اَلسَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَرَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ وَبَرَكَاتُهُ
اَعُوْذُبِااللّٰہِ مِنَ الشَّیْطٰنِ الرَّجِيْم
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ
*_Today’s Thought for the day is from Surah Al-Hijr Ayat 17 & 18_*
*وَحَفِظۡنٰهَا مِنۡ كُلِّ شَيۡطٰنٍ رَّجِيۡمٍۙ.(17)*
*اِلَّا مَنِ اسۡتَرَقَ السَّمۡعَ فَاَ تۡبَعَهٗ شِهَابٌ مُّبِيۡنٌ.(18)*
*_And We have guarded it from every accursed devil.(17)_*
*_But if any of them manages to eavesdrop, he is pursued by a clearly visible flame.(18)_*
اور ہر شیطان راندہٴ درگاہ سے اُسے محفوظ کر دیا.(17)
ہاں اگر کوئی چوری سے سننا چاہے تو چمکتا ہوا انگارہ اس کے پیچھے لپکتا ہے.(18)
The Ayat describe the perfect power wisdom and magnificent protection of the heavens.‼️ When Allah Subhanahu wa taa’la has adorned and beautified the heavens HE SWT has kept it pure and safe from the accursed shaitan. None, then, can spoil this purity by trying to spread evil in it. *Shaitan is allowed to do his evil work only on earth, to tempt human beings to follow his wicked designs.* _The sky, which is a symbol for what is exalted and sublime, is beyond his reach. He may attempt to do so, but every attempt he makes is foiled and he is pursued by a shooting flame._ *But on some occasions, some of the devils may manage to covertly eavesdrop on the conversation between the Angels in heaven and snatch some news but he is pursued by a clearly visible flame that is, a flame that is bright and clear, which kills him or stuns him.* _Sometimes the flame may strike him before that devil can convey the news to his familiar, so the news of heaven is prevented from reaching the earth, and sometimes he throws it to his familiar devil before the flame strikes him, and his familiar then takes it and adds one hundred lies to it, and he uses that word that was heard from heaven to prove himself to the soothsayers._ This is how the soothsayers thrive upon their business.(Bukhari)
*_Act of the Day is:_* to understand that Shaitans have no access to the heavens. They cannot enter the limits of the skies. So they have neither the opportunity for spreading evil there nor of bringing any news from there.‼️ As Allah Subhanahu wa taa’la says in Surah Jinn
*_“We had sought the heaven but had found it filled with strong warders and meteors, and we used to sit on place (high) therein to listen. But he who listened now finds a flame in wait for him.(Surah Jinn 72:8-9)_*
–To understand and do not fall into the trap of the soothsayers and astrologers and weaken our faith or fall into kufr when clear evidence exists before us that the things they say are totally false and baseless.
*_May Allah Subhanahu wa taa’la strengthen our Imaan and save us from falling into the tricks and traps of shaitan. Aa’meen Ya’Rabbul Aa’lameen._*
