[41]. Ha-Mim_Al-Sajdah (Prostration) also known as Surah Fussilat [They Are Explained in Detail]: Ayat 009

৯. বলুন, তোমরা কি সে সত্তাকে অস্বীকার কর যিনি পৃথিবী সৃষ্টি করেছেন দু’দিনে এবং তোমরা কি তাঁর সমকক্ষ স্থীর কর? তিনি তো সমগ্র বিশ্বের পালনকর্তা।

Ayat 9. Say (O Muhammad  [SAWW](PBUH, : "Do you verily disbelieve in Allah Who created the earth in two Days and you set up rivals (in worship) with Him? That is the Lord of the 'Alamin (mankind, jinns and all that exists).

Tafseer of Surah Ha-Mim Al-Sajdah (or Surah Fussilat) Ayat 9. Say: Is it that ye deny Him Who created the earth in two Days? And do ye join equals with Him? He is the Lord of (all) the Worlds. This is a difficult passage, describing the primal creation of our physical earth and the physical heavens around us. If we count the two Days mentioned in this verse, the four Days, mentioned in verse 10, and the two Days mentioned in verse 12, we get a total of eight Days, while in many passages the creation is stated to have taken place in six Days: see 7:54, and 32:4. The Commentators understand the "four Days" in verse 10 to include the two Days in verse 9, so that the total for the universe comes to six Days. This is reasonable, because the processes described in verses 9 and 10 form really one series. In the one case it is the creation of the formless matter of the earth; in the other case it is the gradual evolution of the form of the earth, its mountains and seas, and its animal and vegetable life, with the "nourishment in due proportion", proper to each. Cf. also 15:19 -20.

Hazrat Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah [SAWW](PBUH) said,  "The most truthful statement a poet has ever made is the saying of Labid: Everything besides Allah is vain.''  [Al-Bukhari Book 05, Chapter 58, Hadith # 181]

Lesson: as mentioned above in Surah Ha-Mim_Al-Sajdah 09. “Do you verily disbelieve in Allah Who created the earth in two Days and you set up rivals (in worship) with Him?” 1. We learn from this Hadith that to compose, recite and quote good verses, as evidence, is permissible. 2. The Verse of Labid, quoted in this Hadith, is the same effect as the verdict of the Noble Qur'an: "Whatsoever is on (the earth) will perish." (55:26). This Verse accepts the eternity of the Afterlife and the transitory nature of this world.
