Question concerning The Beneficent

Chapter “Furqaan”- {The Criterion (of Right and Wrong)} – 25

‘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)

                                                           

ٱلَّذِى خَلَقَ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضَ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا فِى سِتَّةِ أَيَّامٍثُمَّ ٱسْتَوَىٰ عَلَى ٱلْعَرْشِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنُ فَسْـَٔلْ بِهِۦ خَبِيرًا 59  وَإِذَا قِيلَ لَهُمُ ٱسْجُدُوا۟ لِلرَّحْمَٰنِ قَالُوا۟ وَمَا ٱلرَّحْمَٰنُ أَنَسْجُدُ لِمَا تَأْمُرُنَا وَزَادَهُمْ نُفُورًا 60

59.  Who created the heavens and the earth and all that is between them in six Days, then He mounted the Throne. The Beneficent! Ask anyone informed concerning Him!   60.  And when it is said unto them: Adore the Beneficent! They say: And what is the Beneficent? Are we to adore whatever thou (Muhammad) biddest us? And it increaseth aversion in them.

59.  ‘Allazii  khalaqas-samaawaati  wal-‘arza  wa  maa  bayna-humaa  fii  sittati  ‘ayyaamin  summastawaa  ‘alal-‘Arshi  ‘Ar-Rahmaanu  fas-‘al  bihii  khabiiraa.   60.  Wa  ‘izaa  qiila  laHumus-juduu  lir-Rahmaani  qaaluu  wa  mar-Rahmaan?  ‘Anasjudu  li-maa  ta’-murunaa  wa  zaada-hum  nufuuraa. (As-Sajdah – Bow down) (Section 5)

Commentary

 

It is commanded: O Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him)! You should bow down before Allaah Almighty, The Immortal, and trust in Him Who completed the creation of this spacious system of the heavens and the earth in a long duration gradually. You can say that it was done within Six Days, but the measurement of those Days cannot be calculated according to the times of this world. Foundation of the time of this world depends on the sun and the moon. But the heavens and the earth were created before them. The Day of those times will be determined equal to one thousand years and sometime fifty thousand years according to the present days.

 

After creating these entire things, Allaah Almighty mounted the Throne, which is called “Arsh”. This all is Manifestation of His kindness and He is the most Merciful. If you desire to know Allaah Almighty, you should ask from that who knows Him. These idolaters do not know The Beneficent. When they are instructed to bow down before The Beneficent, they say: What is The Beneficent? Should we adore Him concerning Whom you {O Muhammad (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him)} bid us?

 

Aversion of these ignorant people increases more when the name of The Beneficent is spoken before them and they get one more evasion of denial that you have given up Allaah and now one other God has created. It is nothing but your own commandment.

 

(After reciting or hearing this verse, one should bow down before Allaah Almighty).

Allah shall never die

Chapter “Furqaan”- {The Criterion (of Right and Wrong)} – 25

‘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)

                                                           

قُلْ مَآ أَسْـَٔلُكُمْ عَلَيْهِ مِنْأَجْرٍ إِلَّا مَن شَآءَ أَن يَتَّخِذَ إِلَىٰ رَبِّهِۦ سَبِيلًا 57  وَتَوَكَّلْ عَلَى ٱلْحَىِّ ٱلَّذِى لَا يَمُوتُ وَسَبِّحْ بِحَمْدِهِۦ وَكَفَىٰ بِهِۦ بِذُنُوبِ عِبَادِهِۦ خَبِيرًا 58

57.  Say: I ask of you no reward for this, save that whoso will may choose a way unto his Lord.   58.  And trust thou in the Living One Who dieth not, and hymn His Praise. And He sufficeth as the Knower of His bondmen’s sins –

57.  Qul  maaa  ‘as-‘alukum  ‘alayhi  min  ‘ajrin  ‘illaa  man  shaaa-‘a  ‘any-yattakhiza  ‘ilaa  Rabbihii  Sabiilaa.   58.  Wa  tawakkal  ‘alal-Hayyil-lazii  laa  yamuutU  wa  sabbih  bi-HamdiH.  Wa  kafaa  biHii  bi-zunuubi  ‘ibaadiHii  Khabiiraa.

Commentary

 

It was described earlier that the mankind is such a careless person who forgot his Lord and has been worshiping such things which neither have power to benefit him and nor those can hurt him. For startling him from the negligence, Prophets of Allaah Almighty (peace be upon them) were sent, but he conceived that they were also selfish like him (Let us flee to Allaah), and he accused them falsely that “while they have no any special quality then why should he admit them as guide? They too have been striving for acquiring wealth and property, honor and strength. They wish that the people should obey them, produce gifts, offerings and vows before them, so that they may command the people and enjoy”.

 

In this verse, it is being commanded to the Messenger Muhammad (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him): Put their misunderstanding away by saying clearly that! I do not ask any reward of you. I am not necessitous of anything from your earnings. The only object of mine is that I should guide the human beings unto that path which leads towards Allaah Almighty. And whosoever is desirous of that path, I should convey him its Sign and teach about the Way of going on that path.

 

Then it is commanded: O Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him): You should trust in That Who is the Living One, Who will never die, and hymn His Praise every time in these words “SubhaanAllaahi  wa  bi-HamdiHii, SubhaanAllaahil  ‘Aziim”. And you should not worry concerning the sins of His bondmen. He knows about their wrong deeds very well. His knowledge and Power is sufficient to reward or punish against their good or wrong deeds.
