وَوَضَعۡنَا عَنۡکَ وِزۡرَکَ
اَلَّذِیۡۤ اَنۡقَضَ ظَہۡرَکَ
穆圣背负起瘁心劳身的重任, 这是任何人都未曾担当过的, 首先是使一个堕落的宗族从道德沦丧的深渊上升到精神美德的顶峰, 然后通过他们涤除全人类的罪恶、无知和妄念等渣滓。这确是一个非凡的重托, 这重托几乎将他压垮了, 但安拉却减轻了他的负荷。
یعنی شریعتِ کامل تجھ پر اتار دی ہے تا کہ خدا کی ہدایت کی روشنی میں چلے اور حیران نہ ہو۔
آپ اسی گھبراہٹ میں غارِ حرا میں جاتے تھے کہ میں اپنی عقل سے خداتعالیٰ کو پانے اور قوم کی اصلاح میں کس طرح کامیاب ہو سکوں گا۔ خداتعالیٰ نے اپنی خاص ہدایت یعنی قرآن مجید کے ذریعہ گھبراہٹ کو دُور کر دیا جیسے کہ سورۃ علق میں تفصیل آتی ہے۔
The Holy Prophet had been saddled with such nerve-racking and backbreaking task as had never been entrusted to any human being, i.e. first to raise a degenerate people from the depths of moral turpitude to the pinnacle of spiritual excellence and, then through them to cleanse and purify the whole of mankind of the dross of iniquity, ignorance and superstition. This was indeed, a very heavy responsibility which had almost crushed him under its weight, but God lightened his burden.

This was indeed a very heavy responsibility which had almost crushed the Prophet under its weight, but God lightened his burden in that He gave him devoted and sincere Companions who shared his burden and helped him in the discharge of his manifold and hard duties.

这章经文是在宣布使命第二年或第三年启示的, 那时除了紧密的邻里之外穆圣几乎不为人所知, 但是不久他就上升为所有宗教导师中最著名、最受人爱戴、最受人尊敬而且最有成绩的人物。不论是宗教的还是世俗的方面, 没有一个领袖像穆圣那样在他的信徒中间博得这样的敬爱。
The Surah was revealed in the second or third year of the Call, at a time when the Holy Prophet was hardly known outside his immediate neighbourhood, but very soon he rose to be the best known and most loved, respected and successful of all religious Teachers. No leader, religious or temporal, has so much commanded the love and respect of his followers as has the Holy Prophet.

فَاِنَّ مَعَ الۡعُسۡرِ یُسۡرًا
“的确, 艰难之后有容易”, 一语重复过两次。这表示伊斯兰教将必须经过异常艰难的时代, 它面临着两次存亡的挑战--------第一次是在它诞生后的头几年, 接着是在过后日子里的--------两次都以重生的力量通过了考验。这几节经文也表示, 穆圣和穆斯林所面临的困难只是暂时的, 而他们的成就是永恒的, 不断扩大的。
The expression, 'Surely, there is ease after hardship,' has been repeated twice. This signifies that Islam will have to pass through very hard times, but on two occasions it will have to face a challenge to its very existence—first in the first few years of its life and then in the Latter Days— and on both these occasions it will emerge from the ordeal with renewed strength. These verses also indicate that the hardships with which the Holy Prophet and Muslims are faced are temporary, but their successes will be permanent and ever-expanding.
Commentary:
The verse holds a message of hope and good cheer for the Holy Prophet. He is comforted with the assurance that whenever Islam would be in difficulty, God would raise a Reformer from among his followers who would restore to it its former glory and greatness. Pointing out the fact that one has to face difficulties and hardships in this life, the Prophet is assured that his tribulation would prove to be of short duration and would soon be followed by increasing ease, success and prosperity.

اِنَّ مَعَ الۡعُسۡرِ یُسۡرًا
یُسْر یعنی کامیابی کا لفظ نکرہ بیان کیا ہے اور اس طرف اشارہ کیا ہے کہ وہ باربار آئے گی مگر عُسْر یعنی تنگی کو معرفہ بیان کیا ہے یعنی وہ ایک مقررہ وقت تک رہ کر ہٹ جائے گی۔ اس آیت میں یہ پیشگوئی کی گئی ہے کہ رسول کریم صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم پر کوئی تکلیف ایسی نہیں آئے گی جو دائمی کہلا سکے۔ لیکن آرام کی گھڑیاں ایسی آئیں گی جو دائمی کہلا سکیں گی۔ چنانچہ مکّہ اور عرب کے لوگ آٹھ سال کے عرصہ میں تباہ ہو گئے‘ لیکن رسول کریم صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے جب مکّہ فتح کیا اور اسلامی حکومت کی بنیاد پڑی اور مسلمانوں کے لئے آسانی کا راستہ کھلا‘ تو یہ حکومت مختلف شکلوں میں بدلتی ہوئی چ
Commentary:
Repetition of the words, "Surely, there is ease after hardship," signifies that Islam will have to pass through very hard times but on two occasions it will have to face a challenge to its very existence, first at its birth and then in the latter days,––and on both these occasions it will emerge from the ordeal with renewed strength. These verses also indicate that the hardships with which the Holy Prophet and Muslims are faced are temporary, but his successes would be permanent and ever-expanding.

73:9; 110:4.
The Holy Prophet is comforted with the assurance that endless vistas of spiritual progress lie before him and that after he has conquered the difficulties that bar his way he should not rest contented with the success achieved, but having scaled one peak he should strive to climb the next, and his attention should be wholly directed towards regenerating a fallen humanity and towards establishing God’s Kingdom on earth. The verse may also signify that when the Holy Prophet has finished his day’s work of teaching and training his followers and disposing of other temporal affairs he should turn to God with all his heart, for his spiritual journey knows no end.

穆圣可以自慰的是, 他深信未来精神进步的无限前景, 而且, 在他克服阻挡他的道路上的困难之后他不会以他所取得的成就而满足, 而是一个高峰接一个高峰地努力攀登, 并将他的注意力完全放在恢复堕落的人性及在大地上建立安拉的天国方面。这节经文也可以表示, 当穆圣完成了教导和训练信徒的日常工作及其他俗务之后, 他将一心求助于安拉, 因为他的精神旅程是没有止境的。
