Commentary
Yattaquuna – this word has been derived from Waqi-yun which
means “to save, to guard”. Origin of the word under discussion is ‘Ittiqaaa’,
which means “to escape oneself, to abstain from, to be temperate”.
Hisaab – (calculation, number and account). Here it
aims “counting of there acts and deeds”.
Zikraa – reminder, remembrance.
The
Messenger of Allah Almighty
(grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him) was commanded in the previous
verse that He should not have any connection with those indecent and
mischievous people, who meddle with the Revelations of Holy Qur’aan and
withdraw from them in such condition until they meddle with another topic.
When
Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him) caused to hear the
people above quoted verse, they said: We go to the House of Allah Almighty (the Masjid
of Makkah) for Going Round and worship, and the idolaters exist
there also, and they meddle with us and our acts every time, and mock badly
with the Revelations of Holy Qur’aan. Because if we shall go there,
certainly they will begin to do joke more than earlier, so have we been
disallowed to go there? Although we go there for worship but participation in
their meeting would be unavoidable, and this act of ours would be against the
command of this verse. Some people said: How will they be corrected if we shall
not go unto them?
The
solution of this problem has been described in this verse that the person, who
goes with the intention of worship and Going Round the Ka’-bah without
having any concern with the wicked people, and considers their conduct bad, and
have patience upon their tyranny, then he will not be accountable for the
badness of their deeds. Because he has gone there for his own business and his
only aim is to go round the Ka’-bah (the Square Building
It
is commanded that those people who are saved from the wicked deeds and do not
sit with them, they are not accountable for their evil deeds. If any person has
to attend the company of such people due to any reason during their act of
meddling the Revelations of Allah Almighty,
then he will not be held as their partner and responsible, and he will not be
punished against their wicked acts, and neither can he admonish them at that
time. Of course, whenever any suitable situation is observed, he should try to
admonish them, so that whosoever of them desires to come to the Straight Path,
may turn easily.
Some
religious commentators say: There is no sin for any such person of their going
astray, who does not go for admonishing those wicked people. Moreover the
advice is better that haply they too may ward off evil, and the person, who
advised, is rewarded.
