Lesson
Ta’-dil –
(offer compensation), this word is from ‘Adl,
which means “equality” as per Arabic language. That thing can be compensation
of any other thing, which is equal to the other. Therefore, here it aims ‘compensation’.
Sharaabun – (a
drink), in Arabic, every drinkable thing is called sharaab, as every eatable thing
is called ta-‘aam. There are some
other words for the forbidden liquor (sharaab)
like ‘Khumar’ etc. in Arabic
language.
Hamiim – (boiling),
this word is derived from hamam. Two more
famous words are in use from its origin: 1. Hamaam
– The bath-room, where hot water is available and the hamaam is also kept hot. 2. Hummaa
– it means ‘Fever’.
It is appendix of previous verse. It
was described in the first part of this verse (previous lesson) that they will
not find any protector or intercessor on the Day of Resurrection except Allaah Almighty. Now it is being
explained that if they will offer even every compensation, which they will have,
to get rid of that Day’s calamity, it will not be possible. Entire remunerations
of the whole world will be useless There. Suppose! They have the entire world
and by offering it, they want to be saved, even then they will not be able to escape.
Only good works and belief will be useful There. There will be no source of
their deliverance while their own deeds would be cause of their seizure.
It is commanded that even the
biggest compensation will not be accepted before Allaah Almighty. On the Doomsday, the condition of such people will
be that, ill-luck of their evil deeds would have surrounded them from all
around and they would be standing as prisoners in the Court of Allaah Almighty like criminals to be
punished. Their wicked acts will become handcuffs and fetters, and those will
tie their hands and feet.
They would have drunk big glasses
of cold water in the world. They would not have talked except the bottles
pressed in the ice. They would have remained sitting and sleeping in the soft chairs
and quilted bedding comfortably. But There, their disbelief only will be kept
in front. Worldly pomp, property and dignity will not be useful There, no
concession whether they were honored and well off people of the world. For drinking, boiling water will be given to them, and they will suffer a
painful doom of body and soul of every sort, and that will be only because they
disbelieved in Allaah Almighty and
turned away from His Commands in the world.
