Ushbu qisqa parcha, uch oyatdan iborat bo‘lib, kuchli ohang bilan ajralib turadi. U Xudolikning asosiy xususiyatlarini bayon etish bilan boshlanadi hamda hidoyatdan yuz o‘girib, yana kufrga qaytib ketganlarni va Xudoga sherik keltirganlarni qoralaydi. Parchada butunlay adashgan, hayron bo‘lgan, qayerga yo‘naishni bilmay qolgan inson tasvirlanadi va bu imonga kelgandan keyin Xudodan yuz o‘girishning ma’nosini yanada aniq ko‘rsatadi. Shundan so‘ng parcha Xudoning hidoyatigina haqiqiy hidoyat ekanligini ta’kidlaydi. Parcha Xudoning mutlaq hokimiyati va yaratilgan barcha narsalar ustidan to‘liq vakolatiga ishora qilgan holda yuksak ohangda yakunlanadi. Qiyomat kunida hatto eng qattiq dahriylar ham Uning mutlaq hokimiyatida shubha qila olmaydi va barcha mavjudot Unga qaytariladi.

This short passage of three verses is characterized by a powerful rhythm. It begins with a statement of the essential characteristics of Godhead and a denouncement of those who turn away from guidance to sink back into disbelief and their associating partners with God. It portrays a person who is totally lost, bewildered, not knowing where to turn, and this emphasizes the meaning of turning away from faith after having believed in God. The passage then emphasizes that God’s guidance is the only true guidance. It ends on a high note as it speaks of God’s total sovereignty and His complete authority over all creation. On the Day of Resurrection, even the most hardened atheists cannot entertain any doubt about His complete sovereignty, and then to Him all creation returns.

Biz Allohdan o‘zga, bizga na foyda, na zarar keltira oladigan narsalarga iltijo qilaylikmi va Alloh bizni hidoyatga boshlaganidan keyin, yer yuzida shaytonlar aldab adashtirgan, sarson-sargardon bo‘lib yurgan kishi kabi orqamizga qaytaylikmi? Holbuki, uning «Bizga kel!» deb chaqiruvchi do‘stlari bor. Ayt: «Albatta, Allohning hidoyati — yagona hidoyatdir. Bizga olamlar Robbisiga bo‘ysunishimiz buyurilgan».

Say: Shall we invoke, instead of God, something that can neither benefit nor harm us, and shall we turn back on our heels after God has given us guidance, like one whom the satans have lured away in the land, blunders along perplexed. Yet he has companions who call out to him, “Come to us for guidance.” Say: In truth, God’s guidance is the only guidance. We are commanded to surrender ourselves to the Lord of all the worlds.” (Verse 71)

Passage ko‘rsatma bilan boshlanadi: «Ayting». Bu so‘z ushbu surada tez-tez ishlatiladi va hokimiyat to‘liq Allohga tegishli ekanini, Payg‘ambar Muhammad ﷺ esa xabarni yetkazish va uni rad etishdan ogohlantirish uchun tanlangan zot ekanini tan olishni ifodalaydi. Bu so‘z xabarning jiddiyligini his qildirar ekan, shuni ham anglaymizki, Payg‘ambar ﷺ faqat o‘ziga buyurilganini bajaradi. U buyruqlarini to‘liq sadoqat bilan amalga oshiradi.

The passage starts with the instruction, `Say’. This is used often in this sūrah to formulate a recognition that all authority belongs to God and that the Prophet Muĥammad (peace be upon him) is the one chosen to convey a message and warn people against its rejection. As it imparts a feeling of the seriousness of the message, we are also made to understand that the Prophet does no more than what he is bidden. He implements his instructions with complete dedication.

“Say: Shall we invoke, instead of God, something that can neither benefit nor harm us?” (Verse 71) This is an order to the Prophet ﷺ to tell the unbelievers that what they do is to invoke and appeal to beings other than God, allowing those beings to lead them where they please, when they cannot actually benefit or harm them in any way. This is true, whether those beings whom they invoke are idols of stone, trees, spirits, angels, devils or other human beings. They only have one quality in common, namely, that they can bring no benefit and cause no harm. Every movement in the universe occurs by God’s will. Hence, what God does not sanction cannot take place.

Xudo insonga tabiat qonunlarining bir qismini, uning kuchlari va imkoniyatlarini anglash va qadrlash qobiliyatini berdi, shunda inson o'ziga yuklangan vazifani — yerni obod qilish hamda inson hayoti va tamaddunini rivojlantirishni bajarishda ulardan foydalana olsin.

God has given man the ability to recognize and appreciate some of the laws of nature, its forces and potentials so that he may be able to use these in discharging the task assigned to him of building the earth and promoting human life and civilization.

Lekin Alloh taolo insonga olamning mutlaq haqiqatlarining mohiyatiga yetish yoki uning idrokidan tashqarida bo‘lgan dunyoni anglash qobiliyatini bermagan. Bu dunyoga uning o‘z aql va ruhining faoliyati, hatto o‘z a’zolarining ishlashi va tanasining tartib bilan, muayyan tizim va alohida usulda to‘g‘ri faoliyat yuritishini ta’minlovchi sabablar ham kiradi.

But man has not been granted by God the ability to get to the core of the absolute truths of the universe or to fathom the world which lies beyond the reach of his perceptions. This world includes the workings of his own mind and soul, and even the workings of his own organs and the causes which enable his body to function properly, according to a definite system and a particular fashion.

Shuning uchun inson o‘z tabiatiga oid barcha masalalarda, jumladan, iymon, axloq, qadriyatlar va me’yorlar, tizimlar va qonunlarda ilohiy hidoyatga muhtoj. Faqat shunday hidoyat bilan inson hayotini o‘z lozim darajasida tartibga sola oladi. Inson Allohning hidoyatini qabul qilganda, o‘zini to‘g‘ri yo‘lda topadi, chunki “Allohning hidoyati yagona hidoyatdir”. Inson Allohning hidoyatini butunlay tark etganda yoki uni boshqa narsa bilan almashtirish maqsadida qisman chetga chiqqanda, yo‘lini yo‘qotadi. Buning sababi shundaki, Allohning hidoyatiga zid bo‘lgan har qanday narsa adashish va zarar demakdir. Bundan uchinchi yo‘l yo‘q: “Haqdan keyin adashuvdan boshqa nima bor?” (10:32)

Hence, man is in need of divine guidance concerning everything that relates to his own nature, including faith, morals, values and standards, systems and laws. Only with such guidance can man regulate his life as it should be regulated. Whenever man adopts God’s guidance, he finds himself following the right track, because “God’s guidance is the only guidance”. Whenever man abandons God’s guidance completely or deviates from it partially in order to replace it with something else, he loses his way. This is due to the fact that whatever is in conflict with God’s guidance represents error and loss. There is simply no third cause: “What is in conflict with the truth other than error.” (10: 32)
