47. He said: my Lord! Lo! In Thee do I seek
refuge (from the sin) that I should ask of Thee that whereof I have no

the lost.

Commentary
‘illaa – (unless), actually these are two words – ‘in
and laa. ‘in means “if” and laa means “not”. In writing,
both words have been jointed and the “n” is a silent letter.
Allah Almighty teaches Himself manners and principles to His chosen
servants, protects and watches them every time specifically and properly, so
that they may not be aloof even a little from the Right Path in any religious
and moral affair, and they should be a pattern for others. Sometimes, He makes
mention of these teachings in Holy Qur’an, so that for always, the wise
people learn manners and principles from it according to their extent and they
understand it also carefully that the Prophets and Messengers (peace be upon
them) convey the people only those commandments which Allah Almighty teaches
them. Therefore, their (peace be upon them) sayings are worthy of practice;
just like the commandments of God Almighty.
In the previous verse, Allah Almighty caused to understand them that
every matter is not capable that about it; either someone should ask of Him or
pray for its provision. Way of praying and asking for any thing from Allah
Almighty is the same as He has taught Himself.
In this verse, for whatsoever Noah (peace be upon him) applied, that is
entirely in accordance with this instruction. He (peace be upon him) requested:
O my Lord! Save me from it (the sin) that I should ask of You that which is against
Your will or pray for such thing which You have not taught me. If You will not
forgive me and have not mercy on me then I shall suffer a loss and be among the
losers.
