The virtues of Helpers

 

The virtues of Helpers (L-3225)

 وَيُؤْثِرُونَ عَلَىٰٓ أَنفُسِهِمْ وَلَوْ كَانَ بِهِمْ خَصَاصَةٌ وَمَن يُوقَ شُحَّ نَفْسِهِۦ فَأُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ هُمُ ٱلْمُفْلِحُونَ 9b  وَٱلَّذِينَ جَآءُو مِنۢ بَعْدِهِمْ يَقُولُونَ رَبَّنَا ٱغْفِرْ لَنَا وَلِإِخْوَٰنِنَا ٱلَّذِينَ سَبَقُونَا بِٱلْإِيمَٰنِ وَلَا تَجْعَلْ فِى قُلُوبِنَا غِلًّا لِّلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ رَبَّنَآ إِنَّكَ رَءُوفٌ رَّحِيمٌ 10 

9b.  wa  yu'-siruuna  'alaaa  ‘anfu-sihim  wa  law  kaana  bihim  khasaasah.  Wa  many-yuuqa  shuh-ha  nafsihii  fa-‘ulaaa-'ika  humul-Muflihuun.

10.  Wallaziina  jaaa-'uu  mim-ba'-dihim  yaquuluuna  Rabbanag-fir-lanaa  wa  li-‘ikhwaani-nallaziina  sabaquunaa  bil-‘Iimaani  wa  laa  taj-'al  fii  quluubinaa  gillallillaziina  ‘aamanuu  Rabbannaaa  ‘innaka  Ra-‘uufur-Rahiim. (Part One-Fourth) (Section 1/4)

9b.  but prefer (the fugitives) above themselves though poverty become their lot. And whoso is saved from his own avarice - such are they who are successful.

10. And those who came (into the faith) after them say: Our Lord! Forgive us and our brethren who were before us in the faith, and place not in our hearts any rancour toward those who believe. Our Lord! You are Full of Pity, Merciful.

It is commanded: Ansaar (dwellers of Madinah) love the Refugees more than themselves and provide food to them even though they are in privation. They give preference to the requirements of the Refugees over themselves. It is commanded: Whoever is protected from personal desires and the stinginess of his soul, and who can control themselves, it is those who will be the successful. Greedy people do not like to let others prosper.

After that it is commanded: This wealth of the enemy which is acquired with collective efforts or gotten freely; is a right of those necessitous until the Hour who came after the above mentioned people and followed them step by step; and remembered them also at the time of supplicating for own forgiveness and said: Our Lord! Forgive us and our brothers who preceded us in faith. O Lord! Put not in our hearts any resentment toward those who have believed. Our Lord! To err is human but You are Kind and Merciful. Forgive all of them and us.
