Ayat 23. (O ! Messenger of Allah [SAWW](PBUH), And never say of anything, "I shall do such and such thing tomorrow."
Ayat 24. Except (with the
saying), "If Allah will!" And remember your Lord when you forget and say: "It
may be that my Lord guides me unto a nearer way of truth than this."
[Tafseer] Verses 23 and 24 are
parenthetical. We must never rely upon our own resources so much as to forget
Allah. If by any chance we do forget, we must come back to Him and keep Him in
remembrance, as did the Companions of the Cave. In geometry the perfect circle is an ideal. Any
given circle that we draw is not so perfect that we cannot draw one closer to
the ideal. So in our life, there is always the hope of drawing closer and closer
to
Allah.
Hazrat Ibn Abbas
(May Allah be pleased with them) reported: The Messenger of Allah
[SAWW](PBUH) visited a Bedouin who was sick. Whenever he visited an ailing
person, he would say, "La ba'sa, tahurun in sha' Allah [No harm, (it will be a)
purification (from sins), if Allah
wills].''
[Al-Bukhari
Book 09, Chapter 93, Hadith #
562].
Lesson : as
mentioned above in Surah Al-Kahf Ayat 24. "Except (with the
saying), "If Allah wills!" According to
this Hadith, a patient should be told that his disease will purge out his sins.
To sit beside the sick, to comfort his heart and to say a few words of sympathy
to him was the Prophet's [SAWW](PBUH) practice.
