Phases determined for the moon

Chapter “YAA-SIIIN” - (YASIN) – 36

‘A-‘uu-zu  Billaahi minash-Shay-taanir- Rajiim.

 (I seek refuge in Allaah from Satan the outcast)

Bis-Millaahir-Rah-maanir-Rahiim.
(In the name of Allaah, the Beneficent, the Merciful)

وَٱلْقَمَرَ قَدَّرْنَٰهُ مَنَازِلَ حَتَّىٰ عَادَ كَٱلْعُرْجُونِ ٱلْقَدِيمِ 39  لَا ٱلشَّمْسُ يَنۢبَغِى لَهَآ أَن تُدْرِكَ ٱلْقَمَرَ وَلَا ٱلَّيْلُ سَابِقُ ٱلنَّهَارِ وَكُلٌّ فِى فَلَكٍ يَسْبَحُونَ 40

                                       

39.  And for the moon We have appointed mansions till she return like an old shriveled palm-leaf. 40.  It is not for the sun to overtake the moon, nor doth the night outstrip the day. And all float their own in orbits.

39.  Wal-Qamara  qaddarNaahu  manaazila  hattaa  ‘aada  kal-‘urjuunil-qadiim. 40.  Lash-Shamsu  yambagii  lahaaa  ‘an-  tudrikal-Qamara  wa  lal-Laylu  saabiqun-Nahaar.  Wa  kullun-  fii  falakiny-yasbahuun.

Commentary

Previously; it was commanded: The day and the night come behind each other regularly. Because their coming and going behind each other depends on the sun, so the attention was drawn towards the sun. Then it was commanded: The sun also runs on unto its appointed resting-place like other planets and its stages too have been determined, where certainly it reaches.

In this verse, the attention has been drawn towards the moon that it has its own separate speed and its phases have been determined; from which it passes every month. When it rises in the beginning of the month, it is seen in the evening like the old date stalk with less light. Then it; along with its light begins to increase. During the middle of the month, it appears full with full light. After that, it begins to decrease again and at the end of the month, it becomes like an old shrunk palm-leaf. In short, it completes its monthly circulation and passes through twenty eight prescribed mansions. Neither the sun can catch the moon and include some part of its time with own time, and nor the day can appear before it that the appointed time of the night is not yet over. That measure of the day and the night does never change which has been fixed in terms of occasion and time. Every planet has been moving in own orbit according to determined and settled order without getting out of its way. Do you not deem that Who determined such magnificent system with such accuracy and control? It is apparent that the entire system has been established by Allaah Almighty.

سُبْحَٰنَ ٱلَّذِى خَلَقَ ٱلْأَزْوَٰجَ كُلَّهَا مِمَّا تُنۢبِتُ ٱلْأَرْضُ وَمِنْ أَنفُسِهِمْ وَمِمَّا لَا يَعْلَمُونَ 36  وَءَايَةٌ لَّهُمُ ٱلَّيْلُ نَسْلَخُ مِنْهُ ٱلنَّهَارَ فَإِذَا هُم مُّظْلِمُونَ 37  وَٱلشَّمْسُ تَجْرِى لِمُسْتَقَرٍّ لَّهَا ذَٰلِكَ تَقْدِيرُ ٱلْعَزِيزِ ٱلْعَلِيمِ 38  

                                       

36.  Glory be to Him Who created pairs, of that which the earth groweth all things, and of themselves, and of that which they know not! 37.  And a Token unto them is Night. We strip it of the Day, and lo! they are in darkness- 38.  And the sun runneth on unto its appointed resting-place. That is the measuring of the Mighty, the Wise.

36.  SubhaanAllazii  khalaqal-‘azwaaja  kullahaa  mim-maa  tumbitul-‘arzu  wa  min  ‘anfusihim  wa  mim-maa  laa  ya’-lamuun. 37.  Wa  ‘Aayatul-lahumul-Laylu;  Naslakhu  minhun-Nahaara  fa-‘izaa  hum-muzlimuun. 38.  Wash-Shamsu  tajrii  li-mustaqar-rillahaa.  Zaalika  taqdiirul-  ‘Aziizil-‘Aliim.

Commentary

Naslakhu – (We remove from it), origin of this word is salakha, actual meaning of which is “to take the skin off from the body”. Then the people began to use it for “dragging away the lid of everything”. It aims that the darkness is the actual thing. When the light of the day spreads over the darkness of the night then there is illumination.

‘Azwaajun – (pairs), this word is plural of zawjun. Every that thing is called zawj which is similar to or opposite to the other.

It is commanded: Allaah Almighty is such Unmatched Who created the things similar to or quite opposite to the others. Accordingly, as the things produced from the land are similar in form and taste, like this those are different from one another in form and taste too, for example, citrus and non-citrus, black and white etc. Just like this, there are some human beings whose manners are similar to others, but some are those whose manners are opposite to others as –men and women, black people and white people etc. The night is also a Sign of His Divine Power, over which the day spreads and the light spreads all around. When the day is removed from the night, then the darkness spreads everywhere. You would have observed that the sun runs on unto its appointed resting-place. Allaah Almighty, Who is the Exalted in Might and the Knowing, has determined all such things at their proper places.

وَءَايَةٌ لَّهُمُ ٱلْأَرْضُ ٱلْمَيْتَةُ أَحْيَيْنَٰهَا وَأَخْرَجْنَا مِنْهَا حَبًّا فَمِنْهُ يَأْكُلُونَ 33  وَجَعَلْنَا فِيهَا جَنَّٰتٍ مِّن نَّخِيلٍ وَأَعْنَٰبٍ وَفَجَّرْنَا فِيهَا مِنَ ٱلْعُيُونِ 34  لِيَأْكُلُوا۟ مِن ثَمَرِهِۦ وَمَا عَمِلَتْهُ أَيْدِيهِمْ أَفَلَا يَشْكُرُونَ 35  

                                       

33.  A Token unto them is the dead earth. We revive it, and We bring forth from it grain so that they eat thereof. 34.  And We have placed therein gardens of the date-palm and grapes, and We have caused springs of water to gush forth therein- 35.  That they may eat of the fruit thereof, and their hands made it not. Will they not, then, give thanks?

33.  Wa  ‘Aayatul-lahumul-‘arzul-maytah;  ‘ahyayNaahaa  wa  ‘akhrajNaa  minhaa  habban  faminhu  ya’-kuluun. 34.  Wa  ja-‘alNaa  fiihaa  jannaatim-min-nakhiilinw-wa  ‘a’-naabinw-wa  fajjarNaa  fiihaa  minal-‘uyuun. 35.  Liya’-kuluu  min  samarihii  wa  maa  ‘amilat-hu  ‘aydiihim.  ‘Afalaa  yash-kuruun.

Commentary

It was commanded previously: The people deny the Messengers of Allaah Almighty (peace be upon them) and being involved in their favorite hobbies, they disregard the Sayings of the Messengers, though they cause to understand them very simple and right thing. They say nothing but that they should believe in Allaah Almighty and be grateful to Him due to His favors. Whatsoever you have received or being given to you, are only by His mercy and kindness.

It is commanded: You see the earth lying dry with your open eyes. Signs of life are not seen in it. After a few days, it rains and the earth becomes green. Astonishing jollity can be seen all around. Grain and corn grow which provide food for the mankind. In one part of the land, gardens of palm trees and grapes are planted. Moreover, Allaah Almighty causes to burst forth therefrom some springs of water for keeping them fresh and green, so that the people may eat their fruit as much as they desire.

Have your hands produced all such things? Never. You have no power to produce anything yourselves. This entire is Bounty of Allaah Almighty and appearance of His Divine Power. Then why do you not reap advantage from these things and be thankful to Him?

(36:33) And a sign for them is the dead earth. We have brought it to life and brought forth from it grain, and from it they eat. (36:34) And We placed therein gardens of palm trees and grapevines and caused to burst forth therefrom some springs - (36:35) That they may eat of His fruit. And their hands have not produced it, so will they not be grateful?

يَٰحَسْرَةً عَلَى ٱلْعِبَادِ مَا يَأْتِيهِم مِّن رَّسُولٍ إِلَّا كَانُوا۟ بِهِۦ يَسْتَهْزِءُونَ 30  أَلَمْ يَرَوْا۟ كَمْ أَهْلَكْنَا قَبْلَهُم مِّنَ ٱلْقُرُونِ أَنَّهُمْ إِلَيْهِمْ لَا يَرْجِعُونَ 31  وَإِن كُلٌّ لَّمَّا جَمِيعٌ لَّدَيْنَا مُحْضَرُونَ 32

                                       

30.  Ah, the anguish for the bondmen! Never came there unto them a messenger but they did mock him! 31.  Have they not seen how many generations We destroyed before them, which indeed returned not unto them? 32.  And all, without exception, will be brought before Us.

30.  Yaa-hasratan  ‘alal-‘ibaad.  Maa  ya’-tiihim-mir-rasuulin  ‘illaa  kaanuu  bihii  yastahzi-‘uun. 31.  ‘Alam  yaraw  kam  ‘ahlakNaa  qablahum-minal-quruuni  ‘an-nahum  ‘ilayhim  laa  yarji-‘uun. 32.  Wa  ‘in  kullul-lammaa  jamii-‘ul-ladayNaa  muhzaruun. (Section 2)

Commentary

Yaa-hasratan – (Ah, How regretful), in Arabic Idiom, the word Yaa is used before every such thing, towards which special attention is required to be drawn, as though they are calling it.

It is commanded: Human beings are slaves of Allaah Almighty but they grip up their loins on His disobedience which is very regretful. When they will come to know the Truth after death, then they will weep and cry. At that time; they will get nothing save grief and repentance. Presently they have been enjoying their lives pleasantly instead of thinking. Alas! Many of the Prophets (peace be upon them) came for their guidance but they used to ridicule them, ignored their advice and did never care.

At last; they were tormented due to their wicked deeds. Today their names and signs have been erased from the earth; who used to mock the Messengers and Prophets (peace be upon them). We cause to hear you their circumstances; so that you should take warning from them. Did these people not meditate still in this matter that those people deserved destruction due to punishment of their evil deeds and arrogance. It was the reason that We ruined most of ancient folks. None of them will return now in this world. These people should learn from their circumstances, otherwise their consequence will also be the same. Listen to it carefully that the disobedient will never get comfort even after death. Certainly the entire guilty people will have to come before Us seized and will find very severe torment of the Doomsday.

Commentary

Name of that third man, who came running from other side of the city, was Habib Najjaar. He was tortured very severely and slaughtered by the people of his folk. He was an innocent and well-wisher of his nation. In the passion of sympathy, he advised to the people. It was entirely good for them to whom he advised. Accordingly, after martyrdom when he reached the Paradise, even then he was thinking about the welfare of his folk. He said: If they could know the honor, which has been bestowed to me; then certainly they would have believed and been admitted among the chosen servants of Allaah Almighty after repentance.

It is commanded: Slaying a man was an extreme oppression of those obstinate people, who martyred him, which they could do in this worldly life. Therefore, they were punished. For this purpose, there was no need to send any Army from the sky to fight them. Before Allaah Almighty they were feeble although they used to consider themselves most powerful in the world.

                                                           

If was commanded: Usually We do not send down soldiers for destroying the enemy. Only rebuking by Angels (peace be upon them) to such people is enough. They will die by their thundering voice only. Making special arrangement for this purpose is not necessary. Accordingly, they died by only one thunder and fell down. There is none who may have any power to speak before the wrath of Allaah Almighty. Haughty people are in deception that they consider themselves greater.
