3 part Theme of Al-Baqarah

Hear no, Speak no, See No evil.

DEAF, DUMB AND BLIND

This is a repeated theme throughout Surah Baqarah

[2.2] That is a Book, there is no doubt in it, is a guide to those who guard (against evil).

Visually "THAT is a book" BLIND

[2.3] Those who believe in the unseen and keep up prayer and spend out of what We have given them.

Signifying Heart felt/faith "based on the spoken words" but about the unseen so faith is the key to understanding it. 

- Faith/Heart Denying is DUMB

[2.4] And who believe in that which has been revealed to you and that which was revealed before you and they are sure of the hereafter.

- Revelation of the words, requires reasoning rather than faith. Denying is DEAF

[2.5] These are on a right course from their Lord and these it is that shall be successful.

RIGHT COURSE

[2.6] Surely those who disbelieve, it being alike to them whether you warn them, or do not warn them, will not believe.

WRONG COURSE

(Follow there heart first)

[2.7] Allah has set a seal upon their hearts and upon their hearing and there is a covering over their eyes, and there is a great punishment for them.

PSYCHE, HEARING, SEEING

[2.8] And there are some people who say: We believe in Allah and the last day; and they are not at all believers.

PSYCHE - 1

[2.9] They desire to deceive Allah and those who believe, and they deceive only themselves and they do not perceive.

PSYCHE - 2

[2.10] There is a disease in their hearts, so Allah added to their disease and they shall have a painful chastisement because they lied.

 PSYCHE - 3

(Notice additional ayat is ALLAH ADDED)

[2.11] And when it is said to them, Do not make mischief in the land, they say: We are but peace-makers.

HEARING - 1

[2.12] Now surely they themselves are the mischief makers, but they do not perceive.

HEARING - 2

[2.13] And when it is said to them: Believe as the people believe they say: Shall we believe as the fools believe? Now surely they themselves are the fools, but they do not know.

SEEING - 1

[2.14] And when they meet those who believe, they say: We believe; and when they are alone with their Shaitans, they say: Surely we are with you, we were only mocking.

SEEING - 2

[2.15] Allah shall pay them back their mockery, and He leaves them alone in their inordinacy, blindly wandering on.

SEEING - 3

(Notice additional ayat is ALLAH ADDED)

[2.16] These are they who buy error for the right direction, so their bargain shall bring no gain, nor are they the followers of the right direction.

[2.17] Their parable is like the parable of one who kindled a fire but when it had illumined all around him, Allah took away their light, and left them in utter darkness-- they do not see.

[2.18] Deaf, dumb (and) blind, so they will not turn back.

TO explain the wrong cause I have made a table.
