فَلَمَّا فَصَلَ طَالُوۡتُ بِالۡجُـنُوۡدِ ۙ  قَالَ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ مُبۡتَلِيۡکُمۡ بِنَهَرٍ‌ۚ  فَمَنۡ شَرِبَ مِنۡهُ فَلَيۡسَ مِنِّىۡ‌ۚ  وَمَنۡ لَّمۡ يَطۡعَمۡهُ فَاِنَّهٗ مِنِّىۡٓ اِلَّا مَنِ اغۡتَرَفَ غُرۡفَةً ۢ بِيَدِهٖ‌‌ۚ  فَشَرِبُوۡا مِنۡهُ اِلَّا قَلِيۡلًا مِّنۡهُمۡ‌ؕ  فَلَمَّا جَاوَزَهٗ هُوَ وَالَّذِيۡنَ اٰمَنُوۡا مَعَه ۙ قَالُوۡا لَا طَاقَةَ لَنَا الۡيَوۡمَ بِجَالُوۡتَ وَجُنُوۡدِهٖ‌ؕ  قَالَ الَّذِيۡنَ يَظُنُّوۡنَ اَنَّهُمۡ مُّلٰقُوا اللّٰهِۙ کَمۡ مِّنۡ فِئَةٍ قَلِيۡلَةٍ غَلَبَتۡ فِئَةً کَثِيۡرَةً ۢ بِاِذۡنِ اللّٰهِ‌ؕ  وَاللّٰهُ مَعَ الصّٰبِرِيۡنَ

So when Taaloot moved with the soldiers,                                                                         He said, “Allah will surely test you with a river.                                                              So whoever drank from it is not of me (= won’t be a part of me).                            And whoever did not drink it will surely be of me                                                           Except anyone who sipped a tiny sip with his hand.”                                                   Yet they drank from it except a few of them.                                                                   So when they had crossed over it,                                                                                          He and those who had believed along with him                                                               They said, “Today we have no strength                                                                          Against Jaaloot and his army.”                                                                                               Those believing that they definitely were going to                                                     Meet Allah said, “How often a small party has                                                            Overpowered a large party with the plan of Allah?”                                                         And by God Allah is with the perseverant.

A-lum-ta-ra-aiy-lul-ma-la-aiy-min-ba-nee-is-ra-eela                                                                  Min-bau-day-moo-saa-iz-qaa-loo-lay-na-bee-yil-la-ho-moob                                                   Uth-la-naa-ma-lay-kun-no-qaa-til-fee-sa-bee-lil-laa-hay.

Why don’t you see the leaders of all children of Israel                                        After Moses when they said to a prophet of theirs,                                                      “Set up for us a king so we may fight in the cause of Allah.”  

He said, “Could it be that you                                                                                                  If fighting was mandated upon you                                                                                     That you will not fight.”   

They said, “What could be with us that we won’t fight                                                   In the cause of Allah? And surely we were driven away                                                 From our homes and our children.”   

So when the fighting was mandated on them,                                                                  They turned away except a few of them.                                                                              And Allah knows about the wrongdoers very well.

Note 002:246: This verse provides for making goodly loan to Allah.    This real key to the prosperity is dealt with at length, among other places, in the Chapter 092 and 073:021.    An impressive translation of  للّٰهُ يَقۡبِضُ وَيَبۡصُۜطُ   by Allama Nooruddin states, “Allah receives (the sacrifice) and amplifies and to Him you shall be made to return (to get the amplified reward of your deeds)”.

Note 002:244a. Various authors have translated the phrase اَلَمۡ تَرَ اِلَى differently from each other. Some authors stated it differently from their own translations in other verses. Examples of such difference are in several verses.

The segment  اَلَمۡ (= aa-lum = don’t)   is a combination of two words. The first word أ (= aa) is a question mark. The second word لَمۡ  (= lum) means no, not, not at all, never. Jointly the combination means can’t, don’t, hasn’t, haven’t, shan’t or won’t as in verses

The segment تَرَ  (= ta-ra = you see) is a combination of two words. The first word  تَ  (= ta) means ‘you’ which some authors just mimicking the Western renditions of other scriptures have translated as thou or thy. The second word رَ  (= ra = v., pres., pl., 2nd person) means find, look, observe, ponder, see, view, watch or witness. Some situations can justify translating this word as consider, evaluate, know, notice or realize. The simple straightforward translation of this verb includes all the readers and addressees of this verse.

See verses 002:244, 002:247, 002:259, 003:024, 004:045, 004:050, 004:052, 004:061,  004:078, 005:063 and 105:002 among others.  

 

** Note 002:244b.  M Pickthall limited this rule to only the event of Exodus in the history of Jews.  Likewise AM Omar quoted his father, “Allah said to them ‘Die’ (with the result that this generation perished while wandering in the wilderness for forty years.)  Then (from the next generation) He revived them.” 

However, as a Rule of Universal Application this verse has a much broader scope of its application.  It indeed is an accurate record of an historical event.  It also is a forecast as the guidance relative to the similar events that will happen in the future of mankind.  It is one of the grounds that permits immigration.  It labeled as the Fear of Death is judicially held to be a good ground for the grant of Asylum and Refugee Status in the laws of all civilized jurisdictions and the charter of the United Nations.

The Holy Qor-aan                                                                                                                   002: 243

 

كَذَٲلِكَ يُبَيِّنُ ٱللَّهُ لَڪُمۡ ءَايَـٰتِهِۦ لَعَلَّكُمۡ تَعۡقِلُونَ

 

Ka-zaa-lay-ka-yo-buy-ye-nool-laa-ho-la-koom                                                                               Aa-yaa-tay-hee-la-ul-la-koom-tau-qay-loo-n.

 

Like this is how Allah makes clear to you                                                                          His revelations so that you behave wisely.

 

  • كَذٰلِكِ — Ka-zaa-lay-ka — Like this (= Combines two words. كَ means ‘example, like, identical resembling, similar.’   ذٰلِكَ   means ‘all this right in here and refers to an aforesaid event, fact, person or statement.    The combination means ‘even so’, ‘so it will be’, ‘such is the way‘, ‘that is how’, ‘the same way’, ‘this way’, ‘thus’)
  • يُبَيِّنُ — Yo-buy-yay-no(ol) — Explains (= Clarifies; elaborates; espouses; expounds; informs;  makes things crystal clear, obvious, plain and known well; sets limits for permissible activity)
  • اللّٰهُ — Laa-ho — Allah (= The Almighty God; The only One worthy of worship)
  • لَ — La — For (=1. For the attention, benefit, convenience, determination object, general convenience or purpose.  2. Belonging to, concerning, regarding; relative to. or intended for)
  • کُمۡ — Koom — You     *       (= pro., pl., m., 2nd person.   You.   The Holy Qor-aan states this way when addressing both men and women jointly)
  • ءَايَـٰتِ — Aa-yaa-tay — Signs (= n., pl of … An argument, corroboration, indication, insinuation, pointer, portent, sign, suggestion, symbol or token. See Note 002:074)

  • تَعۡقِلُونَ  — Tau-qay-loon — You act wisely  (= v., pres., pl., 2nd person. Act intelligently, sensibly and smartly; understand. See Note 002:171.

 

* Note 002:243.  A simple straightforward translation by avoiding all paraphrasing is given on this site.    For example the last clause (This is how Allah makes His revelations clear to you so that you act wisely and reflect) has used the pronoun ‘koom’ twice and underscored the emphasis on ‘you’ as the addressee.    Paraphrasing this sentence by using ‘you’ only once as the English language would ordinarily do has been avoided here intentionally.    Other examples of this phenomenon include 002:220, 002:222, 002:267, 024:059, 024:060.
