Surah Al-Mujādilah

Madani surah.
Discusses laws specific to marriage.
Motif: knowledge of Allah SWT

Mujādilah means the lady who is pleading (or arguing her case).

#YQGems
A lady came to the prophet SAWS and a lady came to complain about her husband. Allah SWT heard what she was saying and revealed Quran to advise her.

#YQGems
She was complaining about a preislamic custom where if a man gets angry he can say utter a particular phrase that can leave a wife in limbo. She is not fully married but not fully allowed to marry another person.

#YQGems
The revelation of the Quran indicated that this was an evil, detestable practice. He put a hefty fine on any man that did this to his wife and it is not considered Islamic to do.

#YQGems
Surah Mujadilāh also deals with hypocrites which was something that happened a lot during the madani period. The prophet SAWS said that these secret gatherings where they plot etc. were from shaitan. And Muslims are advised against participating in such gatherings.

#YQGems
Surah Mujadilāh also deals with Allah’s knowledge. If there is any small group of people, for example, if three then Allah is the fourth. Allah is always the other person in the room meaning his knowledge is everywhere. Nothing is hidden from Him.

#YQGems
Even though it seems as though the topics have moved far from marriage, we can still understand from this that Allah knows what is happening in the secrecy of your households. He knows if a husband is mistreating his wife etc.

#YQGems
Surah Mujādilah concludes saying that it is not possible that Allah and the messenger be associated with enemies of Allah. Allah is not referring to just any non Muslim. He is talking about enemies of Islam and these two things are not equivalent.

Surah Al-Insān

Insān is used in the first verse of the surah. This surah is also called Ad-Dahr(time) which is also used in the first verse.

Prophet SAWS would recite this Surah every Friday in Fajr salah in the second rakaat (Surah Sajdah recited in first rakaat).

#YQGems
Theme of Surah Al-Insān is to remind mankind to be thankful to Allah.

The surah starts: No one knew you would be here, of your existence. We were the ones who created you from a drop. Caused you to see and to hear. We showed you the path.
Be thankful or ungrateful.

#YQGems
Surah Al-Insān also lists the characteristics of the believers:

Those who feed their own food to others (even though they need it themselves).

When you do it, you do not need to get thanks from others. You are doing it for the sake of Allah.

Surah Al-Qiyāma

Likely revealed during the first year of revelation.

Qiyāma meaning the judgement.

#YQGems
Allah swears by the day of judgement.

Did not people know that we can reassemble their bones? Rather we can even reconstruct the tips of their fingers (the finest details)

#YQGems
People will testify against themselves on the day of judgement. Despite all of their excuses, their testament will not be accepted.

Surah Al-Muzzammil

This surah is the third revelation that Allah SWT revealed to the prophet SAWS.

Iqra was the first. Then Muddathir. Then Muzzammil.

#YQGems
The prophet SAWS is being warned in Surah Al-Muzzammil of the challenges ahead and of the spiritual preparation that is needed.

Oh you who is wrapped up (this is the meaning of muzzammil), stand up and pray for most/half of the night, or even more than that.

#YQGems
The very first things that Allah commands the prophet SAWS to do after becoming a prophet is to pray and to read Quran.

Allah said to him read with tartiila (with a slow, melodious voice).
