Reading Al-Muyassar fi Gharib al-Qur'an
Ayahs 1–10 of 123
بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ
الٓر ۚ كِتَٰبٌ أُحْكِمَتْ ءَايَٰتُهُۥ ثُمَّ فُصِّلَتْ مِن لَّدُنْ حَكِيمٍ خَبِيرٍ
Alif, Lam, Ra. [This is] a Book whose verses are perfected and then presented in detail from [one who is] Wise and Acquainted.
﴿أُحۡكِمَتۡ ءَايَـٰتُهُۥ﴾: جُعِلَتْ مُحْكَمَةً مُتقنةً، لا نَقْصَ فيها ولا عَيْبَ.
﴿فُصِّلَتۡ﴾: بُيِّنَتْ فيها الأحكامُ والقِصصُ والمواعظُ.
أَلَّا تَعْبُدُوٓا۟ إِلَّا ٱللَّهَ ۚ إِنَّنِى لَكُم مِّنْهُ نَذِيرٌۭ وَبَشِيرٌۭ
[Through a messenger, saying], "Do not worship except Allah. Indeed, I am to you from Him a warner and a bringer of good tidings,"
Explained together with ayah 1
وَأَنِ ٱسْتَغْفِرُوا۟ رَبَّكُمْ ثُمَّ تُوبُوٓا۟ إِلَيْهِ يُمَتِّعْكُم مَّتَٰعًا حَسَنًا إِلَىٰٓ أَجَلٍۢ مُّسَمًّۭى وَيُؤْتِ كُلَّ ذِى فَضْلٍۢ فَضْلَهُۥ ۖ وَإِن تَوَلَّوْا۟ فَإِنِّىٓ أَخَافُ عَلَيْكُمْ عَذَابَ يَوْمٍۢ كَبِيرٍ
And [saying], "Seek forgiveness of your Lord and repent to Him, [and] He will let you enjoy a good provision for a specified term and give every doer of favor his favor. But if you turn away, then indeed, I fear for you the punishment of a great Day.
﴿مَّتَـٰعًا حَسَنًا﴾: بطِيبِ الحياةِ وسَعَةِ الرِّزقِ.
﴿إِلَىٰٓ أَجَلࣲ مُّسَمࣰّى﴾: إلى وقتِ انقضاءِ آجالِكم.
﴿فَضۡلَهُۥ﴾: جزاءَ فَضْلِه في الدُّنيا والآخرةِ.
﴿تَوَلَّوۡاْ﴾: تُعْرِضُوا.
إِلَى ٱللَّهِ مَرْجِعُكُمْ ۖ وَهُوَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَىْءٍۢ قَدِيرٌ
To Allah is your return, and He is over all things competent."
Explained together with ayah 3
أَلَآ إِنَّهُمْ يَثْنُونَ صُدُورَهُمْ لِيَسْتَخْفُوا۟ مِنْهُ ۚ أَلَا حِينَ يَسْتَغْشُونَ ثِيَابَهُمْ يَعْلَمُ مَا يُسِرُّونَ وَمَا يُعْلِنُونَ ۚ إِنَّهُۥ عَلِيمٌۢ بِذَاتِ ٱلصُّدُورِ
Unquestionably, they the disbelievers turn away their breasts to hide themselves from Him. Unquestionably, [even] when they cover themselves in their clothing, Allah knows what they conceal and what they declare. Indeed, He is Knowing of that within the breasts.
﴿يَثۡنُونَ صُدُورَهُمۡ﴾: يَطْوُونها على الكفرِ والعَداوةِ.
﴿يَسۡتَغۡشُونَ ثِيَابَهُمۡ﴾: يَتَغَطَّوْن بها.
۞ وَمَا مِن دَآبَّةٍۢ فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ إِلَّا عَلَى ٱللَّهِ رِزْقُهَا وَيَعْلَمُ مُسْتَقَرَّهَا وَمُسْتَوْدَعَهَا ۚ كُلٌّۭ فِى كِتَٰبٍۢ مُّبِينٍۢ
And there is no creature on earth but that upon Allah is its provision, and He knows its place of dwelling and place of storage. All is in a clear register.
﴿دَآبَّةࣲ﴾: كلُّ حَيَوانٍ يَمْشي -على هيئتهِ- على الأرضِ.
﴿مُسۡتَقَرَّهَا﴾: مكانَ استقرارِها في حياتِها وبعدَ مَماتِها.
﴿وَمُسۡتَوۡدَعَهَا﴾: موضعَ استيداعِها بعد موتِها.
﴿كِتَـٰبࣲ مُّبِينࣲ﴾: واضحٍ، وهو اللَّوحُ المحفوظُ.
وَهُوَ ٱلَّذِى خَلَقَ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضَ فِى سِتَّةِ أَيَّامٍۢ وَكَانَ عَرْشُهُۥ عَلَى ٱلْمَآءِ لِيَبْلُوَكُمْ أَيُّكُمْ أَحْسَنُ عَمَلًۭا ۗ وَلَئِن قُلْتَ إِنَّكُم مَّبْعُوثُونَ مِنۢ بَعْدِ ٱلْمَوْتِ لَيَقُولَنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوٓا۟ إِنْ هَٰذَآ إِلَّا سِحْرٌۭ مُّبِينٌۭ
And it is He who created the heavens and the earth in six days - and His Throne had been upon water - that He might test you as to which of you is best in deed. But if you say, "Indeed, you are resurrected after death," those who disbelieve will surely say, "This is not but obvious magic."
﴿عَرۡشُهُۥ﴾: العرشُ: سريرُ المُلْكِ الذي استوى عليه الرحمنُ، وتحمِلُه الملائكةُ، وهو أعظمُ المخلوقاتِ، وهو سَقْفُ الجنَّةِ.
﴿لِيَبۡلُوَكُمۡ﴾: لِيَخْتَبِرَكم.
﴿أَحۡسَنُ عَمَلࣰا﴾: أعْمَلُ بطاعةِ اللهِ وأَوْرَعُ عن مَحارمِه.
وَلَئِنْ أَخَّرْنَا عَنْهُمُ ٱلْعَذَابَ إِلَىٰٓ أُمَّةٍۢ مَّعْدُودَةٍۢ لَّيَقُولُنَّ مَا يَحْبِسُهُۥٓ ۗ أَلَا يَوْمَ يَأْتِيهِمْ لَيْسَ مَصْرُوفًا عَنْهُمْ وَحَاقَ بِهِم مَّا كَانُوا۟ بِهِۦ يَسْتَهْزِءُونَ
And if We hold back from them the punishment for a limited time, they will surely say, "What detains it?" Unquestionably, on the Day it comes to them, it will not be averted from them, and they will be enveloped by what they used to ridicule.
﴿أُمَّةࣲ مَّعۡدُودَةࣲ﴾: وقتٍ معلومٍ.
﴿وَحَاقَ﴾: أحاطَ.
وَلَئِنْ أَذَقْنَا ٱلْإِنسَٰنَ مِنَّا رَحْمَةًۭ ثُمَّ نَزَعْنَٰهَا مِنْهُ إِنَّهُۥ لَيَـُٔوسٌۭ كَفُورٌۭ
And if We give man a taste of mercy from Us and then We withdraw it from him, indeed, he is despairing and ungrateful.
﴿مِنَّا رَحۡمَةࣰ﴾: نِعْمةً مِن نِعَمِنا الكثيرةِ.
﴿نَزَعۡنَـٰهَا مِنۡهُ﴾: سَلَبْناها منه.
﴿لَيَـُٔوسࣱ﴾: شديدُ اليأسِ من رحمةِ اللهِ.
﴿كَفُورࣱ﴾: كثيرُ الجُحودِ للنِّعَمِ.
وَلَئِنْ أَذَقْنَٰهُ نَعْمَآءَ بَعْدَ ضَرَّآءَ مَسَّتْهُ لَيَقُولَنَّ ذَهَبَ ٱلسَّيِّـَٔاتُ عَنِّىٓ ۚ إِنَّهُۥ لَفَرِحٌۭ فَخُورٌ
But if We give him a taste of favor after hardship has touched him, he will surely say, "Bad times have left me." Indeed, he is exultant and boastful -
﴿ضَرَّآءَ مَسَّتۡهُ﴾: بَلْوى أصابَتْه.
﴿ٱلسَّيِّـَٔاتُ﴾: المصائبُ والشَّدائدُ.
﴿لَفَرِحࣱ﴾: بَطِرٌ بالنِّعْمةِ مُغْتَرٌّ بها.
﴿فَخُورٌ﴾: كثيرُ التعاظُمِ على الناسِ.
