AL TAGABUN (WINNING AND LOSING)
Section 1 Allah - beginning with the name of - the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful [Tagabun 64:1] All whatever is in the heavens and all whatever is in the earth proclaims the Purity of Allah; His only is the kingship and His only is all praise; and He is Able to do all things. [Tagabun 64:2] It is He Who has created you, so among you one is a disbeliever whereas another is a Muslim; and Allah is seeing your deeds. [Tagabun 64:3] He created the heavens and the earth with the truth, and fashioned you thereby making you in best shapes; and towards Him only is the return. [Tagabun 64:4] He knows all whatever is in the heavens and in the earth, and He knows all what you hide and all what you disclose; and Allah knows what lies within the hearts. [Tagabun 64:5] Did not the news of those who disbelieved before you reach you? So they tasted the evil outcome of their deeds, and for them is a painful punishment. [Tagabun 64:6] This is because their Noble Messengers used to bring clear proofs to them - in response they said, “What! Will humans show us the way?”; they therefore became disbelievers and turned away, and Allah acted independently; and Allah is the Independent, the Most Praiseworthy. [Tagabun 64:7] The disbelievers alleged that they will surely not be raised again; proclaim (O dear Prophet Mohammed – peace and blessings be upon him), “Surely yes, why not? By oath of my Lord, you will surely be raised again and you will then be informed of your misdeeds; and this is easy for Allah.” [Tagabun 64:8] Therefore accept faith in Allah and His Noble Messenger and the light which We have sent down; and Allah is Well Aware of what you do. [Tagabun 64:9] The day when He will gather you, on the
Day of Collective Assembly – that is the day when the loss of the losers
will be laid bare; and whoever believes in Allah and does good deeds, Allah
will relieve him of his sins and admit him into Gardens beneath which rivers
flow, for them to abide in it forever; this is the greatest success. |
