QURAN TAFSIR ( QURAN AS IT EXPLAIN ITSELF)
3:1. ALM.
3:2. Allah, there is no Allah except He, the Living, the Sustainer.
3:3. He sent down to you the Book with the truth, authenticating what is between his hands; and He sent down the Torah and the Injeel.
3:4. From before as a guidance for the people, and He sent down the Criterion. Those who rejected the revelations of Allah, they will have a severe retribution, and Allah is Noble, exacting in Revenge.
3:5. For Allah nothing is hidden on the earth or in the heavens.
3:6. He is the One who pictures you in the wombs as He pleases. There is no god except He, the Noble, the Wise.
[He uses His Might with wisdom, and His Rule is the Rule of law]
3:7. He is the One who sent down to you the Book, from which there are lawgiving revelations; they are the essence of the Book; and others which are of a similatude. As for those who have a disease in their hearts, they will follow that which is of a similatude, seeking to confuse, and seeking to derive an interpretation. But none know its interpretation except Allah, and those who are well founded in knowledge; they say: "We believe in it, all is from our Rabb." And none will remember except those who possess intelligence.
[Every verse of the Qur’an is absolute truth. The context enables us to understand which ones are to be taken literally and which ones are to be taken allegorically. Each verse in the Book complements another. Many of today’s allegorical verses will become literal as the human knowledge evolves.
11:1. ALR, a Book in which its revelations have been made lawgiving, then detailed, from One who is Wise, Expert.
39:23. Allah has sent down the best narrative, a Book that is similar, dual. The skins of those who are concerned towards their Rabb shiver from it, then their skins and their hearts soften up to the remembrance of Allah. Such is the guidance of Allah; He guides with it whoever He wills. And for whoever Allah misguides, then none can guide him.
41:53. We will show them Our signs in the horizons, and within themselves, until it becomes clear to them that this is the truth. Is it not enough that your Lord is witness over all things?
47:20. And those who believe say: "If only a chapter is sent down!" But when a lawgiving chapter is sent down, and fighting is mentioned in it, you see those who have a disease in their hearts look at you, as if death had already come to them. It thus revealed them.
74:31. And We have made the guardians of the Fire to be angels; and We did not make their number except as a test for those who had rejected, so that those who were given the Book would understand, and those who had faith would be increased in faith, and so that those who had been given the Book and the believers do not have doubt, and so that those who have a sickness in their hearts and the rejecters would say: "What did Allah mean with an example such as this?" It is such that Allah guides whom He wishes, and He guides whom He wishes. And none know the soldiers of your Lord except Him; and it is but a reminder for human beings.]
3:8. "Our Rabb, do not make our hearts deviate after You have guided us, and grant us from You a mercy. Indeed, You are the Grantor."
3:9. "Our Rabb, You will gather the people for a Day in which there is no doubt; Allah does not break His appointment."
3:10. As for those who rejected, neither their money nor their children will avail them anything from Allah. They are the fuel of the Fire.
3:11. Like the behavior of the people of Pharaoh and those before them. They rejected Our signs so Allah took them for their sins. Allah is awesome in retribution.
3:12 Say to those who have rejected: "You will be defeated and gathered towards Hell, what a miserable abode!"
3:13. There was a sign for you in the two groups that met. One was fighting in the cause of Allah, and the other was rejecting. They thus saw them as twice their number with their eyes. And Allah supports with His victory whom He wills. In this is a lesson for those with vision.
3:14. It has been adorned for people to love the desire of women, and sons, and ornaments made from gold and silver, and trained horses, and livestock, and fields. These are the enjoyment of the world, and with Allah is the best abode.
[Believers in the Divine laws see this comfort as the means to a higher Goal --- Service --- Self-actualization --- Paradise]
3:15. Say: "Shall I inform you of what is greater than all this? For those who believe in their Rabb will be estates with rivers flowing beneath them; abiding therein, and with pure mates, and an acceptance from Allah. And Allah is Seer over the servants."
3:16. The ones who say: "Our Rabb, we believe, so forgive us our sins, and spare us the retribution of the Fire."
3:17. The patient, and the truthful, and the dutiful, and the givers, and the seekers of forgiveness in the late hours of the night.
3:18. Allah bears witness that there is no god except He, as do the angels, and those with knowledge, He is standing with justice. There is no god except He, the Noble, the Wise.
[21:22. If there were gods in them except for Allah, then they would have been ruined. Glory be to Allah, the Rabb of the Throne from what they describe.
‘Ilm = Knowledge = Science. Qaaim-am-bil-qist = Those who take the right stand = Those who uphold justice and equity]
3:19. The system with Allah is submission, and those who received the Book did not dispute except after the knowledge came to them out of jealousy between them. And whoever rejects the revelations of Allah, then Allah is swift in judgment.
[‘Ind-Allah = In the Sight of Allah = Approved by Allah = Before Allah. Deen = The System of Life = The Divinely Prescribed Way of Life = In a loose sense, ‘religion’, a ritualistic Way of Life = ‘Religion’ even with a capital R may scarcely come close in meaning to the term Deen. Al-Islam = Submission to Allah = Submission to Divine will = Universal Peace achieved by submission to the One True Allah .
6:87. And from their fathers and their progeny and their brothers We have also chosen; and We guided them to a straight path.]
3:20. If they debate with you, then say: "I have submitted myself to Allah, as well as those who follow me." And say to those who have received the Book and the Gentiles: "Have you submitted?" If they have submitted then they are guided, and if they turn away, then you are only to deliver, and Allah is Seer over the servants.
3:21. Those who reject the revelations of God and kill the prophets without right, and kill those who order justice from among the people; inform them of a painful retribution.
3:22. These are the ones whose works will be lost in this world, and in the Hereafter they will have no supporters.
3:23. Did you not see those who were given a portion of the Book being invited to the Book of Allah to judge between them, then a group of them turns away while they are adverse?
3:24. That is because they said: "The Fire will not touch us except for a few number of days," and they were arrogant by what they invented in their system.
3:25. How shall it be when We gather them on the Day in which there is no doubt; and every soul shall receive what it has earned, and they will not be wronged.
3:26 Say: "Our Allah, Possessor of kingship; you grant kingship to whom You please, and revoke kingship from whom You please, and honor whom You please, and humiliate whom You please; in Your hand is goodness. You are capable of all things."*
[Allah has appointed due measure for all things in the Universe, and therefore, His Rule is the Rule of law]
3:27. "You blend the night into the day, and blend the day into the night; and you bring the living out of the dead, and bring the dead out of the living; and You provide for whom You wish without reckoning."
3:28. Let not the believers take the rejecters as allies instead of the believers. And whoever does so will have nothing with Allah; for you are to be cautious of them as they deserve. And Allah warns you of Himself, and to Allah is the destiny.
[Al-Maseer = Ultimate destination = Journey’s end]
3:29. Say: "Whether you hide what is in your chests or you reveal it, Allah will know." And He knows what is in the heavens and the earth; and Allah is capable of all things.
3:30. The Day every soul will find what good it had done present; and what bad it had done, it will wish that between them was a great distance. And God warns you of Himself, and Allah is Compassionate towards the servants.
