The Enduring Power of Surah Baqarah’s Final Verses: A Beacon of Hope and Refuge
Surat No 2 : سورة البقرة
بِسۡمِ اللّٰہِ الرَّحۡمٰنِ الرَّحِیۡمِ
شروع کرتا ہوں اللہ تعا لٰی کے نام سے جو بڑا مہربان نہایت رحم والا ہے
In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
سورة البقرة – Ayat No 285
اٰمَنَ الرَّسُوۡلُ بِمَاۤ اُنۡزِلَ اِلَیۡہِ مِنۡ رَّبِّہٖ وَآمَنَ الرَّسُولُ بِمَا أُنزِلَ إِلَيْهِ مِن رَّبِّهِ وَالْمُؤْمِنُونَ ۚ كُلٌّ آمَنَ بِاللَّهِ وَمَلَائِكَتِهِ وَكُتُبِهِ وَرُسُلِهِ لَا نُفَرِّقُ بَيْنَ أَحَدٍ مِّن رُّسُلِهِ ۚ وَقَالُوا سَمِعْنَا وَأَطَعْنَا ۖ غُفْرَانَكَ رَبَّنَا وَإِلَيْكَ الْمَصِيرُ﴿۲۸۵
رسول نے اپنے رب کی طرف سے جو کچھ بھی اُس پر نازل ہوا اور مومنوں نے بھی اس پر ایمان لایا۔ وہ سب نے اللہ پر ایمان لایا اور اُس کے فرشتوں پر اور اُس کی کتابوں پر اور اُس کے رسولوں پر۔ ہم اُن رسولوں میں سے کسی کو بھی دوسرے سے الگ نہیں کرتے۔ اور وہ کہتے ہیں کہ ہم نے سن لیا اور اطاعت کی۔ ہمارے رب! ہمیں بخش دے اور ہماری طرف لوٹنا ہے۔
The Messenger has believed in what was revealed to him from his Lord, and [so have] the believers. All of them have believed in Allah and His angels and His books and His messengers, [saying], “We make no distinction between any of His messengers.” And they say, “We hear and we obey. [We seek] Your forgiveness, our Lord, and to You is the [final] destination.”
سورة البقرة – Ayat No 286
لَا يُكَلِّفُ اللَّهُ نَفْسًا إِلَّا وُسْعَهَا ۚ لَهَا مَا كَسَبَتْ وَعَلَيْهَا مَا اكْتَسَبَتْ ۗ رَبَّنَا لَا تُؤَاخِذْنَا إِن نَّسِينَا أَوْ أَخْطَأْنَا ۚ رَبَّنَا وَلَا تَحْمِلْ عَلَيْنَا إِصْرًا كَمَا حَمَلْتَهُ عَلَى الَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِنَا ۚ رَبَّنَا وَلَا تُحَمِّلْنَا مَا لَا طَاقَةَ لَنَا بِهِ ۖ وَاعْفُ عَنَّا وَاغْفِرْ لَنَا وَارْحَمْنَا ۚ أَنتَ مَوْلَانَا فَانصُرْنَا عَلَى الْقَوْمِ الْكَافِرِينَ
اللہ شخص کو اس سے زیادہ کا بوجھ نہیں دیتا جس کی حد سے وہ بھی ہو۔ اس کے کام اُسی کے لئے ہیں جو وہ کرتا ہے اور اُس پر بھی وہی ہے جو وہ کرتا ہے۔ ہمارے رب! اگر ہم بھول گئے ہوں یا ہم سے غلطی ہوگئی ہو تو ہمیں سزا نہ دینا۔ ہمارے رب! ہم پر وہ بوجھ نہ ڈالنا جیسا تو نے ان لوگوں پر ڈالا تھا جو ہم سے پہلے تھے۔ ہمارے رب! ہم پر وہ بوجھ نہ ڈالنا جس سے ہم سے برداشت نہ ہو۔ اور ہمیں بخش دے اور ہمارے گناہوں کو معاف کر اور ہم پر رحم کر۔ تو ہی ہمارا مولا ہے تو ہمیں کافروں کے لئے مدد فرما۔
Allah does not burden a soul beyond that it can bear. It will have [the consequence of] what [good] it has gained, and it will bear [the consequence of] what [evil] it has earned. “Our Lord, do not impose blame upon us if we have forgotten or erred. Our Lord, and lay not upon us a burden like that which You laid upon those before us. Our Lord, and burden us not with that which we have no ability to bear. And pardon us; and forgive us; and have mercy upon us. You are our protector, so give us victory over the disbelieving people.”

The Holy Quran, a tapestry woven with divine guidance, reaches its climax in the final verses of Surah Baqarah, the second chapter. These two verses, like precious pearls nestled within the oyster of knowledge, offer a potent blend of supplication, forgiveness, and divine promise. Let’s delve into their significance and transformative power.
A Tapestry of Humility and Acceptance
The verses begin with a profound declaration of faith: “We believe in Allah and what has been revealed to us, and what was revealed to Abraham, Ishmael, Isaac, Jacob, and the tribes, and what was given to Moses and Jesus and the prophets from their Lord – we make no distinction between any of them, and we submit to Him in Islam.” This statement resonates with profound humility, acknowledging the shared essence of divine revelation across time and prophets.
Seeking Refuge in Forgiveness and Mercy
Following this declaration, the verses transition into a heartfelt plea for forgiveness: “Our Lord, do not punish us if we forget or err. And our Lord, lay not upon us a burden like that which You laid upon those before us. Our Lord, and burden us not with that which we have no ability to bear. And pardon us, and forgive us, and have mercy upon us. You are our Protector, so help us against the disbelieving people.” This supplication acknowledges human fallibility and seeks refuge in Allah’s infinite mercy. It reminds us that divine forgiveness is not only attainable but essential for our spiritual journey.
The Promise of Divine Guidance
The concluding phrase, “You are our Protector, so help us against the disbelieving people,” offers a powerful assurance of divine support. It reminds us that despite challenges and trials, Allah’s protection is ever-present. This unwavering faith in divine guidance serves as a source of strength and solace for believers navigating the complexities of life.
