Manzil 4
Ruku 240 - 315
Starting from Bani Israi'l through Furqan (9 Surah)
Allah took Muhammad (pbuh) on a tour of the universe Allah fulfilled the prophecy made in the Holy Book of the Israelites that they will create mischief in the land twice and each time they will be punished. The Qur'an guides to the perfectly Straight Way.
On the Day of Judgment, each individual shall be given the book of his own deeds. He that seeks guidance, does so to his own good and he who goes astray, does so to his own loss. He that desires the transitory things of this life, is given it here, but in the hereafter, he shall be condemned to hell.
Commandments of Allah to the believers that: You shall not worship any except Him, you shall be obedient to your parents, nice to your relatives and the community at large.
Do not kill children for fear of want, nor commit adultery, do not kill anyone nor consume the property of orphans. Fulfil the pledges, give full measures, do not follow anyone blindly, do not walk arrogantly and do not associate other deities as an object of worship along with Allah. If there were other gods besides Allah, they would have tried to dethrone Him
Belief in the hereafter is necessary to understand The Qur'an. There is a life after death.
Believers should speak only good words Invented gods have no power to relieve you from any distress. The reason for not sending the signs to Muhammad (pbuh) as were sent to prior prophets.
Shaitãn, his enmity with human beings, and his vow to seduce them. Allah has provided conveyance for you on land and sea.
Accountability of every community and its leaders. No compromise is allowed in matters of Islamic law and principles.
Five times daily Salah (prayers) and an extra prayer (called Tahajjud) for the Prophet. The Qur'an is a healing and mercy for the believers.
Ar-Rüh (Spirit) is at the command of Allah. No one can produce a Qur'an like this.
Allah has sent a human Rasool to human beings; if the dwellers of earth had been Angels, Allah would have sent an angel as a Rasool. Guidance by Allah only; Disbelievers will be resurrected as deaf, blind. Only disbelievers can doubt life after death.
Musa was given nine signs; people still did not believe him. The Qur'an is revealed in truth and with the truth it has come down in sections to suit each occasion, for easy deliberation. Offer Salah neither too loud nor in too low a voice, adopt the middle course.
Those who say Allah has begotten a son are uttering a monstrous lie. Story of the Companions of the Cave.
They were young men who declared the truth about the Oneness of Allah. They had to run away and take refuge in a cave.
They were in a state of sleep. They were awakened by Allah after hundreds of years. Their identity was disclosed to resolve the disputed issue of life after death: What a shame that, instead of getting the point, people were disputing about their numbers.
Whenever you promise to do something in the future, always say: "Insha Allah (If Allah wills)". No one is authorized to change the Word of Allah. Proclaim: "Truth from Allah has come - choice is yours: believe it or disbelieve."
Similitude of worldly life and its relationship with the life of the hereafter.
Fate of those who follow the Shaitãn and commit shirk.
Allah has given all kinds of examples in the Qur'an, so that the people may understand His Message.
The Prophet Musa travelled to find Khizr to learn some of the knowledge given to him by Allah Almighty.
The Prophet Musa could not resist questioning Khizr about making a hole in a boat. The story of the Prophet Musa and Khizr.
Fates of the mushrikin and the Believers on the Day of Judgement. Words of Allah are countless and can not be recorded. Muhammad is but a human being like you.
The story of Zakariya and the birth and youth of Yahya (John).
The story of Maryam and the miraculous birth of Isa (Jesus). Maryam brought her baby (Jesus) to her people and the baby spoke to his people in the cradle to defend his mother and proclaim his assignment to be their Prophet. Isa (Jesus) is not the son of God, it is not befitting to the Majesty of God that He needs to beget a son.
The story of Ibrahim and his idol worshipping father.
The Prophethood of Musa, Isma`il and Idris. All prophets of Allah were Divinely Guided and chosen.
Believers and unbelievers' life in this world and their life in the Hereafter.
No god other than Allah will be able to save you on the Day of Judgement. Those who say Allah has begotten a son, preach such a monstrous lie that even the Heavens may crack, earth split and mountains crumble to pieces. Allah has made the Qur'an easy for mankind.
The Qur'an is a reminder for those who fear Allah, the Creator of the heavens and the earth. The Prophet Musa went to the sacred valley of 'Tuwa' at mount Tür. Allah chose him as His Rasool and assigned him towards Fir'on.
Prophet Musa prayed to Allah to open his heart, ease his task and remove the impediment from his speech so that people may understand, what he says. Allah granted his request and reminded him about His favors Dialogue between Musa and Fir'on.
Human life cycle. Fir'on disbelieved Musa by calling his miracles a magician's trick and challenged him to confront his magicians in public - Musa accepted the challenge. The confrontation of Musa and Fir'on's magicians. The magicians after witnessing Musa's miracle, accepted Islam. Dialogue between the magicians and Fir'on.
Deliverance of the Children of Israel from the bondage of Fir'on. When the Prophet Musa went to Mount Tür for communion with Allah – Israelites started worshipping the calf in his absence.
Musa's inquiry about idol worshipping, his decision about Samiri, Golden Calf and his address to his people. The Qur'an is but a reminder and the life of this world shall appear to be no longer than one day in the Hereafter.
A scene from the Day of Judgement. The Qur'an is sent in Arabic to teach and to remind, so read and say: "O Rabb increase me in knowledge."
Story of Adam's creation and Shaitãn's temptation. Allah forgave Adam's sin, chose him and guided him to the right Way. Those who do not read The Qur'an and follow its guidance shall be raised as blind on the Day of Resurrection.
Do not envy others in worldly benefits, rather seek Allah's pleasure if you want to attain the blessed end. The Qur'an is a sign from Allah so there can be no excuse for the unbelievers on the Day of Judgement.
The Day of Accountability is getting closer, but the disbelievers are still heedless to the admonition and dispute as to how a human being can be a Rasool.
The creation of the heavens and earth is not a game. If there were more than One God, the heavens and earth would have been in a state of disorder. All Rasools were sent with the same Message: "There is no god but Allah, so worship Him Alone."
The skies and earth once were one mass; Allah split them asunder, and He created all living things from water Allah has not granted immortality to any human being. If Rasools are doomed to die, how are disbelievers going to live forever?
Invented gods cannot even defend themselves; how will they defend the unbelievers against Allah? The scale of justice shall be set up on the Day of Judgment. Musa was given Al-Furqan (the criterion of right and wrong), so is this The Qur'an.
Ibrahim questioned the idol worshipping of his father and his people. Ibrahim broke all their idols to show that the gods who cannot even defend themselves, cannot be of any benefit to them. They decided to burn him alive but Allah commanded the fire to be cool and comfortable for Ibrahim. Allah blessed Ibrahim with a son (Ishaq) and then a grandson (Yaqoob) and made each of them prophets.
Allah accepted the prayer of Nuh against the unbelievers. Allah blessed Prophets Dawood and Sulaiman with wisdom, knowledge, and kingdoms. Allah accepted the Prophet Ayub's prayer and removed his affliction. Allah accepted the prayers and blessed Prophets Isma`il, Zulkifl, Yunus, and Zakariya and also blessed Maryam. Mankind is but one brotherhood.
Whoever does good deed, provided he is a believer, his endeavour will not be rejected. The Day of Judgment and the fate of the disbelievers and believers. Allah has sent Muhammad (pbuh) as a blessing for all the worlds (humans, jinns, and others).
A scene from the Hour of Doom. Life cycle, life in this world and life in the Hereafter. People invoke other deities besides Allah, without knowledge and guidance.
Behavior of those who are standing at the verge of faith. Allah always helps His Rasools. All the dwellers of the heavens and the earth prostrate before Allah. The disbelievers will have garments of fire, boiling water, lashes with maces of iron.
Allah has given equal rights to all believers at Masjid-al-Harãm, whether they are natives or foreigners.
Allah identified the site of the Sacred House to Ibrahim, and commanded him to build the Ka'bah, then call mankind to come for Hajj. Committing shirk is like falling from the sky, then body is snatched away by birds.
It is not the meat or the blood of the sacrificed animals that reaches Allah, it is your piety that reaches Him.
Permission is granted to the believers to fight in self defense, and for the cause of Allah. O Muhammad, you are not the only one being denied, all Prophets were denied before you. A day of your Rabb is equal to 1000 years of your calculation.
Acceptors of Truth shall be forgiven, while others punished. Shaitãn tampered with the wishes of all Rasools, but Allah abrogated such interjection. On the Day of Judgement, Allah Himself shall be the Judge for all.
Those who migrated for the sake of Allah shall be generously rewarded. Allah is the only One Who is Real, all other deities are false.
Allah is the One Who has given you life, causes you to die and will bring you back to life for passing on His Judgement. Allah will judge between you concerning matters in which you differ.
Gods besides Allah have no power to create even a creature like a fly. Allah named the believers Muslims in the prior scriptures and also in this (The Qur'an).
Characteristics of true believers. Stages of human creation. Allah has made the heavens, vegetation, trees and animals for the benefit of human beings.
The Prophet Nuh was sent to guide his people - they disbelieved him and as a result Allah drowned all disbelievers in the great flood. After the Prophet Nuh, Allah sent Hud to guide his people.
They called the Prophet Hud an imposter; as a result, Allah destroyed them all in a mighty blast. After Hud, Allah sent Rasools to other people; those people also denied and faced a similar punishment. Musa was sent to Fir'on and his chiefs; they also disbelieved and faced destruction.
Allah has said: "In fact, your religion is one religion; I am your Rabb, so fear Me Alone." Allah has not charged any soul with more than it can bear. Those who do not believe in the hereafter will ever stray away from the Right Path.
Allah has given you ears, eyes and hearts but you seldom show gratitude. Even the disbelievers recognize the existence of Allah. Allah never begotten a son, nor is there any other god besides Him.
Repel evil with good and seek refuge with Allah against the temptations of Shaitãn. The wrongdoers will wish that they could be sent back to this world to adopt the Right Way, but it will be too late. On the Day of Judgement it will appear as if the life of this world was less than one day. The unbelievers will never attain salvation.
Punishment for rape or fornication. Punishment for false witness. Li'an (accusing wife if no witness in a case of adultery).
Slander against a wife of the Prophet. Allah declared the Prophet's wife to be innocent.
Allah commanded the believers not to follow Shaitãn and not take part in false accusations and slanders.
Etiquette for entering the houses other than your own. Required behaviour of a Muslim in mixed traffic and gatherings of males and females. Allah's order for single people to get married. Allah's order to grant liberty to those slaves who seek to buy their freedom.
Allah is the Light of the heavens and the earth. Allah's Light is found in the places of worship which are built for His remembrance by His devotees. Deeds of unbelievers are like a mirage in a sandy desert.
Everything in the heavens and earth glorifies and praises Allah. Allah has created every living creature from water. Those who claim to be the believers but do not demonstrate their belief through actions are not true believers.
True believers are those who, when called towards Allah and His Rasool, say: "We hear and we obey."
Etiquette of seeking permission to enter the room of married couple. Etiquette of eating at houses other than your own.
Requirement to attend meetings which require collective action.
Blessed is Allah Who revealed this Qur'an, the criterion to distinguish right from wrong. The wrongdoers are those who reject the truth and disbelieve a Rasool because he is a human being.
Those who deny the Hour and life after death will be cast in the blazing fire. On the Day of Judgement, those deities whom the mushrikin invoke, will deny any claim of divinity and hold the mushrikin responsible for their shirk.
The unbelievers who ask for angels today will ask for a stone barrier between them and the angels of punishment. Disbelievers shall regret on the Day of Judgement not adopting the Right Path. Allah explains the wisdom behind revealing the Qur'an piecemeal rather than all at once.
All nations which rejected Allah's revelations and His Rasools were utterly destroyed. Those who have taken their desires as their gods are nothing but animals.
Allah has made the night a mantle, sleep to rest, and the day to work. Do not yield to the unbelievers; make Jihad against them with the Qur'an. Put your trust in Ever-Living (Allah), Who will never die.
Characteristics of the True Servants (believers).
