Not only after death will man be given a new life in which his actions in this worldly life will be judged and requited; but in the present life also one generation of men is succeeded by another so that the good works of the former may not be wasted and may benefit the latter. Salihat, besides meaning good and righteous works, means works done in conformity with the exigencies of specific occasions and circumstances.

Commentary:
The purpose for which man has been created is that he should attain nearness to God. It is to this fact that the words, The promise of Allah is true, refer; and we are told that at last all men will attain nearness to God and thus will be fulfilled the real object for which man has been created.
In the words, He originates the creation, then He reproduces it, the reproduction spoken of refers firstly, to the fact that, after death, man will be given a new life in which his actions in this life will be rewarded; and, secondly, that even in the present life one generation of men will succeed another so that the good deeds of a preceding generation may not be wasted and may benefit their successors.
The word صالحات (good) which, besides meaning good and righteous, also means proper and suitable to the occasion (see 2:26), points to a great secret of individual as well as national progress. It is not only good works that lead to the material and moral well-being of individuals and communities but deeds done at suitable occasions conforming to the exigencies of time and circumstances are also essential. The present-day degradation of Muslims supplies an apt through tragic illustration of the neglect of this hard truth. At a time when strong intellectual effort was needed, Muslim divines confined their attention to mere outward acts of religious devotion and neglected other activities which were equally essential for the advancement of the community. It was their duty to inspire Muslims with a passion for work, to make them active and energetic, to improve their standard of morality, to induce them to attain proficiency in modern sciences, and to teach them how to work in collaboration with others in matters of common interest. But they failed to do so, with the result that their religious devotions alone could not save them. It is mostly by صالحات i.e. good works done in conformity with the exigencies of occasion and circumstances, that nations rise and prosper. Muslims ignored this immutable divine law and came to grief.

人类不仅在死后要给予新的生命。在那新的生命中将判断和回报他们在今世的行为; 而且在今生也要一代接一代传下去, 务使前人的好事不要被后人废弃, 而要造福后代。صٰلِحٰت (Salihat), 除了好的和正义的工作这个意义以外, 还可意味着为了适合各种特定时机和情况的迫切要求而做出的工作。

Commentary:
The verse points to a great truth. As all that is in the heavens and the earth belongs to Allah it is vain and foolish to try to please Him or His Messengers by offering them bribes (see the preceding verse). The Prophets of God cannot be prevented from carrying out their mission for the sake of bribes. The Meccans, desiring to stop the preaching of the Holy Prophet against idolatry, offered him every kind of bribe; but the only reply which all those bribes and temptations elicited from him was to the effect that even if they placed the sun on his right and the moon on his left, he would not give up his mission (Hisham & Zurqani).
The fact is that as kings and potentates need the things of this world, therefore bribes and ransoms please them, but God Himself being the Creator of all things, ransoms have no value for Him except that one should offer the sacrifice of one’s own self, which finds ready acceptance with Him, for such sacrifice is a means of self-purification.

In this verse we are told that these people who had remained aloof from the world for a long time will become known to the ends of the earth, and thus the truth of the prophecy about the rise to great power and dominion of Christian nations in the Latter Days will become established and then the promised hour of which these people were warned will come to pass.
In the words, We will surely build a place of worship over them, the Quran reverts again to the early history of the Dwellers of the Cave and mentions one of their distinctive marks which is that their successors, the Christian nations, will build churches in memory of their dead saints. Muslims or Jews have never erected mosques or synagogues to the memory of their departed saints. Christians are the only people who erect churches to perpetuate the memory of their dead saints; they even bury their dead in churchyards. It is worthy of note that many such churches have been found in the catacombs.

It is really love of the world that leads man to sin. This is why "the present life" has been mentioned in the verse before the mention of "the Deceiver" who is Satan. This shows that it is man himself who first becomes mentally corrupt and then Satan comes to deceive and lead him astray.

غَفَرَالْمَتَاع (Ghafaral-Mata‘a) 的意思是, 他把货物放在袋里并且把它们遮盖、保护起来。غُفْرَان (Ghufran) 和 مَغْفِرَة (Maghfirah) 两个单词都是源出 غَفَرَ (Ghafara) 的不定式作名词用, 意为保护和保存。مِغْفَر (Mighfar) 的意指头盔, 因为它保护头部。ذَنْب (Dhanb) 意指人类天性所带有的缺点和弱点, 或者产生有害结果的那些错误。ذَنَبَهٗ (Dhanaba-hu) 意指, 他沿着他的足迹追踪他 (Lane和 مُفْرَدَات --------Mufradat)。اِسْتِغْفَار (Istighfar, 祈求宽恕) 不仅为普通信者所需要, 也为安拉的圣洁之士所需要, 甚至安拉派遣的伟大先知也需要。前者提出 Istighfar (祈求宽恕) 为的是寻求保护, 免得将来犯罪, 也免得过去的失误产生坏的后果; 而后者寻求保护, 使人类的缺点和弱点不会阻碍他们事业的进展。先知们也是人, 他们虽然不会犯罪过, 但他们也承袭着人类的缺点和弱点; 因此他们也要努力祈求宽恕来寻求安拉的帮助和保护。

Ghafaral-Mata‘a means, he put the goods in the bag and covered and protected them. Ghufran and Maghfirah are both infinitive nouns from Ghafara and mean, protection and preservation. Mighfar means helmet, because it protects the head. Dhamb means, such natural failings or frailties as adhere to human nature or such errors as bring about harmful results. Dhanaba-hu means, he followed his trail, not quitting his track (Lane & Mufradat). Istighfar is not only needed by ordinary believers but also by holy men of God, even by God’s great Prophets. While the former offer Istighfar to seek protection against future sins as well as from the evil consequences of past lapses, the latter seek protection from human shortcomings and weaknesses that may hinder the progress of their cause. The Prophets also are human and though they are immune to sin, yet they, too, are heirs to human failings and frailties; so they also need offering Istighfar
Dhambaka, means, sins committed against thee; sins alleged by thy enemies to have been committed by thee; thine human shortcomings and frailties. See {2765}.
30:61.
Important Words:
استـغـفر (ask forgiveness) is derived from غـفر. They say غـفر الشیء i.e. he covered or concealed the thing. غـفر الله ذنبه means, God covered up his sins and forgave him. مـغـفرة and غـفران which are both infinitives, signify God’s forgiveness or His protection of a person against the punishment of his sins and protection against future lapses (Mufradat, Aqrab & Lane). استـغـفر would thus signify, "ask God for مـغـفرة " i.e. covering up of, and for-giveness for, past lapses, and pro-tection from future stumbling. استـغـفار (Istighfar), therefore, is not only needed by ordinary believers but also by holy men of God—even by God’s great Prophets. While the former offer Istighfar to seek protection against future sins as well as from the evil consequences of past lapses, the latter seek protection from human shortcomings and weaknesses that may hinder the progress of their cause. The Prophets also are human and though they are immune to sin, yet they, too, are heir to human failings and frailties and so they too need offering Istighfar to seek Divine help and assistance against these. See also 2:59 & 14:42
ذنب (frailty) is derived from ذنب (dhanaba). ذنبه (dhanaba-hu) means, he followed his tail, not quitting his track. ذنب, therefore, signifies such natural failings or frailties as adhere to human nature. ذنب also means, a fault, an imperfection, a shortcoming, natural weakness, frailty, a misdeed, an offence or error for which one is liable to be called to account or which produces harmful results (Mufradat). Four words i.e. جناح, جرم, إثم and ذنب (all signifying a lapse) have been used in the Quran, but whereas all the four have been used in relation to human beings generally, the first three have not been used with regard to Prophets of God. This shows the great difference between ذنب and other words. See also 3:17.
Commentary:
As against the Bible which has imputed all sorts of heinous crimes and sins to God’s Prophets (Gen. 9:21-22; 19: 30-36 & 2 Sam. 11:2-5), Islam regards them as completely free from all moral lapses. They are born sinless and they remain sinless throughout life. "They are God’s honoured servants and fully carry out His commandments" (21:21, 28). Christian writers have vainly sought to infer from 48:3 and from the verse under comment that as the Holy Prophet was enjoined to ask forgiveness for his ذنب, he must have been guilty of moral lapses. Apart from the fact that a casual study of the context at both the places belies this baseless inference, the argument only exposes ignorance of Arabic idiom on the part of Christian critics. استـغـفر لذنبک is quite a harmless expression, particularly when used about a Prophet of God; and in view of the meanings of the words ذنب and استـغـفار, as given under "Important Words" above, it does not at all bear this sinister construction. The expression only means that the Holy Prophet was enjoined to invoke God’s protection against his human weaknesses standing in the way of the realization of his noble object which was the advance and spread of Islam and the complete and final victory of truth over falsehood. The expression may also mean, "ask forgiveness for them (thine enemies) for the wrongs they have done thee," ذنبک meaning, the wrong done to thee. The Quran regards the Holy Prophet, as indeed all other Divine Messengers, as above any imputation of committing a sin. The Quran has shed some light on the very high stature of the Holy Prophet. It says:
(1) He it is who has raised among the unlettered people a Messenger from among themselves who recites unto them His Signs, and purifies them, and teaches them the Book and Wisdom (2:130; 3:165 & 62:3).
(2) Your Companion has neither erred, nor has he gone astray. Nor does he speak out of his own desire. It is nothing but pure revelation that has been revealed by God (53:3-5).
(3) Verily, those who swear allegiance to thee indeed swear allegiance to God (48:11).
(4) Say, 'If you love Allah, follow me: Then Allah will love you and forgive you your faults' (3:32).
(5) Whoso obeys the Messenger, obeys Allah indeed (4:81).
It is ignorance of Arabic language or misrepresentation of the text of the Quran to say that it regards the great and noble Prophet, who had raised to the highest pinnacles of spiritual glory a whole people, sunk deep in the depths of moral turpitude, and had purified them, liable to commit sins!

استـغـفر (ask forgiveness) is derived from غـفر. They say غـفر الشیء i.e. he covered or concealed the thing. غـفر الله ذنبه means, God covered up his sins and forgave him. مـغـفرة and غـفران which are both infinitives, signify God’s forgiveness or His protection of a person against the punishment of his sins and protection against future lapses (Mufradat, Aqrab & Lane). استـغـفر would thus signify, "ask God for مـغـفرة " i.e. covering up of, and for-giveness for, past lapses, and pro-tection from future stumbling. استـغـفار (Istighfar), therefore, is not only needed by ordinary believers but also by holy men of God—even by God’s great Prophets. While the former offer Istighfar to seek protection against future sins as well as from the evil consequences of past lapses, the latter seek protection from human shortcomings and weaknesses that may hinder the progress of their cause. The Prophets also are human and though they are immune to sin, yet they, too, are heir to human failings and frailties and so they too need offering Istighfar to seek Divine help and assistance against these. See also 2:59 & 14:42
ذنب (frailty) is derived from ذنب (dhanaba). ذنبه (dhanaba-hu) means, he followed his tail, not quitting his track. ذنب, therefore, signifies such natural failings or frailties as adhere to human nature. ذنب also means, a fault, an imperfection, a shortcoming, natural weakness, frailty, a misdeed, an offence or error for which one is liable to be called to account or which produces harmful results (Mufradat). Four words i.e. جناح, جرم, إثم and ذنب (all signifying a lapse) have been used in the Quran, but whereas all the four have been used in relation to human beings generally, the first three have not been used with regard to Prophets of God. This shows the great difference between ذنب and other words. See also 3:17.
Commentary:
As against the Bible which has imputed all sorts of heinous crimes and sins to God’s Prophets (Gen. 9:21-22; 19: 30-36 & 2 Sam. 11:2-5), Islam regards them as completely free from all moral lapses. They are born sinless and they remain sinless throughout life. "They are God’s honoured servants and fully carry out His commandments" (21:21, 28). Christian writers have vainly sought to infer from 48:3 and from the verse under comment that as the Holy Prophet was enjoined to ask forgiveness for his ذنب, he must have been guilty of moral lapses. Apart from the fact that a casual study of the context at both the places belies this baseless inference, the argument only exposes ignorance of Arabic idiom on the part of Christian critics. استـغـفر لذنبک is quite a harmless expression, particularly when used about a Prophet of God; and in view of the meanings of the words ذنب and استـغـفار, as given under "Important Words" above, it does not at all bear this sinister construction. The expression only means that the Holy Prophet was enjoined to invoke God’s protection against his human weaknesses standing in the way of the realization of his noble object which was the advance and spread of Islam and the complete and final victory of truth over falsehood. The expression may also mean, "ask forgiveness for them (thine enemies) for the wrongs they have done thee," ذنبک meaning, the wrong done to thee. The Quran regards the Holy Prophet, as indeed all other Divine Messengers, as above any imputation of committing a sin. The Quran has shed some light on the very high stature of the Holy Prophet. It says:
(1) He it is who has raised among the unlettered people a Messenger from among themselves who recites unto them His Signs, and purifies them, and teaches them the Book and Wisdom (2:130; 3:165 & 62:3).
(2) Your Companion has neither erred, nor has he gone astray. Nor does he speak out of his own desire. It is nothing but pure revelation that has been revealed by God (53:3-5).
(3) Verily, those who swear allegiance to thee indeed swear allegiance to God (48:11).
(4) Say, 'If you love Allah, follow me: Then Allah will love you and forgive you your faults' (3:32).
(5) Whoso obeys the Messenger, obeys Allah indeed (4:81).
It is ignorance of Arabic language or misrepresentation of the text of the Quran to say that it regards the great and noble Prophet, who had raised to the highest pinnacles of spiritual glory a whole people, sunk deep in the depths of moral turpitude, and had purified them, liable to commit sins!

Ghafaral-Mata‘a means, he put the goods in the bag and covered and protected them. Ghufran and Maghfirah are both infinitive nouns from Ghafara and mean, protection and preservation. Mighfar means helmet, because it protects the head. Dhamb means, such natural failings or frailties as adhere to human nature or such errors as bring about harmful results. Dhanaba-hu means, he followed his trail, not quitting his track (Lane & Mufradat). Istighfar is not only needed by ordinary believers but also by holy men of God, even by God’s great Prophets. While the former offer Istighfar to seek protection against future sins as well as from the evil consequences of past lapses, the latter seek protection from human shortcomings and weaknesses that may hinder the progress of their cause. The Prophets also are human and though they are immune to sin, yet they, too, are heirs to human failings and frailties; so they also need offering Istighfar 2612A
Dhambaka, means, sins committed against thee; sins alleged by thy enemies to have been committed by thee; thine human shortcomings and frailties. See {2765}.

The verse embodies two religious principles: (1) Truth must prevail in the long run, but before success comes to men of God they have to go through severe trials and tribulations and their faith has to be tested and proved up to the mark. (2) Prophecies containing warnings of punishment to disbelievers are conditional and subject to postponement, revocation or even cancellation. The word Ba‘d signifies that not all prophecies containing threats are literally fulfilled. They change with the change in the attitude of disbelievers.

Commentary:
The verse refers to two vital principles: (1) Truth must prevail in the long run but before success comes to men of God, they have to go through severe trials and tribulations and their faith has to be tested and proved up to the mark. (2) Prophecies containing warnings of punishment to disbelievers are conditional and subject to postponement, revocation or cancellation. The word بعض (part) signifies that not all prophecies containing threats are literally fulfilled. They change with a change in the attitude of disbelievers. If disbelievers persist in denying and opposing truth they are punished, but if they accept truth, or if they give up opposition and reform themselves, such prophecies are revoked and cancelled.

这节经文体现两个宗教原则: (1) 真理最后必将胜利, 可是信仰安拉的人们在胜利来到之前必得经过许多严酷的磨练和蒙受苦难, 而且他们的信仰必须受到考验并且证明是坚贞不渝的。(2) 含有对不信的人进行惩罚警告的预言是有条件的, 可以延迟、撤回或甚至取消。بَعْض (Ba‘d) 这个单词意示, 不是所有恐吓性的预言都是刻板地要实现的。它们随着不信者态度的改变而改变。

Commentary:
In verse 16, reference was made to a class of men who spend their God-given gifts in the service of noble causes in order to win the pleasure of God, and who are anxious that they might be succeeded by a generation who should carry on their noble work. The verse under comment speaks of those unfortunate people who are born of good and righteous parents and are brought up in very healthy environments and yet lead a life of disbelief and sin.
