74.
(Remember) when Abraham said unto His father Azar: Takest thou
idols for gods? Lo! I see thee and thy folk in error manifest.
75. Thus did
We show Abraham the kingdom of the heavens and the earth that He might be of
those possessing certainty.

Commentary
‘Aazar – it is the name of Prophet Abraham’s (peace be upon
Him) father, who was an idolater and his entire nation was also idolaters.
‘Asnaam – (idols), it is plural of sanam,
which means an idol. Sanam is called to a fixed bodily form of
any imaginary thing. The idols are also called ‘asnaam (sanam),
because those are statues of imaginary gods.
‘Aalihah – it is plural of Allah, literal meaning of ‘ilaah. A thing, which touches the heart
deeply, aims “the worshipped”.
Malakuut – the system of whole world is called Malak.
Small arrangements to this chief are called Malakuut. Everything in
the world has its own governing system and then, this system is subordinate to
a big collective governor. The first system is Malakuut, while the
other is Malak.
It
was commanded in the previous verses that you should ask from the infidels: Who
did guide you to worship the idols deserting from Allah Almighty? The person,
who has a very common sense, will think certainly that neither the idols can
profit anyone and nor hurt.
A
narration about Prophet Abraham is being described in this verse that He (peace
be upon Him) recognized Allah Almighty by observing the Tokens in the Universe
and contrary to Them, found the idols quite useless and worthless. He (peace be
upon Him) caused to understand the same to His father also.
It
is commanded: Behold! In what manner, Prophet Abraham (peace be upon Him) said the
word of wisdom to His father that: Do you worship these self-made and invented
statues and idols, which are made of mud and stone etc. and determine them as your
gods and worshipped? I know that you and your folk have been entangled in an
open error manifest. What stupidity would be more than it that you make a
statue with your own hands and then begin to worship it?
Next
to above discussion, Allah Almighty says: When Our Prophet Abraham (peace be
upon Him) gave up worshipping idols, then did We begin to show Him the secrets
and the kingdom of the heavens and the earth and described Him that every that
thing, which will be seen by You, has its own system and arrangement, and then
these all systems have been running under the control of a Splendid System,
which has been established by a Sole-Controller – Allah Almighty.
