[28].Surah Al-Qasas [The Narration]: Ayat 10-11



১০. সকালে মূসা জননীর অন্তর অস্থির হয়ে পড়ল। যদি আমি তার হৃদয়কে দৃঢ় করে না দিতাম, তবে তিনি মূসাজনিত অস্থিরতা প্রকাশ করেই দিতেন। দৃঢ় করলাম, যাতে তিনি থাকেন বিশ্বাসীগনের মধ্যে।
১১. তিনি মূসার ভগিনীকে বললেন, তার পেছন পেছন যাও। সে তাদের অজ্ঞাতসারে অপরিচিতা হয়ে তাকে দেখে যেতে লাগল।

Ayat 10. And the heart of the mother of Musa (Moses) became empty [from every thought, except the thought of Musa (Moses)]. She was very near to disclose his (case, i.e. the child is her son), had Allah not strengthened her heart (with Faith), so that she might remain as one of the believers.
Ayat 11. And she said to his [Musa's (Moses)] sister: "Follow him." So she (his sister) watched him from a far place secretly, while they perceived not.

Tafseer of Surah Al-Qasas (The Narration) Ayat 10 & 11. But there came to be a void in the heart of the mother of Moses: She was going almost to disclose his (case), had We not strengthened her heart (with faith), so that she might remain a (firm) believer. The mother's heartfelt the gaping void at parting from her son; but her Faith in Allah's Providence kept her from betraying herself. And she said to the sister of (Moses), "Follow him" so she (the sister) watched him in the character of a stranger. And they knew not.

Hazrat Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allahimage001.jpg [SAWW](PBUH) said,  "Allah, the Exalted, says: 'I have no reward other than Jannah for a believing slave of Mine who remains patient for My sake when I take away his beloved one from among the inhabitants of the world".
[Al-Bukhari Book 08, Chapter 76, Hadith # 432].  

Lesson : as mentioned above in Surah Al-Qasas Ayat 10. “She was very near to disclose his (case, i.e. the child is her son), had Allah not strengthened her heart (with Faith), so that she might remain as one of the believers”Child, wife and parents, etc., are the dearest people to everyone. It is a great sign of Faith to accept their death as the Will of Allah, to bear their loss with patience. Wailing and saying nonsense things show weakness of Faith. The reward of patience on such tragedies is Jannah while the result of impatience is displeasure of Allah.

[28].Surah Al-Qasas [The Narration]: Ayat 9


৯. ফেরাউনের স্ত্রী বলল, িএ শিশু আমার ও তোমার নয়নমনি, তাকে হত্যা করো না।এ আমাদের উপকারে আসতে পারে অথবা আমরা তারে পুত্র করে নিতে পারি। প্রকৃতপক্ষে পরিনাম সম্পর্কে তাদের কোন খবর ছিল না।

Ayat 9. And the wife of Firaun (Pharaoh) said: "A comfort of the eye for me and for you. Kill him not, perhaps he may be of benefit to us, or we may adopt him as a son." And they perceive not (the result of that).
Tafseer of Surah Al-Qasas (The Narration) Ayat 9. The wife of Pharaoh said: "(Here is) joy of the eye, for me and for thee: slay him not. It may be that he will be use to us, or we may adopt him as a son." And they perceived not (what they were doing)! He was a darling to look at, and Pharaoh had apparently no son, but only a daughter, who afterwards irony. This is on the supposition that the Pharaoh was Totems In all life Providence so orders things that Evil is defeated by its own weapons. Not only is it defeated, but it actually, though unwittingly, advances the cause of Good! In non-religious language this is called the work of the Ironic Fates. If Thomas Hardy had not made Napoleon the Puppet of Fate in his "Dynasts", he could well have taken Pharaoh as an illustration of the Irony of Fate, or, as we should prefer to call it, the working of the Universal Plan of Allah.

Hazrat Shahr bin Haushab reported: I asked Hazrat Umm Salamah (May Allah be pleased with her)"O Mother of the Believers! Which supplication did the Messenger of Allah image001.jpg [SAWW](PBUH) make frequently when he was in your house?'' She said: "Messenger of Allah image001.jpg [SAWW](PBUH) supplicated frequently: 'Ya muqallibal-qulubi, thabbit qalbi 'ala dinika (O Controller of the hearts make my heart steadfast in Your religion).'' [At-Tirmidhi Hadith # 3522].  

Lesson : as mentioned above in Surah Al-Qasas Ayat 09 “And they perceive not (the result of that)”Steadfastness in religion is the conduct of great men, which cannot be acquired without the special Grace of Allah. There occur many turns in a person's life when he becomes slack or negligent in religious matters or when he deviates from the course prescribed by religion. This prayer has outstanding importance for such people who are faced with such a situation. They should recite this prayer very frequently. In fact they should make its recitation a permanent feature.

[28].Surah Al-Qasas [The Narration]: Ayat 8


৮. অত:পর ফেরাউন পরিবার মূসাকে কুড়িয়ে নিল, যাতে তিনি তাদের শত্রু ও দু:খের কারন হয়ে যান। নিশ্চয় ফেরাউন, হামান ও তাদের সৈন্যবাহিনী অপরাধী ছিল।

Ayat 8. Then the household of Firaun (Pharaoh) picked him Musa (PBUH) up, that he might become for them an enemy and a (cause of) grief. Verily! Firaun (Pharaoh), Haman and their hosts were sinners.

Tafseer of Surah Al-Qasas (The Narration) Ayat 8. Then the people of Pharaoh picked him up (from the river): (It was intended) that (Moses) should be to them an adversary and a cause of sorrow: for Pharaoh and Haman and (all) their hosts were men of sin. This was the Plan of Providence; that the wicked might cast a net round themselves by fostering the man who was to bring them to naught and be the instrument of their punishment-or (looking at it from the other side) that Moses might learn all the wisdom of the Egyptians in order to expose all that was hollow and wicked in it.

Hazrat Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allahimage001.jpg [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 : Beside 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.

[28].Surah Al-Qasas [The Narration]: Ayat 7



৭. আমি মূসা জননীকে আদেশ পাঠালাম যে, তাকে স্তন্য দান করতে থাক। অত:পর যখন তুমি তার সম্পর্কে বিপদের আশংকা কর, তখন তাকে দরিয়ায় নিক্ষেপ কর এবং ভয় করো না দু:খও করো না। আমি অবশ্যই তাকে তোমার কাছে ফিরিয়ে দেব এবং তাকে পয়গম্বরগনের একজন করবো।

Ayat 7. And We inspired the mother of Musa PBUH (Moses), (saying): "Suckle him [Musa PBUH (Moses)], but when you fear for him, then cast him into the river and fear not, nor grieve. Verily! We shall bring him back to you, and shall make him one of (Our) Messengers."

Tafseer of Surah Al-Qasas (The Narration) Ayat 7. So We sent this inspiration to the mother of Moses: "Suckle (thy child), but when thou hast fears about him, cast him into the river, but fear not nor grieve: for We shall restore him to thee, and We shall make him one of Our messengers." The Egyptian midwives had orders to kill Israelite babies. Moses was saved from them, and his mother nursed the infant at her breast herself. But when the danger of discovery was imminent, she put him into a chest or basket, and floated him on the river Nile . It flowed by the King's palace, and the chest with the baby was picked up, as related further on. The mother had no cause to fear or grieve afterwards, as the child grew up under her tender care and became afterwards one of the Prophets of Allah.

Hazrat Abu Musa (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: when the Messenger of Allah image001.jpg [SAWW](PBUH), feared mischief from a people, he would supplicate: "Allahumma inna naj`aluka fi nuhurihim, wa na`udhu bika min shururihim (O Allah! We ask You to face them, and seek Your Protection against their evil.''
[Abu Dawud Hadith # 1537 # and An-Nasa'i Hadith # 8631].   

Lesson : as mentioned above in Surah Al-Qasas Ayat 07 “when you fear for him, then cast him into the river and fear not, nor grieve. Verily! We shall bring him back to you, and shall make him one of (Our) Messengers." Allah's Help, we are told, is a protection against all perils. Through this prayer we seek His Help with the conviction that the deceptions and designs of the infidels will turn back upon them.

[28].Surah Al-Qasas [The Narration]: Ayat 05-06


৫. দেশে যাদেরকে দূর্বল করা হয়েছিল, আমার ইচ্ছা হলো তাদের প্রতি অনুগ্রহ করার, তাদেরকে নেতা করার এবং তাদেরকে দেশের উত্তরাধিকার করার।
৬. এবং তাদেরকে দেশের ক্ষমতায় আসীন করার এবং ফেরাউন, হামান ও তাদের সৈন্যবাহিনীকে তা দেখিয়ে দেয়ার, যা তারা সেই দূর্বল দলের তরফ থেকে আশংকা করত। 

Ayat 5. And We wished to do a favor to those who were weak (and oppressed) in the land, and to make them rulers and to make them the inheritors,
Ayat 6. And to establish them in the land, and We let Firaun (Pharaoh) and Haman and their hosts receive from them that which they feared.

Tafseer of Surah Al-Qasas (The Narration) Ayat 5 to 6. And We wished to be Gracious to those who were being depressed on the land. To make them leaders (in Faith) and make them heirs, What Pharaoh wished was to crush them. But Allah's Plan was to protect them as they were weak, and indeed to make them custodians and leaders in His Faith, and to give them in inheritance a land "flowing with milk and honey". Here they were established in authority for such time as they followed Allah's Law. As regards Pharaoh and his ministers and hosts, they were to be shown that they would suffer, at the hands of the Israelites, the very calamities against which they were so confidently taking precautions for themselves. To establish a firm place for them in the land, and to show Pharaoh, Haman, and their hosts, at their hands, the very things against which they were taking precautions. Haman was evidently Pharaoh's minister, not to be confounded with a Haman who is mentioned in the Old Testament (Esther 3:1), as a minister of Ahasuerus (Xerxes) King of Persia, the same who invaded Greece, and ruled from B.C. 485 to 464. Pharaoh was trying to kill the Israelites. Instead, the Plagues of Egypt, invoked by Moses, killed thousands of Egyptians because "they were steeped in arrogance,-a people given to sin." In pursuing the Israelites in their flight, Pharaoh and his army were themselves overwhelmed in the sea.
Anas (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: Messenger of Allah image001.jpg [SAWW](PBUH) said, "Help your brother, whether he is an oppressor or is oppressed". A man enquired: "O Messenger of Allah! I help him when he is oppressed, but how can I help him when he is an oppressor?'' He image001.jpg [SAWW](PBUH) said, "You can keep him from committing oppression. That will be your help to him".
[Al-Bukhari Volume 3, Book 43, Hadith Number 624].

Lesson : as mentioned above in Surah Al-Qasas Ayat 05. “And We wished to do a favor to those who were weak (and oppressed) in the land” This Hadith contains a very comprehensive injunction to eliminate disturbance and tyranny in the Muslim society. It not only ordains helping the oppressed but also encourages people endowed with moral courage to stop the oppressor's oppression. Doing so requires great courage and boldness, but Muslims would be able to do full justice to their duty of wishing well to their fellow Muslims when they develop the moral courage to stop the oppressor from tyranny, or at least protest against it verbally.

[28].Surah Al-Qasas [The Narration]: Ayat 4


০৪. ফেরাউন তার দেশে উদ্ধত হয়েছিল এবং সে দেশবাসীকে বিভিন্ন দলে বিভক্ত করে তাদের একটি দলকে দূর্বল করে দিয়েছিল। সে তাদের পুত্র সন্তানদেরকে হত্যা করতো এবং নারীদেরকে জীবিত রাখত। নিশ্চয় সে ছিল অনর্থ সৃষ্টিকারী।

Ayat 4. Verily, Firaun (Pharaoh) exalted himself in the land and made its people sects, weakening (oppressing) a group (i.e. Children of Israel) among them, killing their sons, and letting their females live. Verily, he was of the Mufsidun (i.e. those who commit great sins and crimes, oppressors, tyrants, etc.).

Tafseer of Surah Al-Qasas (The Narration) Ayat 4. Truly Pharaoh elated himself in the land and broke up its people into sections, depressing a small group among them: their sons he slew, but he kept alive their females: for he was indeed a maker of mischief. For a king or ruler to make invidious distinctions between his subjects, and specially to depress or oppress any particular class of his subjects, is a dereliction of his kingly duties, for which he is responsible to Allah. Pharaoh and his clique were intoxicated with pride of race and pride of material civilization, and grievously oppressed the Israelites. Pharaoh decreed that all sons born to his Israelite subjects should be killed, and the females kept alive for the pleasure of the Egyptians. Moses was saved in a wonderful way, as related further.
Hazrat Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allahimage001.jpg [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-Qasas Ayat 04 “Verily, he was of the Mufsidun (i.e. those who commit great sins and crimes, oppressors, tyrants, etc.)” 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.

[28].Surah Al-Qasas [The Narration]: Ayat 1-3


০১. ত্বা-সীন-মীম।
০২. এগুলো সুস্পষ্ট কিতাবের আয়াত।
০৩. আমি আপনার কাছে মূসা ও ফেরাউন বৃত্তান্ত সত্য সহকারে বর্ননা করছি ঈমানদার সম্প্রদায়ের জন্য।

Ayat 1. Tâ-Sîn-Mîm [These letters are one of the miracles of the Qur’an, and none but Allah (Alone) knows their meanings]
Ayat 2. These are Verses of the manifest Book (that makes clear truth from falsehood, good from evil, etc.).
Ayat 3. We recite to you some of the news of Musa PBUH (Moses) and Firaun (Pharaoh) in truth, for a people who believe (those who believe in this Qur’an, and in the Oneness of Allah).

Surah Al-Qasas (The Narration) is Makki and contain 88 Ayats, Tafseer of Ayat 1 to 3. Ta. Sin. Mim. This is a combination of three Abbreviated Letters, as to which, generally, This particular combination occurs here and at the head of S. 26, while the intervening Surah 27 has it in the syncopated form Ta’Sin. None of the explanatory conjectures which 1 have seen carries conviction for me. If the letters stand for Tur Sinin ( Mount Sinai ) and Musa (Moses), whose story fills a large part of this Surah, why is the letter Mi m omitted in S. 27. where the same meaning would apply? There is, however, one fact to which I should like to draw attention, we should pursue our researches, but we should never be dogmatic in such matters, as some Mysteries can never be solved by mere research. These are Verses of the Book that makes (things) clear. We rehearse to thee some of the story of Moses and Pharaoh in Truth, for people who believe. The part of the story of Moses told here is how Moses and his mother were guided in the child's infancy, that even as he grew up, he might be prepared for his high destiny; how in youth he trusted Allah in the most awkward situations and sought his help; how he fled into exile, and yet found love and support because of his well-doing; and how, when he was called to this mission, he received Allah's favor, which defeated all the plots of his enemies. Thus Allah's Plan works continuously in the web of events. Those who have faith will thus see the hand of Allah in everything and welcome the light that conies to them by Revelation. With such a Faith there is no room for Chance or blind Fate.
Hazrat Ibn Abbas (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah image001.jpg [SAWW](PBUH) said, "He who does not memorize any part from the Qur'an he is like the ruined house.''
[At-Tirmidhi Hadith # 2913]

Lesson : as mentioned above in Surah Al-Qasas Ayat 02 “These are Verses of the manifest Book (that makes clear truth from falsehood”This Hadith means that the heart of that Muslim is devoid of grace of spiritualism and Grace of Allah who does not remember by heart any portion of the Qur'an, in the same way as a deserted house is deprived of inhabitants and Blessings of Allah. What we learn from this is that every Muslim must remember some portion of the Qur'an so that he is safe from the admonition mentioned in this Hadith.

[27].Surah Al-Naml [The Ants]: Ayat 93



৯৩. এবং আরও বলুনসমস্ত প্রশংসা আল্লাহর। সত্বরই তিনি তাঁর নিদর্শনসমূহ তোমাদেরকে দেখাবেন। তখন তোমরা তা চিনতে পারবে। এবং তোমরা যা করসে সম্পর্কে আপনার পালনকর্তা গাফেল নন
Ayat 93. And say [(O Muhammad image001.jpg SAWW (PBUH) to these polytheists and pagans etc.]: "All the praises and thanks be to Allah. He will show you His Ayat (signs, in yourselves, and in the universe or punishments, etc.), and you shall recognize them. And your Lord is not unaware of what you do."

Tafseer of Surah Al Naml (The Ants) Ayat 93. And say: "Praise be to Allah, Who will soon show you His Signs, so that ye shall know them"; and thy Lord is not unmindful of all that ye do. In a few years after that, many wonderful things happened that removed the doubts of the doubters and confirmed the faith of the Believers. They showed how the logic of events proved the true mission of the holy Prophet. Other things some minds may not be able to grasp. But the logic of events is for all to see. Trials and tribulations, persecution and exile, and the patient endurance and constancy with which they were met by the Believers-all are known to Allah and will be credited to their spiritual account.

Hazrat Ibn Masud (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allahimage001.jpg [SAWW](PBUH) said, “Jannah is nearer to anyone of you than your shoe-lace, and so is the (Hell) Fire".  [Al-Bukhari].  

Lesson : as mentioned above in Surah Al-Naml Ayat 93 “He will show you His Ayat (signs, in yourselves, and in the universe or punishments, etc.), and you shall recognize them” Going to Jannah or Hell is the result of one's own actions, both are close to everyone. One will be admitted into Jannah if he does good deeds, and will be consigned to Hell if he does evil. After death, one's entitlement for Jannah or Hell will be decided.

[27].Surah Al-Naml [The Ants]: Ayat 91-92



৯১. আমি তো কেবল এই নগরীর প্রভুর এবাদত করতে আদিষ্ট হয়েছিযিনি একে সম্মানিত করেছেন। এবং সব কিছু তাঁরই। আমি আরও আদিষ্ট হয়েছি যেন আমি আজ্ঞাবহদের একজন হই
৯২. এবং যেন আমি কোরআন পাঠ করে শোনাই। পর যে ব্যক্তি সপথে চলেসে নিজের কল্যাণার্থেই সপথে চলে এবং কেউ পথভ্রষ্ট হলে আপনি বলে দিনআমি তো কেবল একজন ভীতি প্রদর্শনকারী

Ayat 91. I (Muhammad image001.jpg SAWW (PBUH) have been commanded only to worship the Lord of this city (Makkah), Him Who has sanctified it and His is everything. And I am commanded to be from among the Muslims (those who submit to Allah in Islam).
Ayat 92. And to recite the Quran, so whosoever receives guidance, receives it for the good of his own self, and whosoever goes astray, say (to him): "I am only one of the warners."

Tafseer of Surah Al Naml (The Ants) Ayat 91 & 92. For me, I the Messenger of Allah Muhammad PBUH have been commanded to serve the Lord of this city Makkah, Him Who has sanctified it and to Whom (belong) all things: and I am commanded to be of those who bow in Islam to Allah’s Will,-The Lord of this City. This was spoken in Makkah, say about the 5th year before the Hijrah, when the Holy Prophet PBUH and his adherents were being persecuted as enemies to the cult of Makkah. So far from being against the true spirit of the Holy City of Makkah, it was actually in furtherance of that spirit, which had been overlaid by the idolatries and abominations of the Pagan Quraish. They are told that the new Teaching is from the Lord of Makkah itself, the One True God, Who had sanctified it in the time of Abraham PBUH. Lest they should think that it was a local or tribal or narrow cult, it is added that He is not only Lord of this city, but Lord of the Worlds, "to Whom belong all things". It is a universal message: but how sad it would be if the Makkans, among whom it came first, were to reject it? And to rehearse the Qur´an: and if any accept guidance, they do it for the good of their own souls, and if any stray, say: "I am only a Warner". The duty of the Prophet and his adherents was, first, to accept Islam and become themselves shining examples of Allah's grace and mercy, as they in fact were, and secondly to preach that message and spread that Light to all around. It was not for them to force it on unwilling people: for any who rejected it would find their own spiritual loss in such rejection. But they must clearly warn them of the consequences.

Hazrat Abu Musa Al-Ashari (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah image001.jpg [SAWW](PBUH) said, "Read the Qur'an regularly. By the One in Whose Hand Muhammad's image001.jpg [SAWW](PBUH) soul is, it escapes from memory faster than a camel does from its tying ropes.''  [Al-Bukhari Book # 6 Chapter # 61 Hadith # 552].

Lesson : as mentioned above in Surah Al-Naml Ayat 92. “recite the Quran, so whosoever receives guidance, receives it for the good of his own self” To safeguard the Qur'an means to recite it regularly, because if one fails to do so, he tends to forget it quickly. In the absence of regular recitation, one is bound to forget it more quickly than a camel breaks loose bound with. The breaking loose by the camel to liberate itself is a simile for the quick process of forgetting.

[27].Surah Al-Naml [The Ants]: Ayat 89-90


৮৯. যে কেউ সৎকর্ম নিয়ে আসবেসে উকৃষ্টতর প্রতিদান পাবে এবং সেদিন তারা গুরুতর অস্থিরতা থেকে নিরাপদ থাকবে
৯০. এবং যে মন্দ কাজ নিয়ে আসবেতাকে অগ্নিতে অধঃমূখে নিক্ষেপ করা হবে। তোমরা যা করছিলেতারই প্রতিফল তোমরা পাবে

Ayat 89. Whoever brings a good deed (i.e. Belief in the Oneness of Allah along with every deed of righteousness), will have better than it’s worth, and they will be safe from the terror on that Day.
Ayat 90. And whoever brings an evil (deed) (i.e. Shirk polytheism, disbelief in the Oneness of Allah and every evil sinful deed), they will be cast down (prone) on their faces in the Fire. (And it will be said to them) "Are you being recompensed anything except what you used to do?"

Tafseer of Surah Al Naml (The Ants) Ayat 89 & 90. If any do good, good will (accrue) to them there from; and they will be secure from terror that Day. And if any do evil, their faces will be thrown headlong into the Fire: "Do ye receive a reward other than that which ye have earned by your deeds?" Headlong: It may be that the very things of which we were proudest, which we considered foremost in our present order of the world, will be the first to go into the Fire, as they are but the window-dressing (i.e., faces) of Evil. There will be no punishment except such as has been deserved by actual conduct in the present life of probation.

Hazrat Jarir bin `Abdullah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: We were sitting with the Messenger of Allah image001.jpg [SAWW](PBUH) when he looked at the full moon and observed, "You shall see your Rubb in the Hereafter as you are seeing this moon; and you will not feel the slightest inconvenience in seeing Him.''  [Al-Bukhari and Muslim].  

Lesson : as mentioned above in Surah Al-Naml Ayat 89 “Whoever brings a good deed (i.e. Belief in the Oneness of Allah along with every deed of righteousness), will have better than it’s worth” Just as when we witness the moon there is no problem, no rush or troublesome gathering of people and no pushing of one another, the pious will see Allah without any trouble or difficulty. How shall we see Him, we cannot describe this even by any instance or parable. In Surat Ash-Shura, Verse 11, it is said that there is nothing like Him. However, we cannot see Him in this world with these worldly eyes. The reason is that, as Imam Malik says, these eyes are just temporary and they cannot bear the Sight of Allah. This is why the research scholars claim that the Prophet image001.jpg [SAWW](PBUH) did not actually see Allah during his journey to the heavens; he only talked to Allah by way of Revelation. The saying by Hazrat Aishah (May Allah be pleased with her) also proves this contention. However, it would be possible to see Allah in Jannah as everything there will be eternal and indestructible. Similar will be the case with the sight and eyes which will be provided to us there. Such eyes would have the power to see Allah.

[27].Surah Al-Naml [The Ants]: Ayat 88


৮৮. তুমি পর্বতমালাকে দেখে অচল মনে করঅথচ সেদিন এগুলো মেঘমালার মত চলমান হবে। এটা আল্লাহর কারিগরীযিনি সবকিছুকে করেছেন সুসংহত। তোমরা যা কিছু করছতিনি তা অবগত আছেন

Ayat 88. And you will see the mountains and think them solid, but they shall pass away as the passing away of the clouds (on the Day of Resurrection). The Work of Allah, Who perfected all things, verily! He is Well-Acquainted with what you do.

Tafseer of Surah Al Naml (The Ants) Ayat 88. Thou sees the mountains and thinkest them firmly fixed: but they shall pass away as the clouds pass away: (such is) the artistry of Allah, who disposes of all things in perfect order: for he is well acquainted with all that ye do. This is so in the present phase of phenomenal things, both literally and figuratively. There seems nothing more firm or fixed or permanent than the "eternal hills": yet when the new order of things comes and the new World is brought into being, they will be as flimsy and insubstantial as clouds. So, in the revelation of things in the spiritual World, persons or things or ideas that seem so great and so firmly established now will pass away like mere fancies and give way to the Reality of Allah. Atqana. to arrange or dispose of things with art, or so as to obtain the most perfect results. The present phenomenal world and the Future that is to be, all have a definite object and purpose in the Plan of Allah, Who knows perfectly what we are, what we do, what we think, and what we need. Who can praise His artistry enough?

Hazrat Abu Umamah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: I heard the Messenger of Allah image001.jpg [SAWW](PBUH) saying, "Read the Qur'an, for it will come as an intercessor for its reciters on the Day of Resurrection.'' [Muslim Book 04, Chapter 133, Hadith # 1757].

Lesson : as mentioned above in Surah Al-Naml Ayat 88 “but they shall pass away as the passing away of the clouds (on the Day of Resurrection)” This Hadith is extremely important for the reason that it advises Muslims to live like family members. It says that one does not like to subject one's own son, brother, etc, to suppression, nor leaves him helpless in trouble, but helps him when he is in need of it, endeavors to relieve him of hardship and admonishes him when he does anything wrong. Almighty Allah is pleased with such behavior and gives him best reward for it in this world and the next.

[27].Surah Al-Naml [The Ants]: Ayat 87



৮৭. যেদিন সিঙ্গায় ফুকার দেওয়া হবেঅতঃপর আল্লাহ যাদেরকে ইচ্ছা করবেনতারা ব্যতীত নভোমন্ডলে ও ভূমন্ডলে যারা আছেতারা সবাই ভীতবিহ্বল হয়ে পড়বে এবং সকলেই তাঁর কাছে আসবে বিনীত অবস্থায়

Ayat 87. And (remember) the Day on which the Trumpet will be blown and all who are in the heavens and all who are on the earth, will be terrified except him whom Allah will (exempt). And all shall come to Him humbled.
Tafseer of Surah Al Naml (The Ants) Ayat 87. And the Day that the Trumpet will be sounded – then will be smitten with terror those who are in the heavens, and those who are on earth, except such as Allah will please (to exempt): and all shall come to His (Presence) as beings conscious of their lowliness. Arrogance will flee with Ignorance, and Self will see itself in its true place that of humility and lowliness-when the scales of ignorance fall from its eyes.

Hazrat Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allahimage001.jpg [SAWW](PBUH) said,  recited, "That Day it (the earth) will reveal its news (about all that happened over it of good or evil).''(99:4). Then he image001.jpg [SAWW](PBUH) inquired, "Do you know what its news are?'' He was told: "Allah and His Messenger know better". He said, "Its news is that it shall bear witness against every slave man and woman they did on its back. It will say: `You did this and this on such and such day.' Those will be its news.'' [At-Tirmidhi, Hadith # 2429]  

Lesson : as mentioned above in Surah Al-Naml Ayat 87. “And (remember) the Day on which the Trumpet will be blown” It has stern warning for people that however they may try to hide their sins from others, they will not be able to save themselves from Allah and His system of accountability. This Hadith makes evident the perfect Omnipotence of Allah by telling us that He will bestow power of speech on the earth and it will bear witness to the acts committed on its surface. It’s very easy for us the modern human to understand with technology at its peak, as Hadith says `"You did this and this on such and such day". recording of each action via CCTV and other source of surveillance Camera recording, each and every move made by us, the earth bear witness against us It will say: `You did this and this on such and such day.

[27].Surah Al-Naml [The Ants]: Ayat 69-70


৬৯. বলুনপৃথিবী পরিভ্রমণ কর এবং দেখ অপরাধীদের পরিণতি কি হয়েছে
৭০. তাদের কারণে আপনি দুঃখিত হবেন না এবং তারা যে চক্রান্ত করেছে এতে মনঃক্ষুন্ন হবেন না

Ayat 69. Say to them (O Muhammad image001.jpg SAWW PBUH) "Travel in the land and see how has been the end of the criminals (those who denied Allah’s Messengers and disobeyed Allah)."
Ayat 70. And grieve you not for them, nor be straitened (in distress) because of what they plot.

Tafseer of Surah Al Naml (The Ants) Ayat 69 to 70. Allah asked Prophet PBUH to Say: "Go ye through the earth and see what has been the end of those guilty (of sin)." Even if the Unbelievers are willing to take any mystic doctrine, they have only to observe what has actually happened on the earth, and they will see that evil always came to an evil end, and that Truth and righteousness ultimately won. But grieve not over them, nor distress thyself because of their plots. The righteous need not worry over the unjust. The plots of the unjust can never defeat or deflect the purpose of Allah.

Hazrat Ibn Abbas (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allahimage001.jpg [SAWW](PBUH) said,  "If anyone constantly seeks pardon (from Allah), Allah will appoint for him a way out of every distress and a relief from every anxiety, and will provide sustenance for him from where he expects not.''  [Abu Dawud Hadith # 1518].  

Lesson : as mentioned above in Surah Al-Naml Ayat 70. “And grieve you not for them, nor be straitened (in distress)” “By seeking forgiveness, a relationship with Allah is established between man and his Creator. So seeking forgiveness is a very good act. Allah likes those people who, after committing a sin, do not stick to it, but right away seek forgiveness for their sins from Allah. They weep and express sorrow before Allah.
