Arrival of a Warner aroused repugnance - 1

Chapter “FAATIR’” - (The Creator) - 35
                                                                                         
‘A-‘uu-zu  Billaahi minash-Shay-taanir- Rajiim.
 (I seek refuge in Allaah from Satan the outcast)

Bis-Millaahir-Rah-maanir-Rahiim.

(In the name of Allaah, the Beneficent, the Merciful)

فَلَمَّا جَآءَهُمْ نَذِيرٌ مَّا زَادَهُمْ إِلَّا نُفُورًا   42b ٱسْتِكْبَارًا فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ وَمَكْرَ ٱلسَّيِّئِ 43a
                                       
42b.  yet, when a warner came unto them it aroused in them naught save repugnance-

43a.  (Shown in their) behaving arrogantly in the land and plotting evil;
42b.  Falammaa  jaaa-‘ahum  naziirum-maa  zaa-dahum  ‘illaa  nufuuraa.

43a.  ‘Istikbaaran  fil-‘arzi  wa  makras-Sayyi’.

Commentary

Wa  makras-Sayyi’ – (And plotting of evil), ‘as-sayyi-‘u  is an adjective of makar, that is to say “bad tricks, evil ways”.

With effect from the beginning, the Arabians used to run away from obedience of the foreigners and were ready to persevere strongly their independence in their Country. When none of the foreigners attacked upon them, some reason of which was that their country was apart from other countries; and some reason was that all necessities of life were not available there in accordance with the requirement, then the Arabians began to fight one another mutually and seize others. In process of time, their disputes increased so much that they created their separate tribes and the overpowering upon one another became their habit. Every tribe was desirous that it should be more powerful than others. On top of the same it happened that some of them were prosperous and some were contented in poverty. By this, their mutual strangeness increased more than earlier and looting began regularly. No one individual or tribe used to fall short in seizing own foe. They used to lie in wait for their prey like wolves and whenever they used to find any chance, they used to miss not this opportunity for destroying it very badly. This ambition of becoming superior, practice of tricks and ambush for seizing their opponents bloomed.

When the greatest and the last Messenger Muhammad (grace, glory, blessings and peace of Allaah be upon him) came to them, they adopted the same behavior with him also according to their habit; considering that he too was their rival. And they forgot their covenants, strong oaths and mutual agreements that – “they would show other nations that they were more obedient than them and best followers of the Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace of Allaah be upon him) who would come to them”. In addition, their bad habit of seizing the opponent appeared with more strength. And instead of being obedient and submissive, they became enemy of their Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace of Allaah be upon him).
