English Translation of Al-Quran
[36].SurahYaseen [Yaseen]
Ayat 9. And Allah has put a barrier before them, and a barrier behind them, and has covered them up, so that they cannot see.
Ayat 10. It is the same to them whether you (O Muhammad ﷺ[SAWW](PBUH) warn them or you warn them not, they will not believe.
Tafseer of Surah Yaseen, Ayat 9 and 10. And We have put a bar in front of them and a bar behind them, and further, we have covered them up; so that they cannot see. Their retreat is cut off and their progress is impossible. Further the Light that should come from above is cut off, so that they become totally devoid of any hope, and the last gleam of any spiritual understanding is extinguished in them. Ayat 10. The same is it to them whether thou admonish them or thou do not admonish them: they will not believe. When the stage just described is reached, revelation or spiritual teaching ceases to have any value for them. Why then preach? The answer is given in the verses following.
English Translation of Hadith
Hazrat Aishah (May Allah be pleased with her) reported: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ[SAWW](PBUH) used to seclude himself (in the mosque) during the last ten nights of Ramadan. He would say, “Search for Lailat-ul-Qadr (Night of Decree) in the last ten nights of Ramadan.”
[Al-Bukhari Book 03, Chapter 32, Hadith # 237].
Lesson : We learn from this Hadith that (1). One should concentrate more on prayers and worship on the last ten nights of Ramadan than the first twenty nights, in the same way as one should do more worship in Ramadan than in the other months. 2. One should keep oneself awake for prayer, worship and glorification of Allah in the last ten nights of Ramadan so that one can attain the blessings of Lailat-ul-Qadr. 3. One should also persuade his family members to keep themselves awake for prayer and worship in the last ten odd nights of Ramadan so that they can also make efforts to please Allah. 4. Itikaf (seclusion in the mosque for prayers) in the last ten days of Ramadan is also a meritorious act for its being a practice of the Prophet ﷺ[SAWW](PBUH).
