English Translation of Al-Quran
[37].Surah As-Saffat (Those Ranged in Ranks)
Ayat 83. And, verily, among those who followed his [Nuh's PBUH (Noah)] way (Islamic Monotheism) was Ibrahim PBUH (Abraham).
Ayat 84. When he came to his Lord with a pure heart [attached to Allah Alone and none else, worshipping none but Allah Alone true Islamic Monotheism, pure from the filth of polytheism].
Ayat 85. When Ibrahim PBUH said to his father and to his people: "What is it that which you worship?
Ayat 86. "Is it a falsehood aliha (gods) other than Allah that you seek?
Ayat 87. "Then what do you think about the Lord of the 'Alamin (mankind, jinn's, and all that exists)?"
Ayat 88. Then he cast a glance at the stars (to deceive them),
Ayat 89. And he said: "Verily, I am sick (with plague. He did this trick to remain in their temple of idols to destroy them and not to accompany them to the pagan's feast)."
Ayat 90. So they turned away from him, and departed (for fear of the disease).
Tafseer of Surah As-Saffat (Those Ranged in Ranks) Ayat 83. Verily among those who followed his Way was Abraham PBUH. The main story will be found in 21:51-73; but the episode about his readiness and that of his son to submit to the most extreme form of self-sacrifice under trial (in verses 102-107 below) is told here for the first time, as this Surah deals with the theme, "Not my will, but Thine be done!" In "followed his way", the pronoun "his" refers to Noah PBUH. Ayat 84. Behold! Ibrahim PBUH approached his Lord with a sound heart. "A sound heart"; qalb Salem: a heart that is pure, and unaffected by the diseases that afflict others, as the heart in Arabic is taken to be not only the seat of feelings and affections, but also of intelligence and resulting action, it implies the whole character. Cf. Abraham's title of Hanif (the True); 2:135 and n. 134. Cf. also 26:89: "only he will prosper who brings to Allah a sound heart." Ayat 85. Behold! He PBUH said to his father and to his people, "What is that which ye worship? Ayat 86. "Is it a falsehood- gods other than Allah. That ye desire? False worship—worship of idols or stars or symbols, or Mammon or Self-is due either to false and degrading conceptions of Allah, or to a sort of make believe, where practice is inconsistent with knowledge or ignores the inner promptings of Conscience. Abraham's challenge to his people is: 'Are you fools or hypocrites?' Ayat 87. "Then what is your idea about the Lord of the Worlds?" 'Do you not realize that the real Creator is One-above all the forms and superstitions that you associate with Him?' Ayat 88. Then did he cast a glance at the Stars. Ayat 89. And he said, "I am indeed sick (at heart)!" The grief was really preying on his mind and soul, that he should be associated with such falsehoods. His father himself was among the chief supporters of such falsehoods, and his people were given up wholly to them. He could not possibly share in their mummeries, and they left him in disgust. Then he made his practical protest in the manner narrated in 21:56 -64. Ayat 90. So they turned away from him, and departed.
English Translation of Hadith
Hazrat Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah
[SAWW](PBUH) said, "Verily, Allah likes three things for you and disapproves three things for you. He likes that you should worship Him Alone, not to associate anything with Him (in worship) and to hold fast to the Rope of Allah and not to be divided among yourselves; and He disapproves for you irrelevant talk, persistent questioning and the squandering of the wealth.''
[Muslim Book 018, Chapter 03, Hadith # 4255]."
Lesson: as mentioned above in Surah As-Saffat Ayat 85. When Ibrahim PBUH said to his father and to his people: "What is it that which you worship?." Besides stressing Tauhid, holding fast to the Rope of Allah and unity (which are greatly liked by Allah), this Hadith forbids unnecessary debate, hair-splitting and extravagance as all the three are disliked by Allah. Wealth has a great importance in man's life since it is the very source of sustenance and basis of his livelihood, its wastage is akin to cutting the branch of the tree on which one is sitting.
