13 TAFSEER SURAH ISRAA
THE 7 REASONS ALLAH REVEALED THE QUR’AN IN STAGES
08 June 2013 (Morning Dars)
AYAH 103:
فَأَرَادَ
أَن يَسْتَفِزَّهُم مِّنَ الْأَرْضِ فَأَغْرَقْنَاهُ وَمَن مَّعَهُ جَمِيعًا
So he resolved to turn them out of the land (of Egypt). But We drowned him and all who were with him. (Al-Isra 17:103)
-Allah (سبحانه وتعالىٰ) said He chose to drown the pharaoh and
those with him.
-The army of the
pharaoh was with him.
-If you join a kaafir
army, on the Day of Resurrection you will be resurrected as a kaafir.
-This is because you
gave your bay’ah to a kaafir army.
-The evidence for this
is surah 28:8.
فَالْتَقَطَهُ
آلُ فِرْعَوْنَ لِيَكُونَ لَهُمْ عَدُوًّا وَحَزَنًا ۗ إِنَّ فِرْعَوْنَ
وَهَامَانَ وَجُنُودَهُمَا كَانُوا خَاطِئِينَفَالْتَقَطَهُ آلُ فِرْعَوْنَ
لِيَكُونَ لَهُمْ عَدُوًّا وَحَزَنًا ۗ إِنَّ فِرْعَوْنَ وَهَامَانَ
وَجُنُودَهُمَا كَانُوا خَاطِئِينَ
Then the household of
Fir’aun (Pharaoh) picked him up, that he might become for them an enemy and a
(cause of) grief. Verily! Fir’aun (Pharaoh), Haman and their hosts were
sinners. (Al-Qasas 28:8)
-Allah (سبحانه وتعالىٰ) gave the pharaoh and his army the same
ruling.
-Allah (سبحانه وتعالىٰ) will never accept the excuse that you
were just following orders.
-The other evidence
for this is surah 4:76.
الَّذِينَ
آمَنُوا يُقَاتِلُونَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ ۖ وَالَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا يُقَاتِلُونَ
فِي سَبِيلِ الطَّاغُوتِ فَقَاتِلُوا أَوْلِيَاءَ الشَّيْطَانِ ۖ إِنَّ كَيْدَ
الشَّيْطَانِ كَانَ ضَعِيفًا
Those who believe,
fight in the Cause of Allah, and those who disbelieve, fight in the cause of
Taghut (Satan, etc.). So fight you against the friends of Shaitan (Satan); Ever
feeble indeed is the plot of Shaitan (Satan). (An-Nisa 4:76)
-This is the evidence
used by the sincere scholars to prove to you that the only army you can join is
the army of the mujahideen.
-If you join the
Pakistani army or the American army and you die, you die as a
-kaafir because you
gave your bay’ah to a kaafir army.
-The third evidence
for this is surah 85:4.
قُتِلَ
أَصْحَابُ الْأُخْدُودِ
Cursed were the people
of the ditch (the story of the Boy and the King). (Al-Buruj 85:4)
-The king dug a ditch,
put wood in the ditch and ignited the wood.
-The king then dumped
the believers in the ditch.
-Allah put the same
hukm on the king and his soldiers.
-The Germans who were
following Adolf Hitler were trying to use the excuse that they were just
following orders in the Nuremberg trials.
-This excuse wasn’t
accepted and they were locked up in prison for life.
-Allah won’t accept
this excuse that you were following orders on the Day of Judgments.
-You have to run away
from a dictator.
-Allah’s earth is
spacious.
-Muslim women who were
being forced to marry people they don’t like ran away because their parents
wanted them to marry Barelvis.
-A lot of these Muslim
parents are evil; they’ll marry you to grave worshippers
AYAH 104:
وَقُلْنَا
مِن بَعْدِهِ لِبَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ اسْكُنُوا الْأَرْضَ فَإِذَا جَاءَ وَعْدُ
الْآخِرَةِ جِئْنَا بِكُمْ لَفِيفًا
And We said to the
Children of Israel after him: “Dwell in the land, then, when the final and the
last promise comes near [i.e. the Day of Resurrection or the descent of Christ
[‘Iesa (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary) on the earth]. We shall bring you
altogether as mixed crowd (gathered out of various nations). [Tafsir
Al-Qurtubi, Vol. 10, Page 338] [Al
Israa 17:104)
-Who are the children
of Israel in ayah 104?
-Jacob is Israel so
the children of Israel are the children of Jacob.
-The return of Jesus
shouldn’t be a matter you differ on because it is mentioned in the Quran.
وَإِنَّهُ
لَعِلْمٌ لِّلسَّاعَةِ فَلَا تَمْتَرُنَّ بِهَا وَاتَّبِعُونِ ۚ هَٰذَا صِرَاطٌ
مُّسْتَقِيمٌ
And he [‘Iesa (Jesus),
son of Maryam (Mary)] shall be a known sign for (the coming of) the Hour (Day
of Resurrection) [i.e. ‘Iesa’s (Jesus) descent on the earth]. Therefore have no
doubt concerning it (i.e. the Day of Resurrection). And follow Me (Allah) (i.e.
be obedient to Allah and do what He orders you to do, O mankind)! This is the
Straight Path (of Islamic Monotheism, leading to Allah and to His Paradise). (Az-Zukhruf 43:61)
-Allah said that the
coming of Jesus is a sign before Judgments Day.
-It is not appropriate
for you to doubt the coming of Jesus because it is mentioned in the Quran.
And it would at this
very time that Allah would send Christ, son of Mary, and he will descend at the
white minaret in the eastern side of Damascus wearing two garments lightly dyed
with saffron and placing his hands on the wings of two Angels. When he would
lower his head, there would fall beads of perspiration from his head, and when
he would raise it up, beads like pearls would scatter from it [Sahih Muslim (4/2250-2255) No. 2937]
Abu Hurayrah (RA)
said: The Messenger of Allah ((ﷺ)) said:
“The Hour will not begin until the son of Maryam descends among you as a just
ruler. He will break the cross, kill the pigs and abolish the jizyah, and money
will become abundant until no one will accept it.”[Al-Bukhari (2222) and Muslim
(155)]
-Jesus is coming to
kill the swine, break the cross, to kill the Gog and Magog, to kill the dajjal
and to abolish the jizya
-He will not come back
as a prophet because there is no prophet after Muhammad
-He will come back as
an ordinary Muslim.
-He will pray salah
behind another Muslim.
-What is taking place
in Syria right now is a purge because this is where Jesus will return.
-A purge is also
needed in Iran, Iraq and Lebanon.
-This is because Shias
are worse kuffaar than the Jews and the Christians.
-Allah said in ayah
104 that you will be gathered together “as mixed crowd (gathered out of various
nations)”.
-The tafseer of the
ayah is that on Judgments Day Muslims will be with Muslims, Christians will be
with Christians, Hindus will be with Hindus, etc.
-You shall be gathered
with the people who are of the same religion as you.
-The people of Noah
will say that nobody warned them about shirk.
-Noah gave them dawah
for 950 years.
-They will deny those
950 years.
-They will say, “no
prophet came to warn us about shirk”.
-Allah will ask Noah
if he delivered the message. Noah will reply yes.
-Allah will ask Noah
if he has any witnesses.
-He will reply that
the ummah of Muhammad are his witnesses.
-The ummah of Muhammad
will say that that their evidence that Noah warned them against shirk is that
they read it in the Quran.
-The people of Noah
will be guilty as charged.
-You shall testify
against all the previous nations on the day of judgement.
-The homosexuals of
Sodom and Gomorrah will say that they were not warned against homosexuality.
The Muslims will say that they read it in
the Quran that Lut warned the homosexuals of Sodom and Gomorrah against
homosexuality.
وَكَذَٰلِكَ
جَعَلْنَاكُمْ أُمَّةً وَسَطًا لِّتَكُونُوا شُهَدَاءَ عَلَى النَّاسِ وَيَكُونَ
الرَّسُولُ عَلَيْكُمْ شَهِيدًا ۗ وَمَا جَعَلْنَا الْقِبْلَةَ الَّتِي كُنتَ
عَلَيْهَا إِلَّا لِنَعْلَمَ مَن يَتَّبِعُ الرَّسُولَ مِمَّن
Thus We have made you
[true Muslims – real believers of Islamic Monotheism, true followers of Prophet
Muhammad and his Sunnah (legal ways)], a Wasat (just) (and the best) nation,
that you be witnesses over mankind and the Messenger (Muhammad) be a witness
over you…(Al-Baqarah 2:143)
-On the day of Judgments
you will be in mixed crowds.
-Allah spoke about
this in surah 99:6.
يَوْمَئِذٍ
يَصْدُرُ النَّاسُ أَشْتَاتًا لِّيُرَوْا أَعْمَالَهُمْيَوْمَئِذٍ يَصْدُرُ
النَّاسُ أَشْتَاتًا لِّيُرَوْا أَعْمَالَهُمْ
That Day mankind will
proceed in scattered groups that they may be shown their deeds.(Az-Zalzalah
99:6)
-Man will come out in
crowds to look at their deeds.
-Allah spoke about how
people will come out of their graves in surah 36:51.
وَنُفِخَ
فِي الصُّورِ فَإِذَا هُم مِّنَ الْأَجْدَاثِ إِلَىٰ رَبِّهِمْ يَنسِلُونَ
And the Trumpet will
be blown (i.e. the second blowing) and behold! From the graves they will come
out quickly to their Lord. (Ya-Sin
36:51)
-Every prophet will
have a lake-fount on the Day of Judgments.
-A large multitude of
people will drink from the lake-fount of some prophets.
-Different Prophets
will have different numbers of people drinking from their fount.
-Some prophets will
have no one to drink from their fount.
-In other words, no
one took shahadah due to the dawah of this prophet.
-On Judgments Day
Allah shall treat you the way you treat Allah in the dunya.
-Those of you who go
backward and forward in the deen, when you are crossing the siraat Allah will
give you light and then take away your light.
-Those kuffaar who
turned a blind eye towards Allah’s revelation, Allah shall raise them blind on
the Day of Judgments.
وَمَنْ
أَعْرَضَ عَن ذِكْرِي فَإِنَّ لَهُ مَعِيشَةً ضَنكًا وَنَحْشُرُهُ يَوْمَ
الْقِيَامَةِ أَعْمَىٰ
But whosoever turns
away from My Reminder (i.e. neither believes in this Qur’an nor acts on its
orders, etc.) verily, for him is a life of hardship, and We shall raise him up
blind on the Day of Resurrection.” (Ta-Ha
20:124)
AYAH 105:
وَبِالْحَقِّ
أَنزَلْنَاهُ وَبِالْحَقِّ نَزَلَ ۗ وَمَا أَرْسَلْنَاكَ إِلَّا مُبَشِّرًا
وَنَذِيرًا
And with truth We have
sent it down (i.e. the Qur’an), and with truth it has descended. And We have
sent you (O Muhammad SAW) as nothing but a bearer of glad tidings (of Paradise,
for those who follow your Message of Islamic Monotheism), and a Warner (of
Hell-fire for those who refuse to follow your Message of Islamic Monotheism). (Al-Isra 17:105)
-When Allah says, “with
truth it has descended” it means there is no
crookedness in the Quranand it has no human interference.
-The second tafseer is
that the Quran has no inconsistencies, no discrepancies and no incongruities.
This is because the Quran
is the haq and the haq doesn’t contradict itself.
The part of ayah 105
which says,
“And We have sent you
(O Muhammad (ﷺ)) as
nothing but a bearer of glad tidings” [Al israa 17:105
Coincides with Surah 7:188
قُل
لَّا أَمْلِكُ لِنَفْسِي نَفْعًا وَلَا ضَرًّا إِلَّا مَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ ۚ وَلَوْ
كُنتُ أَعْلَمُ الْغَيْبَ لَاسْتَكْثَرْتُ مِنَ الْخَيْرِ وَمَا مَسَّنِيَ
السُّوءُ ۚ إِنْ أَنَا إِلَّا نَذِيرٌ وَبَشِيرٌ لِّقَوْمٍ يُؤْمِنُونَ
Say (O Muhammad (ﷺ)) : “I
possess no power of benefit or hurt to myself except as Allah wills. If I had
the knowledge of the Ghaib (unseen), I should have secured for myself an
abundance of wealth, and no evil should have touched me. I am but a warner, and
a bringer of glad tidings unto people who believe.” (Al-A’raf 7:188)
-One ayah of the Quran
can be used to explain another ayah of the Quran.
-That is the nature of
the Quran.
-In regards to the
Quran having no discrepancies, Allah puts forward a challenge in surah 4:82.
أَفَلَا
يَتَدَبَّرُونَ الْقُرْآنَ ۚ وَلَوْ كَانَ مِنْ عِندِ غَيْرِ اللَّهِ لَوَجَدُوا
فِيهِ اخْتِلَافًا كَثِيرًا
Do they not then consider the Qur’an
carefully? Had it been from other than Allah, they would surely have found
therein much contradiction. (An-Nisa
4:82)
-The kuffaar establish
websites to prove that there are contradictions in the Quran.
-These kuffaar read
the Quran in English and they claim they have found contradictions in the
Quran.
-Kuffaar cannot give
tafseer; they’ll give a tafseer to suit their evil and corrupted desires.
-Surah 17:105 is the
evidence that Muhammad was a bringer of glad tidings and a warner to those who
reject faith.
-The Quran has no
crookedness in order that it gives people taqwa.
قُرْآنًا
عَرَبِيًّا غَيْرَ ذِي عِوَجٍ لَّعَلَّهُمْ يَتَّقُونَ
An Arabic Qur’an,
without any crookedness (therein) in order that they may avoid all evil which
Allah has ordered them to avoid, fear Him and keep their duty to Him. (Az-Zumar 39:28)
الْحَمْدُ
لِلَّهِ الَّذِي أَنزَلَ عَلَىٰ عَبْدِهِ الْكِتَابَ وَلَمْ يَجْعَل لَّهُ عِوَجًا
ۜ
All the praises and
thanks be to Allah, Who has sent down to His slave (Muhammad (ﷺ)) the
Book (the Qur’an), and has not placed therein any crookedness. (Al-Kahf 18:1)
This is a challenge; can you find any
crookedness in the Quran?
AYAH 106:
وَقُرْآنًا
فَرَقْنَاهُ لِتَقْرَأَهُ عَلَى النَّاسِ عَلَىٰ مُكْثٍ وَنَزَّلْنَاهُ تَنزِيلًا
And (it is) a Qur’an
which We have divided (into parts), in order that you might recite it to men at
intervals. And We have revealed it by stages. (in 23 years).
(Al-Isra 17:106)
Why did Allah reveal
the Quran in piece meal?
The surahs of the
Quran are of two types.
They are Makki and
Madani.
Makki are the surahs
that came down in Makkah; Madani are the surahs that came down in Madina.
The surahs of Makkah
invite to Allah.
Surah Ikhlas is a
Makki surah.
The surahs of Madina
invite to shairah.
This is called the
Manhaj and the Wisdom of Allah (سبحانه
وتعالىٰ).
When you are living in
darul harb, Europe for example, you are supposed to invite the infidels to
Allah (سبحانه وتعالىٰ).
You are supposed to
follow the Manhaj of Allah (سبحانه
وتعالىٰ).
Al Muhajiroon is wrong
for calling people in darul harb to sharia.
When you are a group
with no scholar you are like a headless chicken.
Narrated By Ibn Abbas:
When the Prophet (ﷺ) sent Muadh to Yemen, he said to him, “You are
going to a nation from the people of the Scripture, so let the first thing to
which you will invite them, be the Tauhid of Allah. If they learn that, tell
them that Allah has enjoined on them, five prayers to be offered in one day and
one night. And if they pray, tell them that Allah has enjoined on them Zakat of
their properties and it is to be taken from the rich among them and given to
the poor. And if they agree to that, then take from them Zakat but avoid the
best property of the people.” [Sahih
Bukhari, Vol 9, Book 93, Hadith 469]
-Allah (سبحانه وتعالىٰ) divided the Quran in sections because
some parts were suitable for Makkah, darul harb, and some parts were suitable
for Madinah, darul Islam.
-It’s called different
strokes for different folks.
WHY DID ALLAH REVEAL THE QURAN IN STAGES?
-There are seven
reasons why Allah (سبحانه وتعالىٰ) revealed the Quran in stages.
REASON ONE – TO MAKE IT EASY FOR US TO
MEMORISE
وَلَقَدْ
يَسَّرْنَا الْقُرْآنَ لِلذِّكْرِ فَهَلْ مِن مُّدَّكِرٍ
And We have indeed
made the Qur’an easy to understand and remember, then is there any that will
remember (or receive admonition)? (Al-Qamar
54:17)
-By revealing the
Quran in stages over a period of 23 years it made it easier for the sahabas to
memorize.
REASON TWO – TO MAKE IT EASY FOR THEM TO
UNDERSTAND AND PRACTICE IT
Alif-Lam-Ra. [These letters are one of the
miracles of the Qur’an, and none but Allah (Alone) knows their meanings]. These
are the Verses of the Clear Book (the Qur’an that makes clear the legal and
illegal things, legal laws, guidance and a blessing). (Yusuf 12:1)
إِنَّا
أَنزَلْنَاهُ قُرْآنًا عَرَبِيًّا لَّعَلَّكُمْ تَعْقِلُونَ
Verily, We have sent it down as an Arabic
Qur’an in order that you may understand. (Yusuf 12:2)
REASON THREE – TO CORRECT THE PROPHET
When the Prophet made
a mistake, Allah (سبحانه وتعالىٰ) corrected the Prophet (ﷺ) with the Quran.
وَلَا
تُصَلِّ عَلَىٰ أَحَدٍ مِّنْهُم مَّاتَ أَبَدًا وَلَا تَقُمْ عَلَىٰ قَبْرِهِ ۖ
إِنَّهُمْ كَفَرُوا بِاللَّهِ وَرَسُولِهِ وَمَاتُوا وَهُمْ فَاسِقُونَ
And never (O Muhammad (ﷺ)) pray
(funeral prayer) for any of them (hypocrites) who dies, nor stand at his grave.
Certainly they disbelieved in Allah and His Messenger, and died while they were
Fasiqun (rebellious, – disobedient to Allah and His Messenger (ﷺ)). (At-Tawbah 9:84)
-When the Prophet (ﷺ) prayed
over the munafiq, Abdullah ibn Ubayy, it was a mistake that Allah (سبحانه وتعالىٰ) corrected using the Quran.
يَا
أَيُّهَا النَّبِيُّ لِمَ تُحَرِّمُ مَا أَحَلَّ اللَّهُ لَكَ ۖ تَبْتَغِي
مَرْضَاتَ أَزْوَاجِكَ ۚ وَاللَّهُ غَفُورٌ رَّحِيمٌ
O Prophet! Why do you
ban (for yourself) that which Allah has made lawful to you, seeking to please
your wives? And Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful. (At-Tahrim 66:1)
-When the prophet said
he won’t drink honey anymore, Allah (سبحانه
وتعالىٰ) corrected him in
surah 66:1
-If you quote surah
80:1, the Shiites will say you are wahabi and you are slandering the Prophet.
عَبَسَ
وَتَوَلَّىٰ
(The Prophet (ﷺ)
frowned and turned away,(‘Abasa 80:1)
-They will say that
Abu Jahl frowned, not the Prophet.
-This is why you have
to quote surah 66:1; this is the knockout punch for the Shiites.
REASON FOUR – TO ANSWER QUESTIONS
-Sometimes the sahabas
would approach the Prophet (ﷺ) and ask him questions about alcohol, orphans,
menstruation, etc.
-Allah (سبحانه وتعالىٰ) revealed surah 2:222 about menstruation.
وَيَسْأَلُونَكَ
عَنِ الْمَحِيضِ ۖ قُلْ هُوَ أَذًى فَاعْتَزِلُوا النِّسَاءَ فِي الْمَحِيضِ ۖ
وَلَا تَقْرَبُوهُنَّ حَتَّىٰ يَطْهُرْنَ ۖ فَإِذَا تَطَهَّرْنَ فَأْتُوهُنَّ مِنْ
حَيْثُ أَمَرَكُمُ اللَّهُ ۚ إِنَّ اللَّهَ يُحِبُّ التَّوَّابِينَ وَيُحِبُّ
الْمُتَطَهِّرِينَ
They ask you
concerning menstruation. Say: that is an Adha (a harmful thing for a husband to
have a sexual intercourse with his wife while she is having her menses),
therefore keep away from women during menses and go not unto them till they
have purified (from menses and have taken a bath). And when they have purified
themselves, then go in unto them as Allah has ordained for you (go in unto them
in any manner as long as it is in their vagina). Truly, Allah loves those who
turn unto Him in repentance and loves those who purify themselves (by taking a
bath and cleaning and washing thoroughly their private parts, bodies, for their
prayers, etc.). (Al-Baqarah
2:222)
-It is haraam to have
intercourse with a menstruating woman until the menstruation stops and she
takes ghusl.
-This is sharia law.
-The Quran was
revealed in stages to answer burning questions that the sahabas put to the
Prophet (ﷺ).
-They used to ask
questions because they wanted to practice Islam properly.
REASON 5 – TO SOLVE A DILEMMA THE PROPHET
WAS FACING
-When the hypocrites
accused Aisha of having an affair, the Prophet didn’t know what to believe.
-The Prophet (ﷺ) started to behave cold towards Aisha and she
didn’t have a clue why.
-The Prophet (ﷺ) asked her to make taubah if she had an affair.
-Aisha asked for
permission to stay with her mother because Aisha needed comforting.
-Allah (سبحانه وتعالىٰ) revealed surah 24:11 and said that what
the hypocrites said about Aisha was an ifk (a big lie).
إِنَّ
الَّذِينَ جَاءُوا بِالْإِفْكِ عُصْبَةٌ مِّنكُمْ ۚ لَا تَحْسَبُوهُ شَرًّا لَّكُم
ۖ بَلْ هُوَ خَيْرٌ لَّكُمْ ۚ لِكُلِّ امْرِئٍ مِّنْهُم مَّا اكْتَسَبَ مِنَ
الْإِثْمِ ۚ وَالَّذِي تَوَلَّىٰ كِبْرَهُ مِنْهُمْ لَهُ عَذَابٌ عَظِيمٌ
Verily! Those who
brought forth the slander (against ‘Aisha the wife of the Prophet (ﷺ)) are a
group among you. Consider it not a bad thing for you. Nay, it is good for you.
Unto every man among them will be paid that which he had earned of the sin, and
as for him among them who had the greater share therein, his will be a great
torment. (An-Nur 24:11)
-This is one of the
reasons why Allah revealed the Quran in stages; to solve a dilemma the Prophet
was facing.
-Another example of a
dilemma that the Prophet faced was in regards to the tabuk expedition when
three sahabas didn’t go.
-They were Ka’b ibn
Malik, Hilal ibn Umayyah and Maraarah ibn Rabi.
-The Prophet didn’t
know what to do with them.
-The Prophet didn’t
give them salam for 51 days
-When the Prophet
excommunicated them, Christians even wrote them letters to join their false
religion.
Allah (سبحانه وتعالىٰ) revealed that Allah had forgiven them in
surah 9:118
وَعَلَى
الثَّلَاثَةِ الَّذِينَ خُلِّفُوا حَتَّىٰ إِذَا ضَاقَتْ عَلَيْهِمُ الْأَرْضُ
بِمَا رَحُبَتْ وَضَاقَتْ عَلَيْهِمْ أَنفُسُهُمْ وَظَنُّوا أَن لَّا مَلْجَأَ
مِنَ اللَّهِ إِلَّا إِلَيْهِ ثُمَّ تَابَ عَلَيْهِمْ لِيَتُوبُوا ۚ إِنَّ اللَّهَ
هُوَ التَّوَّابُ الرَّحِيمُ
And (He did forgive
also) the three [who did not join the Tabuk expedition (whom the Prophet (ﷺ)] left
(i.e. he did not give his judgement in their case, and their case was suspended
for Allah’s Decision) till for them the earth, vast as it is, was straitened
and their own selves were straitened to them, and they perceived that there is
no fleeing from Allah, and no refuge but with Him. Then, He accepted their
repentance, that they might repent (unto Him). Verily, Allah is the One Who
accepts repentance, Most Merciful. (At-Tawbah
9:118)
-The Prophet didn’t
know what to do; he had to wait for divine revelation.
REASON SIX – TO TIP OFF THE PROPHET ABOUT
AN IMMINENT SCENARIO
The evidence for this is surah 48:11
سَيَقُولُ
لَكَ الْمُخَلَّفُونَ مِنَ الْأَعْرَابِ شَغَلَتْنَا أَمْوَالُنَا وَأَهْلُونَا
فَاسْتَغْفِرْ لَنَا ۚ يَقُولُونَ بِأَلْسِنَتِهِم مَّا لَيْسَ فِي قُلُوبِهِمْ ۚ
قُلْ فَمَن يَمْلِكُ لَكُم مِّنَ اللَّهِ شَيْئًا إِنْ أَرَادَ بِكُمْ ضَرًّا أَوْ
أَرَادَ بِكُمْ نَفْعًا ۚ بَلْ كَانَ اللَّهُ بِمَا تَعْمَلُونَ خَبِيرًا
Those of the Bedouins
who lagged behind will say to you: “Our possessions and our families occupied
us, so ask forgiveness for us.” They say with their tongues what is not in
their hearts. Say: “Who then has any power at all (to intervene) on your behalf
with Allah, if He intends you hurt or intends you benefit? Nay, but Allah is
Ever All-Aware of what you do. (Al-Fath
48:11)
-When Allah (سبحانه وتعالىٰ) says sayaqool, Allah (سبحانه وتعالىٰ) is tipping off the Prophet (ﷺ) about a scenario which is about to happen.
-Another evidence for
this is surah 48:15.
سَيَقُولُ
الْمُخَلَّفُونَ إِذَا انطَلَقْتُمْ إِلَىٰ مَغَانِمَ لِتَأْخُذُوهَا ذَرُونَا
نَتَّبِعْكُمْ ۖ يُرِيدُونَ أَن يُبَدِّلُوا كَلَامَ اللَّهِ ۚ قُل لَّن
تَتَّبِعُونَا كَذَٰلِكُمْ قَالَ اللَّهُ مِن قَبْلُ ۖ فَسَيَقُولُونَ بَلْ
تَحْسُدُونَنَا ۚ بَلْ كَانُوا لَا يَفْقَهُونَ إِلَّا قَلِيلًا
Those who lagged
behind will say, when you set forth to take the spoils, “Allow us to follow
you,” They want to change Allah’s Words. Say: “You shall not follow us; thus
Allah has said beforehand.” Then they will say: “Nay, you envy us.” Nay, but
they understand not except a little. (Al-Fath 48:15)
-If your enemy says,
“we need to talk”, it means you have now become a force to reckon with.
-Allah tips off the
Prophet (ﷺ) about what to expect from the hypocrites twice
in this ayah (48:15
REASON SEVEN – TO INFORM THE BELIEVERS
ABOUT THEIR BEHAVIOUR WHICH HURTS THE PROPHET
-One of the companions
of the Prophet had a liking for Aisha.
-He said he will marry
Aisha after the Prophet dies.
-The companion was
Talha ibn Ubaidullah.
-The Shiites say Aisha
and Talha were an item, two people that have an intimate relationship.
Allah corrected the behaviour of Talha in
surah 33:53.
يَا
أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا لَا تَدْخُلُوا بُيُوتَ النَّبِيِّ إِلَّا أَن
يُؤْذَنَ لَكُمْ إِلَىٰ طَعَامٍ غَيْرَ نَاظِرِينَ إِنَاهُ وَلَٰكِنْ إِذَا
دُعِيتُمْ فَادْخُلُوا فَإِذَا طَعِمْتُمْ فَانتَشِرُوا وَلَا مُسْتَأْنِسِينَ
لِحَدِيثٍ ۚ إِنَّ ذَٰلِكُمْ كَانَ يُؤْذِي النَّبِيَّ فَيَسْتَحْيِي مِنكُمْ ۖ
وَاللَّهُ لَا يَسْتَحْيِي مِنَ الْحَقِّ ۚ وَإِذَا سَأَلْتُمُوهُنَّ مَتَاعًا
فَاسْأَلُوهُنَّ مِن وَرَاءِ حِجَابٍ ۚ ذَٰلِكُمْ أَطْهَرُ لِقُلُوبِكُمْ
وَقُلُوبِهِنَّ ۚ وَمَا كَانَ لَكُمْ أَن تُؤْذُوا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ وَلَا أَن
تَنكِحُوا أَزْوَاجَهُ مِن بَعْدِهِ أَبَدًا ۚ إِنَّ ذَٰلِكُمْ كَانَ عِندَ
اللَّهِ عَظِيمًا
O you who believe!
Enter not the Prophet’s houses, except when leave is given to you for a meal,
(and then) not (so early as) to wait for its preparation. But when you are
invited, enter, and when you have taken your meal, disperse, without sitting
for a talk. Verily, such (behaviour) annoys the Prophet, and he is shy of
(asking) you (to go), but Allah is not shy of (telling you) the truth. And when
you ask (his wives) for anything you want, ask them from behind a screen, that
is purer for your hearts and for their hearts. And it is not (right) for you
that you should annoy Allah’s Messenger, nor that you should ever marry his
wives after him (his death). Verily! With Allah that shall be an enormity. (Al-Ahzab 33:53)
