[41]. Ha-Mim_Al-Sajdah (Prostration) also known as Surah Fussilat [They Are Explained in Detail]: Ayat 001-002


১. হা-মীম
২. এটা অবতীর্ণ পরম করুণাময়, দয়ালুর পক্ষ থেকে 

Ayat 1. Ha-Mim. [These letters are one of the miracles of the Qur’an, and none but Allah (Alone) knows their meanings.]
Ayat  2. A revelation from Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful.

Tafseer of Surah Ha-Mim Al-Sajdah (or Surah Fussilat) Ayat 1. Ha Mim: These are abbreviated letters, the Muqatta'at, The particular letters, Ha Mim, are found prefixed to this Surah, and Surah number 40. Much has been written about the meaning of these letters, but most of it is pure conjecture. Some commentators are content to recognize them as some mystic symbols of which it is unprofitable to discuss the meaning by more verbal logic. Ayat 2. A Revelation from (Allah), Most Gracious, Most Merciful; In the last Surah (40:2-3) the revelation was described with reference to some of the qualities of Allah from Whom it came. Here it is described mainly with reference to its subject matter. (1) It brings the Message of Grace and Mercy; (2) it is not merely a book of Dark Sayings, but everything is explained clearly and from various points of view; (3) it is in Arabic, the language of the people among whom it was first promulgated, and therefore easily intelligible to them if they take the trouble to understand; and (4) it opens the way to Forgiveness through Repentance and gives warning of all spiritual Dangers.

Hazrat Aishah (May Allah be pleased with her) reported: The Messenger of Allah cid:image004.gif@01D0E904.79013E50[SAWW](PBUH) said, "Allah is Forbearer and He loves forbearance, and rewards for forbearance while He does not reward severity, and does not give for anything besides it (forbearance).''  [Muslim Book 32, Chapter 21, Hadith # 6273]

Lesson: as mentioned above in Surah Ha-Mim_Al-Sajdah Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful” Mildness is the opposite of harshness. Allah enjoins softness and dislikes stiffness in human relations. Allah assures of reward for gentle behavior in society, not for unkindness or anything like that. However, inflexibility is preferred to flexibility when there arises a question of religious matters and the limits set by Allah.
