Commentary
‘Akiidu – (I shall circumvent), origin of this
word is kiid, which means “trick”. There is another word “makr”
of the same meaning, that is to say, cheating, imposture, fraud, pretence etc.
Juzaazan – (fragments), this word is plural of jaziizun,
which has been derived from jazzun, it means “to break into pieces”. Juzaazan
means “separate pieces”.
Messenger Abraham (peace be upon him) has been causing to
understand his idolater folk among whom his father is also included that “why
do you bow before these images and idols made of clay, stone and metal; for
worship, which have been fabricated by your own hands? I have not been jesting,
but describing the actual condition. It is my belief and I bear witness that
these can do nothing”.
After that, when he (peace be upon him) saw that the people do not
agree to his saying, then he said: Well, now when you will go out to visit a
fair, then I shall beat them black and blue. Perhaps you will understand after it
that worship of these helpless images is vain. Every individual should worship Allaah
Almighty only, Who is Most Powerful and Omnipotent.
Some people of his folk heard but some did not listen to him (peace
be upon him) and slipped away carelessly. But Abraham (peace be upon him) was
strong of his inclination. He was desirous to manifest upon them the helplessness
of the idols. When they went collectively to attend a fair, then he (peace be
upon him) raised the hatchet and broke entire idols into pieces except the one;
which was considered by them a leader of all, so that they may be informed
verbally also that “Behold helplessness of your chief idol”.
