Commentary on 5:27
Magsalaysay ka, O Sugo, sa mga naiinggit na tagalabag sa katarungan na ito kabilang sa mga Hudyo ng sanaysay ng dalawang anak ni Adan na sina Cain at Abel ayon sa katapatang walang pag-aalangan hinggil doon nang naghandog silang dalawa ng alay na ipinapanlapit-loob ng bawat isa sa kanilang dalawa kay Allāh – kaluwalhatian sa Kanya. Tumanggap si Allāh sa alay na inihandog ni Abel dahil ito ay kabilang sa mga may pangingilag sa pagkakasala. Hindi Siya tumanggap sa alay ni Cain dahil ito ay hindi kabilang sa mga may pangingilag sa pagkakasala. Minasama ni Cain ang pagtanggap sa alay ni Abel dala ng inggit at nagsabi: "Talagang papatayin nga kita, O Abel." Nagsabi naman si Abel: "Tumatanggap lamang si Allāh ng isang alay mula sa sinumang nangilag magkasala sa Kanya sa pamamagitan ng pagsunod sa mga ipinag-uutos Niya at pag-iwas sa mga sinasaway Niya.

قَالُواْ يَٰمُوسَىٰٓ إِنَّا لَن نَّدۡخُلَهَآ أَبَدٗا مَّا دَامُواْ فِيهَا فَٱذۡهَبۡ أَنتَ وَرَبُّكَ فَقَٰتِلَآ إِنَّا هَٰهُنَا قَٰعِدُونَ ٢٤
They said, "O Moses, indeed we will not enter it, ever, as long as they are within it; so go, you and your Lord, and fight. Indeed, we are remaining right here."

[Moses] said, "My Lord, indeed I do not possess [i.e., control] except myself and my brother, so part us1 from the defiantly disobedient people."

[Allāh] said, "Then indeed, it is forbidden to them for forty years [in which] they will wander throughout the land. So do not grieve over the defiantly disobedient people."

لَئِنۢ بَسَطتَ إِلَيَّ يَدَكَ لِتَقۡتُلَنِي مَآ أَنَا۠ بِبَاسِطٖ يَدِيَ إِلَيۡكَ لِأَقۡتُلَكَۖ إِنِّيٓ أَخَافُ ٱللَّهَ رَبَّ ٱلۡعَٰلَمِينَ ٢٨

Indeed, I want you to obtain [thereby] my sin and your sin so you will be among the companions of the Fire. And that is the recompense of wrongdoers."

فَبَعَثَ ٱللَّهُ غُرَابٗا يَبۡحَثُ فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِ لِيُرِيَهُۥ كَيۡفَ يُوَٰرِي سَوۡءَةَ أَخِيهِۚ قَالَ يَٰوَيۡلَتَىٰٓ أَعَجَزۡتُ أَنۡ أَكُونَ مِثۡلَ هَٰذَا ٱلۡغُرَابِ فَأُوَٰرِيَ سَوۡءَةَ أَخِيۖ فَأَصۡبَحَ مِنَ ٱلنَّٰدِمِينَ ٣١
Then Allāh sent a crow searching [i.e., scratching] in the ground to show him how to hide the disgrace1 of his brother. He said, "O woe to me! Have I failed to be like this crow and hide the disgrace [i.e., body] of my brother?" And he became of the regretful.
