Good Manner of the Acts

 

Right Practice (L-562)

أُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ ٱلَّذِينَ يَعْلَمُ ٱللَّهُ مَا فِى قُلُوبِهِمْ فَأَعْرِضْ عَنْهُمْ وَعِظْهُمْ وَقُل لَّهُمْ فِىٓ أَنفُسِهِمْ قَوْلًۢا بَلِيغًا 63.

 وَمَآ أَرْسَلْنَا مِن رَّسُولٍ إِلَّا لِيُطَاعَ بِإِذْنِ ٱللَّهِ وَلَوْ أَنَّهُمْ إِذظَّلَمُوٓا۟ أَنفُسَهُمْ جَآءُوكَ فَٱسْتَغْفَرُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ وَٱسْتَغْفَرَ لَهُمُ  ٱلرَّسُولُ لَوَجَدُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ تَوَّابًا رَّحِيمًا 64.

63.  ‘Ulaaa-‘ikallaziina  ya’-la-mUllaahu  maa  fii  quluubihim  fa- ‘a’- riz  ‘anhum  wa  ‘iz-hum  wa  qul-lahum  fiii  ‘anfusihim  qawlam-baliigaa.

64.  Wa  maaa  ‘arsalNaa  mir-Rasuulin  ‘illaa  liyutaa-‘a  bi-‘izNillaah.  Wa  law  ‘annahum  ‘iz-zalamuuu  ‘anfusahum  jaaa-‘uuka  fastag-farUllaaha  was-tag-fara  lahu-mur-Rasuulu  la-waja-dUllaaha  Tawwaa-bar-Rahiimaa.     

63. They are those whom God knows what is in their hearts. So ignore them, and admonish them, and say to them concerning themselves penetrating words.

64. We did not send any messenger except to be obeyed by God’s leave. Had they, when they wronged themselves, come to you, and prayed for God 's forgiveness, and the Messenger had prayed for their forgiveness, they would have found God Relenting and Merciful.


Zalamuuu  - this word has been derived from the word zulm, which means tyranny, oppression against the truth; rule or right, violence, cruelty and such act due to which someone harms (any other person or himself). 

‘Anfusa  - it is plural of nafs (the breath, respiration, the soul, the spirit, essence, heart, the person etc.). It also comes for the meaning of “belonging to, concerning, relevant, depending on” in the paraphrase. For the first verse (# 63), these meanings are proper, while for the second verse (# 64) the meaning as “the soul” is right.

Baliigaa  - (eloquent), to speak in such a deep toned voice, which affects one’s heart and he understands it wholeheartedly.

In this verse, God says: Their behavior is wrong and unbecoming; you must not be deceived from their apparent condition and smattering talks. God knows that entire, whatever they have in their hearts and He will punish them for their evil deeds at the appropriate time. Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) is being commanded by God , “Don’t care for their absurd and hypocritical deeds, advise them continually”. Then it has been explained that if, when they had wronged themselves, they had but come towards you, be abashed and asked forgiveness of God, requested the Messenger to ask God also for their forgiveness, then they would have found  most Forgiving and Merciful. At that time, God would have surely forgiven their errors. Instead of being ashamed and repenting, they began to refuse their crime and swear that they did not commit any sin but their intention was good and they went there; only for harmony and kindness.
