Commentary
Samanan qaliilaa- (a trifling
price), it means that you should not become desirous of wealth; giving up the
Right. The world is a contemptible and undervalued thing comparing to the Right and the Truth, whether
it seems apparently very great thing because it is temporary and frail.
Wa ‘iyyaaya fattaquun – (and
keep your duty unto Me). Ittiqaa means “to save oneself from
the badness (evils)”. Here it aims “the fear of God’s wrath should be cause of
avoiding the badness”, as though, the individual, who has fear of Allah in his
heart, can save himself from the act of badness”.
Which soft behavior has been adopted by Holy Qur’aan with
the Jews and fairly invited them towards Islam; that is also a proof about
Holy Qur’aan that it is the Word of God Almighty. The ways of
disclosing the events and method of addressing; shows full respect of the Jews.
Nothing is narrated like that, which may provoke them. It is the miracle of
Holy Qur’aan which created proper environment for declaration
of the Truth. If we, the Muslims follow at least some of it, then the
entire fears of the world would be finished.
The behavior; which the Jews adopted with Islam, its foundation
seems nothing but stubbornness and misunderstanding. The aim from selling the
Revelations of God is that “the Jewish Scholars used to change the Commands of
God (Torah) for casual benefits of this world, issued self invented religious
decrees for some money, and hid the Orders of God and committed them
inter-mixed for hiding their own badness. Whenever scholars of any nation
indulge in these types of defects, then it is difficult for that nation to save
itself from the destruction.
In this lesson, Allah Almighty caused much to understand about
the good conduct. The Life in this world and its benefits are for a few days.
Due to this reason, He admonishes to the Jews that they should not take
decisions by changing His Orders for the sake of contemptible rewards, because
the reward of telling correctly about My Commandments is better for the both
worlds (this life and on the Day of Resurrection) than these casual advantages
and some compensations.
