The Imprecation

Surah Yuunus (Jonah) - 10

                                                          

‘A-‘uu-zu  Billaahi minash-Shay-taanir- Rajiim. 
(I seek refuge in God from Satan the outcast.)

Bis-Millaahir-Rah-maanir-Rahiim.
(In the name of God, the Beneficent, the Merciful.)

                                                           

 وَقَالَ مُوسَىٰ رَبَّنَآ إِنَّكَ ءَاتَيْتَ فِرْعَوْنَ وَمَلَأَهُۥ زِينَةً وَأَمْوَٰلًا فِى ٱلْحَيَوٰةِ ٱلدُّنْيَا رَبَّنَا لِيُضِلُّوا۟ عَن سَبِيلِكَ رَبَّنَا ٱطْمِسْ عَلَىٰٓ أَمْوَٰلِهِمْ وَٱشْدُدْ عَلَىٰ قُلُوبِهِمْ فَلَايُؤْمِنُوا۟ حَتَّىٰ يَرَوُا۟ ٱلْعَذَابَ ٱلْأَلِيمَ 88  

قَالَ قَدْ أُجِيبَت دَّعْوَتُكُمَا فَٱسْتَقِيمَا وَلَا تَتَّبِعَآنِّ سَبِيلَ ٱلَّذِينَ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ 89  

88b.  Our Lord! Destroy their riches and harden their hearts so that they believe not till they see the painful doom. 89.  He said: Prayers of you both have been accepted so be firm-footed and follow not the path of those who have no knowledge.

88b.  Rabba-natmis  ‘alaaa  ‘amwaa-lihim  wash-dud  ‘alaa  quluu-bihim  falaa  yu’-minuu  hattaa  yara-wul-‘azaa-bal-‘aliim. 89.  Qaala  qad  ‘ujii-bad-Da’-watu-kumaa  fasta-qiimaa  wa  laa  tattabi-‘aaanni  sabii-lalla-ziina  laa  ya’-lamuun.

Commentary

                                                                                        

Brutality and violence of Pharaoh increased day by day. At last Prophet Moses and Aaron (peace be upon them) prayed: They are proud of their wealth and property. Destroy they wealth and ruin them. They will never believe with true heart.

Allah Almighty replied: We have accepted your Prayers. You should not worry if appearance of its effect is delayed for some time. Every work is dependent on its fixed time. When the time will come, they will be destroyed. No deficiency should come in your stability and firmness due to delay in punishment. You should remain away from the path of those ignorant and foolish people and continue calling the people unto the Guidance.

Big forces have been performing their duties in the world, as though, this world is a wrestling ground of those forces. Islam teaches that Power of Allah Almighty is overcoming on the entire forces. He lets those forces work and causes to appear their consequence and effect. But sometimes; He stops also their influence on account of any expedience. And sometimes; He strengthens them more than normal. Disobedient people are destroyed by their stroke. But Allah Almighty informs before time; the ways of escaping; to the Obedient; by means of His Prophets (peace be upon them).
