Commentary
‘Afwun – (forgiveness), we have discussed about
this word in Surah Baqarah. It has many meanings, one of which is
“endurance, patience”. Here it aims the same.
Yanzagannaka – {if someone (afflict you)}, the origin of
this word is nazgun, which exists in the same verse after it. Nazgun means
“to tamper with any tipped object, to stab any pointed thing”. Here it aims
“devilish whim”.
It was described in the
previous verses that some people are believers of Allah Almighty; even then
they ascribe plurality to God Almighty in the birth of a child after its birth.
Even that they name him like idolaters as Abdul Harith etc.
Therefore, the human being has been informed about the evils of polytheism. It
is true but speaking the truth before any mankind is just like involving
oneself in quarrel with him. So, flaming by the idolaters was not a grand
thing. Messenger of Allah Almighty (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon
Him) described them openly in a previous verse: Call upon your so-called
partners (of God Almighty), then contrive against Me, spare Me not. They can
never hurt Me because My Protecting Friend is Allah Almighty.
Being Protecting Friend, Allah
Almighty guides His Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him)
in this verse about the behavior which must be adopted in future.
It is commanded: O Messenger
(grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him)! Keep to forgiveness, enjoin
kindness and turn away from the ignorant. Speak the truth and carry on laying
stress on the people to perform the works; good for the humanity. You should
not respond to the opponents if they begin to treat You with rudeness and
ignorance. You must tolerate the grief/pain which they tease.
If any time, Satan excites You
that the people have been disgracing You. So, You should respond with abuse to
their abuse and kick them if they give you a blow.
You should seek refuge in Allah
Almighty immediately if; due to natural tendencies of humankind, you have any
fear of affect of this whim, because He is Hearer and Knower. Do not respond
their abusive conduct. Mind Your own business.
It is as much
big useful advice that grandest social and political problems of the life can
be solved with it. Whenever anyone gets chance; should enjoin for good works
and speak the truth. Respond with patience and tolerance to the enemies when
they provoke, and do not provide opportunity of dispute from own side. A Day of
final Judgment will come and the Support of God Almighty will be with the
Patient, if disbelievers do not accept it.
