THE LORD IS EVER WATCHFUL
Concerning ALLĀH'S statement,
إِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَبِالْمِرْصَادِ
Verily, your Lord is Ever Watchful.
Ibn Abbas said, "HE hears and HE sees."
This means that HE watches over HIS creation in that which they do, and HE will reward them in this life and in the Hereafter based upon what each of them strove for. HE will bring all of the creation before HIM and HE will judge them with justice. HE will requite each of them with that which he deserves, for HE is far removed from injustice and tyranny.
{Tafsir Ibn Kathīr}
O children of Adam! WE have provided for you clothing to cover your nakedness and as an adornment. However, the best clothing is righteousness. That is from the signs of ALLĀH that perhaps they will remember.
O children of Adam! Do not let Satan decieve you as he removed your parents (Adam and Hawwâ’) from Paradise, stripping them of their clothing to show them their nakedness. Indeed, he sees you, he and his soldiers, from where you do not see them. Indeed, WE have made the devils allies to those who do not believe.
📖 Al-A'rāf || Verse 26-27
Qatadah (may ALLĀH have mercy on him) said: Muslim ibn Yasār said the following regarding al-Qadr:
"Al-Qadhā' wa'l-Qadr are two deep vallies which the people travel through but will never know their true depth. Therefore, perform the deeds of a man who knows that only his deeds can save him, and have the tawakkal of a man who knows that only what ALLĀH has decreed for him can happen to him."
📚 Siyar A'lām al-Nubalā' (4/512)
Don't be the one who memorizes the Qur'an for the eyes of people, but forgets that Allah sees the heart.
Memorize in silence. Let your tears fall where no one sees. Let your struggles be known only to the One who sent down the Qur'an.
Every verse you carry is a gift, a trust-not a trophy.
There will be people on the Day of Judgment who memorized the Qur'an and were thrown into Hell first because they did it to be called a 'hafidh'. Their reward was in the praise of people, not in the pleasure of Allah.
So protect your Qur'an. Hide it like a treasure. Let it shine in your actions, not your words. The Qur'an will either speak for you or against you in the grave.
Memorize it purely for the sake of Allah and fear the responsibility that comes with it.
#Al_Baseerah (Muneebah)
Do they seek other than the religion of ALLĀH, while to HIM submitted all creatures in the heavens and the earth, willingly or unwillingly. And to HIM they will ˹all˺ be returned.
Say, WE have believed in ALLĀH and in what was revealed to us and what was revealed to Ibrāhīm (Abraham), Ismā‘īl (Ishmael), Ishāq (Isaac), Ya‘qūb (Jacob) and Al-Asbāt (the offspring of the twelve sons of Ya‘qūb (Jacob)) and what was given to Mūsā (Moses), ‘Īsā (Jesus) and the Prophets from their Lord. We make no distinction between any of them, and we are Muslims ˹submitting˺ to HIM.
And whoever seeks a religion other than Islām, it will never be accepted of him, and in the Hereafter he will be one of the losers.
📖 Āli-'Imrān || Verse 83-85
Sheikh Ṣāliḥ al-Fawzān (may ALLĀH preserve him):
"Some say 'I put my trust in ALLĀH, I will sit worshipping and ALLĀH will provide', this is impermissible. You must seek provision for yourself and your wife, it’s a part of worship, do not sit for charity."
📚 Itihaful-Qāri bit-ta'līqāt 'ala Sharḥ as-Sunnah
Say, "Imagine if ALLĀH were to make the night continous for you until the Day of Resurrection, which god other than ALLĀH could bring you sunlight? Will you not then listen?"
Say, "Imagine if ALLĀH were to make the day continous for you until the Day of Resurrection, which god other than ALLĀH could bring you night to rest in? Will you not then see?"
It is out of HIS Mercy that HE has made for you the night and the day that you may rest therein (i.e. during the night) and that you may seek of HIS Bounty (i.e. during the day) - and in order that you may be grateful.
📖 Al-Qasas || Verses 71-73
Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthaymīn (may ALLĀH have mercy on him) said:
"The Messenger's (ﷺ) saying, 'Do not make yourself incapable' means: Do not become lazy and go back on an action once you have started it; rather, persist.
This is because if you left it and then afterwards started another action, and then afterwards you left ˹that˺ and then started, and then left, none of your actions would ˹ever˺ get completed."
📚 Sharḥ Riyaḍus-Ṣāliḥīn (2/82)
ALLĀH'S BOUNTY TOWARDS HIS CREATION
ALLĀH says:
ٱللَّهُ ٱلَّذِى جَعَلَ لَكُمُ ٱلَّيۡلَ لِتَسۡكُنُواْ فِيهِ وَٱلنَّهَارَ مُبۡصِرًاۚ
It is ALLĀH Who has made the night for you to rest in and the day for you to see.
That is, HE has made it (the night) for your sake; HE has made it dark "for you to rest" in it from your activities which, if they were to be continuous, would cause you harm. So you retire to your beds, and ALLĀH bestows upon you sleep, which gives rest to minds and bodies. Sleep is one of the human necessities that man cannot do without. Every lover finds comfort in his beloved, and people become focused, and distractions are reduced.
And ALLĀH has made "the day for you to see" by the light of the sun that is running its course. So you get up from your beds and go about your business, both spiritual and worldly. So people may recite dhikr or read Qur’an, or pray, or seek knowledge and study; or engage in trade, or work as builders, blacksmiths and other professions; or travel by land or sea; or go out to till the fields, or to tend to their animals.
إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ لَذُو فَضۡلٍ عَلَى ٱلنَّاسِ
Indeed, ALLĀH is full of Bounty to mankind,
as HE bestows upon them these blessings and others, and HE averts harm from them. This requires them to give complete thanks to HIM and to remember HIM,
وَلَٰكِنَّ أَكۡثَرَ ٱلنَّاسِ لَا يَشۡكُرُونَ
but most people are not grateful.
because of their ignorance and wrongdoing.
˹ALLĀH mentioned elsewhere:˺
وَقَلِيلٌ مِّنۡ عِبَادِىَ ٱلشَّكُورُ
But few of MY slaves are grateful. (34:13)
There are few who acknowledge the blessings of their Lord, submit to ALLĀH, love HIM, and use the blessings in obedience to their Lord and in pursuit of HIS pleasure.
{Tafsir As-Sa'di}
And it will be said to those who feared ALLĀH, What did your Lord send down? They will say, ˹That which is˺ good. For those who do good in this world is good; and the home of the Hereafter is better. And how excellent is the home of the righteous -
Gardens of perpetual residence, which they will enter, beneath which rivers flow. In it they will have whatever they desire. This is how ALLĀH rewards the righteous—
Those whose souls the angels take while they are virtuous, saying ˹to them˺, “Salāmun 'Alaikum (peace be upon you)! Enter Paradise for what you used to do ˹in the world˺.”
📖 An-Nahl || Verse 30-32
THE BELIEVER IS PATIENT WITH THE AFFLICTION AND THUS GAINS A REWARD
ALLĀH says,
وَلَنَبۡلُوَنَّكُم بِشَىۡءٍ مِّنَ ٱلۡخَوۡفِ وَٱلۡجُوعِ وَنَقۡصٍ مِّنَ ٱلۡأَمۡوَٰلِ وَٱلۡأَنفُسِ وَٱلثَّمَرَٰتِۗ وَبَشِّرِ ٱلصَّٰبِرِينَ
WE will surely test you with something of fear and hunger and a loss of wealth and lives and fruits, but give good news to those who patiently endure.
These things will inevitably happen, because the All-Knowing, All-Aware has told us of it, and it happened as HE foretold. When it happens, people respond in one of two ways, either impatience or patience. The one who is impatient suffers two calamities: the loss of what he loves, which is the calamity that he has been stricken with, and loss of something greater than that, which is the reward for obeying ALLĀH’s command to be patient. Thus he incurs loss and deprivation of reward and whatever he has of faith decreases. He misses out on patience, acceptance and gratitude, and he becomes resentful, which is indicative of a lack of faith.
As for the one whom ALLĀH enables to be patient when calamities occur, he controls himself and stops himself developing any resentment that could be reflected in his words or deeds. He seeks reward for it from ALLĀH, and he knows that the reward he will attain for his patience is greater than the calamity that has befallen him. In his case, the calamity turns into a blessing, because it becomes a means of attaining something better and more beneficial for him than what he lost. So he obeys the command of ALLĀH and earns reward. Hence ALLĀH says:
وَبَشِّرِ ٱلصَّٰبِرِينَ
but give good news to those who patiently endure.
that is, give them the glad tidings that they will be rewarded without measure.

The Prophet (ﷺ) said:
"The life of this World is like the food of the son of Adam: no matter how much salt and spice he adds to it, let him look to how it ends up ˹as filth˺."
📚 Sahih al-Jāmi' #2195
BENEFIT 21: REGARDING THE CALL TO PRAYER
It is sufficient when responding to the call of the muezzin at the testimony of faith (Shahadatayn) to say: "Wa Ana (And so do I)" or "And I bear witness (Wa Ana Ash-had)" or something similar. This is based on the hadith of Sahl ibn Hunayf, who heard Mu'awiyah ibn Abi Sufyan (repeating the statements of the Adhan) while he was sitting on the pulpit. When the Mu'adh-dhin pronounced the Adhan saying, "Allāhu-Akbar, Allāhu-Akbar", Muawiya said: "Allāhu-Akbar, Allāhu-Akbar." And when the Mu'adh-dhin said, "Ash-hadu an lā ilāha illallāh (I testify that none has the right to be worshipped but Allāh)", Muawiya said, "Wa Ana (And so do I)". When he said, "Ash-hadu anna Muhammadan Rasulullah" (I testify that Muhammad is Allāh's Messenger), Muawiya said, " Wa Ana (And so do I)". When the Adhan was finished, Muawiya said, "O people, (when the Mu'adh-dhin pronounced the Adhan) I heard Allāh's Messenger (ﷺ) on this very pulpit saying what you have just heard me saying" (¹)

THE ENCOURAGEMENT TO STICK TO THE RIGHT PATH AND RESIST TEMPTATIONS
ALLĀH says,
وَٱللَّهُ يُرِيدُ أَن يَتُوبَ عَلَيۡكُمۡ
ALLĀH wishes to accept your repentance
that is, by means of repentance that helps you to start anew, fills your hearts with peace and brings you closer to ALLĀH.
وَيُرِيدُ ٱلَّذِينَ يَتَّبِعُونَ ٱلشَّهَوَٰتِ أَن تَمِيلُواْ مَيۡلًا عَظِيمًا
but those who follow their desires wish to see you deviate entirely ˹from the right path˺.
That is, those who go along with their whims and desires wherever they lead them, and give precedence to that over that which pleases ALLĀH; they worship their whims and desires. ˹This refers to˺ all types of disbelievers, sinners and those who give precedence to their whims and desires over obedience to their Lord.
These people "wish to see you deviate entirely ˹from the right path" that is, they want you to deviate from the straight path and follow the path of those with whom ALLĀH is angry and those who have gone astray. They want to divert you from obedience to the Most Merciful to obedience to the Shaytan, from adherence to the guidelines that lead to happiness by obeying HIS commands to following the one whose way leads to utter misery.
Once you realise that ALLĀH enjoins upon you that which is in your best interests and will lead to success and happiness, and that those who follow their whims and desires are enjoining upon you that which will lead to the utmost loss and misery, then choose for yourselves the better of the two callers and choose the better of the two paths.
{Tafsir As-Sa'di}
Ibn Mas’ud (may ALLĀH be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of ALLĀH (ﷺ) drew a line in the sand with his hand and he said, “This is the straight path of ALLĀH.” Then, the Prophet drew lines to the right and left, saying, “These are other paths, and there is no path among them but that a devil is upon it calling to its way.” Then, the Prophet recited the verse, “Verily, this is the straight path, so follow it and do not follow other ways.” (6:153) {Musnad Ahmad #4437}
Al-Nu’man ibn Bashir reported: The Messenger of ALLĀH (ﷺ) said, “ALLĀH is more intensely joyful by the repentance of His servant than a man who sets out on a journey with his provisions upon his camel. Then, he marched until he reached a waterless desert and was overtaken by sleepiness. He descended to lie under a tree, but his camel ran away as he slept. When he woke up, he ran to the nearest hill but did not see anything, then he ran to another hill but did see anything, then he ran to a third hill but did not see anything, so he returned to his original place. While he was sitting, his camel came walking back until it placed his rein in his hand. Thus, ALLĀH is more intensely joyful by the repentance of the servant than this man who finds his camel in this situation.” {Muslim #2745}
/channel/alBaseeroh_Ins
Ibn Kathīr (may ALLĀH have mercy on him) said:
"From the manners of the Prophet (ﷺ) was that he would have beautiful companionship and would always be joyful, he would be playful with his family and treat them affectionately, he would be generous in spending on them, he would make his wives laugh, he would even run a race with ‘A'ishah the mother of the believers to show love towards her."
📚 Tafsīr Ibn Kathīr (1/466)
And ˹remember˺ when your Lord brought forth from the loins of the children of Adam their descendants and had them testify regarding themselves. ˹saying to them˺, Am I not your Lord? They said, Yes, we have testified. ˹This˺ lest you should say on the Day of Resurrection, Indeed, we were of this unaware.
Or lest you should say: It was only our fathers afortime who took others as partners in worship along with ALLĀH, and we were ˹merely their˺ descendants after them. Then would YOU destroy us for what the falsifiers have done?
And thus do WE explain in detail the verses, and perhaps they will return ˹to the Right Path˺.
📖 Al-A'rāf || Verses 172-174
Shaykhul-Islām Ibn Taymiyyah (may ALLĀH have mercy on him) said:
"The most complete person is he who obeys ALLĀH the most and has the most patience with afflictions. The closer one follows the commands of ALLĀH and HIS Messenger (ﷺ), the more his actions agree with what ALLĀH loves and is pleased with, and the greater his patience is with his pre-decree, the more complete and virtuous he is. One is only as faulty as his abidance by these two."

How Often Is Intimacy a Right for the Wife?
🎙️Shaykh Sulayman al-Ruhayli (may ALLĀH preserve him upon goodness)
"Some from among the Salaf said: 'I like to beautify myself for my wife just as I want that she beautifies herself for me.'
This can fall under the hadith: 'None of you believes until he wishes for his brother that which he wishes for himself.'"
📚 Sharh al-Mumti’ (12/403)
Abū Bakr as-Ṣiddīq (may ALLĀH be pleased with him) said:
"Beware of boasting, for what boast can he have who’s created from dust, and then will later return to dust, then later maggots will eat him, and today he’s alive and tomorrow dead?!"
📚 Al-Khulafa’ ar-Rashidun || Page 108-110
MIXING TRADE WITH CHARITY
Abu Wa'il narrated that Qais bin Abi Gharazah said: "The Messenger of ALLĀH (ﷺ) came to us, and we were what was called 'brokers,' he said: 'O people of trade! Indeed the Shaitan and sin are present in the sale, so mix your sales with charity'." {At-Tirmidhi #1208}
In another narration, he (ﷺ) said: "O company of merchants, unprofitable speech and swearing takes place in business dealings, so mix it with charity." {Abū Dāwūd #3326}
LESSONS AND BENEFITS:
• Even while engaging in worldly pursuits like trade or business, remain conscious of your faith and duties to ALLĀH.
• Permissibility of trade.
• Set aside a specific portion of your sales profits to donate to charity as it purifies wealth and earns the pleasure of ALLĀH.
• Good deeds wipe away bad deeds.
• Always seek the help of ALLĀH to guard against the influence of Shaytan in your business dealings.
• Strive to be honest and transparent in your trades. Avoid lies, deceptions, and unnecessary oath.
And ALLĀH knows best.

GOOD-DOERS SHOULD NOT BE BLAMED
ALLĀH said,
مَا عَلَى الْمُحْسِنِينَ مِن سَبِيلٍ وَاللّهُ غَفُورٌ رَّحِيمٌ
"There is no reason to reproach those who do good" and carry out their duties towards ALLĀH and HIS slaves. There should be no blame on them. If a person does what he is able to, then what he cannot do is waived for him.
This verse is quoted as evidence for the principle which says that the one who does good to another person (with good intentions) by taking care of him and his wealth, and the like, but his attempt to do good leads to some damage or loss, then he is not liable, because he sought to do good and there is no reason to reproach those who do good. This verse also indicates that the one who does not do good, or does not do things properly, such as one who is negligent, is liable.
{Tafsir As-Sa'di}
THE VIRTUE OF ASSERTING THAT WE ALL BELONG TO ALLĀH, DURING AFFLICTIONS
ALLĀH says,
وَبَشِّرِ ٱلصَّٰبِرِينَ ٱلَّذِينَ إِذَآ أَصَٰبَتۡهُم مُّصِيبَةٌ قَالُوٓاْ إِنَّا لِلَّهِ وَإِنَّآ إِلَيۡهِ رَٰجِعُونَ
Give good news to those who patiently endure—who, when afflicted with calamity, say, "Indeed we belong to ALLĀH, and indeed to HIM we will return."
That is, ALLĀH owns us and we are under HIS control; we have no control over our own selves and property at all. If we are tested with regard to some of it, then the Most Merciful has decreed something concerning HIS slaves and their property as HE wills, so there should be no objection to HIM. Rather it is part of being a true slave of ALLĀH (‘ubūdiyah) to realise that the calamity has been decreed by the Sovereign, the Most Wise, Who is more merciful to him than he is to himself. This gives him a sense of contentment and acceptance of ALLĀH’s decree, which makes him grateful to ALLĀH for decreeing for HIS slave that which is good for him, even if he does not realise it. In addition to the fact that we belong to ALLĀH, we will return to HIM on the Day of Resurrection, when HE will requite each person in accordance with his deeds. So if we show patience and seek reward, we will find our reward waiting for us with HIM, but if we are impatient and resentful, our share will be nothing but resentment and the loss of reward. Knowing that we are slaves of ALLĀH and will return to HIM is among the greatest means of attaining patience.
{Tafsir As-Sa'di}
There are several Hadiths that mention the rewards of admitting that the return is to ALLĀH by saying:
إِنَّا لِلّهِ وَإِنَّـا إِلَيْهِ رَاجِعونَ
"Indeed we belong to ALLĀH, and indeed to HIM we will return."
when afflictions strike.
For instance, Imam Ahmad reported that Umm Salamah narrated: "Once, Abu Salamah came back after he was with ALLĀH's Messenger and said: I heard ALLĀH's Messenger recite a statement that made me delighted.
He (ﷺ) said: "No Muslim is struck with an affliction and then says Istirja' (innā lillāhi wa innā ilaihi rāji'ūn) when the affliction strikes, and then says:`O ALLĀH! Reward me for my loss and give me what is better than it,' but ALLĀH will do just that."
Umm Salamah said: So I memorized these words.
When Abu Salamah died I said Istirja' and said: "O ALLĀH! Compensate me for my loss and give me what is better than it."
I then thought about it and said, "Who is better than Abu Salamah?"
When my Iddah (the period of time before the widow or divorced woman can remarry) finished, ALLĀH's Messenger asked for permission to see me while I was dyeing a skin that I had. I washed my hands, gave him permission to enter and handed him a pillow, and he sat on it.
He then asked me for marriage and when he finished his speech, I said, "O Messenger of ALLĀH! It is not because I do not want you, but I am very jealous and I fear that you might experience some wrong mannerism from me for which ALLĀH would punish me. I am old and have children."
He (ﷺ) said: "As for the jealousy that you mentioned, ALLĀH the Exalted will remove it from you. As for your being old as you mentioned, I have suffered what you have suffered. And for your having children, they are my children too."
She said, "I have surrendered to ALLĀH's Messenger."
ALLĀH's Messenger married her and Umm Salamah said later,
"ALLĀH compensated me with who is better than Abu Salamah: ALLĀH's Messenger."
Muslim reported a shorter version of this Hadith
{Tafsir Ibn Kathīr}
BEAUTIFUL PATIENCE IS AT THE FIRST STRIKE OF CALAMITY
Anas ibn Malik, may Allāh be pleased with him, reported: The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, passed by a woman who was weeping next to a grave. The Prophet said, "Be mindful of Allāh and be patient."
She said, "Go away from me! You have not been afflicted by a calamity like mine," and she did not recognize him.
Then, she was told that it was the Prophet, so she went to the Prophet’s house and she did not find any guards there. She said to him, "I did not recognize you."
The Prophet said, "Verily, patience is at the first strike."

Indeed, the criminals will be in the torment of Hell forever.

WE did not wrong them, but it was they who were the wrongdoers.
And they will cry: O Mālik (Keeper of Hell)! Let your Lord put an end to us! He will say: Verily, you shall abide forever.
WE certainly brought the truth to you, but most of you have a hatred for the truth.
Or have they plotted some plan? Then WE too are planning.
Or do they think that WE do not hear their secrets and their private counsel? Yes ˹We do˺! And OUR messengers (i.e., appointed angels in charge of mankind) are with them recording.
📖 Az-Zukhruf || Verse 74-80
Ibn ‘Abbās (may ALLĀH be pleased with him) said:
"From Sunnah is that when you invite someone to your place, you go out with him ˹to the door˺, until he leaves."
📚 Bahjatul-Majālis (3/84)
THE GOOD LOAN AND ITS REWARD
ALLĀH said;
مَّن ذَا ٱلَّذِى يُقۡرِضُ ٱللَّهَ قَرۡضًا حَسَنًا
Who is it that would loan ALLĀH a goodly loan
and spend whatever he can afford of his wealth on various good causes, especially jihad. What is meant by a goodly loan is that which is earned in a permissible manner and is spent for the sake of ALLĀH.
فَيُضَٰعِفَهُۥ لَهُۥٓ أَضۡعَافًا كَثِيرَةًۚ
so HE may multiply it for him many times over?
The good deed brings a tenfold reward, up to seven hundredfold, up to many times more, according to the intention of the one who gives it, how beneficial it is and how much it is needed. Because people may think that if they spend they will become poor, ALLĀH wards off this notion by saying
وَٱللَّهُ يَقۡبِضُ وَيَبۡصُۜطُ
It is ALLĀH Who withholds and ALLĀH Who gives abundantly,
that is, HE gives abundant provision to whomever HE wills and HE withholds from whomever HE wills. All control is in HIS Hands and all matters are directed by HIM. Withholding wealth does not increase provision and spending it does not decrease it. Moreover, spending is not wasted for those who spend; rather on that day they will find what they sent forward, complete and multiplied abundantly. Hence ALLĀH says:
وَإِلَيۡهِ تُرۡجَعُونَ
and to HIM you will all return
and HE will reward you for your deeds.
{Tafsir As-Sa'di}
THE HONOR AND NOBLE NATURE OF MAN
ALLĀH tells;
وَلَقَدْ كَرَّمْنَا بَنِي ادَمَ
And indeed WE have honored the Children of Adam,
ALLĀH tells us how HE has honored the sons of Adam and made them noble by creating them in the best and most perfect of forms, as HE says:
لَقَدْ خَلَقْنَا الاِنسَـنَ فِى أَحْسَنِ تَقْوِيمٍ
Verily, WE created man in the best stature (mould). (95:4)
He walks upright on his two feet and eats with his hand, while other living creatures walk on four feet and eat with their mouths, and HE has given him hearing, sight and a heart with which to understand all of that, to benefit from it, and distinguish between things to know which are good for him and which are harmful, in both worldly and religious terms.
وَحَمَلْنَاهُمْ فِي الْبَرِّ وَالْبَحْرِ
and WE have carried them on land and sea,
means, on animals such as cattle, horses and mules, and also on the sea in ships and boats, great and small.
وَرَزَقْنَاهُم مِّنَ الطَّيِّبَاتِ
and have provided them with At-Tayyibat,
meaning agricultural produce, fruits, meat, and milk with all kinds of delicious and desirable flavors and colors and beautiful appearance, and fine clothes of all kinds of shapes colors and sizes, which they make for themselves or are brought to them by others from other regions and areas.
وَفَضَّلْنَاهُمْ عَلَى كَثِيرٍ مِّمَّنْ خَلَقْنَا تَفْضِيلً
and have preferred them above many of those whom WE have created with a marked preferment.
means, over all living beings and other kinds of creation.
This Ayah indicates that human are also preferred over the angels.
