QUESTION ASKED ON ANOTHER FORUM
[Please contact Joseph Islam for further details of the original thread]
Interestingly, your post reminded me of 75:32's relationship with 75:31.
75: 31 - For he neither stood by the truth, nor did he follow it. [Sall = To follow, like the runners up horse closely follows the winner, Saabiq = To closely follow the commands of God]
75:32 - Rather, he used to deny and turn away.
It seems that 75:32 is the opposite of 75:31, no?
Therefore, that should help one to understand what "Sallaa" means in 75:31, and it does not look like it is referring to any term synonymous with a plea or commemoration. If we substitute a plea or commemoration meaning in 75:31, then the context of 75:32 would indicate that does not make sense.
