وَقُرْءَانًا فَرَقْنَٰهُ لِتَقْرَأَهُۥ عَلَى ٱلنَّاسِ عَلَىٰ مُكْثٍ وَنَزَّلْنَٰهُ تَنزِيلًا

«古兰经» 必须满足两类人的需要: (a) 它必须解答直接听讲的人们所提出的各种暂时性的反对意见来满足刚刚改信伊斯兰教的那些人的精神要求; (b) 它必须为人类大量的和各种各样的问题地制订出合乎每一世界的指导方针。涉及麦加多神教徒的许多反对意见的那些经文, 以及对早期穆期林的精神教育的那些经文, 自然应该首先予以启示, 而涉及人类持久性精神需求的那些经文要启示得较后一些。因此, «古兰经» 的经文是每隔一个时期逐渐地启示的。每当不信的人提出一项反对意见时, 就启示一些包含对这样一项反对意见的解答的经文。同样地, 在早期穆斯林要求提供对某一时机的指导方针时, 必须启示必要和有关
的一些经文来满足该一时机的需要。那就是 «古兰经» 原来启示的顺序。可是, 由于 «古兰经» 的直接听讲的人们的临时需要不同于人类总的永久性的要求, «古兰经» 在后来编成经本时的经文顺序, 自然和原来启示的顺序不同了。
25:33; 73:5.
The Qur’an had to meet the needs of two classes of people: (a) It had to answer the temporary objections of its immediate addressees and to satisfy the immediate spiritual needs of the first converts to Islam: and (b) it had to lay down guidance for the multitudinous and multifarious problems of mankind for all time. The verses dealing with the objections of Meccan idolaters and the spiritual upbringing of early Muslims naturally had to be revealed first and those which dealt with the lasting spiritual human needs were revealed afterwards. Thus the Quranic verses were revealed piecemeal and at intervals. Whenever a particular objection was raised by disbelievers, verses containing the answer to such an objection were revealed. Similarly, when the early Muslims were required to be provided with guidance at a particular occasion, necessary and relevant verses were revealed to meet the needs of that occasion. That was the order in which the Qur’an was originally revealed. But since the temporary needs of

Commentary:
This verse explains why the present order of the chapters and verses of the Quran is different from the order in which they were originally revealed. As a matter of fact the Quran had to meet the needs of two classes of people: (a) It had to answer the temporary objections, of its immediate addressees and satisfy the immediate needs of the first converts to Islam; and (b) it had to lay down guidance for the multitudinous and multifarious problems of mankind for all time. The verses dealing with the objections of Meccan idolaters and the spiritual upbringing of early Muslims naturally had to be revealed first and those which dealt with the lasting spiritual human needs were revealed afterwards. Thus the Quranic verses were revealed piecemeal and at intervals. Whenever a particular objection was raised by disbelievers, verses containing the answer to such an objection were revealed. Similarly, when early Muslims were required to be provided with guidance at a particular occasion, necessary and relevant verses were revealed to meet the needs of that occasion. That was the order in which the Quran was originally revealed. But since the temporary needs of the immediate addressees of the Quran were different from the permanent requirements of mankind in general, the order in which the Quran was later compiled in the form of a book had naturally to be different from that in which it was originally revealed. It may be noted that the present order of the chapters of the Quran and of the verses was also made in accordance with Divine command. There are traditions which clearly relate that whenever a verse or a group of verses was revealed to the Holy Prophet, he would send for one of the recorders and direct him to record the revealed verse or verses indicating to him at the same time the chapter and the particular place in it to which they belonged. This shows that whenever the Holy Prophet received a certain revelation he was also divinely informed where the revealed verse or verses were to be placed. It is indeed an outstanding miracle of the Quran that it was revealed in an order which was best suited for the needs of the period during which it was revealed and was arranged for permanent use in the order which was also best suited for humanity’s permanent needs. The subject of the Quranic verses having been revealed in one order and subsequently arranged in a different order has been dealt with at some length in General Introduction.

تَنزِيلًا مِّمَّنْ خَلَقَ ٱلْأَرْضَ وَٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ ٱلْعُلَى
Commentary:
The verse gives the reason why revelation of the Quran will bring success to the Holy Prophet and his followers. It is that the Quran has been revealed by the Creator of heavens and earth i.e. the Source of all power, and that its teachings possess all those qualities and characteristics that go to make a people strong and powerful.

Commentary:
The reference in the verse may be to the Battle of Badr when rain came as a welcome relief to Muslims, and angels descended in large numbers to help them. Elsewhere the Quran says that in the battlefield of Badr as many as five thousand angels descended to attack disbelievers (3:125-126). It further says, "God revealed to the angels, saying, ‘I am with you; so give firmness to those who believe. I will cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve. Smite, then, the upper parts of their necks, and smite off all finger-tips" (8:13).

The verse purports to say that the revelation of the Qur’an is no new phenomenon. Like the Messages of the Prophets mentioned above the Quranic Message has also been revealed by God, but with this difference that whereas the former Prophets were sent to their respective peoples, the Qur’an has been revealed for all the nations of the world, because it is a revelation from the Lord of all the worlds.

Commentary:
The verse continues the theme of the preceding verses. It purports to say that the revelation of the Quran is no new phenomenon. As the messages of the Prophets mentioned above were revealed by God, so has this last message for all mankind also been revealed by Him, but with this difference that whereas the former Prophets were sent to their respective peoples, the Quran has been sent for all the nations of the world, because "it is a revelation from the Lord of all the worlds."

یعنی یہ ایسی کتاب ہے کہ نہ اس کے سامنے باطل ٹھہر سکتا ہے اور نہ اس کی تعلیم کے جاری کرنے کے نتیجہ میں باطل کو کوئی مدد مل سکتی ہے۔ یہ اس لئے ہے کہ اس قرآن کو بڑی حکمت والے اور بڑی تعریفوں والے خدا کی طرف سے اتار گیا ہے۔
