Lesson
Badii-‘un – (The Originator - without matter and model or sample).
This word has been derived from the word bada’.
The word abdaa’a has also come out
from it. It means “to make anything without matter and without looking any
sample/model”. Badii’ means “an
Inventor, Artificer, Artist and Artisan, Who is really and truly Originator and
Inventor, Who does neither need any tool or instrument, nor any material or
goods, nor He is Indigent of model and nor any Instructor/teacher. He may
originate/invent everything, whether it has its body or sample earlier or not.
He may create, originate or invent anything, anytime and anywhere. He is The
Creator of the entire universe, earth and skies.
False faiths and beliefs
of the Idolater and Infidel nations have been rejected in this verse. . They
imagined that the matter was already in existence prior to becoming it in any form.
Only God Almighty originated the universe after forming it in an order.
By telling His attribute
Badii, Allah Almighty has commanded
here that only His Existence is ancient, eternal and infinite. He has invented
all the existing, of whose, there did no pattern already exist. He has given
shape to the disruption of heaven, earth and everything in the universe. For
Him, it is very easy to create everything from the very beginning without any
pattern and matter.
“KUN” fayakuun - (Be! And it is), to create and invent the universe, Allah
Almighty does not need any reason, cause, means, ground or support. Just His Command
and sign is enough. This verily reality has been explained in this short
sentence.
It is known from this
verse that only Allah is The Ancient. There was a time when only He was Living
and nothing else existed. Only He created everything with His Intention. Neither
He has felt need of any partner nor helper. Only He is, Who gives new
shapes/forms to all things. It is wrong faith of materialists that God Almighty
is indigent of any one or He has need of anyone else.

And those who have no
knowledge say: Why doth not Allah speak unto us, or some sign come unto us?
Even thus, as they now speak, spoke those (who were) before them. Their
hearts are all alike. We have made clear the Revelations for people who are
sure.

Lesson
Al-laziina laa ya’-lamuuna – (those who have no knowledge), it is meant “the individuals,
who are deprived of actual religious knowledge”. This verse indicates towards the
Infidels/Idolaters particularly.
laa yukallimu-na – (does not speak with us), it means: Why God Almighty does
not speak with us directly without inter-relation of the Prophets and the
Messengers (peace be upon Them).
‘Aa-yah –
(sign, token, a verse of the Holy Qur’an),
this word has also come as for the “Miracle” in the Holy Qur’an. Here it aims ‘the Miracle’ also.
Infidels and idolaters
of Makkah claimed from the Last
Messenger of God Almighty, Muhammad (may glory, grace, blessings and peace be
upon Him) that if Allah Almighty talks to the Prophets and the Messengers
(peace be upon Them) then; why does He not talk to us directly. Or why does He
not send any strange token (miracle) for support and authentication of the Last
Prophet (may glory, grace, blessings and peace be upon Him), so that we should admit
automatically about the truth of Prophet (may glory, grace, blessings and peace
be upon Him) by looking it.
Allah Almighty commands
that the people before them said like these things too. Standard of sense -
spiritual and moral of those people was very low and of these people is also
very low. Since hearts of the both are the same in having not prudence and
gratefulness.
Replying them for these commands,
Allah Almighty says, “you have demanded just one miracle, I have sent many
clear miracles already, for instance; the truth, the trust, the honesty and the
wisdom of the Last Messenger of God Almighty Muhammad (may glory, grace,
blessings and peace be upon Him), there is No example of Holy Qur’an from any aspect. You are Helpless
in replying to it, the Journey of the Last Prophet of God Almighty (may glory,
grace, blessings and peace be upon Him) for Ascension (Me’-raaj) and change of the Moon in two pieces are before you”.
