[58] Surah Al-Mujadilah [The Woman Who Pleads]: Ayat 001


১. যে নারী তার স্বামীর বিষয়ে আপনার সাথে বাদানুবাদ করছে এবং অভিযোগ পেশ করছে আল্লাহর দরবারে, আল্লাহ তার কথা শুনেছেন।  আল্লাহ আপনাদের উভয়ের কথাবার্তা শুনেননিশ্চয় আল্লাহ সবকিছু শুনেন, সবকিছু দেখেন

Ayat 1. Indeed Allah has heard the statement of her (Khaulah bint Tha'labah) that disputes with you (O Muhammad image001.jpg [SAWW](PBUH) concerning her husband (Aus bin As­Samit), and complains to Allah. And Allah hears the argument between you both. Verily, Allah is All-Hearer, All-Seer.

Tafseer of Surah Al- Mujadilah Ayat 1. Allah has indeed heard (and accepted) the statement of the woman who pleads with thee concerning her husband and carries her complaint (in prayer) to Allah. and Allah (always) hears the arguments between both sides among you: for Allah hears and sees (all things). The immediate occasion was what happened to Khawlah bint Tha'labah, wife of Aws son of Samit. Though in Islam, he divorced her by an old Pagan custom: the formula was known as Zihar, and consisted of the words "Thou art to me as the back of my mother". This was held by Pagan custom to imply a divorce and freed the husband from any responsibility for conjugal duties, but did not leave the wife free to leave the husband's home, or to contract a second marriage. Such a custom was in any case degrading to a woman. It was particularly hard on Khawlah, for she loved her husband and pleaded that she had little children who she had no resources herself to support and whom under Zihar her husband was not bound to support. She urged her plea to the Prophet and in prayer to Allah. Her just plea was accepted, and this iniquitous custom, based on false words, was abolished. See also 33:4. For He is a just God, and will not allow human customs or pretenses to trample on the just rights of the weakest of His creatures. 

Hazrat Masruq (May Allah be pleased with him) said: We visited Hazrat Abdullah bin Masud (May Allah be pleased with him) and he said to us: O people! He who has the knowledge of any matter may convey it to the others. And he who has no knowledge, thereof, should say: "Allahu a`lam (Allah knows better).'' It is a part and parcel of knowledge that a man who has no knowledge of a matter should say: "Allah knows better.'' Allah said to His Prophet cid:image004.gif@01D23DB4.82FCD120[SAWW](PBUH): "Say (O Muhammad cid:image004.gif@01D23DB4.82FCD120[SAWW](PBUH)): `No wage do I ask of you for this (the Qur'an), nor am I one of the Mutakallifun (those who pretend and fabricate things which do not exist).''' (38:86)  [Al-Bukhari Volume 6, Book 60, Number 333].

Lesson: as mentioned above in Surah Al-Mujadilah Ayat 01. And Allah hears the argument between you both. Verily, Allah is All-Hearer, All-Seer" If one does not know about something, he should not say anything about it by way of conjecture, speculation and guesswork because this is also pretension which is forbidden. When any one is asked about anything which they do not know, they should confess their ignorance. Such a confession is also a mark of grace. In other words, they should abstain from giving verdict about any matter without making a thorough study and research on it.
