19. O People of the Scripture! Now hath Our Messenger
come unto you to make things plain unto you after an interval (of cessation)
of the messengers, lest ye should say: There came not unto us a messenger of
cheer nor any warner. Now hath a Messenger of cheer and a warner come unto
you. And Allah is
Able to do all things.

Commentary
Fatratun – {to
be lazy, to become loose, an interval (of cessation)}, fatuur is also from it,
which means “deficiency, reduction, loss”. If something has been happening
constantly, and then it has been stopped and its act of continuing has been
suspended, this process of suspension and stoppage is called fatarah.
And the period, during which it remained suspended, will be called “The Time
of Fataratun”. No Messenger/Prophet had come for nearly six hundred
year, after the Prophet Jesus (peace be upon Him), and coming of the
Prophets/Messengers was ceased. It is called Fataratun. Here it has been
described that “The Messenger of the end times, that is to say; Muhammad
(grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him), Last Messenger of Allah Almighty has
come now unto you after an interval (of cessation) of the messengers. Believe
in Him and obey Him (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him)!
It has been described in this
verse, “Our Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him) has come
unto you for the purpose, “to tell about the good news to the good people and
to warn the evildoers about their punishment”. According to Arabic language, Bashiir is the Cheer and Naziir is the Warner.
Therefore, every Messenger’s title is Bashiir and Naziir (peace be upon
Them). This verse discloses that in future; none can say, “No Bashiir (Cheer) and Naziir (Warner) came
towards us”, because this Last Messenger of Allah Almighty,
Muhammad (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him) has come in the world,
Who is Bashiir and Naziir also.
Neither the world can be arranged, nor the Hereafter without obeying Him
(grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him).
At the end, the People of the
Scripture have been threatened, “Remember! Allah is Able to do
all things. If you will not believe, He can bring into being more Believers of
His religion, emitting you and can deprive you of His Mercy due to your wicked
deeds”.
