Lesson
Yushaaqi-qi – (opposes), the origin of this
word is mushaaqah, which is made from
shaqq. Shaqq means ‘towards, and direction’. Here it signifies ‘making a
new path, leaving the path of Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be
upon Him), and following the way other than the believer’s way.
Nu-wallihii – (We shall let him
go), its origin is tawliit, which
means “to appoint someone ruler upon himself, to give something in one’s
possession”. Here it has been used for the meanings of ‘to empower’. Tawallii has also been made from the
same origin. That is to say; which path he chose.
There is obvious publication in this verse about the punishment of that
person, who does not obey the commands of the Messenger of Allaah Almighty (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him). Moreover,
he becomes ready to oppose Him (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him);
particularly in the form that while the Guidance of Allaah Almighty would have been manifested to him openly and
obviously. And he would have certainly known that telling a lie, deceiving and
imposture cannot be current in front of the Messenger of Allaah Almighty (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him) and
Allaah Almighty is the Protector of
Him to decide wrongfully. He told His Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and
peace be upon Him) that the guilty is Ta’-mah,
and the Jew Zayd is innocent. After that,
it was duty of Ta’-mah to be abashed
and agreed to the decision of Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be
upon Him), and adopted the way of believers, had bow his head before the Law of
Islam. But he did not do so, but did against the order of Messenger (grace,
glory, blessings and peace be upon Him) and leaving the Muslims, chose a
separate path.
It is the decision of Allaah Almighty for such person that he
is free to adopt any path, which he wishes in the world. But after death, when
he will come back to Us (Allaah
Almighty), because the Day of Resurrection will surely come, then We will expose
him unto Hell. Alas! He did know that the Hell is very hapless place. Nothing will
be attainable there for him except anguish, pain, suffering, distress, sorrow
and torment, whose bad deeds cause to arrive him at the Hell. May we be protected
from that place by Allaah Almighty. It
has also known from this verse that the person, who will leave Islam for
escaping from the worldly disasters, his abode is Hell.
