Commentary

آیت 12 { اَللّٰہُ الَّذِیْ سَخَّرَ لَکُمُ الْبَحْرَ لِتَجْرِیَ الْفُلْکُ فِیْہِ بِاَمْرِہٖ } ”اللہ ہی ہے جس نے مسخر کردیا تمہارے لیے سمندر کو تاکہ اس میں کشتیاں چلیں اس کے حکم سے“ { وَلِتَبْتَغُوْا مِنْ فَضْلِہٖ وَلَعَلَّکُمْ تَشْکُرُوْنَ } ”تاکہ تم تلاش کرو اس کا فضل اور تاکہ تم شکر ادا کرو۔“ اللہ کا فضل تلاش کرنے سے یہاں تجارت کے ذریعے روزی تلاش کرنا مراد ہے ‘ جبکہ کشتیاں اور جہاز سمندروں اور دریائوں میں سامانِ تجارت کی نقل و حمل کا بہت بڑا ذریعہ ہیں۔
