Walaqad AAalimtumu allatheenaiAAtadaw minkum fee assabti faqulna lahum koonooqiradatan khasi-een
And you had already known about those who transgressed among you concerning the sabbath, and We said to them, "Be apes, despised."

Tadabbur (Reflection)

Theme of the Ayat

The Punishment of Transformation: Being turned into disgraced creatures for profaning the Sabbath.

The Insight

They were punished for violating the Sabbath restrictions, leading to their transformation into despised apes. Respect divine laws and boundaries. Willful violation of sacred limits, even when driven by greed or convenience, carries consequences that spiritually deform the heart and mind, leading to disgrace.
