Lesson
Haqqun –
(the Truth), the word Haqq is of Arabic language and spoken for “reasonable,
correct and the truth”. Here it aims the discourse; mentioning of which is
quite according to reliance.
Kaarihuun –
(those people who consider something wrong), this word is plural of kaarihun and grammatically it is “the
subject”, which has been derived from karah.
The word makruuh is from it also
which means “disliked, unwillingness, forcibly”. Here it aims the same.
Yusaa-quuna –
(are being driven to), it is from sawq,
which means “to drive, to urge on (beasts, by shouts and cries), to get before,
to make one go before”.
There were commands about “The
Spoils of War” in the previous verses that it was of Allah Almighty and He would
distribute it, in those people to whom He would desire, by means of His
Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him). This matter has been
explained in this verse and the verses coming forth, by mentioning the big
events of the Battle of Badr itself, that they should behold and think about
these incidents, that these were happened by mere the Will and Command of Allah
Almighty. There was no part of your will in these entire happenings from the
beginning to the end. Then, you were succeeded in it purely by the support of
Allah Almighty, otherwise; you did have nothing for victory. How do you point
out that you have a right in the Spoils? It is clear that the Owner of the
Spoils is He; due to Whose discretion the Battle was fought and with Whose help;
it was conquered.
It is commanded that the Owner of
the Spoils of War is Allah Almighty and it is the matter that the situation of this
entire Battle happened from the beginning to the end. O Messenger (grace,
glory, blessings and peace be upon Him)! Allah Almighty put it in your heart
that now; there is a chance of taking revenge from the infidels against their
inhumanity behavior, otherwise a party of the Muslims was hesitating from
fighting with effect from the beginning. And when they had to face the equipped
Army instead of the caravan of the tradesmen, then many of them began to
quarrel. And they were so much afraid of the situation that as they were being
driven unto the well of death. But it was the Will of Allah Almighty that they
should fight with the Quraish and the
unarmed Muslims should obtain victory.
