On the Season 2 debut of Lost Cultures: Living Legacies , we travel to Bermuda, an Atlantic island whose history spans centuries and continents. Once uninhabited, Bermuda became a vital stop in transatlantic trade, a maritime stronghold, and a cultural crossroads shaped by African, European, Caribbean, and Native American influences. Guests Dr. Kristy Warren and Dr. Edward Harris trace its transformation from an uninhabited island to a strategic outpost shaped by shipwrecks, colonization, the transatlantic slave trade, and the rise and fall of empires. Plus, former Director of Tourism Gary Phillips shares the story of the Gombey tradition, a vibrant performance art rooted in resistance, migration, and cultural fusion. Together, they reveal how Bermuda’s layered past continues to shape its people, culture, and identity today.

Al-Adiyat - The War Horses which run swiftly⁠ ⁠العاديات "The Courser, The Chargers" 1:10

for 49 weeks siden1:10

1:10

Al-Adiyat or The War Horses which run swiftly [1] ( Arabic : العاديات, al-ʿādiyāt , also known as "The Courser, The Chargers") is the 100th chapter ( sūrah ) of the Qur'an , with 11 āyāt or verses. Regarding the timing and contextual background of the revelation ( asbāb al-nuzūl ), it is an earlier " Meccan surah ", which means it is believed to have been revealed in Mecca, rather than later in Medina Summary 1-6 Oaths that man is ungrateful to his God 7-8 Man loves the things of this world 9-11 Man’s secret thoughts shall be discovered in the judgment-day [2] A one liner theme of surah al-adiyat would read that this surah gives an example that horses are more grateful to their owners than men are to their Rabb (Allah). [3] First five ayaat of the surah consist of an oath as a metaphor enforcing the lesson. [4] They describe a scene of horses charging, panting, producing sparks by their hooves, raiding at the time of dawn, stirring up the cloud of dust and arriving a gathering. The substantive proposition is in verses 6-8 that Man is ungrateful to his Lord and himself is a witness to it and he is immoderate in the love of worldly good. [5] The last three ayaat conclude the surah with a rhetorical question that Does the man not know about the time when contents of the graves will be resurrected and that which is in men's breasts shall be brought to light on that Day their Sustainer will show that He has always been fully aware of them Period of revelation Whether this Surah Al-Adiyat is a Makki or a Madani is disputed. But the subject matter of the Surah and its style clearly indicate that it is not only Makki, but was revealed in the early stage of Makkan period. [3] Abdullah bin Masud, Jabir, Hasan Basri, Ikrimah, and Ata say that it is Makki. Anas bin Malik, and Qatadah say that it is Madani; and from Ibn Abbas two views have been reported, first that it is a Makki Surah, and second that it is Madani. But the subject matter of the Surah and its style clearly indicate that it is not only Makki but was revealed in the earliest stage of Makkah. So the surah is considered to be Meccan conclusively. [6] Hadith According to hadith this surah is recommended in Maghrib prayer . Hisham ibn Urwah said that his father used to recite the surahs like the Al-Adiyat is recited. Abu Dawud said: This indicates that those (traditions indicating long surahs) are abrogated, and this is more sound tradition. [7]…

Al-Zalzalah الزلزلة, "The Quake" 1:00

for 52 weeks siden1:00

1:00

Al-Zalzalah ( الزلزلة, al-zalzalah , meaning: "The Quake") is the 99th chapter ( surah ) of the Qur'an , composed of 8 ayat or verses. Although it is usually classified as a Medinan surah , the period during which the surah was revealed is not unanimously agreed upon by Qur'anic exegetes. Other Abrahamic religions also support the idea of punishment to the wrongdoers like in the Day of Judgement Summary 1-5 The judgment-day shall be ushered in by a declare why she trembles 6-8 Men shall be judged according to their deeds [1] The surah begins by describing how on the Day of Judgment, the Earth will give off a terrible earthquake and "throw up her burdens". Through the inspiration of God, the Earth will bear witness to the actions of men it has witnessed. According to Michael Sells, the earth opening up and bearing forth her secrets in this sura is indicative of a birth metaphor. The earth al-'Ard in the feminine gender bears forth of how her lord revealed the final secret to her. Human beings will then realize that the moment of accountability has arrived. This meticulous accountability will reflect good and evil deeds that might have seemed insignificant at the time. [2]…

Al-ʻAlaq العلق "The Clinging Thing" or "The Embryo" 1:35

for 1 year siden1:35

1:35

Al-ʻAlaq ( Arabic : العلق, al-ʻalaq , also known as "The Clinging Thing" or "The Embryo" [1] ), is the 96th chapter of the Qur'an . It is composed of 19 verses. It is sometimes also known as Sūrat Iqrā (سورة إقرا, "Read") Chapter 96 of the Qur'an is traditionally believed to have been Muhammad's first revelation . It is said that while Muhammad was on retreat in the Cave of Hira , at Jabal al-Nour near Mecca , the angel Gabriel appeared before him and commanded him to "Read!". He responded, "But I cannot read!". Then the angel Gabriel embraced him tightly and revealed to him the first lines, "Read: In the name of your Lord Who created, (1) Created man from a clot. (2) Read: And your Lord is the Most Generous, (3) Who taught by the pen, (4) Taught man that which he knew not." [2] (Bukhari 4953). It is traditionally understood the first five ayat or verses (1–5) of Surah Alaq were revealed; however, this is not the first fully complete Surah to be revealed and was actually revealed in 3 parts. Summary 1-5 Angel Gabriel commanding towards Muhammad to recite the first verses of the Qur'an 6-14 Rebuke of Abu Jahl for hindering the Muslim cause. 15 ۩ 19 Abu Jahl threatened with the torments of Hell as punishment. [3] 1-5 The first revelation Main article: Muhammad's first revelation The first five verses of this sura are believed by some commentators to be the first verses of the Quran claimed to be related by Muhammad. He received them while on a retreat in a mountain cave at Hira, just outside the city of Mecca , in 610 CE. A few commentators disagree with this account, claiming that the first revelation was the beginning of surat al-Muddaththir or surat al-Fatiha , but theirs is a minority position. Moreover, the term إِنْسَان‎ insān , which is translated "man, human", appears 65 times in the Qur'an, meaning "humanity". [4] Translation 1. Read! In the Name of your Lord, Who has created (all that exists), 2. Has created man from a clot (a piece of thick coagulated blood). 3. Read! And your Lord is the Most Generous, 4. Who has taught (the writing) by the pen [the first person to write was Prophet Idrees (Enoch)], 5. Has taught man that which he knew not. 6. Nay! Verily, man does transgress all bounds (in disbelief and evil deed, etc.). 7. Because he considers himself self-sufficient. 8. Surely! Unto your Lord is the return. 9. Have you (O Muhammad ()) seen him (i.e. Abu Jahl) who prevents, 10. A slave (Muhammad ()) when he prays? 11. Tell me, if he (Muhammad ()) is on the guidance (of Allah)? 12. Or enjoins piety? 13. Tell me if he (the disbeliever, Abu Jahl) denies (the truth, i.e. this Qur'an), and turns away? 14. Knows he not that Allah does see (what he does)? 15. Nay! If he (Abu Jahl) ceases not, We will catch him by the forelock, 16. A lying, sinful forelock! 17. Then, let him call upon his council (of helpers), 18. We will call the guards of Hell (to deal with him)! 19. Nay! (O Muhammad ())! Do not obey him (Abu Jahl). Fall prostrate and draw near to Allah!…

At-Tīn التين "The Fig, The Figtree" 1:04

for 1 year siden1:04

1:04

At-Tīn ( التين, "The Fig, The Figtree") is the ninety-fifth surah of the Qur'an , with 8 verses Summary 1-4 Oaths that God created man "a most excellent fabric" 5-6 God has made all men vile except true believers 7-8 None may rightly deny the judgment-day [1] This sura opens by mentioning the fig (the sura's namesake), the olive of Jerusalem , Mount Sinai , and "this city secured" (generally considered to be Mecca ) Muhammad Asad , the author of The Message of The Qur'an comments on these verses: The "fig" and the "olive" symbolize, in this context, the lands in which these trees predominate: i.e., the countries bordering on the eastern part of the Mediterranean, especially Palestine and Syria. As it was in these lands that most of the Abrahamic prophets mentioned in the Qur'an lived and preached, these two species of tree may be taken as metonyms for the religious teachings voiced by the long line of those God-inspired men, culminating in the person of the last Judaic prophet, Jesus. "Mount Sinai", on the other hand, stresses specifically the apostleship of Moses, inasmuch as the religious law valid before, and up to, the advent of Muhammad—and in its essentials binding on Jesus as well—was revealed to Moses on a mountain of the Sinai Desert. Finally, "this land secure" signifies undoubtedly (as is evident from 2:126) Mecca, where Muhammad, the Last Prophet, was born and received his divine call. The cosmology of the Qur'an states that God made mankind out of clay . This sura suggests not only this, but that the mould which God used for man was "the best possible". The lowness of the clay has set humanity apart from God; because clay is heavier and more solid than fire , from which the Jinn were made, and light , from which the angels came. However, not all humanity is condemned to absolute removal from God's company. The passage continues that "those who believe and do what is right will have a reward that will never be cut off". A human life, when perfected, will thus rise above its modest origins, giving the human condition a unique possibility for glory on the Last Day . God's judgment, for Heaven or Hell , cannot be contradicted, for "Is not God the best of judges?" — Muhammad Asad, The Message of The Quran…

Al-Inshirāḥ الانشراح "Solace" or "Comfort" or ash-Sharḥ الشرح, "The Opening-Up of the Breast" 0:43

for 1 year siden0:43

0:43

Al-Inshirāḥ ( الانشراح, "Solace" or "Comfort"), or ash-Sharḥ ( الشرح, "The Opening-Up of the Breast") [1] is the ninety-fourth chapter of the Qur'an , with eight or verses. Because of its subject matter, length, style, and placement in the Qur'an, this sura is often coupled with Surah ad-Dhuha (Sura 93). They are generally considered to have been revealed around the same time. Al-Inshirāḥ's subject matter seems a continuation of the reassurance and encouragement given in the preceding chapter and so closely resembles it that both these Surah seem to have been revealed in about the same period under similar conditions. It is an earlier " Meccan surah ", which means it is believed to have been revealed in Mecca, instead of later in Medina. It is typically assumed that this sura is referring to the early days of Muhammad 's prophethood when he would have been unsure about how his people would receive him Summary 1-4 God made Muhammad's mission easy for him 5-8 He is exhorted to labor and pray after the mission is ended The passage asks the reader, who is Muhammad specifically, if God has been a comfort and a remover of obstacles. Whatever personal sorrows this may bring to mind, "Surely, with each difficulty there is ease" This may indeed be the key phrase of this sura; it is repeated in lines 5 and 6 Conversely, the reader is asked to continue their work diligently, even when it grows simple again - for God, Himself is what you are working for. The aim and object of this Surah too is to console and encourage the Holy Messenger (upon whom be Allah's peace) Before his call he never had to encounter the conditions which he suddenly had to encounter after it when he embarked on his mission of inviting the people to Islam. This was by itself a great revolution in his own life of which he had no idea in his life before Prophethood. No sooner had he started preaching the message of Islam than the same society which had esteemed him with unique honor, turned hostile to him The same relatives and friends, the same clansmen and neighbors, who used to treat him with the highest respect, began to shower him with abuse and invective. No one in Makkah was prepared to listen to him; he began to be ridiculed and mocked in the street and on the road; and at every step he had to face new difficulties Although gradually he became accustomed to the hardships, even much severer ones, yet the initial stage was very discouraging for him. That is why first Surah Ad-Duha was sent down to console him, and then this Surah In it, at the outset, Allah says: "We have favored you, O Prophet, with three great blessings; therefore you have no cause to be disheartened. The first is the blessing of Sharh Sadr (opening up of the breast), the second of removing from you the heavy burden that was weighing down your back before the call, and the third of exalting your renown the like of which has never been granted to any man before Further below in the notes we have explained what is implied by each of these blessings and how great and unique these blessings indeed are! After this, the Lord and Sustainer of the universe has reassured His Servant and Messenger (upon whom be peace) that the period of hardships which he is passing through, is not very long, but following close behind it there is also a period of ease. This same thing has been described in Surah Ad-Duha, saying: "Every later period is better for you than the former period, and soon your Lord will give you so much that you will be well pleased" In conclusion, the Holy Prophet has been instructed, so as to say, "You can develop the power to bear and resist the hardships of the initial stage only by one means, and it is this: \`When you are free from your occupations, you should devote yourself to the labor and toil of worship, and turn all your attention exclusively to your Lord'."This same instruction has been given him in much greater detail in Al-Muzzammil: 1-9…

Al-Ḍuḥā الضحى "The Morning Hours", "Morning Bright", "The Early Hours" 1:00

for 1 year siden1:00

1:00

Al-Ḍuḥā ( الضحى, "The Morning Hours", "Morning Bright", "The Early Hours") is the ninety-third chapter of the Qur'an , with 11 or verses. Qur'an 93 takes its name from Arabic its opening word, al-ḍuḥā , "the morning" The chapter begins with oaths . It is often coupled with sura al-Inshirah , sometimes without the basmala between them. It should be taken into consideration that according to many narrations, it is said that surah Ad -Dhuha and surah Al-Inshirah are one surah and should be recited in prayers (salah) together. One can also see the close relation between the subject matter of both the surahs. [1] Summary 1-3 Muhammad comforted by the assurance that God is with him 4-5 The life to come to be preferred to the present life 6-11 Muhammad exhorted to care for the orphan and beggar [2] Theme and Subject Matter Its theme is to console the Holy Prophet (upon whom be peace) and its object to remove his anxiety and distress, which he had been caused by the suspension of Revelation. First of all, swearing an oath by the bright morning and the stillness of night, he has been reassured, so as to say: "Your Lord has not at all forsaken you, nor is he displeased with you." Then, he has been given the good news that the hardships that he was experiencing in the initial stage of his mission, would not last long, for every later period of life for him would be better than the former period, and before long Allah would bless him so abundantly that he would be well pleased. This is one of the express prophecies of the Quran, which proved literally true, afterwards, whereas when this prophecy was made there seemed not to be the remotest chance that the helpless and powerless man who had come out to wage a war against the ignorance and paganism of the entire nation, would ever achieve such wonderful success. Then, addressing His Holy Prophet (upon whom be peace) Allah says:"O My dear Prophet, what has caused you the anxiety and distress that your Lord has forsaken you, and that We are displeased with you? Whereas the fact is that We have been good to you with kindness after kindness ever since the day of your birth. You were born an orphan, We made the best arrangement for your upbringing and care: you were unaware of the Way, We showed you the Way; you were indigent, We made you rich. All this shows that you have been favored by Us from the very beginning and Our grace and bounty has been constantly focused on you."Here, one should also keep in view vv. 37-42 of Surah Ta Ha , where Allah, while sending the Prophet Moses to confront a tyrant like Pharaoh, encouraged and consoled him, saying: "We have been looking after you with kindness ever since your birth; therefore, you should be satisfied that you will not be left alone in this dreadful mission. Our bounty will constantly be with you." In conclusion, Allah has instructed His Prophet (upon whom be peace) telling him how he should treat the creatures of God to repay for the favors He has done him and how he should render thanks for the blessings He has bestowed on him…

Sūrat al-Layl الليل "The Night" 1:51

for 1 year siden1:51

1:51

Sūrat al-Layl الليل "The Night" is the ninety-second sūrah (chapter) of the Qur'an , containing twenty-one āyāt (verses). This sūrah is one of the first ten to be revealed in Mecca . It contrasts two types of people, the charitable and the miserly, and describes each of their characteristics Summary 1-4 Oaths by various natural objects 5-13 The obedient blessed and the covetous accursed 14-16 The covetous warned with hell-fire 17-21 True believers shall be rewarded hereafter [1] Date of the revelations Duration: 2 minutes and 27 seconds.2:27Al-Lail in murattal Masjid al-Haram, Mecca at night Sūrah Al-Lail is a Meccan sura , and was among the first ten surahs to be revealed. Meccan surahs are chronologically earlier surahs that were revealed to Muhammad at Mecca before the hijrah to Medina in 622 CE . They are typically shorter, with relatively short ayat , and mostly come near the end of the Qur'an's 114 sūwar. Most of the surahs containing muqatta'at are Meccan. According to Yusuf Ali , Al-Lail may be placed in the dating period close to Surat Al-Fajr and Ad-Dhuha (93). It is similar in subject matter to the chapter preceding it, Ash-Shams (91) Q92:1–11 By night and Day Allah begins this chapter by swearing a series of oaths: by the night when it envelops the world, by the day when it illuminates and, finally by Himself who has created the male and female (92:1-3). Evidence of these three things are invoked (night, day and gender ) to illustrate how the aims and activities engaged in by both individuals and nations, are, in respect to their moral nature, widely divergent. Verse 92:3 literally means, "Consider that which has created [or "creates"] the male and the female", i.e., the elements which are responsible for the differentiation between male and female. This, together with the symbolism of night and day, darkness and light, is an allusion - similar to the first ten verses of the preceding surah ( Ash-Shams ) - to the polarity evident in all nature and, hence, to the dichotomy (spoken of in the next verse) which characterizes man's aims and motives. Following a style common to the brief chapters, three opposing moral characteristics are presented as illustrations, providing a means from which mankind may judge which of the two lifestyles is being represented By the night as it envelops; By the day as it appears; By Him Who created male and female; Certainly, your efforts and deeds are diverse; As for him who gives and has taqwa ; and believes in al-husnā ; We will make smooth for him the path of ease; But he who is greedy and thinks himself self-sufficient; and denies al-husnā ; We will make smooth for him the path to evil; and what will his wealth avail him when he goes down (in destruction) — Quran 92:1-11 - Yusuf Ali 92:1 وَالَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَى 92:2 وَالنَّهَارِ إِذَا تَجَلَّى 92:3 وَمَا خَلَقَ الذَّكَرَ وَالْأُنثَى Wa-(a)l-laili 'idhā yaghshā By the night as it envelops Wa-(a)n-nahāri 'idhā tajallā By the day as it appears Wa mā khalaqa-(a)dh-dhakara wa-(a)l-‘unthā And (by)he who created the male and female…

Ash-Shams الشمس "The Sun" is the 91st surah of the Qur'an , with 15 ayat or verses. It opens with a series of solemn oaths sworn on various astronomical phenomena, the first of which, "by the sun", gives the sura its name, then on the human soul itself. It then describes the fate of Thamud , a formerly prosperous but now extinct Arab tribe . The prophet Saleh urged them to worship God alone, and commanded them in God's name to preserve a certain she-camel ; they disobeyed and continued to reject his message; they killed the she-camel and God destroyed them all except those who had followed Salih Summary 1-10 Oaths that man’s happiness and misery depends on the purity or corruption he hath wrought in it 11-15 Thamúd destroyed for rejecting their prophet [1 Name of the surah Jalaluddin Al-Suyuti co-author of the classical Sunni tafsīr known as Tafsir al-Jalalayn suggests that some of the sūrahs have been named using incipits (i.e. the first few words of the surah). The Surah has been so designated after the word ash-shams with which it opens. Hamiduddin Farahi wrote that some sūrahs have been named after some conspicuous words used in them. [2] Touched by an Angel: Tafseer Juz ‘Amma is an AlMaghrib Institute Tafsir course [3] which further investigates that the sun (ash-shams) is mentioned in several surahs; the reason why is this one called Surah Shams is because, in it, the sun is mentioned four times. Allah says: 91:1 وَالشَّمْسِ وَضُحَاهَا 91:2 وَالْقَمَرِ إِذَا تَلَاهَا 91:3 وَالنَّهَارِ إِذَا جَلَّاهَا 91:4 وَاللَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَاهَا Translation: By the sun and its brightness, and [by] the moon when it follows it. And [by] the day when it displays it, and [by] the night when it covers it. [Surah Ash-Shams, verses 1-4]. Notice “it,” “it,” “it,” … in Arabic, the pronoun used is haa (هَا), which is feminine. And all the other nouns referred to are masculine; which only leaves Ash-Shams–the sun–which is a feminine word; that’s the “it” referred to in the first four ayaat. [4] Translation (Sahih internatin from quran.com) By the sun and its brightness And [by] the moon when it follows it And [by] the day when it displays it1 And [by] the night when it covers [i.e., conceals] it And [by] the sky and He who constructed it And [by] the earth and He who spread it And [by] the soul and He who proportioned it And inspired it [with discernment of] its wickedness and its righteousness, He has succeeded who purifies it, And he has failed who instills it [with corruption]. Thamūd denied [their prophet] by reason of their transgression, When the most wretched of them was sent forth And the messenger of Allāh [i.e., Ṣāliḥ] said to them, "[Do not harm] the she-camel of Allāh or [prevent her from] her drink."

Al-Balad البلد "The City" 2:00

Al-Balad البلد, "The City" is the 90th Surah or chapter of the Qur'an . It is composed of 20 verses Summary 1-7 Man, though created in misery, yet boasts of his riches 8-16 Captives to be freed and the poor and orphan to be fed 17-20 Description of the companions of the right and left hand The subject matter and style of Qur'anic chapter al balad resemble those of the earliest Surahs revealed at Mecca , [2] but it contains a pointer which indicates that it was sent down in the period when the disbelievers of Makkah had resolved to oppose Muhammad, and made it lawful for themselves to commit tyranny and excess against him In this Surah a vast subject has been compressed into a few brief sentences, and it is a miracle of the Quran that a complete ideology of life which could hardly be explained in a thick volume has been abridged most effectively in brief sentences of this short Surah. Its theme is to explain the true position of man in the world and of the world in relation to man and to tell that God has shown to man both the highways of good and evil, has also provided for him the means to judge and see and follow them, and now it rests upon mans own effort and judgment whether he chooses the path of virtue and reaches felicity or adopts the path of vice and meets with doom First, the city of Makkah and the hardships being faced therein by the Holy Prophet (upon whom be peace) and the state of the children of Adam have been cited as a witness to the truth that this world is not a place of rest and ease for man, where he might have been born to enjoy life, but here he has been created into toil and struggle. If this theme is read with verse 39 of Surah An-Najm ( Laisa lil insani illa ma saa : there is nothing for man but what he has striven for), it becomes plain that in this world the future of man depends on his toil and struggle, effort and striving After this, man's misunderstanding that he is all in all in this world and that there is no superior power to watch what he does and to call him to account, has been refuted Then, taking one of the many moral concepts of ignorance held by man, as an example, it has been pointed out what wrong criteria of merit and greatness he has proposed for himself in the world The person who for ostentation and display squanders heaps of wealth, not only himself prides upon his extravagances but the people also admire him for it enthusiastically, whereas the Being Who is watching over his deeds, sees by what methods he obtained the wealth and in what ways and with what motives and intention he spent it Then Allah says: We have given man the means of knowledge and the faculties of thinking and understanding and opened up before him both the highways of virtue and vice: one way leads down to moral depravity, and it is an easy way pleasing for the self; the other way leads up to moral heights, which is steep like an uphill road, for scaling which man has to exercise self- restraint It is man's weakness that he prefers slipping down into the abyss to scaling the cliff Then, Allah has explained what the steep road is by following which man can ascend to the heights It is that he should give up spending for ostentation, display and pride and should spend his wealth to help the orphans and the needy, should believe in Allah and His Religion and joining the company of believers should participate in the construction of a society which should fulfill the demands of virtue and righteousness patiently and should be compassionate to the people The end of those who follow this way is that they would become worthy of Allah's mercies On the contrary, the end of those who follow the wrong way, is the fire of Hell from which there is no escape…

Al-Fajr الفجر "The Dawn", "Daybreak" 3:32

for 1 year siden3:32

3:32

Al-Fajr ( Arabic : الفجر, "The Dawn", "Daybreak") is the eighty-ninth chapter of the Quran , with 30 verses . [3] The sura describes destruction of disbelieving peoples: the Ancient Egyptians , the people of Iram of the Pillars , and Mada'in Saleh . It condemns those who love wealth and look with disdain upon the poor and orphans. Righteous people are promised Paradise – the final verse says "And enter you My Paradise!". The Surah is so designated after the word wal-fajr with which it opens. [4] Summary 1-4 Various oaths by natural objects 5-13 Unbelievers are warned by the fate of Ád , Thamúd , and Pharaoh [5] 14-17 Man praises God in prosperity, but reproaches him in adversity 18-22 Oppression of the poor and the orphan denounced 23-26 The wicked will vainly regret their evil deeds on the Judgment Day 27-30 The believing soul invited to the joys of Paradise [6] Then the surah discusses that Man praises God in prosperity, but reproaches him in adversity in ayaat 14th to 17th. The discourse then denounces the oppression of the poor in ayaat 18th to 22nd. And approaching the end ayaat 23rd to 25th give the verdict that the wicked will vainly regret their evil deeds on the judgment-day, while ayaat 26th to the 30th gives the good news to the believing soul invited to the joys of Paradise. [7] Period of revelation Quran chapters are not arranged in the chronological order of believed revelation ( wahy ). [8] Muhammad told his followers, the sahaba , the placement in Quranic order of every Wahy revealed along with the original text of Quran. [9] Wm Theodore de Bary , an East Asian studies expert, describes that "The final process of collection and codification of the Quran text was guided by one overarching principle: God's words must not in any way be distorted or sullied by human intervention. For this reason, no serious attempt, apparently, was made to edit the numerous revelations, organize them into thematic units, or present them in chronological order....". [10] [11] Surat Al-Fajr is a Meccan sura [12] and meccan suras are chronologically earlier suras that were revealed to Muhammad at Mecca before the hijrah to Medina in 622 CE . They are typically shorter, with relatively short ayat , and mostly come near the end of the Qur'an's 114 surahs. Most of the surahs containing muqatta'at are Meccan. Henceforth apart from traditions,[ clarification needed ] this surah qualifies to be Meccan typically. According to Yusuf Ali , Al-Fajr may be placed in the dating period close to Surat Al-Lail and Ad-Dhuha . Theme of the surah There are almost seven divisions in the Qur'an[ clarification needed ] according to Themes. [24] [25] The last of these seven sections goes from surah Al-Mulk [surah number 67] to surah Al-Nas [surah number 114]. [26] This final part [last seventh of the Quran] focuses on sources of reflection, people, final scenes they will face on Judgment Day and hellfire and paradise in general [27] and admonition to the Quraysh about their fate in the present and the hereafter if they deny Muhammad, specifically. [28] This surah Al-Fajr forms a pair with the next one Al-Balad . The central theme of both the surahs is to reprimand the leaders of the Quraysh for the rebellious attitude and arrogant behavior they have adopted with regard to Allah and their fellow human beings after being bestowed with favors and riches.

2:14

Al-Ghāshiyah ( Arabic : الغاشية, "The Overwhelming", "The Pall") is the 88th chapter ( surah ) of the Qur'an , with 26 ayat or verses. The surah's topics are Paradise , Hell and the miracle of the creation of all things by God. This surah refers to three broad-ranging topics. First, God describes the difference between good and evil paths that an individual can take and the consequence of each path. God then clarifies their destiny and describes what hell would be like for the non-believers. The second theme mentions the creations God has made, referring to the sky, the earth, and the mountains. Lastly, in verses 21–22, God gives a direct message to Muhammad and tells him, "So remind, [O Muhammad]; you are only a reminder. You are not over them a controller." [1] Summary 1-3 The terrible day of judgment 4-7 Description of the torments of hell 8-16 The joyful state of the Muslims on the judgment-day 17-20 God manifests himself in his works 21-22 Muhammad only to warn, not to rule over, the infidels 23-26 God will himself punish the unbelievers [2] Hadith Al-Dahhak b. Qais asked al-Nu'man b. Bashir : What did the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) recite on Friday after reciting the Surah Al-Jumua (62). He replied: He used to recite, "Had the story of overwhelming event reached you?" (Al-Ghashiyah). [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] Samra ibn Jundab narrated that: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) used to recite in the Friday prayer : "Glorify the name of your most high Lord" (Surah 87) and Has the story of the overwhelming event reached you? (Al-Ghashiyah). [8] [9] [10] [11] Abu Bakr bin An-Nadr said: We were in At-Taff with Anas, and he led them in praying Zuhr . When he had finished, he said: ''I prayed Zuhr with the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and he recited two surahs for us in the two rak'ahs: 'Glorify the Name of your Lord, the Most High' ( Quran 87 ) and 'Has there come to you the narration of the overwhelming?"' (Al-Ghashiyah). [12] It was narrated from Ibn ‘Abbas that: The Prophet (ﷺ) used to recite in the Eid prayers ''Glorify the Name of your Lord, the Most High." (Surah 87) and "Has there come to you the narration of the overwhelming?" (Al-Ghashiyah). [13] [14] [15] [16] It was narrated from al-Nu'man b.

Al-Aʻlā الأعلى, lit. 'The Most High, Glory To Your Lord In The Highest' 1:47

1:47

Al-Aʻlā ( Arabic : الأعلى, lit. 'The Most High, Glory To Your Lord In The Highest') is the eighty-seventh chapter ( surah ) of the Qur'an , with 19 ayat or verses. Al-A'la describes the Islamic view of existence, the Oneness of Allah , and Divine revelation, additionally mentioning rewards and punishments. Mankind often hides things from each other and from themselves as well. The sura reminds its readers that Allah knows the things that are declared and things that lie hidden. The final verse of this Sura affirms that a similar message was also revealed to Abraham and Moses in the scriptures . [1] This sura is part of the series of Al-Musabbihat as it begins with the glorification of Allah. This is a Makkan surah. The first 7 Āyāt (verses) were revealed during the first years of Makkan life. One of the companions of Ali said that he prayed twenty consecutive nights behind him and he did not recite any Surah, except Surah A’la. Surat Al-A'lā is among the most recited suras in the Jummah and Witr prayers. Summary 1-5 God, the Most High, praised for his works 6-9 God promises to help Muhammad to proclaim the Quran 10-11 The God-fearing only shall be admonished 12-15 The wicked shall be punished, but the righteous shall be blessed 16-17 Men choose the present life rather than the life to come 18-19 The books of Abraham and Moses attest the Quran [2] Hadith Ibn ‘Abbas (d.687) narrated: The Prophet recited in Witr: Glorify the Name of your Lord, the Most High ( Al-Ala ). [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] Ibn ‘Abbas reported; when the prophet recited: "Glorify the name of thy Lord, the Most High."( Al-Ala ) He would say: "Glory be to Allah, the most High". [10] Samra ibn Jundab narrated that: The Messenger of Allah used to recite in the Friday prayer : "Glorify the name of your most high Lord" ( Al-Ala ) and Has the story of the overwhelming event reached you? ( Al-Ghashiyah ). [11] [12] [13] [14] It was narrated from Ibn ‘Abbas that the Prophet used to recite in the ‘ Eid prayers "Glorify the Name of your Lord, the Most High." ( Al-Ala ) and “Has there come to you the narration of the overwhelming?” ( Al-Ghashiyah ). [15] [16] [17] [18] It was narrated from al-Nu'man b. Bashir that: The Messenger of Allah used to recite on the two Eid prayers and on Jumu'ah : "Glorify the Name of Your Lord, the Most High" ( Al-Ala ) and "Has there come to you the narration of The Overwhelming?"( Al-Ghashiyah ) Sometimes the two ('Eid and Jumu'ah) occurred on the same day, and he would recite them (these two Surahs). [19] [20] [21] It was narrated that Imran ibn Husain said: "The Prophet prayed Zuhr and a man behind him recited: Glorify the Name of your Lord, the Most High. When he had finished praying, he said: 'Who recited: Glorify the Name of your Lord, the Most High?" ( Al-Ala ) A man said: 'I did.' He said: 'I realized that some of you were disputing with me over it'". [22] [23] Abu Bakr bin An-Nadr said: "We were in At-Taff with Anas, and he led them in praying Zuhr . When he had finished, he said: 'I prayed Zuhr with the Messenger of Allah and he recited two surahs for us in the two rak'ahs: "Glorify the Name of your Lord, the Most High' ( Al-Ala ) and 'Has there come to you the narration of the over-whelming?'" ( Al-Ghashiyah ). [24] It was narrated that Jabir said: "Muadh stood up and prayed Isha ', and made it lengthy. The Prophet said: 'Do you want to cause hardship to the people, O Mu'adh; do you want to cause hardship to the people O Mu'adh? Why didn't you recite Glorify the Name of your Lord Most High ( Al-Ala ) or Ad-Dhuha or; When the heaven is cleft asunder ?" [25] [26] Narrated Uqbah ibn Amir : “When the following was revealed: ‘So glorify the Name of your Lord, the Most Great’,[69:52] the Messenger of Allah said to us: ‘Say this in your Ruku ’.’ And when the following was revealed: ‘Glorify the Name of your Lord, the Most High.’[87:1] the Messenger of Allah said to us: ‘Say this in your prostrations.’” [27]…

Al-Burooj البروج "The Great Star" 3:18

for 1 year siden3:18

3:18

Al-Burooj [1] ( Arabic : البروج, romanized : al-burūj , "The Great Star") is the eighty-fifth chapter ( surah ) of the Quran , with 22 ayat or verses. [2] The word "Al-Burooj" in the first verse is usually translated as 'stars', or more specifically, 'great stars'. [3] The word Al-Burooj is the plural of Burj, which means fort or tower; something that can be seen from a distance. Summary 1-7 Cursed were the persecutors of the believers burned with fire 8-9 The believers persecuted for their faith in God 10-12 For the infidels is hell-fire, but for believers Paradise 13-16 God is Creator and Sovereign Ruler of the universe 17-20 Pharaoh and Thamud examples to warn those who reject the Quran 21 The glorious Quran is kept in the Preserved Table [4] The surah opens with an oath by a heaven full of stars: by the sky containing great stars. 4-8 People of the Ditch Main article: People of the Ditch Interpreters give several different versions of the story to be referred to in verses 4–8: persecution of Christians by Dhu Nuwas in Yemen, persecutions by Nebuchadnezzar , and people of the trench. It has been documented that Dun Nuwas burned 20,000 Christians alive in a burning trench because they refused to convert to Judaism. [5] 22 The 'preserved tablet' Quranic exegetes produced different interpretations of the term 'preserved tablet' in verse 22. In this surah the relationship of Quran to the 'Preserved Tablet' is correlated with the relation of the stars 'Al-Buruj' to the heavens 'Al-Sama'. Some of the Mu'tazila argued that revelations were created initially in the preserved tablet. The 'Preserved Tablet' seems to be close to another term, 'Mother of all books' ( umm al-kitab ), mentioned in Ar-Ra'd 13:39 and Az-Zukhruf 43:4. [6] Theme and subject matter Its theme is to warn the disbelievers of the evil consequences of the persecution and tyranny that they were perpetrating on the converts to Islam, and to console the believers, so as to say: "If you remain firm and steadfast against tyranny and coercion, you will be rewarded richly for it, and Allah will certainly avenge Himself on your persecutors on your behalf." In this connection, the story of the People of the Ditch ( ashab al-ukhdud ) had been related, who were a group of people who had burnt believers to death by casting them into pits full of fire. By means of this story the believers and the disbelievers have been taught a few lessons. Firstly, that just as the People of the Ditch became worthy of Allah's curse and punishment due to their oppression and tyranny, the chiefs of Makkah are also becoming worthy of it. Secondly, that just as the believers at that time had willingly accepted to sacrifice their lives by being burnt to death in the pits of fire instead of turning away from the faith, so also the believers now should endure every persecution but should never give up their faith. Thirdly, that God's acknowledging Whom displeases the disbelievers and is urged on by the believers, is Dominant and Master of the Kingdom of the earth and heavens; He is self-praiseworthy and is watching what the two groups are striving for. Therefore, it is certain that the disbelievers will be punished in Hell for their oppression, tyranny, and cruelties, unless they have asked for sincere repentance. Likewise, it is also certain that those who believe and do good deeds will go to Paradise, and this indeed is the supreme success. Then the disbelievers have been warned, so as to say: "God's grip is very severe. If you are proud of the strength of your leaders, then you should know that the leaders in the time of the Pharaoh and Thamud were even stronger and more numerous. Therefore, you should learn a lesson from the fate they met. God's power has so encompassed you that you cannot escape His encirclement, and the Qur'an that you are bent upon belying, is unchangeable: it is inscribed in the Preserved Tablet, which cannot be corrupted in any way."…

Al-Haqqah الحاقة “The Reality” “The Inevitable Truth” 6:45

for 2 years siden6:45

6:45

Al-Ḥāqqah الحاقة is the 69th chapter of the Qur'an with 52 verses. There are several English names under which the surah is known. These include “The Inevitable Hour”, “The Indubitable”, “The Inevitable Truth”, and “The Reality”. These titles are derived from alternate translations of al-Ḥāqqa, the word that appears in the first three ayat of the sura, each alluding to the main theme of the sura – the Day of Judgment. Summary 1-3 The judgment of God will infallibly come 4-10 ʿĀd , Thamud , and Pharaoh destroyed for rejecting their prophets 11-16 As the flood came, so shall the judgment certainly come 17 On the judgment-day God's throne shall be borne by eight mighty angels 18-29 The good and bad shall receive their account-books and be judged according to their deeds 30-37 Infidels shall be bound with chains seventy cubits in length and be cast into hell-fire 38-39 With terrible oaths Muhammad asserts the truth of his prophetic claims [3] 1-3 The day of resurrection The first passage of the surah contains three ayaat. These 3 ayaat portray the day of resurrection and the day of judgement [5] and emphasize that The judgment of God will infallibly come. [6] " Haaqqa " , referring to the Quranic view of the end time and eschatology . " Haaqqa " has been translated to Reality, [7] Inevitable Hour, [8] laying-bare of the truth, [5] etc. According to Ibn Kathir , a traditionalistic exegete, Al-Haaqqa is one of the names of the Day of Judgement, like Al-Qaria , At-Tammah, As-Sakhkhah and others. [9] Rhetorically Al-Haaqqa has 2 similarities with Al-Qaria (101). Firstly the opening of the surah resembles Al-Qaria (101) which opens with the wordings 69:1 الْحَاقَّةُ 69:2 مَا الْحَاقَّةُ 69:3 وَمَا أَدْرَاكَ مَا الْحَاقَّةُ Notice that Al-Qaria opens in exactly same style [10] 101:1 الْقَارِعَةُ 101:2 مَا الْقَارِعَةُ 101:3 وَمَا أَدْرَاكَ مَا الْقَارِعَةُ Secondly, the word Al-Qaria appears as a total of five times in the Quran, of which three occasions are in Al-Qaria (101) while once it appears in Al-Haaqqa as well. [11] Hadith about Al-Haaqqa Salah is one of the prior most practice in Islam, according to hadith, Muhammad used to recite this surah in salah as follows : Muhammed used to recite 2 equal surahs in one Rakat ; [N 3] he would recite (for instance) surahs an-Najm (53) and ar-Rahman (55) in one rak'ah, surahs Al-Qamar (54) and Al-Haaqqa (69) in one rak'ah, surahs at-Tur (52) and adh-Dhariyat (51) in one rak'ah, surahs Al-Waqi'a (56) and Nun (68) in one rak'ah, surahs Al-Maarij (70) and An-Naziat (79) in one rak'ah, surahs al-Mutaffifin (83) and Abasa (80) in one rak'ah, surahs Al-Muddaththir (74) and al-Muzzammil (73) in one rak'ah, surahs al-Insan (76) and Al-Qiyama (75) in one rak'ah, surahs an-Naba' (78) and Al-Mursalat (77) in one rak'ah, and surahs ad-Dukhan (44) and at-Takwir (81) in one rak'ah.

(It is): 'Blessed be He in Whose Hand is the dominion. ( Al-Mulk 67)'" [12] [13] [14] Muhammad said, 'There is a surah in the Quran which is only thirty verses. It defends whoever recites it until it puts him into Jannah ' [15] Anas ibn Malik reported Muhammad as saying, "There is a Surah which will plead for its reciter till it causes him to enter paradise." [16] Muhammad said, ' Surah al Mulk is the protector from the torment of the grave' [17] Jabir said it was the custom of not to go to sleep until he had read Tabarakalladhi Biyadihil Mulk(Al-Mulk) and Alif Laam Meem Tanzeel ( As-Sajda ). [18] He used to recite Surah As-Sajdah and Surah Al-Mulk (in Arabic) before sleeping. [19] Khalid bin Madam said about surat Al Mulk and As-Sajda that these two surahs will fight for their reciter in the grave and will say, 'O Allah! If we belong to Your book, accept our intercession in his favour. In case we do not, get us obliterated. These surahs will spread their wings like birds and will save the person from the torment of the grave.' [22] It was narrated that Abd Allah ibn Mas'ud said: Whoever reads Tabarakalladhi Biyadihil Mulk [i.e. Surah al-Mulk] every night, Allah will protect him from the torment of the grave. At the time of the Messenger of Allah, we used to call it al-mani'ah (that which protects). In the Book of Allah it is a surah which, whoever recites it every night has done very well. [23] [24] Abdullah ibn Masud is reported to have said, 'A man will be approached in his grave from his legs and from his chest and then from his head. And each time this Surah will defend him by saying, 'You cannot do anything to him, he used to recite Surah Mulk'.' Abdullah ibn Masud further states, 'It is called, 'Al-maani'ah'. For it protects from the punishment of the grave .' [25] Ibn Umar said that once that Muhammad recited verse 2 (the One Who created death and life so that He may test you as to which of you is better in deeds) and when he reached the words "better in deeds", he stopped and explained that 'better in deeds' is the person who abstains most from the things Allah has forbidden and is always ready to obey Him." There is a surah (chapter) in the Quran which consists of thirty verses which will keep interceding about a man until he is forgiven. The Surah is Tabarak Allazi Biyadihi al-Mulk i.e. ‘Blessed is He in Whose Hand is the Kingdome’.

"Divorce" الطلاق, aṭ-talāq is the 65th chapter of the Qur'an with 12 verses The main subject is about divorce The surah also defines the time period of mourning ( iddah ) to be three menstruation periods. For pre-menarche girls and for post-menopause women - three months. In case of pregnancy, after the delivery of the child. [4] After addressing the topic of divorce and a number of other resulting family issues [5] in first 7 verses, [6] the surah then strongly urges people to observe God’s regulations and guidance, and reminded the fate of earlier disobedient people that the apostate and disobedient were chastised for their sin [7] The 11th verse describes the required attitude of the true believers that they exhort to faith in messenger and the regarding bounties [8] Translate by Dr. Mustafa Khattab 1. O Prophet! ˹Instruct the believers:˺ When you ˹intend to˺ divorce women, then divorce them with concern for their waiting period,1 and count it accurately. And fear Allah, your Lord. Do not force them out of their homes, nor should they leave—unless they commit a blatant misconduct. These are the limits set by Allah. And whoever transgresses Allah’s limits has truly wronged his own soul. You never know, perhaps Allah will bring about a change ˹of heart˺ later. 2. Then when they have ˹almost˺ reached the end of their waiting period, either retain them honourably or separate from them honourably. And call two of your reliable men to witness ˹either way˺—and ˹let the witnesses˺ bear true testimony for ˹the sake of˺ Allah. This is enjoined on whoever has faith in Allah and the Last Day. And whoever is mindful of Allah, He will make a way out for them, 3. and provide for them from sources they could never imagine. And whoever puts their trust in Allah, then He ˹alone˺ is sufficient for them. Certainly Allah achieves His Will. Allah has already set a destiny for everything. 4. As for your women past the age of menstruation, in case you do not know, their waiting period is three months, and those who have not menstruated as well. As for those who are pregnant, their waiting period ends with delivery.1 And whoever is mindful of Allah, He will make their matters easy for them. 5. This is the commandment of Allah, which He has revealed to you. And whoever is mindful of Allah, He will absolve them of their sins and reward them immensely. 6. House the wives you are divorcing according to your means, wherever you house yourselves, and do not harass them so as to make their lives difficult. If they are pregnant, maintain them until they are delivered of their burdens; if they suckle your infants, pay them for it. Consult together in a good way- if you make difficulties for one another, another woman may suckle the child for the father–– 7. and let the wealthy man spend according to his wealth. But let him whose provision is restricted spend according to what God has given him: God does not burden any soul with more than He has given it- after hardship, God will bring ease. 8. Many a town that insolently opposed the command of its Lord and His messengers We have brought sternly to account: We punished them severely 9. to make them taste the ill effect of their conduct- the result of their conduct was ruin. 10. God has prepared a severe torment for them. So, you who have understanding, you who believe, beware of God. He has sent you the Quran 11. and a messenger- reciting to you God’s revelations that make things clear- to bring those who believe and do righteous deeds from darkness into light. God will admit those who believe in Him and do righteous deeds into Gardens graced with flowing streams, where they will remain for ever––He has made good provision for them. 12. It is God who created seven heavens and a similar [number] of earths. His command descends throughout them. So you should realize that He has power over all things and that His knowledge encompasses everything.…

5:24

At-Taghābun "Loss, Deprivation" is the 64th surah of the Quran The theme of this surah is an invitation to the Faith, obedience (to God) and the teaching of good morals, contrasting with the previous surah, Al-Munafiqun , which was concerned with hypocrisy and the lack of Iman First four verses are addressed to all human-kind, verses 5-10 to those men who do not believe in the invitation of the Qur'an, and verses 11-18 to those who accept and believe in this invitation Verses (english by Abdul Haleem Quran.com ) 1 Everything that is in the heavens and earth glorifies God; all control and all praise belong to Him; He has power over everything. 2 It is He who created you, yet some of you disbelieve and some believe: God sees everything you do. 3 He created the heavens and earth for a true purpose; He formed you and made your forms good: you will all return to Him. 4 He knows what is in the heavens and earth; He knows what you conceal and what you reveal; God knows very well the secrets of every heart. 5 [Disbelievers], have you not heard about those who disbelieved before you? They tasted the evil consequences of their conduct, and a painful torment awaits them. 6 That is because their messengers came to them with clear signs, yet they said, ‘Should we take guidance from mere mortals?’, rejected the message, and turned away. But God had no need for them: He is all sufficient, worthy of all praise. 7 The disbelievers claim they will not be raised from the dead. Say [Prophet], ‘Yes indeed! I swear by my Lord! You will be raised and then you will be informed about everything you have done: an easy matter for God.’ 8 So believe in God, in His Messenger, and in the light We have sent down: God is fully aware of what you do. 9 When He gathers you for the Day of Gathering, the Day of mutual neglect, He will cancel the sins of those who believed in Him and acted righteously: He will admit them into Gardens graced with flowing streams, there to remain for ever- the supreme triumph. 10 But those who disbelieved and rejected Our signs will be the inhabitants of the Fire, there to remain- a miserable destination. 11 Misfortunes can only happen with God’s permission––He will guide the heart of anyone who believes in Him: God knows all things–– 12 so obey God and the Messenger. If you turn away, remember that Our Messenger’s duty is only to make plain his message. 13 God! There is no god but Him, so let the faithful put their trust in Him. 14 Believers, even among your spouses and your children you have some enemies- beware of them- but if you overlook their offences, forgive them, pardon them, then God is all forgiving, all merciful. 15 Your wealth and your children are only a test for you. There is great reward with God: 16 be mindful of God as much as you can; hear and obey; be charitable- it is for your own good. Those who are saved from their own meanness will be the prosperous ones: 17 if you make a generous loan to God He will multiply it for you and forgive you. God is ever thankful and forbearing; 18 He knows the unseen, as well as the seen; He is the Almighty, the Wise. The surah opens with a description of God’s power, wisdom, and knowledge, and takes its name from “the day of dispossession” ( yawm al-taghabun ) mentioned in verse 9 The disbelievers are reminded of the end of those who disbelieved before them in verses 5 and 6 Unbelief will not prevent infidels from rising from the dead and their denial of the Resurrection is strongly refuted in verse 7 Next 3 ayaat then present exhortation to believe in God and his Apostle In the discourse verses 11 to 13 prescribe to humanity that God is sovereign, therefore should be trusted Further in verse 14, the believers are urged to be wary but forgiving of the enemies they may have within their own families and muslims are exhorted to abjure worldly ties and to devote themselves to God in ayaat 14 to 18 and are warned to remain steadfast and to spend in God’s cause in verse 8 and 16…

Al-Munafiqun المنافقون "The Hypocrites" 4:18

for 2 years siden4:18

4:18

The chapter deals with the phenomenon of hypocrisy It criticizes hypocrisy and condemns the hypocrites. It also exhorts the Believers to be sincere in their faith and make charity. [3] According to Muslim theologian, Javed Ahmad Ghamidi , the theme of Qur'an 63 is to inform the Muslims that the Hypocrites are absolute liars. Amin Ahsan Islahi elaborates that: This surah is a supplement to Surah Jum`ah , the previous surah It can be divided into two sections. The first one consists of eight verses, while the last three verses constitute the second section. In the first section, the character of the hypocrites is evaluated and shown that their real ailment is their lust for worldly riches In the second section, Muslims are warned that the love of wealth and children should not make them indifferent to the remembrance of the Almighty If today they do not truly benefit from their wealth by not spending in the way of Allah, they will feel sorry, once their life ends and at that moment their regret will be of no use to them In other words, in the first section the illness of hypocrisy is elaborated upon, while in the second section, Muslims are asked to guard themselves against it Translation Asbāb al-nuzūl (occasions or circumstances of revelation) is a secondary genre of Qur'anic exegesis ( tafsir ) directed at establishing the context in which specific verses of the Qur'an were revealed. Though of some use in reconstructing the Qur'an's historicity, asbāb is by nature an exegetical rather than a historiographical genre, and as such usually associates the verses it explicates with general situations rather than specific events. A hadith recorded by Muhammad al-Bukhari which narrates the occasion of revelation of this surah is as follows Narrated Zayd ibn Arqam : While I was with my uncle, I heard Abd-Allah ibn Ubayy saying, "Do not spend on those who are with Allah's Messenger, that they may disperse and go away (from him). And if we return to Medina, surely, the more honorable will expel therefrom the meaner. "I mentioned that to my uncle who, in turn, mentioned it to the Prophet. The Prophet called me and I told him about that. Then he sent for Abd-Allah ibn Ubayy and his companions, and they swore that they did not say so.The Prophet disbelieved my statement and believed theirs. I was distressed as I have never been before, and I remained in my house. My uncle said to me, "You just wanted the Prophet to consider you a liar and hate you." Then Allah revealed:-- 'When the hypocrites come to you, they say: 'We bear witness that you are indeed the Apostle of Allah" (63.1) So the Prophet sent for me and recited it and said, "Allah has confirmed your statement" [6] Hadith about Al-Munafiqun The first and foremost exegesis / tafsir of the Qur'an is found in a hadith attributed to Muhammad. [7] Although some scholars, including ibn Taymiyyah , claim that Muhammad has commented on the whole of the Qur'an, others including Ghazali cite the limited amount of narratives , thus indicating that he has commented only on a portion of the Qur'an. [8] Ḥadīth (حديث) is literally "speech" or "report", that is a recorded saying or tradition attributed to Muhammad validated by isnad ; with Sirah Rasul Allah these comprise the sunnah and reveal shariah . According to Aishah , [9] [10] the life of Muhammad was practical implementation of Qur'an [11] [12] [13] Therefore, mention in hadith elevates the importance of the pertinent surah from a certain perspective. In the Friday prayer he (Muhammad) is said to have recited Surah Al-Jumua and Surah Al-Munafiqun [14] A hadith attributes Ibn Abi Rafi' as saying: Abu Hurairah led us in the Friday prayer and recited Surah Al-Jumua and "When the hypocrites come to you" (Al-Munafiqun) in the last rak'ah . He said: I met Abu Hurairah when he finished the prayer and said to him: You recited the two surah that Ali ibn Abi Talib used to recite at Kufa . Abu Hurairah said: I heard the Messenger of Allah reciting them on Friday . [15] [16] [17]…

Al-Jumuʿah الجمعة "Friday" 3:33

for 2 years siden3:33

3:33

Al-Jumuʿah is the 62nd chapter of the Quran , with 11 verses The chapter is named al-jumu`ah ("Friday") because it is the day of assembly, when the community abandons trade, transactions, and other diversions in favor of assembling to seek the all-encompassing truth and most beneficent and seek the "bounty of God" exclusively (Verse 9) This is an Al-Musabbihat surah because it begins with the glorification of God. Summary 1-4 A wise, powerful, and holy God sent Muhammad as his apostle to the Arabians 5-8 The Jews rebuked for their opposition to Islam 9-11 Admonition concerning the observance of worship on Friday [2] Hadith about Surah Al-Jumua The first and foremost exegesis / tafsir of the Qur'an is found in hadith of Muhammad. [3] Although some scholars, including ibn Taymiyyah , claim that Muhammad has commented on the whole of the Qur'an, others including Ghazali cite the limited amount of narratives , thus indicating that he has commented only on a portion of the Qur'an. [4] Ḥadīth (حديث) is literally "speech" or "report", that is a recorded saying or tradition of Muhammad validated by isnad ; with Sirah Rasul Allah these comprise the sunnah and reveal shariah . According to Aishah , [5] [6] the life of Muhammad was a practical implementation of Qur'an . [7] [8] [9] Therefore, mention in hadith elevates the importance of the pertinent surah from a certain perspective. In the Friday prayer he (Muhammad) would recite Surah Al-Jumua and Surah Al-Munafiqun (63). [10] [11] Al-Dahhak b. Qais asked al-Nu'man b. Bashir : What did the Messenger of Allah recite on Friday after reciting the Surah Al-Jumua . He replied: He used to recite, "Had the story of overwhelming event reached you?" ( Al-Ghashiyah (88)). [12] [13] [14] [15] [16] Ibn Abi Rafi' said: Abu Hurairah led us in the Friday prayer and recited Surah Al-Jumua and "When the hypocrites come to you" ( Al-Munafiqun 63) in the last rak'ah . He said: I met Abu Hurairah when he finished the prayer and said to him: You recited the two surah that Ali ibn Abi Talib used to recite at Kufa . Abu Hurairah said: I heard the Messenger of Allah reciting them on Friday . [17] [18] [19] Translation by Abdul Haleem ( Quran.com ) Everything in the heavens and earth glorifies God, the Controller, the Holy One, the Almighty, the Wise. It is He who raised a mes-senger, among the people who had no Scripture, to recite His revelations to them, to make them grow spiritually and teach them the Scripture and wisdom––before that they were clearly astray–– to them and others yet to join them. He is the Almighty, the Wise: such is God’s favour that He grants it to whoever He will; God’s favour is immense. Those who have been charged to obey the Torah, but do not do so, are like asses carrying books: how base such people are who disobey God’s revelations! God does not guide people who do wrong. Say [Prophet], ‘You who follow the Jewish faith, if you truly claim that out of all people you alone are friends of God, then you should be hoping for death.’ But because of what they have stored up for themselves with their own hands they would never hope for death––God knows the wrongdoers very well–– so say, ‘The death you run away from will come to meet you and you will be returned to the One who knows the unseen as well as the seen: He will tell you everything you have done.’ Believers! When the call to prayer is made on the day of congregation, hurry towards the reminder of God and leave off your trading––that is better for you, if only you knew–– then when the prayer has ended, disperse in the land and seek out God’s bounty. Remember God often so that you may prosper. Yet they scatter towards trade or entertainment whenever they observe it, and leave you [Prophet] standing there. Say, ‘God’s gift is better than any entertainment or trade: God is the best provider.’…

As-Saff الصف Battle Array "The Ranks" 4:52

for 2 years siden4:52

4:52

Battle Array الصف, aṣ-Ṣaff , aka "The Ranks" is the 61st chapter of the Quran , with 14 verses. This sura is an Al-Musabbihat sura because it begins with the glorification of Allah. 1 All things in the universe praise God 2-4 Muslims exhorted to be faithful and to fight for Islam 5 This exhortation enforced by the example of Moses 6 Jesus foretells a Messenger named Ahmad 7-8 Jesus was rejected as a sorcerer notwithstanding his miracles 9 Islam to be exalted above every other religion 10-11 Muslims exhorted to seek forgiveness by striving in the cause of Allah 12-13 The rewards of those who fight for the faith 14 Muslims exhorted to follow the example of the apostles of Jesus [2] The believers are instructed to strive in Allāh's cause in solid battle formations (verse 4), hence the name of this Medinian sûrah. The disciples of Jesus, who stood up for Allāh, are cited as an example for the believers to emulate. The believers are reassured that the truth will prevail despite the disbelievers' unrelenting plots against it. Those who stand up for Allāh are promised great rewards in both worlds. The next sûrah provides more instructions to the believers. At the outset the believers have been warned to the effect; "Allāh indeed hates those people who say one thing and do another, and He indeed loves those who fight in the cause of the Truth, standing like a solid structure, against the enemies of Allāh."' In vv. 5-7 the people of the Holy Prophet's community have been warned that their attitude towards their Messenger and their Religion should not be like the attitude that the Israelites had adopted towards the Prophets Moses and Jesus (peace be upon them). In spite of acknowledging the Prophet Moses as a Messenger of God they continued to malign him as long as he lived, and in spite of witnessing clear signs from the Prophet Jesus they denied him without any hesitation. Consequently, the Israelites became perverse, incapable of benefiting from divine guidance. This is certainly not an enviable state which another nation should imitate Then, in vv. 8-9 a proclamation has been made with the challenge: "The Jews and the Christians, and the hypocrites, who are conspiring with them, may try however hard they may to extinguish this Light of Allāh, it will shine forth and spread in the world in all its fullness, and the Religion brought by the true Messenger of Allāh shall prevail over every other religion however hateful it may be to the pagans and polytheists In vv. 10-13, the believers have been told that the way to success both here and in the Hereafter is only one: that they should believe in Allāh and His Messenger sincerely and should exert their utmost in Allāh's Way with their selves and their wealth. As a reward for this they will earn immunity from Allāh's punishment, forgiveness of their sins and the eternal Paradise in the Hereafter, and will be blessed with Allāh's good pleasure, succour and victory in the world In conclusion, the believers have been exhorted to the effect that just as the disciples of the Prophet Jesus had helped him in the cause of Allāh, so should they also become "helpers of Allāh", so that they too are blessed with the same kind of good pleasure and approval of Allāh as had been the believers before them against the disbelievers Name The Surah derives its name from the sentence yuqatiluna fi sabil-i-hi saff-an of verse 4; thereby implying that it is a Surah in which the word saff occurred. Theme and Subject Matter Its theme is to exhort the Muslims to adopt sincerity in Faith and to struggle with their lives in the cause of Allāh. It is addressed to the Muslims with weak faith as well as those who had entered Islam with a false profession of the Faith and also those who were sincere in their profession. Some verses are addressed to the first two groups, some only to the hypocrites, and some only to the sincere Muslims. The style itself shows where one particular group has been addressed and where the other.…

Al-Mumtaḥanah الممتحنة "the Surah which examines" 7:31

for 2 years siden7:31

7:31

Al-Mumtaḥanah الممتحنة, translated "She That Is To Be Examined", "Examining Her") is the 60th chapter of the Quran , a Medinan sura with 13 verses The first verse warns Muslims not to make alliance with the enemies of God. [1] Verses 4–6 provide Abraham as a model for this, as he distanced himself from the pagans of his own tribe, including his own father. [1] [2] Verses 7 to 9 declare the possibility that Muslims and their erstwhile enemy might have better relations ("It may be that God will forge affection between you and those of them with whom you are in enmity") [3] if the former enemy stops fighting the Muslims. [1] These verses provide basis for the relations of Muslims and non-Muslims according to the Quran: the basic relation is peace unless the Muslims are attacked, or when war is justified to stop injustice or protect the religion. [4] The next following verses (10–12) address some matters of Islamic law. [1] They declare marriages between Muslims and polytheists to be no longer valid, [1] and instruct Muslims on how to resolve the question of mahr when dissolving such marriages. [5] The status of inter-religious marriages was very relevant at the time of the revelation of these verses, a time when multiple women from Mecca converted to Islam while their husbands did not, or vice versa. [1] Theme and Topics This Surah has three parts; The first part consists of vv. 1-9 , and the concluding verse 13 also relates to it. In this strong exception has been taken to the act of Hadrat Hatib bin Abi Balta'a in that he had tried to inform the enemy of a very important war secret of the Holy Prophet (upon whom be Allah's peace) only for the sake of safe guarding his family. This would have caused great bloodshed at the conquest of Makkah had it not been made ineffective in time. It would have cost the Muslims many precious lives; many of the Quraish would have been killed, who were to render great services to Islam afterward; the gains which were to accrue from conquering Makkah peacefully would have been lost, and all these serious losses would have resulted only because one of the Muslims had wanted to safeguard his family from the dangers of war. Administering a severe warning at this blunder Allah has taught the believers the lesson that no believer should, under any circumstances and for any motive, have relations of love and friendship with the disbelievers, who are actively hostile to Islam, and a believer should refrain from everything which might be helpful to them in the conflict between Islam and disbelief. However, there is no harm in dealing kindly and justly with those disbelievers, who may not be practically engaged in hostile activities against Islam and persecution of the Muslims. The second part consists of vv. 10-11 . In this a social problem has been settled, which was agitating the minds at that time. There were many Muslim women in Makkah, whose husbands were pagans, but they were emigrating and reaching Madinah somehow. Likewise, there were many Muslim men in Madinah, whose wives were pagans and had been left behind in Makkah. The question arose whether the marriage bond between them continued to be valid or not. Allah settled this problem for ever, saying that the pagan husband is not lawful for the Muslim women, nor the pagan wife lawful for the Muslim husband. This decision leads to very important legal consequences, which we shall explain in our notes below. The third section consists of verse 12 , in which the Holy Prophet (upon whom be Allah's peace) has been instructed to ask the women who accept Islam to pledge that they would refrain from the major evils that were prevalent among the womenfolk of the pre-Islamic Arab society, and to promise that they would henceforth follow the ways of goodness which the Messenger of Allah may enjoin…

Al-Hashr الحشر "The Exile" 10:26

for 2 years siden10:26

10:26

Al-Hashr الحشر, "The Exile" is the 59th chapter of the Quran and has 24 verses The chapter is named al-hashr because the word hashr, meaning 'exile' or 'banishment', appears in verse 2, describing the expulsion of Jewish Banu Nadir tribe from their settlements. The surah features 15 attributes of God in the last three verses 1 Everything in the universe praiseth God 2-5 Passage relating to the expulsion of the Baní Nadhír 6-7 Ruling of Muhammad concerning spoils 8-10 Special ruling for the benefit of the Muhájirín 11-17 Hypocrites in Madína reproved for treachery 18-20 Muslims exhorted to fear God 21 Had the Quran descended on a mountain, it would have split asunder 22-24 God hath excellent names , and He only to be worshipped Surah Al-Hashr opens with God proclaiming: 1 Whatsoever is in the heavens and whatsoever is on the earth glorifies God. And He is the Almighty, the All-Wise. In Tafsir ibn kathir , Al-Hafiz ibn Kathir explained the significance of the Ayah. He wrote: “Everything glorifies God in its own way. God states that everything that exists in the heavens and on the earth praises, glorifies, reveres and prays to Him and affirms His Oneness." Further, God said in another Ayah: The seven heavens and the earth and all that is therein, glorify Him and there is not a thing but glorifies His praise. But you understand not their glorification ( Q17:44 ) [2] Ali , the cousin of Muhammad, narrates about the following verse: 7 Whatever God grants to His Messenger (out of the property) of the people of the towns, belongs to God, the Messenger, the kinsfolk, the orphans, the destitute . . . saying that "We are the Ahl al-Bayt (kinsfolk) and this applies to such persons from us exclusively. It is the way God has honored His Holy Prophet and has honored us instead of providing us the unlawful things in the hands of people" Ayahs 21-24 The last four Ayahs and commentary by ibn Kathir read: 21 Had We sent down this Qur’an on a mountain, you would surely have seen it humbling itself and rent asunder by the fear of God. Such are the parables which We put forward to mankind that they may reflect. Commenting on Ayah 21, Al-Hafiz Ibn Kathir wrote: “God the Exalted emphasizes the greatness of the Qur’an, its high status and of being worthy of making hearts humble and rent asunder upon hearing it, because of the true promises and sure threats that it contains." 22 He is God, beside Whom La ilaha illa Huwa, the All-Knower of the unseen and the seen. He is the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Commenting on Ayah 22, Al-Hafiz Ibn Kathir wrote: “God states that He Alone is worthy of worship, there is no Lord or God for the existence, except Him. All that is being worshiped instead of God are false deities. God is the All-Knower in the unseen and the seen, He knows all that pertains to the creations that we see, and those we cannot see. Nothing in heaven or on earth ever escapes His knowledge, no matter how great or insignificant, big or small, including ants in darkness.“God’s statement, ‘He is the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful’ . . . asserts that God is the Owner of the wide encompassing mercy that entails all of His creation He is Ar-Rahman and Ar-Rahim of this life and of the Hereafter” 23 He is God, beside Whom lā ilaha illā-llah , Al-Malik, Al-Quddus, As-Salam, Al-Mu’min, Al-Muhaymin, Al-Aziz, Al-Jabbar, Al-Mutakabbir. Glory be to God! Al-Hafiz Ibn Kathir then set out the meaning of God's Names that are listed in Ayah 23. He wrote that Al Malik means "The Owner and King of all things, Who has full power over them without resistance or hindrance". He explained that Al-Quddus, means "‘The Pure’, according to Wahb bin Munabbih, while Mujahid and Qatadah said that Al-Quddus means ‘The Blessed’. " As-Salam, means "Free from any defects or shortcomings that lessen or decrease His perfect attributes and actions" while Al-Mu’min means one "Who has granted safety to His servants by promising that He will never be unjust to them.…

Al-Mujādilah المجادلة "She Who Disputes, The Pleading Woman" 10:13

10:13

Al-Mujādilah ( المجادلة, She who disputed [1] or "She Who Disputes, The Pleading Woman") is the 58th chapter of the Qur'an with 22 verses Revealed in Medina, the chapter first addresses the legality of pre-Islamic method of divorce called zihar . The name "she who disputes" refers to the woman who petitioned Muhammad about the unjustness of this method, and the chapter's first verses outlaw it and prescribe how to deal with past cases of zihar. The chapter also discusses public assemblies and prescribes manners associated with it. The chapter ends by contrasting what it calls "the confederates of God" and "the confederates of Satan", and promising rewards for the former Summary 1-5 An ancient Arab custom of divorce abrogated 6-7 Those who oppose Muhammad threatened 8-11 Clandestine discourse against Muhammad censured and forbidden 12-14 The prophet of God to be approached with due reverence and honour 15-21 Muslims reproached for keeping company with Jews and infidels 22 Nearest relatives, if unbelievers, to be avoided as enemies of Islam The first six verses addresses the legal status of zihar , as petitioned by Khawla . The verses effectively declare that zihar is an unlawful method of divorce. The verses also address past cases of zihar, allowing them to be reversed by freeing a slave. [3] After the revelation, Muhammad clarified that if freeing a slave was not possible, someone who committed zihar could also perform fasting ( sawm ) for two months, or feed sixty poor people. [4] The chapter then portrays this direct involvement by God in early Muslim community as a sign of his omnipresence ("He is with you wheresoever you are and God sees whatsoever you do"). [5] The next section, verses 7 to 13, discusses political debates, which are framed as between "the confederates of God" and "the confederates of Satan". They also contain teachings for Muslims about how to conduct public assemblies (al-majalis). While in principle all individuals are free to participate in such assemblies, the verses maintain the importance of contributions from experts ("those who are possessed of knowledge"). This section also warns against conspiratorial secret meetings that are done for "iniquity, hostility and disobedience to the messenger of God". [6] The last section, from 14 to 21, is the longest section (ruku') of the chapter. The section defines "the confederates of God" (hizb Allah) as those "who believe in God and the Last Day" and "the confederates of Satan" (hizb al-shaitan) as those who "forgets the remembrance of God", including those who openly oppose God and Muhammad as well as hypocrites. [7] It closes by discussing the rewards that God will give—according to the Quran—to his confederates According to the Islamic tradition, the chapter was revealed during the Medinan period of Muhammad's prophethood, therefore, a Medinan sura . A minority opinion says that only the first ten verses were from the Medinan period, and the rest were from the Meccan period . Another minority opinion says that verse 9 was from the Meccan period, and the rest Medinan. Name The chapter is named Al-Mujadila, "she who disputes", in reference to Khawla bint Tha'laba whose petition was the occasion of revelation for some of the chapter's verses. [5] It is alternatively called Al-Mujadalah, a related word meaning "the dialogue", referring to the use of discourse and the dialectical method that is an important theme in the chapter…

Al-Ḥadīd (English: Iron, Arabic الحديد) is the 57th chapter of the Quran with 29 verses The chapter takes its name from that word which appears in the 25th verse This is an Al-Musabbihat surah because it begins with the glorification of Allah. Short summary 1-6 God ( Allah ) is omniscient and most powerful. 7-11 Muslims exhorted to give alms and help the Prophet's mission 12-14 The wise and the foolish in the judgment-day 15-17 True believers admonished to submit humbly to God 18 God will reward the faithful but will punish the wicked 19-20 The present life a vain show 21 Men exhorted to seek the life to come 22-23 All things recorded in God's book of decrees 24 God hateth proud and covetous persons (therefore the defeat at Ohod) 25 Apostles sent to former nations 26-27 Noah, Abraham, the prophets, and Jesus, with the Gospel, sent 28-29 Christians exhorted to become Muslims [4] Exegesis[ edit ] In his tafsir ( exegesis ), Ma’ariful-Qur’an , Muhammad Shafi Deobandi wrote: “It is recorded in Abu Dawud , Tirmidhi and Nasa’i that Sayyidna ‘Irbad Ibn Sariyah (may Allah be pleased with him) said that the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) used to recite Al-Musabbihat before he went to sleep and said: ‘In them there is a verse that is more meritorious than a thousand verses’. “The collective name of the series Al-Musabbihat refers to the following five Surahs: (1) Al-Hadid; (2) Al-Hashr ; (3) As-Saff ; (4) Al-Jumu’ah ; and (5) At-Taghabun . “Having cited this Hadith, Ibn Kathir says that the best verse referred to in Surah Al-Hadid is verse (3). (He is the First and the Last, and the Manifest and the Hidden, and He is All-knowing about everything . . . 57:3). “Among the five Surahs, the first three namely Al-Hadid, Al-Hashr and As-Saff commence with the past perfect tense ‘sabbaha’ (purity has been proclaimed) whilst the last two, namely Al-Jumu’ah and At-Taghabun commence with the imperfect tense ‘yusabbihu’ (purity is proclaimed). This implies that the purity of Allah should be declared at all times, the past, the present and the future. [Mazhari]” [5] In Kitab al-Kafi , Imam Musa al-Kadhim was asked for the interpretation of 57:11 Who is it that would loan Allah a goodly loan so He will multiply it for him and he will have a noble reward?, to which he replied "this was revealed about payment to the Imams. One dirham paid to the Imam is greater in weight than the mountain of Uhud and the reward is greater than two million dirhams paid for other charities." Another narration states it is the "good" towards the Imam during a government of mischief. [6] بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ All that is in the heavens and the earth glorify God. He is Majestic and All-wise. (1) To Him belongs the Kingdom of the heavens and the earth. He gives life and causes things to die. He has power over all things. (2) He is the First, the Last, the Manifest, and the Unseen and He knows all things. (3) It is He who created the heavens and the earth in six days and then established His Dominion over the Throne. He knows whatever enters into the earth, what comes out of it, what descends from the sky, and what ascends to it. He is with you wherever you may be and He is Well Aware of what you do. (4) To Him belong the heavens and the earth and to Him all things return. (5) He causes night to enter into day and day into night. He knows best what all hearts contain. (6) Have faith in God and His Messenger and spend for His cause out of what is entrusted to you. Those who believe and spend for the cause of God will have a great reward. (7) If you are true indeed to this covenant, why do you not believe in God, when His Messenger invites you to believe in your Lord with whom you have made a solemn covenant? (8) It is He who sends illustrious revelations to His servant to take you out of darkness to light. God is Compassionate and All-merciful to you. (9)…

Al-Waqi'a الواقعة 10:39

for 2 years siden10:39

10:39

Al-Waqi'a الواقعة; "The Inevitable" or "The Event") is the 56 chapter of the Quran. Muslims believe it was revealed in Mecca (see Meccan surah ), specifically around 7 years before the (622), the migration of Muhammad to Medina The total number of verses in this surah is 96. It mainly discusses the afterlife according to Islam, and the different fates people will face in it The afterlife ( akhirah ) is the main topic discussed in the chapter. Picking up from the preceding chapter, Ar-Rahman , which discusses the rewards of Paradise ( jannah ), this chapter also mentions them and then contrasts them with the punishment of hell . The chapter also distinguishes the three classes of people in the afterlife, "the foremost", "the companions of the right" and "the companions of the left": the first two groups will enter paradise while the companions of the left will go to hell. [3] Here, "the right" is associated with goodness, the righteous will be seated to the right of God's throne and receive their records of deeds in their right hand. [5] The "foremost" refers to a special group of people who will have an even better fate than the companions of the right in the afterlife. Quranic commentators differ on understanding who the foremost is. They variously identify the foremost with the prophets, the saints, the truthful, the martyrs, the first to accept Islam, and others. [6] Ayat (verses) 1-2 The coming of the judgment-day inevitable 3-7 Its terrors described 8-11 Its coming shall separate men into three classes 12-39 Joys of the Muslim heaven described 40-56 The punishment of the wicked in hell depicted 57-73 Arguments for the resurrection of the dead drawn from God’s work in creation and providence 74-81 Oath by the stars that the Qurán is divinely-inspired 82-96 Men should believe in God since they cannot save the dying from death [7] Theme and Subject Matter Then, in vv. 57-74 arguments have been given, one after the other, to prove the truth of the two basic doctrines of Islam, which the disbelievers were refusing to accept, viz. the doctrines of Tauhid and the Hereafter. In these arguments, apart from every thing else that exists in the earth and heavens, man's attention has been drawn to his own body and to the food that he eats and to the water that he drinks and to the fire on which he cooks his food, and he has been invited to ponder the question : What right do you have to behave independently of, or serve any other than, the God Whose creative power has brought you into being, and Whose provisions sustain you And how can you entertain the idea that after having once brought you into existence He has become so helpless and powerless that He cannot recreate you once again even if he wills to? Then, in vv. 75-82 their suspicions in respect of the Qur'an have been refuted and they have been made to realize how fortunate they are that instead of deriving any benefit from the great blessing that the Qur'an is, they are treating it with scant attention and have set only this share of theirs in it that they deny it. If one seriously considers this matchless argument that has been presented in two brief sentences about the truth of the Qur'an, one will find in it the same kind of firm and stable system as exists among the stars and planets of the Universe, and the same is the proof of the fact that its Author is the same Being Who has created the Universe. Then the disbelievers have been told that this Book is inscribed in that Writ of Destiny which is beyond the reach of the creatures, as if to say "You think it is brought down by the devils to Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), whereas none but the pure angels has any access to the means by which it reaches Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) from the well guarded Tablet."…

Ar-Rahman الرحمان 11:19

Ar-Rahman الرحمان meaning: The Merciful is the 55th Chapter of the Qur'an, with 78 verses The title of the surah, Ar-Rahman, appears in verse 1 and means "The Most Beneficent". The divine appellation "ar-Rahman" also appears in the opening formula which precedes every surah except Sura 9 ("In the Name of God, the Lord of Mercy, the Giver of Mercy"). English translations of the surah's title include "The Most Gracious", [3] "The All Merciful", [4] "The Lord of Mercy", [5] "The Beneficent", and "The Mercy-Giving". In the fourth century CE south Arabian pagan inscriptions started to be replaced by monotheistic expressions, using the term rahmān . [6] According to the traditional Egyptian chronology, Ar-Rahman was the 97th surah revealed 1-4 God taught the Quran to the human 5-16 God the creator of all things 17-25 God controlled the seas and all that is therein 26-30 God ever liveth, though all else decay and die 31-40 God will certainly judge both men and jinn 41-45 God will consign the wicked to hell-fire 46-78 The joys of Paradise described [14] Ar-Rahman is composed entirely in saj’ , the rhymed, accent-based prose characteristic of early Arabic poetry. [15] The most notable structural feature of Ar-Rahman is the refrain "Which, then, of your Lord’s blessings do you both deny?" [7] (or, in Arberry ’s rendering, "O which of your Lord's bounties will you and you deny?" [16] ), which is repeated 31 times in the 78 verses. Chapter 55 (Surah Rahman) is composed of 26 couplets , 4 tercets , and an introductory stanza of 13 verses all ending with this refrain. The final couplet is followed by a blessing of God's name. [17] Thematically, Ar-Rahman can be divided into roughly three units. [17] Verses 1-30 expound upon natural displays of Allah's creative power and mercy in showering those who inhabit the earth with blessings. Verses 31-45 describe the final judgment and the terrible punishment that will be inflicted upon sinners. Verses 46–78, by contrast, detail the delights that await the pious in paradise. Q55:70-77 Houri[ edit ]Main article: Houri See also: Al-Waqi'a § Verse 56:22 55:70-77 Therein (Gardens) will be Khayrat Hisan (good); Then which of the blessings of your Lord will you both deny! Houri (beautiful, fair females) guarded in pavilions; Then which of the blessings of your Lord will you both deny! Whom never deflowered a human before nor Jinn . Then which of the blessings of your Lord will you both deny! Reclining on green Rafraf (cushions) and rich beautiful `Abqariy. (rich carpets). Then which of the blessings of your Lord will you both deny! [1] : 55:70–77 [18] Muhammad Asad asserts that the "noun hur - rendered as 'companions pure' - is a plural of both ahwar (masculine) and hawra' (female), either of which describes a person distinguished by hawar', which latter term primarily denotes 'intense whiteness of the eyeballs and lustrous black of the iris'. Asad as well as Yusuf Ali and Marmaduke Pickthall translate this verse as: [19] [20] [21] In these [gardens] will be [all] things most excellent and beautiful. Which, then, of your Sustainer's powers can you disavow? [There the blest will live with their] companions pure and modest, in pavillions [splendid] -which, then, of your Sustainer's powers can you disavow? -[companions] whom neither man nor invisible being will have touched ere then. Which, then, of your Sustainer's powers can you disavow?[In such a paradise will they dwell,] reclining upon meadows green and carpets rich in beauty. Which, then, of your Sustainer's powers can you disavow? Hallowed be thy Sustainer's name, full of majesty and glory! Hadith[ edit ] Owing to the sura’s poetic beauty, it is often regarded as the 'beauty of the Quran', [23] in accordance with a hadith: Abdullah ibn Mas'ud reported that Muhammad said, "Everything has an adornment, and the adornment of the Qur'an is Surah Ar-Rahman" [24] [25]…
