Lesson
Fa-yu-waffiihim – (will pay them in full), root of this word is ‘waf-yun’ and origin is “’iifaa”, and the word wafaa is also from it. It means “to pay
in full, to return in original”.
‘Ajrun – (Reward, retaliation), in Arabic language,
usually this word is used for both purposes i.e. as good and bad retaliation.
However, here it has come in the meanings of ‘good retaliation’ (reward).
‘As-takbaruu – (were proud), this word has been
derived from kabar, ‘istakbaar. Takabbar
is used for self-praise, showing superiority and ostentation. That is to say;
to consider and disclose oneself more than actually it is.
Waliy-yun - (protecting friend), walaa-yat and tawallii are
also from the same origin. Its plural is ‘Awli-yaaa’,
which means ‘friends, companions’.
After telling about religious false
tenets of the People of the Scripture and out of them particularly the Jews,
now it is being commanded that worthy of rewards are only those people, whose
belief and deeds are correct. As though, for the chaste and pure life, purity
of thoughts and for the right fancies, soundness of the deeds are obligatory
for each other.
These undefiled, sincere and
internally innocent slaves of Allaah
Almighty, who are called Believers, are entitled to get rewards in full and
more Bounties from their Lord Almighty. But those persons, who feel scorn from
these beauties and show superiority (who are proud), they will be involved in a
very painful doom. There will be neither any protecting friend, nor helper and
nor any companion for them.
