Commentary
Yuhakkimuuna-ka – (they come unto you for
judgment), this word is from tahkiim,
and has been derived from hakam.
Many other words have also come out from it, like Haakim, Mahkuum etc. Tahkiim means “to appoint someone own judge,
to produce own case before a person for decision”.
Yatawallawna – (to turn
away), it is from tawallaaa,
and its object is “they disagree to accept it”.
Mim- ba’-di zaalik – (even after
that), it aims that “they have Torah, but even then they do so”.
The Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be
upon Him) is being informed by Allah Almighty that “the Jews do not come
unto you really for judgment but they have any other aim for themselves in it,
for instance; a severe punishment has been prescribed for a crime in Torah.
They send the case of criminals unto you to be saved from that punishment, thinking
that this Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him) is
illiterate (that is to say; has not got education via proper worldly method),
so how can He know that, which is written in Torah. However He (grace, glory,
blessings and peace be upon Him) is merciful, so will judge a light punishment.
In this manner, they will cause to admit the people their claim that there is
no severe punishment in Torah. Therefore, the offender should be punished
lightly in accord with the judgment of this Messenger (grace, glory, blessings
and peace be upon Him).
An incident was happened that a man from respectable
class of the Jews violated the marriage-bed of a woman. Both were already
married. As per Torah, the punishment for them was stoning. That is to say;
“Kill both of them by stoning, while they are standing in front”. The Jews
wished to save them as they belonged to a high class. So they wanted to finish
this matter by concealing the command of stoning, which existed in Torah and
punishing them lightly like beating them with a whip etc. So, some persons were
sent unto the Messenger of Allah Almighty (grace, glory, blessings and
peace be upon Him), considering that He does not know the punishment of
stoning, which has been described in Torah. Therefore, He will judge to give
them a light punishment. Those persons were told, “If He gives a light
punishment, then obey Him, otherwise No”.
It has been mentioned in the verse “Surprising! They come unto you for judgment while they
have the Torah, wherein Allah Almighty has delivered for them
about this offence clearly. Then what does it mean, if they do not act upon
that command?
Actually, they are deprived of Belief. Neither they
believe in Torah and nor in Holy Qur’aan.
They have made the religion a game.
