الآية رقم (26) - إِنَّ اللَّهَ لاَ يَسْتَحْيِي أَن يَضْرِبَ مَثَلاً مَّا بَعُوضَةً فَمَا فَوْقَهَا فَأَمَّا الَّذِينَ آمَنُواْ فَيَعْلَمُونَ أَنَّهُ الْحَقُّ مِن رَّبِّهِمْ وَأَمَّا الَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ فَيَقُولُونَ مَاذَا أَرَادَ اللَّهُ بِهَـذَا مَثَلاً يُضِلُّ بِهِ كَثِيراً وَيَهْدِي بِهِ كَثِيراً وَمَا يُضِلُّ بِهِ إِلاَّ الْفَاسِقِينَ

(26) - “Indeed, Allah is not timid to present an example - that of a mosquito or what is smaller than it. And those who have believed know that it is the truth from their Lord. But as for those who disbelieve, they say, "What did Allah intend by this as an example?" He misleads many thereby and guides many thereby. And He misleads not except the defiantly disobedient,”

It has a marvellous blood cycle, a needle which can prick, draw blood and then analyse it and, amazing reproductive and digestive systems. It is one of the most delicate creations, thus it is given as a parable from the Omniscient.

To this day, new discoveries regarding the mosquito are being found. Thus, Allah U says:

﴾إِنَّ اللَّهَ لا يَسْتَحْيِي أَنْ يَضْرِبَ مَثَلاً مَا بَعُوضَةً فَمَا فَوْقَهَا ﴿ “Indeed, Allah is not timid to present an example – that of a mosquito or what is smaller than it”.

Fama Fauqaha which means ‘that which is above it’ here means everything which is smaller and more delicate than it, not that which is higher than it.

﴾فَأَمَّا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا فَيَعْلَمُونَ أَنَّهُ الْحَقُّ مِنْ رَبِّهِمْ﴿ “And those who have believed know that it is the truth from their Lord.”.

This is because, the believer knows that Allah U has wisdom in everything.

﴾وَأَمَّا الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا فَيَقُولُونَ مَاذَا أَرَادَ اللَّهُ بِهَذَا مَثَلاً يُضِلُّ بِهِ كَثِيراً وَيَهْدِي بِهِ كَثِيراً وَمَا يُضِلُّ بِهِ إِلاَّ الْفَاسِقِينَ﴿

“But as for those who disbelieve, they say, “What did Allah intend by this as an example?” He misleads many thereby and guides many thereby. And He misleads not except the defiantly disobedient”: Al-Fasiq which means ‘the disobedient’ is the person who separates himself from the principles set by Allah U. In its linguistic usage however, when the verb Fasaqa is used for a fruit, it refers to the fruit that separates itself from its skin easily. Thus, the one who leaves the order set by Allah U is named a Fasiq
