Surah Al-Munafiqun (The Hypocrites) 63

This Surah was revealed in Madinah, and it has 11 verses and 2 sections

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

(And spend out of what We have given to you before death comes to one of you...63:10)

COMMENTARY: 'Coming of death' in this verse refers to 'witnessing the signs of death'. The verse exhorts the believers to make the best of their opportunities to spend in the way of Allah, in the state of good health and strength, before the signs of death appear, and thus they should have their degrees of rank elevated in the Hereafter. Once death overtakes them, the opportunity to spend will be lost, and the wealth will be of no use. Earlier on we learnt that the word Dhikr (remembrance of Allah) refers to all forms of obedience and following the dictates of Shari'ah, which include spending wealth as due.

One of the major objects that divert man from acting upon the sacred laws of Shari'ah is wealth. Therefore, spending wealth, in the form of Zakah, Ushr, Hajj and so on, is specifically mentioned.

When a person sees the signs of death, it is not in his power to perform his missed prayers, or his missed Hajj, Ramadhan fasts. However, the wealth is in front of him, and he is sure that soon it will slip out of his hand.

Furthermore, charity is efficacious in averting calamities and punishment.

~ Ma’aariful Qur’an ~
To be continued…

My mother nurtured me to be strong and beautiful inside out, just like the roots of a flower, when I sway help me to stand firm again.

My father disciplined me to be a principled valued member of society. When I feel like my integrity is being questioned or trampled upon, help me to rise again and stand tall.

My mother taught me the art of sharing and the etiquette of caring, when I feel cold in my heart, help me to share and care again let warmth radiate through.

My father placed his protective hand over my head when fear gripped me and gave me courage to face those fears. When I feel scared to stand up for justice strengthen the impediment in my speech and clear the thick cloud of doubt that may surround me.

My mother thought me to love with each beat of my heart; she loved me unconditionally even when I acted like a little monster. When I attempt to instill goodness and love in children, help me to show them the right way.

My mother, my father
Unqualified teachers,
Who taught me the value of life...

Thank you for the ocean of knowledge I am proud to have been your student!
