    Commentary

Ya-‘isa – (despaired), this word is from yaas, which means “hopeless and despair”. It aims that now; they have become hopeless from the Muslims that they would renegade from Islam and return to their parent religion. 

Laa  takh-shaw-hum – (do not fear them). It has been derived from the word Khashyah, which means ‘fear, dread, terror, fright and awe’. From it, the word wakh-shawn has come out, which means “Fear Me”. Alphabet letter “n” at the end of the word wakh-shawn discloses that actually this word was wakh-shawNii. It shows that the letter “ii” has been deleted but the meaning “Me” would remain the same.

‘Uz-turra – being distressed, it is from ‘iztaraar, which means ‘to be helpless’. Having any determined necessity to be fulfilled without further delay is called ‘iztaraar. 

Makh-masatin  - (hunger), another word for hunger in Arabic language is “Juuu’ “.Mutajaa-nifin – this word is from janaf, which means ‘to bow, to submit, to agree, to associate with’. Here it aims, “A person, who inclines towards a side with his will”.

It has been described in this verse that the disbelievers used to hope, “when the Muslims would observe that they have to do many works of hard nature, many things have been forbidden for them from eating or drinking, of which they were habitual, and worship and Jihad have been prescribed for them, then certainly; they would renegade from Islam and adopt their previous religion, and they will become like us”. Today, this hope of theirs has broken. They will never be able to harm Islam. It is the Decision of God Almighty.

At that time, the Muslims were passing satisfied life. Makkah had been conquered. The entire Arab had embraced Islam. It had become easy to obey the Law. The Rules had been established for every matter/problem. Therefore, during the Last Hajj, it was proclaimed in the Field of Arafat very clearly, “This day are those who disbelieve in despair of (ever harming) your religion”. Now they will never be able to tempt the Muslims towards disbelief. The Muslims should forget their fear from their hearts. They should fear Allah Almighty only. He commanded, “This Day have perfected your religion for you and completed My Favour unto you, and have chosen for you as Religion AL-ISLAM”. It has proper solution of your every difficulty and guidance in accordance with every occasion.  

After that, Muslims are being guided that if they are forced by hunger and they feel dying without food, then they can take some food from the forbidden, only such quantity, with which they may live. It will not be sin for them.
