وَيَقُوۡلُوۡنَ طَاعَةٌ   فَاِذَا بَرَزُوۡا مِنۡ عِنۡدِكَ بَيَّتَ طَآٮِٕفَةٌ مِّنۡهُمۡ غَيۡرَ الَّذِىۡ تَقُوۡلُ‌ ؕ  وَاللّٰهُ يَكۡتُبُ مَا يُبَيِّتُوۡنَ‌ ۚ  فَاَعۡرِضۡ عَنۡهُمۡ وَتَوَكَّلۡ عَلَى اللّٰهِ‌ ؕ  وَكَفٰى بِاللّٰهِ وَكِيۡلًا‏

They say, “Obedience is our goal.”                                                                                        Then when they went out from your presence                                                                  A group from among them spent the night                                                                        Doing other than what you preach.                                                                               And Allah records how they spend night(s).                                                                     So, turn away from them and trust on Allah.                                                                   And Allah has always sufficed as a real Guardian.

Why don’t you look at those to whom it was said, “Hold back your hands            And observe the prayer and pay the Zakaat.”

But surely when the fighting was prescribed for them                                                  A group among them fear people                                                                                      Like the fear of Allah or even a stronger fear.

And they said, “God of us all!                                                                                              Why did you dictate on us the fighting?                                                                          Why did you not delay it for a near term (= short time)?”

You say, “Delight of this life is short                                                                                 And the Hereafter is best for him who feared God                                                         And you will not be wronged even a bit.”

The Holy Qor-aan                                                                                                        004:073

 

وَاِنَّ مِنۡكُمۡ لَمَنۡ لَّيُبَطِّئَنَّ‌ ۚ  فَاِنۡ اَصَابَتۡكُمۡ مُّصِيۡبَةٌ قَالَ قَدۡ اَنۡعَمَ اللّٰهُ عَلَىَّ اِذۡ لَمۡ اَكُنۡ مَّعَهُمۡ شَهِيۡدًا

 

Wa-inna-min-koom-la-mun                                                                                                               La-yo-but-tay-un-na                                                                                                                              Fa-in-asaa-but-koom-mo-se-ba-toon-qaa-la                                                                                    Qud-un-aa-mul-laa-ho-aa-luy-ya                                                                                                        Iz-lum-a-koon-ma-aa-hoom-sha-he-daa

 

And most certainly among you is                                                                                          He who definitely stays behind.                                                                                          Then if a misfortune struck you, he said,                                                                      “Certainly Allah conferred blessings on me                                                                    When I was not present with them.”  

 

  • وَ — Wa — And (= Conj., links words, phrases or clauses; additionally; but; also; more over; though; when; while; yet; whereupon)
  • اِنَّ — In-na — Certainly (= Absolutely; assuredly; definitely; doubtlessly; indeed;  positively; really surely; truly; verily. A/t/a, ‘Lo’ and ‘Of a surety’)
  • مِنۡ –Min — Among (= Among, from or out of the class or category of several articles, choices, items, people and things)
  • كُمۡ — Koom — You (= pro., pl., m., 2nd person. You all men. Generally this  way the Holy Qor-aan addresses both men and women)
  • لَ — La — Certainly (=Absolutely; definitely; doubtlessly; indeed; positively; really surely; truly; verily. See Commentary titled as “2 Words of Emphasis used together Multiply Effect”)
  • مَنۡ  — Mun — Who (= Anyone; whoever; whom; whomever; whoso)
  • لَّ — La — Definitely (= Absolutely; categorically; certainly. See لَ above)
  • يُبَطِّئَنَّ — Yo-but-tay-un-na — Stays behind (= v., pres., s., 3rd person., Acts halfheartedly; delays compliance; dilly-dallies; disobeys as long as possible; drags his feet; fails to move fast; lingers; moves lazily; procrastinates. A/t/a, ‘loitereth,’  ‘tarries behind,’ ‘tarries behind (and does not leave to fight in the cause of Allah)’ and such translation confirms  — as is shown by the other verb  قَا لَ  and the pronoun   اَكُنۡ   used in the verse  — that the correct one is in the singular, i.e., man. Thus A Yusuf Ali’s translation ‘men who would tarry behind’ and others as ‘tarry behind,’ ‘lag behind,’ ‘linger behind from fighting in Allah’s cause)’ and ‘hang back’ in the plural is not correct)
  • فَ — Fa — Then (= After all this, at the end, consequently, finally, hence, so, thereafter, therefore or thus. A/t/a, ‘so that’)
  • اِنۡ — In — If (= In case; when; when situation arises; whenever)
  • اَصَابَتۡ — Asaa-but — Struck (= v., past., f., 3rd person., Affected; afflicted; arrived; befell; came to; got hold of; landed upon; overtook; reached; smote; smut; struck. A/t/a, ‘befall’and ‘befalls’ in the present tense but that is contrary to as stated in the past tense in the Holy Qor-aan)
  • كُمۡ — Koom — You (= pro., pl., m., 2nd person. You (all men). See كُمۡ above)
  • مُّصِيۡبَةٌ — Mo-see-ba-toon — Misfortune (= n., s., Adversity; affliction; bad luck; calamity; catastrophe; difficult situation; disaster’; hardship; loss; inconvenience; misfortune; severe problem; tribulation; trouble)
  • قَا لَ — Qaa-la —  He said (= v., past., f., 3rd person. Announce; assert; claim; insist;  maintain. A Yusuf Ali’s translation ‘they say’ in plural  is incorrect. Translations by other authors include ‘he says’ and ‘one says’ in the present tense but that is contrary to as stated in the past tense in the Holy Qor-aan)
  • قَدۡ — Qud — Surely (= Certainly; definitely; indeed; verily. See  لَ  above)
  • اَنۡعَمَ — Un-aa-ma(ul) — He cast blessings (= v., past., s., 3rd person. Bestowed bounties; blessed; conferred favors specially; guided; led to act rightly. A/t/a, ‘bestowed a favour,’ ‘did favour’ and ‘favoured’. But the translation ‘has been gracious’ as a noun is not what the Holy Qor-aan has stated as a verb  in the past tense)
  • اللّٰهُ — Laa-ho — Allah (= The One and the Only One Almighty God)
  • عَلَيۡ — Aa-luy…(ya) — On (= Above; against; for; on; on top of; over; to; upon)

  • لَمۡ — Lum — Not (= Absolutely never; no, not at all)
  • اَكُنۡ — Aa-koon — I was (= v., past., s., 1st person. I; me.  A/t/a ‘we were’ which is a translation by N J Dawood in the plural of what the Holy Qor-aan has stated in the singular)
  • مَعَ — Ma-aa — With (= Along with; among; following or in the company)
  • هُمۡ‌ — Hoom — Them (= pro., pl., m., 3 rd person. Refers to aforesaid people)
  • شَهِيۡدًا — Sha-he-daa — Present (= adj, At hand; in attendance; nearby; over there; present. Also, the word as a noun means attester; bearer of testimony, giver of evidence; martyr; testifier; witness)
