Verse
–145 of 165, Section – 18 of 20 (Part - 8)
BisMIllaahir-Rahmaanir-Rahiim
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
|
Say: I find not in that which is revealed unto Me aught prohibited to
an eater that he eat thereof, except it be carrion, or blood poured forth, or
swine-flesh - for that verily is unclean - or the abomination which was
immolated to the name of other than Allah. But whoso is compelled (thereto),
neither craving nor transgressing, (for him) lo! Thy Lord is Forgiving,
Merciful.

Lesson
Fisqun – (the abomination,
against the Law and evil deeds), actually it means “going beyond the law and
evildoing. Faasiq means evildoer, sinful. Here fisqan aims – that animal, which has been
slaughtered invalidly.
‘U-hilla – (immolated,
sacrificed, proclaimed and called aloud upon), it is past passive voice tense,
origin of which is ‘ahlaal and made from – h-l-l, which means “to
manifest, to appear”. The word hilaal has been derived from it, which
means “the moon of the first night, which appears after three moon-less nights)”.
‘Ahlaal means “to call aloud and openly, to proclaim”. It aims “such
animal, which either has been nominated to the name of any other than Allah or
the name of any other than Allah was called aloud at the time of its sacrifice”.
Baagin – (the disobedient), actually
this word is baaghii, which has been derived from the word baghaawat.
Bagaawat means “to disobey the order of someone. Here it aims “the
disobedient of Allah Almighty”.
‘Aadin – Actually this word
is ‘Aadii, which is made from ‘adwaan. It means “to go out of bounds
and to transgress”
Allah Almighty commands
His Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him) that He should
say the people: You have no authority to fix anything legitimate or forbidden
for food. It is in the Power of Allah Almighty to appoint anything lawful or
unlawful. The things, which have been revealed unto Me (grace, glory, blessings
and peace be upon Him) that those cannot be eaten, some of those are, as under:
· The carrion (meat of
any dead animal)
· The blood poured forth
(flowing blood)
· The swine-flesh,
because that verily is unclean
· The abomination which
(the animal) is immolated to the name of any other than Allah Almighty i.e. any
spiritual guide, idols or gods.
Four forbidden things
were discussed in the first Section of Chapter (Surah) ‘Al-Maa-‘idah.
It is their detail.
