|
ٱصْبِرْ عَلَىٰ مَا يَقُولُونَ وَٱذْكُرْ عَبْدَنَا دَاوُۥدَ ذَا ٱلْأَيْدِ إِنَّهُۥٓ أَوَّابٌ 17
إِنَّا سَخَّرْنَا ٱلْجِبَالَ مَعَهُۥ يُسَبِّحْنَ بِٱلْعَشِىِّ وَٱلْإِشْرَاقِ 18
وَٱلطَّيْرَ مَحْشُورَةً كُلٌّ لَّهُۥٓ أَوَّابٌ 19

17. Be patient in the
face of what they say, and mention Our servant David, the resourceful. He was
obedient. 18. We committed the
mountains to glorify with him, in the evening and at daybreak. 19.
And the birds, gathered together. All obedient to him. |
‘Ayd – (might, strength, resourceful), here the aim from this word is “firm intention” of Prophet David (Peace be upon him); by which he used to worship God Almighty whole heartedly and felt himself never tired, or it aims “Monarchy and government”. Such both powers he had”.
‘Awwaab – (that who turns towards). This word has been derived from ‘awbun, which means “returning, coming back to same place. It aims that David (Peace be upon him) used to pay attention towards God in all conditions). At another place this word has been used for the birds which used to keep their beaks towards David (Peace be upon him).
It has been commanded for the Messenger (ﷺ): Arrogance and refractoriness of these disbelievers have been increased so much. You must endure their causing troubles with patience. The end of those who bear calamities with patience is always good, particularly when they are constant towards God Almighty. Its example exists in the story of David (Peace be upon him). He used to take work from patience and pay attention to God Almighty only. At last, He helped him and bestowed him Prophet-hood. He granted such affect in his voice that in the morning and evening, when he (Peace be upon him) used to come out in open area and begin to praise God Almighty aloud, then the mountains too begin praising along with him. The birds used to stop flying, gather all of them and begin to imitate in praising by turning their beaks towards David (Peace be upon him). It was affect of enduring troubles with patience in the beginning. God Almighty bestowed rewards to him in the world.
