وَمَا تَكُونُ فِي شَأْن وَمَا تَتْلُوا مِنْهُ مِنْ قُرْآن...

وَمَا تَكُونُ فِي شَأْن وَمَا تَتْلُوا مِنْهُ مِنْ قُرْآن وَلاَ تَعْمَلُونَ مِنْ عَمَل إِلاَّ كُنَّا عَلَيْكُمْ شُهُوداً إِذْ تُفِيضُونَ فِيهِ وَمَا يَعْزُبُ عَنْ رَّبِّكَ مِنْ مِثْقَالِ ذَرَّة فِي الاَْرْضِ وَلاَ فِي السَّمَاءِ وَلاَ أَصْغَرَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ وَلاَ أَكْبَرَ إِلاَّ فِي كِتَاب مُبِين(( 61 )) 61- YOU WILL NOT BE IN ANY POSITION, NOR DO YOU RECITE ANY RECITAL OF IT, (OF QURA"N) NEITHER YOU DO ANY DEED; EXCEPT THAT, WE ARE WITNESSES OVER YOU, WHEN YOU PROCEED ON IT.

(i.e.GOD OBSERVES ALL YOUR THOUGHT, PRAYERS, AND ACTIONS) AND HIDES NOT FROM YOUR LORD ANY ATOM'S WEIGHT IN EARTH, NOR IN THE HEAVENِAND NOT SMALLER THAN THAT, AND NOR BIGGER, UNLESS IT IS (RECORDED) IN THE PERSPICUOUS BOOK. [ 101 ] THE COMMENTARY EVERYWHERE HE IS THE OBSERVER (VERSE NO. 59 - 61) Here reference is to the forgeries of the unbelievers, and their artificial restrictions, and false religious sanctions that they attributed to God.

It is God who provides for man's sustenance, such a wide variety of food and drink, of animals, vegetables, and minerals; in the land, sea, and air; therefore, no one except Him has the right of legislation, and saying this is lawful and that is unlawful. In the verse: S 5:103 (V2ِP176) some of the superstitious heresies of the idolaters which were part of their creed were discussed on.

They had BAHIRA, a domestic animal given birth to a large number of young onesِThen if the fifth of them was a female, they had the mother's ear slit, and she was dedicated to an idol! They also respected VASILA, a sheep with seven kids or bearing twins. She was set free and declared as unlawful and was dedicated to a certain idol!

:ِ ``Say:ِ Did Allah permit you to do that or you forge lies against Him?'' Consider the people who forge lies against Allah, and invent false gods and untrue creeds, and then attribute it to God's religion and Law. What is their opinion about Resurrection Day and the Final Judgement of God? Do they not believe that at last they shall be called to account and have to answer for their deed, or at least there is always a reaction for every action?

Don't they know that God observes all our thought, movements, and attainments? And that nothing is hidden from His penetrating invisible eyes? God knows everything and His knowledge is a record of everything, for being not subject to space and time.
