English Translation of Al-Quran
[39].Surah Al-Zumar [The Groups]
Ayat 52. Do they not know that Allah enlarges the provision for whom He wills, and straitens it (for whom He wills). Verily, in this are signs for the folk who believe!
Tafseer of Surah Al Zumar Ayat 52. Know they not that Allah enlarges the provision or restricts it, for any He pleases? Verily, in this are Signs for those who believe! Cf.28:82. Allah’s gifts are given to all men—to some in a greater degree than to others. But it is all done according to His wise Plan, for His Will is just and looks to the good of all creatures, No one should therefore be puffed up in prosperity or cast down in adversity. Prosperity does not necessarily mean merit on man’s part, nor adversity the reverse. Thinking men bear in mind the large Plan which is visible in all Allah’s Signs.
English Translation of Hadith
Hazrat Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: I heard The Messenger of Allah ﷺ [SAWW](PBUH) saying, “Man follows his friend’s religion, you should be careful who you take for friends”.
[At-Tirmidhi Hadith # 2378 and Abu Dawud Hadith # 4833].
Lesson : as mentioned above in Surah Ar-Rum [The Romans] Ayat 14. “That Day shall (all men) be separated (i.e. the believers will be separated from the disbelievers).” This Hadith also induces one to avoid the company of impious people and seek the association of the pious persons.
