Translation and commentary

Tafheem-ul-Quran

قسم ہے بارش برسانے والے آسمان کی1

Footnotes (the author's commentary)

  1. آسمان کے لیے ذات الرجع کے الفاظ استعمال کیے گئے ہیں۔ رَجع کے لُغوی معنی تو پلٹنے کے ہیں، مگر مجاز اً عربی زبان میں یہ لفظ بارش کے لیے استعمال کیا جاتا ہے، کیونکہ وہ بس ایک ہی دفعہ بر س کر نہیں رہ جاتی بلکہ بار بار اپنے موسم میں اور کبھی خلافِ موسم پلٹ پلٹ کرآتی ہے اور وقتاً فوقتاً برستی رہتی ہے۔ ایک اور درجہ بارش کو رجع کہنے کی یہ بھی ہے کہ زمین کے سمندروں سے پانی بھاپ بن کر اٹھتا ہے اور پھر پلٹ کر زمین ہی پر برستا ہے۔

آیت 8{ اِنَّہٗ عَلٰی رَجْعِہٖ لَقَادِرٌ۔ } ”یقینا وہ اسے لوٹانے پر بھی قادر ہے۔“ جس اللہ نے پانی کی ایک بوند سے انسان کی تخلیق کی ہے وہ یقینا اس پر بھی قادر ہے کہ جب چاہے اسے اپنے پاس واپس بلا لے۔ اور یقینا وہ اس کے مرنے کے بعد اسے دوبارہ زندہ کردینے پر بھی قدرت رکھتا ہے۔
