MEANING OF AL BAQARAH





AL BAQARAH
(The Self Inquiry)

SUMMARY 

Al Baqarah is the self inquiry that takes us on an enchanting journey of self-discovery, where we embark on a spiritual quest to unravel the mystery of our true nature. It's all about peeling away the layers of wrong understanding, baseless understanding, distorted understanding moulded by our conditioned minds and uncovering what lies at the core, the pure essence of our being. Amidst the realm of representations and absolute reality, we also encounter the captivating illusions of otherness, brought to life by our mind, body, and soul. Al-kitab, an inherent script bestowed upon us by the Rabb, serves as our trusted compass. This sacred guidance leads our restless minds towards serenity, helping us discard the illusory trappings of otherness. This will dissolve false perceptions created by our psychological ego, self-centeredness, falsehoods, and misguided understandings. With these illusory aspects laid to rest, a remarkable transformation occurs. We witness the emergence of a singular reality, harmoniously uniting our heightened consciousness, its representations in the lower realms, and their interconnectedness within the grand tapestry of existence.

Allah described in Surah Al Baqarah verses 67 to 71 the baqarah, the self inquiry that bring you out from the state of ignorant to the state of awareness.  This action is self inflicting, not hastily done for early results and it is not achievable by imposition.  The guidance is represented by the ayaati / signs that resemble the truth.  Thus you will not be able to see the truth directly on a first person perspective.  The baqarah is free from the shades of a conditioned mind and it comes bright and pure with its freshness.  Baqarah is not easily achievable in the lower consciousness but can be accomplished by who obey Allah in sound and complete submission. 

Allah prohibits any results of executing baqarah / self inquiry by those who are hadu / lenient and not serious in their effort because the outcome will remain as representation in the lower consciousness, defective and confused.  Whatever gain out of it will not bring any security and happiness. 

This narration is formulated from the observation of the verses of the book Al Quran below. 




With the name Allah (the All-Encompassing Source whose name encompasses the measurements of existence and the unfolding chain of events leading to all observable outcomes), the Rahmaan, the Raheem. (The Rahmaan is the boundless system of factual knowledge and the Raheem is the grace bestowed upon those who sincerely seek and engage with this wisdom through the guidance of Ar Rahmaan).

  

Surah Al Baqara 2:67

Exposition :  And when Musa (one who is matured and familiar with the truth) said to his qaum / group of established thoughts, "Surely, Allah commands you to execute a baqara / self-inquiry." They (group of thoughts) said, "Are you huzuwa / disregarding / contempting us?" He (Musa) said, "I seek refuge in Allah that I be from al jahilin / the ignorant one”.

In this verse, Allah gives His command to us to execute the baqarah, self-inquiry.  Generally the self-inquiry is not taken seriously by many.  Majority assume that they already know the truth of who and what they are and there is no necessity to examine further the nature of their true self.  In surah Al Anaam 6 verse 146, Allah call this group of people as "hadu" that is those who are lenient to Allah's command.  They said to Musa "are you disregarding (mocking) us?" reflect their leniency to Allah's command.  Musa seek refuge in Allah from being the ignorant one signifying that the baqarah should be given the utmost importance as it will take you out of the state of ignorant to the state of awareness of the truth.

Surah Al Baqara 2:68


Exposition They said, "Call on your Rabb / Lord to make clear to us what it is.  (Musa) Said, "(Allah) Says, surely she is baqaratun /  a self-inquiry that is not faridun / imposed and not bikrun / hasten for early result, sought between that, do therefore what you are commanded.

The baqarah / self-inquiry is a self inquiry action and is not acievable if it is   faridun / imposed (including not through imposed self-discipline).  The execution of self-inquiry is to be accomplished on a willingly and likingly basis.  This characteric is followed by bikrun that is not to be hasty for early results in the investigation.  What we are commanded to do is to sought between the allowed free-will and not to impose attention hastily (by thoughts) for a quick result.  Stay calm for the revelation to appear.

Surah Al Baqara 2:69 

Exposition : They said, "Call upon your Rabb / Lord for us that He may clarify what luna / colour it is.  He (Musa) said, "Surely He (Allah) says a baqaratun / self-inquiry is a safraau / empty, faqi'un / pure / bright colour pleasing to the observer.  

The question what colour is a baqaratun / self-inquiry essentially gives us a view that there are a variety of forms that correlate with the multiple conditioning of the mind.   From such conditioned mind, it is accustomed that reality is seen in multiplicity and variation.  So it is usual, the question we ask is "which reality?"  Allah answered by saying that baqaratun / a self-inquiry is safrauu / empty.  It is not an object and it is not a thing.  The nature of our conditioned mind is that it is limited to see only matters.  Thus to inquire, there must be freedom to look by emptying the mind with all the things imposed.  So when the mind is emptied, baqaratun is pure and bright with its freshness making it clear for the observer to see.  

Surah Al Baqarah 2:70



Exposition They said, "Call on your Rabb / Lord to make it clear to us what it is, for surely the baqara / self-inquiry is  tashabaha / resembling to us, and if Allah will we shall surely be guided.

In this verse, Allah describes further that the baqara / self-inquiry is tashabaha / resemble. In other words, the descriptions are in allegories, symbols or representations to the reality embedded and hidden.  Thus the reality cannot be seen from a first person perspective.  For this we seek Allah’s guidance to guide us so that we can see the true hidden reality in the tashabaha / resembling symbols of baqaratun / a self-inquiry that is provided as a representation to it, insyaAllah.

Surah Al Baqarah 2:71 


Exposition He (Musa) said, "He (Allah) says, indeed it is baqaratun / a self-inquiry that is laa dhalulun / not easy tusiru / to cultivate al ardh / the lower consciousness and not easily watered / moistened / made porous al hars / the investigation musallamatun / he who obey in sound submission shiyata / fully accomplished.  They said, "now you have come with al haq / the truth.  So they dhabahu / perform / execute it and they could hardly kadu / come near of yaf'alun / doing it.

It is not easy to accomplish baqarah in the lower consciousness because the lower consciousness is based on thniking and thinking is limited in nature.  In addition, due to the conditioning of the mind, baqarah becomes rigid and not fluid enough to break up into pieces and to decipher in our investigation.  However, the baqarah can be easily accomplished by silencing the mind and obey Allah in complete and sound submission  Al haqq / the truth is revealed from your Rabb / Lord when there is no interference of thoughts.  So it looks like they are the ones who thought it over but in essence Allah is the one who reveals the truth. 

Surah Al Baqarah 2:72


ExpositionAnd when you qatal / kill nafsan / a soul ( conceptualized separate self ) then you averted in (concerning) it.  And Allah is the muhrijun / one who brought forth what you were taktumun / concealing.

Essentially killing your nafs / soul is actually dissolving your conceptualized separate self which practically composed of your ego and self interest.  These are ingredients of the conditionings that distort the seeing and easily will interfere with the truth.  However dissolving the ego and self interest are the taboo against killing your nafs / soul because it is believed that killing your nafs / soul entailed losing your identity (sensation of oneself).

Surah Al Baqarah 2:73


Exposition So We said, "Dhoribu / Strike with part of it (baqaratun) like that attributable to you, Allah yuhyi / revives / brings mauta / the dead to life and shows you His ayaati / signs that you may ta'kilun / use reason.

Recognise and seek to confront the ego and self interest (the attributes) of our nafs / soul (conceptualized separate self) and strike to dissolve part by part.  Look at it (the ego and self interest) clearly and know the illusions that stand in your way to embrace the truth.  With the dissolution of your ego and self interest, you will connect with your true nature and see the signs that represent the truth.  A clear mind gives clear reasoning.

Surah Al Anaam 6 verse 146


Exposition : And to those who are hadu / became lenient (to Allah's command), We prohibited every achievement of victory / success; and from al baqari / self awareness  (to know oneself) and al ghanami / gain / profit (the outcome or result of the self awareness), We prohibited upon them their results that materialised, except what hamilat / conceives to zuhuuru / apparent or al hawaayaa / the defective or deficient results that materialised or what is ikh'talata / confused / disorderly materialised with azheem / great magnitude.  That is jazaynaahum / their reward for their bibagyhihim / wrongful act (that is being lenient to Allah's command).  And surely, We are truthful.  

Those who are hadu / lenient are those who are not serious, not paying enough attention and take it easy to matters relating to Allah's commands.  Allah prohibits whatever outcome or results and whatever gains arising out of it from their efforts in executing Al Baqarah / self awareness except whatever outcome or results that arise from that is apparent (instead of bil ghaib), defective and confused.  Surely these disorderly results and the gains attach will not bring forth any security and happiness to them.  This is the reward Allah promised to the hadu / lenient (to Allah's command).

AL BAQARAH
(THE SELF INQUIRY) 

 

COMMENTARY
#looking_at_oneself  
 

This surah opens with the disjointed letters Alif, Lam, Meem. Altogether the Quranic language consists of 28 letters and 14 appear as disjointed at the beginning of 29 surahs. These Quranic letters, with their distinct shapes and sounds, form the foundational building blocks of the Quran, through which divine signs are manifested to convey Allah’s hidden messages of guidance and wisdom. From these letters, words and language emerge, serving as a gateway to uncovering the profound, hidden spiritual messages embedded within the signs. They invite pure rational mind to contemplate and grasp the deeper meanings concealed within.  Alif signifies the singular, fundamental, irreducible reality of being. Lam represents the manifestation of this reality in the form of His representations, and Meem is the letter of death, signifying the 'aakhirah', the ending of baseless, falsehood and wrong understanding of the representations called duniya along with dissolution of your souls (anfus). It becomes an act of injustice when you misplace the truth by accepting its representation as reality. Amalan solihati are the corrective actions that dissolve these injustices, allowing your true self to awaken and return to Allah. This process of aakhirah ends the state of dissociation, unifying your true self as a fractal being of the consciousness. (2:1)   

That is Al Kitabyour inherent script, embedded and hidden within your luth mahfudz of consciousness. It calls for a spiritual inward journey of self-exploration and introspection, urging you to delve deeply into your being, scrutinizing every aspect to uncover the truth beneath. It is akin to peeling away layers of conditioning, false beliefs, unsubstantiated understandings, and illusions, allowing you to inquire into your true essence. Through this self-inquiry, you gain self-awareness and with it, undergo profound personal transformation, aligning your mental well-being with Allah’s divine guidance. This alignment ultimately leads to peace and happiness.  The surah lays the foundation by establishing that Al Kitab, the inherent script, serves as guidance for the muttaqeen, those who are mindful. The muttaqeen find security in Al Kitab by trusting in its ghaiba, knowledge of the unseen. Within its representations lie signs, and understanding their inherent values and patterns reveals the esoteric meanings, the inner and hidden dimensions of reality. This knowledge demands effort and preparation to grasp. The seeker must develop the eyes to see and the ears to hear life’s most refined truths.  The muttaqeen, the mindful ones, actively establish salaah, fostering a connection with higher consciousness. This enables them to access and download the ghaiba—the hidden messages of truth. By integrating these messages into their lives, they gain certainty in their path. They detach all attachments of their ego-driven selves, becoming the successful ones who transcend the frontiers of consciousness. (2:2-5)  

On the flipside, the rejecters, known as the kaafirin, possess closed hearts that cling stubbornly to their existing beliefs. Their hearts are sealed, rendering them resistant to accepting new perspectives or embracing fresh knowledge of truths. (2:6-7)

 

In contrast to the muttaqeen (those who are mindful of Allah), there are the nas, those who claim they take security in Al Kitab and the moment of ending the dissociation (yawmil aakhiri)," yet they do not align with the mukminin, those who truly take security in Al Kitab with their unfettered rational mind (free of impurities). They attempt to deceive Allah and the mukminun (those who take security in Al Kitab), but in reality, they only deceive their own souls without realizing it. Their hearts, driven by affection and emotion, are in a state of disorder (maradhun), sick, weary, and lacking knowledge. As a result, Allah prolongs their disorder and afflicts them with severe punishment (azaab) for their denial of the truth. (2:8-10)

They are the unwise allowing themselves becoming a hyppocrite when their souls turn away from the commands of their Lord. When it is reasoned with them not to cause corruption they reply, "We are reformers." Yet, it is they who corrupt the covenant, unaware of their actions. When told to take security in Al Kitab as others have, they mock, "Should we feel secure like the unwise?" In truth, they are the unwise, though they do not realize it.  When they measure the mukminun (those who took security in Al Kitab), they claim, "We feel secure." But when alone and influenced by despair, they admit, "We are with you, disregarding the truth." Allah will disregard them, prolonging their state of falsehood, leaving them to wander blindly. They have traded guidance for error, gaining no profit and remaining lost. (2:11-16)

They are those who fail to end their dissociation with their true selves. Even when they glimpse the light and attempt to walk the right path, the darkness created by their own barriers diminishes it. Deaf and blind to the truth, they remain unable to return. Even if they perceive the hidden messages from higher consciousness, they misuse the revelation out of fear dissolving and losing their conceptualized self. Though they may recognize their injustice toward Allah and establish understanding in theory, they falter when it comes to practical application, unable to embody what they know. (2:17-20)

O agitated mind, serve your Lord, the One who evolves you, guiding you to become mindful of Allah. He is the One who nurtures your lower consciousness and constructs your higher consciousness with factual knowledge, granting you intelligence as a provision. Place your trust in your Lord, for you cannot attain a similar surah or an overpowering influence capable of taming your restless mind and stubborn thoughts. (2:21-24)

Those who take security in what has been revealed by their Lord and perform corrective deeds are the bashar, pure, rational, and sensible thoughts whose abode is in jannah, where hidden knowledge flows for their consumption. They are granted the provision of intelligence within their embodiment of the integrated pair of zakara and unsa: zakara represents the divine fatherly masculine attributes like linearity, logic, focus, strength, independence, and assertiveness, while unsa embodies the divine motherly feminine qualities of intuitiveness, nurturing, compassion, acceptance, and care. Through this balance, they decode the messages embedded in the ayaati (signs), uncovering their hidden, esoteric meanings. Indeed, Allah will not come alive to you if you accept only the representation, for within it are signs, and signs are not the reality itself. They merely point toward the reality. Those who take complete security in Allah are the ones who recognize the truth from the signs revealed by their Lord. (2:25-26)

These are the Bani Isra'el, those who construct their spiritual path in pursuit of truth. Allah establishes a covenant with them, promising that if they earnestly strive in their journey, He will guide them to the truth they seek. The Bani Isra'el are those who embark on a path of spiritual growth, seeking Allah's guidance for self-discovery and enlightenment. Their duty is to uphold their covenant by sincerely seeking Allah's guidance, staying connected to Him, and unlocking the hidden knowledge He offers. In return, Allah will fulfill His promise by granting them the knowledge they seek. However, if they break this covenant after committing to it, they will find themselves among the losers. You entered this physical world lifeless, devoid of awareness of the truth. Then Allah brought you to life, awakening and evolving you. Yet, you allowed yourself to become lifeless again, filling your soul with falsehood and illusion. Once more, Allah evolves you with the truth, reviving you, and to Him, you will ultimately return. Allah evolves you in the lower consciousness, adapt the higher consciousness to you and shape your congregated mental development. (2:27-29)  

When your rational mind falls silent and you attain a state of inner authority, where the power to interpret and judge shifts from your agitated mind to your consciousness field, your Lord will speak to you about the kholifah (representations). These representations carry signs pointing to the truth. Allah has perfected this system for you, so investigate it with purity and do not corrupt it.  Allah imparts unseen knowledge (ghaiba) to those who possess inner authority, those who have moved the authority to judge from their agitated mind into their consciousness field, known as Adam. They are those who are prepared to receive the knowledge of the unseen. Truly, Allah is the All-Knowing, the All-Wise. We possess no knowledge except what You have taught us. The names (essences) of existence, once hidden, were made known to Adam when their measurements were quantified and their chain of events unfolded toward their ultimate outcomes. (2:30-33)

Among those within the realm of inner authority is Iblees, a manifestation of thoughts from the rational mind, shrouded in despair born of psychological hurt. When Allah commanded submission to AdamIblees refused. The rational mind did not fully fall silent, and the thoughts consumed by despair became rejecters. Allah instruct Adam to calm down, that is not to activate the rational mind from silent by embodying his integrated pair of zakara, divine masculine attributes and unsa, divine feminine attributes. (2:34-35)

Thoughts born of your rational mind are bound to stray, shaped by the conditioning of Shaytan, whispers born of despair. Yet Allah guides those who turn to Him in repentance and seek His way. His words are revealed to you, received and understood by your rational mind.  Whoever follows His guidance will know neither fear nor sorrow. But those who reject His message will find their companions to be none other than the thoughts of their own rational mind, thoughts conditioned by the whispers of Shaytan. (2:36-39)

O Bani Israel, you who embark on a spiritual journey in search of true guidance, embody the pure and elevated thoughts that Allah has bestowed upon you with divine masculine qualities: focus, courage, assertiveness, and reason, so that you may fulfill your covenant and remain devoted to Him.  Take refuge in what Allah has revealed, and do not turn away. Do not trade His signs for fleeting gains, and be mindful of Him alone. Do not cloak the truth in falsehood, nor conceal it when you know it to be clear.  Establish your connection with your Lord so that you may receive and perceive the hidden wisdom He bestows, allowing your mind to evolve in alignment with divine truth. Command your restless thoughts to remain anchored in sincerity, and free yourself from the illusions of a conditioned mind. Follow Al-Kitab, your inherent script, and walk the path of truth unburdened by the constructs of the conceptual self. (2:40-44)

Establishing solah is indeed a profound undertaking, for it is in this sacred practice that you receive and internalize the hidden messages from your Lord. To succeed, you must liberate yourself from the illusions of a conditioned mind. Seek help and cultivate patience, for they are the Yazhunnun, those who hold unwavering certainty in their meeting with their Lord, shaped by their understanding of Al-Kitab. (2:45-46)  
 
O Bani Israel, those who embark on a spiritual journey seeking guidance, Allah will grant you an advantage in factual knowledge provided you embody divine masculine qualities through pure and elevated thoughts. Be mindful that there will come a moment when a soul can no longer intercede for another. This moment arrives when your heart becomes hardened. It makes no difference whether you have received the truth or not; without truth, justice cannot prevail, and no soul can be helped.  When Allah liberates you from the grip of stubborn thoughts, dismantle the constructs of your conditioned rational mind, and nurture the emotional urges of creativity, empathy, and unconditional acceptance. As you engage with hidden messages, examining them with intelligence and discernment, Allah protects you, not only from being overwhelmed by their vastness but also from your own resistance. In moments of darkness, do not act hastily. Restrain your rational mind from rushing to decisions or conclusions; patience and restraint are your greatest allies. Be grateful to your Lord and seek forgiveness so that Allah gives you clarity. (2:47-52)  

Surely, when Allah grants you Al-Kitab, He also bestows upon you the Furqan, a discerning conscience that enables you to distinguish between the inner voice that delivers the divine message and the mere whispers of your own thoughts, so that you may be rightly guided.  This skill must be sharpened, allowing you to recognize with clarity and authority where your established patterns of thought have gone astray, whether through haste, unhealthy attachments, or the need for repentance over your dissociation. And it is through this discernment that you come to understand whether Allah has accepted your return from the dissociation. (2:53-54)

Those who doubt the dissolution of their conceptualized self and hesitate to end their dissociation often demand further evidence of Allah's manifestation before placing their trust in Al Kitab. In reality, this is a ploy, their true fear lies in losing their identity, their mind, body, and soul. As long as your conceptualized self remains, your true self lies lifeless. Only when you end this dissociation will Allah raise your true self to life. Here, Allah provides covering from badness and reveal you manna, strength in moments of weakness, and salwa, patience and solace to endure. Through these divine gifts, you are nourished with the finest wisdom from what Allah has provided. Enter the Qariah, a community that shares your values, with humility, knowing that your burdens have been lifted. Allah will forgive you and further enrich your knowledge, fortifying you so that your service to Him is rooted in true understanding. (2:55-58)

Those who distort Allah's message, attributing meanings to it other than what has been revealed, commit acts of injustice against Allah. Their recompense is punishment proportionate to their wrongdoing. Allah commands you to study with diligence and discipline your stubborn thoughts when seeking fresh knowledge from Him. In response, a surge of aligned thoughts will emerge (many neurons in the brain fire together) where each group of thoughts resonating with the truth. (2:59-60)

A delicate network of neurons and thoughts seeks to communicate with you through your mind. Your mind possesses the remarkable ability to reorganize itself, forming new connections that open doors to deeper understanding. It flourishes, adapts, and, like nature reinventing itself each spring, finds the light of divine wisdom. Do not rush this process. Ascension is the conscious participation in your own evolution, unfolding in distinct phases as your consciousness expands. Those who lack patience will not endure consuming knowledge from only a single group of aligned thoughts. Their expectations exceed their limits. As a result, they are enveloped in humiliation and misery, ultimately proclaiming and asserting knowledge of the unseen (ghaib) without truth. Allah has made it clear that whoever takes security in Him and the moment of ending duniya (worldly attachments), and engages in reform, will receive their reward. They shall have no fear nor grief, regardless of their status, whether they are those returning to the right path, seeking help in their journey, or just beginning their involvement. What matters is their truthfulness and sincerity in their actions. Indeed, whenever you fulfill a level of understanding and Allah establishes a covenant with you, you are commanded to hold firmly to your strength and embody your divine masculine qualities. In doing so, Allah elevates you to a higher level. (2:61-63)

If you turn away after this, you will lose the advantage Allah has granted you, along with His profound system of education. Indeed, you are aware that those who transgress the peace of their minds will descend into a state of chaos, a "monkey mind", a consequence meant to serve as a warning and a lesson. (2:64-66) 

The firing of neurons and the flow of thoughts serve as a source of divine information from Allah to your true self, delivered through your inner voice to your mind. You cannot ignore these sequences of aligned thoughts. Allah commands you to connect with them, receive this guidance, and engage in self-inquiry through exploration and introspection. The criteria for this self-inquiry are as follows: it must be undertaken willingly and with genuine desire (Allah does not impose it upon you), without haste for immediate results. It requires the embodiment of divine masculine qualities, focus, depth, courage in your struggle, and more, to uncover what lies concealed within. You must identify what aligns with reality through the values and patterns revealed in the signs. Though cultivating this process is not easy, once the truth is received, you must act upon it by dissolving your duniya (worldly attachments), including your conceptualized self. So engage in the inquiry, striking the part that is attributable to you (according to your station) and Allah will revive your true self and show His signs so that you may comprehend.  (2:67-73)

If we fail to heed Allah's command to evolve our agitated minds, our hearts will gradually grow rough, signifying a state of heartlessness, coldness, and indifference. A rough heart loses its sensitivity to the divine signs and the needs of others, becoming closed off to compassion and understanding. This spiritual stagnation prevents us from connecting with the higher consciousness and the truth that Allah seeks to impart. Over time, this indifference hardens further, leading to a state where the mind becomes rigid and stubborn. In this state, we prioritize our own opinions, refusing to listen to others or consider alternative perspectives. This hard-headedness creates barriers to growth, as we become trapped in our own limited understanding, unable to receive or act upon the guidance Allah provides.  However, even within the hardened mind, there may be a small opening, a crack through which fresh knowledge can flow. This opening, though narrow, allows some thoughts to awaken the soul, bringing moments of clarity and submission to the truth. For those who seize this opportunity, it becomes a turning point, a chance to break free from the rigidity of their conditioned mind and embrace the divine guidance. Yet, for others who remain closed, the opportunity slips away, leaving them entrenched in their stubbornness. It is through humility and willingness to evolve that we can truly align ourselves with Allah's will and experience spiritual transformation. (2:74)

It is futile to expect those who knowingly alter Allah's message to sincerely accept or take security in the truth you convey to them. They have already distorted Allah's revelations despite having received and understood them, can truly be trusted to embrace the message you share. Their deliberate manipulation of divine guidance reveals a lack of integrity and a refusal to submit to the truth, making it unlikely for them to genuinely align with or trust in what you communicate. This verse serves as a reminder to focus on those who are receptive and sincere, rather than placing hope in those who have already shown a willingness to corrupt Allah's message for their own ends. Those who alter Allah's message will measure and assess your imaan (faith), claiming that they, too, possess faith. However, when they are exposed as empty or devoid of the hidden knowledge (ghaib), they will resort to disputing with you about the physical representations of the truth, relying solely on their rational mind's limited perception. Their arguments stem from a superficial physical understanding, as they prioritize physical perception over the spiritual, divine wisdom. This behavior exposes their disconnect from the true essence of faith and their failure to dissolve their egotistical self, a construct of their conditioned minds. Allah knows both what they have learned from the revelations they received and what they have generated through their own rational thinking. (2:75-77) 
 
Among those who distort Allah's message are those who lean on their motherly care for comfort but possess wishful thinking, lacking true knowledge of Al Kitab. As a result, they follow the constructs of their own conditioned rational minds, relying on their limited opinions rather than divine guidance.  How tragic it is to those who write Al Kitab with their own hands, using independent logic, then claim, "This is from Allah," to gain petty worldly gains. Woe to them for what they’ve written and the consequences they’ve earned.  They are the ones who claim they will only endure an-nar, the burning sensation of internal conflicts, for a counted moment, unaware that they are attributing to Allah what they do not truly understand. (2:78-80)

Those who earn evil and become enveloped by it, through thoughts born of their conditioned rational mind, are companions of an-nar, the burning sensation of internal conflicts that consume the soul; they will remain in this state eternally. Conversely, those who take security (aamanu) in Al Kitab and engage in reform (solehah), through thoughts of their pure rational mind, are companions of jannah, the hidden garden of divine knowledge; they will dwell in its abundance forever.  (2:81-82)

Those who construct their spiritual journey seeking guidance and enter into a covenant with Allah have clear obligations: to serve Allah alone and to treat their rational support (rijal) and emotional support (nisa) with kindness. They must nurture their closest, related thoughts (qurba), care for thoughts that lack foundational support (yatama), and guide thoughts in need of direction. They must refrain from generating harmful deeds born of their agitated mind. By establishing a connection to receive and download Allah’s hidden messages and pursuing mental development (zakah), they ascend toward higher consciousness.  You know you have begun to fulfill your obligations toward your covenant with Allah when you stop your agitated mind from producing further harmful actions and avoid entangling it in the encircling thoughts and make them a captive as it is forbidden for you to expel them.  (2:83-84)

Your obligation is to dissolve your conditioned mind and eliminate the distinguished recurring cycles of thoughts (from among the encircling thoughts) that lead to harmful actions. However, it is forbidden to simply suppress or restrain these harmful thoughts. Instead, when you encounter the thoughts you have expelled, reclaim and confront them so you can fully dismantle them. In doing so, you take complete security in Al Kitab.  If you find security in one part while disregarding the rest, you are among those who have traded the life of this duniya for the life of the aakhirah. Your punishment will not be lessened. (2:85-86)

Allah first revealed His hidden messages to bashar, the realm of rational and sensible thought, then to anaam, the domain of pure, elevated insight. After embodying divine masculine qualities such as focus, logic, assertiveness, and courage, He bestowed Al-Kitab, inherent script, upon Musa, who is strong in rational mind. Following this, Allah sent the inner voice, the messenger, to recite the signs, teach the Kitab, and impart Hikmah (wisdom). Then, to Isa, He granted the support of Ruh Quddus (the Holy Spirit), illuminating the signs and unveiling the hidden messages with absolute clarity.  Yet despite these profound Allah's given advantage, how can one allow arrogance to veil the truth, rejecting the message simply because it does not conform to the desires of a conditioned mind? Their hearts are sealed in self-imposed arrogance, and in that state, Allah's laknat, a deprivation of inspiration, growth, and evolution, takes hold. They trust but a little and reject most, leaving themselves stagnant and disconnected from the unfolding of divine wisdom.  Even when they are able to confirm that what has been revealed to them aligns with previous revelations, and they recognize that decoding these signs will lead to victory, they still reject the message. As a result, Allah's laknat / curse will be upon them.  (2:87-89)

Do not trade your souls with the understanding of Allah's messages for duniya as this will lead you to result in rejecting what Allah has revealed to you.  Do not resent Allah for not granting you the advantage as it is given only to His servant.  In doing so, you invite Allah's wrath upon wrath. Do not deceive yourselves by claiming to have faith in what Allah reveals while, in truth, rejecting it out of a desire for worldly gain. Whenever a thought arises that proclaims or asserts knowledge of the unseen (ghaib), you kill it.  Indeed, Musa, who possessed a strong rational mind, came to you with clarity of the message. Yet, you rejected Allah's message due to your hastiness and injustice, failing to put things in their rightful place. (2:90-92) 

When Allah established His covenant with you, He raised a mountain above you, a higher self calling you to surrender, be humble, and transform. Hold firmly to this covenant, giving it your full presence and unwavering attention. Be mindful of your tendency toward haste, and remain vigilant against the darkness (evil) that arises from impulsiveness.  If you are truly sincere in your transformation of the Aakhirah, the journey toward your higher self and the dissolution of the fragmented, dissociated self, then let your heart long for the dissolution of the conceptualized self, that which clings to illusion and separation. As long as you remain in injustice, displacing truth from its rightful place, you will never truly long for this transformation. The self that clings to illusion fears its own dissolution, resisting the very liberation it needs. The truth comes solely from Allah, and your pure rational mind is meant to bring understanding and clarity to that truth. However, even a slight reliance on your rational mind for guidance, rather than fully trusting Allah, will not save you from punishment, as it amounts to associating partners with Him.  In essence, relying on the rational mind for guidance is a transgression against Jibril, the faculty of the mind that decodes hidden messages. It is Jibril that brings down guidance and sensible thoughts to your heart, providing understanding and clarity. (2:93-97)

A rejecter is one who transgresses against Allah, the malaa'ikah (your inner authority), His rusul (inner voices that deliver the message), Jibril (the decoder of hidden messages), and Mikael (intelligence). In return, Allah opposes them as a transgressor. His signs are clear, and none reject them except those who are defiantly disobedient.  (2:98-99) 
 
Be mindful that each time you make a covenant with Allah, there may be aspects of your own thoughts that abandon the commitment, leaving you without true security in the covenant. And when the rusul, your inner voices, convey the news of the unseen, affirming what was already with them, they discard the divine message, even though the signs clearly point to the truth. This happens because they follow the whispers of shayatin, those in despair over their lost sovereign inner authority, unlike Sulaiman, who embodied complete inner inner authority in his submission. These shayatin lead your agitated mind into sihr, a diversion from what was revealed by your Lord. This diversion manifests through distortions in speech (bibabil), particularly through harut, an unrestrained tongue and marut, a silver tongue that lacks true substance. And evil is what they have traded in exchange.  It would be better for them if they take security and trust in the revelation and be extremely cautious  of their own thoughts.  O you who take security, do not say we listen.  Instead say we reflect and ponder.  (2:100-104) 
 
Do not be like those among the ahli kitab who are well-versed with their inherent script yet distort and reject it. They yearn for divine favor from their Lord, yet resist dissolving their mistaken understanding. When an inherent script is received and truly understood, it naturally supersedes the old, either replacing it with something greater or refining it in likeness. Allah measures all things perfectly. To Him belongs the dominion of both higher and lower consciousness, and there is no true guardian or helper except Allah.  Whoever exchange imaan, faith and security in Al Kitab with rejection, then he has surely strayed from a sound (true) way.  (2:105-108) 

The desire among the ahli kitab, those who are familiar with their inherent script, to turn those who have placed their trust in Allah’s message into rejecters arises from a conditioned mind rooted in separateness. This stems from an identity still bound to the conceptual self, one not yet fully dissolved into the recognition of its essence.  Yet, extend forgiveness, for Allah guides those who seek guidance beyond dualistic perception, toward the direct recognition of the singular reality that unfolds as the multiplicity of forms and experiences. All actions emerge from and return to the singular reality that expresses itself as existence. Establishing ṣalāh (connection) and zakāh (purity and growth) dissolves the illusion of separation. Every act of generosity or sincerity is not merely a deed but a movement toward the unfolding of the soul, drawing it into the direct recognition of its essence, the singular reality of being. (2:109-110) 

The claim that ultimate fulfillment belongs exclusively to a particular group, those who return to the right path and help others to do the same, reflects qualities rather than fixed identity. It arises from the illusion of separateness. True liberation lies in dissolving self-imposed boundaries and ending the dissociation, recognizing the ever-present reality that transcends division. True fulfillment is not bound to identity, affiliation, or inherited belief but is realized through direct surrender to the singular reality. Whoever aligns fully with the essence of existence, dissolving attachment to the conceptual self, moves in harmony with the unfolding of life. In this surrender, there is neither fear nor grieve, only the effortless flow of being in which peace and wholeness naturally arise. (2:111-112)

The conditioned mind caught in separation claims truth for itself while denying it to others, forgetting that truth is not confined to any label or group. Even those who engage with their inherent scripts remain divided when they hold onto conceptual distinctions rather than experiencing reality directly. True awakening is not found in opposition but in the dissolution of division, where clarity arises not through argument but through the unfolding presence of what is.  Obscuration from truth arises when one seeks to limit or suppress the surrender towards natural embodiment of the Divine.  Those who block this surrender, remain trapped in fear, for separation breeds insecurity. The weight of illusion is its own suffering, for to resist truth is to resist one’s own being. The Divine is not confined to a place, a direction, or a form. Emergence and withdrawal, rising and setting, are but appearances within the singular reality. Wherever attention turns, there is only that presence. (2:113-115)

To impose division upon the limitless like Allah created the physical world, is to misunderstand its nature.  The Infinite does not give rise to separation, nor is it contained by form. Rather, all that appears, is but an expression of the singular reality, effortlessly aligned in its unfolding. There is nothing outside of it, nothing apart from it.  Existence is not assembled, nor does it unfold through effort, it simply is. The Infinite does not create in parts, nor does it derive from something else; it is the very essence from which all arises. When the One wills, it is not a command to something separate, but the effortless expression of being itself. There is no delay, no distance, only the spontaneous unfolding of what has never been apart from reality.  (2:116-117)

The mind that sees itself as separate demands external proof, seeking words and signs as if reality could be apart from itself. Yet, this very seeking is the veil, for the signs are ever-present, not given from without but recognized within. To one who sees with clarity, existence itself is the sign, self-evident, requiring no external confirmation. What is real has never been hidden, only overlooked.  Truth does not come from outside but is revealed through recognition. The messenger is not separate from the message, nor is awakening something given, it is simply pointed to. Joy and suffering are not imposed from without; they arise from how reality is seen. Liberation is available, but none can force another to see what they are not ready to receive. (2:118-119)

The conditioned mind seeks certainty in conformity, mistaking collective belief for truth. But reality is not found in adherence to identity, it is seen in direct awareness. True guidance of Allah does not belong to any group but is ever-present for those who recognize it. To follow external expectations over inner clarity is to move away from what has always been self-evident.  If you follow the external expectations, you will have no guardian and no helper.  Truth is not in words alone but in the lived recognition of what they point to. Those who move in harmony with reality, rather than merely reciting it, find peace. But to deny or conceal what is evident within oneself is to remain in self-created suffering. The book is not external; it is the unfolding of reality itself, already written in the essence of being.  Allah urges the Bani Israel—those who construct their spiritual journey in search of guidance, to embody the divine masculine qualities of focus, logic, assertiveness, and courage. These qualities arise through Allah’s favor, which grants the effortless decoding of His signs. This favor manifests through ni‘mah, pure, elevated knowledge, that draws one closer to the totality of His absolute truth.  And remain aware of the unfolding moment where no conditioned soul can avail for another, for in reality, the truth is from your Lord.  No external savior will intercede with the truth, for help and support are not from outside but are the unfolding of the very essence of life itself.  (2:120-123)

And recall when existence itself, through its unfolding, presented Ibrahim, who is inclined to the truth, with experiences of trial, and he moved through them in complete awareness. Then it was revealed to him: 'You are established as a leader (to guide).' He asked, 'And will this recognition extend to my lineage?' The answer came: The harmony of truth is not inherited by those who are unjust, those who accept the representation as reality itself. Your mental house is a place of return for you.  With the inheritance of the truth, Allah will transform your mental house into a sanctuary of peace, free from your agitated mind. So establish your connection (salah to your Sustainer) to receive and download Allah's hidden messages, from the position of truth (Ibrahim) and Allah covenanted that you will purify your mental house, seeking and recognize the truth (tho'ifina and 'akifina), accept the falsehood of separation (rukka'i),  and surrender your souls (sujud) to end the dissociation.  Call upon Allah, so that your state of inner peace is established and nurtured, allowing divine understanding to unfold through heightened awareness and intelligence. Those who remain veiled in illusion, rejecting the signs, may indulge in fleeting pleasures, then they will inevitably face the punishment.  (2:124-126)

And as you establish the foundation of your inner sanctuary upon truth, seek help from Allah to keep it a place of peace. Ask that your thoughts, those inclined toward truth, those that listen with sincerity, and those scattered yet yearning for clarity, be accepted in submission. Reveal to us our state of devotion and alignment, and awaken within us the inner voice that delivers wisdom and guides us to deeper understanding. Nurture and expand this sacred space within us, allowing it to flourish in truth.  (2:127-129)

Millat Ibrahim is the path of mastering one's inner state, where true power lies in the ability to consciously choose a response rather than being driven by impulsive reactions. It is the art of cultivating awareness so that our responses emerge from clarity, rooted in pure reason and constructive emotions that align with truth.  Who would turn away from this natural alignment, except one who has fragmented and obscured his own being? Indeed, those who walk the path of Millat Ibrahim are among the ṣāliḥīn, the ones who bring harmony and reform through wisdom and conscious action. They are those who surrender their souls to their Rabb. Ibrahim, who is inclined to the truth, and Yaqub, who recognizes the consequences of choices, were entrusted with the mindfulness, to pause, reflect, and respond consciously to whatever life presents. Allah has chosen for you Ad-Deen, the path of conscious alignment with His message, so surrender your anfus (souls) in trust and awareness.  (2:130-132)

Were you aware when Ya‘qub (who understands the consequences of his choices), chose his response? He questioned the thoughts arising from a soul devoid of awareness, asking, "What will you serve after me?" The answer emerged from deep recognition: "We align ourselves with the one indivisible reality, the very essence of truth and we surrender our souls completely to Him."  This is a group of thougts which has been emptied of impurities.  The responses that arose from this state carried their own consequences, just as your present state shapes its own outcomes. The past does not define you, nor are you bound to answer for the responses that emerged from a different level of awareness. (2:133-134)

You assume that those who repent and turn back to the path (Hūdān) and those who assist others in finding the path (Naṣārā) are the guided ones. However, true guidance belongs to those whose responses arise in alignment with truth, rooted in a clear, rational mind and emotions that construct rather than distort. They do not fragment reality nor impose divisions by associating partners with Allah.  They are those who place their security in Allah and in what Allah has revealed to them. They also find security in thoughts inclined toward truth (Ibrahim), thoughts that listen to truth (Ismail), thoughts that remain untouched by falsehood (Ishaq), thoughts that recognize the essence of Ibrahim’s path (Yaqub), and thoughts aligned with like-minded understanding. They take security in what was granted to the one familiar with truth (Musa), the one fortified with ruh ul qudus (Isa), and those who articulate and establish truth from their Rabb (nabiyyun). They make no distinctions between them, for they are all inner voices carrying the message from your Rabb. They are the ones who surrender their anfus, their souls, to Allah (muslimun). Without a doubt, they are the ones who are rightly guided. But if they turn away, they will fall into disunity. Allah alone is sufficient for them. The divine transformation of Allah, from fragmentation to unity, and who is better than Allah in bringing transformation? To Him alone, we surrender as His servants.  (2:135-138)

Do you stand in support, defending, and arguing your understanding that Allah is our Rabb and your Rabb, that our deeds are ours and your deeds are yours, and that we remain sincere in our devotion to Him?  Or do you assume that Ibrahim, who is devoted to truth, Ismail, who listens and responds to truth, Ishaq, who distances himself from falsehood, and Yaqub, who discerns the consequences of one's choices, along with the Asbat, those of like mind and shared purpose, were Hudan, those who turn back in repentance and return to the right path, or Nasara, those who help others on the right path? Surely, you act unjustly by concealing the clear evidence you have received from Allah.  In truth, the statement, "We will serve your Ilaah, your ultimate reality," arises from a state of mind that has freed itself from impurities. Each will bear the consequences of its own actions—what it has earned belongs to it, and what you have earned belongs to you. And you will not be held accountable for the impurities they once carried in the past.  (2:139-141) 

The conceptualized self is shaped by a lifetime of experiences in the physical world, a construct of the conditioned mind, bound by its own limitations, will resists dissolving and ending its dissociation.  Say: To Allah belongs al-mashriq, the unfolding of illumination, and al-maghrib, the veiling into obscurity. He guides those who are willing towards the path of clarity, alignment, and direct realization of truth.  Allah will not let your imaan, your faith in Him and trust in your inherent script, go to waste. He establishes the direction of faith for those who follow the inner voice that delivers ayaati, Al-Kitab, and Hikmah from your Rabb.  (2:142-143)

So Allah commands you to focus towards shatra / designated forbidden part in your surrender (masjidil haraam) like destitute mind (maitah), cruel mind (addamu), magnifying thoughts (khinzir), suffocate mind (munkhoniqah), thoughts which hurt the brain (mawquzah), destructive thoughts (mutaraddiyah), thoughts that lead to argument (nathihah), so that you will be pleased. This is the truth from your Rabb.  Allah is not unaware of what you do.  Those who are given Al Kitab, they know it is the truth.  Allah remind you that you may designate your focus (wajha) towards shatra masjidil haraam.  However, if you follow their desires after knowledge has reached you, you will be among the zhalimin, those who act unjustly.  Those to whom Allah has given Al-Kitab, the inherent script, recognize the Ilaah, the reality of being, no less than they recognize their own conceptualized selves (anfus). Yet, there remains a distinct group of thoughts that persist in concealing the truth. The truth is from your Rabb, so do not be among the doubters. (2:144-147)

Allah acknowledges the diversity of wajhah, the directions and focuses shaped by your community of thoughts in its pursuit of growth. Yet, beyond these representations lies a deeper truth. Wherever your focus may be, transcend beyond the name and form, uncovering and embracing the hidden message that lies beneath. In doing so, you allow the deeper truth to emerge, as Allah reveals that which is obscured by the transient representations of the mind. And from wherever you focus, be on guard not to fall into the unhealthy minds of shatra masjidil haraam, a state that Allah has cautioned against in the sincerity of your surrender so that there will be no dispute among you and Allah will complete His favour on you.  This is the truth from your Rabb.  (2:148-150)

Allah has perfected His favor upon you, just as He sends a Rasul, the inner voice, to unveil the signs, nurture your intellect, and awaken you to your inherent script (Al-Kitab) and wisdom. Through this, you embody the divine masculine qualities bestowed upon you, allowing you to embrace the signs willingly and wholeheartedly. Seek Allah’s guidance with patience by establishing a deep connection with your Rabb (salat). And do not assume that they are lifeless, devoid of truth rather for their true essence remains alive with it though you do not perceive it. (2:151-154)

Patience is a discipline that calms inner turmoil and soothes emotional storms. Allah tests this virtue through experiences of fear, hunger, and loss of wealth, assessing and refining your soul, intellect, and thoughts. Embracing these challenges strengthens your patience, deepens your connection with the Divine, and cultivates inner resilience. So whenever your test comes, say you are for Allah and surely towards Him you will return.  By maintaining patience, you receive Allah's blessings and mercy, fostering a profound connection with your Rabb and receiving divine guidance.  Shafa and Marwah represent a deliberate and transformative journey. Shafa symbolizes your refinement in patience when faced with trials, while Marwah signifies the striking of knowledge that heightens awareness through blessings. Through Shafa, you consistently cultivate patience, and through Marwah, you receive bursts of insight that deepen your understanding and foster spiritual growth. Together, they strengthen your inner resilience and draw you closer to your true self. When clarity about a revelation has not yet emerged, we remain patient, allowing the thought to circulate naturally within our minds. This is not a wrong-doing but a vital part of the process. Allah bestows knowledge gradually, guiding us toward deeper understanding and clarity in due time.  (2:155-158)

When we withhold truth, suppress the clarity that gradually arises, we create inner fragmentation. The more we resist what is evident, the more disconnected we become from our true selves. To align with truth is to embrace openness; to conceal it is to distance our souls from the flow of understanding and harmony.  Except for those who turn back, restore what is right, and clarify the truth.  (2:159-160)

Maut is a state of lifelessness to your true self, where your soul remains unaware of truth when you reject what Allah reveals. In this state, you become one of those distanced from divine flow: deprived of inspiration, growth, and transformation. Your malaa'ikah, the inner authority, cannot establish authority within your consciousness, leaving your mind restless and unsettled. They will remain under the curse, with no relief from punishment and no reprieve.  (2:161-162)

There is only one reality, that is an absolute, singular, irreducible reality of being.  No reality except Him, the merciful (Ar Rahmaan) with His boundless education of factual knowledge, the merciful (Ar Raheem) for the approval of the knowledge (given under the guidance of Ar Rahmaan).  (2:163)

Allah reveals to you knowledge from the higher consciousness, through which He breathes life into your lifeless soul. He spreads the stimulation of awareness, directs the spirit - the essence of truth, and brings into harmony the intricate traces of the synapses of your brain where patterns of understanding interconnect and reinforce one another, enabling you to comprehend with your pure rational mind.  Indeed this is the evolution of your higher consciousness and lower consciousness, the representations that you see when you are not guided and when you are guided and the germination of truth from within Allah's ocean of knowledge, dissolving the restless constructs of the agitated mind and awakening you to your true self. Among agitated minds, love and dependence cling to fleeting constructs, accepting them for sources of security. They equate them with Allah, loving them as they should love the Absolute. But those who find true security in Allah are deeply rooted in love for Allah, the absolute reality of being. There are restless minds driven by hidden motives, leading others to love other than Allah, as equal to love Allah. When they face the consequences of their deception, they will disown their followers, severing all ties as their true intentions come to light. Likewise, those who followed them will turn away in regret, longing for a way back, only to be consumed by the fire of their own inner turmoil, lost in endless remorse.  (2:164-167)

The knowledge that elevates your restless mind and guides you toward your true self is the wisdom from your Lord - pure, lawful, and nourishing to the soul. Do not be led astray by Shaytan, the whispers of despair, lure you toward distorted perceptions shaped by deception and conditioning. These illusions only veil you from the clarity and purity of divine wisdom. Those who follow the footsteps of Shaytan, surrendering to the whispers of despair, will be led toward evil and indecency, speaking about Allah without true understanding. Their words arise not from divine wisdom but from the confines of their fatherly conditioned logic and reasoning. (2:168-170)

Those who reject the message of Allah are like a voice calling into a void, hearing only the echo of their own cries. Spiritually deaf, devoid of wisdom, and blind to insight, they remain trapped within a fragile and distorted mind, the mind that is forbidden by Allah and veiled from truth by its own delusion and cut off from true understanding.  Those who find security in Allah embrace knowledge that is pure, lawful, and nourishing to the soul. What Allah forbids are words born from an unhealthy, fragile mind that is destitute, cruel, self-magnifying seeking and what has been dedicated to other than Allah. (2:171-173)

Those who conceal divine wisdom, altering the truth for their own gain, only corrupt themselves. They feed upon the fire of their own deceit, burning within from the falsity they have embraced. When the moment of establishment arrives, the unveiling of reality, they will find no connection to divine presence, no inner purification, only the weight of their own self-inflicted suffering.  Such are those who abandon wisdom for deception, surrendering inner peace for self-inflicted suffering.  How patient they are in facing their internal conflicts?  The further they move away from truth, the deeper their division becomes, lost in the illusions of their own making.  (2:174-176)

True virtue is not about directing your attention to an illuminated state of mind (formerly devoid of guidance (mashrik) nor to a state of darkness that was once enlightened (maghrib). Rather, true virtue arises from taking refuge in Allah, embracing the moment of ending (the self conceptualised by An-Nas), recognizing inner authority (malaa'ikah), aligning with the inherent script (Al-Kitab), and valuing those who bring forth and establish insight into the unseen (nabiyyin).  With the wisdom received, true virtue manifests as a natural love for sharing knowledge with those who seek it—those who approach you for understanding (qurbaa), those without fatherly rational support (yatamaa), those in need of knowledge (masaakin), those actively journeying toward truth (sabiili), those who inquire with sincerity (saa'ilin), and those who remain vigilant in their pursuit (raqib). It is reflected in deepening your connection with the Sustainer (salat), nurturing intellectual and spiritual refinement (zakaah), those who uphold their commitments with unwavering integrity when they fulfil their covenant and those who are patient. They are truthful in their way (sadaqu) and mindful of Allah.  They are those who are written over them the qisasu / evolution through transformation (cutting off what is impure and changing for the better).  This is the process of unbecoming what has been shaped by conditioning and agitation, allowing the mind to transition from turbulence to clarity, from distortion to pure reason.  In this state of unconditioned awareness, you become a true servant to your Rabb, receiving revelation with complete openness and unconditional acceptance.  From here, your journey continues with aknowledging the facts and relinquish all that disguise as facts.  In qisasu lies the essence of life for you.  Life flourishes through transformation, cutting away the conceptualised self constructed by the agitated mind and allowing the true self to emerge.  (2:177-179)

If you leave a good washiyyah, will and intention, to your rijal in rational support, nisa in emotional support and close related thoughts with full factual knowledge and wisdom, then almauta, the dissolution of your conditioned self is prescribed over you. This is a haq, a rightful obligation upon those who are mindful.  Whoever distorts or alters this washiyyah, this clear intention and alignment with truth, after having heard and understood it, the burden of that distortion rests solely upon those who alter it.  If anyone fears an error or deviation on the part of the one entrusted with executing the will, or notices an act of misalignment in their actions, then let there be a conscious effort to correct the situation between them.  Allah is ever forgiving.  Siyaam has been prescribed for you, to restraint from being unjust in executing Allah’s command, from distorting what has been revealed, and from allowing the mind to be ruled by unchecked impulses and conditioned patterns so that you may be mindful.  (2:180-183) 

The moments of siyaam, self-restraint, are counted.  If any among you is in a state of disorder, exhaustion, or distress or in a state of absence, where the mind is blank, unfocused, or disconnected, then let these moments be accounted for at another time when clarity returns.  For those who find themselves encircled, enclosed by limitations, unable to uphold this discipline then fidyah by feeding the needy, to nourish those thoughts within you that are in need of guidance and realignment. Whoever voluntarily seeks to go beyond the minimum, striving for deeper refinement, it is better for them. And if you truly perceive, you will recognize that to restrain the self from falling into heedlessness, is the higher path.  (2:184)

When you extend your wasiyyah, your intention towards deeper exploration of the unseen, you will experience ramadhan, an intense phase of spiritual heat where all the false burns away, making the truth notable and apparent.  It is in this state of heightened clarity that Al-Quran, the expression of truth in the comprehension of Allah’s message, is revealed as a guide for the nas, the agitated mind.  Within this revelation lies bayyinaat, clear evidence of factual knowledge that illuminates the path and furqan, the conscience, the inner faculty of discernment that distinguishes between the inner voice delivering truth and the mere whispers of one’s conditioned thoughts. Whoever among you bears witness to this apparent reality, recognizing the unfolding of truth, let them exercise self-restraint, ensuring that they do not act unjustly in executing Allah’s message.  If you are in a state of disordered, overwhelmed by exhaustion or inner conflict or in absence, disconnected from clarity, then let them take iddah, account for these moments at another time when they can fully engage with clarity.  For Allah does not impose hardship upon you; rather, He facilitates ease, allowing you to complete your iddah, the account of your journey. This is not about burden, but about alignment so that in witnessing guidance, you may magnify Allah’s presence within you, and in doing so, cultivate deep gratitude for the path revealed.  Allah is indeed near, ever-present, closer than your very thoughts. There is no separation, no distance to be bridged, for His presence is omni-presence. He responds whenever you call, and in return, you are to respond to Him. Place your trust in Him completely, so that you may walk the path of clear, unwavering insight, always attuned to the truth that unfolds within you.  (2:185-186) 

In the absence of guidance, when the mind is enveloped in darkness and uncertainty, it is lawful for you to engage intimately with your nisa—the passionate urges that drive creativity, motivation, empathy, and determination. This engagement is not for indulgence or attachment, but for exploration—for understanding what arises without imposing judgment or drawing premature conclusions.  Your nisa serves as a covering for you, just as you are a covering for them, creating an act of betrayal to your soul for not remaining in its stillness. Enter this exploration with openness, allowing the light of discernment to emerge naturally. Only when the white thread of dawn—the first glimmers of clarity—distinguishes itself from the black thread of night—the lingering darkness—can you begin to perceive reality as it is, rather than as it has been conditioned to appear.  However, do not engage intimately with your nisa when you are in a state of surrender.  Surrender requires silence of your rational mind, detachment from all that fuels identity, and the absence of independent interpretation. When one is fully immersed in surrender, free from the conditioned self, divine guidance is received without distortion. Engaging with nisa at this moment would risk reattaching the rational mind to independent narratives, clouding the clarity that arises in stillness.  These boundaries are not restrictions but safeguards—a means of preserving the sanctity of i‘tikāf, ensuring that it remains a space where you can transcend your independent inclinations and align fully with the unfolding truth.  (2:187)

Do not exchange knowledge for consumption between yourselves with falsehood. For when you do so, you risk corrupting a portion of your understanding, drawing distorted knowledge from your agitated mind with sin, while you know. When this occurs, bring it to your inner authorities, the discerning faculty within your consciousness.  If falsehood is left unchecked, it embeds itself within the mind, reinforcing conditioned beliefs and further agitating the soul.  The ahillah is with the falsehood, you pour your dedication to other than Allah, designated for your agitated mind and reasoning out of it.  The truth does not enter your mental house without examining and reasoning it.  Rather, the path of truth is found through the conscious, mindful pursuit of Allah’s guidance. True adherence to your covenant is marked by awareness, without the intrusion of ego or self-interest.  Dissolving your soul is the process of dissolving the illusion of a separate self—the conditioned identity bound by beliefs, fears, and attachments. It is not an act of destruction but a clear seeing through the false constructs that keep us entangled in division, conflict, and suffering. This dissolution is the gateway to true peace, clarity, and freedom. In shedding the illusion of separateness, you awaken to your true essence, where love, wisdom, and presence flow effortlessly. Allah commands us to confront those who resist this dissolution, but only within the bounds of balance—never exceeding the limits of justice and wisdom.  (2:188-190)

Wherever the illusion of a separate self arises, dissolve it completely. Expel falsehood from the very place where it seeks to expel truth. For deception and entrapment in illusion are far more destructive than the dissolution of false identity itself.  And do not engage with these forces from a state of inner fragmentation, whether it be the mind of lack, cruelty, argumentation, self-magnification, or any other distorted state, because in such conditions, you hold no real advantage.  If these forces engage with you, then you must meet them fully and bring their delusion to dissolution with guidance directly from your Rabb, your true nourisher.  If they have had enough, then leave them.  The dissolution of false identity must continue until the trial is over, and your conscious surrender is entirely to Allah alone.  However, if the illusion itself dissolves before that—if the struggle subsides—then let there be no anxiety, except for the vigilance against unjust thoughts that distort and misplace the truth.  The notable prohibitions correspond to the notable prohibited acts, and the violations you commit serve as a means of evolution through transformation—where impurities are cut away to reveal purity.  So whoever (those unjust thoughts who have found their place in your rational mind) has transgressed against you, respond with equal measure, neither exceeding nor falling short. But remain mindful of Allah, and know that Allah is always with those who are awaren of Him.  Knowledge that remains theoretical does not bring transformation; it must be lived and applied to become real through deep immersion in learning, refining, and embodying truth with self-experience. Do not neglect, ignore, or act from unconscious impulses, for they will lead you to your own downfall. Allah loves those whose experience arises from true knowledge.  (2:191-195)

Do not halt your reflection midway when unraveling the signs you have received. Complete the reasoning so that you may revive and bring to life the deen for Allah. If you are unable to complete your reasoning (Hajj) and revival (Umrah) of your deen due to restrictions that arise, then take what is accessible from the guidance available. Do not burden yourself beyond capacity, lest you deplete your strength.  If any among you falls into disorder—whether through exhaustion, pain, or mental strain—or if one suffers from overstretching the thought process, then a liberation (fidya) is required: either through self-restraint (siyyam) by pausing the act of revival, sincerity (sadaqah) in conveying the truth, or solitude (nusuk) by devoting time and energy to untangling oneself from confusion.  Once the restriction is lifted, whoever has taken advantage of revival (Umrah) as a step toward reasoning (Hajj) must again seek ease in the guidance provided. However, if one does not find security in this, then self-restraint (siyyam) becomes necessary—three moments within the process of reasoning and seven upon returning to a state of stability. This completes ten. This applies to those whose familiar state (ahlu) is not present in the Masjid al-Haram—the space free from restrictive submission. Be mindful of Allah, and know that Allah is unwavering in the pursuit of truth.  (2:196)

Engage in the process of reasoning with integrity, avoid distortion, cultivate mindfulness, and remain steadfast in the on-going journey of evolution.  Hajj, the process of reasoning out and rebuilding your thought process, occurs over known cycles (ashurun maklumaat). So whoever has made it obligatory upon themselves to engage in this reasoning process, let there be no wrongful approach (rafatha), no disobedience (lafusuqa) of Allah’s command, and no contention (jidala) in the process of reasoning. Whatever good you cultivate, Allah is fully aware of it. And take provisions (knowledge from your Rabb) for the journey and remain conscious of Allah, O you who are committed to evolution (ulul albab).  There is no wrongdoing in seeking an advantage from Allah; rather, He encourages you to do so in your pursuit of knowledge, understanding, and self-improvement. It is essential to attain true insight (‘Arafat), where reality is recognized clearly, free from distortion. Allah calls you to embody His divine masculine attributes in both reasoning and action, ensuring that your intellect is guided by strength, clarity, and self-mastery, while avoiding the pitfalls of weak mental states.  Step away from the restless activity of your agitated mind and release the thoughts it has created. Seek forgiveness, clearing the way for divine wisdom to reshape and expand your understanding.  (2:197-199)

The emphasis is on continuing to embody the divine masculine attributes of Allah after fully detaching from the activities of your agitated, conditioned mind. This embodiment is crucial as it anchors you in stability and sustains your transformation. Be mindful that engaging in activities driven by an agitated mind will only deepen your attachment to the physical world and, rather than guiding you toward the dissolution of your souls and the ending of dissociation (of your true self).  (2:200)

Among those with an agitated mind, some seek from Allah goodness in both the duniya (realm of close attachments) and the aakhirah (the ending of duniya), asking for protection from an-nar. Allah will reward them in accordance with what they have brought upon themselves.  Ayyam ma‘dudah refers to pivotal moments that require you to embody divine masculine attributes, ensuring focus, courage, logic, and endurance in your pursuit of truth. However, there are two instances where it is acceptable to either act swiftly or take your time continue in your exploration: when you recognize a state of flow in misunderstanding and when you encounter non-factual knowledge. In both cases, what matters is maintaining mindfulness of Allah.  (2:201-203)

Among those from your agitated, conditioned mind are sayings that may amaze you with its eloquence and persuasiveness, captivating your heart. You may even perceive goodness in them, believing Allah bears witness to their truth.  Allah clarifies, in reality, they are the most contentious among those who engage in disputes.  What happens when you turn away from mindfulness of Allah and become absorbed in the allure of duniya? Surely, you will corrupt your lower consciousness and undoing all that you have cultivated. You will break your covenant after having committed to it and sever your connection (salat) with your Rabb, distancing yourself from the very source of guidance and alignment.  No matter how much goodness you speak to those who have corrupted their lower consciousness, they will take the honor of such saying with sin.  Their attachment to static beliefs becomes a barrier to growth, making it a truly harmful ground for their mental and spiritual development.  (2:204-206) 

Among an-nas (the agitated, conditioned mind), there are those who, out of fear of Allah’s punishment, sell their souls in pursuit of His pleasure. Their surrender is driven by anxiety rather than true understanding.  In contrast, those who find security in Al-Kitab willingly and wholeheartedly dissolve their false identity—shedding their duniya not as an act of destruction, but as ending their dissociation and a return to their true essence. They fully immerse themselves in Islam (a state of complete surrender and presence).  They are those who do not follow the whispers of shayaatin (the scattered, deceptive impulses of the lower mind), for they recognize these forces as a clear enemy—distractions that pull them away from clarity, presence, and truth.  If you slip and follow the footsteps of shaytaan, know that you can always return to your Rabb, the source of truth grounded in facts and its empirical evidences.  (2:207-209)

Truth is always within your reach, but your clouded mind (agitated conditioned mind) and unavailability of inner authority to judge and decide within your consciousness will block you from attaining it.   Instead of working your way out to remove the barriers, you wait for Allah to come giving you shades of truth.  Surely that will not happen.  Truth is already here, and the choice to embrace it or resist it is in your hands.  The signs of truth continuously unfold through direct insights, life experiences, and moments of deep realization. Yet, when the mind is clouded by conditioning, attachment, or resistance, these signs are often ignored, misinterpreted, or distorted.  Allah has granted you the favor of perceiving revelation with a pure, sensible mind. But if you alter this favor, whether by ignoring, misinterpreting, or corrupting it, then know that the consequences are severe.  For those who reject Allah's signs, their sense of fulfillment is rooted in status, possessions, relationships, and social validation, all confined within the realm of their attachments. They measure success by these external markers and mock those who find security in Allah, believing their worldly gains to be the ultimate proof of their worth. Yet, these are merely the adornments (zinat) of life,  distractions that obscure a deeper, lasting truth.  In contrast, those who take security in Allah rise above such illusions when the truth is firmly established. Their fulfillment is not tied to fleeting attachments but to a reality that transcends material gain.  And for those who sincerely seek, divine nourishment, the provision of truth is given freely, without limitation.  (2:210-212)

An-nas, the agitated, conditioned mind, originates from a single ummah, a community of thoughts that share common goals, move toward the same objectives, and uphold a set of principles they are consciously aligned with. Within this framework, the ummah naturally support others who resonate with their movement and beliefs.  From among this ummah, Allah raises nabiyyeen, those equipped with sensible thoughts, to articulate and establish awareness of the unseen, guiding the agitated mind toward alignment with divine laws, principles, and systems. Their role is to bring clarity to what is represented in the lower consciousness, ensuring it is governed in accordance with divine order.  Allah grants guidance to those who sincerely seek the straight path.  Certainly, you will not attain Jannah, the garden of hidden knowledge, until you undergo the framework necessary to receive divine guidance, just as those before you did. This journey demands perseverance, especially when you are tested by adversity and hardship. It is through these trials that you become receptive to the signs (ayaati), wisdom (hikmah), and Al-Kitab, as delivered by your inner voice. These revelations serve as a reminder that the help of Allah is always near, guiding you toward deeper understanding and alignment with truth.  (2:213-214) 

How do you apply the hidden knowledge you receive in your journey of awareness and transformation? The answer lies in directing goodness toward:

  • Nurturing both rational and emotional support – Honoring the independent rational thinking (rijal) and heart (nisa) free from impurities.
  • Uplifting those closely connected to you – Offering guidance and support to those who share your path or wisdom.
  • Helping those lost in guidance – Assisting those who lack clarity and direction, providing them with insight and encouragement.
  • Sharing knowledge with those in need – Extending wisdom to those who seek understanding but lack the means to acquire it.
  • Supporting those actively seeking the path – Encouraging and guiding fellow seekers on their journey toward truth.

True transformation happens when divine knowledge is not just understood but lived and compassionately shared. The more you give, the more you will receive.  (2:215)

The journey of self-realization necessitates the dissolution of the separate self, the conditioned identity (egoistic self) that clings to attachments, fears, and illusions. This process, Al-Qital, is written upon you, meaning it is an essential and inescapable phase of spiritual evolution. Yet, the ego resists, perceiving its own dissolution as suffering, loss, or even annihilation.  However, what you resist may, in truth, be your greatest liberation. You may reject something, yet it holds the key to your growth. Likewise, you may chase after something, yet it keeps you bound in limitation. Allah knows, and you do not know—divine wisdom sees beyond the illusions of personal preference. Trusting this wisdom means surrendering to the process of self-reform, allowing divine knowledge to dissolve false boundaries and reveal the vast, limitless expanse of consciousness.  (2:216)

The greatest transgression is killing of the true self, replacing it with the illusion of a separate, conceptual identity. This is the ultimate shahril haram, a notable prohibition, because it leads to a life disconnected from divine truth, entrapped in the illusions of the conditioned mind.

To hinder oneself or others from Allah’s way, to reject divine guidance, and to exist in a prohibited unhealthy state of submission, a mind clouded by fear, cruelty, distorted perceptions, or irrationality, are greater offenses in the nearness of Allah. The greatest trial (fitnah) is the constant inner struggle that veils reality, preventing alignment with truth.  The conditioned mind, driven by attachments and fears, will not cease its attempts to pull you away from conscious obedience to divine order. If you turn back, abandoning the path of truth, you become fayamut, lifeless, devoid of awareness. Such a state leads to a meaningless existence, both in duniya (the world of attachments and illusions) and aakhirah (the dissolution of those illusions). Those who remain trapped in this conflict, their rational and emotional faculties misaligned with truth, will find themselves in perpetual inner turmoil (an-nar), a fire that consumes clarity and peace. In such a state, they remain imprisoned within their own self-created suffering.  (2:217)

The journey towards divine truth is an active transformation. Those who take security in Al-Kitab, aligning their awareness with hidden knowledge, are seekers of certainty. They abandon the illusions of foolishness and ignorance (hijrah), and conduct a spiritual shift from fragmented perception to clear awareness.  They struggle in the way of Allah (jahaduu), engaging in the battle against self-deception, false identifications, and mental conditioning. This struggle is what opens the door to Rahmatallah—the vast, abundant knowledge embedded in Allah’s abstract system of education. True mercy is knowledge, the unveiling of reality, the dissolving of limitations, and the expansion of consciousness.  Allah is Ghafur—forgiving, meaning He removes the veils of ignorance for those who seek clarity. He is Rahim—merciful, in that He continuously showers wisdom upon those willing to receive it. The seekers who strive towards truth are not left to wander alone; they are met with divine support, guidance, and the ever-unfolding education that leads them to higher awareness.  (2:218)

The pursuit of truth requires an open and engaged mind. Yet, two common pitfalls hinder this journey: suppressing the natural flow of thought (al-khamr) and accepting knowledge without effort (al-maysir). Suppression occurs when the mind resists exploration, avoiding deep inquiry into the signs it receives. Conversely, unearned knowledge, gained without struggle, lacks depth and true understanding.  While both may offer temporary ease or superficial benefits, their consequences outweigh any perceived advantage. Suppressed thought leads to stagnation and ignorance, while effortless knowledge fosters shallowness and illusion.  What is put into practice from al-khamr and al-maysir?  The response is afwa—that which has been wiped out or made redundant, suggesting that revelation or knowledge not acted upon fades away, and not integrated into daily life become obsolete. Allah makes His signs clear, but their true meaning is only realized by those who contemplate, reflect, and embody the message in their lived experience.  (2:219)

Life unfolds between two realms, that is duniya, the realm of close attachments and relationships, and aakhirah, the realm of ending duniya, bringing an end to the illusion of separation. The transition between these states is essential for self-development, yet many remain unguided (yatama), disconnected from their Rabb, their inner source of factual knowledge and wisdom.  The best approach for the yatama is islah, a reform that nurtures growth and integration. If you mix duniya and aakhirah in your life, recognizing the interplay between worldly engagement and spiritual awakening, then they are thoughts from a brotherly relationship. Allah knows those who corrupt (mufsida) and those who reform (muslihi). Transformation is not about blind detachment but wise discernment, guided by empirical truth and inner alignment.  If Allah had willed, He could have imposed hardship, forcing spiritual awakening through difficulty. Yet, divine wisdom allows each person to navigate this journey in accordance with their own realization, ensuring that true understanding emerges not from coercion but through conscious awareness and self-discovery.  (2:220)

Do not intermingle or enter into union with thoughts that associate others with Allah.  Whether they arise from the feminine qualities of your emotional mind or the masculine aspects of your rational mind, these are constructs that fragment awareness and draw you away from inner unity.  Allah instructs you that you do not merge with these associative thoughts until they yu’minna, take refuge and find security in the Oneness of Allah.  A thought that is ʿamatun,  aligned in service, receptive, and open to divine guidance is better than one that associates, even if it dazzles you.  And likewise, do not intermingle with associative thoughts that arise from your own independent, agitated mind until they find security in Him.  A thought that is ʿabdun, in service, actively giving direction and aligned in trust is better than one that associates, even though it dazzels you.  These associative thoughts continuously invite you to an-Nar,  the inner fire of conflict, agitation, and dissonance with your true self.  But Allah invites you, again and again, to His jannah / garden of hidden knowledge, and to maghfirah, the state of deep knowing, by His permission.  He makes His āyāt, His clear signs evident to the agitated mind (an-nās), so that they may awaken, reflect, and return to the path of inward harmony.  (2:221) 

In your journey of awareness, you will encounter intense surges of emotional energy, mahidh, the overflow of passionate urges that transgress their natural bounds. These emotional flows, though integral to your humanity, become a source of ‘azhan, a hurt, when left unchecked. When your inner drives such as creativity, desire, motivation, empathy become excessive, they can cloud clarity, distort perception, and pull you into impulsive or reactive patterns.  Allah instructs that during this overflow, detach from an-nisa, the energies that stir emotion and fuel motivation. Give these urges space to settle; do not engage or draw near until purification occurs until these forces are realigned with inner clarity and conscious intention.  Once purified, return to your emotional drives in the manner Allah has shown: with wisdom, restraint, and love. Emotional energy is not to be repressed but to be aligned, directed from a place of balance and mindfulness. Allah loves those who return, those who repeatedly bring their awareness back to the source, and those who purify who refine their inner life until their actions are no longer dictated by overflow, but by presence. This verse is a call to emotional responsibility, to become aware of your inner tides, and to honour the process of purification that leads to wholeness.  (2:222)

Your nisa, the emotional and passionate drives that give rise to creativity, empathy, motivation, and a longing for truth are not to be suppressed or rejected. Rather, they are a cultivation, a fertile ground from which the soul can grow in awareness, understanding, and alignment with divine guidance. These inner urges are not obstacles but invitations, if approached with clarity, transform raw emotion into the wisdom of lived experience.  So come to this field of cultivation however your sincere awareness leads you. Explore and engage these emotional energies in a way that supports the unfolding of your nafs, your soul. But always do so with taqwa, mindfulness of Allah. Let this mindfulness act as a lamp that illuminates the path, ensuring your engagement is not led by compulsion or excess, but by love, integrity, and purpose.  Know with certainty that you are journeying towards the meeting with Him, toward union with the truth of your being. Let every engagement with your inner passions be an act of advancement, not indulgence. And as you transform these urges into understanding, offer bashshiri, sensible, reassuring thoughts, to those who take security in their rational awareness, the mukminin. For the path of self-cultivation is not solitary; it ripples outward, offering stability and insight to others who are walking home to the same source.  (2:223)

Do not make Allah a display to justify or prove the rightness (aymaanukum) of your position. Truth does not need to be paraded as a personal claim or wielded to affirm the superiority of one's perspective. When the name of Allah is used to sanctify personal agendas or opinions, it creates a veil over true understanding and fractures the possibility of inner reform.  The purpose of invoking Allah is not to validate your certainty, but to deepen your truthfulness to your inner covenant. That truthfulness must be rooted in taqwa, in sustained mindfulness of Allah’s presence, not egoic righteousness.  True alignment with Allah leads to reform within an-nas, the agitated, reactive states of mind. It brings stillness to the chaos, clarity to the confusion, and harmony to the fragmented self.  Allah is Hearing and Knowing.  Allah does not hold you accountable for what is unintentional in your claims of being right (aymaanikum), those thoughts or words spoken without awareness, shaped by habit or inherited beliefs. These expressions are often superficial, echoes of the conditioned self rather than rooted in conscious intention.  What matters is what your hearts (kulubuhum) have truly earned, where your manifested actions result from your pull of desire. It is the unseen movement within that shapes the course of your becoming.  For it is from the heart that pull you to the meaning, decisions made, and attachments formed.  Allah is Forgiving and Forbearing. He does not rush to punish but gives space for self-awareness to emerge. His forgiveness is not merely the removal of blame, it is the invitation to return to alignment. His forbearance is the compassionate holding of your process, allowing you to grow through your missteps and veils, gently drawing you back to the center of truth.  (2:224-225)

When you fall short in your reform and self-alignment due to the pull of your nisa, passionate emotional drives, it is prescribed that you enter a period of waiting, a suspension of action, holding space for asharu arba’ati, notable thoughts that you can hold on to.  This is not random delays but intentional conscious spaces to observe, re-centre, and allow truth to emerge, an inward retreat for self-examination, realignment, and stillness before any meaningful return.  Should you return, that is, if you reclaim your sincerity, come back to your inner truth, then Allah is Ghafur and Raheem. He not only forgives, but also gently restores you with insight and understanding. His mercy is the illumination that dissolves confusion and sets the heart back on the straight path.  This verse reminds us that falling short is not failure, but a signal to pause, reflect, and allow divine wisdom to guide the return.  And if you decide on talaq, that is, if you consciously choose to separate from your nisa, passionate urges that once fueled your journey, it signifies a pivotal inner decision. It is the recognition that certain attachments, feelings, or impulses are no longer aligned with the deeper truth or the path of integration.  This talaq is not merely an abandonment of emotion, but a sacred discernment, to release what no longer supports inner coherence or spiritual clarity. It marks a moment when the soul chooses truth over familiarity, awareness over emotional entanglement.  (2:226-227)

Those who are separated from their nisa,  passionate urges, are to remain with their souls for three cycles or readings, conducted by your rational mind. These cycles allow motivation, creativity, empathy, and determination to re-emerge in the pursuit of deeper knowledge.  So even in separation, the readings continue, for the hidden messages within them become the foundation for your transformation.  Therefore, Allah does not permit the concealment of what has been revealed and conceived within your inner womb of awareness.  If you recognize that your continuation without nisa depends on others, ensure that they are rooted in knowledge, and that their rational mind carries a darajah, a degree of maturity, clarity, and refined discernment.  (2:228)

Separation from the nisa, the passionate urges, unfolds in two distinct phases.  Either you hold to it with ma‘rūf, full recognition, understanding, and presence,  or you release it with iḥsān — goodness, grace, and a completeness in the experience.  It is not lawful for you to hold on or release based on your own conditions or preference, unless both fear that they cannot establish and uphold the boundaries set by Allah within.  In other words, if either side of the self, rational or passionate senses imbalance, where alignment with truth becomes unstable, it must be acknowledged.  And if you sense that balance cannot be maintained, then there is no blame on either side to offer a release, a ransom from fear, so that harmony may be restored. This is not escape, but conscious sacrifice, the giving up of attachment to preserve inner integrity.  These are the ḥudūd, the living boundaries of Allah, the edges where truth meets distortion.  Do not transgress them. For whoever steps beyond these boundaries misplaces truth and becomes ẓālim.  (2:229)

Then, if he separates from her that is, if the rational self detaches from the nisa, the passionate urges after prior separation, then she is not lawful to him again unless she has experienced tankiḥa, a form of inner union or affliction, with another integrated pair of qualities.  This zawj is a dynamic blending of zakar, the divine masculine attributes like clarity, focus, and resolve and untha, the divine feminine capacities like love, receptivity, and acceptance.  Only after this inner affliction can the original union be reconsidered.  Then, if she (the passionate urge) is again separated from this second pairing, there is no junaḥa, no inclination toward wrongdoing, if the two return to each other, provided they are ẓanna, inwardly convinced that they are now able to establish and uphold, the boundaries set by Allah.  These are the ḥudūd, the limits, thresholds, or edges established by Allah. He makes them clear for your stabilized thoughts, that are truly ya‘lamūn, capable of knowing through direct inner recognition.   (2:230)

And when you separate from your nisa, the passionate urges, the emotional currents that fuel your motivation, creativity, empathy, and determination and when you have reached the term, and the cycle is complete, then either hold to them with ma‘rūf, full awareness, recognition, and understanding of their nature, or release them with the same ma‘rūf, letting go not from denial or fear, but from clarity and conscious discernment.  Both holding and releasing are sacred — when done from knowing, not compulsion.  And do not hold on to them with the intention of lita‘tadū to transgress or distort the boundaries (ḥudūd) set by Allah.  Do not cling to what has served its purpose merely out of habit, fear, or personal will. To do so is to lose alignment with the natural rhythm of inner evolution.  Whoever does this has certainly wronged his own nafs, soul, by placing personal desire above divine balance, by disrupting the order within.  And do not treat the āyāt,  the signs of Allah as something trivial, something to toy with.  Do not be careless or distracted in your engagement with the signs that emerge.  Every sign is sacred, precise, and meant to awaken you.  And udhkurū — consciously embody — the divine masculine attributes within: be focused, clear, structured, and assertive, recall the ni‘mah that Allah has endowed upon you, and what has been revealed to you of the kitāb, the inherent script woven into your being and the ḥikmah, the factual, experiential understanding by which He instructs and aligns you.  (2:231)

And when you separate from the nisa, the passionate emotional urges that fuel motivation, creativity, empathy, and determination and they have reached their term, when their process has matured and completed its natural cycle, then do not restrict them (do not bind, suppress, or constrain these energies) from entering into nikāḥ, union or deep engagement with their azwāj, their integrated pairings.  This pairing is the conscious fusion of zakara, divine masculine qualities like clarity, structure, and assertiveness and untha, divine feminine qualities such as receptivity, compassion, and intuition.  Let them unite inwardly, when they agree among themselves with ma‘rūf, recognition, understanding, and alignment with truth.  This inner union is not a regression, but a renewal, one that emerges from clarity, not attachment.  This is what is instructed for those among you who trust (yu’minūn) and take security in Allah, in the singular, unshaken presence and in the yawm al-ākhir, the moment of true ending.  And Allah knows while you know not.  (2:232)



In the realm of limited perspective, Allah strengthens the mukmin (those who took security in Al Kitab with their unfeterred independent thoughts and emotions) by instilling deep affection within their hearts and establishes the fundamental truth that “there is no ilaha (reality) except Allah”, the ultimate and absolute reality. The education of the mukmin begins with Allah presenting evidence and a choice between two systems: ladunni (directly receiving messages from your Rabb) and knowledge obtained through own independent thoughts and emotions. The knowledge acquired through one’s own mentation involves the process of thinking, analyzing, and synthesizing information to generate understanding. Ladunni refers to the revelation received from your Rabb, a divinely inspired knowledge. Using the faculties of your independent rational mind, you learn, reflect, grow, and mature in understanding the revelation given by our Rabb.  

The question arises as to which system of education is superior: the one who is aware as a result of their own independent thinking or the one who receives the message directly from their Rabb, obtaining inspiration and guidance from Him. Indeed, ladunni and our own independent thinking work harmoniously together. When we receive divine inspiration and interpretations from our Rabb, it forms a foundation for our understanding. We then engage in our own thinking and contemplation to delve deeper into comprehending and assimilating that knowledge. This synergy between ladunni and our own independent thinking allows for a more holistic and well-rounded comprehension of the divine teachings, enabling us to deepen our connection with our Rabb and navigate our journey of faith with wisdom and clarity.  However, it's crucial to be aware of the significant danger of overcommitting to our own independent thinking. When the ego becomes entrenched in our contemplation, it distorts our perception, conditioning the truth to fit its own biases and desires. In this state, genuine insight becomes elusive, as the mind becomes entangled in its own web of preconceptions and self-interest. 

Allah opens a pathway for knowledge to flow, transforming our agitated minds and rejuvenating our true selves. We are blessed with inner voices that deliver messages for our guidance, along with Ruh ul Qudus, which brings spirit of the truth into clarity. Allah’s command is for us to cleanse our minds from all impurities according to His guidance, establishing that the truth is based on factual knowledge. When Allah accepts us into Ar- Rahman, His abstract system of education, the inner voice will deliver the messages, calming our restless minds. By seeking the truth based on factual knowledge, we lay a solid foundation for our mental well-being. The process of refining our thoughts and reasoning unfolds continuously, leading us closer to the truth. Ultimately, guidance from the higher consciousness breathes life into our lower consciousness, nurturing siratal mustaqeem, the divine path set by Allah.  

 

Self-inquiry is a potent tool for lifting veils of unenlightenment. It involves questioning our beliefs, biases, prejudice, discrimination and assumptions. Through self-inquiry, we can uncover the hidden layers of ignorance and gain deeper insights into the true nature of reality. Finally, in the aakhirah, where the dissociation of the true self ends, the duniya (closed attachments and relationships including body, mind and soul) are dissolved, leaving only the true self. Allah, there is no independent existence apart from Him, the Ever Living, the Ever Establish, the ultimate reality. 
          

With the name of Allah, no-thing like the likeness of Him, whose name encompasses the measures and essence of all existence, both known and unknown to His servants, and the unfolding sequence of events leading to all observable outcomes.  The Rahmaan, the Raheem. Rahmaan signifies the boundless system of educating the factual knowledge, while Raheem reflects the grace and mercy extended to those who sincerely seek and engage with this wisdom under Ar-Rahmaan. 
 
           
2:1      Alif, Lam, Meem.  Alif signifies the singular, fundamental, irreducible reality of being. Lam represents the manifestation of reality in the form of His representations, and Meem is the letter of death, signifying the 'aakhirah', the ending of dissociation (An-nafs and duniya)
 

2:2      That is Al-Kitab, the inherent script (from your Rabb - your sustainer, nourisher, and guide to the right path), no doubt in is a guidance for the muttaqūn, those who are mindful, (deeply attentive, and observe conditioned thoughts without judgment, choosing whether to act on them or let them pass like clouds in the sky).

2:3    Those who yukminun / take security (in Al Kitab) with the ghaibi / knowledge of the unseen (that is, taking security in the truth hidden behind its inherent values of the signs represent) and they yuuqimu / establish (rooted, solidified and installed) the salaat / connections (to receive and download hidden messages delivered by rasul / inner voice) and they yunfiqun / self-experience (the reform by putting the knowledge into practice) what razaknaahum / We provide them 

2:4      And those yukminun / took security (in Al Kitab) with what We revealed to you and what We revealed from before and they are yuukinun / certain with their aakhirah / ending the dissociation (by dissolution of duniya - closed attachments and relationships). 

2:5     They are those upon them are guidance from their Rabb / Lord.  And they are the muflihun / successful ones (those who break the frontiers of its representations).

2:6    Indeed, those who kafaru / reject (what is revealed), it is the same for them whether you warn them or do not warn them, they will not yukminun / take security.  

2:7       Allah khatama / sealed over their qalbu / heart (pull of affection and emotion) and over sam'ihim / their hearing and over absarihim / their insight ngishawatun / received a cover (veil).   And for them is a great azaab / punishment.

2:8       And from an nas / the agitated mind are those who say aamana billah / we took security with Allah and with the yawmil aakhiri / moment of ending the dissociation (by dissoving the dunia, close attachments and relationships) but they are not with mukminin / those who take security (with their unfettered independent rational mind).

2:9       They seek to deceive Allah and those who aamanu / take security (in Al Kitab), and they deceive not except their own anfus / souls and they are not yash'urun / aware (in the  recognition of truth).

2:10     In qulubihim / their heart (pull of affection and emotion) is maradhun / state of disorder (sick, tired, in pain and short of knowledge), so Allah has dahumu / increased / prolonged their maradhan / disorder and for them is the azaab / punishment of extreme pain with what they yakzibun / deny.

2:11     And when it is said (reasoned) for them, "Do not be the cause of tufsidu / corruption in the al ardh / lower consciousness," they say, "Surely we are muslihun / reformers / one who correct ourselves.

 
 
2:12    Beware, it is they (with their conditioned mind) are the cause of mufsidu / those who corrupt (the covenant and lower consciousness), but they are not yash'urun / aware (in the recognition of truth). 
 

2:13    And when it is said for them (to the corrupted mind), aaminu / take security (in Al Kitab) as an-nas / the agitated mind have trusted, they say, "should we feel secured as the sufaha' / unwise have felt secured?"  Beware, it is they themselves who are the sufaha' / unwise, but they do not know.

2:14    And when they laqu / measure (to determine) those who aamanu / take security (in Al Kitab), they say, "We feel safe / secured", but when they are kholau / alone (empty of guidance from Allah) with shayaatin / acts arises from state of despair, they say, "indeed, we are with you, mustahzi'un / those who disregard / not mindful (because they follow their own conditioned mind)".

2:15    Allah yastahzi'u / will disregard / contempt them and prolong them in tughyaanihim / their actions of taking security in falsehood, (while) they wander blindly.

2:16    They are the ones who have purchased the process of error (in exchange) for guidance, so tijaaratuhum / their exchange deal has brought no profit, nor were they guided.

2:17    Masaluhum / their example is like example of those who istawqada / strives to ignite naran / a bright perception (so that they can see better), then when it 'adho'a / shines penetratingly what was around him,  Allah zahaba / took away with their nur / light and left them in zhulumaat / darkness (created by their limited and conditioned rational mind), they do not have insight. 

2:18    Summun / deaf (not able to hear the signs), buk'mun / dumb (not able to understand the signs) and umyun / blind (not able to have insights of the signs) - so they will not return.

2:19     Or like striking them from the higher consciousness, in it is darkness and threatening and perplexing (message like maut).  They set their direction in 'azhanihim / their desire to abuse (the revelation that Allah has given) from the insensibilities of fearing maut / lifeless (to body, mind and soul). And Allah encompasses with the kaafirin / rejecters. 

2:20     The perplexity almost yakhtofu / seizes their insight.  Every time it adha'a / shining penetratingly (revealing the revelation) for them, they walk in it (ponder, contemplate), and when it azlama / had injustice upon them, they qamu / establish (what they perceived).  And if Allah had willed, He could have taken away their understanding and their insight.  Indeed, Allah measures over all things.

2.21    O an-nas / the agitated mind, serve your Rabb / Lord (Nourisher and sustainer of factual knowledge), one who evolves you (with the factual knowledge provided) and those from before so that you become tattaqun / mindful. 

2:22     The one who has made for you al-ardh / the lower consciousness firasha / development (spread and expanded) and as-samaa / the higher consciousness, a bana'an / a construct (of the absolute truth) and caused to reveal from as-samaa / the higher consciousness maa'an / flowing knowledge (of facts) and caused to bring forth with it from al-thamara / the intelligence rizqan / a provision for you.  So do not set for Him andadan / equals (like the agitated mind as nourisher equals to your Rabb) while you know.

2:23     And if you are in doubt from what We have revealed upon Our servant, then produce / bring with suratin / overpowering influence from mislihi / its similarity and ud'u / invoke your shuhada / testimony from duni / other than Allah, if you are shaadikin / truthful. 

2:24      So if you not do (produce suratin) and never do, fattaku / then be mindful of the nar / burning sensation of internal conflict, which waqudu / fuel an-nas / the agitated mind and the hijarah / hard headed minds, prepared for the kaafirin / rejecters (to what is revealed).

2:25     And bashar / rational and sensible thoughts (who trust the transformation) are those who aamanu / took security (in what was revealed) and do the solihaati / corrective deeds, that for them is Jannat / Gardens (of hidden knowledge) flow from beneath which rivers (of hidden knowledge).  Whenever they are ruziqu / provided from it, rizqan / a provision of thamaratin / increased intellect, they will say, "this is ruziqna / our provision from before."  And it is produced with it, mutasyabihan / a resemblance (a representation to the truth).  And for them in it are azwajun mutahharah / integrated pair of one who is pure (of zakara / divine fatherly support of masculine thoughts and emotions, and unsa / divine motherly support of feminine thoughts and emotions), and they will abide in it eternally.

2:26     Indeed, Allah layastahyi / will not be alive (to you) if you strike masalan / an example as ba'udhatan / a part of it (the revelation) and what (is) over it (also as that is over the revelation).  Then as for aamanu / those who are secured (with the revelation), they will know that it is the haq / truth from their Rabb / Lord.  But as for those who kafaru / rejected (the revelation), then they will say, "what did Allah intends with this masalan / an example?  And He lets astray many with it and yahdi / guides many with it.  And He will not let astray with it except the faasiqin / who disobeyed command of Allah.

2:27     Those who yanqudu / break the ahda / covenant of Allah after misaakihi / committing it and severe that which Allah has ordered with it yuusola / remain connected (to receive and download the hidden knowledge) and they themselves yufsidu / become corrupted in al-ardh / the lower consciousness. They are those who are the khosirun / losers.

2:28     How can you takfuru / reject (what was revealed) with Allah when you were amwaatan / lifeless (without awareness of truth for the soul) and you were ahyaa / brought to life (aware), then yumitukum / you let yourself lifeless (when the content of consciousness is falsehood and illusory), then yuhyikum / you came to life (of the true self), and then to Him you will turja'un / repeatedly return.

2:29     It is He who khalaqa / evolved for you what in the ardh / lower consciousness jami'an / altogether.  Then (He) istawaa /  adapt the samaa' / higher consciousness and then sawwahunna / shaped (mould) them sab'a / congregate higher consciousness, and He is Well-Acquianted with all things.

2:30     And when your Rabb / Lord (nourisher and sustainer of of the truth) said to the malaikah / sovereign inner authority (where authority to interpret is removed from the agitated mind and is placed within the consciousness field), " Indeed I will ja-ilun / make in the ardh / lower consciousness kholifah / a manifestation where there will be signs as representation (to the truth). They said, "Will you make in it who are yufsidu / corrupt in it and the influence of the dimaa'a / brutality and we are occupied with your approvals (abundant knowledge) and We nuqadisu / make perfect (by qudus / purify) for You.  He (Rabb) said, "Indeed I know that which you do not know." 

2:31     And learning was imparted to Adam / who possesses inner authority to interpret and judge (when it is removed from the agitated mind and placed within the consicousness field) , the asmaa'a / names (with hidden meaning that encompassed the measurements of existence and the unfolding chain of events leading to all observable outcomes) all of them then He presented them to the malaaikah / sovereign inner authority (where authority of judgment is placed within the consciousness field) then said, "inform me with asmaa'i / names of these (of known existence), if you are truthful.

2:32     They said, "Subhanaka / Glory be to You (for the swim to explore Your abundant knowledge); we have no knowledge except what You have taught us. Indeed, it is You who is the Knower, the Wise (provider of hidden knowledge beyond limitation)."  
 
 
 
2:33     He said, "O Adam / who possesses inner authority to interpret and judge (when it is removed from the agitated mind and placed within the consicousness field), inform them with their asmaa / names (where meaning encompasses the measurements of existence and the unfolding chain of events leading to all observable outcomes).  And when he had informed them with their names, He said, "Did I not tell you that I know the ghaiba / knowledge of the unseen of as-samaa / the higher consciousness and al-ardh / the lower consciousness?  And I know what is manifested (in the world of matter with inherent values representing the truth) and what is concealed (in the spiritual realm).
 

2:34     And when We said to the malaikah / inner authority (where authority to interpret is removed from the agitated mind and is placed within the consciousness field) "Be usjudu / humbly submissive for Adam / who possesses inner authority (to place the interpretation and judgment within the consciousness fiels).  So they fasajadu / became humbly submissive except iblees / those wrapped in despair (where the rational mind did not completely fall silent), he refused and became arrogant / proud, and he was from al kafireen / the rejecters.

2:35     And We said, "O Adam / who possesses inner authority to interpret and judge (when it is removed from the agitated mind and placed within the consicousness field), us'kun / calm down / remain still, you and zawjuka / your integrated pair (zakara / divine fatherly masculine thoughts and emotions and unsa / divine motherly feminine thoughts and emotions) of al-jannah / the hidden garden of knowledge and both kula / consume knowledge from it freely wherever you both desire.  And do not come near this shajarata / tree / word (thoughts that given birth by agitated mind), else you be from the zhalimin / unjust (putting things in wrong place like accepting sign, a representation, as the reality).

2:36     Then the shaytan / act arises from despair, made both slip from it and drove from what they were in it.  And We said, "Degrade yourselves all of you, as aduwwun / acts exceeding limit (transgress) to one another, and you will have in the ardh / lower consciousness mustaqarrun / those who ongoingly desirous a place for settlement and mata'un / enjoyment (from what is provided by the wrong doings) for a period."

2:37     Then Adam / who receive education of the unseen, encountered from his Rabb / Lord kalimaatin / words, fataaba / then he turned upon it.  Indeed it is He who accept repentance, the Rahim / Merciful (for the provisions of Allah's system of education).

2:38     We said, "Degrade from it (the hidden garden of knowledge), all of you.  Then if you receive hudan / guidance from Me, whoever follows My guidance, there will be no haufun / fear upon them, nor will they yahzanun / grieve.

2:39     And those who kafaru / rejected and kazzabu / denied with ayaatina / Our signs, they are those (own independent thoughts and emotions) who will be ashhabu / companions of an-nar / burning sensation of internal conflict (that burn an-nas), they will abide in it perpetually.

2:40     O bani israel / those who construct their spiritual journey seeking guidance, izkuru / embody the divine fatherly support (masculine thoughts and emotions) of My nikmati / favour (life nourished well with knowledge) which I anaam / granted ease with elevated knowledge, upon you and fulfil with ahdi / covenant and I will fulfil your covenant, and farhabun / be devoted (only to Me).

2:41     And aaminu / take security with what I have revealed to musaddiqan / one who conformed to what is with you, and do not be the first to kafiri / reject with it and do not tashtaru / purchase with My ayaati / signs a small price, and fattaqun / be  mindful of Me alone.

2:42     And do not talbisu / wrap the haq / truth with the batili / falsehood, and you suppress / conceal the haq / truth and while you know. 

2:43     And aqimu / establish (to get the truth rooted, solidified and ingrained) the salaat / connection (where the hidden messages is downloaded and received) and pursue the zakaah / mental development (growth) and warka'u / submit with those who are participating in raaki'un / submission.

2:44     Do you ata'muru / continuously order an-nas / the agitated mind with the birri8 / truthfulness and tansau / abandon anfusakum / your souls, while you follow Al kitab / the inherent Script, do you not ta'qilun / comprehend? 

2.45     And seek help with the sobri / patience and the salaat / connections (to receive and download the message) and that it truly is a great burdensome except upon the khoshi'in / humble submission (without ego and self-interest).

2:46     They are those who are yazhunnun / of the opinion (formulated based on what they know of Al kitab) that they will certainly meet their Rabb / Lord, and to Him they will roji'un / return. 

2:47     O Bani Israel / those who construct their spiritual journey seeking guidance, uzkuru / embody divine fatherly support with masculine thoughts and emotions of My nikmati / favour which I anaam / granted ease with elevated knowledge, upon you and that I fadhaltukum / gave you advantage, over aalamin / all the empirical and factual knowledge. 


2:48      Wattaqu / and be mindful of a moment, no nafsun / a soul shall avail (another) nafsin / soul shay'an / a thing and not yuqbalu / accepted from it shafa'atun / an intercession (step-in with the truth from Al Kitab), and not be taken from it adlun / justice, and they shall not be yunsorun / helped.
 

2:49     And when najjainakum / We secured you from ahle firaun / those who personified with superiority complex, afflicting you suu'al azaba / severe punishment, yuzabbihuna / mutilate your abna / construct (of your conditioned rational mind) and keeping your nisa / emotional urges (emotional drive that fuel motivation, creativity, empathy and determination to pursue knowledge and morality), alive.  And that was a great trial from your Rabb / Lord.

2:50     And when We distinguished albahra / the sea of knowledge with you then secured you and drowned aala firaun / those who are affiliated with superiority complex, while you were tanzurun / examining it intellectually. 

2:51    And when We promised Musa / who is strong in rational thinking, arbaiina / self restrained (from relying on own independent thoughts and emotions) lailatan / a darkness then you took the ijla / hastiness from after him and you were zhalimun / unjust (putting things in wrong place like accepting the signs / representation, as the reality).

 
 
2:52    Then after that We forgave you from before so that you might tashkurun / be grateful. 
 

2:53    And when We gave Musa / who is strong in rational thinking, al kitab / the inherent script and al furqan / the conscience (ability to distinguish the inner voice who deliver the divine message and a whisper of own thoughts) so that you may be guided aright.

 
 
2:54    And when Musa / who is strong in rational thinking said to his qaum / group of established thoughts (that disobey): "O my qaum / group of established thoughts !  Verily, you have wronged your anfus / souls bi-iitikhaadhi / by accepting your ij'la / hastiness.  So tubuu / turn in repentance over baari'ikum / your dissociation and fa'tulu / kill (dissolve all attachments by education of the truth) anfusakum / your souls, that will be better for you in the nearness of your baari'ikum / dissociation then He accept your repentance. Truly, He is the One Who accepts repentance, the Most Merciful (for bestowing the education of the truth). 
 
 
 
2:55    And when you said: "O Musa / who is strong in rational thinking!  Never (will) we nukminu / take security for you until we see Allah jahratan / manifestly." But you were seized with an insensible thought (of fearing maut to your body, mind and soul) while you were looking. 
 

2:56    Then ba'athnakum / We raised you up (with awareness of truth for the soul) from after mautikum / your lifeless state (without awareness of truth for the soul), so that you may be grateful. 

2:57    And dholalna / We provided shade ghamama / covering over you and We reveal al manna / the strength (when you are weak) and as salwaa / the endurance (with patience and comfort ); kuluu / consume knowledge from the best whatever our provision for you. They did not wrong Us but wronged their own anfus / souls.

2:58    And when We said: "Enter this al qariah / community of thoughts (connected by shared values) then kuluu / consume knowledge from her abundantly with pleasure wherever you wish, and enter the door (of al qariah / cluster of established thoughts) in sujjadan / lower/ humility / submissive and say: hittotun / burden is removed,' and We shall forgive you your wrong-doings and shall increase (and added to what strength you have) for al muhsinin / one whose experience is of true knowledge."

2:59    But those zhalamu / who did wrong, changed qaulan / a saying other than that We had revealed to them, so We revealed upon the wrong-doers rijzan / a punishment from as samaa' / the higher consciousness with whatever they yafsuqun / disobeyed command of Allah.

2:60    And when Musa / who is strong in rational thinking, asked for istasqaa / fresh knowledge for qaumihi / his group of established thoughts, so We said: "id'rib / study / investigate / discipline al hajara / the hard headed (not accepting new and fresh knowledge) bi asaaka / with your staff (where you are strong and knowledgeable, manageable and can regulate the affair properly.  Staff, strength you lean on it). Then fajarat / gushed forth there from isnata 'asharata / folded assembly (of thoughts), 'ainan / a perception.  Each (group of) thoughts unasin / aligned with the truth, knew its own place for water (knowledge). "Kulu / consume knowledge and ashrabu / absorb inwardly of that which Allah has provided and do not act corruptly, in al ardh / the lower consciousness, mufsidin / one who make mischief." 

2:61    And when you said, "O Musa / who is strong in rational thinking, never (we) nashbira / endure waahidin / a singular ta'amin / consumption (of knowledge).  So ud'u / invoke your Rabb / Lord for us to bring forth for us out of what (is available) the cultivation of the ardh / lower consciousness, from baqliha / its ideas, and qiissa'iha / its resurrection, and fumiha / its fertility, and 'adasiha / its prosperity and basaliha / its protection." He (Musa) said, "Would you exchange that which is better for that which is adna (attached close to you)? Lower (your) misran / divine boundary (setting limits in your reasoning not to intervene with the truth revealed by your Rabb), then surely you shall find what you have asked for!" And they were covered with humiliation and misery, and they drew on themselves the anger from Allah. That was because they used to reject the ayaat / signs of Allah and killed (dissolved) the nabiyyin / who pronounce and establish (news of the ghaib) without the truth. That was because they 'asau / disobeyed and they ya'tadun / transgressed the limits.

2:62    Indeed those who take security (in Al Kitab) and those who hadu / repent and return to the right path, and the nasara / help others on the right path, and the sobi'in / early involvement in the right path, whoever take security in Allah and the yaumil aakhiri / moment of ending (dissolving duniya including your body, mind and soul) and amila solihan / do reform (transformation to unbecome what you have became) shall have their reward with their Rabb / Lord, and on them shall be no khaufun / fear, nor shall they yahzanun / grieve. 

2:63    And when We took mithaqakum / your covenant and We raised above you the thur / higher levels of attainment (signifying the levels of the covenant): "Hold with strength to that which We have given you, and izkuru / embody divine fatherly masculine thoughts and emotions) what is in it so that you may be tattaqun / mindful. 

2:64    Then you turned away from after that. So had it not been for the fadhlu / Allah's given advantage upon you and His Rahmatuhu (Allah's system of education), surely you would have been among the khosirun / losers.

 
 
2:65     And indeed you knew about those who i'tadau / transgressed from among you in the sabti / equilibrium of a peaceful active mind, and We said to them, "Be qiradatan / apes (that is, monkey mind for the transgression of a peaceful active mind), despised".    
 

2:66    So We made it nakaalan / a punishment to take heed towards what is between his hands and whoever kholfa / represent them and a sermon / lesson for muttaqeen / those who are mindful (of Allah).

 
 
2:67     And when Musa / one who is strong in rational thinking, said to his qaum / group of established thoughts, "Surely, Allah commands you to execute a baqara / self-inquiry." They (group of thoughts) said, "Are you huzuwa / disregarding / contempting us?" He (Musa) said, "I seek refuge in Allah that I be from al jahilin / the ignorant (who do not possess knowledge because you ignore seeking it)”. 
 
 
 
2:68     They said, "Invoke on your Rabb / Lord to make clear to us what it is.  (Musa) Said, "(Allah) Says, surely she is baqaratun /  a self-inquiry that is not faridun / imposed and not bikrun / hasten for early result, sought between that, do therefore what you are ordered. 
 

2:69     They said, "ud'u / invoke for us, your Rabb / Lord for us that He may clarify what luna / colour it is.  He (Musa) said, "Surely He (Allah) says a baqaratun / self-inquiry is a safraau / empty, faqi'un / pure bright, its colour tasurru / concealed to the observer.    

 
 
2:70     They said, "ud'u / invoke for us on, your Rabb / Lord to make it clear to us what it is, for surely the baqara / self-inquiry is  tashabaha / resembling to us, and indeed if Allah will we shall surely be muhtadun / ones who are guided. 
 

2:71      He (Musa) said, "He (Allah) says, indeed it is baqaratun / a self-inquiry that is laa dhalulun / not easy tusiru / to cultivate al ardh / the lower consciousness and not easily watered / moistened / made porous al hars / the investigation musallamatun / the one who fully submit shiyata / fully accomplished.  They said, "now you have come with al haq / the truth.  So they dhabahu / perform / execute it and they could hardly kadu / come near of yaf'alun / doing it.

2:72    And when you qatal / kill nafsan / a soul, then you averted (pushed away) concerning it.  And Allah is the muhrijun / one who brought forth what you were taktumun / concealing.

2:73     So We said, "Dhoribu / strike with part of it (inquiry) like that attributable to you, Allah yuhyi / revives / brings mauta / the lifeless (without awareness of truth) to life and shows you His ayaati / signs that you may ta'qilun / comprehend (use your pure logical mind).

2:74    Then qulubukum / your hearts (pull of affection and emotion) were qasat / rough (signify heartless, cold and indifferent) from after that fahiya / so became hijarati / hard headed mind (not accepting new and fresh knowledge) or even worse in roughness.  And indeed, from among the hijarati / hard headed mind (not accepting new and fresh knowledge) some yatafajjaru / slit open a passage for the knowledge from it, the river of knowledge, and indeed from it yasshaqqaqu / gush out from it maa / water (knowledge that give life to the soul), and indeed from it some yahbithu / fall down for fear of Allah.  And Allah is not unaware of what you do.

2:75    Afathadma'una / do you then hope that they would yukminu / feel secured towards you, while a party from among them indeed yasma'una / used to hear the kalaama / word of Allah, then yuharrifuna / altered it from after what they 'aqaluhu / had understood it (using their pure logical mind), and they yakmaluna / know (this).

2.76    And when they laqu / measure (to assess) those who aamanu / take security (in Allah), they say, "aamanna / we take security (in Allah)", and when khola / emptiness (of imaan), meet one another, they say, "Atu haddisu / do they perceive the representation with what Allah has fataha / decoded the meaning (of the ayaati) upon you, that they may dispute with you about it, in the nearnest of your Rabb / Lord?"  Will you then not ta'qilun / comprehend (use your pure logical mind) ?

2:77    Do they not know that Allah knows what they yusirru / know secretly by revelation and yuklinun / what they perceive by their own logical thinking? 

2:78    And from them there are ummiyyun / who give motherly care, who do not know al kitab / the inherent script except their amaniyya / longing / wishes and they do nothing except yazunnuna / having opinion (formulated by their own rational mind).

2:79    Then woe to those who wrote al kitab / the inherent script with their hands (using their own independent logic), then they say this is from the nearness of Allah to purchase with it for a little price.  Then woe to them from what their hands wrote and woe to them from what they earn.

2:80    And they say an-nar / the burning sensation of internal conflicts (that burn an-nas) shall not touch us except (for) counted moments.  So have you taken a covenant in the nearness of Allah who never yuhlifa / replace any of His promises or you just ascribe to Allah what you do not know ?

2:81    Rather, whosoever earns evil and surrounded with it, they (their thoughts born of their conditioned rational mind) are companions of the an-nar / burning sensation of internal conflicts (that burn an-nas); they will dwell therein forever.

2:82    And those who aamanu / take security (in Al Kitab) and do solehah / reform, they (thoughts of their own pure rational mind) are companions of jannah (hidden garden of knowledge), they will dwell therein forever. 

2:83    And when We took a covenant of bani Israel / those who construct spiritual journey to seek guidance, that you do not ta'buduna / serve except Allah and ihsanan / (be) good with waalidain / two nourishers (rijal in rational support and nisa in emotional support) and endowed (provide the best) with the qurba / close related (thoughts in related knowledge and wisdom) and the yatama / who has no support for guidance and the masakin / who are needy of guidance and say husnan / good deeds to an-nas  / the agitated mind and establish (rooted and ingrained) connections (with hidden messages delivered by rasul / inner voice for download) and pursue zakah / mental growth and development then except few from you, you turn away avoiding it.

2:84    And when We took your covenant with you:  Do not tasfikuna dimaa'akum / aggravate your brutal mindset, and turn out your anfus / souls from diyarikum / your state of encircling thought.  Then, you aqrar / stabilise (remain) and (to this) you bear witness (to your covenant). 

2:85     Then, it is you who kill your anfus / conditioned souls and expel a fariqan / group distinguished from your diyaar / homes of encircling thoughts, (that) are apparent upon them, with sin and enmity.  And if they come to you, restrain to redeem them, while their expulsion was forbidden to you. Then do you take security in a part of Al Kitab / the inherent script and reject the rest? Then what is the recompense of those who do so among you, except disgrace in the life of this duniya (close attachments and relationships), and on the yawmal qiyamah / moment of establishing (the dissolution of duniya) they shall be consigned to the most grievous torment. And Allah is not unaware of what you do.

2:86    Those are they who have bought the life of this duniya (close attachments and relationships) at the price of the aakhirah / ending the dissociation (by dissolution of duniya - closed attachments and relationships). Their torment shall not be lightened nor shall they be helped.

2:87    And surely We gave Musa (one who is strong in rational thinking) the kitab (inherent script) and We followed up with the rusuli / inner voices (that recite the ayaati, teaches Al Kitab and Al Hikmah). And We gave Isa (one who is fortified with ruhul quddus), the abna (construct) of Maryam (ardent pursuit to discover), with bayyinaat / clarities (separating truth from falsehood) and supported him with Ruh-ul-Qudus (the holy spirit / essence of the truth). Is it that whenever there came to you rasulun / an inner voice (that deliver the hidden message) with what your anfus / souls desired not, you grew arrogant? Then fafariqan / a party (of the hidden message received) you kazzab / denied / wronged and a party (of hidden message received), you taqtulun / killed.

2:88    And they say, "Our qulubu / hearts (pulls of affection and emotion) are wrapped (i.e. do not hear or understand Allah's Word)." Yes, Allah la'ana / has cursed them with their kufri / rejection, so little is that which they yukminun / trust and take security (no inspiration, no spiritual development and no evolution).

2:89    And when there came to them, kitabun / an inherent script from the nearness of Allah confirming what is from before that yastaftihuna / will bring victory as a decoded message against those kafaru / who reject (ayaati of Allah), then when there came to them that which they had recognised, they kafaru / reject with it. So let the laknatu / curse (no inspiration, no development and no evolution) of Allah be on the kafirin / rejecters.

2:90    Bi'sama / evil (is) that by selling their anfus / souls with it (kitabun) resulting in them kafaru / reject with what Allah has revealed, grudging that Allah should reveal with His fadhli / (given) advantage, unto whom He will from His servants.  So they have drawn on themselves wrath upon wrath.  And lil kaafirin / to the rejecters  (ayaati of Allah), a disgraceful punishment.

2:91    When they are told to trust and take security with what Allah has revealed, they reply, "We trust and take security only in what Allah has revealed to us," but they yakfuru / reject with what is waraa'a / all round, and it is the truth confirming with what is with them.  Say, "Then why did you ta'tulu / kill Allah's anbiya / those who pronounce and establish (news of the ghaib) from before if you are mukminin / those who take security (from your unfettered independent logical mind) ?"

2:92    And surely Musa (one who is strong in rational thinking) came to you with bayyinaat / clarities (separating truth from falsehood), then you took hastiness after it, and you were zhalimun / unjust (putting things in wrong place like accepting the signs / representation, as the reality).

.  

2:93    And when We took your covenant and We raised above you the thur / an elevated consciousness (of a higher self that demands surrender, humility, and inner transformation), "Hold firmly to what We have given you and hear with quwwatin / full attention (Our word for guidance). They said, "We have heard and denied." And in their hearts (pull of affection and emotion) absorbed the hastiness (became devoted and love to be hasty) with distrust.  Say: "Bi'sama / evil is that ya'murukum / actions (manifested) with it, imaanukum / your faith if you are mukminin / those who take security."

2:94    Say, if it (the transformation to unbecome the become) is the darul / circle of akhirah / ending (dissolving duniya and ending the dissociated self) in the nearness of Allah is indeed kholisatan / a sincerity from other than an-nas / the soul / self, then wish for almauta / being lifeless, if you are truthful.

2:95    And never will they wish for it ever with what they have done with their hands. And Allah is all Aware of the zalimun / unjust (putting things in wrong place like accepting the signs / representation, as the reality).

2:96    And latajidannahum / surely you will perceive them (as) vehement desire of an-nas / the agitated mind over hayaatin / life and from those who ascribe partners (to Allah). Everyone of them yawaddu / wishes that he could be given a lively familiar sinatin / established opinion. But the grant of such life will not save him even a little from punishment. And Allah is All-Seer of what they do.

2:97    Say whoever is aduwwan / a transgressor to Jibril (faculty of mind which decode the hidden message), for indeed he has brought it down upon your heart with permission of  Allah, confirming to what is between his hands (that which is within his power) and hudan / a guidance and bushraa / sensible thoughts (who trust the transformation) for mukminin / those who take security (from their unfettered independent logical mind).

2:98    Whoever is aduwwan / a transgressor to Allah, His malaikah / state of inner authority (where authority of judgment is removed from the agitated mind and is placed within the consciousness field), His rusuli / inner voices (that recite the ayaati, teaches Al Kitab and Al Hikmah), Jibril (decodee of the hidden message) and Mikael (intelligence), then verily, Allah is aduwwun / a transgressor to the kaafirin / rejecters.

2:99    And indeed We have revealed to you a clear ayat and none yakfuru / reject (ayaati of Allah) in them but fasiqun / disobediences (of Allah's command).

2:100    Why is it that every time they make a covenant, a party distinguished (the covenant) from them abandon it. Rather, aktharuhum / many of them do not yukminun / take security (with what Allah has revealed).

2:101    And when came to them rasulun / an inner voice (that recite the ayaati, teaches Al Kitab and Al Hikmah) from the nearness of Allah confirming to what was with them (established by his rational thinking),  a group distinguished of them from those who had been given Al Kitab / the inherent script nabaza / threw kitaba / inherent script of Allah all round hiding the representation that zhuhuri / apparent to them as if they did not yaklamun / know (anything about it).

2:102    And they followed what the shayaatin (acts from state of despair) over mulki / inner authority (authority of the consciousness field) of sulaiman (who possessed full inner authority over his submission), and sulaiman was not kafaru / rejecter (of the ayaati / signs), but the shayaatin kafaru / rejected (ayaati /signs), they (shayaatin) taught an-nas / the agitated mind sihru / diversion (that turned away from the right course) and whatever was revealed to al malaka'in / the two authorities of the mind (that is logical and intuitive), bibabil / with speech digression, harut / loose-tongue / unrestrained in speech and marut / silver tongued but hollow, and both do not teach anyone until they (both) say, "Surely we are only a trial, therefore do not be takfuru / rejecter."  So they learn from those two what yufarriquna / will distinguish with it between al mar'i / preserving the tongue (guarding good speech) and zawjihi / his integrated pair (zakara / divine masculine attributes like focus, logic, assertiveness and unsa / divine feminine attributes like unconditional love, care, acceptance), and they do not harm anyone through it except by permission of Allah and (bound) to learn what harms them and does not benefit them. And surely, knew that whoever purchase would have no share over it in aakhirah / ending the dissociation (by dissolving the duniya and close relationships).  And evil is what they sold with it, their anfus / souls, if only they knew.

2:103    And if they take security (and trust on the truth) and extremely cautious (mindful of their own thoughts), return in the nearness of Allah would certainly have been better; if only they knew.

2:104    O those who aamanu / take security (in Al Kitab / the inherent script), say not ra'ina / we listen but say unzurna / we reflect and ponder (over truth offered).  And for those who reject / cover (the truth) is a painful punishment.

2:105    Do not be like those who kafaru / reject (ayaati of Allah) from ahlil kitab / those who are well-versed in their inherent script, nor those musrikin / who pollute / associate (the inherent script) wish that any good should be sent down upon you from your Rabb / Lord.  And Allah yahtasshu / exclusively selects with rahmati / His abstract education system who desire, and Allah is possessor of the fadhli al azheem / the great advantage (to the ahlil kitab). 

2:106    Whatever that is abrogated from ayaati / signs or cause it to be forgotten, We bring forth better than it or similar to it. Did you not know that Allah kadir / measures upon all things?

2:107    Do you not know that Allah's for Him is the kingdom of the higher consciousness and the lower consciousness, and that besides Allah you have no guardian and no helpers ?

2:108    Or do you intend to ask your rasul / inner voice (that recite the ayaati, teaches Al Kitab and Al Hikmah) as Musa (who is strong in rational thinking) was asked from before? And whoever exchanges imaan / security with the kufra / rejection has certainly strayed from the sound (true) way.

2:109    Many of the ahlil kitab / those who are familiar in their inherent script, wish they could turn you back to a kuffara / rejecter after your iman / (you took) security (in Al Kitab), out of envy from their anfus / souls, after the truth has become clear to them.  So have forgiveness and bear with them until Allah delivers it with His command.  Indeed, Allah measures over all things.  

2:110    And aqimu / established (rooted, solidified and ingrained) the salaat / connections (with hidden messages delivered by rasul / inner voice for download) and pursue az-zakaah / the mental growth / development and whatever good you sent forth is for your anfus / souls, you find it with Allah.  Indeed, Allah is Seer with what you do.

2:111    And they say, "None will enter jannah / the valley of hidden knowledge except hudan / repent and return to the right path or nasara / help others on the right path." That is their wishful thinking.  Say, "Produce your proof, if you should be truthful."

2:112    Rather! Whoever submit wajhahu / focus to care (to surrender their anfus) to Allah and he is muhsinin / one whose experience is of true knowledge, so to him he has his reward in the nearnest of his Rabb / Lord, and there is no fear for him nor shall he grieve.

2:113    And the yahudu / those who repent and return to the right path say: The nasaara / those who help others on the right path, are not upon anything and the nasaara / those who help, say: The yahudu / those who repent and return, are not upon anything (in respect of growth and fulfillment) while they recite the Kitab / the inherent script.  Even thus say those who have no knowledge, like (the same) to what they say; so Allah shall yahkumu / judge (base on Allah's law) between them on the yawmal qiyamah / moment of establishing (dissolution of soul) in what (truth) they yahtalifun / represent.

2:114    And who is (more) azlamu / unjust (misplacing the truth) than he who prevents from the masaajid (states where one is in surrender his soul) of Allah, that yuzkara / will embody the truth with masculine attributes of consciousness (like logical, focus, courages and assertiveness) in ismuhu / His raised names (for there is nothing exist before being measured and named), and sa'a / strives in khorabiha / her uncultivated state of knowledge?  They are those not proper for them that they should have entered them except in fear; they shall meet with disgrace in this duniya (close attachments and relationships), and they shall have great punishment in the aakhirah / ending the dissociation (dissolution of anfus). 

2:115    And to Allah belongs the mashriqu / emergence of illuminated state / with guidance (from state of darkness / without guidance) and the maghribu / setting state of darkness / without guidance (from state of illumination / with guidance).  So wherever you turn, there is wajhu / focus to care (for growth and surrender) to Allah. Indeed, Allah is all-Encompassing and Knowing.

2:116    And they say, " Allah has taken waladan / a produce (that Allah has produced or created all in the higher consciousness and the lower consciousness).  "Subhaanahu / Glory be is Him (for the swim to explore His abundant knowledge).  Rather, to Him whatever in the higher consciousness and the lower consciousness, all are qaanitun / devoutly obedient to Him (in their surrender),

2:117    Originator of the higher consciousness and the lower consciousness.  And when He decrees a matter, then He only says to it, "Be," and it is (psychologically there is no element of time).

2:118    And those who have no knowledge say: Why does not Allah speak to us or a sign come to us? Like that said those before them, the like of what they say; their hearts (pull of affection and emotion) are all alike. Indeed We have made the signs clear for a qaum / group of established thoughts (who put their trust in the transformation of their soul) who are yaqin / sure.

2:119    Indeed We have delivered to you with the truth bashiran / a pleasant rational thought (who trust the transformation) and naziran / a self warner (to put oneself on guard), and you shall not be asked about companions (intellect of logical mind and ladunni of intuitive mind) of the jahim / unenlightened (holding on to static beliefs that halt your spiritual progress).

2:120    And never the yahudu / those who repent and return to the right path,  tardho / pleased you, and the nasara / those who help others on the right path, until you follow their millat / responses (based on logic and reasoning of their conditioned mind).  Say: Surely Allah's guidance, is the (true) guidance.  And if you follow their desires after the knowledge has come to you, you shall have no waliyyin / guardian from Allah and no helper. 

2:121    Those to whom We have given Al Kitab / the inherent Script follow it as a fact / reality / duty / right to follow it.  They are the ones who feel secure / safe with it.  And whoever yakfur / reject with it - it is they who are the losers.

2:122    O bani Israel / those who construct their spiritual journey to seek guidance, uzkuru / embody divine masculine energy (that is be linear, logical, focus and assertive) of My nikmati / favour (effortless decoding of the signs) which I anaam / granted ease with elevated knowledge, on you and that I gave you advantage, over the 'aalamin / all the empirical and factual knowledge. 

2:123    And attaqu / be mindful against a moment when no nafsun / soul shall avail (another) nafsin / soul (step-in with the truth from Al Kitab) in the least neither shall any adlun / justice be accepted from it, nor shall intercession profit it, nor shall they be helped. 

2:124    And when his Rabb / Lord put Ibrahim (who is inclined towards the truth) to trial with words, then he completed them (experientially).  He said, surely I have made you the imam / leader for an-nas / the agitated mind.  He said, and from zurriyati / my off-springs of early developed thoughts?  He said, My covenant shall not reach the zhaalimin / unjust (thoughts from your logical mind, putting things in wrong place like accepting the signs / representation, as the reality).

2:125    And when We made al-bait / the mental house a place of return (from disobedience to obedience) for an-nas / the agitated mind and you take the place of salla / connection (with hidden message delivered by rasul / inner voice) from the maqami / state of established position of Ibrahim (who is inclined to Allah's system of education) and We covenanted towards Ibrahim (who is inclined to Allah's system of education) and Ismail (who listen to the truth) that they purify My mental house for the tho'ifina / seeking and the 'akifina / retreat and the rukka'i / accept, the sujud / surrender.


2:126    And when Ibrahim (who is inclined to the truth) said, "O my Rabb / Lord, make this baladan / doorway of discovery, secured and provided with sustenance to ahlahu / its affiliates from the thamara / the increased intellect (to) whosoever aamana / trust and take security from them with Allah and yawmil aakhiri / the moment of ending (moment of dissolving duniya).  He said and whosoever kafara / reject (signs of Allah) then I will give him little enjoyment then I will afflict him towards a punishment with an-nar / burning sensation of internal conflicts (that burn an-nas).  And evil (is) the destination. 
 

2:127    And when Ibrahim (who is inclined to the truth) and Ismail (who listen to the truth) were raising (to exalt beyond limitation) the qawaida / foundation / principles from the baiti /  mental house,  "our Rabb / Lord accept from us, surely You are hearing, knowing".

2:128    O our Rabb / Lord, make both (Ibrahim and Ismail) of us muslimaini / submitters for You and for zurriyatina / our scattered thoughts, muslimah / those who submit to You.  And from ummatan / group of foundational thoughts of submitters to You show us manasikana / our state of devotion and turn in repentance, on us.  Surely you are the returning, the rahim / merciful (for giving the hidden knowledge to our mental development). 

2:129    Our Rabb / Lord, and raise (to life) in them a rasul (an inner voice) who will recite upon them (so that they follow closely) Your ayaati / signs and will teach them Al Kitab / the inherent script, and the hikmah / wisdom (actions based on understanding of the truth) and yuzakkihim / make them grow (mentally).  Indeed, You are the Mighty, the Wise (provider of understanding of the truth).

2:130    And who yarghabu / disinclined from millatil ibraheem / rational and responsive mindset (reasoned and deliberate based on pure rational mind, rather than impulsive and reactive instinctively) of those inclined to the truth, except the one whose soul is foolish.  And without doubt We have chosen him in the duniya (close attachments and relationships) and surely in the aakhirah / ending the dissociation (dissolution of duniya and its relationship), he will be from those who are the solihin / reformers.

2:131    When his Rabb / Lord said to him aslim / surrender (your anfus, souls), he said aslamtu / I surrender for the Rabb / Lord of the aalamin / worlds of factual knowledge.

2:132    And wasso / entrusted with it Ibrahim (who is inclined to the truth) banihi / thoughts (responses) he gave birth to, and Yaqub (who recognizes the consequences of millat, choices of response), "O baniyya / my produced thoughts, surely Allah has chosen for you ad-deen / the conscious obedience (Allah's system, judgment and law) then do not tamutunna / annihilate (your an-nas) except you are muslimun / those who surrender (surrender your anfus, souls).

2:133    Were you witnesses when almauta / the lifeless (without awareness of truth for the soul) hadhara / came to Yaqub / who recognizes the consequences of millat (choices of response), when he said to banihi / his constructed (conceived) thoughts, what will you serve from after me?  They said, "we will serve your ilaaha / reality and the ilaaha / reality of your abaa / fatherly support of pure rational thoughts, Ibrahim / who is naturally inclined to the truth and Ismail / who listen to the truth and Ishaq / who is alienated from falsehood - wahidan / a single reality and we are muslimun / those who surrender (our anfus, souls), to Him. 

2:134    This (the saying "we will serve your ilaah") was ummatun / a group of thoughts which kholat / has been emptied (of its impurities).  It will have (the consequence of) what it earned, and you will have what you have earned.  And you will not be asked about what they used to do (of the impurities from before).

2:135    And they say be hudan / repent and return to the right path or nasara / help others on the right path, you would be guided.  Say rather, the millata Ibrahim / rational and responsive mindset (reasoned and deliberate rather than impulsive and reactive) of those inclined to the truth, hanifan / a natural inclination (towards the truth), and he was not from the musyrikin / those who associate partners (with Allah).

2:136    They said aamanna / we trust (and take security) with Allah and what is revealed towards us and what is revealed towards Ibrahim (who is inclined to the truth) and Ismail (who listen to the truth) and Ishaq (who is alienated from falsehood) and Yaqub who recognizes the consequences of millat (choices of response) and the asbati / those of like minded and having same interest and what was given to Musa (who is matured and familiar with the truth) and Isa (who is fortified with ruh ul qudus, dignified and even) and what was given to the prophets (who pronounce and establish the truth) from their Rabb / Lord.  We do not nufarriqu / distinguish (that they are all inner voice that deliver the revelation from your Rabb) between anyone from them and we are muslimun / those who surrender (our infus, souls) for Him.

2:137    So if they trust (and take security) with the like what you trust (and take security) with it so without doubt they are guided.  And if they turn back surely they will be in shiqaq / disunity.  So Allah is sufficient for them and He is Hearing, Knowing.  

 

2:138    The sabghata Allah's / divine transformation (from fragmented to unity) and who can be more good than Allah to transform and we are servants for Him.

2:139    Say, do you atuhaajjunana / advocate out with us (supporting, defending, or arguing in favor of your understanding) concerning Allah that He is our Rabb /Lord and your Rabb / Lord and our deeds are for us and your deeds are for you and we are sincere for Him.

2:140    Or they say, surely Ibrahim (who is inclined to the truth) and Ismail (who listen to the truth) and Ishaq (who is alienated from falsehood) and Yaqub who recognizes the consequences of millat (choices of response) and the asbatha / those of like-minded having same interests, were hudan / those who repented and returned to the right path or nasara / those who help others on the right path.  Say, do you know better than Allah ?  And who is more azlamu / unjust than the one who concealed the evidence he has from Allah ?  And Allah is not unaware about what you do.

2:141     This (the saying "we will serve your ilaah") was ummatun / a group of thoughts which was kholat / emptied (of the impurities).  It will have (the consequence of) what it earned, and you will have what you have earned.  And you will not be asked about what they used to do (of the impurities from before).

2:142    The fools from an nas / the agitated mind will say what has reverted them from their qiblah / direction of faith they were over it ?  Say for Allah is the mashriqu / distinguished illuminated state (from darkness) and the maghribu / state of darkness (from illumination).  He guides who wills to a straight path.

2:143    Likewise We made you ummatan / group of thoughts washotan / a mediated direction (when there is a conflict between thoughts from own rational thinking and revelation) that you be witness over an-nas / the agitated mind and the rasulu / inner voice be a witness over you.  And We did not make the qiblah / your direction of faith that you were over it except that We know those who followed the rasula / inner voice (that deliver ayaati, Al Kitab and Hikmah from your Rabb) from those who turn over their heels (turned away).  And it is not definitely greatness except over those whom Allah guides.  And Allah will not make your faith so that it is wasted.  Surely Allah is kind, merciful with an-nas / agitated mind.

2.144    Without doubt We have seen the taqalluba / turnings of wajhika / focus to care (for gowth) in the as-samaa' / higher consciousness so definitely We will revert you to a qiblah / your direction of faith so that you will be pleased with it so revert wajhaka / your focus to care (for growth) to shatra / part (of designated self restrictions and prohibitions) of the masjidil haraam / forbidden (unhealthy mind) state of submission (like destitute mind, cruel mind, magnifying thoughts, thoughts hinder rational thinking, etc) and from wherever you are so revert wujuhakum / your focus to care (for growth) to the shatra / part (designated self restrictions and prohibitions).  And surely those who are given Al Kitab / the inherent script definitely know that it is the truth from their Rabb / Lord and Allah is not unaware of what you do. 

2:145    And if you brought to those who are given Al Kitab / the inherent script with all aayatin / signs they will not follow your qiblah / direction of faith.  And you are not with the follower of the qiblah / direction of faith and some of them are not with the follower of the qiblah / direction of faith of some.  And if you were to follow their desires after the knowledge has come to you surely then you would be from the zhaalimin / unjust (thoughts from your logical mind, putting things in wrong place like accepting the signs / representation, as the reality). 

2:146     Those to whom we have given al kitab / the inherent script recognize Him (the Ilaah / reality) no more than they recognize their abna / construct (mental procreation).  And surely a group distinguised from them, who keep the truth hidden, know it in itself.

2:147    The truth is from your Rabb / Lord, so do not be one of those who doubt.  

2:148    And for all wajhah / focus (towards care to evolve and develop) he turns to it, so seek ahead betterment wheresoever you are.  Allah will bring you all together (hidden knowledge you have received from salaah).  Surely Allah measures over all things.

2.149    And from wherever you embark, then turn wajhaka / your focus to care (for growth) toward shatra / designated part of al-masjid al-haram / the forbidden (unhealthy mind) state of submission (like destitute mind, cruel mind, magnifying thoughts, thoughts hinder rational thinking, etc), and indeed, it is the truth from your Rabb / Lord.  And Allah is not unaware of what you do. 

2:150    And from wherever you embark, so turn wajhaka / your focus to care (for growth) toward shatra / designated part of al-masjidil al-haram / forbidden (unhealthy mind) state of submission (like destitute mind, cruel mind, magnifying thoughts, thoughts hinder rational thinking, etc).  And not (from other state) wherever you are so turn wujuhakum / your focus to care (for growth) towards shatra / designated part, so that there would be no dispute over you from the agitated mind except those who are oppressors from them.  So fear them not but fear Me and that I may complete My favours (of the covenant) on you and that you may be guided. 

2:151    Just as arsalna / We have sent in you rasulan / an inner voice (that deliver the message from your Rabb) from among you, yatlu /  who recite upon you (so that you follow closely) Our ayaat / signs and yuzakkihum / make you grow (mentally) and will teach you Al kitab / the inherent script and wisdom (actions based on truth) and will teach you that which you did not know.  

2:152    Then uzkuru / embody masculine faculty of consciousness (that is be linear, logical, focus and assertive), I will azkurkum / cause you to embody masculine faculty of consciousness (that is be linear, logical, focus and assertive), and be grateful to Me, and do not takfurun / reject Me (My ayaati / signs).

   
2:153    O you who amanu / take security (in Al Kitab), seek help through patience and salaah / connections (with hidden messages delivered by rasul / inner voice for download).  Indeed, Allah is with the sobirin / patient. 
 

2:154    And do not say to whoever yuqtalu / killed in the way of Allah, amwatun / lifeless (without awareness of truth for the soul). Rather they are alive (in true self), but you do not tash'urun / notice (in terms of perception and recognition of truth).

2:155    And definitely We will test / try you with something of the fear, hunger and loss from the wealth (of knowledge) and the soul and the thamara / increased intellect; and basshiri / sensible thoughts (who trust the transformation) to those who have patience / persevere,

2:156    When musibatun / calamity reaches them they say surely we are for Allah and surely towards Him we will return.

    

2:157    Those, upon them are salawaat / connections (with hidden messages delivered by rasul / inner voice for download) from their Rabb / Lord and a rahmah (an abstract system of education), and those are the ones who are guided.

2:158    Surely ashafa / increase in patience (when faced with trials) and almarwah / striking of knowledge that heightens awareness (through blessings) are from Allah's sha'airi / divine signature (representing Allah's unique traits in His guidance).  So whoever hajja / reason out (repair and rebuild) the bayta / mental house or awi' iqtamara / flourishing state then it is not junaaha / inclined to wrong-doings over him that yathowaffa / he goes round (circumumbulate) with both of them. And whosoever tatawwa'a / able to khairan / do good then surely Allah is appreciative, knowing.

2:159    Surely those who conceal what We have revealed from the bayyinaat / clarities (separating truth from falsehood) and the guidance from after what We have clarified for the an-nas / the agitated mind in the al kitab / inherent script, they are the ones whom Allah cursed and they are cursed by those who curse. 

2:160    Except those who tabu / repent and ashlahu / reform and clarify.  So they are those whom I accept repentance and I am Oft-returning (Allah continually accepts those who turn to Him for help), the merciful.

 
 
2:161    Surely those who kafaru / reject (ayaati / signs) and maatu / annihilate (an-nas) while they are rejecters, they are the ones on whom is the curse (no inspiration. no development and no evolution) of Allah and the mala'ikah / state of inner authority (will not be able to place authority within the consciousness field) and an-nas / the agitated mind, altogether. 
 

2:162    They will abide therein (under the curse), their punishment will neither be lightened, nor will they be reprieved.

 
 
2.163    And ilaahukum / your reality is wahidun / an absolute singular irreducible reality of being, La ilaha illa Huwa / no reality of being except Him,  the Rahman / Merciful with His boundless education of factual knowledge, the Raheem / merciful for the approval of the knowledge (given under the guidance of Ar Rahmaan).   
 

2:164    Indeed in evolution of the higher consciousness and the lower consciousness and ihtilaafi / representations of the laili / darkness (without guidance) and the nahar / brightness (with guidance), and the fulki / germination of the truth that tajri / flow in the bahri / ocean of knowledge with which benefit an-nas / the agitated mind, and the maa / knowledge that Allah reveals from the higher consciousness, then gives life with it (in) the lower consciousness after mautiha / its annihilation (of an-nas) and spreads in it all dabbatin / stimulating fresh thoughts, and the directing of the riyaahi / spirits (essence of the truth) and the traces made subservient between the higher consciousness and the lower consciousness, there are signs for qaumin / a group of established thoughts who ya'qilun / will comprehend (using pure rational mind). 

2:165    And from an-nas / the agitated mind (there are those) who take others from beside Allah andadan / equal.  They love them as they love Allah, and those who feel secure and safe are over flowing in their love for Allah, if only the zhalamu / wrongdoers could see, behold, they would see the punishment: that to Allah belong all Power, and Allah will strongly enforce the Punishment. 

2:166    When those (who take others as equal to Allah) who were followed renounce those who followed, and they see the punishment with the asbab / reason (for keeping the followers) are cut off.

2:167    And those who followed shall say: If there been for us a return, then we would renounce (from) them as they have renounced (from) us. Thus will Allah show them their deeds to be intense regret to them, and they shall not come forth from an-nar / the burning sensation of internal conflicts (that burn an-nas).

2:168    O an-nas / agitated mind! Kulu / consume knowledge that which is halalan / lawful and thoyiban / good in the lower consciousness, and follow not the footsteps of shaytan / acts arises from the state of despair. Verily, he is to you an open aduwwun / transgressor.

2:169    (The one who follow the footsteps of shaytan) Only commands you with evil and indecency, and that you saya about Allah what you do not know.

2:170    When it is said to them, "Follow what Allah has revealed. "They say, "Rather! We shall follow the ways of our abaa / fatherly supports (independent thought processes)"  What!  Even though their abaa / fatherly supports were not guided (by their Rabb / Lord)? 

2:171    And the parable of those who kafaru / reject (ayaati of Allah) is as the parable of one who calls out to that which hears no more than a call and a cry; deaf, dumb, blind, (they will) never ya'qilun / comprehend.

2:172    O you who take security (with the truth)! Kuluu / consume knowledge of the thoiyibat / good things that We have provided you with, and give thanks to Allah if you serve Him alone.

2:173    Surely what is forbidden on you is maitata / lifeless (destitute) mind and waddama / cruel mind and lahmal khinzir / self magnifying mind and what has been dedicated to other than Allah with it; so whoever is ut'turra / harmed without baaghin / seeking for (it) and not transgressing then no sin on him; surely Allah is Ghafur / Forgiving, Rahim / merciful in showering education (to those who seek it through Ar Rahman).

2:174    Surely those who yaktumuna / conceal what Allah has revealed from the kitab / inherent script and take for it a small price, they kuluu / consume knowledge nothing in their bathin / inner self  except an-nar / the burning sensation of internal conflicts (that burn an-nas),  and Allah will not speak to them on the yawmal qiyamah / moment of the establishment (unveiling of the reality), nor will He purify them, and they shall have a painful punishment.

2:175    They are those who have purchased guidance for going astray and forgiveness for punishment. So what is their asbara / endurance on an-nar / the burning sensation of internal conflicts (that burn an-nas) ?

2:176    That is because Allah has revealed al kitab / the inherent script with the truth; and surely those who ihtalifu / differ (matter of) Al Kitab / the inherent script are in a great opposition.

2:177    It is not birra / truthfulness that you turn wujuhakum / your focus (for growth) qibala / in the direction of the mashrik / illuminated state (from darkness) and the maghrib / darkness state (from illuminated), but the birra / truthfulness (to your covenant) is that one should aamana / take security with Allah and the yawmil aakhiri / moment of ending (your dissociative self) and the mala'ikah / state of inner authority (ability to remove authority from your agitated mind to place within the consciousness field) and the kitab / inherent script and the nabiyyin / those who pronounce and establish (news of the ghaib), and give wealth (of knowledge) over his love (for it) to the qurbaa / who approach to learn and the yataamaa / who has no support for guidance and the masaakin / who are needy of guidance and the sabili / who pursue the path and the saa'ilin / who ask for the guidance and in the raqib / who are on the look out for guidance, and establish salaat / connections (with your Sustainer) and pursue zakaat / mental growth and development; and those who fulfill their covenant when they make it, and those who are patient in suffering and hardship and in time of conflicts.  These are they who are sadaqu / true in their way and these are muttaqeen / one who are mindful (of Allah).

2:178    O you who aamanu / take security (with Al Kitab), the qisasu / evolution through transformation (cut-off the agitated thoughts and change for the better) in the qatla / annihilation (of anfus) is written over you.  The huuru / free (no attachment) is with the hurri / free, the 'abdu / slave (serving willingly and likingly) is with the 'abdi / slave, and the unsa / divine motherly feminine attributes (unconditional love and unconditional acceptance) with the unsa / divine feminine attributes.  So whoever (the rational mind) is 'ufiya / relinquished to it anything (of its annihilation) from his brotherhood support (those who have shared values, goals and experiences) then follow up with makruf / acknowledgment of facts and and compensate over him with goodness.  That is takhfifun / imperceptible (to your rational mind) and rahmatun / a mercy from your Rabb / Lord.  After this whoever 'itada / exceeds the limits (transgresses) then for him is a painful punishment.

2:179    And there is al qisas / evolution through tranformation (leading to the truth) alive (of the true self).  O ulil albab / those who are committed to the evolution, that you may tattaqun / be mindful.

2:180    Prescribed over you is when almautu / the dissolution (of the conditioned self) is hadhara / present to any of you (anfus), if he left a good washiyyah / will for the waalidain / two sustainers (rijal in rational support and nisa in emotional support) and aqrabin / close related thoughts bil-makruf / with full knowledge and wisdom, a haq / right upon the muttaqin / one who is mindful.

2:181    Then whoever alters it after he has heard it, the sin of it then is only upon those who alter it; surely Allah is Hearing, Knowing.

2:182    Then whoever fears from janafan / an error of muusin / one who execute the will or an act of sin (on the part of the executor) then ashlaha / correct between them so that there is no sin upon him.   Surely Allah is ghafur / Forgiving, rahim / merciful in showering education (to those who seek it through Ar Rahman) .

2:183    O you who take security (in Al Kitab), siiyam / self restraint (in absolute sense from being unjust in Allah's command) is written over you like what was written over those before you that you may be mindful of your thoughts. 

2:184    Moments (of his abstinence from siyam) are counted.  Whosoever from you is maridhan / disordered (like sick, very tired, in pain) or on safarin / state of absence (zero / blank mind) then take into account from other moments.  And over those who are enclosed / encircled, then redemption is to feed the needy (those who are in need of guidance from among your thoughts).   So whosoever voluntarily does betterment then it is better for him and that you tasumu / restraint it is better for you if you know.

2:185    Ramadhan / intense phase (of spiritual heat) is shahru / notable / apparent in which al quran / the expression of truth (in the comprehension of Allah's message) revealed as a guide for an-nas / agitated mind and the bayyinaat / clear evidence (factual knowledge) from the guidance and the furqan / the conscience (ability to distinguish the inner voice who deliver the divine message and a whisper of own thoughts) so whosoever witness that apparent notion from among you, then he should sumhu / self-restrain (from being unjust in executing Allah's message).  Those who are maridhan / disordered (like sick, very tired, in pain) or safarin / state of absence (zero / blank mind) then iddah / take into account from the other moments.  Allah intends easiness for you and He does not intend any difficulty for you that you may complete the iddah / the entire account and that you greaten Allah over what He guided you and that you may be thankful.

2:186    And when My servants ask you concerning Me - indeed I am very near.  I respond to da'wah / invocation of the supplicant when he da'i / invoke upon Me.  So let them respond to Me and feel safe / secure in Me that they may be always rightly guided.  

2:187    It is lawful for you to be in lailatal siyyam / restraint (restraining from exploring the realm of the unseen) in a state of darkness (without guidance) as the rafathu / intimate relationship to your nisa / passionate urges (emotional drive that fuel motivation, creativity, empathy and determination), they (your nisa) are a covering for you and you are a covering for them.  Allah knows that you betrayed your souls so He returns over you and pardoned you about it.  So now accompany them and seek what Allah has written for you and kulu / consume knowledge and sharabu / absorb until the white thread from the dawn clarifies for you from the black thread then completes the siyyam / self restraint to the laili / darkness and you do not accompany them when you are devoted in the masajid / state of surrender.  These are the hududu / boundaries / limits of Allah so you do not go near them.  Likewise Allah clarifies His ayats / signs for an-nas / the agitated mind so that they may be mindful of their thoughts.

2:188    And do not kulu / consume your amwaal / wealth of knowledge between yourselves with the baatil / falsehood (unsubstantiated and unreal), and present with it to the hukkami / inner authorities (who place the judgment within the consciousness field), that you consume a part distinguished from amwaal / wealth (knowledge) of an-nas / agitated mind  with sin while you know.

2:189    And they question you about the ahillah / dedications (to other than Allah).  Say they are mawaakitu / designated for an-nas / agitated mind and hajjun / reasoning out.  And it is not the birru / truth to enter mental houses from the back (that means not going through the struggle), but the birra / truhfulness (to your covenant) is  one who are mindful and conscious of Allah. And enter mental houses (of your psyche) from their doors (not through ego and self interest). And be conscious of Allah that you may succeed (breaking the frontiers of consciousness).

2:190    And qaatilu / fight (dissolve the anfus) in the way of Allah those who qaatilu / fight you, and do not transgress (the limit). Indeed, Allah does not love the transgressors.

2:191    And 'uktulu / kill them (dissolve their anfus) wherever you find them, and drive them out (using the right basis) from wherever they drove you out (from the basis of their argument), and the fitnatu / trial is more severed than killing, and do not fight them at the masjidil haraam / forbidden (unhealthy) state of submission, until they fight with you in it, but if they do fight you, then kill them (that is dissolve their anfus); such is the recompense of the rejecters.

2:192    Then if they intahau / have had enough, then (leave them) surely Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.

2:193    And fight (by dissolving your souls) with them until there is no fitnatun / heated discussion, and the deen / conscious obedience (Allah's system, judgment and law) should be only for Allah, but if they intahau / have had enough, then there should be no udwaana / anxiety except against the zhaalimin / unjust (thoughts from your logical mind, putting truth in wrong place).

2:194     The shahrul haram / notable prohibited are with the shahril haram / notable prohibited acts and the prohibitions (you violated), are qisasun / for evolution through transformation (where you cut-off the impurities for purity).  So whoever has transgressed upon you, then transgress him in the same way that he has transgressed you. And ittaku / be mindful of Allah and know that Allah is with muttaqeen / those who are mindful of Him.

2:195    And anfiqu / self-experience (the reform by putting the knowledge into practice) in the way of Allah and do not throw with your hands into destruction (do not act in ways that knowingly lead to your own downfall).  And do good; indeed, Allah loves muhsinin / one whose experience is of true knowledge.

 
 
2:196    And complete hajj / reasoning out (rebuilding your thought process) and umrah / revive (bring to life the deen of Allah in silence of the logical mind so as to listen to your Rabb) for Allah, if you are being restricted so seek what is easy from al hadya / the guidance offered and you do not shave your head (a metaphor for outstripping the reasons and you loose your strength in reasoning out) until your hadya / guidance offered reached mahillah / place where infusion end (that is the point where disentanglement is reached).   So whosoever is from among you maridhan / disordered (like sick, very tired, in pain) or with him there is a hurt from his head (over stretching thought process) then you fidya / liberate / redeem from siyyam / self-restrain (from the act of reviving) or sadaqah / being genuine / being truthful (in conveying the truth) or nusukin / reclusion / solitude (that is devote wholly his time, energy, etc to reach point of disentanglement).  Then when you are secured (from the restriction) so whoever tamatta'a / took advantage with umrah / act of reviving (the deen of Allah) towards hajj / reasoning out (repairing your thought process) so seek what is easy from the hadya / guidance offered then whosoever do not find (not secured) then siyyam /  self restraint (from revival) for three moments in the hajj / reasoning out and seven when you return (back to your secured self).  That is complete ten.  That is to whom his ahlu / those familiar is not present at the masjidil haraam / forbidden (unhealthy mind) state of submission.  Be mindful of Allah and know that surely Allah is strong / severe in pursuit.


2:197    The hajj / reasoning out (rebuilding your thought process) are ashhurun ma'lumaat / known notable processes, so whoever has made faradho / obligatory therein the Hajj / reasoning out (rebuilding your thought process), then there is no rafatha / wrongful approach and lafusuqa / no disobedience (of Allah's command) and no jidala / contention in the Hajj / reasoning out (rebuilding your thought process).  And whatever from good you do - Allah knows it. And take provisions, then indeed, the best provision is taqwa / be mindful / conscious.  And taqwa / be mindful / be conscious of Me, O ulul albab / those who are committed to the evolution.

2:198    There is no junaahun / inclination to wrong doing upon you for seeking fadlan / a given advantage from your Rabb / Lord.  Then when afadhtum / you have accumulated abundant knowledge from arafat / pure knowing (of perceptions and recognition of facts), then uzkuru / embody divine masculine attributes (be linear, logical, brave, focus, assertive) of Allah with al-mash'ar al-haram / the the prohibited signature (of a weak mind like destituteness, cruelty, magnifying state that hinder rationalization thoughts).  And uzkuruhu / embody His masculine faculty of consciousness, as He has guided you, and that, you were from before it among those astray. 

2:199    Then afiidu / depart (from your devotion in those activities) from wherever the afaadha / departure from over the an-nas / the agitated mind and ask the forgiveness of Allah; surely Allah is ghafur / forgiving, rahim / merciful in showering of knowledge (from the education system of Ar Rahmaan).

2:200    Then when qadhaitum / you completed (your detachment) manasikakum / your state of devotion (from activities of an-nas) then uzkuru / embody divine masculine attributes of Allah (that is be linear, logical, focus and assertive) like you zikrikum / embody the masculinity of your abaa / fatherly supports (independent logical mind) or a greater masculinity.  Then from an-nas / the agitated conditioned mind who says O our Rabb / Lord, give us in the duniya (close attachments and relationships) and not for him in the aakhirah / ending the dissociation (dissolution of anfus) from halaaqin / reform.

2:201    And from among them is he who says, "Our Rabb / Lord, give us in this duniya (close attachments and relationships) good and in the aakhirah / ending the duniya (dissolution of anfus) good and protect us from the punishment of an-nar / the burning sensation of internal conflicts (that burn an-nas like disagreements and betrayals within oneself)."

2:202    Those will have a share of what they have earned, and Allah is swift in account.  

2:203    And uzkuru / embody divine masculine attributes of Allah (like courageous, logical, focus and assertive), in ayyam ma'dudah / counted moments (in crucial moments in seeking the truth). Then whoever ta'ajjala / do the task hastily in two moments (when depart from misunderstanding and when engage in non-factual knowledge) - there is no sin (wrong-doing) upon him; and whoever ta'akhhar / remain engaging (stay to the end), there is no sin (wrong-doing) upon him, for him who taqwa / mindful of Allah.  And taqwa / be mindful of Allah and know that unto Him you will be gathered (return to the truth). 

2:204    And among an-nas / the agitated conditioned mind is whose sayings will amaze you in the life of this duniya / close attachments and relationships, and yushhidu / Allah will witness (his sayings) over what is in qalbihi / his heart, and he is 'aladdu / the contentious of al khosimi / the (ones who) dispute.

2:205   And when he turns away (from his mindfulness of Allah into the amazement of duniya), he occupies himself in al ardh / the lower consciousness that he will do corruption in it and destroy the cultivation (what you brought forth), and Allah does not love al fasad / the corruption (of your lower consciousness). 

2:206    And when it is said to him, taqwa / be mindful of Allah; he took the izzatu / honour (of the saying) with the ismi / sin, then sufficient for him jahannam / stagnation (holding on to static beliefs that halt spiritual progress); and (that is) certainly an evil mihadu / developmental place (for ascension). 

2:207    And among an-nas / the agitated mind, is (the one) who sell his nafs / soul to seek the pleasure of Allah (for their fear of punishment); and Allah is kind with the servants. 

2:208    O you who aamanu / take security (in Al Kitab),  enter in Al Islam (to attain peace) entirely and do not follow the footsteps of shaytan / whispers from acts of despair.  Indeed, he for you, is a clear aduwwun / enemy.

2:209    Then if you slip (that you follow the footsteps of shaytan) from after the bayyinaat / clear evidences (discernment of truth from falsehood) of what came to you, then know that Allah is all Mighty and Hakim / Wise (provider of understanding based on Allah's law with facts and empirical evidence).

 

2:210    Do they then wait (for anything after they had slip the clear proofs) that Allah should come to them in dhulalin / giving shades (of the truth) from the ghamami / distress (cloudy mind) and mala'ikah / state of inner authority (authority within the consciousness field) and is decreed the matter (to be settled)?  And to Allah return the matters.

2:211    Ask bani israel / those who construct their spiritual journey to seek guidance, how many clear ayats / signs We gave them.  And whoever changes Allah's nikmat / favour (pure sensible mind) from after it had come to him, then surely, Allah is severe in punishment. 

2:212    Adornment for those who kafaru / reject (ayaati of Allah) is the hayaatu / life of ad duniya / close attachments and relationships, and they ridicule those who aamanu / take security (in Al Kitab).  And those who taqwa / mindful of Allah are above them on the yawmal qiyamah / moment of establishing (transformation of soul). And Allah gives yurzuku / nourishment (of the truth) to who will (he who want the provision) without account.

2:213    An-nas / the agitated conditioned mind is one single ummah / group of thoughts (that have shared goals, direction and principles) then Allah ba'atha / raised (alive) nabiyyeen / who pronounce and establish (news of the ghaib) mubashhirin / one who has sensible thoughts (who trust the transformation) and warnings and with them he revealed Al Kitab / the inherent script in truth liyahkuma / to govern (based on Allah's system, law and judgment) between an-nas / the agitated mind in mahtalifu / what they represented in it.  And they did not ihtalafa / represent in it except those who were given it from after what bayyinaat / clear evidences             (separating truth from falsehood) came to them to wrong between each other.  Then Allah guides from the truth with His permission to those who trust and take security for what they ihtalafu / represent in it.  And Allah guides who will (he who wants the guidance) towards the straight path.

2:214    Or do you think that you will enter al jannah / the hidden garden of knowledge while such (framework for receiving divine guidance) has not come to you like those who has    passed from before you? They were touched by evil and harm and were shaken until the rasul / inner voice (that deliver ayaati, Al Kitab and Hikmah from your Rabb) and those who trust and take security with him said,"When is the help of Allah?" Unquestionably, the help of Allah is near.

2:215    They ask you, (to) what they should spend (put into practice the hidden knowledge they received).  Say, "Whatever good you anfaq / spend is for waalidain / two sustainers (rijal in rational support and nisa in emotional support) and al akrabin / the close related and yatama / no support for guidance and masakin / needy of knowledge and ibni sabil / pursuing the path.  And whatever you do of good - indeed, Allah is Knowing of it." 

2:216    Kutiba / written upon you is Al-qitalu / the killing (of the separate self by educating and reform), even though you dislike it (and unwilling to do it). And it may be that you dislike something while it is good for you, and it may be that you like something while it is bad for you. And Allah knows, and you do not know.

2:217    They ask you about the shahril haram / notable prohibitions about killing (the utmost prohibited act is killing the true self and bring alive the separate conceptual self) in it. Say: killing (the true  self) in it is greatest, and hindering from Allah's way and denying Him, and the masjidil haram / forbidden (unhealthy mind) state of submission (like destitute mind, cruel mind, magnifying thoughts, thoughts hinder rational thinking, etc) and turning its ahli / those who are familiar out of it, from it is greater in the nearness of Allah, and fitnatu / trial / test is greater than killing; and they will not cease killing you until they turn you back about your deen / conscious obedience (of Allah's system, judgment and law), if they can; and whoever of you turns back from his deen / conscious obedience (Allah's system, judgment and law), fayamut / then he becomes lifeless (without awareness of truth for the soul) while a rejecter.   These it is whose works shall go for nothing in the duniya / close attachments (of the lower consciousness) and the aakhirah / ending the dissociation (by dissolving duniya), and they are the companions (rational mind and emotional mind that are not aware of truth) of the nar / heated conflicts within oneself; therein they shall abide.

2:218    Those who aamanu / took security (in Al Kitab), and those who hajaruu / migrated (abandon the foolishness and ignorance) and jahaduu / struggled in the way of Allah, those are the ones who look forward to Rahmatallah / Allah's mercy (the abundant knowledge in Allah's abstract system of education). And Allah is ghafur / forgiving and rahim / merciful in showering education (to grant approval to those who seek it).

2:219    And they question you about al khamri / the suppression of thought flow (that hinder rational thinking from exploring to understand the signs received) and al maysir / knowledge of the signs easily obtain (without much struggle).  Say it is greatest sin in both of them and some benefits for an-nas / the agitated mind, and their sin is greater than the benefits of the two. And they ask you as to what they yunfiqun / spend (putting them into practice). Say: the 'afwa / the wiped out or made redundant (that is the revelation and / or understanding faded away or made redundant). Thus does Allah make clear to you the ayaati / signs, that you may ponder (the idea of reflecting and thinking to embody the message).

2:220    In the duniya (close attachments and relationships) and the aakhirah / ending the dissociation (by dissolution of the duniya) and they ask you about yatama (those who are not guided by their Rabb (in respect of self development). Say, "Islahun / a reform for them is best.  And if you mix (aakhirah and duniya), then they are your brothers (a brotherly relationship). And Allah knows the mufsida / corrupter from the muslihi / reformer. And if Allah had willed, He could have put you in difficulty.  Indeed, Allah is Almighty and Wise (provider of understanding based on facts and empirical evidence).

2:221    And do not tankihoo / commingle (be infected) to al mushrikaati / the polluted thoughts (associating Allah with others) until they yukminna / take security (with Allah).  And certainly amatun /  mukminaatun / those who take security (by their intuitive mind from Allah) is better than your own process of infiltrated / impure thoughts even though it might dazzle you ?  Those (thoughts) continuously invite (you) to an-nar / the burning sensation of internal conflicts (that burn an-nas) but Allah invokes you to Al Jannah / hidden garden of knowledge and the process of protection, by His notification.  And He makes clear His signs for an-nas / the agitated minds that perhaps they may introspect (with full awareness and independently support the rationalization).

2:222    And they question you about the mahidh / overflow of urges (where the flow of passionate urges are excessive, transgressed and extended).  Say, "it is 'azhan / a hurt, so detach from an-nisa / the passionate urges (emotional drive that fuel motivation, creativity, empathy) in the mahidh / overflow (of the urges) and you do not go near them until they are cleansed.  Then come to them from where Allah has ordered you.  Surely Allah loves those who return and He loves the muthohhirin / those who are purified.

2:223    Your nisa / passionate urges (emotional drive that fuel motivation, creativity, empathy and determination to pursue knowledge and morality) are a cultivation for you (whereby from the urges you can cultivate knowledge of the truth and morality).  So come to your cultivation how you will and advance for your anfus / souls and be mindful of Allah and know that you are going to meet Him and give bashhiri / sensible thoughts (who trust the transformation) to the mukminin / those who take security (from their unfettered independent logical mind).

2:224    And do not make Allah urdah / a display (of truthfulness) for aymaanukum / your right (what you think is right) that tabarru / being truthful (to your covenant) tattaqu / mindful of Allah and tuslihu / making reform among an-nas / agitated mind.  And Allah is Hearing and Knowing.

2:225    Allah does not impose blame upon you for what is unintentional in aymaanikum / your rightness, but He imposes blame upon you for what kulubuhum / your hearts have earned (that fulfill your desire).  And Allah is Forgiving and Forbearing.

2:226    For those who yu'luuna / fall short (in their reform) from their nisa / passionate urges (as a result of pull from their emotional drive), is to wait (for the coming of) asharu / notable arba'ati / thought to hold on to.  Then if they return (to being truthful), indeed, Allah is ghafur / Forgiving and raheem / Merciful (shower them with knowledge of the truth). 

2:227    And if they decide on the talaq / separation (of their nisa / urges from emotional drive) then indeed, Allah is Hearing and Knowing.

2:228    And muthallaqaatu / those who are separated (with their nisa) will wait with their anfus / souls for three readings (to achieve the right comprehension and reach the discernment), and it is not lawful for them to conceal what Allah has evolved in their arham / conception (revelation received) if they trust in Allah and al yawmil aakhiri / the moment of ending (dissolving duniya and remaining behind the dissociated self). And bu'ulatahunna / your dependency on others (for improvement) have more right by consigning in that if they want islahan / a reform.  And for them is like those over them with makruf / full knowledge.  And rijali / independent thought process (for analysis, reason and rationalization), over them is a derajat / degree.  And Allah is Exalted in Might and Hakim / Wise      (provider of factual knowledge).

2:229    The talaq / separation (of the nisa / passionate urges marratani / continue (re-emerge) in two manners. Then, either to hold on to it (the urge from nisa) with makruf / full knowledge / recognition of it or dissolve it (the urge from nisa) with ihsan / goodness / perfection (in experience). And it is not lawful for you to take anything (to withhold according to what you desire) whatever you have given them unless both fear that they will not be able to yukima / establish (within) the limits of Allah. But if you fear that they will not yukima / establish (within) the limits of Allah, then there is no junaaha / inclination to wrong doing upon either of them concerning that by which is ransom (of the fear) concerning it. These are the limits of Allah, so do not transgress it. And whoever transgresses the limits of Allah, they are those who are zhaalimun / unjust (misplacing the truth).

2:230    Then if tallaqha / he separates her (nisa), then she is not lawful to him from after that until tankihoo / afflict (the purity of) zawjan / an integrated pair (zakara / divine masculine attributes like focus, logic, assertiveness, and unsa / divine feminine attributes like unconditional love, care, acceptance) other than her (with attachment like personality, ego, sorrow, fear).  Then if tallaqaha / separate her then there is no junaaha / inclination to wrong doing upon her for returning to each other if they are zhanna / of the opinion that they can establish (within) the limits of Allah. These are the limits of Allah, which He makes clear to qaumin / a group of established thoughts (in the transformation of soul), who know.

2:231    And when you talaq / separate your nisa / passionate urges (emotional drive that fuel motivation, creativity, empathy and determination) and they have reached their term, either hold on to it with full knowledge (and recognition) or dissolve it with full knowledge (and recognition), and do not hold on to it, intending lita'tadu / to transgress, to neglect (the hudud / limit). And whoever does that has certainly wronged nafsahu / his soul. And do not take the ayaati / signs of Allah huzuwa / to fool around (not being mindful of Allah). And uzkuru / embody divine masculine attributes (that is be linear, logical, focus and assertive), nikmat of Allah (blessings received) upon you and what has been revealed to you of al kitab / the inherent script and al hikmah / understanding based on factual knowledge, by which He instructs you. And attaqu / be mindful of Allah and know that Allah is Knowing of all things.

2:232    And when you talaqtumu / separate an-nisa / the passionate urges (emotional drive that fuel motivation, creativity, empathy and determination) and they have reached their term, then do not constraint them (that will bound to) yankihna / afflict (or be in union with) azwajahunna / their integrated pair (zakara / divine masculine attributes and unsa / divine feminine attributes) when they agree among them with makruf / knowledge of the facts (and recognition). That is instructed to whoever of you trust and take security in Allah and the yawmil aakhiri / moment of ending (dissolving duniya and remainng behind the dissociated higher self). That is better for you and purer, and Allah knows and you know not.

2:233    And alwaalidaatu / the motherly support (emotional support of nisa) shall nourish awladahunna / thoughts produced (manifested) by her, hawlain / around both, complete (to) both, for whoever arada / intend that complete the nourishment. And upon al maulud / the state of breeding for him, rizkihunna / their provision and their (internal) clothing with makruf / full knowledge (and recognition). No burden to a soul except to her capacity.  Not afflicted (and harm) sustainer with her conceived judgment and not mauluudun / state of breeding for him with his produced judgment and upon the warisi / inheritor (is also) like that.  Then if they both intend fisaalan / a finalised separation through pleasure from both of them and consultation then no junaaha / inclination to wrong doing on both of them.  And if you want to consider another nourishing (of) your produced judgment then there is no blame upon you when (you make) peace whatever given to you with makruf / full knowledge (and recognition).  And take guard of Allah and know that Allah is All-Seeing of what you do.

2:234    And those who are yutawaffauna / completed (in the dissolution of all close attachments and relationships) among you and leave your integrated pair (zakara / divine masculine attributes like focus, logic, assertiveness and unsa / divine feminine attributes like unconditional love, care, acceptance) behind - they, (the integrated pair) will wait with their souls for (and expect) ashurin / notable arba'ati / thought to hold on to and 'asharan / an assembly.  And when they have fulfilled their term, then there is no junaaha / inclination to wrong doing upon you for what they do in anfusihinna / their souls with full knowledge (and recognition). And Allah is khobiran / All Aware with what you do.

2:235    There is no junaaha / inclination to wrong doing upon you in whatever arradtum / you show with it (your separate self that is in your full knowledge).  From khitbah / exhortation of an-nisa / the passionate urges (emotional drive that fuel motivation, creativity, empathy and determination to pursue knowledge and morality) or you conceal within your souls, Allah knows that you satadhkurunahunna / will be embodying the masculinities of them. And do not promise them secretly except for saying of knowledge (and a recognition).  And do not determine to undertake a knot of nikah / commingle / to be infected / until the kitab / the inherent script delivers / reaches its end. And know that Allah knows what is within your souls, so beware of Him. And know that Allah is Forgiving and Forbearing.

2:236    There is no junaaha / inclination to wrong doing upon you if you talaq / separate the nisa / passionate urges (emotional drive that fuel motivation, creativity, empathy and determination to pursue knowledge and morality) you have not touched (or felt) nor specified for them an obligation. But give advantage - sufficiently according to his capability and insufficiently according to his capability - a benefit with full knowledge (and recognition), haqqan / an entitlement  upon muhsinin / one whose experience is of true knowledge.

2:237    And if you talaq / separate them (the passionate urges) from after that tamasuhunna / you have touched them and indeed you are obligated for them an obligation, then half of what you are obligated - unless they forgive what they forgive the one in whose hand is the knot of infection. And that ta'fu / to forgo it is akrabu / nearer to taqwa / being mindful (to Allah).  And do not forget the fadla / (Allah's) given advantage between you. Indeed Allah , of whatever you do, is Seeing.

2:238    Haafizhu / preserve (guard) over the salawaati / connections (with hidden messages delivered by rasul / inner voice for download) and salaatil wusta / the mediated connection (by own independent thought process free of conditioning) and quumu / establish (the hidden knowledge) for Allah qaanitin / devoutly obedient.  

2:239    Then if you fear rijalan / an independent thought process (for analysis, reason and rationalization), or a rukbanan / work on others strength then when you are secured, fadhkuru / then embody the masculinity faculty of consciousness as He has taught you that which you did not know.

 
 
2:240    And those who are yutawaffauna / completed (the dissociation by dissolution of all close attachments and relationships) among you and leave azwajan / an integrated pair (zakara and unsa) behind - an order for azwajihim / their integrated pair (zakara and unsa) an advantage for change (from its original state) without driving (them) out. Then if they leave, then there is no inclination to wrong doing upon you in what they do in their anfus / souls from full knowledge (and recognition). And Allah is Exalted in Might and Wise (provider of understanding based on Allah's law with facts and empirical evidence). 
 

2:241    And for mutalaqqati / the one who is separated is an advantage with full knowledge (and recognition of the separate self) - a truth upon the muttaqin / those who are mindful / conscious. 

 2:242    Thus, Allah makes clear to you His ayaati / signs, that you may ta'qilun / comprehend (use your pure logical mind).

2:243    Have you not considered those who left from their diyaar / home of encircling thoughts and they ulufun / were familiar, hazara / beware almauta / the lifeless state (without awareness of truth for the soul)? Allah said to them, "Mutu / be lifeless"; then alive (of the true self) to them. Indeed, Allah surely is possessor of fadhlin / given advantage over an-nas / the agitated mind and that akthara / most of the an-nas / agitated mind do not show gratitude.

2:244    Qaatilu / Killing (of the separate self by educating) in the way of Allah, and know that Allah is sami'un / Hearing and 'alim / Knowing.

2:245    Who is it that would detach (to) Allah a goodly (fully) detachment so He may multiply it for him many times over? And it is Allah who withholds and grants abundance, and to Him you will be returned.

2:246    Have you not considered al mala-i / the state whose thoughts filled (grounded with egoistic, long conditioned and self interest) from the bani Israel (those who construct the spiritual journey to seek guidance) from after Musa / the one who is familiar with the truth, when they said to a nabi / who proclaim and establish (news of the ghaib) of theirs, "Ab'asa / raise (to life) for us malikan / an inner authority (the authority within the consciousness field), and we will contend / struggle in the way of Allah " He said, "Would you perhaps kill if prescribed upon you killing ?"  They said, "And why should we not kill in the cause of Allah when we (our separate self) have been driven out from our diyaar / state of encircling thoughts (that is our identity) and from our children / thoughts that we have given birth to?" But when killing was prescribed for them, they turned away, except for a few of them. And Allah is Knowing of the zhaalimin / unjust (thoughts from your logical mind, putting things in wrong place like accepting the signs / representation, as the reality). 

2:247    And their nabi / who proclaim and establish (news of the ghaib) said to them: Surely Allah has raised (to life) talut / (thought) young fresh knowledge to be malikan / an inner authority (authority within the consciousness field) over you. They said, "How can he hold the mulku / inner authority (within the consciousness field) over us while we have a greater right to the mulki / authority of the consciousness field than he, and he has not been granted an abundance of hidden knowledge? He said: Surely Allah has chosen him in preference to you, and He has increased him abundantly in knowledge and embodied the truth, and Allah grants His mulka / authority within His consciousness field to whom pleases (wants), and Allah is All Encompassing, Knowing.

2:248    And their nabiyyu / those who proclaim and establish (news of the ghaiba) said to them: Surely the sign of His mulki / divine authority (where authority is within the consciousness field) is, that there shall be given to you the taabut / distinction (of the true self from the separate self) in which there is sakiinah / tranquillity from your Rabb / Lord and a remnant of what was left by a'lu / those familiar (with) Musa / who is strong in rational thinking and a'lu / those familiar (with) Harun / strongwill to deliver the truth, tahmiluhul malaa'ikah / conception (and taking shape) of the sovereignty (full authority over mind, body and soul).  Surely there is a sign in that for those mukminin / who take security (with their unfettered independent logical mind).

2:249    So when Talut / who is young (early enthusiast in the initial phases) with junudi / enlisted fresh hidden knowledge to be malikan / a sovereign authority (one ruler one authority) over you, set out with the junudi / enlisted fresh hidden knowledge, he said: Surely Allah will try you with a river flow of hidden knowledge; whoever then drinks (digests and taints with your conditioned mind) from it, then (the understood knowledge) not from me, and whoever does not digest of it, then indeed he is from me, except whoever takes with his hand as much of it as fills the hand (meaning digest (understand) what is needed according to his capacity without conditioning the self); then they sharibu / drank (digested and understood) from it except a few of them. So when he jaaqazahu / had processed it (in his mind), he and those who trust with him (the assembly of thoughts) said: We have the moment no capability against Jalut (what is exposed and made clear) and junudihi / his enlisted fresh hidden knowledge. Those who were yazhunnun / certain that they would meet Allah, they said: How many has a small party overcame a large party by Allah's permission, and Allah is with the patient.

2:250    And when they (Talut) went out against Jalut (seen or displayed as having authority, notable and well known) and his junudi / enlisted fresh knowledge they said: Our Rabb / Lord, pour down upon us patience, and make our steps firm and assist us against al qaumi / the group of established thoughts, the kaafirin / rejecters (of the signs of Allah).

2:251    So they defeated them by permission of Allah, and Dawud (who is capable to break up stubborn and wild thoughts) killed Jalut / deluded as the one having authority, notable and well known, and Allah gave him (Dawud) the authority and the hikmata / understanding based on facts and taught him from that which he (Dawud) wants. And if it were not for Allah repelling an-nas / the agitated mind among themselves, the ardh / lower consciousness would have been fasadati / corrupted, but Allah is the possessor of fadlin / given advantage to the 'alamin / all the factual knowledge.

2:252    These are the ayaati / signs of Allah which We recite to you, with the truth. And indeed, you are from among mursalin / the inner voices that deliver the messages. 

 
 
2:253    These are the rusul / inner voices (that deliver ayaati, Al Kitab and Hikmah from your Rabb) We faddhal / gave advantage (to) some of them over some from them one to whom Allah spoke and rafa / raised some of them in darajat / degrees and We gave bayyinaat / clarities (separating truth from falsehood) to Isa / who is fortified (with ruh al qudus) abna / construct ( brought about) of Maryam / ardent pursuit to discover, and ayyadna / We supported (strengthened) him with the ruh al qudus / the holy spirit (essence of the truth).  And if Allah willed, those after them would not have fought one with another after bayyinaat / clarities (separating truth from falsehood) had come to them, but they ihtalafu / represent (the truth); so there were some of them who trust (and take security) and others who rejected / denied (ayaati of Allah); and if Allah willed they would not have fought one with another, but Allah brings about what is wished / intended. 
  

2:254    O you who aamanu / take security (in Al Kitab), anfiqu / self-experience (the reform by putting the knowledge into practice) of what We have provided you from before that comes a moment in which there is no bai'un / exchange (for betterment) and no khullatun / friendship (someone who watches you and will not let you slip to danger) and no shafa'ah / intercession (step-in with the truth from Al Kitab). And the kaafirun / rejecters / those who cover truth - they are the zhaalimun / unjust (putting things in wrong place like accepting the signs / representation, as the reality).

2.255    Allah, la ilaaha illa huwa / no reality of being except Him, the Ever Living, the Ever Establish.  No sinatun / slumber (state of drowsiness) can ta'huzuhu / seize Him nor naumun / sleep (state of inactivity or not knowing).  Whatever is in the higher consciousness and in the lower consciousness is for Him.  Who is there that can intercede (step-in with the truth from Al Kitab) in His presence except with His permission.  He knows what is between aidihim / their hands (experiences of own self) and what is kholfahum / their representations (manifestation of the truth).  And nor shall they encompass with anything from His knowledge except with what he wills.  His kursiyy / structure that support the truth, extends over the higher consciousness and the lower consciousness and He feels no burden in guarding and preserving both of them.  And He is the High, the Supreme.

2:256    There shall be no compulsion in the deen / indebted obligations to consciously obey (Allah's system, judgment and law). Surely (the discourse is) to distinguish the rightly guided from the wrong. So whoever reject / deny (ayaati of Allah and replace) with taghut / taking security in falsehood and yukminu / (evolve) take security with Allah surely grasps the most trustworthy handhold with no break in it.  And Allah is Hearing and Knowing.

2:257    Allah is wali / guardian of those who aamanu / trust / take security (in Al Kitab).  He brings them out of the darkness (without guidance) into the nur / brightness (with guidance); and those who kafaru / reject (ayaati of Allah), their guardians are taghut / other than Allah (illusory otherness), who take them out of the brightness (with guidance) into the darkness (without guidance); they are the companions (intellect of logical mind and ladunni of intuitive mind) of the nar / burning sensation of internal conflicts (that burn an-nas), in it they shall abide.

2:258    Have you not seen the one who haajja / reasoned out (with) Ibraahim (who is strongly inclined towards Allah's education system) about his Rabb / Lord that Allah had given him the mulka / authority? When Ibraahim said, "My Rabb / Lord is the one who gives life (with awareness of truth for the soul) and yumitu / will make lifeless (without awareness of truth for the soul)," he said, "I give life and 'umitu / make lifeless." Ibraahim said, "Indeed, Allah brings up with the shamsi / brightness / illumination / clarity from the mashriq / illuminated state (from darkness), so bring with it (the truth) from the maghrib / darkness state (from illuminated)." So the kafara / rejecter (of ayaati of Allah) was amazed / overwhelmed, and Allah does not guide the qaumi / group of established thoughts, the zhalimin / wrongdoers.

2:259    Or as the one who passed over qariah / community of thoughts (connected by shared values) and it (had become) destituted (dead / lifeless) upon 'urushiha / its construction.  He said, "How will Allah bring this to life after mautiha / it is lifeless (without awareness of truth for the soul)?" So Allah caused him to mata / be lifeless (without awareness of truth for the soul) mi'ata / remain 'aamin / floating (without any purpose in life); then He resurrect him. He said, "How long have you remained (crying in pain)?" (He) Said, "I have remained a moment or part of a moment." He said, "No, you have remained (crying in pain) floating. Look at the knowledge you consumed / understood and your drink / experiences practiced; it has not changed.  And look at you reddened / burning with rage and anger; and We will make you a sign for the an-nas / agitated mind. And look at the greatness (of this rage and anger) - how nunshizu / We elevate them and then We cover them laham / knitted closely (closely consolidated)." And when it became clear to him, he said, "I know that surely Allah measures over all things."

2:260    And when Ibrahim / who is strongly inclined to Allah's system of education said, "O my Rabb / Lord, show me how will you give life to the lifeless (soul)".  He said, "Do you not trust?"  He said, "Yes / certainly, but for the satisfaction of my heart."  He said, from the bird (flight of wild and fantasy thoughts) take four then train / form / mould (that is educate and reform) them towards you.  Then make division / section (break down the problem) from them on every jabalin / a fixed headed thoughts (intolerant and obstinate).  Then invoke them.  They will make an effort / endeavour to come to you.  And know that Allah is mighty, hakim / wise (provider of deeds based on the truth with facts and empirical evidence).

2:261    The example of those who yunfiqun / self-experience (the reform by putting the knowledge into practice) their wealth of knowledge, in the way of Allah is like habbah / a pleasure of receiving love and affection anbatat / which produces sab'a / congregated well-groomed mental development; in each sunbulatin / well-groomed mental development is mi'atu / remain of habbah / love and affection. And Allah multiplies the assertion to those who want. And Allah is all-Encompassing and Knowing.

2:262    Those who yunfiqun / self experience their wealth of knowledge (to reform), in the way of Allah then do not follow through (unpracticed) what they anfaqu / self-experienced (with) mannan / strength (that Allah has given when they were weak) and no adhan / abuse (of what Allah has given), will have their reward with their Rabb / Lord, and there will be no fear concerning them, nor will they grieve.

2:263    Qaulun / a saying makrufun / known facts and forgiveness are better than genuine / truthful way followed by adhan / abuse (of the knowledge given).  And Allah is free of need and Forbearing.

2:264    O you who aamanu / took security (in Al Kitab)! Do not make your sodaqat / genuine / truthful way worthless with manni / strength (that Allah has given when you were weak) and adha / abuse (the knowledge given), like the one who yunfiqu / self-experience (the reform by putting the knowledge into practice) his wealth of knowledge showing off by an-nas / agitated mind and does not take security in Allah and the yawmil aakhiri / moment of ending (dissolving duniya including mind, body and soul); so his parable is as the parable of shafwanin / a purification upon it turabun / layers of illusions fa-ashabahu / then fell on it, then a disastrous consequence leaving behind it (any possibility of) saidan / ascension in his reform; they shall not be able to yaqdiru / measure anything of what they have earned; and Allah does not guide the qauma / group of established thoughts, the kaafirin / rejecters.

2:265    And the example of those who yunfiqun / self-experience (the reform by putting the knowledge into practice) their wealth of knowledge seeking means to the approval of Allah and assuring (reward for) their souls is like jannatin / a hidden garden on high ground which is hit by a downpour - so it yields its fruits in double.  And (even) if it is not hit by a downpour, then a drizzle (is sufficient).  And Allah bashirun / sees with what you do.

2:266    Would anyone of you like to have jannatun /  hidden garden of knowledge (for guidance) from nakhilin / structured and a'nabin / related / significant (to the subject matter) underneath which rivers of knowledge flow in which he has from every al-thamara / the increased intellect (that is knowledge from every sectors)?  And reaches him kibaru / full grown and weak zuriatun / scattered thoughts, then reaches it i'sarun / a squeezed / forced out (thought) in it (is) narun/ a burning sensation of internal conflict (that burn an-nas) so is bursted / flared up.  Thus Allah make clear to you (His) aayati / signs so that you might tatafakkarun / ponder / give thought.

2:267    O you who aamanu / took security (in Al Kitab), anfiqu / self-experience (the reform by putting the knowledge into practice) from good what you have earned and out of what We brought forth for you from the al ardh / lower consciousness. And do not tayammamu / pay attention toward the bad therefrom, tunfiquna / self-experience while you would not take it except with your connivance at it (willingly and you cannot do that if you are involved in the illegal and immoral act).  And know that Allah is self-sufficient and Praiseworthy. 

2:268    Shaitan / whisper (from despair) that seduce (from the right path) threatens you with poverty and orders you to immorality, while Allah promises you forgiveness from Him and fadlan / a given advantage. And Allah is all-Encompassing and Knowing.

2:269    He gives the hikmah / understanding based on facts, to who wills (the hikmah), and whoever has been given the hikmah / understanding based on facts, has certainly been given much good.  And none yazakkaru / will embody the divine masculine attributes, except ulul albab / those of understanding (the one who independently rationalize and justify to what is given by Allah). 

2:270    And whatever you anfaq / self-experience (the reform by putting the knowledge into practice) of nafaqatin / contributions for self-experiences (for the reform) or you nazar / pledge, indeed, Allah knows of it. And for the zhaalimin / unjust (who put things in wrong place like accepting the signs / representation, as the reality), there are no helpers. 

2:271    If you tubdu / make apparent your sadaqaati / genuine / truthful way, it is (a life of) good and pleasant; and if you conceal them and give them to the poor (who are not having the knowledge), it is better for you, and He yukaffiru / will cover about you from your misdeeds. And Allah, with what you do, is All Aware.

2:272    Huda / guide in the right way is not incumbent on you but Allah guides aright who wills (for the guidance) and whatever good thing tunfiqu / you self-experience from goodness, it is for your own souls and you do not tunfiqu / self-experience (to reform) except to seek Allah's wajhi / care (love); and whatever good things you self-experience shall be paid back to you in full, and you shall not be wronged. 

2:273    (Sadaqah / genuine / truthful way) for the fuqara / poor (those who are poor of the hidden knowledge) have been limited in the way of Allah, unable to move about in the lower consciousness.  The jaahilu / ignorant (who consciously avoid seeking knowledge) would think of them as self-sufficient because of their limitation, but you will recognize them by their mark. They do not ask people persistently. And whatever you self-experience (the reform) of good - indeed, Allah is Knowing of it.

2:274    Those who yunfiqun / self-experience (the reform by putting the knowledge into practice) their wealth of knowledge by darkness (without guidance) and illumination (with guidance), secretly and apparently - they will have their reward with their Lord. And no fear will there be concerning them, nor will they grieve.

2:275    Those who consume riba / artificial swelling of knowledge cannot yaqumu / establish (the transformation of soul) except as what is yaqumu / establish by those who is being beaten by the shaytan (act from despair) from one of its touch. That is because they say, "Exchange (transform for betterment) is like ar-riba / the artificial swelling of knowledge." But Allah has permitted the exchange (transform for betterment) and has forbidden ar-riba / the artificial swelling of knowledge. So whoever has received maw'izatun / a sermon from his Rabb / Lord and become strong to fight (the riba) putting it to an end whatever salafa / experienced before, and his affair rests with Allah. But whoever returns to (ar-riba)- those are the companions (intellect of logical mind and ladunni of intuitive mind) of an-nar / the burning sensation of internal conflicts (that burn an-nas); they will abide eternally therein.

2:276    Allah cancels ar-riba / the artificial swelling of knowledge and increases sadaqat / genuine and truthful way and Allah does not love any rejecter, sinner.


2:277    Indeed, those who aamanu / take security (in Al Kitab) and do the solehati / reform / correct oneself and establish (rooted, solidified and ingrained) salaat / connections (with hidden messages delivered by rasul / inner voice for download) and give az-zakah / mental growth and development will have their reward with their Rabb / Lord, and there will be no fear concerning them, nor will they grieve. 
 
 
 
2:278    O you who aamanu / trust / take security, ittaku / be mindful / be conscious of Allah and leave off what remains ar-riba / the artificial swelling of knowledge if you mukminin / those who take security (from your unfettered independent logical mind).  
 

2:279    Then if you do not (leave off what remains of ar-riba / the artificial swelling of knowledge) so take a notice of war from Allah and His rasul / inner voice (that deliver ayaati, Al Kitab and Hikmah from your Rabb) and if you turn back, then the heads / leaders of your wealth (knowledge from education by Allah) are for you.  You do not oppress and you will not tuzlamun / be wronged.

2:280    And if he is in difficulties, then respite is given to him towards easiness and that you give saddaqu / genuine / truthful way, that is better for you if you would have known.

2:281    And attaqu / be mindful / be conscious of a moment you will be returned in it to Allah. Then every nafs / soul tuwaffa / will be completed for what it earned, and they will not be treated yuzlamun / wrongly / unjustly.

2:282    O you who aamanu / take security (in Al Kitab), when you reach a contract (that create obligations) with dainin / (to) consciously obey (Allah's system, law and judgment) towards a distinguished term then write or institute it (in your mental house).  And let (it) writes between you a writing with adl / justice and (should) not refuse to write, as Allah has taught him.  So let him write and let bind the one on whom is the haq / truth. And let him yattaki / be mindful of Allah, his Rabb / Lord, and let (him) not leave anything out of it. Then if the one who has the haq / truth is of limited understanding or weak or unable to bind himself, then let his guardian bind in justice. And bring to witness two witnesses from your rijal / independent thought process (for analysis, reason and rationalization). And if there are not two rijal / independent thought processes, then a rijal / independent thought process, and two imrat / obstinate or disputing thoughts from those whom you accept as witnesses - so that if one err, fatuzakkira / then the other can embody the masculinity. And let not the witnesses refuse when they are invoked upon. And do not be weary to write it, whether it is small or large, for its term. That is more just in the sight of Allah and aqwaamu / stronger (in establishing the transformation of soul) to witness (the evidence) and more likely to prevent doubt between you, except when it is an immediate transaction which you conduct among yourselves. For there is no blame upon you if you do not write it. And take witnesses when you conclude a contract. Let no scribe be harmed or any witness. For if you do so, indeed, it is disobedience with you. And take guard of Allah. And Allah teaches you. And Allah is Knower of all things. 

2:283    And if you are on safarin / state of absence (zero / blank mind) and cannot find (a thought) katiban / to institute, farihaanun / then pledge a holding on (not letting it go). And if some part of you entrusts another, then let him who is entrusted discharge his trust and let him take guard of Allah , his Rabb / Lord. And do not conceal testimony, for whoever conceals it - his heart is indeed sinful, and Allah is Knowing of what you do.

2:284    To Allah belongs whatever is in the samaawaat / higher consciousness and whatever is in al ardh / the lower consciousness. Whether you show what is within anfusikum / your souls or conceal it, Allah will bring you to account for it. Then He will forgive who wills (for forgiveness) and punish who wills (for punishment), and Allah measures over all things.

2:285    The rasul / inner voice (that deliver ayaati, Al Kitab and Hikmah from your Rabb) has trusted / took security in what was revealed to him from his Rabb / Lord, and (so have) the mukminin / those who take security (from their unfettered independent logical mind).  All of them trusted / took security in Allah and malaaikah / state of inner authority (where authority is placed within the consciousness field) and his kutubu / inherent scripts (that has been instituted in mind) and his rusulih / inner voices (that deliver ayaati, Al Kitab and Hikmah from your Rabb), "We make no distinction between any of His rusulih / inner voices (that deliver ayaati, Al Kitab and Hikmah from your Rabb)." And they say, "We hear and we obey. (We seek) Your forgiveness, our Rabb / Lord, and to You is the destination."

2:286    Allah will not give a task to nafsan / a soul except to her capacity.  What she earns is for her and what she has earned is for her.  O our Rabb / Lord do not catch us if we forget and we make a mistake.  O our Rabb / Lord do not load a burden on us like you burdened on those from before us.  O our Rabb / Lord do not burden us with that and we do not have the strength with it.  Pardon us and forgive us and arhamna / have mercy (guidance of Ar Rahmaan) on us.  You are our protector so help us over the qaum il kafirin / the rejected group of established thoughts.
