৩৩. যারা সত্য নিয়ে আগমন করছে এবং সত্যকে সত্য মেনে নিয়েছে; তারাই তো খোদাভীরু।
৩৪. তাদের জন্যে পালনকর্তার কাছে তাই রয়েছে, যা তারা চাইবে। এটা সৎকর্মীদের পুরস্কার।
৩৫. যাতে আল্লাহ তাদের মন্দ কর্মসমূহ মার্জনা করেন এবং তাদের উত্তম কর্মের পুরস্কার তাদেরকে দান করেন।
Ayat 33. And he (Muhammad [SAWW](PBUH) who has brought the truth (this Qur’an and Islamic Monotheism) and (those who) believed therein (i.e. the true believers of Islamic Monotheism), those areAl- Muttaqun (the pious and righteous persons).
Ayat 34. They shall have all that they will desire with their Lord. That is the reward of Muhsinun (good-doers).
Ayat 35. So that Allah may remit from them the evil of what they did and give them the reward, according to the best of what they used to do.
Tafseer of Surah Al Zumar Ayat 33. This is true of the Prophet, and all men of God and all righteous persons. Anyone who preaches the Truth and brings home Allah's Signs to men is performing the duty of a right and noble life. In this he confirms the teaching of all previous men of God. Anyone who supports and confirms such a teacher is also doing his duty and on the right way. Ayat 34. At that stage their wills will have been purified, and they could wish for nothing that they could not or should not have. And it will be as "in the presence of their Lord". If an earthly king gives a decoration, how much greater is the honor when the investiture takes place by the king himself personally? Ayat 35. So that Allah will turn off from them (even) the worst in their deeds and give them their reward according to the best of what they have done. The conjunction (Lam in Arabic, translated "so that") indicates here the results, not the purpose. Allah's Reward is so bounteous, that if we truly and sincerely put our will into His keeping, He will remove the consequences not only of our minor faults but of the worst of our sins, and judge us according to the very best of our deeds.
Hazrat 'Umar bin Al-Khattab (May Allah be pleased with him) said: Once we were sitting in the company of Messenger of Allah [SAWW](PBUH) when there appeared a man dressed in very white clothes and having extraordinary black hair. No signs of fatigue of journey appeared on him and he was known to none of us. He sat down facing the Prophet [SAWW](PBUH) leaning his knees against the knees of the Prophet (PBUH) and placing both of his palms over his two thighs and said, "O Muhammad (PBUH)! Tell me about Islam". He (PBUH)replied, "Islam is to testify that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah, and that Muhammad [SAWW](PBUH) is the Messenger of Allah; that you observe Salat (prayers), pay Zakat, observe Saum (fasting) of Ramadan and perform Hajj (pilgrimage) of the House, provided you have resources of making journey to it.'' He replied: "You have spoken the truth". We were surprised to see that he had asked him and confirmed the correctness of the answers. He then enquired: "Tell me about Iman". He [SAWW](PBUH) said. "It is to believe in Allah, and His Books, and His Messengers and the Last Day and that you believe in foreordainment, it’s bad and good consequences.'' He said, "You have spoken the truth.'' He then enquired: "Tell me about Ihsan.'' He [SAWW](PBUH) said, "It is to worship Allah as if you are seeing Him; and although you do not see Him, He sees you". He enquired: "Inform me about the Hour (i.e., the Day of Resurrection)". He [SAWW](PBUH) replied, "I have no more knowledge thereof than you". He said, "Inform me about some of its signs". He [SAWW](PBUH) said, "They are - that a bondswoman gives birth to her own master, and that you will find the barefooted, naked, poor shepherds competing one another in the construction of higher buildings". Then he departed. The Messenger of Allah kept silent for a while then he said to me, "O `Umar! Do you know who the questioner was?'' I replied, "Allah and His Messenger know better". The Prophet [SAWW](PBUH) said, "He was Jibril (Gabriel); he came to you to teach you your religion". [Muslim Book 001, Chapter 001, Hadith # 001]
Lesson: as mentioned above in Surah Al-Zumar Ayat 35. So that Allah may remit from them the evil of what they did and give them the reward, according to the best of what they used to do” This Hadith is known as 'Hadith Jibril'. It mentions the basics of Islam the details of which are known to every Muslim. Al-Qadr (Divine foreordainment) means that Allah already knows and had recorded everything that will happen until the Day of Resurrection. Now whatever happens is in accordance with that knowledge and writing. What is meant by its good and bad consequences can be illustrated by saying that tranquility; prosperity and abundance of crops come in the category of good consequences. Famine, calamities and troubles, etc., fall in the list as evil consequences. But we regard them good or bad according to our own understanding; otherwise, every action of Allah has some wisdom and expedience which are known to Him Alone.
