Astray and Loser



LESSON # 32 FROM HOLY QUR’AN
BAQARAH – 2 (The Cow)
Astray and Loser
Verse – 16 of 286, Section – 2 (Part  - 1)
These are they who purchase
error at the price of guidance, so
their commerce doth not prosper,
neither are they guided.
‘Ulaaa-‘ikallazii-nashtara-wuz-zalaalata bilhudaa: famaa rabihat-tijaaratuhum ‘wa ‘maa kaanuu muhtadiin.

Lesson

Ishtara-wu – (They purchase) to get exchange with the other. This
word is used  for the both ‘buy’ and ‘sell’. Hypocrites have power of choice to accept the Belief. But they choose the way of infidelity and hypocrisy.         

Maa rabihat – (Do not prosper).

      Result of hypocrisy is stated in this lesson that these people go astray leaving the path of guidance. It means that the hypocrites extinguished the Light of humanity due to which every person can get comfort of Eternal Life and goodness. The guidance they had to get, forgot it and grew in themselves bad habits and evil manners. They thought themselves that they had tried to strike a good bargain. Saying oneness of God from their mouths, keeping infidelity in their hearts and being glad on these deeds, how a good wonderful bargaining?

       God Almighty commands that they are losers in this bargaining. They achieved casual and sensual, destroyable advantages spending their entire life. If they would have achieved the comfort of their Eternal Lives was spending their casual lives and wealth in the way of God Almighty, which was a good bargaining. But they have destroyed also their real capital.

       This depravity and lose of hypocrites is the result of their deeds which have been discussed in the previous verses (lessons).
