Introduction of “The Sun” (L-3464)

Chapter “SHAMS” – (The Sun) - 91

With regard to order, this is Ninety-First Chapter of Holy Qur’an. It was revealed in Makkah along with the first Chapter. In the previous Chapter, the principles of citizen life were caused the mankind to understand. In this Chapter, way of self-correction is being explained, because no one must be careless from arranging own life. It has been described in this Chapter: The management of the world has been established on it that opposite things of one another have been produced in it. Hot light of the sun and cold light of the moon, brightness of the day and darkness of the night, the sky at height and the earth beneath the feet, world’s heat and coolness, brightness and darkness, sample of heights and depths exist into the mankind himself. Capability of righteous and wrong has been kept into himself. If he will incline toward good works, will be successful in the life, and if he will turn toward the wicked deeds; will be destroyed and ruined.

Behold the circumstances of the folk of Thamud: They turned toward evil deeds. One unlucky man from them hamstrung the she-camel, which was sent by Allaah Almighty. So He destroyed the entire folk, because He has Divine Power and He does not fear the consequences of His works. It has been described in this Chapter also: As Allaah Almighty has made sun, moon, day, night and the earth for apparent management of the universe, like this He made arrangement of mankind’s guidance also. Body of the mankind has relationship with apparent world. So he will reap advantage from such things which have been created for the management of the apparent world, as sun and moon etc. but one more thing exists into him which is called “soul or spirit”. Being involved in apparent worldly things is base of destruction for him. Therefore, a separate arrangement has been made for his guidance. Like the sun of the world, there is another internal sun, that is, the Messenger of Allaah Almighty (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him). After him, there are his companions (May Allaah be pleased with them) and the scholars of the religion Islam, who are like the moon. As the moon takes light from the sun and spreads it everywhere, like this companions (May Allaah be pleased with them) and the scholars of the religion get light of guidance from the Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) and spread it in the world. Like this, there has been running internally a spiritual system too like the apparent system, by which the mankind himself can know his goodness; separate from the badness. Accordingly the mankind has been empowered to choose for himself goodness or is entangled in the badness. So we see a group of human beings separate from the other. But bear it in mind! The consequence of that person would be worse who chose the wicked deeds intentionally or carelessly, as the people of the folk of Thamud suffered.

Lesson from Chapter “BALAD” – (The City) - 90

 

Lesson from “The City” (L-3463)

Chapter “BALAD” – (The City) - 90

If someone desires to know that what the responsibilities of a citizen are, he should recite this Chapter with consideration and use his sense properly, then he will come to know thoroughly. Muhammad, the last Messenger of Allaah Almighty (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) is a citizen of Makkah Township. The people of Makkah have gripped up their loins to misbehave with him so much that after hearing their circumstances, the hairs stand on their end.

In this Chapter, it has been described to the mankind: Making Townships and living into them is natural requirement of the mankind, because human beings marry and the children begin to be born, and then the population increases naturally. First principle of living altogether mutually with one another is that every mankind must understand that they have not been produced for remaining unemployed in the economic field of life. Everyone should try and work hard so much as one can for acquiring necessities of life for himself and for the members of his family. Accordingly, mental and physical strengths of entire people are not equal, so result of everyone’s efforts will be different. Brains of some people think fast, some are those whose hands and feet work quickly, and some of them will become rich by a little effort, whereas some people will be those who will work hard but earn less than enough.

Anyhow every individual should think, whether he is rich or poor, that he also is under the Control of Such Who has created this entire universe. The rich does not have power to spend his wealth according to own will and enjoy his life, cause others to long for food and eat himself bellyful, spend in marriages unnecessarily and cause to construct high buildings as he desires. Remember! The Lord of the Worlds, Allaah Almighty has been observing everyone’s every deed. Does the mankind not know his Creator? He is Who decorated eyes, tongue and lips on his face, bestowed sense to him for recognising the Right and the Wrong.

O mankind, listen the way of controlling your desires and spending your wealth. The person who has become slave of someone else or is entangled in any misfortune, you must spend your wealth for deliverance of the slave and removing his affliction, provide food to orphans and poor people in the times of famine and help them in difficulties, believe in Allaah Almighty and teach good manners to the people, and that they should not be confused but be patient in troubles and support one another mutually with kindness. Those who abode by these principles, they really are lucky and it will be better for them in both worlds. But those who consider that verses of Holy Qur’an are lies; they in fact are unlucky and villainous. Even they will know in this world too that they were entirely at wrong. Then after death, when they will be brought back to life again, they will be thrown into the flames of the Fire as a punishment. The Fire will be all around of them in the Hell, doors and windows of which will be closed.

They did not regret where they had to regret

 

They did not regret where they had to regret (L-3462)

فَلَا ٱقْتَحَمَ ٱلْعَقَبَةَ 11  وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا ٱلْعَقَبَةُ 12  فَكُّ رَقَبَةٍ 13  أَوْ إِطْعَٰمٌ فِى يَوْمٍ ذِى مَسْغَبَةٍ 14  يَتِيمًا ذَا مَقْرَبَةٍ 15  أَوْ مِسْكِينًا ذَا مَتْرَبَةٍ 16  ثُمَّ كَانَ مِنَ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَتَوَاصَوْا۟ بِٱلصَّبْرِ وَتَوَاصَوْا۟ بِٱلْمَرْحَمَةِ 17  أُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ أَصْحَٰبُ ٱلْمَيْمَنَةِ 18  وَٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ بِـَٔايَٰتِنَا هُمْ أَصْحَٰبُ ٱلْمَشْـَٔمَةِ 19  عَلَيْهِمْ نَارٌ مُّؤْصَدَةٌۢ 20

11.  Falaq-tahamal-'aqabah.  12.  Wa  maaa  ‘adraaka  mal-'aqabah.  13.  Fakku  raqabah.  14.  ‘Aw  it-'aamun-  fii  yawmin-  zii  masgabah.  15.  Yatiiman  zaa  maqrabah.  16.  ‘Aw  miskiinan  zaa  matrabah.  17.  Summa  kaana  minal-laziina  ‘aamanuu  wa  tawaasaw  bis-Sabri  wa  tawaasaw  bil-Marhamah.  18.  ‘Ulaaa-'ika  ‘As-haabul-Maymanah.  19.  Wallaziina  kafaruu  bi-‘AayaatiNaa  hum  ‘As-haabul-Mash-'amah.  20.  ‘Alayhim  Naarum-mu'-sadah. (Section 1/15)

11. But he has not attempted the Ascent -  12. Ah, what will convey unto you what the Ascent is! -  13. (It is) to free a slave,  14. And to feed in the day of hunger.  15. An orphan near of kin,  16. Or some poor wretch in misery,  17. And to be of those who believe and exhort one another to perseverance and exhort one another to pity.  18. Their place will be on the right hand.  19. But those who disbelieve Our revelations, their place will be on the left hand.  20. Fire will be an awning over them.

Collective life of mankind desires that every individual should keep his wishes off and spend for others from that which he possesses. Since that is a difficult work, so you may consider it as you have been climbing a mountain. The mankind must cause the slaves and prisoners to release from the seizure of others, feed his orphan relatives and very poor people when the grains are expensive and people are dying with hunger. Along with it, he should believe in Allaah Almighty, instruct the people to tolerate and advise for mutual compassion. Such person will be very lucky who will choose these things.

On the other side, those who will deny the Revelations of Allaah Almighty will be very unlucky. They will dwell in the world as they have been living and will arrive at the death’s door. But after death, they will be thrown into the Hell and closed in the Fire.

‘A-‘uu-zu  Billaahi minash-Shay-taanir- Rajiim.

 (I seek refuge in Allaah from Satan the outcast)
Bis-Millaahir-Rah-maanir-Rahiim.
(In the name of Allaah, the Beneficent, the Merciful)

لَآ أُقْسِمُ بِهَٰذَا ٱلْبَلَدِ 1  وَأَنتَ حِلٌّۢ بِهَٰذَا ٱلْبَلَدِ 2  وَوَالِدٍ وَمَا وَلَدَ 3  لَقَدْ خَلَقْنَا ٱلْإِنسَٰنَ فِى كَبَدٍ 4  أَيَحْسَبُ أَن لَّن يَقْدِرَ عَلَيْهِ أَحَدٌ 5  يَقُولُ أَهْلَكْتُ مَالًا لُّبَدًا 6  أَيَحْسَبُ أَن لَّمْ يَرَهُۥٓ أَحَدٌ 7  أَلَمْ نَجْعَل لَّهُۥ عَيْنَيْنِ 8  وَلِسَانًا وَشَفَتَيْنِ 9  وَهَدَيْنَٰهُ ٱلنَّجْدَيْنِ 10

Thinks he that none has power over him?  6. And he says: I have destroyed vast wealth:  7. Thinks he that none beholds him?  8. Did We not assign unto him two eyes  9. And a tongue and two lips,  10. And guide him to the parting of the mountain ways?

It is commanded: That is not as you think. Observe the state of this Township Makkah, which will become an exemplary Township on a day, and in which Our Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) will enter as a conqueror. Citizen life begins by getting together of mankind and his descendents. Every mankind should perform his duties of citizenship. No one is permitted to remain unemployed. Allaah Almighty has Divine Power of every kind over everything. Rich people should not boast that they have spent their wealth as they desired. They should consider that they are in the Control of their Lord in all respects and He has been looking their every work. Allaah is Almighty Who bestowed beauty to the face of mankind, decorated two eyes, one tongue and two lips at their proper places, and gave sense for understanding and using it to know advantageous and harmful things for himself.

Introduction of Chapter “BALAD” – (The City) - 90

 

Introduction of “The City” (L-3460)

Chapter “BALAD” – (The City) - 90

According to Qur’anic order, this is Ninetieth Chapter. It was revealed during very early day of Islam in Makkah. It was described in the previous Chapter: You must not be involved every time in the interests and thoughts of the worldly changing circumstances. You should try to arrange your life in all conditions, and adopt such faiths and works; in which there must be for you betterment in this world and in the Hereafter. In this Chapter the way of dwelling together mutually in a Township has been described, because human beings cannot live collectively without making Townships. And collective life is necessary for perfection of mankind’s actual life. Therefore, every citizen should know his duties and rights.

It is commanded: Meditate in the condition of Makkah Township, where O Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him): you have to be living. In the life of Township, the first thing is that every individual should give respect to mutual relationships, and everyone should work hard according to own capability. Every mankind should understand that he is under the control of God’s Divine Power in every respect. He must never boast that he has abundant wealth and that he can spend his wealth as, where and when he desires, and that there is no one who may criticise or question him. The mankind should never forget his Lord Who made his face best, bestowed two eyes, one tongue and two lips, by which his face became very suitable. Moreover, Allaah Almighty bestowed him sense. If he will use it properly, he will be able to know his betterment and badness thoroughly. By this he can understand that what is beneficial for him and what is harmful. Alas! He could neither do great works of the religion, nor cause to release the slaves, nor arrange to fulfil the requirements of the needy, nor save the poor from their troubles, nor provide food for the hungry and the orphans during dearth, nor help the relatives in their difficulties, nor believe in Allaah Almighty and nor say to the people: Don’t be confused in afflictions, have patience, draw attention to Allaah Almighty and be kind for one another mutually.

The people who will perform their duties of the life of citizenship, believe in Allaah Almighty and do good works for one another altogether, they will be successful everywhere. It will be better for them in this world and on the Day of Resurrection. But those who ignore Our Revelations and falsify them, they are unlucky at both places. Although they can pass their worldly lives as they wish, but when they will be brought back to life again after death, will be thrown into the Fire, which will enclose them from all around.

Important points in Chapter “The Dawn”

Important points in “The Dawn” (L-3459)

This Chapter describes the mankind about a very important thing, to which he seldom pays attention, whereas he can never get success without understanding it thoroughly. The mankind is entangled in the changes of the outward appearance of the world. He looks changes in the morning and evening with interest and tries to enjoy from it including from the seasonal changes. He collects the things for dwelling according to the requirement of every kind of weather. He observes the things of the world coming together in different numbers. Some numbers cannot be divided into two, for example – 1, 3, 5, 7, 9 etc. which are called odd, and some numbers can be divided into two, for example – 2, 4, 6, 8 etc. which are called even. Moreover, he considers that some numbers from them are auspicious for him, but some are ill-omened (unlucky). Like this, he determines that his life is as a collection of only external circumstances.

In this Chapter, it has been described: The mankind considers that different circumstances of the world are his life, and then he is engaged in their meditation, thinks that wealth and property are substance of life. So he begins to collect all worldly things. When he does not have money in his pocket, feels himself in much trouble.

Mankind has been guided in this Chapter: Riches and poverty are nothing. Your life is some other thing. Actual life is – having belief in Allaah Almighty, bowing down before Him and obeying His Commands. Allaah Almighty desires to examine the mankind by keeping changes in the circumstances of the world and by making the mankind’s conditions different. We must carry out entire Commandments of our Lord in all circumstances and environments, and try to please Him in all conditions. If one is rich, he should spend his wealth for helping the orphans and the poor; instead of depositing in own treasury, but he should fulfill the requirements of the members of his family and needy relatives, learn and teach good manners.

Mankind should take lesson from the circumstances of ancient people who forgot the actual aim of this life and were involved in acquiring worldly pomp. They considered that actual life was – collecting of wealth and treasures; and keeping other people under control. They were punished, Allaah almighty caused them to suffer from various disasters and they were ruined. On the Day of Resurrection they will be thrown into the Hell.

Actual success of life is in it that we should obey Allaah Almighty in all conditions, be thankful to Him in prosperity and help the needy and the poor. If there is poverty, no one should consider that he is an abject and nor abase himself before other people, but execute the Commands of Allaah Almighty at any rate and become His most obedient servant. Such people will deserve the Paradise.

The Last Scene

 

The Last Scene (L-3458)

يَقُولُ يَٰلَيْتَنِى قَدَّمْتُ لِحَيَاتِى 24  فَيَوْمَئِذٍ لَّا يُعَذِّبُ عَذَابَهُۥٓ أَحَدٌ 25  وَلَا يُوثِقُ وَثَاقَهُۥٓ أَحَدٌ 26  يَٰٓأَيَّتُهَا ٱلنَّفْسُ ٱلْمُطْمَئِنَّةُ 27  ٱرْجِعِىٓ إِلَىٰ رَبِّكِ رَاضِيَةً مَّرْضِيَّةً 28  فَٱدْخُلِى فِى عِبَٰدِى 29  وَٱدْخُلِى جَنَّتِى 30

24.  Yaquulu  yaalaytanii  qaddamtu  li-Hayaatii.  25.  Fa-Yawma-‘izil-laa  yu-'azzibu  'AzaabaHuuu  ‘ahad.  26.  Wa  laa  yuusiqu  wasaaqa-Huuu  ‘ahad.  27.  Yaaa-‘ayyatuhan-Nafsul-mutma-'innah.  28.  ‘Irji-'iii  ‘ilaa  Rabbiki  raaziyatam-marziyyah.  29.  Fadkhulii  fii 'ibaaDii.  30.  Wadkhulii  Jannatii. (Section 1/14)

24. He will say: Ah, would that I had sent before me (some provision) for my life!  25. None punishes as He will punish on that day!  26. None binds as He then will bind.  27. But ah! You soul at peace!  28. Return unto your Lord, content in His good pleasure!  29. Enter you among My bondmen!  30. Enter you My Garden!

It is commanded: The person who disobeyed the Sayings of the Messenger of Allaah Almighty, Muhammad (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) in this world, will say when his eyes will be opened on the Day of Resurrection: Would that I had done such righteous works, when I was living in the world, which would have been useful for me Today (on the Day of Judgement).

Alas! The people have forgotten Allaah Almighty today (in the life of this world). They have to bear in mind that on the Day of Resurrection, Allaah Almighty will torment to His disobedient so much severely that any other cannot torment. He will seize them in such scare tying that no one else can fasten so tightly.

Contrary to them, the people who did good works in the world being satisfied from the Commandments of Allaah Almighty, and they did not have any doubt in His Revelations, it will be said to them: Return to your Lord Today happily, content in His good pleasure.

It will be commanded: Enter among My righteous servants and enter My Paradise.
