Commentary
Tutahhiru – (you
may purify), origin of this word is tat-hiir, which means “to
purify”. Its base is tahara. Two other words from it - tahar and tahaarat are
more used. Meaning of these both words are “cleanliness and elegance”.
Tuzakkii – {you
may make (them) grow}, its origin is taz-kiyah, which means “to
increase, to enlarge”. Zakaat is a famous word from its
origin, which means “alms, to give money to any needy person from own wealth”.
It is cause of increasing the wealth. And it is called “making grow (barakah)”. Zakaat (paying
the poor-due) is cause of increasing the wealth and making it grown.
It was discussed in the
previous lesson that many servants of Allah Almighty are those who believe in
God and the Hereafter heartily. But the errors are committed by them also. Such
people should repent immediately (without further delay) and do good works,
because performing good is expiation of errors.
One particular good work has
been mentioned in this verse, due to which; the sins are forgiven and the
condition of the society is set off. And the common people do not indulge in
sins due to poverty and starvation.
It is commanded: You should
take alms from their earnings for the necessitous people, because alms will
purify them from their errors and the people will become more prosperous.
Prosperity of the people provides opportunity of calling them unto good works.
Then you should pray for them
also, because their hearts will be satisfied when you will supplicate for them;
as well as they will think: “Allah Almighty and His Messenger (SallAllaahu
alayHi wa AaliHii Wasallam) are our Supporters. One (God) is causing
to rain on us of His Mercy and the Other {God’s Messenger (SallAllaahu
alayHi wa AaliHii Wasallam)} is supplicating for our betterment”.
Passion of doing good and
giving alms and charity will grow in their hearts, and their mutual
co-operation will increase. They will wish to do good works more and more, and
will find occasion of talking about good matters altogether too. Allah Almighty
is Hearer of all these matters and Knower of intentions hidden in the hearts.
He will guide them unto the Straight Path of goodness, and He will be Merciful
on them.
