[51] Surah Adh-Dhariyat [The Winds that Scatter]: Ayat 031-037


৩১. ইব্রাহীম বললঃ হে প্রেরিত ফেরেশতাগণ, তোমাদের উদ্দেশ্য কি?  
৩২. তারা বললঃ আমরা এক অপরাধী সম্প্রদায়ের প্রতি প্রেরিত হয়েছি
৩৩. যাতে তাদের উপর মাটির ঢিলা নিক্ষেপ করি  
৩৪. সীমা অতিক্রম যারা ​​পাপ থেকে তোমার পালনকর্তা হিসাবে চিহ্নিত
৩৫. অতঃপর সেখানে যারা ঈমানদার ছিল, আমি তাদেরকে উদ্ধার করলাম
৩৬. এবং সেখানে একটি গৃহ ব্যতীত কোন মুসলমান আমি পাইনি
৩৭. যারা যন্ত্রণাদায়ক শাস্তিকে ভয় করে, আমি তাদের জন্যে সেখানে একটি নিদর্শন রেখেছি  

Ayat 31. [Ibrahim PBUH (Abraham)] said: "Then for what purpose you have come, O Messengers?"
Ayat 32. They said: "We have been sent to a people who are Mujrimun (polytheists, sinners, criminals, disbelievers in Allah);
Ayat 33. To send down upon them stones of baked clay.
Ayat 34. Marked by your Lord for the Musrifun (polytheists, criminals, sinners those who trespass Allah’s set limits in evil-doings by committing great sins).
Ayat 35. So We brought out from therein the believers.
Ayat 36. But We found not there any household of the Muslims except one [i.e. Lout (Lot) and his two daughters].
Ayat 37. And We have left there a sign (i.e. the place of the Dead Sea, well-known in Palestine) for those who fear the painful torment.

Tafseer of Surah Adh-Dhariyat Ayat 31 to 37. (Abraham PBUH) said: "And what, O ye Messengers, is your errand (now)?" 32. They said, "We have been sent to a people (deep) in sin; - 33.”To bring on, on them, (a shower of) stones of clay (brimstone), Cf. 11:82, and 7:84. The angels' errand of mercy to Abraham (to announce the succession of godly men in his line) was coupled with their errand of justice and punishment to the people of Lut, the people of Sodom and Gomorrah, who were deep in the most abominable and unnatural sins. So Allah's Mercy and Justice go hand in hand in all human affairs. Faith has nothing to fear, and wickedness has only to turn and repent, to obtain Allah's Mercy. 34. "Marked as from thy Lord for those who trespass beyond bounds. “Every crime has its due punishment as marked out in the decrees of Allah. 35. Then We evacuated those of the Believers who were there, The only just or righteous persons found in Sodom and Gomorrah (Cities of the Plain by the Dead Sea) were in the house of Lut, who was the Prophet sent to call them to repentance. He and his believing family and adherents were told to leave in due time, and the wicked were destroyed in a shower of brimstone. 36. But We found not there any just (Muslim) persons except in one house :( That was the house of Lut; and even there, his wife had no faith: she disobeyed the Command and perished: 11:81. 37. And We left there a Sign for such as fear the Grievous Penalty. The Grievous Penalty: that is, the Final Judgment. The destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah in this life is taken as the type of the Final Judgment. The vestiges can be seen—as a Sign and a Warning—in the sulphury plain round the Dead Sea: Cf. 15:79. 

Hazrat Ubadah bin As-Samit (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah image001.jpg [SAWW](PBUH) came out to inform us about the Night of Qadr but two Muslims were quarreling with each other. So, the Prophet said, "I came out to inform you about the Night of Qadr but such and such persons were quarreling, so the news about it had been taken away; yet that might be for your own good, so search for it on the 29th, 27th and 25th (of Ramadan).  [Al-Bukhari Volume 3, Book 32, Number 240].

Lesson: We learn from this Hadith that Suhur is a distinctive mark with which Allah has blessed the Muslim Ummah. We learn from this Hadith that Lailat-ul-Qadr occurs in any of the last three odd nights - 25th, 27th and 29th - of the last ten nights of Ramadan. Its exact date has not been revealed for the reason that people keep themselves awake for prayer for a larger number of nights. Had its date been fixed, people would have kept awake for prayer only on that night.
