in very
ordinary matters. It is the condition of his ill-disposition and rashness that
he begins to pray before Allah Almighty for doom on himself, as unbelievers of Makkah
used to say; being angry that “This Person {Messenger of Allah Almighty (grace,
glory, blessings and peace be upon him)} troubles us”.
On the whole, it becomes difficult for mankind due
to his hastiness that he should wait for the promises of God’s favors with
patience and continue worshipping Him. Impatience of human being ensnares him
in misfortunes, whereas he does not meditate with cool heart in the
Commandments mentioned in Holy Qur’an, so that he may get guidance.
