Lesson
Fisq – (disobedience, to do against the
religious law, abomination, extremely hatred, loathsome), the person who
commits such deeds, is called Faasiq – the word Faajir has also
the same meaning, which has been derived from fajuur. Fajuur means “to cross
the limit violently, to dissipate”. Here
fisq means “eating such thing is against the Divine Way
of Religion”.
Li-yujaaa-diluukum – (so that, they dispute with you),
the origin of this word is mujaadilah and jidaal, which means “to dispute”. Actually this word is yujaaa-diluun, however, the alphabet letter “n” has been removed due to the letter “l”
which has come before “n”.
‘Awli-yaaa-‘a – is plural of Walii. Walii
means – friend, close relative and companion.
It has been described in the
previous verses that only that thing is lawful for food, which has been
permitted in the Holy Qur’an for eating. You should not care about the people,
whether they falsify the commands of Holy Qur’an as much as they wish. Think neither
about their false assertion and nor act upon their sayings lest (God forbid)
doubt is born in your heart from the Holy Qur’an. You should eat fearless and
unhesitatingly, the meat of that lawful animal over which the name of Allah has
been mentioned at the time of its slaughter, but eat never the meat of that
animal, which has died it-self without slaughtering whereon the name of Allah
Almighty. This verse explains about the same matter too.
It is commanded that the slaughtered
animal over which the name of any other than Allah Almighty has been mentioned
at the time of its slaughtering, eating its meat is unlawful and abomination. Otherwise,
if you will eat it, you will be certainly a sinner, because it will be against
the Law of the Religion.
The devils used to instruct to
their disciples and followers that they should carry on absurd reasoning with
the Messenger of Allah Almighty (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon
Him). Their main aim is that somehow You may not abide by the Divine Law of the
Religion. What will be the difference among you and the idolaters, if you
obeyed them?
The idolaters do the same also,
that is to say; neither they believe in Allah Almighty as it is necessary to be
believed and nor they care about His Commands. They find faults in it at their
own as it has been described earlier.
It is known from this verse that
accepting the arbitration of any other person against the decision of Allah
Almighty is also as having belief in a plurality of God Almighty. However, if
that is not against the commands of Holy Qur’an, then there is no objection. That
person, who has any kind of faith against the commands of Holy Qur’an, is
included among the idolaters, according to this verse.
