The Clear Qur'anic Exegesis (13)

Muhammad Khayr Ramadan Yusuf

Surat Al Baqarah (37-39)

{ فَتَلَقَّى آدَمُ مِنْ رَبِّهِ كَلِمَاتٍ فَتَابَ عَلَيْهِ إِنَّهُ هُوَ التَّوَّابُ الرَّحِيمُ } [البقرة: 37]

37- Adam knew his fault and felt sorrow. So, he sought forgiveness from his Lord for what he had done and his Lord accepted his repentance because He is Oft-Forgiving to His Believing Servants.


{قُلْنَا اهْبِطُوا مِنْهَا جَمِيعًا فَإِمَّا يَأْتِيَنَّكُمْ مِنِّي هُدَىً فَمَنْ تَبِعَ هُدَايَ فَلاَ خَوْفٌ عَلَيهِمْ وَلاَ هُمْ يَحْزَنُونَ } [البقرة: 38]


38- Another warning was given to Adam and his offspring in order not to fall into the same sin again: Get down to the earth. When I send you prophets, messengers, and Scriptures so that you may be guided, hold them firmly and you shall not go astray. You shall not be miserable in the Hereafter, you shall not be sorry for what you have missed, and you shall not fear what will happen on the Day of Recompense.

{ وَالَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا وَكَذَّبُوا بِآيَاتِنَا أُولَئِكَ أَصْحَابُ النَّارِ هُمْ فِيهَا خَالِدُونَ } [البقرة: 39]
39 – As for those who disbelieved and denied Our Prophets and Scriptures, they are the dwellers of Hell in which they will abide forever.
