English Translation of Al-Quran

[39].Surah Al-Zumar [The Groups]

Ayat 25. Those before them (Pagans of Makkah) belied (the prophets), and so the torment came on them from directions they perceived not.

Ayat 26. So Allah made them to taste the disgrace in the present life, but greater is the torment of the Hereafter if they only knew!

Tafseer of Surah Al Zumar Ayat 25. Those before them (also) rejected (revelation), and so the Punishment came to them from directions they did not perceive. Cf. 16:26. They will be punished from quarters or in ways they do not perceive. From their Unbelief and Rebellion they think they derive great advantages, but they suddenly find out, when too late, that that which they exulted in was the cause of their undoing. Ayat 26. So Allah gave them a taste of humiliation in the present life, but greater is the punishment of the Hereafter, if they only knew! Cf. 2:114. Sin often brings disgrace and humiliation in this life, but the greater and truer punishment is in the Hereafter. But men often do not know the inwardness of this matter. If they flourish here for a time, they think they will escape the real consequences in the Hereafter. Or if they suffer little harm here, they think that will make up the Penalty, and they will escape the Hereafter. Both ideas are wrong.

English Translation of Hadith  

Hazrat Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah [SAWW](PBUH) said,  "Verily, Allah gives respite to the oppressor. But when He seizes him, He does not let him escape.'' Then he (PBUH)) recited, "Such is the Seizure of your Rubb when He seizes the (population of) towns while they are doing wrong. Verily, His Seizure is painful (and) severe". (11:102).

[Al-Bukhari Book 06, Chapter 60, Hadith # 208] 

Lesson: as mentioned above in Surah Al-Zumar Ayat 25. Those before them (Pagans of Makkah) belied (the prophets), and so the torment came on them from directions they perceived not. " One should not take the respite for exemption because no one knows when respite granted by Him will come to an end and punishment will follow.

Daily Qur'an & Hadith 31 May 2015 (12 Shaban 1436)

English Translation of Al-Quran

[39].Surah Al-Zumar [The Groups]

Ayat 24. Is he then, who will confront with his face the awful torment on the Day of Resurrection (as he who enters peacefully in Paradise)? And it will be said to the Zalimun (polytheists and wrong-doers, etc.): "Taste what you used to earn!"

Tafseer of Surah Al Zumar Ayat 24. Is, then, one who has to fear the brunt of the Penalty on the Day of Judgment (and receive it) on his face, (like one guarded therefrom)? It will be said to the wrong- doers: "Taste ye (the fruits of) what ye earned!" The unrepentant Sinners will receive the full Penalty on the Day of Judgment. They will receive it full in the face, i.e., their whole being will be affected by it. Their hands (figuratively) will be tied, and they cannot therefore use their hands to ward off the Penalty of the Fire: in any case their hands will not have the power to ward it off. Are such helpless people to be compared for a moment with people who have received Grace and are therefore guarded from all harm and danger? Certainly not. To the evil the fruit of their deed, and to the good the grace of their Lord! That is, of all their misdeeds, all the evil which they did in the world.

English Translation of Hadith  

Hazrat Anas (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: A young Jewish boy who was in the service of the Prophet  [SAWW](PBUH) fell ill. The Prophet  [SAWW](PBUH) went to visit him. He sat down by his head and said to him, "Embrace Islam.'' The little boy looked at his father who was sitting beside him. He said: "Obey Abul-Qasim (i.e., the Messenger of Allah  [SAWW](PBUH)).'' So he embraced Islam and the Prophet  [SAWW](PBUH) stepped out saying, "Praise be to Allah Who has saved him from Hell-fire.'' 

[Muslim, Book 07, Chapter 70, Hadith # 561] 

Lesson: as mentioned above in Surah Al-Zumar Ayat 24. Is he then, who will confront with his face the awful torment on the Day of Resurrection" Herein, the example of the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) inspires us to visit even a sick disbeliever and invite him to accept Islam. Besides, the Hadith tells that the company of the virtuous does bear fruit and that we should continue to hope that the heart of a disbeliever will turn to Allah at any moment. Furthermore, we come to believe that parents, though not clinging to the right way, may tell their offspring to pursue the truth.

Daily Qur'an & Hadith 30 May 2015 (11 Shaban 1436)

English Translation of Al-Quran

[39].Surah Al-Zumar [The Groups]

Ayat 23. Allah has sent down the best statement, a Book (this Qur'an), its parts resembling each other in goodness and truth, oft-repeated. The skins of those who fear their Lord shiver from it (when they recite it or hear it). Then their skin and their heart soften to the remembrance of Allah. That is the guidance of Allah. He Guides there with whom He pleases and whomever Allah sends astray, for him there is no guide.

Tafseer of Surah Al Zumar Ayat 23. Allah has revealed (from time to time) the most beautiful Message in the form of a Book, consistent with itself, (yet) repeating (its teaching in various aspects): the skins of those who fear their Lord tremble thereat; then their skins and their hearts do soften to the celebration of Allah's praises. Such is the guidance of Allah. He guides there with whom He pleases, but such as Allah leaves to stray, can have none to guide. Is Mutashabih here to be understood in the same sense as in 3:7? The better opinion is that there is a slightly different shade of meaning here, as suggested by the context. In the earlier passages, it was opposed to Muhkam: here it is contrasted or compared to Mathani the root meaning is: 'having something similar; working by analogy or allegory, or parable; having its parts consistent with each other'. The last meaning I adopt here. The Qur'an was revealed in parts at different times. And yet its parts all conform to each other. There is no contradiction or inconsistency anywhere. Matham: Cf. 15:87, where we have translated "oft-repeated": "The seven oft repeated (verses)". Here the meaning is similar, but the context gives a different color to it, as is seen in the translation. The skin is the outer integument of the body. It receives the first shock from the impact of anything unusual, and it trembles and its hair stands on end under excitement. So in spiritual matters the first stimulation from Allah's Message is external. Those who receive Faith do it as it were with tremor and not with apathy. But the next stage is that it penetrates their outer nature and goes right into their hearts. Their whole nature is "softened" to receive the beneficent Message, and it transforms them through and through. "Whom He pleases" and "leaves to stray" are explained fully in to 16:93. See also 14:4.

English Translation of Hadith  

Hazrat Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah [SAWW](PBUH) said,  "When a group of people assemble for the remembrance of Allah, the angels surround them (with their wings), (Allah's) mercy envelops them, Sakinah, or tranquility descends upon them and Allah makes a mention of them before those who are near Him.''

[Muslim Book 35, Chapter 11, Hadith # 6518].

Lesson: as mentioned above in Surah Al-Zumar Ayat 23. Allah has sent down the best statement, a Book (this Qur'an), its parts resembling each other in goodness and truth" This Hadith also highlights the merits of remembrance of Allah and the high grades of the people indulging in it.

Daily Qur'an & Hadith 29 May 2015 (10 Shaban 1436)

English Translation of Al-Quran

[39].Surah Al-Zumar [The Groups]

Ayat 22. Is he whose breast Allah has opened to Islam, so that he is in light from His Lord (as he who is non-submissive)? So, woe to those whose hearts are hardened against remembrance of Allah! They are in plain error!

Tafseer of Surah Al Zumar Ayat 22. Is one whose heart Allah has opened to Islam, so that he has received Enlightenment from Allah, (no better than one hard-hearted)? Woe to those whose hearts are hardened against celebrating the praises of Allah. They are manifestly wandering (in error)! Those who listen to Allah's Message find at each stage Allah's Grace helping them more and more to expand their spiritual understanding and to receive Allah's light, so that they travel farther and farther to their Goal in the Path of Truth and Righteousness. They are not to be compared to those who shut out Allah's Light from their hearts. Just as there is spiritual progress for those who seek Allah, so there is more and more spiritual retrogression for those who close their hearts to Allah. Their hearts get hardened, and they allow less and less Allah's Grace to penetrate within. But it is obvious that they flounder on the Way, and cannot walk with the firm steps of those of assured Faith.

 

English Translation of Hadith  

Hazrat Abu Musa Al-Ashari (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah [SAWW](PBUH) said, "The similitude of one who remembers his Rubb and one who does not remember Him, is like that of the living and the dead.''

[Muslim Book 04, Chapter 121, Hadith # 1706]

Lesson: as mentioned above in Surah Al-Zumar Ayat 22. "Woe to those whose hearts are hardened against remembrance of Allah! They are in plain error! "Lack of remembrance of Allah is akin to death. When a person dies, he is unable to do anything. Similarly, a person who does not remember Allah goes so far from Him that he cannot do anything which can benefit him.

Daily Qur'an & Hadith 28 May 2015 (09 Shaban 1436)

English Translation of Al-Quran

[39].Surah Al-Zumar [The Groups]

Ayat 21. See you not, that Allah sends down water (rain) from the sky, and causes it to penetrate the earth, (and then makes it to spring up) as water-springs and afterward thereby produces crops of different colors, and afterward they wither and you see them turn yellow, then He makes them dry and broken pieces. Verily, in this, is a Reminder for men of understanding.

Tafseer of Surah Al Zumar Ayat 21. Sees thou not that Allah sends down rain from the sky, and leads it through springs in the earth? Then He causes to grow, therewith, produce of various colors: then it withers; thou wilt see it grow yellow; then He makes it dry up and crumble away. Truly, in this, is a message of remembrance to men of understanding. The circuit of water, by which the rain falls from the clouds, is absorbed through the earth, and flows through rivers or underground streams to the sea, where it again rises as vapors and forms clouds, was explained in 25:53. Here our attention is drawn to one portion of the process. The rain fructifies the soil and the seeds. Produce of various kinds is raised. The harvest ripens and is gathered in. The plants wither, dry up, and crumble away. Men and animals are fed. And the circuit starts again in another season.

English Translation of Hadith  

Hazrat Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah [SAWW](PBUH) said,  Hazrat Jabir bin Abdullah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah [SAWW](PBUH) was passing through the bazaar with his Companions on his both sides, when he saw a dead skinny lamb. He held its ear and said, "Who of you would like to have it for a dirham". They replied, "We do not like to get it for nothing, and what shall we do with it?". Then he (PBUH) asked, "Would you like to have it for nothing?". They replied, "Had it been alive, it would have been defective because it is skinny; but when dead it is of no use". Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said, "Truly, the world is more contemptible to Allah than this (the dead lamb) is to you".

[Muslim Book 42, Chapter 01, Hadith # 7059].

Lesson: as mentioned above in Surah Al-Zumar Ayat 21 "Verily, in this, is a Reminder for men of understanding" This Hadith also shows the futility of this world for which one struggles so madly throughout his life. It is also an indication that the Prophet  [SAWW](PBUH) used to seize the right opportunities to guide and teach his followers.

Daily Qur'an & Hadith 27 May 2015 (08 Shaban 1436)

English Translation of Al-Quran

[39].Surah Al-Zumar [The Groups]

Ayat 20. But those who fear Allah and keep their duty to their Lord (Allah), for them are built lofty rooms; one above another under which rivers flow (i.e. Paradise). (This is) the Promise of Allah: and Allah does not fail in (His) Promise.

Tafseer of Surah Al Zumar Ayat 20. But it is for those who fear their Lord. That lofty mansions, one above another, have been built: beneath them flow rivers (of delight): (such is) the Promise of Allah. Never doubt Allah fail in (His) promise. Cf. 29:58, and 34:37. The idea of heaven here is that of a Home of sublimity and beauty, with a picturesque outlook, such as we would describe in this life by the type of a palace by gently-flowing streams. The mansions will also suggest generous space and architectural beauty, tiers upon tiers piled one upon another. Mi 'ad: the time, place and manner of the fulfilment of a Promise. Allah's promise will be fulfilled in all particulars better than we can possibly imagine.

 

English Translation of Hadith  

Hazrat Abu Musa (May Allah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allah [SAWW](PBUH) said, "In Jannah the believer will have a tent made of a single hollowed pearl of which the length will be sixty miles in the sky. The believer will have his wives with him and he will visit them and they will not be able to see one another.''

[Al-Bukhari Book 04, Chapter 54, Hadith # 466].

Lesson: as mentioned above in Surah Al-Zumar Ayat 20 "those who fear Allah and keep their duty to their Lord (Allah), for them are built lofty rooms;" This Hadith highlights the merits of pious and Allah's gift to them a tent made of a single hollowed pearl, these bounties will be other than there huge palaces in Paradise that also shows expansiveness and vastness of the Paradise.

Daily Qur'an & Hadith 26 May 2015 (07 Shaban 1436)

English Translation of Al-Quran

[39].Surah Al-Zumar [The Groups]

Ayat 17. Those who avoid At-Taghut (false deities) by not worshipping them and turn to Allah in repentance, for them are glad tidings; so announce the good news to My servants,

Ayat 18. Those who listen to the Word [good advice La ilaha ill-Allah (none has the right to be worshipped but Allah) and Islamic Monotheism, etc.] and follow the best thereof (i.e. worship Allah Alone, repent to Him and avoid Taghut, etc.) those are (the ones) whom Allah has guided and those are men of understanding (like Zaid bin 'Amr bin Nufail, Salman Al-Farisi and Abu Dhar Al-Ghifari).

Ayat 19. Is, then one against whom the Word of punishment justified (equal to the one who avoids evil). Will you rescue him who is in the Fire?

Tafseer of Surah Al Zumar Ayat 17. There is always the danger that Evil may seize us even if we approach it out of mere curiosity. If we take an interest in it we may become its worshippers or slaves. The wise man eschews it altogether, and so he enrolls among the Servants of Allah, and gets the good news of His Mercy and Good Pleasure. Ayat 18. Those who listen to the Word, and follow the best (meaning) in it: those are the ones whom Allah has guided, and those are the ones endued with understanding. The commentators construe this clause in two alternative ways. {1) if "word" be taken as any word, the clause would mean that good men listen to all that is said and choose the best of it. (2) If "word" be taken to mean Allah's Word, it would mean that they should listen reverently to it, and where permissive and alternative courses are allowed for those who are not strong enough to follow the higher course, those "endued with understanding" should prefer to attempt the higher course of conduct. For example, it is permitted (within limits) to punish those who wrong us, but the nobler course is to repel evil with good (23:96), we should try to follow the nobler course. I prefer the latter construction: it accords better with my interpretation of the last verse: Ayat 19. Is, then, one against whom the decree of Punishment is justly due (equal to one who eschews Evil)? Wouldst thou, then, deliver one (who is) in the Fire? If a man is already steeped in sin and has rejected Allah's Grace, how can we expect Revelation to work in his soul?

English Translation of Hadith  

Hazrat Abu Musa (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: Messenger of Allah  [SAWW] (PBUH) said, "The relationship of the believer with another believer is like (the bricks of) a building, each strengthens the other.'' He  [SAWW](PBUH) illustrated this by interlacing the fingers of both his hands.

[Al-Bukhari Volume 3, Book 43, Number Hadith 626)

Lesson: as mentioned above in Surah Al-Zumar Ayat 18. Those who listen to the Word [good advice La ilaha ill-Allah (none has the right to be worshipped but Allah) and Islamic Monotheism, etc.] and follow the best thereof (i.e. worship Allah Alone, repent to Him and avoid Taghut, etc.) This Hadith enjoins unity in the Muslim community, each member of which is like a brick, which, when they are all combined, lend strength to each other. Similarly, Muslims are like hands and arms, which physically joined together, are bound to co-operate with one another.
