Surah Al-Jāthiya

Main theme: to establish the importance of the Quran. And to clarify different types of evidences against those who reject the Quran.

#YQGems
Jāthiya means kneeling down
It is named because of the verse that explicitly mentions all of the nations and ummahs kneeling down in front of Allah on the day of judgement.

#YQGems
Surah begins by listing the blessings of Allah, listing the mechanisms of how Allah has dominion over the entire creation, before criticizing those who have rejected and those who do not listen to the signs.

#YQGems
Then Allah explains how to deal with the rejectors v.14

Those who believe, tell them to forgive those who have no hope for the coming kingdom of Allah SWT. Allah will fully recompense them for all that they have earned.

#YQGems
Whoever does a good deed, it is for themself. Whoever commits an evil deed, it is against himself. Then all of you shall go back to Allah.

#YQGems
Allah says forgive! It is not our job to judge. It is up to Allah and He has every right to judge.

#YQGems
The moral argument for believing in the day of judgement: v.21

Allah created the heavens and the earth with ultimate truth and justice and wisdom. Every soul will be repaid for what it has earned and they will not be wronged.

#YQGems
The fact that there is no ultimate justice in this world is an automatic indication that there shall be a day of justice and judgement.

Allah azzawajal will not allow injustice to go unpunished nor will He allow piety to go unrewarded.

#YQGems
We are especially told to be careful of one of the worst of all evils: the one who has taken his desires as his object of worship. Allah has put a seal on his hearing and heart and vision. Who will guide this person after Allah has allowed Him to be led astray.

#YQGems
Anyone who follows whatever he desires, it is as if he has worshipped himself instead of Allah SWT.

#YQGems
The surah concludes mentioning the day of judgement: to Allah belongs the dominions of heaven and earth. And the day that judgment takes place, the falsifiers will lose, and you will see every community on its knees. Every community will be called to its book (of deeds). #YQGems
