So the word was ridiculed by the Jews and by a little twist it could give out that insulting meaning of its HEBREW version. Therefore, an unambiguous word UNZORNA with the same meaning was suggested to replace the disapproved word RA"INA"'' COMMENTS The general lesson that we may take out of this incident is that: We should not give pretexts or false reasons to those who may use it as weapon against us.
Even we should beware of issuing a phrase or short sentence, that can be misused by our enemies; and we have to guard ourselves against the cynical tricks of using such words, that sound complementary to the ear, but may have a hidden barb in them. Here is where our duty is manifested more clearly: We sometimes do something or say something, deliberately or unkowingly, by which we give a rope [ 123 ] to our internal or external enemies to hang us!
By misusing that, they get into a fuss, and high annoying ado about trifles. VERSE NO. 105 This uncovers the rancour and hatred of the PAGANS, as well as the faithless, and heretic PEOPLE OF THE BOOK, against we Muslims, saying: ``It is never the wish of those without faith among the people of the BOOK: nor of the pagans, that anything good should come down to you from your Lord, but Allah will choose for HIS special grace whom HE will - For Allah is of Great Grace.'' Yea!
The enemies were not willing to see Muslims with the honour of following a great Messenger of God and a Glorious Divine Book, such as the HOLY QURA"N; merely for being jealous of us, and bearing our grudge! But no one can stop the Grace of God from reaching HIS servants, whenever and wherever HE WILLS.
