See other examples in verses 092:005, 100:007, 100:008; 100:009, 100:012; 103:003 and the Title “2 Words of Emphasis used together Multiply Effect“

The Holy Qor-aan                                         103: 001                                         ○بِسۡمِ اللهِ الرَّحۡمٰنِ الرَّحِيۡمِ‏‏

Bis-mil-laa-hir-rah-maa-nir-ra-heem

With the name of Allah, the most Beneficent, the most Merciful I begin.

The Holy Qor-aan                                        103 : 002                                                      وَٱلۡعَصۡرِ

Wul-us-ray

(Sworn  as an absolute certainty) By The Time that is passing by swiftly

  • وَ          Wa…(l)           Sworn By         (= This وَ vaao is like taking an oath; solemn declaration; Call for someone or something to come forward, testify and vouch as a witness)
  • ٱلۡعَصۡرِ    Us-ray            The Time          (= Any day, hour or longer period that is passing by swiftly; declining day; era; evolutionary period; fleeting time; Time through the ages)

(====)

The Holy Qor-aan                                         103: 003                                              إِنَّ ٱلۡإِنسَـٰنَ لَفِى خُسۡرٍ

In-nul-in-saa-na-la-fee-khoos-rin

Most certainly  Man is in a sure state of continuing loss.

  • اِنَّ         Inn…(ul)          Most certainly  (= Absolutely; definitely; doubtlessly; indeed; positively; really; surely; truly; verily) *

  • خُسۡرٍ      Khoos-rin        State of loss      (= A continuing state of loss; losing proposition; perdition)

* Note 103:003. Two Arabic words اِنَّ and لَ have very similar meanings. They are used in the same one clause or sentence to create extreme emphasis. The English equivalents for both the words are almost the same. Instead of using the same word twice (‘certainly’, certainly’) in the translation of the same one verse, a more appropriate expression ‘most certainly’ has been used because that conveys the real intent of the original text clearly better. Extreme emphasis has been created this way in many places in the Holy Qor-aan. See our Commentary titled as “2 Words of Emphasis used together….”  Examples including this verse can be seen in 092:005, 100:007, 100:008; 100:009, 100:012; 103:003.

(===)

The Holy Qor-aan                                         104: 003                                      ٱلَّذِى جَمَعَ مَالاً۬ وَعَدَّدَهُ ۥ

* Note 104:004. Most translations of مَالَهُ construe it as a combination of two words and state as shown above, and that logically does get connected to the word مَالاً۬ in the previous verse. However, a much broader, more comprehensive and enormously rich meanings come up when مَالَهُ is construed as a combination of three words — being مَا meaning ‘all that or whatever’ plus لَ meaning ‘belonging to, for, or owned by’ plus هُ meaning ‘his or him’ — because then مَالَهُ will mean ‘All that belongs to him’ — not just the wealth he has stored.

* Note 002:152. The Holy Qor-aan repeats its message for all occasions.   Verse 002:128 and 002:202 in 1st person format are prayers by q person for others in a group.   Verse 002:152 in 2nd person format is God Almighty’s address to the whole of the Mankind.   Verse 002:129 and 002:130 in 3rd person format are prayers for future generations, and 062:003 is a forecast about future believers who will enter Islam.   It uses many formats in different words covering various scenarios to reiterate its core message that remains constant and applies to all aspects of human life.  It urges seeking forgiveness and exhorts granting it, and the action يُزَكِّيۡ spells out interim stages in that process.   This action is often labeled Salvation

The verse 002:152 enumerates many functions which the Messengers perform.
1. They declare, explain, elaborate, inform, make aware, narrate, read, rehearse; repeat, share and communicate extensively regarding the revelations, messages and signs they brought.
2. They sanctify anyone who comes to them by cleansing, washing and getting rid of their sins. They help people grow by removing their spiritual impurities, shortcomings and weaknesses. They provide an environment conducive for others to multiply spiritually.
3. They coach, educate, instruct, tell, teach, train and tutor in the completed Book or Code (005:004) in which prior Scriptures had merged, and what others did not know before.
