Clear Proof of Allah’s Sovereignty

Surah ‘Al-Baqarah (The Cow) – Chapter – 2)

‘A-‘uu-zu  Billaahi minash-Shay-taanir- Rajiim. 
(I seek refuge in God from Satan the outcast.)

 
Bis-Millaahir-Rah-maanir-Rahiim.
(In the name of God, the Beneficent, the Merciful.)

تِلْكَ ٱلرُّسُلُ فَضَّلْنَا بَعْضَهُمْ عَلَىٰ بَعْضٍ مِّنْهُم مَّن كَلَّمَ ٱللَّهُ وَرَفَعَ بَعْضَهُمْ دَرَجَٰتٍ وَءَاتَيْنَا عِيسَى ٱبْنَ مَرْيَمَ ٱلْبَيِّنَٰتِ وَأَيَّدْنَٰهُ بِرُوحِ ٱلْقُدُسِوَلَوْ شَآءَ ٱللَّهُ مَا ٱقْتَتَلَ ٱلَّذِينَ مِنۢ بَعْدِهِم مِّنۢ بَعْدِ مَا جَآءَتْهُمُ ٱلْبَيِّنَٰتُ وَلَٰكِنِ ٱخْتَلَفُوا۟ فَمِنْهُم مَّنْ ءَامَنَ وَمِنْهُم مَّن كَفَرَ وَلَوْ شَآءَ ٱللَّهُ مَاٱقْتَتَلُوا۟ وَلَٰكِنَّ ٱللَّهَ يَفْعَلُ مَا يُرِيدُ 253
 

253b.  And We gave Jesus son of Mary, clear proofs (of Allah’s Sovereignty) and We supported him with the Holy Spirit. And if Allah had so willed it, those who followed after them would not have fought one with another after the clear proofs had come unto them, but they differed, some of them believing and some disbelieving. And if Allah had so willed it, they would not have fought one with another. But Allah doeth what He will.

253b.  Wa ‘aatayNaa  ‘Iisabna-  Marya-mal-Bayyinaati  wa  ayyadNaa-hu  bi-Ruuhil- Qudus. Wa  law  shaaa-‘Allaahu  maqtata-lallaziina  mim-  ba’-dihim—mim-ba’-di  maa jaaa- ‘at-  humul-Bayyi-naa- tuwa  laa-kinikh-talafuu  fa-minhum-man  ‘aamana  wa  min-hum-man-kafar.  Wa  law  shaaa-‘Allaahu  maq-tata-luu; wa laa-kinnAllaaha  yaf-‘alu  maa  yuriid.

Commentary

‘Ibna-  Marya-ma – (son of Mary), it aims to declare that Prophet Jesus (peace be upon him), whom the Christians consider God or son of God, actually He (peace be upon him) is son of Mary. Neither He is God and nor son of God. By face He (peace be upon him) is a Mankind like others and He (peace be upon him) is like other humankind also in the necessities of mankind.

‘Al-Bayyinaatu – (clear proofs), it signifies towards all such miracles and tokens which were given to Prophet Jesus (peace be upon him), by observing which, every wise and justice-lover was influenced to believe in the Messenger-hood of Jesus (peace be upon him).

Ruuhul- Qudus – (the Holy Spirit), in the phrase of Holy Qur‘aan, it aims Angel Gabriel (peace be upon him). Although, He (peace be upon him) is a closest Angel to God Almighty, even then He (peace be upon him) is a creature of God Almighty, and the Christians who consider him one of three gods, take it wrongly. How an Angel can be a God?

‘AyyadNaa-hu – (We supported him), although Jesus (peace be upon him) was very Excellent and Proficient, even then He (peace be upon him) was a Mankind and like other human beings, he (peace be upon him) was needy of Allah Almighty also for being saved from getting loss and reaping benefits.

At the end it is commanded that if Allah Almighty wished, those people who had seen the bright tokens of entire Messengers and after all the Last Messenger, Muhammad (peace be upon them), would not have a quarrel with one another. Some of them embraced Islam and were entitled to get rewards, and some disagreed, remained Infidels and deserved punishment.
