5833 Besides the gift of the faculties, Man has been shown the Way by means of Revelation, through men of the highest
spiritual standing. If he is grateful, he will accept Guidance, be of the Righteous, and join the company of the Blessed.
If not, he puts chains round himself, thus burdening himself with sin, and gets into the Blazing Fire of Punishment. See
next verse. His choice rests on his will. (76.3)

and (cooking) Cauldrons fixed (in their places): "Work ye sons of David with thanks! But few of
My servants are grateful!" 38063807
3806 Mihrab (Plural Maharib), translated "arch", may be applied to any fine, elevated, spacious architectural structure. As
the reference here is to the Temple of Solomon, the word "arches" is I think most appropriate. "Arches" would be
structural Ornaments in the Temple. Images would be like the images of oxen and Cherubim mentioned in II.
Chronicles, iv. 3 and iii. 14; the Basons (11. Chronicles iv. 22) were perhaps huge dishes round which many men
could sit together and eat, according to ancient Eastern custom, while the cooking Cauldrons or Pots (II. Chronicles,
iv. 16), were fixed in one place, being so large in capacity that they could not be moved about. Indian readers will get
some idea of them from the huge cooking Degs, which they use in the festivals. (34.13)
3807 The building of the Temple was a great event in Israelite history. They are asked to be thankful without which all that

GRAVES:
22:7 - And verily the Hour will come: there can be no doubt about it or about (the fact) that Allah will
raise up all who are in the graves.
35:22 - Nor are alike those that are living and those that are dead. Allah can make any that He
wills to hear; but thou canst not make those to hear who are (buried) in graves. 3905
3905 The final contrast is between the Living and the Dead; those whose future has in it the promise of growth and
fulfilment, and those who are inert and on the road to perish. With Allah everything is possible: He can give Life to the
Dead. But the human Teacher should not expect that people who are (spiritually) dead and buried will by any chance
hear his call. (35.22)
