Surah At-Tahreem (The Prohibition)
This Surah is Madani, and it has 12 verses and 2 sections

In the Name of Allah, The Beneficent, The Most Merciful

[0 two wives of the Prophet,] If both of you repent to Allah, then [your conduct calls for it, because] your hearts have diverted....66:4).

COMMENTARY: The reference here is made to two of his blessed wives who, as mentioned above in brief, contrived to draw the Holy Prophet Sallallahu Alayhi Wa Sallam into swearing an oath and making the aforementioned promise to abstain from honey.

Who were they? Bukhari and other collections of Traditions record a lengthy Tradition about this on the authority of Ibn 'Abbas RA who narrates that he was always on the look-out to enquire of Sayyidna Umar RA as to who were the two wives to whom reference had been made in the above verse. So, when Sayyidna Umar RA was on his way to pilgrimage, the former joined him. One day, in the course of the journey, the latter went to answer the call of nature. When he returned, the former had arranged water for the latter's ablution. He poured water on his hands. Whilst pouring the water for ablution, he enquired as to who were the two wives to whom reference is made in the dual verse 4 - 6? (If both of you repent) Sayyidna Umar RA asked him in surprise: 'Do you not know who they were?' Ibn 'Abbas RA said: 'No' Sayyidna Umar RA said they were Hafsah and A'ishah RA, and then proceeded to recount a lengthy story related to this incident which also contained some incidents that took place earlier. The details of the incident are available in the Tafseer books.

This verse addresses the two blessed wives of the Holy Prophet Sallallahu Alayhi Wa Sallam and requires them to turn to Allah as their hearts have deviated, albeit what they did, stem from their love for the Holy Prophet Sallallahu Alayhi Wa Sallam, but in the process they, in consultation with one another, adopted a way that hurt the Holy Prophet Sallallahu Alayhi Wa Sallam This is a sin for which repentance was necessary.

At the trial, the engineer insisted that he had given the driver ample warning by waving his lantern back and forth for nearly a minute. He even stood and convincingly demonstrated how he'd done it. The court believed his story, and the suit was dismissed.

"Congratulations," the lawyer said to the engineer when it was over. "You did superbly under cross-examination."

"Thanks," he said, "but he sure had me worried." "How's that?" the lawyer asked.

"I was afraid he was going to ask if the lantern was lit!"
