** Note 003:145. M Marmaduke Pickthall translated a Hadeeth as follows.

“On the morning when the Prophet died, Abu Bakr came into the mosque at Al-Madinah and found the people all distracted, and Omar telling them that it was a sin to say that he was dead. Abu Bakr went and ascertained the truth, and coming back into the mosque, cried” “Lo! as for him who worshipped Muhammad, Muhammad is dead but as for him who worshippeth Allah, Allah is alive and dieth not.” Then he recited this verse “and it was as if the people had not known till then that such a verse had been revealed.”

             Our Commentaries titled as “LAW – Succession (Caliphate)” and “ISLAM – MULLAH’S Modifications are NOT the True Teachings of Islam” among others enumerate the events which followed the above narration of facts.

اَمۡ حَسِبۡتُمۡ اَنۡ تَدۡخُلُوا الۡجَـنَّةَ وَلَمَّا يَعۡلَمِ اللّٰهُ الَّذِيۡنَ جَاهَدُوۡا مِنۡكُمۡ وَيَعۡلَمَ الصّٰبِرِيۡنَ‏

 

Um-ha-sib-toom-un-tud-kho-lool-jun-na-ta-wa-lum-maa                                                          Yau-la-mil-laa-hoo-la-zee-na-jaa-ha-doo-min-koom                                                                Wa-yau-la-mus-saa-bay-ree-n

 

Have you thought that you will enter the Paradise and surely when                      Allah exposes those who among you strove hard,                                    And exposes the Perseverant.

 

{The question framed in the first eight words of verses 002:215 and 003:143 is the same}

  • اَمۡ — Um — Did (= Question mark such as could, did, have, should, were, or would? Also, or, alternatively; in the alternative)
  • حَسِبۡ — Ha-sib — Thought (= v., past., m., 2nd person., Considered, counted, imagined, reckoned or supposed. A/t/a, ‘Deemed ye.’ The Holy Qor-aan stated this fact in the past tense and it is inaccurate to translate it in the present tense as ‘Do you suppose you will,’ ‘Do ye think that ye would’ and ‘Do you reckon’)
  • تُمۡ — Toom — You (= pro., pl., m., 2nd person. You. The Holy Qor-aan states this way when addressing both men and women jointly)
  • اَنۡ — Un — That (= Since; so that; for the purpose of)
  • تَدۡخُلُوا — Tud-kho-loo(l) — You’ll enter (= v., pres., pl., 2nd person., Be admitted; be allowed; gain admission)

Place of immense beauty, peace and tranquility which is beyond human comprehension. The Heaven. The Orchard. Generally the ‘location on very fertile ground’ is added into the extrapolations of this word. See our Commentary titled as The Paradise)
  • وَ — Wa — And (= Conj., links words, phrases or clauses; additionally; but; also, more over; though; when; while; yet; whereupon)
  • لَمَّا — Lum-maa — Surely when (= This combines two words. The first word  لَ  (= la) means absolutely, certainly, positively, surely, truly or verily. The second word  ما  (= maa) means any time, at such time, when and whenever. A/t/a, ‘While yet’)
  • يَعۡلَمِ — Yau-la-mi…(la) — He exposes (= v., pres., s., 3rd person. This word when used with the name of Allah means He adds to knowledge, discloses, distinguishes, divulges, informs and more as shown in 003:141. But ‘not yet distinguished,’ ‘not yet caused to be distinguished,’ ‘not yet caused to be known,’ ‘has proved’ and ‘not yet known’ are not accurate translations for reasons stated in verse 003:141)
  • اللّٰهُ — Laa-ho(ol) — Allah (= The One and the Only One Almighty God)
  • ٱلَّذِينَ — Ul-la-zee-na — Those who (= pl., m, 3rd person. All those articles, things or persons)
  • جَاهَدُوۡا — Jaa-ha-doo — Strove hard (= v., past., p., 3rd person., Fought; strived or worked hard; struggled. This word refers to those who had acted so previously. A/t/a, ‘who fought,’ ‘fought hard,’ and ‘remained steadfast.’ The Holy Qor-aan has used this word in the past tense; so it is not accurate to translate it in the present tense as ‘who strive hard,’ ‘strive in the way of Allah’ and ‘strive in the cause of Allah’)
  • مِنۡ — Min — From (= Among, from or out of the class or category or several articles, counts, kind, things, persons or phenomenon)
  • كُمۡ — Koom — You (= pro., pl., m., 2nd person., You. See  تُمۡ  above)
  • وَ — Wa — And (= Conj., links words, phrases or clauses. See وَ  above)
  • —- Will not  (The word  لَمَّا  used just before the verb  يَعۡلَمِ  earlier in  the verse and is  مخفف  (hidden) here. Thus it also applies to the verb  يَعۡلَمِ  that comes next)
  • يَعۡلَمَ — Yau-la-ma..(us) —  He exposes (= v., pres., s., 3rd person. See يَعۡلَمِ  above, This word refers to those who are acting so presently)
  • الصّٰبِرِيۡنَ — Saa-bay-ree-na — Perseverant (= n., Consistent; constant; insistent; patient; persistent; pursuant; steadfast; those who patiently persevere with continuity, endurance, fortitude and regular repetitions and show above characteristics with no failing, flailing falling or faltering; unwavering. Those who are patient in the adversity, tribulations and times of stress)

 

** Note 003:143. The words   لم  (lum) and لَن  (lunn) mean no, none, do not, does not and their variations. These words when followed by a verb in the present tense have sometime been translated as a verb in the past tense like in verse 003:143 among others. This site follows the common sense and has translated a verb in the present tense into a verb in the present tense — and not in the opposite way inaccurately as some authors have done.

** Note 003:143a. This verse has used the ver b يَعۡلَمِ  twice; 1st time in the middle and 2nd time towards the end. Some authors translated the word لَمَّا (lum-maa) as ‘will not’ when it came before the 1st appearance of the verb يَعۡلَمِ, and then added the same translation by presuming that it was ‘hidden’ ( مخفف) before the word  يَعۡلَمَ  came up 2nd time. This site translates the actual words of God Almighty as they are put in the Holy Qor-aan and does not bring in human improvements by presuming the existence of some words as if they were ‘hidden’ (مخفف) there.

اِنۡ يَّمۡسَسۡكُمۡ قَرۡحٌ فَقَدۡ مَسَّ الۡقَوۡمَ قَرۡحٌ مِّثۡلُهٗ ‌ؕ وَتِلۡكَ الۡاَيَّامُ نُدَاوِلُهَا بَيۡنَ النَّاسِۚ وَلِيَـعۡلَمَ اللّٰهُ الَّذِيۡنَ اٰمَنُوۡا وَيَتَّخِذَ مِنۡكُمۡ شُهَدَآءَ‌ؕ وَاللّٰهُ لَا يُحِبُّ الظّٰلِمِيۡنَۙ‏

If an injury reaches to you, then surely (remember that)                                             An injury like that did come to the other people.                                                        And these are the days that We rotate among people                                              And that Allah exposes those who have believed                                                      And takes witnesses from among you.                                                                              And by God Allah loves not the wrongdoers.

  •  مَسَّ — Mus-sa…(ul) — Did come (= v., past., s., 3rd person.,  Affected; afflicted; arrived; has hit; inflicted; reached; smacked; struck; stuck; touched; was received.

Addressees; attendees; fellows; followers; folks; groups; hosts; opponents.   The word الۡقَوۡمَ  here refers to a much smaller group (of the Disbelievers) while the word النَّاسِ used further down in this verse describes an enormously large pool (of the People at large in the whole wide world)

This word when used with the name of Allah means He adds to knowledge, discloses,  distinguishes, divulges, informs, instructs, makes known; publicizes, reveals, shows, teaches about or tests. A/t/a correctly such as Allah ’cause to be known,’ ’caused to be distinguished,’ ‘may test’ and ‘may distinguish.’ However, incorrect is the opposite translation ‘Allah may know’ and author M Muhmmad Ali who in his Note 494 to this verse argued that “Allah may know” didn’t contradict the fact that “Allah knows everything” but no reasonable person can accept this fallacy because Allah knows everything, and it is only man who needs to benefit from the teaching provided in verses such as 003:141, 003:143, 003:167, 005:095)
  • اللّٰهُ — Laa-ho — Allah (= The One and the Only One Almighty God)

Those who commit, do, practice, repeat or habitually pursue the evil and cause grievous wrongs to others.  Unfair.  Unjust. Violators. Wicked)

 

** Note 003:141. The simple and straightforward translation of this verse is as set above. However, there are translators whose work conspicuously differs as quoted below.

  1. A Yusuf Ali translated it as a direction for vengeance. “If a wound has touched you, be sure a similar wound has touched the others.”
  1. AR/AM Omar translated it as a consolation. “If you have received an outer injury (in the battle of Uhud), surely, the (disbelieving) people have already received a similar injury (in the same battle).”
  1. M Mohsin Khan and T D Al-Hilali translated it as an assurance. “If a wound (or killing) has touched you, be assured a similar wound (and killing) has touched the others (disbelievers).”
  1. N J Dawood translated it as follows. “If you have suffered a defeat, so did the enemy.”

Not only the above translations differ in range between the martial tones and the kind assurances to the believers, they also are in the past tense. Using past tense invariably describes one event that had happened. But the Holy Qor-aan lays the divine rule in the present participle tense.

Using present tense indicates the direction as a rule of universal application that will keep on happening in all times to come, for the whole mankind, everywhere in perpetuity.
