20:82

كُلُوا۟ مِن طَيِّبَٰتِ مَا رَزَقْنَٰكُمْ وَلَا تَطْغَوْا۟ فِيهِ فَيَحِلَّ عَلَيْكُمْ غَضَبِى ۖ وَمَن يَحْلِلْ عَلَيْهِ غَضَبِى فَقَدْ هَوَىٰ

English - Hazrat Molavi Sher Ali ^ra

‘Eat of the good things that We have provided for you, and transgress not therein, lest My wrath descend upon you; and he on whom My wrath descends shall perish;

English - Five Volume Translation

[a]Eat of the good things that We have provided for you, and transgress not therein, lest My wrath descend upon you; and he on whom My wrath descends, shall perish;[2296]

2:58; 7:161.

Important Words:

فیحل (lest it descend) is formed from حل. They say حل بالقوم i.e. he alighted or descended and stopped at or in the abode of the people.

حل الدین means, the time of the payment of the debt has ended i.e. its payment has become due.

یحل علیکم غضبی means, lest My wrath befall you; lest it become due to you i.e. lest it overtake you at once (Lane & Aqrab). See also 2:169.

ھوی (shall perish). ھویالشیء means, the thing fell from a high to a low place; it rose and descended. According to some الھوی (alhawiyyu) is used for going up and الھوی (alhuwiyyu) for going down. ھوت الام means, the mother died; or may his mother die (Aqrab).

Commentary:

At three places in the Quran the sending down of manna and salwa has been mentioned; viz. in the present verse and in vv. 2:58 and 7:161 and at all these three places the fact has been followed by the injunction, 'Eat of the good things that We have provided for you'. This shows that whereas the food which was provided to the Israelites in the wilderness of Sinai was wholesome, palatable and good in taste; it consisted not of one but of several things, من (truffle) and سلوی (quails) forming the major part of them.

The injunction in the words "And transgress not therein" contained a warning to the Israelites that as they had been provided with food in abundance in the wilderness without much labour on their part and purely as an act of God’s grace, they should not misuse this divine gift, the powerful and the influential among them hoarding it for themselves and depriving the poor and the weak of their due share.

English - Short Commentary Translation

And admonished you: [b]‘Eat of the good things that We have provided for you, and transgress not therein, lest My wrath descend upon you; and he, on whom My wrath descends, shall perish;[1840]

اردو ترجمہ مرزا طاہر احمد خلیفة المسیح الرابعؒ

جو رزق ہم نے تمہیں عطا کیا ہے اس میں سے طیّب چیزیں کھاؤ اور اس بارہ میں حد سے تجاوز نہ کرو ورنہ تم پر میرا غضب نازل ہوگا اور جس پر میرا غضب نازل ہو تو وہ یقیناً ہلاک ہوگیا۔
