QURAAN LESSONS

Surah Al-Qiyamah 75: - (The Resurrection)
With the name of Allah, the All-Merciful, the Very-Merciful

and it is said, "Who is an enchanter (that can save him?)" [27]
and he realizes that it is (the time of) departure (from the world,) [28]
and one shank is intertwined with the other shank, [29]
then on that day, it is to your Lord that one has to be driven. [30]
So (the denier of the Hereafter) neither believed, nor prayed, [31]
but rejected the truth and turned away (from it), [32]
then he went to his home puffed up with pride. [33]

COMMENTARY: In the statement, (and one shank is intertwined with the other shank) the word Saaq means 'shank'. This statement could mean that, being agitated and restless, he strikes one shank on the other, or rubs one shank against the other. It could also signify that if one leg is placed on the other, and the dying person wants to move it, he would not be able to do so. [Sha'bi and Hasan have interpreted it in this way]

Sayyidna Ibn 'Abbas . says that the two 'shanks' refer to the two worlds: the Here and the Hereafter. The verse signifies 'the last day of the days of this world and the first day of the days of the Hereafter; one affliction will be joined to another, and the agony of leaving this world will be joined to the agony of the punishment awaiting the disbeliever in the next world'. And Allah knows best!

THE MESSAGE

BEHIND EVERY SUCCESSFUL YOUTH ARE PARENTS
-----------------------------------------------
I
n today’s times we have problem children, and we also have problem parents. Before we label our son or daughter as problematic, just consider whether we, too, are not part of the problem. Every father and mother should harken to these words. A child’s behaviour is, more often than not, a reflection of the parents’ treatment of it.

When a father complained about his son to Ameerul-Mumineen Umar RA, then instead of reprimanding the son the Caliph began questioning the father whether he had fulfilled his role as a father.

“What you sow shall you reap” is an idiom very apt to a parent / child relationship. There are of course, exceptions to the general rule, but quite often parents are to blame for their child’s erratic behaviour. When parents do not give love to their daughter, she might seek it (and find it) in a boy outside the home. When parents treat the son with disdain and harshness, they distance him from themselves. The result is lack of obedience. When parents fail to acknowledge their child’s achievements, they break its morale. When parents only know the child’s faults but do not provide solutions, then they become part of the problem instead of the solution.

Parents need to support their children through thick and thin. Always shower them with words of encouragement, instead of finding fault in every little thing they do. When your son or daughter errs, point out the fault with wisdom, tact, and decency. Then proceed to provide a solution.

At times overlook a child’s naughtiness, and reprimand it on another occasion. Your child is what you make of it. Your attitude and behaviour will either create the monster you cannot handle, or the angel that does you proud. A child’s success is the making of his or her parents. By success we do not mean passing matric with 10 ‘a’s, or achieving a university degree. Success in this context means the child’s morality, character, and mental stability. Schools and universities cannot give this to your child. It is you as a mother and father, who can motive your son or daughter to this distinctive achievement.

I leave all parents with the following astounding statement from the World’s Expert on human psychology, Prophet Muhammad Sallallahu Alyhi Wa Sallam:

"Four things are among the signs of a man’s nobility: 1) A virtuous wife. 2) Noble children. 3) Righteous friends. 4) A livelihood in his hometown. (Narrated by Imam Suyooti (RA with references in his hadith anthology, Jam’ul Jawaami’ )

A THOUGHT

UPON HIS WAY
----------------
None can be from among the followers of the Messenger. in reality except the one who calls to Allaah with clear insight and evidence (Baseerah):

"Say (O Muhammad! This is my way. I invite unto Allaah with keen insight and sure knowledge, I and whosoever follows me.. [Soorah al-Yoosuf (12):10]

His saying, ...I invite unto Allaah... explains his way, which he is upon, since his way and the way of his followers is calling to Allaah. Therefore, whoever does not call to Allaah is not upon his way.

And His saying, ...with keen insight and sure knowledge (Baseerah) Ibn al-A’raabi said, Al-Baseerah: (meaning) firmness in the religion...

~ IBNUL QAYYIM ~

 
THE SMILE
Water in the Glass
------------------
What would people of different professions and walks of life say?

The BANKER would say that the glass has just under 50% of its net worth in liquid assets.

The GOVERNMENT would say that the glass is fuller than if the opposition party were in power.

The OPPOSITION would say that it is irrelevant because the present administration has changed the way such volume statistics are collected.

The ECONOMIST would say that, in real terms, the glass is 25% fuller than at the same time last year.

The PHILOSOPHER would say that, if the glass was in the forest and no one was there to see it, would it be half anything?

The PSYCHIATRIST would ask, "What did your mother say about the glass?"
