Commentary

آیت 14 { خَلَقَ الْاِنْسَانَ مِنْ صَلْصَالٍ کَالْفَخَّارِ۔ } ”اس نے پیدا کیا انسان کو ٹھیکرے کی طرح کھنکھناتی ہوئی مٹی سے۔“ حضرت آدم علیہ السلام کی تخلیق کے حوالے سے سورة الحجر کے تیسرے رکوع میں تین مرتبہ { صَلْصَالٍ مِّنْ حَمَاٍ مَّسْنُوْنٍ 4 } کے الفاظ آئے ہیں۔ اس سے مراد ایسا گارا ہے جس میں سڑاند پیدا ہوچکی ہو ‘ یعنی سنا ہوا گارا۔ ایسا گارا خشک ہونے پر سخت ہوجاتا ہے اور ٹھوکر لگنے سے کھنکنے لگتا ہے۔ یہاں پر صَلْصَالٍ کَالْفَخَّارِسے ایسا ہی سوکھا ہوا گارا مراد ہے ‘ یعنی ٹھیکرے کی طرح کھنکھناتا ہوا گارا۔
