• The start of the 22nd Juz mentions the nobility and double reward for the pious and pure wives of Prophet Muhammed ﷺ for their virtues and greatness. 

• Then through them, all the women believers have been addressed to; 7 pieces of advice have been given for them. They should:

1. Not speak to any non-Mahram in a soft voice. They must also speak to them only when it is actually required. This is to save them from the men with low-graded manners.

2. Venture out of their houses only when the situation calls for. 

3. Veil themselves, and disregard unveiling, a practice which was prevalent during the time of ignorance.

4. Offer prayers punctually.

5. Pay Zakah.

6. Obey Allah and His Messenger ﷺ.

7. Remember and recite the teachings of Quran and Hadith.

• Allah sent glad tidings to the Ahlul Bayt (the family members of Prophet Muhammed ﷺ) that He the Exalted wanted to greatly purify them from all sorts of impurities. According to the Quranic interpreters, Ahlul Bayt mean Sa’daatuna Ali, Fatima, Hasan, Husain, and the noble wives of Prophet Muhammed ﷺ - Allah be well pleased with them all. 

• Verse 35 talks about equality between believing men and women in: Islam, belief, obedience, truthfulness, patience, humility, blessings receivable on paying charity, observation of fast, chastity, and involvement in the Dhikr of Allah. Apart from equality, Allah has promised them a great reward and forgiveness. 

• Moving further, Quran made it clear that the Islamic rules apply differently on an adopted son as against an own/biological one. 

• Verse 46 talks about Prophet Muhammed ﷺ being the last of all prophets and messengers – peace be upon them all. No prophet or messenger will come after him. 

• Allah then talks about a few attributes of Prophet Muhammed ﷺ and says that he ﷺ was sent as a witness, a giver of glad tidings, a warner (against disobedience of Allah), a caller toward Allah, and an illuminating lamp/light. 

• Verse 53 talks about the etiquettes of dealing with Prophet Muhammed ﷺ, since the people back then didn’t know them necessarily. These included:

1. To enter the house of Prophet Muhammed ﷺ with permission.

2. When Prophet Muhammed ﷺ invited them for food, people were commanded by Allah to return from there right after the meal, rather than staying back for a chat. This was to save Prophet Muhammed’s ﷺ valuable time.

3. If needed, people (men) were required to communicate with the noble wives of the prophet ﷺ from behind the veil. 

• Then one of the most famous verses of the Quran says that Allah and all of His angels send Durood on Prophet Muhammed ﷺ. Then the believers have also been ordered by Allah to send their Durood and Salams (salutations) on him ﷺ.

• Right after this, Allah condemned those who harass the pious people, and said that they will have a humiliating punishment. 

• Verse 59 talks about the Hijab for Muslim women. Few of its conditions are:

1. It should cover the entire body.

2. It should not be attractive.

3. It shouldn’t be so thin in texture so as to reveal the skin color. 

4. It should be loose, and not too tight to reveal the shape of the body.

5. It shouldn’t be perfumed with a fragrance which diffuses (travels/remains) in the air.

• The next verses warned the hypocrites and the transgressors against spreading rumors in Madinah. 

• The chapter ends with advice to the believers to remain pious, to be honest and direct (straightforward) in speech, and to keep the deeds good. Allah said that the rewards for these acts are forgiveness and great success. 

• Surah Saba: This chapter talks about Sa’daatuna Daood and Suleiman (alaihuma assalam), and the people of Saba (westernized as Sheba).

• Allah states that He granted Sa’daatuna Daood and Suleiman (alaihuma assalam) such a melodious voice that when they recited Zuboor, the mountains and the birds too joined them in doing so.

• They could easily shape iron, as it used to become soft in their hands, a unique miracle they were bestowed with; they used to make armor. This only shows that getting involved self-help/employment, or as a matter in anything which fetches means of living in return to a skill, is appreciated in Islam.

• The father and the son were both given more miracles which were:

1. The wind used to carry their throne as they liked.

2. They had a pond of molten copper, with which they made vessels of any shape and size.

3. The genies were commanded to obey them.

4. On the orders of Sayyiduna Suleman (alaihissalam), the genies constructed many forts, towers, pools/stepwells, and cauldrons fixed on their stoves. 

• Despite all of these miracles at their fingertips, neither the father nor the son had an iota of arrogance and pride in themselves. Rather, they were always seen immersed in thanking Allah and remembering Him (Shukr and Dhikr). 

• When Suleman (a.s.) was supervising a construction woek by genies, he passed away. He was standing whilst taking the support of his staff (stick). The genies only came to know of his demise when termites ate his staff, and as a result he came to the ground.

• When the genies came to know about it, they wished that they only knew about Sayyiduna Suleman’s (a.s.) passing before, so that they didn’t have to go through all the hard work of constructing that structure. As per the scholarly sources, it was the same structure which the Jews of today are on a look out which they term as Solomon’s Temple, and to do so they wish to demolish Masjid al-Aqsa. 

• Verses 15 onward talk about the People of Sheba. They were farmers.

• They were blessed with excessive food stock, healthy environment, fertile land, and fruit yielding farms. 

• After granting them these blessings, Allah asked them to be thankful to Him. But they refused. Allah sent toward them a catastrophic flood which destroyed them. They now only remain in history. Their repulsion and ungratefulness fetched them this torment in this life. 

• Verse 28 certifies the universality of the messengership of our beloved Prophet Muhammed ﷺ. 

• This chapter teaches us that the pleasure of Allah isn’t attained by wealth and riches, but from having His belief and by the performance of good deeds. 

• Surah Faatir: Allah is the Almighty. He opens or closes the doors of His Mercy to whoever He wishes. It is apt even today for humanity to ponder who other than Allah is worthy to be called the creator, the almighty. None other than Him. 

• All the dignity, honor and prestige are for Allah Alone. Therefore, whosoever wishes the same must turn to Allah and seek them from Him. 

• Verse 18 clarifies that nobody will bear other’s sins. Everyone will be held accountable only for his/her deeds – good or bad. 

• Verse 28 states that it is Allah has been protecting the heavens and the earth, with his mercy, from falling. 

• Surah Yaseen: One of the most read chapters, it is spread over Juz 22 and 23. InshaAllah we’ll draft its virtues in the next Juz itself, for the benefit of the readers.

Slicing Through the Ego: The Internal Qurbani:

 - # Beyond the Sacrifice: What is Your "Ismail" This Eid ul Adha? 🌙 **Eid Mubarak!** 🌙 Every year, as the global Muslim community gathers to celebrate Eid ul Adha, our focus naturally turns to the tradition of *Qurbani* (sacrifice). We prepare the animals, distribute the meat, and share meals with family and neighbors. But if we pause and look past the physical rituals, a profound spiritual question emerges. **Eid ul Adha is not just about sacrificing an animal. It is about sacrificing whatever stands between you and Allah.** ## The True Essence of Qurbani: Trust Over Fear When Prophet Ibrahim (AS) left his wife, Hajara (AS), and their infant son in the barren desert of Makkah, he didn’t leave them in fear—he left them in absolute, unwavering trust of Allah. And years later, when he raised the knife above his beloved son, Ismail (AS), it wasn't an act of cruelty. It was the ultimate demonstration of submitting his will to the Divine. > **The realization:** The knife...

Allaah did not call him Khaleel after a single moment. The friendship ripened through repeated surrender, across fire and desert and stone:

 - Allaah did not call him Khaleel after a single moment. The friendship ripened through repeated surrender, across fire and desert and stone. - Taqwa, when it matures in the crucible of trial, is the precise and correct ordering of the loves within a heart. It is the absolute knowledge of which love sits upon the throne, and which loves, however deep, however true, however entirely lawful, must bow beneath it.  - Tawakkul is the heart’s genuine reliance upon Allaah as the sole ultimate cause of all things, combined with the employment of every legitimate means. Islam teaches freedom from servitude to causes without teaching contempt for them. It is the settled condition of a heart that has understood that creation possesses only delegated force. What burns burns because it is permitted to burn; what heals heals because it is permitted to heal. No thing in creation holds or withholds what belongs solely to the Creator. - Hasbunallaahu wa ni’mal Wakeel. Allaah is sufficient for...

Don’t fall into being from those who are unjust and falsely assume:

 - ASSUME GOOD OF PEOPLE: 🌸🌿🌸🌿🌸🌿🌸🌿🌸🌿🌸🌿🌸 A girl willingly jumps into a car after the male driver who sees her walking in the streets tells her to get in. 🌸🌿🌸🌿🌸🌿🌸🌿🌸🌿🌸🌿🌸 A man walks into a mosque while everyone is praying to wash his hands and leaves it without joining the prayer. 🌸🌿🌸🌿🌸🌿🌸🌿🌸🌿🌸🌿🌸 A teenage boy is greeted by a passerby but doesn’t return the Salam. 🌸🌿🌸🌿🌸🌿🌸🌿🌸🌿🌸🌿🌸 - 1st scenario: the driver was the girl’s brother - 2nd scenario: the man had already prayed in a mosque nearby which finished earlier - 3rd scenario: the teenage boy is deaf 🌸🌿🌸🌿🌸🌿🌸🌿🌸🌿🌸🌿🌸 Many people will fall into this trap of assuming bad of others.

Isra was the beloved’s ﷺ journey from Makkah to Jerusalem, and Meraj was that from Jerusalem to the Heavens. •        This chapter also mentions in detail many incidents of Bani Israel. •        Allah’s wisdom behind taking Prophet Muhammed ﷺ to Jerusalem was to grant him and his followers the custodianship of Masjid al-Aqsa, just like that of Masjid al-Haraam in Makkah.  •        Though this chapter is themed at Tawheed, morals, affirmation of the Doomsday, but it also focuses on messengership, and particularly in that of Prophet Muhammed’s ﷺ. •        The ...

Quran Juz 7 – Wa Iza Sami’u - Summary:

 - Quran Juz 7 – Wa Iza Sami’u Summary Join Us: https://chat.whatsapp.com/EwGX2NFn95O2Bo92HkyyiI • Allah talks about those Christians who cannot control their tears when they listen to the Qur’anic recitation. This was especially in context to Najashi Ash’amah, the Christian King of Habsha who had accepted Islam. • From Verses 87 of Surah Maidah the topics like Halal & Haram and extremism are discussed. • Islam is a religion of balance. It neither calls for abstention of permissible items (for drinking, eating, wearing etc.) as piety, nor does it abolish the distinction between Halal & Haram. • Verse 89 talks about oaths (qasm/aqd). The penalty of breaking the oath is to either feed 10 poor and needy, twice, with an average food of his/her usual intake (cost wise), or to clothe them, or to free a slave. If someone cannot do it, he/she should fast on three days. Allah also advices to be true on oaths to be safe from getting penalized. • If a person takes an oath of...

We must circulate the money by rotating it whatever amount we have, instead of having desires to earn more:

 - August-04-2021. Today's learning: **Money controlling efforts:*   *Introduction:*  Islam has always reminded us to address the human problems by continuously checking and balancing the wealth, instead of remaining in the hands of few.So, the method of rotation must keep going on, in order to allow the free flow of money between all the people. No matter what, ultimately even after our great efforts to hoard it, one day or the other it's going to leave us eventually.  *Hard earned money:* Islam says that hard earned money's value is more loved by Allah subhanahu wa taala as was earned by Prophet Dawood (peace be upon him).Allah made the iron smooth for him to turn it into different shapes and make it a useful commodity/good. Once Prophet Muhammad (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) was asked about the best job, and he replied by saying. "A job that is done by one's own hand,and every decent trade. Hadith Imam Ahmed (16628).  *Methods of utilising:* One could spe...

A lot of times, its not the message itself, but how you present it, that moves hearts and changes minds:

Once, the Caliph `Umar saw a group of people around a campfire in the middle of the desert. Instead of calling out to them with the phrase, 'O people of the fire!', he chose, 'O people around a light,' to make sure that a potentially negative phrase didn't affect them. At another time, the grandsons of the Prophet (salla Allah alayhi wa sallam) saw an old man performing wudhu, but making many mistakes. Instead of berating him, they went up to him and said, 'The two of us are arguing which one has the better wudhu, and we'd like you to be the judge between us.' When he saw how perfect their wudhu was, he said, 'It is my wudhu that needs to be corrected, not yours.' A famous preacher of the last generation - during a time when there was a raging debate regarding the theological verdict of the one who abandons the prayer, is he a Muslim or not - was asked, "What is your opinion about the one who abandons the salat?" The person that as...

Prophet (s.a.w) warned his Companions from harming or abusing their animals:

- The Prophet Muhammed ﷺ: THE ADVOCATE FOR ANIMAL RIGHTS  From the mercy of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ is His ﷺ mercy towards animals. He ﷺ taught His ﷺ followers that even animals have rights and that we must show them mercy and kindness. He ﷺ warned his Companions from harming or abusing their animals. On one occasion, the Prophetﷺ came across an emaciated camel that was tied up to a column. Seeing this distressed Himﷺ.  He told His ﷺCompanions to fear God with respect to these animals, as they will be held accountable on the Day of Judgement in their treatment regarding them. On another occasion, God's Messenger ﷺ passed by a man who was milking a sheep. He ﷺ said: "When you milk her, leave some for her lamb because it is one of the gentlest of animals." Speaking of the rights of animals, He ﷺ also said: "Ride these animals as long as they are healthy, and do not take them as seats (when not riding)." And: 'God orders you to treat these beasts of burden well when...
