تِلْكَ أُمَّةٌ قَدْ خَلَتْ ۖ لَهَا مَا كَسَبَتْ وَلَكُمْ مَا كَسَبْتُمْ ۖ وَلَا تُسْأَلُونَ عَمَّا كَانُوا يَعْمَلُونَ

তেওঁলোক আছিল এটা জাতি, যিসকল অতীত হৈ গৈছে। তেওঁলোকে যি অৰ্জন কৰিছে সেয়া তেওঁলোকৰ বাবে, আৰু তোমালোকে যি অৰ্জন কৰিছা সেয়া তোমালোকৰ বাবে; আৰু তেওঁলোকে যি কৰিছিল সেই সম্পৰ্কে তোমালোকক প্ৰশ্ন কৰা নহ’ব।

[2:141] That (Til'ka) was a nation (Ummatun) which had already (Qad') passed (Khalat'). It will have 

(Lahaa) what (Maa) it earned (Kasabat'), and (Wa) you will have (Lakum) what (Maa) you have earned 

(Kasab'tum'). And (Wa) you will not (Laa) be questioned (Tus'aluuna) about what (Åmmaa) they used to 

(Kaanu') do (Ya'maluun). 2

.

📍Verse/Note:

141 At any rate, if despite what has been explained to them fully, they remain adamant that 

their forbears had taught what they believe, this does not change the truth. As stated earlier, their 

forefathers will answer for their deeds and they will have to answer for theirs.

۞ سَيَقُولُ السُّفَهَاءُ مِنَ النَّاسِ مَا وَلَّاهُمْ عَنْ قِبْلَتِهِمُ الَّتِي كَانُوا عَلَيْهَا ۚ قُلْ لِلَّهِ الْمَشْرِقُ وَالْمَغْرِبُ ۚ يَهْدِي مَنْ يَشَاءُ إِلَىٰ صِرَاطٍ مُسْتَقِيمٍ

মানুহৰ মাজৰ পৰা নিৰ্বোধসকলে অনতিপলমে ক’ব যে, ‘ইমান দিনে সিহঁতে যি কিবলাৰ অনুসৰণ কৰি আহিছিল তাৰ পৰা কিহে সিহঁতক বিমুখ কৰালে? কোৱা, ‘পূৱ আৰু পশ্চিম আল্লাহৰেই। তেওঁ যাক ইচ্ছা সৰল পথৰ হিদায়ত প্ৰদান কৰে’।

.

[2:142] The foolish (Es'Safahaau) among (Mina) the people (En'Naasi) will say (Sa Yaquulu), "What (Maa)

has turned them away (Wallaa-hum') from (Ån) their place of prayer

(📍10:87) (Qib'lati-himu) at (Ålai'ha)

which (Ellatii) they were (Kaanu)?" Say (Qul): "To GOD belongs (Lillahi) the east (Mash'riqu) and the west

(📍2:115) (Mag'ribu); HE guides (Yah'dii) whomever (Man) HE wills (Yashaau) to (ilaa) a straight (Mus'taqiim)

path (Siraatin)." 

.

📍Verse/Note-1

142 The people (Jews) ask as to why did the Muslims forsake Jerusalem as Qibla and instead 

made K aba as their Qibla when the earlier Ahl-ul-Kit ab had Jerusalem as their Qibla. 

This question arises from lack of knowledge otherwise the matter is not difficult to 

comprehend. Jerusalem is the national centre of Bani-Isr ael and Islam is a call to all humanity. It is 

obvious that the centre of a Universal Order should be open to the entire world and not be confined 

to a particular nation or race. For this purpose, Allah has guided the Jama at-ul-Momineen towards 

the K aba, which is the straight path.(pz)

📍Note-3

‘They’ = Jews. Qiblah = Center of devotion = Symbol of uniform Ideology = Center for the unity of mankind = Deen = System of Life. The Children of Israel have considered Jerusalem as their Center of devotion but the Jews always believed in a tribal god and, hence, a tribal center. But God is the Lord of all humanity. He makes no distinction between Jews and Gentiles. And the Qur’an invites all mankind to become one community. His Final Message is not confined to a particular tribe, nation or group of people. Ka’bah, the first House of Monotheism, was erected by Abraham. It has always been the Qiblahfor all humanity. 2:213, 3:96, 4:170, 6:91, 7:158, 10:19, 12:104, 21:107, 22:49, 34:28, 38:87, 57:25, 114:1.

وَكَذَٰلِكَ جَعَلْنَاكُمْ أُمَّةً وَسَطًا لِتَكُونُوا شُهَدَاءَ عَلَى النَّاسِ وَيَكُونَ الرَّسُولُ عَلَيْكُمْ شَهِيدًا ۗ وَمَا جَعَلْنَا الْقِبْلَةَ الَّتِي كُنْتَ عَلَيْهَا إِلَّا لِنَعْلَمَ مَنْ يَتَّبِعُ الرَّسُولَ مِمَّنْ يَنْقَلِبُ عَلَىٰ عَقِبَيْهِ ۚ وَإِنْ كَانَتْ لَكَبِيرَةً إِلَّا عَلَى الَّذِينَ هَدَى اللَّهُ ۗ وَمَا كَانَ اللَّهُ لِيُضِيعَ إِيمَانَكُمْ ۚ إِنَّ اللَّهَ بِالنَّاسِ لَرَءُوفٌ رَحِيمٌ

[2:143] And (Wa) thus (Kazaalika) have We made you (p) (Jaål'naa-kum') a central (Wasatoan) nation 

(Ummatan) so that (Li) you may be (Takuunu') witnesses (Shuhadaa'a) over (Ålaa) the people (En'Naasi), and 

(Wa) the Messenger (Er'Rasuulu) will be a witness (Shahiidan) over you (Ålai'kum'). And (Wa) We did not 

(Maa) assign (Jaål'naa) the place of prayer (El'Qib'lata) at (Ålai'haa) which (Ellatii) you (s) are (Kunta) except 

(illa) that (Li) We may find out (Na'lama) who (Man) would follow (Yattabiu) the Messenger (Er'Rasuula)

from one who (Mimman) would turn back (Yanqalibu) on (Ålaa) his heels (Åqibai'hi). And (Wa) it is (Kaanat' 

La) not (In) important (Kabiiratan) except (illa) for (Ålaa) those whom (Ellaziina) GOD has guided (Hadaa-

llahu). And (Wa) GOD (Ellahu) is (Kaana) not (Maa) to (Li) waste (Yudiiå) your faith (iimaana-kum'); indeed, 

GOD (Innallaha) is (La) to (Bi) the people (En'Naasi), Kind (Ra'uufun) and Merciful (Rahiim).

.

📍Verse/Note-1

143 Therefore, O Jama at-ul-Momineen! pay no heed to this question. Our objective is to 

make you a people with a universal outlook to be equidistant from all other peoples i.e. neither leaning towards any particular people nor estranged from another. Your responsibility is to keep a 

watch over the activities of other people of the world (to see that no nation is oppressing the other) 

and the responsibility of the Rasool (being the head of the Divinely-ordained System 3/109, 22/78) 

is to watch over your activities. 

 The objection raised by the Jews is the outcome of a conflict between two opposite 

mentalities; one given to examining a disputed point objectively and the other to dealing with it 

subjectively. On rational grounds it is obvious that a system established for the benefit of all 

humanity is decidedly better than one which has narrower i.e. tribal or racial objectives. The 

adoption of the K aba as the centre not of a particular people but of a Universal System constituted a 

concrete criterion whereby the two mentalities could be distinguished from each other. Subscribing 

to a Universal System rather than one based upon narrow tribal or racial affiliations and interests, is 

an uphill task but those who have the courage to take such a course are duly protected from the ill 

effects of destructive forces and provided adequate sources of nourishment. 

.

📍Note-2

Ummah = Community = A Community based on Divine Ideology. ‘Middle Community’ = Equidistant to all nations. ‘Turns about on his heels’ = Goes back to his old ways = Succumbs to traditional beliefs.  2:142,  4:88, 29:25.

قَدْ نَرَىٰ تَقَلُّبَ وَجْهِكَ فِي السَّمَاءِ ۖ فَلَنُوَلِّيَنَّكَ قِبْلَةً تَرْضَاهَا ۚ فَوَلِّ وَجْهَكَ شَطْرَ الْمَسْجِدِ الْحَرَامِ ۚ وَحَيْثُ مَا كُنْتُمْ فَوَلُّوا وُجُوهَكُمْ شَطْرَهُ ۗ وَإِنَّ الَّذِينَ أُوتُوا الْكِتَابَ لَيَعْلَمُونَ أَنَّهُ الْحَقُّ مِنْ رَبِّهِمْ ۗ وَمَا اللَّهُ بِغَافِلٍ عَمَّا يَعْمَلُونَ

নিশ্চয় আমি আকাশৰ ফালে তোমাৰ বাৰে বাৰে চাই থকাটো লক্ষ্য কৰিছো। এতেকে অৱশ্যে আমি তোমাক এনে কিবলাৰ ফালে ওভোতাই দিম যিটো তুমি পছন্দ কৰা। এতেকে তুমি মছজিদে হাৰামৰ ফালে মুখ কৰা; আৰু তোমালোকে য’তেই নাথাকা কিয় ইয়াৰ ফালেই তোমালোকৰ চেহেৰা ঘূৰাই লোৱা; আৰু নিশ্চয় যিসকলক কিতাব দিয়া হৈছে সিহঁতে নিশ্চিতভাৱে জানে যে, এইটো সিহঁতৰ প্ৰতিপালকৰ পৰা সত্য; আৰু সিহঁতে যি কৰে সেই সম্পৰ্কে আল্লাহ অমনোযাগী নহয়।

.

[2:144] We have (Qad') seen (Naraa) your face (s) (Waj'hi-ka) turning around (Taqalluba) toward (Fii) the 

sky (Samaai), so (Fa) We have (La) entrusted to you (Nuwalliyannaka) a place of prayer (Qib'latan) with 

which (-haa) you will be pleased (Tar'doa-); so (Fa) turn (Walli) your face (Waj'ha-ka) towards (Shat'ra) the 

Sacred Mosque (Mas'jidil' Haraami). And (Wa) wherever (Hai'thu Maa) you (p) may be (Kuntum'), thus (Fa)

turn (Wallu') your faces (Wujuuha-kum') towards it (Shat'ra-hu), so (Wa) that (Inna) those who (Ellaziina)

were given (Uutu') the Book (El'Kitaaba) will (La) know (Ya'lamuuna) that it (Annahu) is the truth (El'Haqqu)

from (Min) their LORD (Rabbi-him'). And (Wa) GOD (Ellahu) is not (Maa Bi) heedless (Gaafilin) of what 

(Åmmaa) they do (Ya'maluun). 

.

📍Verse/Note-1

144 We are also aware of your constant yearning that you should have possession of, and 

jurisdiction over the place (Makkah) which We have proclaimed to be the centre of Our system. 

This will certainly happen. What you need to do is to direct all your activities towards liberating the 

K aba from ungodly forces wherever you may be and whatever is your sphere of activity. 

The fact is that these Ahl-ul-Kitab know fully well that your call is based upon truth from 

Allah (since it was mentioned in their books) but they will continue to oppose it out of stubbornness 

and prejudice. We are aware of all that they do. 

.

📍Note-2

The verse is not commanding people to turn their faces, as usually misunderstood. See 2:177. Wajh = Face = Countenance = Whole being = Purpose. Qiblah = Direction = Center of devotion = Masjid of Security = Source of peace and security for all humanity = The Symbol of a uniform Ideology = Symbol of pure Monotheism = Source of the unity of mankind. Ka’bah has been the Center of devotion for all humanity ever since it was erected by Prophets Abraham and Ishmael. 2:142, 2:213, 3:96, 4:170, 6:91, 7:158, 10:19, 12:104, 21:107, 22:49, 34:28, 38:87, 57:25, 114:1

وَلَئِنْ أَتَيْتَ الَّذِينَ أُوتُوا الْكِتَابَ بِكُلِّ آيَةٍ مَا تَبِعُوا قِبْلَتَكَ ۚ وَمَا أَنْتَ بِتَابِعٍ قِبْلَتَهُمْ ۚ وَمَا بَعْضُهُمْ بِتَابِعٍ قِبْلَةَ بَعْضٍ ۚ وَلَئِنِ اتَّبَعْتَ أَهْوَاءَهُمْ مِنْ بَعْدِ مَا جَاءَكَ مِنَ الْعِلْمِ ۙ إِنَّكَ إِذًا لَمِنَ الظَّالِمِينَ

আৰু যিসকলক কিতাব প্ৰদান কৰা হৈছে, তুমি যদি সিহঁতৰ ওচৰত সকলো দলীল লৈ আহা তথাপিও সিহঁতে তোমাৰ কিবলাৰ অনুসৰণ নকৰিব; আৰু তুমিও সিহঁতৰ কিবলাৰ অনুসাৰী নহ’বা; আৰু সিহঁতেও পৰস্পৰৰ কিবলাৰ অনুসাৰী নহয়। তোমাৰ ওচৰত সত্য-জ্ঞান অহাৰ পিছতো যদি তুমি সিহঁতৰ প্ৰবৃত্তিৰ অনুসৰণ কৰা, তেন্তে নিশ্চয় তুমি যালিমসকলৰ অন্তৰ্ভূক্ত হ’বা।

.

[2:145] And (Wa) whether (Lain') you bring (Atai'ta Bi) every (Kulli) sign (Aayatin) to those who (Ellaziina)

were given (Uutu') the Book (El'Kitaaba), they would not (Maa) follow (Tabi'u) your place of prayer

(Qib'lata-ka), neither (Wamaa Bi) shall you (s) (An'ta) be a follower (Taabi'en) of their place of prayer

(Qib'lata-hum'), nor (Wamaa) would they be followers (Taabi'en) of each other's (Ba'du-hum Ba'din) place of 

prayer (Qib'lata). And (Wa) if (Laini) you follow (Ettaba'ta) their inclinations (Ah'waa'a-hum) after (Min 

Ba'di) what (Maa) has come to you (s) (Jaa'a-ka) of (Mina) the knowledge (El' ilmi)! Indeed, you (Innaka) in 

that case (Izan) would be among (Lamina) the transgressors (Ez'Zoalimiin).

.

📍Note:

Qiblah = Direction = Focal Point = It is the tangible but symbolic structure for unity of mankind. People honor the temples of their choice. They will recognize the Ka’bahas their own Qiblah when evolution of human civilization brings them to the right conclusion. 2:158, 3:97, 4:170, 6:84, 22:23. Zaalimeen = Oppressors = Those who hurt themselves or others = Those who choose to do wrong = Who displace something from its rightful place = Who relegate the truth = Violators of human rights = Misdirected = Those who prefer to live in the darkness of ignorance = Commonly translated as wrongdoers.

.

🌈২:১৪৬(Abuse of the Scripture: Selective Emphasis and Concealment).

الَّذِينَ آتَيْنَاهُمُ الْكِتَابَ يَعْرِفُونَهُ كَمَا يَعْرِفُونَ أَبْنَاءَهُمْ ۖ وَإِنَّ فَرِيقًا مِنْهُمْ لَيَكْتُمُونَ الْحَقَّ وَهُمْ يَعْلَمُونَ

আমি যিসকলক কিতাব প্ৰদান কৰিছো, সিহঁতে তেওঁক এনেকৈ চিনি পায় যেনেকৈ সিহঁতে নিজৰ সন্তানক চিনি পায়[1]; আৰু নিশ্চয় সিহঁতৰ এটা দলে জানি বুজি সত্য গোপন কৰি থাকে।

.

[2:146] Those (Ellaziina) to whom We gave (Aatai'naa-humu) the Book (El'Kitaaba) recognize it (Ya'rifuuna-

hu) as (Kamaa) they recognize (Ya'rifuuna) their children (Ab'naa'a-hum'). But (Wa) indeed (Inna), a group 

(Fariiqan) among them (Min'hum') are (La) concealing (Yak'tumuuna) the truth (El'Haqqa) while (Wa) they 

(Hum') know (Ya'lamuun). 

.

📍Note-1(Bibical)

This refers, in the first instance, to the fact that the Ka`bah was Abraham's qiblah, as well as to the Biblical prophecies relating to Ishmael as the progenitor of a "great nation" (Genesis xxi, 13 and 18) from whom a prophet "like unto Moses" would one day arise: for it was through Ishamel's descendant, the Arabian Prophet, that the commandment relating to the qiblah was revealed. (Regarding the still more explicit predictions of the future advent of the Prophet Muhammad, forthcoming from the canonical Gospels, see 61:6 and the corresponding note.

.

📍Note-2(Bibical)

The advent of Prophet Muhammad from the Ishmaelite descendants of Abraham has been foretold in the Bible. Genesis 21:13-18 . Gospel of John 14:16 , 15:26, 16:7. See QXP 2:125. Historically, the Gospel of Saint Barnabas, which was accepted and widely read in churches, had ‘Muhammad’ in the exact Arabic form. But Pope Gelasius banned that Gospel in 496 CE for finding the Arabic name distasteful. It was only in the 16th century when the Italian translation of Barnabas was discovered in Vienna, Austria.

.

🌈২:১৪৭

الْحَقُّ مِنْ رَبِّكَ ۖ فَلَا تَكُونَنَّ مِنَ الْمُمْتَرِينَ

সত্য তোমাৰ প্ৰতিপালকৰ পৰা প্ৰেৰিত। গতিকে তুমি কেতিয়াও সন্দেহ পোষণকাৰীসকলৰ অন্তৰ্ভূক্ত নহ’বা।

.

[2:147] The truth (El'Haqqu) is from (Min) your LORD (Rabbi-ka); so (Fa) do not (Laa) be (Takuunanna)

among (Mina) the doubters (El'Mum'tariin).
