class=\"has-text-align-left\"><strong>COMMENTS:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\"><strong>1.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/strong>Our Reading today begins with Verse&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.altafsir.com\/ViewTranslations.asp?Display=yes&amp;SoraNo=11&amp;Ayah=28&amp;toAyah=28&amp;Language=2&amp;LanguageID=2&amp;TranslationBook=4\">28<\/a>&nbsp;(from page&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.altafsir.com\/Quran.asp?SoraNo=11&amp;Ayah=20&amp;NewPage=224&amp;Tajweed=1\"><strong>224<\/strong><\/a>) where Prophet Noah, peace upon him, responds to the&nbsp;accusations&nbsp;of his people (discussed last time).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">He begins with the endearing words \u2018O my people\/ Ya Qawmi,\u2019 then tells them that he was (calling upon them) upon <em>bayyinah\/ <\/em>evidence from his Lord-Sustainer and had received Mercy from him, and that this evidence had been made blind\/ obscure to them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">Note that Prophet Noah did not accuse his people of being blind -or even blinded- to it:&nbsp; It is the evidence itself which had remained obscured to them! &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">Here, the Qur\u2019an not only shows us Noah\u2019s character, but it also teaches us how to speak to people we are trying to convince -without accusing them and putting them immediately on the defensive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">His was what Yusuf Ali calls:&nbsp;\u2018a&nbsp;pattern of humility, gentleness, firmness, persuasiveness, truth, and love for his own people.\u2019&nbsp;&nbsp;Commentators, such as Zamakhshari and others, have highlighted Noah\u2019s beautiful response, showing that it is in line with HQ&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.altafsir.com\/ViewTranslations.asp?Display=yes&amp;SoraNo=2&amp;Ayah=256&amp;toAyah=256&amp;Language=2&amp;LanguageID=2&amp;TranslationBook=7\">2:256<\/a>, as indeed any Divine Message is:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">&nbsp;\u0644\u0627 \u0625\u0643\u0631\u0627\u0647 \u0641\u064a \u0627\u0644\u062f\u064a\u0646<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\"><em>\u2018\u2026there is no coercion in Accountability\u2026.\u2019&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">Indeed, this statement rings true at all times:&nbsp; The Standard of Accountability cannot be enforced.&nbsp; Each of us has a personal standard of accountability we&nbsp;<em>feel and respond to, keeping ourselves in line with what we believe.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/em>No one&nbsp;<em>can<\/em>&nbsp;enforce any Standard of Accountability upon others!<a href=\"#_ftn1\" id=\"_ftnref1\"><sup>[1]<\/sup><\/a>&nbsp;&nbsp;<em><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">At the end of the verse Prophet Noah asks a reassuring rhetorical question \u201c<em>Would we force you into it while you are averse to it?\u201d <\/em><em><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">Let us see how Arabic translates into English:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">This single Qur\u2019anic word, \u2018<em>anulzimikumooha,\u2019<\/em> becomes seven words in English!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">This is the second longest word in the Qur\u2019an (made up of ten letters, while the longest (in HQ 15:22 is made up of 11).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">2.&nbsp;Verses&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.altafsir.com\/ViewTranslations.asp?Display=yes&amp;SoraNo=11&amp;Ayah=29&amp;toAyah=29&amp;Language=2&amp;LanguageID=2&amp;TranslationBook=7\">29<\/a>&#8211;&nbsp;<a

my People,\u2019 as Prophet Noah presents his case, asserting that he asks no financial benefit for himself, for his reward is with God.&nbsp; He refuses their arrogant demand (which we got a glimpse of when they spoke of \u2018lower class\u2019 people) and says that he will not dismiss <a><\/a><a>Those Who Attained Faith<\/a>, who shall be meeting their Lord-Sustainer.&nbsp; Here he shows them both his needlessness of them due to his reliance on God, as well as his unrelenting devotion and guardianship of the Faithful. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">Notice his tact here as well, as he <em>indirectly warns them <\/em>that they too shall be meeting their Lord!&nbsp; At the end of verse 29 he tells them that they are a people who are not knowing\/ <em>tajhaloon<\/em>, rather than calling them \u2018ignorant\/ jaahiloon\u2019 (using a present tense verb rather than labeling them with a noun).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">In verse 30 he shows how dangerous for him it would be to expel those whom God Himself would defend, telling them to reflect upon that.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">In verse&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.altafsir.com\/ViewTranslations.asp?Display=yes&amp;SoraNo=11&amp;Ayah=31&amp;toAyah=31&amp;Language=2&amp;LanguageID=2&amp;TranslationBook=7\">31&nbsp;<\/a>Prophet Noah begins by stating something similar to what Prophet Muhammad was commanded to say in HQ&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.altafsir.com\/ViewTranslations.asp?Display=yes&amp;SoraNo=6&amp;Ayah=50&amp;toAyah=50&amp;Language=2&amp;LanguageID=2&amp;TranslationBook=7\">6:50<\/a> (discussed earlier).<a href=\"#_ftn2\" id=\"_ftnref2\"><sup>[2]<\/sup><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">Prophet Noah then returns to defending those whom his people had scorned (and had also alleged that God would not bring benefit to), for God Alone knows the reality of what is in their selves.&nbsp; He announces that, were he to drive them out, he would be of the \u2018Thaalimeen\/ Wrongdoers,\u2019 having wronged people of faith.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">3.&nbsp;&nbsp;In Verse&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.altafsir.com\/ViewTranslations.asp?Display=yes&amp;SoraNo=11&amp;Ayah=32&amp;toAyah=32&amp;Language=2&amp;LanguageID=2&amp;TranslationBook=7\">32<\/a>&nbsp;Noah\u2019s people express their weariness at the lengthy discourse\/ argument with him, and they challenge him to bring about what he had forewarned!&nbsp;&nbsp;Their daring to do that shows us how deep into Denial they must have been.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">He responds (Verse&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.altafsir.com\/ViewTranslations.asp?Display=yes&amp;SoraNo=11&amp;Ayah=33&amp;toAyah=33&amp;Language=2&amp;LanguageID=2&amp;TranslationBook=7\">33<\/a>&#8211;&nbsp;<a

up to God, and they will never escape it.&nbsp;He adds that his good counsel \u2018nuSH\/ \u0646\u064f\u0635\u062d\u2019<a href=\"#_ftn3\" id=\"_ftnref3\"><sup>[3]<\/sup><\/a> has done them no good.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">It is almost as if he is speaking to himself, indicating that he has done his best and if God \u2018yureed\/ intended and initiated\u2019 for them a state of darkness and corruption (which isn\u2019t the case),<a href=\"#_ftn4\" id=\"_ftnref4\"><sup>[4]<\/sup><\/a> then He is their Lord and to Him shall they return.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p

addressed to Prophet Muhammad in the middle of Prophet Noah\u2019s story, showing the similarities between their experiences, peace upon both.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">Prophet Muhammad is to tell them that, if indeed the Qur\u2019an had been a fabrication, then he is responsible for such a breach\/ \u2018ijraam,\u2019<a href=\"#_ftn5\" id=\"_ftnref5\"><sup>[5]<\/sup><\/a> while being completely inculpable of the breaches which they are committing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">In Verse <a

one else would ever attain faith, other than those who already have done so, and that he should not be distressed (\u0641\u064e\u0644\u064e\u0627&nbsp;\u062a\u064e\u0628\u0652\u062a\u064e\u0626\u0650\u0633\u0652) by what they were doing.<a href=\"#_ftn6\" id=\"_ftnref6\"><sup>[6]<\/sup><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p

not attempt any argument, <a href=\"https:\/\/tanzil.net\/#search\/quran\/%D9%84%D8%A7%20%D8%AA%D8%AE%D8%A7%D8%B7%D8%A8%D9%86%D9%8A\">similar to HQ 23:27.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p

Noah was building the Arc while bearing his people\u2019s derision\/ contempt (\u0633\u062e\u0631\u064a\u0629),<a href=\"#_ftn10\" id=\"_ftnref10\"><sup>[10]<\/sup><\/a> and we hear him warning them

God\u2019s command initiating the beginning of the flood with the bubbling \u2018tannoor.\u2019&nbsp; Exegetes had different explanations for this, some saying it was the earth that started bubbling with water, others said it was the furnaces (or volcanoes) that started spurting water,<a href=\"#_ftn11\" id=\"_ftnref11\"><sup>[11]<\/sup><\/a> and God knows best.&nbsp; God commanded Prophet Noah to carry on board \u2018one pair of each,\u2019 referring probably to the cattle, livestock and other living creatures in that area, perhaps even plants.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">It is interesting to note that, despite all his efforts, very few were the people who were with him in Eman\/ faith and trust!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">We spoke about \u2018the few\u2019 earlier, may we be among \u2018the few.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">Readers can check interpretations of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.altafsir.com\/ViewTranslations.asp?Display=yes&amp;SoraNo=11&amp;Ayah=40&amp;toAyah=40&amp;Language=2&amp;LanguageID=2&amp;TranslationBook=4\">Yusuf Ali<\/a>&nbsp;and <a

the unembellished interpretation of&nbsp;<a

truer to the original.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">Note that the Qur\u2019an does not say \u2018animals\u2019 nor does it say \u2018male and female,\u2019 although that must be what is intended (it just says \u2018of each one pair,\u2019 which might relate not only to animals, but also to crops).&nbsp;&nbsp;To understand the Qur\u2019an as revealed, we must clear our minds of all additional narrative which includes thinking that \u2018the entire world was being engulfed in water,\u2019 or that Noah had to take \u2018every kind of domestic and exotic animal on board.\u2019&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">Biblical stories also seem to have been exaggerated.<a href=\"#_ftn12\" id=\"_ftnref12\">[12]<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">Best is to say \u2018Allaahu a3lam.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">In Verse&nbsp;<a

on board his Arc by declaring:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\"><strong>\u2018<a>In the name of God<\/a>, it shall take its course <\/strong><em>\u2018majraaha\/ \u0645\u062c\u0631\u0627\u0647\u0627 \u2019<\/em><strong> and (in the name of God) it shall set anchor, my Lord-Sustainer is indeed Oft-Forgiving, Unceasingly Merciful.\u2019<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\"><a><u>Sound Meaning<\/u><\/a>:<a href=\"#_ftn13\" id=\"_ftnref13\"><sup>[13]<\/sup><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">It is interesting to note that the lengthened alif at the center of the word <a>\u2018majraaha\/<\/a> \u0645\u062c\u0631\u0627\u0647\u0627 \u2019 -according to the Qur\u2019anic qiraa\u2019ah of HafS<a href=\"#_ftn14\" id=\"_ftnref14\"><sup>[14]<\/sup><\/a> &#8211; must be recited with \u2018imaalah\/ \u0625\u0645\u0627\u0644\u0629\u2019<a href=\"#_ftn15\" id=\"_ftnref15\"><sup>[15]<\/sup><\/a> slanted \u2018aa\u2019 so as to sound more like a yaa\u2019\u064a\u2026.(like when \u2018a\u2019 in \u2018car\u2019 becomes \u2018a\u2019 in \u2018care\u2019).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">Why is that so?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">Probably has to do with the meaning of sounds as detailed by Ibn Jinni.<a href=\"#_ftn16\" id=\"_ftnref16\"><sup>[16]<\/sup><\/a> &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">The \u064a sound -as he tells us- denotes a moderate yet extended effort, which offers us here in this verse a highly descriptive, emotive, audible \u2018flowing\u2019 of the waters with the arc upon it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">6.&nbsp;&nbsp;In the next verse (Verse <a href=\"http:\/\/www.altafsir.com\/ViewTranslations.asp?Display=yes&amp;SoraNo=11&amp;Ayah=42&amp;toAyah=42&amp;Language=2&amp;LanguageID=2&amp;TranslationBook=7\">42<\/a>) we are told that the Arc \u2018ran its course\u2019 in&nbsp; mountain-size waves, and we hear Noah -the father- call upon his son endearingly; his son who was in a place apart (O My Sonny\/ ya Bunayya)<a href=\"#_ftn17\" id=\"_ftnref17\"><sup>[17]<\/sup><\/a> \u2013 telling him to \u2018irkab ma3ana\/ get on board\/ ride with us, and do not be with the Deniers (sharing their fate).&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">Sound Meaning:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">Interestingly, the \u2018ba\u2019 sound at the end of the word \u2018irkab\/ \u0627\u0631\u0643\u0628 \u2019 -according to the Qur\u2019anic qiraa\u2019ah of HafS &#8211; must NOT be recited, but rather, must be replaced with a \u2018mm\u2019 sound!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">Again related to the meaning of sounds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">The \u2018m\u2019 sound -as mentioned in earlier footnote- indicates \u2018joining, coming together\u2019 (as the lips rejoin).. which allows us to HEAR&nbsp; Prophet Noah\u2019s desperation as he beseeches his son to join him on the Arc or else he will drown!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">But as we see in Verse&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.altafsir.com\/ViewTranslations.asp?Display=yes&amp;SoraNo=11&amp;Ayah=43&amp;toAyah=43&amp;Language=2&amp;LanguageID=2&amp;TranslationBook=7\">43<\/a>, his son who obviously was a Denier who would not follow his father, opted to take refuge on higher ground, saying that a mountain would be his stronghold (away) from the waters.&nbsp;&nbsp;Noah tries again to convince him, telling him that there is no stronghold at this time to save from God\u2019s command -unless one were to receive God\u2019s Mercy- and as the waves come in between them we learn that he was of those who drowned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">7.&nbsp;&nbsp;Our Reading ends with Verse&nbsp;<a

earth to swallow its water and the sky to cease, and as the waters receded, the Arc settled upon the Judi (thought by some to be a mountain in Mosul, and by others, in Turkey).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p

class=\"has-text-align-left\">Through language and Qur\u2019anic context we saw how the word \u2018deen\u2019 rewound itself back to its original meaning of \u2018accountability.\u2019&nbsp; We noted <a href=\"https:\/\/www.altafsir.com\/ViewTranslations.asp?Display=yes&amp;SoraNo=2&amp;Ayah=256&amp;toAyah=256&amp;Language=2&amp;LanguageID=2&amp;TranslationBook=7\">Asad\u2019s explanation (note 249)<\/a>&nbsp;in which he posited \u2018deen\u2019 as \u2018the contents of, and the compliance with, a morally binding law\u2026\u2019 and that the meaning depends on context, which could be
