Lesson
Allaah Almighty commands that there was a folk before you, who asked about such
disclosers, which were not made unlawful clearly, when they were replied then
they knew that it was difficult to act upon them, so they denied from believing
into them.
At first, they met with difficulty
due to asking the command about such a matter, which was left only for their
easiness. Secondly, when they were bidden to do as commanded, they felt trouble
in its procedure compliance and refused to obey this order, and became disbelievers.
In the second verse, it has been
forbidden from another absurd tradition of the idolaters, due to which, such
lawful things were used to make unlawful by them, which were not made unlawful
by Allaah Almighty. For example; they
used to give up drinking the milk of any animal and say that it was left on the
name of so and so idol. Only that particular idol was authorized to reap
advantage from those ‘free’ animals, as now a day too, any male buffalo, bull
or stallion etc. is set free.
These animals had separate names. The Bahirah
was a female camel whose ears were cut; one would not allow his wife,
daughters, or any of his household to benefit from its wool, hair or milk. But,
if it died, they would share it. The Sa'ibah
was a female camel, let loose for free pasture for the idols, and nothing was
allowed to be carried on it. As for the Wasilah, it was the female camel that gives birth to twelve offspring
females without any male camel’s birth in between the twelve. When female camel
delivered for the thirteenth time, they would cut its ears and saying, It has Wasalat (connected deliveries),' and
they would not slaughter it, hit it or prevent it from drinking from any pool. Ham’i was the male buffalo, bull or stallion etc.
which was father of many offspring.
This all was done to please the
idols, but along with it they used to say too that Allaah is also pleased due to these deeds. It is commanded that Allaah Almighty has not appointed anything in this nature (as explained
above). They invent a lie and most of them have no sense, who say it the order
of Allaah Almighty.
