Lesson
Yasta’-zinu – (asking leave), this word has been used already
in the previous verse. Its origin is ‘iznun. ‘Iznun is a famous word,
which means leave, permission. From the same origin, a word ‘istiizaan
has been derived, which means ‘azan. ‘Azan means “to ask for
leave”.
‘Ir-taabat – (in doubt), origin of this word is taraddad,
which has been derived from radd. Radd means “to reject”. Taraddad means
hesitation, when the heart rejects every meaning of any word, and it does not
satisfy on anyone.
It was commanded in the verse before this; that those people who
believe in Allah Almighty and have faith that surely; the Day of Resurrection
will come, making excuses do not strike them. They wait for the command that
when they are asked to sacrifice their lives and wealth (everything) in the Way
of God Almighty, so that they may perform immediately.
Now; it is being commanded that only those people make excuses who say
much verbally, but their hearts do neither believe in God Almighty and nor have
faith in the Day of Resurrection. Their hearts remain seized in doubts. They consider
that the benefits and comfort of this world is everything. They are unable to
see above it. If any time, they reaped advantage from the Muslims and their
works, then they began to follow them. But whenever any occasion of bearing hardships
and suffering distresses came, they stole away by making different kinds of
excuses, and for showing, they got permission of absence from the Messenger of
God Almighty (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him).
Known that the Sign of Belief is that; as soon as one received the
command from Allah Almighty and His Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and
peace be upon Him), got ready to obey without any delay. Whosoever made excuses
and did not obey, he does not know the reality of the Belief.
