English Translation of Al-Quran
[40].Surah Al Mumin (The Believer) also known as Surah Ghafir [The Forgiver]
Ayat 77. So be patient (O Muhammad ﷺ [SAWW](PBUH), verily, the Promise of Allah is true, and whether Allah show you (O Muhammad ﷺ [SAWW](PBUH) in this world) some part of what Allah have promised them, or Allah cause you to die, then it is to Us they all shall be returned.
Tafseer of Surah Al Mumin (The Believer) 77. So, persevere in patience; for the Promise of Allah is true: and whether We show thee (in this life) some part of what We promise them, – or We take thy soul (to Our Mercy) (before that),-(in any case) it is to Us that they shall (all) return. Cf. 10:46. As the eventual justice and readjustment of values must take place, when every soul returns to the Judgment Seat of Allah, it makes no difference if good and evil meet their deserts in this very life or not. Cf. also 13:40.
English Translation of Hadith
Hazrat Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ [SAWW](PBUH) said, “Do you know who is the bankrupt?” They said: “The bankrupt among us is one who has neither money with him nor any property”. He said, “The real bankrupt of my Ummah would be he who would come on the Day of Resurrection with Salat, Saum and Sadaqah (charity), (but he will find himself bankrupt on that day as he will have exhausted the good deeds) because he reviled others, brought calumny against others, unlawfully devoured the wealth of others, shed the blood of others and beat others; so his good deeds would be credited to the account of those (who suffered at his hand). If his good deeds fall short to clear the account, their sins would be entered in his account and he would be thrown in the (Hell) Fire”.
[Muslim Book 32, Chapter 13, Hadith # 6251]
Lesson: as mentioned above in Surah Al-Mumin Ayat 77. “Verily, the Promise of Allah is true, and whether Allah show you (O Muhammad ﷺ [SAWW](PBUH) in this world) some part of what Allah have promised them” This Hadith tells us that a Muslim has to take strict care in the performance of obligations like prescribed Salat (prayers), Zakat, etc., but he has to take similar care in his dealings, manners and morals. Salvation lies in the proper fulfillment of all these requirements. Fulfillment of one at the cost of the other will not be sufficient for salvation.
