Ignominy For The People Of The Scripture

 

Wrath from God (L-440)

ضُرِبَتْ عَلَيْهِمُ ٱلذِّلَّةُ أَيْنَ مَا ثُقِفُوٓا۟ إِلَّا بِحَبْلٍ مِّنَ ٱللَّهِ وَحَبْلٍ مِّنَ ٱلنَّاسِوَبَآءُو بِغَضَبٍ مِّنَ ٱللَّهِ وَضُرِبَتْ عَلَيْهِمُ ٱلْمَسْكَنَةُ  112.

112a.  Zuribat  ‘alayhimuz-zillatu  ‘ayna  maa  suqifuuu ‘illaa  bi-Hablim-minAllaahi  wa  Hablim-minannaasi  wa  baaa-‘uu  bi  gazabim-minAllaahi  wa zuribat  ‘alay-himul-maskanah.

112a.  They shall be humiliated wherever they are encountered, except through a rope from God, and a rope from the people; and they incurred wrath from God, and were stricken with misery.

Zuribat – {grievous hurt, is stroke, shall be (their) portion}, this Arabic word is also used besides above meanings as “to walk, to fix and to impose.. ”. It has been used for these three meanings in Holy Qur’an too. Here it has been used as the last meanings of ‘affixed’ or ‘imposed’ (ignominy upon them). 

Zillatun- (Ignominy), this word is commonly used for humiliation and disgrace. Some disgraced people and nations remain deprived of respect and honor despite their knowledge, wealth and independence. The disgrace and the humiliation surround them.  

Hablim-minAllaahi  - (a rope or promise from God), it aims “unless these people will neither choose the Divine law of Islam for themselves and nor follow God’s Instructions, ignominy will not be kept away from them. (For more explanation please read lesson # 431).

Hablim-minannaasi  - (a rope or promise from the people) second condition is determined that if it is not so, then they would have to enter in the articles of agreement with the human beings. Until when they will get the support of other nations, will not be able to get rid of disgrace and humiliation. 

Baaa-‘uu  bi  gazabim-minAllaahi  -  (They have incurred anger from their Lord), it means that they came in the fold of God’s wrath due to their evil doings and bad deeds, Divine wrath imposed upon them. 

‘Al-maskanah -  (wretchedness), poverty and indigence are also forms of anger and wrath of God. The financial misery and the economic breakdown are main causes of disgracing themselves of any nation.
