Bu sura ichidagi eng uzun oyat-parcha. U Allohning yagonaligi masalasini bir necha jihatdan yoritadi, avvalo mo‘minning yer yuzidagi barcha kuch-qudratlarga nisbatan tutadigan munosabati haqida so‘z yuritadi: u faqat yagona haqiqiy qudratga tayanadi va boshqa narsalarga unchalik ahamiyat bermaydi.

This is the longest passage in the sūrah. It tackles the issue of God’s oneness from several angles, starting with a statement about the attitude a believer adopts towards all earthly powers, relying only on the one true power, caring little for anything else.

Shunday qilib, u barcha bunday xayoliy kuchlarga e'tibor bermaydi va o‘zi bilan bahslashuvchilar orasida hukm qilish Allohga emas, balki Xudoga ishonadi. U o‘z yo‘lidan qat'iy va taqdiriga ishonch bilan yuradi.

Therefore, he disregards all such imaginary forces, trusting to God’s judgement between him and those who dispute with him. He goes along his way firm and reassured about his destiny.

Bundan keyin Allohning Elchisining vazifasi va mas'uliyati haqida aniq bayon keladi. Unga ko'ra, u boshqalar uchun javobgar emas — ular ilohiy hidoyatga ergashsinlar yoki adashsinlar, bu ularning o'z ixtiyoridir. Barcha holatlarda ular ustidan kuch-qudrat faqat Allohga tegishlidir. Ularning Uning huzurida shafoat qiladigan hech kimi yo'q, chunki shafoat butunlay Allohning Zotiga xosdir. Osmonlar va yerning mulki Unikidir va barcha yo'llar oxir-oqibat Unga olib boradi.

This is followed by a clear statement about the role and responsibility of God’s Messenger, making it clear that he is not responsible for others, whether they choose to follow divine guidance or go astray. It is God who has power over them in all situations. They have no one to intercede with Him, for it is to God alone that all intercession belongs. His is the kingdom of the heavens and earth, and with Him all journeys end.

Сура кейин мушриклар Аллоҳнинг ягоналиги зикр қилинганида қалблари сиқилиб кетишини, ширк ҳақида гап кетганида эса хурсанд бўлишларини баён қилади. Шундан сўнг Пайғамбарга Аллоҳнинг ягоналигини энг равшан сўзлар билан эълон қилиш, мушрикларни эса Аллоҳга ҳавола қилиш буюрилади. Улар агар уларнинг ўқларидан (ҳисобидан) қабул қилинса, ер юзидаги барча нарсани ва яна шунинг икки баробарини бериш учун ҳам хурсандлик билан тайёр бўлишларини таъкидлайди. Улар Аллоҳ улар билан қандай муомала қилиши мумкинлигини англаганларида айнан шундай ҳолатга тушишади.

The sūrah then describes how the idolaters feel depressed when God’s oneness is mentioned, while they delight when idolatry is discussed. This is followed by an invitation to the Prophet to declare God’s oneness in the clearest of terms, leaving the idolaters to God. It describes how they will gladly give all that the earth contains, and twice as much, if only it will he accepted from them. This is how they feel once they realize how God may deal with them.

Xudo o'z bandasiga yetarli emasmi? Holbuki, ular seni Undan boshqalar bilan qo'rqitmoqchi bo'ladilar. Kimni Xudo adashtirsa, unga hech qanday hidoyat beruvchi bo'lmas. Kimni Xudo hidoyatga boshlasa, uni hech kim adashtira olmas. Xudo qudratli, qasos oluvchi emasmi? Agar ulardan: "Osmonlarni va yerni kim yaratgan?" deb so'rasang, albatta: "Xudo", deb javob beradilar. De: "Endi o'ylab ko'ringlar: Xudodan tashqari sig'inadigan narsalaringiz, agar Xudo menga biror zarar yetkazishni xohlasa, uning zararini qaytara olarmidi? Yoki agar Xudo menga rahmat qilishni istasa, uning rahmatini to'xtata olarmidilar?" De: "Menga Xudo yetarli..."

Is not God sufficient for His servant? Yet they would try to frighten you with those who are inferior to Him. He whom God lets go astray can never find any guide; whereas he whom God guides aright can never be led astray. Is God not mighty, capable of inflicting retribution? If you ask them who created the heavens and the earth, they will answer: ‘God.’ Say: ‘Consider these beings you invoke beside Him: if God wills harm to befall me, could they remove the harm He has inflicted? Or, if He wills that mercy should be bestowed on me, could they withhold His mercy?’ Say:

"Menga Alloh kifoya: Unga ishonish lozim bo'lganlar, Unga tayansinlar."

‘God is enough for me: In Him place their trust those who have a trust to place.’ Say:

Ey qavmim! Qo‘lingizdan kelgan barcha ishni qiling, men ham qo‘limdan kelganini qilaman. Kimga xo‘rlovchi azob kelishini, kim esa uzoq davom etadigan azobga uchrashini albatta bilib olasiz.” (36-40-oyatlar)

My people! Do all that may be in your power, and I will do what I can. You shall come to know who will be visited with humiliating suffering and who shall be smitten by long-lasting suffering.’ (Verses 36-40)

Bu besh oyat iymon mantiqini mujassam etadi: sodda, aniq, kuchli va chuqur.

These five verses epitomize the logic of faith: simple, clear, forceful and profound.

Shunday edi Payg'ambarning ﷺ qalbida, va shunday bo'lishi kerak har bir qalbda, kim biror maqsadni targ'ib qilsa. Bu oyatlar o'sha yo'lni ifodalaydi, ya'ni mo''min kishi ergashishi lozim bo'lgan chiziqni. Ular uning aniq va to'g'ri yo'lida borayotganda unga nur beradi.

Thus it was in the Prophet’s heart, and thus it should be in every heart that advocates a cause. These verses represent the line that such a believer should follow. They provide his light as he goes along his clear and straight way.

Rivoyat qilinishicha, bu oyatlar kofirlarning Payg'ambarni qo'rqitish maqsadida nozil bo'lgan: ular uni, u haqorat bilan tilga olgan xudolari unga albatta zarar yetkazishini aytib ogohlantirgan. Agar u bundan voz kechmasa, xudolari unga ko'p bolalarni keltirishini aytishgan. Ammo bu oyatlarning ahamiyati bundan ancha kengroqdir. Ular haqiqat da'vogori bilan unga qarshi turgan barcha kuchlar o'rtasidagi kurashning haqiqiy mohiyatini bayon etadi. Shuningdek, mo'minning bu kuchlarga ularning haqiqiy o'lchovini berayotganda his qiladigan ishonch va xotirjamligini ko'rsatadi.

Vaziyatning haqiqati shunday: Xudoning elchilari va ularga qarshi chiqadigan barcha dunyoviy kuchlar o‘rtasidagi munosabat ana shunday. Savol shundan iborat: ularning xabari nima va ular o‘zlarini inkor etuvchilarga nisbatan qanday munosabatda bo‘lishlari kerak?

Such is the reality of the situation between God’s messengers and all earthly forces opposing them. The question then is what is their message, and how should they react towards those who deny them?

Biz senga bu Kitobni yuqoridan nozil qildik, insonlar uchun haqiqatni bayon etuvchi holda.

We have bestowed on you this book from on high, setting out the truth for mankind.

Kimki unga yo‘l ko‘rsatilsa, u o‘z foydasiga yo‘l ko‘rsatiladi, kimki adashsa, u o‘z zararigacha adashadi. Sen ularga vakil emassan. Alloh jonlarni o‘lganlarida, tirik bo‘lganlarning jonlarini esa uxlaganlarida oladi. O‘limi hukm qilingan kishilarning jonini O‘zida saqlab qoladi, boshqalarini esa belgilangan muddatgacha qaytarib yuboradi. Bularning barchasida fikr yuritadigan kishilar uchun ibratlar bor. Ular Alloh o‘rniga shafoatchilar tanlab olganmilar? Ayt: «Ular hech narsaga qodir bo‘lmasalar ham, aql ham yuritmasalar ham-mi?» Ayt: «Shafoatning barchasi faqat Allohga tegishlidir. Osmonlar va yerning mulki Uning qo‘lidadir. So‘ngra Unga qaytarilasizlar».

Whoever follows its guidance does so for his own good, and whoever goes astray shall do so at his own peril. You are not responsible for them. God takes away people’s souls upon their death, and the souls of the living during their sleep. He keeps with Him the souls of those whose death He has ordained and sends back the others until their appointed time. In all this there are signs for people who reflect. Have they chosen others besides God to intercede for them? Say: ‘Why, even though they have no power over anything and no understanding?’ Say: All intercession belongs to God alone. His alone is the dominion over the heavens and the earth; and to Him you will all in the end return.’ (Verses 41-44)

“Biz bu Kitobni sizga haqni bayon etuvchi qilib, odamlar uchun nozil qildik.” (41-oyat) Haq — bu Kitobning mohiyatidir: u bayon etgan qonunda ham, uning tuzumida ham aniq namoyon bo‘ladi. Olam aynan shu haqqa asoslanib turadi; bu haq ushbu Kitobda bayon etilgan inson hayoti qonunlarini koinot tuzumi bilan bog‘laydi. Endi bu haq odamlarga berildi, ular unga muvofiq yashashlari uchun yo‘l-yo‘riq bo‘ladi. Ey Payg‘ambar, siz uni ularga yetkazuvchi vositasiz, xolos. Ular nimani xohlashlari va unga qanday munosabatda bo‘lishlari o‘zlariga bog‘liq. Ularning har biri hidoyatni yoki adashishni tanlashi mumkin va har biri o‘z taqdirini o‘zi belgilaydi. Ular nima tanlashlari uchun sizga hech qanday mas’uliyat yuklanmaydi: “Kim uning hidoyatiga ergashsa, o‘z foydasi uchun ergashadi; kim adashsa, o‘z zarariga adashadi. Siz ularga vakil emassiz.” (41-oyat)

Sura shundan so‘ng ularning hisob-kitob uchun qaytganlaridagi ayanchli holatini ko‘rsatadi:

The sūrah then shows their miserable state when they return for judgement:

Agar zolimlar yer yuzidagi barcha narsaga ega bo‘lsalar va yana shuncha ko‘pini ham bo‘lsa, Qiyomat kunidagi dahshatli azobdan qutulish uchun hammasini fidya sifatida berishga tayyor bo‘lishardi. Chunki Alloh ular hisobga olmagan narsani ularga ko‘rsatadi. Ular qilgan yomon ishlari ularga oshkor bo‘ladi va ular masxara qilib yurgan narsa ularni o‘rab oladi.

If the wrongdoers possessed all that is on earth, and twice as much, they would surely offer it all as ransom from the awful suffering on the Day of Resurrection. For God will have made obvious to them something they have never reckoned with. Obvious to them will have become the evil of what they had done; and they will be overwhelmed by that which they used to deride. (Verses 47-48)

Ayat bu so'z ichida yashirin tahdid qiladi, bu so'z esa zolimlar deb atalgan, ya'ni Allohga biror narsani, qanday turdagi bo'lmasin, sherik keltiradigan barcha kishilarning qalbiga qo'rquv soladi. Agar o'sha kishilar yer yuzidagi hamma narsaga, shu jumladan ular katta qadr beradigan va Islomni qabul qilsalar yo'qotib qo'yishdan qo'rqadigan narsalarning hammasiga ega bo'lsalar, hatto ikki barobar ko'piga ega bo'lsalar ham, Qiyomat kuni o'z ko'zlari bilan ko'radigan dahshatli azobdan qutulish uchun hammasini ixtiyoriy ravishda berishga tayyor bo'lishadi. Bunga yana bir xuddi shunday qo'rqinchli yashirin tahdid qo'shiladi: "Allohdan ular o'ylamagan narsalar ularga zohir bo'lur." (47-ayat) Surada ularga nima zohir bo'lishi aniq ko'rsatilmagan, lekin bu juda dahshatli, qo'rqinchli narsa ekani aniq tushuniladi. U Allohdan keladi va U ularga hech kutmagan narsasini ko'rsatadi.

The verse makes an implicit threat within a statement that strikes fear into the hearts of those described as ‘wrongdoers’, which refers to everyone who associates partners, of any type, with God. If those people had in their possession ‘all that is on earth,’ including everything to which they attach high value and fear to lose should they accept Islam, indeed, if they had ‘twice as much’, they would willingly offer it all just to be spared the awful suffering they will see with their own eyes on the Day of Resurrection. Added to this is another implicit threat that is equally fearful: “For God will have made obvious to them something they have never reckoned with.” (Verse 47) The sūrah does not specify what will become obvious to them, but it is clearly understood that it is terrible, to be feared. It comes from God, and He shows them what they could never have expected.

{Ular qilgan amallarining yomonligi ularga ayon bo'lib qoladi va ular masxara qilib kelgan narsa ularni o'rab oladi.} (48-oyat) Bu ularning ahvolini yanada og'irlashtiradi, chunki ular o'z amallarining qanchalik yomon ekanini o'z ko'zlari bilan ko'radilar va o'zlari masxara va kulgi qilib kelgan ogohlantirishlarga botib qoladilar.
