165. Then when they forgot that whereof they had been reminded,
We rescued those who forbade wrong, and visited those who did wrong with
dreadful punishment because they were evil-livers.
166. So when they took pride in that which they had been
forbidden, We said unto them: Be ye apes despised and loathed!

Commentary
Ba-‘iisin – (dreadful, grievous, hard to
bear), this word has been derived from baa-‘as. Baa-‘as means awe,
harshness, severity, difficulty.
Khaasi-‘iin – (despised and loathed) this word
is plural of khaasi-‘un, which has been made from khasun.
Khasun means “avaunt, begone, curse”. Khaasi-‘un is
that individual or animal which is driven out, reproved wherever it goes.
It was described in the previous
verse that the wise individuals of ‘Iilah preached the people
of ‘Iilah that the fish should not be caught on the day of
Sabbath in any way. It is disobedience of Allah Almighty. But there was no
actual value of the Command of Allah Almighty in their hearts.
They perceived it as: Our intention
will be concealed due to our tricks, whereas Allah Almighty knows the condition
of the hearts and He is Aware of the intention of everyone. No trick or plan
can deceive Him. He loosened them that haply they may abstain from their
unbecoming act after thinking but they ignored the advice. At last; what
happened with them; has been mentioned here.
It is commanded that when they did
not listen to those who preached them, even that some of preachers became
silent being frustrated from their guidance, We rescued all of those who
forbade them from wicked deeds. But We afflicted those disobedient people in
severe wrath as punishment for their disobedience.
But when, even then they did not abstain
from wrongdoing and their disobedience increased day by day; then We commanded:
Be ye apes and taste the flavor of scorn, contempt and baseness. This incident
has been mentioned in Surah Baqarah also and was explained clearly.
The Children of Israel
knew and understood it properly. Accordingly, the mention of that incident
exists in their Holy Books even till today. The human being should learn from
this story that he should go on that Path without any kind of trick or
deception; with pure intention, which Allah Almighty has fixed for him.
