7:148 - The people of Moses made in his absence out of their ornaments the image of a calf (for
worship): it seemed to low: did they not see that it could neither speak to them nor show them
the way? They took it for worship and they did wrong. 111211131114
8:20 - O ye who believe! obey Allah and his apostle and turn not away from him when ye hear (him
speak).
13:31 - If there were a Qur'an with which mountains were moved or the earth were cloven asunder
or the dead were made to speak (this would be the one!) But truly the Command is with Allah
in things! Do not the Believers know that had Allah (so) willed He could have guided all
mankind (to the Right)? But the Unbelievers never will disaster cease to seize them for their
(ill) deeds or to settle close to their homes until the Promise of Allah come to pass for verily
Allah will not fail in His promise. 18471848
14:31 - Speak to My servants who have believed that they may establish regular prayers and spend
(in charity) out of the Sustenance We have given them secretly and openly before the coming
of a Day in which there will be neither mutual bargaining nor befriending. 190519061907
1907 The great Day of Reckoning would be one on which all values would be changed. Wealth, as understood in this world,
would no longer count. Should we not therefore use any wealth we have in this life, to give here and receive there?
Bai inlcudes all bargaining,-barter, purchase and sale, etc. In this world, where wealth has some value, let us spend it
and get for ourselves "treasures in heaven." In the next life each man will stand on his merits and personal
responsibility. One man cannot help another. Let us here help each other to become true and righteous, so that our
personal account may be favourable there. (14.31)
21:63 - He said: "Nay this was done by this is their is their biggest one! Ask them if they can speak
intelligently!"
21:65 - Then were they confounded with shame: (they said) "Thou knowest full well that these
(idols) do not speak!" 2722
2722 Literally, "they were turned down on their heads" which may suggest a metaphorical somersault, i.e., they recovered
from their dawning shame for idolatry and were prepared to argue it out with the youth Abraham. But I think there is
better authority for the interpretation I have adopted. (21.65)
27:85 - And the Word will be fulfilled against them because of their wrongdoing and they will be
unable to speak (in plea). 3315
3315 There will be no plea, because the charge will be only too true. The Decree will be passed and executed. (27.85)
36:65 - That Day shall We set a seal on their mouths. But their hands will speak to Us and their
feet bear witness to all that they did. 4011
4011 The ungodly will now be dumbfounded. They will be unable to speak or offer any defence. (The consequences of all
acts, which follow according to Allah's Law, are, in Quranic language, attributed to Allah). But their silence will not
matter. Their own hands and feet will speak against them. "Hands and feet" in this connection are symbolical of all the
instruments for action which they were given in this life. The same extended meaning is to be understood for "eyes" in
the following verse. Cf. also xli. 20- 21, where eyes, ears, and skins are all mentioned as bearing witness against such
as misused them. (36.65)
42:51 -It is not fitting for a man that Allah should speak to him except by inspiration of from behind a
veil or by the sending of a Messenger to reveal with Allah's permission what Allah wills: for He
is Most High Most Wise. 4597459845994600
4597 This leads us on to the higher spiritual meaning of verses 49-50, as leading up to verses 51-53. Man is but a speck in
Allah's creation. His growth and family relationships are not by any means comparable to Allah's creative acts, whose
various stages are referred to in n. 120 to ii. 117, n. 916 to vi. 94, and n. 923 to vi. 98. That being so in the mysteries
of man's daily life, how much more profound is the contrast between man and Allah in the apprehension of the higher
spiritual problems concerned with Revelation? How can man be fit to speak to Allah? He is not fit. But there are three
ways in which Allah, in His infinite Mercy, communicates with man, as described in verses 51-53. (42.51)
49:2 - O ye who believe! raise not your voices above the voice of the Prophet nor speak aloud to
him in talk as ye may speak aloud to one another lest your deeds become vain and ye
perceive not. 49204921
4920 It is bad manners to talk loudly before your Leader. Some ill-mannered people so raise their voices as to drown the
voice of their Leader, in conversation or in Council. (49.2)
