Lesson
Zarhum – (leave them), zar is
verb of command which has been derived from wazar , which means “to leave, to give up”.
Khaw-zun– (pastime), khaw-z
means “to enter into water”, then it means “to involve in some activity in such
a way that one becomes unconscious about everything else. Here it aims “those thoughts
in which they are lost”.
Yal-‘abuun– (play of caviling),
it is resembling verb which has been derived from la-‘ab which means play, sport, game etc.
In the previous verse, it was told
that the idolaters of Makkah did not
believe in Holy Qur’aan because of
their stubbornness, even they said that Allah has never revealed any Book upon
any mankind. Then Prophet Muhammad (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon
Him) was commanded that He should ask them: Who revealed Torah upon Prophet
Moses (peace be upon Him), due to which, the Light and the Guidance spread in
the world? Although those people do not obey Its commands properly, for whom
that Scripture was revealed. Moreover, some parchments of that Book which are
of their own benefit, they show them to the people, and hide those pages, in
which Good News about arrival of the last Messenger Muhammad (grace, glory,
blessings and peace be upon Him) has been described.
It is commanded that Allah Almighty
taught the Jews such matters and affairs through Torah which they did not know.
And not only they but even their fathers and ancestors were also unaware. And
then the Jews spread those teachings in Arabian territory and you (O people of Makkah) also got some knowledge from which
you and your ancestors were totally unaware.
It is evident that at that time
only Jews were educated people in the Arab. Even they had told all that, which
was written in Torah about Holy Qur’aan
and Muhammad, the last Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon
Him) before His arrival. But after His (grace, glory, blessings and peace be
upon Him) arrival they denied to believe because of arrogance and stubbornness.
When the tribes of Madina (Aws and Khazraj) came to Makkah, they recognized Prophet Muhammad
(grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him) from the signs, which the Jews
told them and they believed in Him as Messenger of Allah Almighty, but the Jews
themselves remained deprived from the Belief. Moreover, the idolaters of Arab
got more courage of denial because of them, and even they began to say that
Allah has revealed never any Book.
After this, it is signified that
there is no expectation from them that they will give correct answer of this
question. You should say them Yourself: Torah was also revealed by Allah, after
It, He revealed Gospel too, and at the end, all earlier Scriptures were
finalized and completed by the Revelation of Holy Qur’aan. Even then, if they do not listen, then leave them to their
play of caviling, arrogance and stubbornness. Let them waste their time in play
and useless matters. They will be punished for all of it very soon. They will
be destroyed in this world as well as will suffer the severest punishment in
the Hereafter.
