Imam Ahmad recorded that Aws bin Aws Ath-Thaqafi, may Allah be pleased with him, said:

"The Messenger of Allah said:

One of the best of your days is Friday; on this day Adam was created and died, on this day the Trumpet (Sur) will be blown and all will have swoon away. So on this day send plenty of Salah upon me, for your Salah will be presented to me.

They said, `O Messenger of Allah, how will they be shown to you after your body has dispersed into the earth.'

He said,

Allah has forbidden the earth to consume the bodies of the Prophets."

This was also recorded by Abu Dawud, An-Nasa'i and Ibn Majah, and it was graded Sahih by Ibn Khuzaymah, Ibn Hibban, Ad-Daraqutni and An-Nawawi in Al-Adhkar.

Imam Ahmad recorded that Abu Talhah said that the Messenger of Allah came one day looking happy. They said,

"O Messenger of Allah, we see that you look happy."

He said,

The angel came to me and told me, "O Muhammad, would it not please you if your Lord, may He be glorified, says:`No member of your Ummah sends Salah upon you but I send Salah upon him tenfold, and no member of your Ummah sends greetings of Salam upon you but I send greetings of Salam upon him tenfold."'

I said, "Of course."

This was also recorded by An-Nasa'i.

✨Verily, therein is indeed a reminder, (and a lesson), for him who has a heart, [50 - 37]

meaning, a sound understanding with which he comprehends, or, a good mind, according to Mujahid,

✨or gives ear while he is heedful. [50 - 37]

meaning, he hears the speech, comprehends and understands it in his mind and grasps its indications with his intellect.

Mujahid said that,

✨(or gives ear)

means, he does not talk to himself but listens with an attentive heart.

Ad-Dahhak commented,

"The Arabs would say that someone has given ear when he hears with his ears, while his heart is present and not absent."

Ath-Thawri and several others said similarly.

The statement of Allah the Exalted and Most Honored;

✨And indeed We created the heavens and the earth and all that between them in six Days and nothing of fatigue touched Us. [50 - 38]

is emphasis on the Resurrection because He Who is able to create the heavens and earth without fatigue, then surely He is able to resurrect the dead.

Qatadah said,

"The Jews, may Allah's curses descend on them, said that Allah created the heavens and earth in six days and then rested on the seventh day, which was the Sabbath. This is why they call it a holiday. Allah the Exalted then sent down denial of their statement and false opinion."

Allah said,

✨(and nothing of fatigue touched Us). [50 - 38]

indicating that no sleep, exhaustion or weariness affects Him. Allah the Exalted the Blessed said in other Ayat,

✨Do they not see that Allah, Who created the heavens and the earth, and was not wearied by their creation, is able to give life to the dead? Yes, He surely is Able to do all things. [46:33]

and,

✨The creation of the heavens and the earth is indeed greater than the creation of mankind. [40:57]

and,

✨Are you more difficult to create or is the heaven that He constructed? [79:27]

There has come to them a Messenger from among themselves, but they denied him, so the torment seized them while they were wrongdoers

Allah says:

✨So eat of the lawful and good food which Allah has provided for you. And be grateful for the Graces of Allah, if it is He Whom you worship. [16: 114]

Allah says :

✨He has only forbidden dead flesh, blood, the flesh of swine, and any animal which is slaughtered as a sacrifice for other than Allah. [16 : 115]

Allah orders His believing servants to eat the good and lawful things that He has provided, and to give thanks to Him for that, for He is the Giver and Originator of all favors, Who alone deserves to be worshipped, having no partners or associate.

Then Allah mentions what He has forbidden things which harm them in both religious and worldly affairs, i.e., dead meat, blood and the flesh of pigs.

and any animal which is slaughtered as a sacrifice for other than Allah.

meaning, it was slaughtered with the mention of a name other than that of Allah.

Nevertheless.

✨But if one is forced by necessity,

meaning, if one needs to do it,

✨without willful disobedience, nor transgressing

i.e. without deliberately
disobeying or transgressing, then,
فَإِنَّ اللّهَ غَفُورٌ رَّحِيمٌ✨

Allah is Pardoning, Most Merciful.

Then Allah forbids us to follow the ways of the idolators who declare things to be permitted or forbidden based upon their own whims and whatever names they agree on, such as;

the Bahirah (a she-camel whose milk was spared for the idols and nobody was allowed to milk it),

the Sa'ibah (a she-camel let loose for free pasture for their false gods, idols, etc., and nothing was allowed to be carried on it),

the Wasilah (a she-camel set free for idols because it has given birth to a she-camel at its first delivery and then again gives birth to a she-camel at its second delivery), and

the Ham (a stallion camel freed from work for the sake of their idols, after it had finished a number of acts of copulation assigned for it), and so on.

All of these were laws and customs that were invented during jahiliyyah.

18/11/2020

Then which of the blessings of your Lord will you both deny?

meaning, "O mankind and Jinn, which of the favors that Allah has given to you do you deny"

Mujahid and others said this, and it is apparent when one reads what comes after it. Meaning the favors that are obvious to you while you are surrounded by them, you cannot deny or reject them. So we say, just as the believers among the Jinns said, "O Allah! None of Your favors do we deny. All praise is due to You."

Ibn Abbas used to say, "Nay, our Lord!" meaning, "None of Your favors do we deny.

'an

رَّبَّنَآ إِنَّنَا سَمِعۡنَا مُنَادِيٗا يُنَادِي لِلۡإِيمَٰنِ أَنۡ ءَامِنُواْ بِرَبِّكُمۡ فَـَٔامَنَّاۚ رَبَّنَا فَٱغۡف...

رَّبَّنَآ إِنَّنَا سَمِعۡنَا مُنَادِيٗا يُنَادِي لِلۡإِيمَٰنِ أَنۡ ءَامِنُواْ بِرَبِّكُمۡ فَـَٔامَنَّاۚ رَبَّنَا فَٱغۡفِرۡ لَنَا ذُنُوبَنَا وَكَفِّرۡ عَنَّا سَيِّـَٔاتِنَا وَتَوَفَّنَا مَعَ ٱلۡأَبۡرَارِ

اے ہمارے رب! ہم نے سنا کہ منادی کرنے واﻻ بآواز بلند ایمان کی طرف بلا رہا ہے کہ لوگو! اپنے رب پر ایمان لاؤ، پس ہم ایمان ﻻئے۔ یا الٰہی اب تو ہمارے گناه معاف فرما اور ہماری برائیاں ہم سے دور کر دے اور ہماری موت نیکوں کے ساتھ کر

"Our Lord! Verily, we have heard the call of one (Muhammad SAW) calling to Faith: 'Believe in your Lord,' and we have believed. Our Lord! Forgive us our sins and remit from us our evil deeds, and make us die in the state of righteousness along with Al-Abrar (those who are obedient to Allah and follow strictly His Orders).

-Sura Aal-E-Imran, Ayah 193
