Commentary
Ta-hassa-suu – (Ascertain, seek, search for), it is a word
of command from the word tahassasun,
which has been derived from hasasa.
It means “to seek, to use all own five senses i.e. seeing, hearing, smelling etc.”
tahassas means “to try and toil in
ascertaining and seeking”.
Rawhun – (Mercy), actually it means “the cool breeze” by which
one feels pleasure. Raw-Hillaahi means
“the Mercy of Allah”.
Laa tay-‘asuu and laa
yay-‘asuu, both words have come out from the same origin i.e. yaas. Yaas means hopelessness. Laa tay-‘asuu is command of prohibition, that
is to say, “you should not despair, be not hopeless”. Laa yay-‘asu means “they
cannot despair”. Maayuus is a famous
word, origin of which is the same and it means “hopeless, desperate,
disappointed etc.”
Prophet Jacob (peace
be upon him) teaches to his sons that “I do not expose my distress and anguish
unto any human being or imaginary helper – living or dead, save Allah Almighty.
Even then, one should try one’s best, whatsoever one can do. Being hopeless and
doing nothing; is not “Trust in God”.
Trust in God means
that one should struggle his best
Then result of that
struggle should be left on Destiny.
(Tawakul ka yeh matlab hae keh khanjar tez rakh apna
Phir os khanjar kii tezii ko muqaddar kay hawalay kar).
Therefore, you should
go back and search Joseph as much as you can. Make any plan for freedom of your
brother Binyamin; which you may. None
should despair from the Mercy of Allah Almighty in any condition. Only those
people can be hopeless who do not believe in Allah Almighty. Believers see unto
the Mercy and Omnipotence of Allah Almighty always.
It is the lesson from
Prophet Jacob (peace be upon him) which He taught to the Believers of Allah Almighty,
and the Holy Qur’an saved it for
always.
