QURAN TAFSIR ( QURAN AS IT EXPLAIN ITSELF)
3:31. Say: "If you love God then follow me so God will love you and forgive your sins." God is Forgiver, Merciful.
[Hubb = Love = Full support = Having a common objective. Loving Allah = Following His commands = Serving His creation = Benefiting others. Allah love = His blessings in both lives. Zanb = Tail = Trailing behind. Ghafarah = Helmet = Protection against deterioration = Forgiveness]
3:32. Say: "Obey Allah and the messenger." But if they turn away, then Allah does not love the rejecters.
[Obeying the Messenger = Obeying Allah revelations to him = Obeying the Islamic Central Authority.
4:59. O you who believe, obey Allah and obey the messenger and those in authority among you. But if you dispute in any matter, then you shall refer it to Allah and His messenger if you believe in Allah and the Last Day. That is better and more suitable for knowing.]
3:33. Allah has selected Adam, and Noah, and the family of Abraham, and the family of Imran over the worlds.
[Adam = Aadam = The human ancestor = The first Homo sapiens = Allegorically, Adami, the first humans = Mankind = Possibly a prominent early human = Perhaps a Prophet, but the chain of Prophets begins with Noah.
4:163. We have inspired you as We had inspired Noah and the prophets after him. And We had inspired Abraham, and Ishmael, and Isaac, and Jacob, and the Patriarchs, and Jesus, and Job, and Jonah, and Aaron, and Solomon; and We gave David the zaboor
6:80. And his people debated with him. He said: "Do you debate with me regarding Allah, when He has guided me? I do not fear that which you have set up except if my Rabb wills; my Rabb encompasses all things in knowledge; will you not remember?"]
3:34. A progeny each from the other, and Allah is Hearer, Knower.
[Muhammad belongs to the same progeny of Abraham through Ishmael, and Isa belongs to it through the family of ‘Imran. Now is related the truth about JIsa son of Mariyum. History has made fiction of these two great servants of Allah]
3:35. When the wife of Imran said: "My Allah, I have vowed to You what is in my womb, devoted, so accept from me, You are the Hearer, the Knower."
3:36. So when she had delivered she said: "My Rabb, I have delivered a female," and Allah is fully aware of what she delivered, "And the male is not like the female, and I have named her Mary, and I seek refuge for her and her progeny with You from the outcast devil."
3:37. So her Rabb accepted her a good acceptance, and made her grow into a good growth, and charged Zachariah with her. Every time Zachariah entered upon her in the temple enclosure, he found provisions with her. He said: "O Mariyum, from where did you get this?" She said: "It is from Allah, for Allah provides for whom He wishes without reckoning."
[Zakariya was a Prophet of Allah and a distant uncle of Mary. ‘It is from Allah’… Visitors to the sanctuary serve the saints. Many of them bring gifts to get their vows fulfilled. Yasha in reference to Allah = Through His laws = Common mistranslation, ‘as He pleases’. Bighayiri hisaab = Beyond reckoning = Without account = Humans cannot reckon Allah Power of sustaining and providing the entire Universe. The last sentence of the verse cannot be a quote from Mary, as generally suggested, since she would not lecture a Prophet of Allah]
3:38. It was then that Zachariah implored his Rabb; he said: "My Rabb, grant me from You a good progeny. You are the hearer of prayer."
3:39. So the angels called to him while he was standing, making contact, in the temple enclosure: "Allah gives you glad tidings of John, authenticating the word from Allah, and a master, and steadfast, and a prophet from the upright."
3:40. He said: "My Rabb, how can I have a son when old age has reached me and my wife is infertile?" He said: "It is as such that Allah does what He pleases."
[The infertility in his wife was cured.
21:90. So We responded to him, and We granted him John, and We cured his wife. They used to hasten to do good, and they would call to Us in joy and in fear. And of Us they were reverent.]
3:41. He said: "My Rabb, make for me a sign." He said: "Your sign is not to speak to the people for three days except by symbol, and remember your Rabb greatly, and glorify at dusk and dawn."
[19:10. He said: "My Rabb, make for me a sign." He said: "Your sign is that you will not speak to the people for three nights consecutively."
Abstaining from speech would save the elderly couple from the embarrassing curiosity of people]
3:42. And the angels said: "O Maryium, Allah has selected you and cleansed you, and He has selected you over all the women of the worlds."
[She guarded her chastity and built a strong moral character in very adverse circumstances. Many monks and devotees of temples used to harbor evil intentions against nuns. She was the first revolutionary feminine voice against the manmade institution of monasticism.
57:27. Then We sent in their tracks Our messengers. And We sent Isa, son of Maryium, and We gave him the Injeel, and We ordained in the hearts of his followers kindness and mercy. But they invented Monasticism which We never decreed for them. They wanted to please Allah, but they did not observe it the way it should have been observed. Consequently, We gave those who believed among them their recompense, while many of them were wicked.]
3:43 . "O Maryium submit to the commands of your Rabb and bow down with those bow down."
3:44. This is from the news of the unseen that We inspire to you. You were not with them when they drew straws as to which one of them will be charged with Maryium; you were not with them when they disputed.
3:45. And the angels said: "O Maryium, Allah gives you glad tidings of a word from Him. His name is the Messiah, Isa, son of Maryium. Honorable in this world and in the Hereafter, and from among those who are made close."
*3:46. "And he will speak to the people from the cradle and to middle-age, and is from among the upright."
[Kahlan’ = After attaining full maturity = After age 40.
46:15. And We enjoined man to do good to his parents. His mother bore him with hardship, gave birth to him in hardship, and his bearing and weaning lasts thirty months. So that, when he has reached his independence, and he has reached forty years, he says: "My Rabb, direct me to appreciate the blessings You have bestowed upon me and upon my parents, and to do good work that pleases You. And let my progeny be righteous. I have repented to You; I am of those who have submitted."
Saalih= Doer of good, healthy]
3:47. She said: "My Rabb, how can I have a son when no human being has been with me?" He said: "It is thus that Allah creates what He wills, when He decrees a command, He merely says to it 'Be,' and it is."
3:48. And He teaches him the Book and the Wisdom and the Torah and the Injeel.
3:49. And as a messenger to the Children of Israel: "I have come to you with a sign from your Rabb; that I create for you from clay the form of a bird, then I blow into it and it becomes a bird with the permission of Allah, and I heal the blind and the lepers, and give life to the dead with the permission of Allah, and I prophesize for you what you shall eat and what to store in your homes. In that is a sign for you if you are believers."
3:50. "And authenticating what is between my hands of the Torah, and to make lawful some of that which was made unlawful to you; and I have come to you with a sign from your Rabb, so be aware of Allah and obey me."
[The Qur’an describes denial as a ‘disease’, calls the deniers ‘deaf, dumb and blind’ in*
2:18. Deaf, dumb, and blind, they will not return.
diseased of the heart’ in 2:10.In their hearts is a disease, so Allah increases their disease, and they will have a painful retribution for what they have denied.
and ‘dead’ in 27:80. You cannot make the dead hear, nor can you make the deaf hear the call when they turn their backs and flee.
That is why the revelation, which is the truth, is called a ‘healing’ in
41:44. And had We made it a non-Arabic revelation, they would have said: "If only its verses were made clear!" Non-Arabic and Arabic, say: "For those who believe, it is a guide and healing. As for those who disbelieve, there is deafness in their ears, and they are blind to it. These will be called from a place far away."
Tayir = Omen = Destiny = Registration of deeds = Fleet-footed horse = Bird.
2:260. And Abraham said: "My Rabb, show me how you resurrect the dead." He said: "Do you not already believe?" He said: "I do, but it is so my heart can be relieved." He said: "Choose four birds, then cut them, then place parts of the birds on each mountain, then call them to you; they will come racing towards you. And know that Allah is Noble, Wise."
5:110. Allah said: "O Isa, son of Maryium, recall My blessings upon you and your mother, that I supported you with the Holy Spirit; you spoke to the people in the cradle and middle-age; and I taught you the Book and the wisdom, and the Torah, and the Injeel; and you would create from clay the shape of a bird, then blow into it and it becomes a bird with My permission; and you would heal the blind and the leaper with My permission; and you would bring out the dead with My permission. And I have restrained the Children of Israel from you, that you came to them with proofs; but those who rejected among them said: 'This is clearly magic!'"
6:38. And there is not a creature on the earth, nor a bird that flies with its wings, except they belong to nations like you belong. We did not leave anything out of the record; then to their Rabb they will be gathered.
7:131. When any good came to them, they said: "This is ours," and when any bad afflicted them, they blamed it on Moses and those with him. Their blame is with Allah, but most of them do not know.
17:13. And We have attached to the neck of every man his deeds, and We bring forth for him a record on the Day of Resurrection which he will find on display.
27:16. And Solomon inherited from Dawud, and he said: "O people, we have been taught how to understand the speech of the creatures that fly, and we have been given from everything. This is indeed an evident grace."
24:41. Do you not see that everything in the heavens and the earth glorifies Allah? Even the birds in formation, each knows its contact prayer and its glorification. And Allah is fully aware of everything they do.
27:47. They said: "You have an ill omen with you and those with you." He said: "Your ill omen is with Allah, but you are a people who are being tested." ]
3:51. "Allah is my Rabb and your Rabb, so serve Him, this is a straight path."
3:52. So when Jesus felt their rejection, he said: "Who are my supporters to Allah?" The disciples said: "We are the supporters of Allah, we believe in Allah and we bear witness that we have submitted."
3:53. "Our Rabb, we believe in what You have sent down, and followed the messenger, so record us with those who bear witness."
3:54. And they schemed and Allah schemed, but Allah is the best schemer.
3:55. For Allah said: "O Isa, I will terminate your life, and raise you to Me, and cleanse you of those who have rejected, and make those who have followed you above those who have rejected until the Day of Resurrection. Then to Me is your return, all of you,so I will judge between you in what it was that you disputed."
[Wafaat = Dying of natural causes. Rafa’ = Exalt = Raising in honor. Ilayya = To Me = Allegorically, in My Sight. Allah being Omnipresent is not confined to the heavens.]
3:56. "As for those who have rejected, I will punish them severely in this world and in the Hereafter, they will have no supporters."
3:57. "And as for those who have believed and have done good works, We will pay them their recompense; Allah does not love the wicked."
[Zaalim = Oppressor = Violator of human rights = Wrongdoer = One who relegates the truth = One who displaces something from its rightful place = Unjust = One who chooses to do wrong]
3:58. This We recite to you from the revelations and the wise reminder.
[Az-Zikr = The Reminder = The Book that can give you eminence = The Message worth taking to hearts]
3:59. The example of Isa with Allah is similar to that of Adam; He created him from dust, then He said to him "Be" and he was.
[The process of procreation goes on - “IS”. Kun fayakoon = The moment Allah decrees a thing, it starts happening]
3:60. The truth is from your Rabb, so do not be of those who doubt.
