Commentary
Gulfun – (enfolded
in covers) ‘aglaf is its singular. It means, “Covered
thing”, the thing, which is enfolded in cover and hidden in the curtain. The
Children of Israel used to claim that their hearts are enfolded in covers and
filled with the teachings of Prophet Moses (peace be upon Him). So they did not
need to accept any new teachings.
La-‘anahumUllaahu – (Allah
hath cursed them) La’-nat means distance from the Mercy,
someone’s deprival from God Almighty’s Grace and Mercy. It is also called the
curse as that person is ignored by all.
Qaliilan – (Little),
it signifies that they used to disclose a dim attention towards the belief; off
and on and only a few people, out of them used to believe. Majority was
inclined towards dishonesty, faithless and violence.
When God Almighty fixed the self
fabricated faiths of the Jews that those were False and the Word of Allah
Almighty proved them wrong clearly, then there was no trick or argument
remained with the Children of Israel. They began to say that their hearts were
enfolded in the covers and nothing could effect on their hearts. They would
never obey or become loyal to the instructions of anyone else.
The Jews used to state their false proof
with much pride but God Almighty proclaimed clearly that they were totally
liars. There is no any enfolded cover. But Allah Almighty has cursed them for
their chained unbelief and its covers have enfolded their hearts. They have
been removed from His Mercy and Kindness. So they do not believe in their true
religion. Out of them, only a few people have believed in the Last Messenger
Muhammad (grace, peace and blessings on Him).
It has been known from this verse that if
the human beings either deny the Revelations of God Almighty or change them or
transpose the words between them, or disobey continuously, then Allah Almighty
curses them. The individual like this cannot draw his attention towards the
Religion and Belief.
