Commentary
Yujza – (will have the recompense), this word has been
derived from the word Jazaa,
which means ‘retaliation’. The word ‘retaliation’ is used for both purposes
i.e. Reward for them who did good works and punishment for the wrong-doers.
Naqiiraa – (a speck, an atom), as per Arabic language naqiira is
a deep line in the Centre of the Stone of Date fruit. Due to this relation,
here it signifies towards a worthless thing.
It
was mentioned in the previous lesson that disbelievers and infidels turn away
their faces from Allah Almighty because they have been misled
by the Devil, they name the idols like females and sacrifice their religious
offerings in their names. Those people will be cast into the Hell and then they
will never be able to come out from the Fire. It was also told that the
Believers, who will do good works, the room for them will be made in the
luxuriant Gardens of the Paradise . They will dwell there very comfortably forever.
Listening
to this type of verses regarding reward and punishment, the Jews and the
Christians used to say, “We do not have any concern with it because we are
especial bondmen of God. The agony cannot touch us”. The Jews used to say, “We
are (let’s flee to Allah) sons of God. How can we be
punished”? At the other hand the Christians have belief, “Prophet Jesus Christ
(peace be upon Him) was hanged and He sacrificed His life as retaliation of our
sins. Therefore, we would not be captured against our sins. No torment will
touch us even if we do any kind of evil/sin”. All of them have been answered in
these verses.
It
has been directed that neither it will be in accordance with the boasting of
the Jews and nor it will be in accordance with what someone else says. It is
the principle that the person, who is evil-doer, will be punished for his/her
sins and evils, and nobody can be his/her protecting friend or helper to save
from the grip of Allah Almighty. And who will do good works,
will have pure belief, that person, whether is a male or a female, such will enter Paradise and they
will not be wronged a speck, and there will be no deficiency in his/her reward
even equal to a seed of sesame (til).
