[46]. Surah Al-Ahqaf [The Curved Sand Hills]: Ayat 001-002


১. হা-মীম
২. এই কিতাব পরাক্রমশালী, প্রজ্ঞাময় আল্লাহর পক্ষ থেকে অবতীর্ণ 

Ayat 1. Hâ-Mîm. [These letters are one of the miracles of the Qur’an, and none but Allah (Alone) knows their meanings].
Ayat 2. The revelation of the Book (this Qur’an) is from Allah, the All-Mighty, the All-Wise.

Tafseer of Surah Al-Ahqaf Ayat 1. Ha Mim and 2. The revelation of the Book is from Allah the Exalted in Power, Full of Wisdom. This verse is the same as the second verse of the last Surah, but the theme is worked out differently in the two Surah. In S. 45 was shown how deniers of Revelation will at last be humbled until they can no longer deny its truth and power. In this Surah is shown how Truth and Revelation will be vindicated by patience and constancy (46:35).

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-Ahqaf Ayat 2. The revelation of the Book (this Qur’an) is from Allah)” 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.
