19. O People of the Scripture!
Now hath Our Messenger come unto you to make things plain unto you after an
interval (of cessation) of the messengers, lest ye should say: There came not
unto us a messenger of cheer nor any warner. Now hath a Messenger of cheer
and a warner come unto you. And Allah is Able to do all things.

Commentary
Fatratun – {to be lazy, to become loose, an interval (of cessation)}, fatuur is also from
it, which means “deficiency, reduction, loss”. If something has been happening
constantly, and then it has been stopped and its act of continuing has been
suspended, this process of suspension and stoppage is called fatarah. And the period, during which it
remained suspended, will be called “The Time of Fataratun”. No
Messenger/Prophet had come for nearly six hundred year, after the Prophet Jesus
(peace be upon Him), and coming of the Prophets/Messengers was ceased. It is
called Fataratun. Here it has been described that “The
Messenger of the end times, that is to say; Muhammad (grace, glory, blessings
and peace be upon Him), Last Messenger of Allah Almighty has come now unto you after an interval (of cessation) of the
messengers. Believe in Him and obey Him (grace, glory, blessings and peace be
upon Him)!
It has been described in this verse, “Our Messenger
(grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him) has come unto you for the
purpose, “to tell about the good news to the good people and to warn the
evildoers about their punishment”. According to Arabic language, Bashiir is the Cheer
and Naziir is the Warner. Therefore, every Messenger’s title is Bashiir and Naziir (peace be
upon Them). This verse discloses that in future; none can say, “No Bashiir (Cheer) and Naziir (Warner) came
towards us”, because this Last Messenger of Allah Almighty, Muhammad (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him) has
come in the world, Who is Bashiir and Naziir also. Neither the world can be
arranged, nor the Hereafter without obeying Him (grace, glory, blessings and
peace be upon Him).
At the end, the People of the Scripture have been
threatened, “Remember! Allah is Able to do all things. If you will not believe, He can bring into
being more Believers of His religion, emitting you and can deprive you of His
Mercy due to your wicked deeds”.
