Overview

About this Surah

The subject matter of this Surah indicates that it was revealed during the last stage of the Holy Prophet's residence at Makkah, when the Quraish were considering the question of killing or exiling or imprisoning him. At that time some of the unbelievers put this question (probably at the instigation of the Jews) to test him :'Why did the Israelites go to Egypt?'' This question was asked because they knew that their story was not known to the Arabs for there was no mention of it whatever in their traditions and the Holy Prophet had never even referred to it before.

Verses around 12:43

  1. Ayah 40

    مَا تَعْبُدُونَ مِن دُونِهِ إِلَّا أَسْمَاءً سَمَّيْتُمُوهَا أَنتُمْ وَآبَاؤُكُم مَّا أَنزَلَ اللَّهُ بِهَا مِن سُلْطَانٍ ۚ إِنِ الْحُكْمُ إِلَّا لِلَّهِ ۚ أَمَرَ أَلَّا تَعْبُدُوا إِلَّا إِيَّاهُ ۚ ذَٰلِكَ الدِّينُ الْقَيِّمُ وَلَـٰكِنَّ أَكْثَرَ النَّاسِ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ

    Zij, die gij naast hem aanbidt, zijn slechts ijdele namen, die door u en uwe vaderen zijn uitgedacht, waarvan God geen bewijs heeft gegeven. Het oordeel behoort aan God alleen, die bevolen heeft, dat gij niemand naast hem zoudt aanbidden. Dit is de ware godsdienst; maar het grootste gedeelte der menschen weet het niet.

  2. Ayah 41

    يَا صَاحِبَيِ السِّجْنِ أَمَّا أَحَدُكُمَا فَيَسْقِي رَبَّهُ خَمْرًا ۖ وَأَمَّا الْآخَرُ فَيُصْلَبُ فَتَأْكُلُ الطَّيْرُ مِن رَّأْسِهِ ۚ قُضِيَ الْأَمْرُ الَّذِي فِيهِ تَسْتَفْتِيَانِ

    O mijne medegevangenen! waarlijk, een uwer zal zijn heer wijn toedienen, evenals vroeger, maar de andere zal gekruisigd worden en de vogels zullen van zijn hoofd komen eten. De zaak, waaromtrent gij mij ondervraagt, is onherroepelijk vastgesteld.

  3. Ayah 42

    وَقَالَ لِلَّذِي ظَنَّ أَنَّهُ نَاجٍ مِّنْهُمَا اذْكُرْنِي عِندَ رَبِّكَ فَأَنسَاهُ الشَّيْطَانُ ذِكْرَ رَبِّهِ فَلَبِثَ فِي السِّجْنِ بِضْعَ سِنِينَ

    En Jozef zeide tot hem, die, naar zijn oordeel, de persoon was, welke bevrijd zou worden: Gedenk mij in tegenwoordigheid van uwen heer. Maar de duivel veroorzaakte, dat hij vergat, bij zijn heer melding van Jozef te maken, waardoor deze eenige jaren in de gevangenis bleef.

  4. Ayah 43

    وَقَالَ الْمَلِكُ إِنِّي أَرَىٰ سَبْعَ بَقَرَاتٍ سِمَانٍ يَأْكُلُهُنَّ سَبْعٌ عِجَافٌ وَسَبْعَ سُنبُلَاتٍ خُضْرٍ وَأُخَرَ يَابِسَاتٍ ۖ يَا أَيُّهَا الْمَلَأُ أَفْتُونِي فِي رُؤْيَايَ إِن كُنتُمْ لِلرُّؤْيَا تَعْبُرُونَ

    En de koning van Egypte zeide: waarlijk ik zag in mijn' droom zeven vette koeien, die zeven magere koeien verslonden, en zeven groene korenaren en zeven verdroogde korenaren. O edelen! legt mij mijn visioen uit, indien gij in staat zijt dit te doen.

  5. Ayah 44

    قَالُوا أَضْغَاثُ أَحْلَامٍ ۖ وَمَا نَحْنُ بِتَأْوِيلِ الْأَحْلَامِ بِعَالِمِينَ

    Zij antwoordden: Het zijn verwarde droomen; wij zijn niet bedreven in het uitleggen van zulke droomen.

  6. Ayah 45

    وَقَالَ الَّذِي نَجَا مِنْهُمَا وَادَّكَرَ بَعْدَ أُمَّةٍ أَنَا أُنَبِّئُكُم بِتَأْوِيلِهِ فَأَرْسِلُونِ

    En Jozefs medegevangene, die bevrijd was, zeide (want hij herinnerde zich Jozef, na verloop van eenigen tijd): Ik zal u de uitlegging daarvan geven, laat mij dus tot den persoon gaan, die mij dien droom zal verklaren.

  7. Ayah 46

    يُوسُفُ أَيُّهَا الصِّدِّيقُ أَفْتِنَا فِي سَبْعِ بَقَرَاتٍ سِمَانٍ يَأْكُلُهُنَّ سَبْعٌ عِجَافٌ وَسَبْعِ سُنبُلَاتٍ خُضْرٍ وَأُخَرَ يَابِسَاتٍ لَّعَلِّي أَرْجِعُ إِلَى النَّاسِ لَعَلَّهُمْ يَعْلَمُونَ

    En hij ging naar de gevangenis en zeide: O Jozef! waarheidlievend man, geeft ons de uitlegging van zeven vette koeien, die zeven magere koeien verslonden, en van zeven groene korenaren en zeven verdroogde korenaren, welke de koning in zijn' droom zag, opdat ik kunne terugkeeren tot de personen die mij hebben gezonden, en zij dit wellicht mogen verstaan.

Meccan Surahs

The Meccan Surahs are the earliest revelations sent down to the Prophet Muhammad (صلى الله عليه وسلم). They were revealed in Mecca, hence their name. These revelations form the foundation of the Islamic faith and contain guidance for Muslims on how to live their lives. The Meccan Surahs are also notable for their poetic beauty and lyrical prose.

Medinan Surahs

The Medinan Surahs are the later Surahs that, according to Islamic tradition, were revealed in Medina after the Prophet Muhammad's (صلى الله عليه وسلم) hijra from Mecca. They were revealed by Allah (سبحانه و تعالى) when the Muslim community was larger and more developed, as opposed to their minority position in Mecca.
