اَلسَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَرَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ وَبَرَكَاتُهُ
اَعُوْذُبِااللّٰہِ مِنَ الشَّیْطٰنِ الرَّجِيْم
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ

*_Today’s Thought for the day is from Surah Al-Isra Ayah 16_*

*وَاِذَاۤ اَرَدۡنَاۤ اَنۡ نُّهۡلِكَ قَرۡيَةً اَمَرۡنَا مُتۡرَفِيۡهَا فَفَسَقُوۡا فِيۡهَا فَحَقَّ عَلَيۡهَا الۡقَوۡلُ فَدَمَّرۡنٰهَا تَدۡمِيۡرًا.(16)*

*_When it is Our will to destroy a city, We command its affluent people [to fear Allah], but they transgress. Thus the punishment becomes inevitable, then We destroy it completely.(16)_*

اور جب ہمارا ارادہ کسی بستی کے ہلاک کرنے کا ہوا تو وہاں کے آسودہ لوگوں کو (فواحش پر) مامور کردیا تو وہ نافرمانیاں کرتے رہے۔ پھر اس پر (عذاب کا) حکم ثابت ہوگیا۔ اور ہم نے اسے ہلاک کر ڈالا.(16)

The Ayah describes a universal law that Allah Subhanahu wa taa’la has set in operation with regards to destruction of a community.‼️ _Allah Azzawajal has given man reason and choice and has determined the ways of reward and punishment. Allah Azzawajal has willed that human life should run according to set laws which never fail or change. A cause has its effect, and the effect takes place as a result of the operation of HIS will that has set this law in operation._ *Allah Azzawajal does not approve of indecency or transgression.* Allah Azzawajal’s Mercy gives every chance to the wicked to repent. When wickedness gets so rampant that punishment becomes inevitable, even then Allah Azzawajal’s Mercy and Justice act together. *Those who are highly gifted from HIM, it may be with wealth or position, or it may be with talents and opportunities are expected to understand and obey.* _They are given a definite order and warning. If they still transgress there is no further room for argument. They cannot plead that they are ignorant. The command of the Lord is proved against them, and its application is called for beyond doubt. Then it is that their punishment is completed.”_

*_Act of the Day is:_* to understand that the *affluent group of people* are specifically mentioned because it is these people, more than any other class, that need to be grateful to their Lord for HIS blessings.‼️ _In any case, after the initial warning, HE SWT allows them several reprieves. But, when they persist in sins, the word of punishment comes true and they are destroyed._

—To understand that Allah doesn’t intends to destroy it without any reason.❗ *It is destroyed because after their disobedience that habitation incurs HIS just wrath and HE SWT totally exterminates it.* _The habitation deserves such a punishment because its *common people follow the affluent people* who are the factual leaders of a community and are mainly responsible for the corruption of the community. At first the affluent people commit acts of disobedience, wickedness, mischief, cruelty and tyranny and then the common people follow them and incur the torment of Allah Azzawajal._ *Incidentally, this is a warning for every community* that it should be very discreet and prudent in *choosing and electing its leaders and rulers*, for if the latter are mean and wicked, they will inevitably lead the community to destruction.

–In essence, this Ayah reminds us that our actions have consequences, and that Allah Azzawajal’s justice will ultimately prevail.

*_May Allah Subhanahu wa taa’la grant us the ability to understand our responsibility and make us grateful for HIS blessings through our Obedience and earn HIS pleasure. Aa’meen Ya’Rabbul Aa’lameen._*

بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ

*_Today’s Thought for the day comes from Surah Al-Isra Ayah 15_*

*مَنِ اہۡتَدٰی فَاِنَّمَا یَہۡتَدِیۡ لِنَفۡسِہٖ ۚ وَ مَنۡ ضَلَّ فَاِنَّمَا یَضِلُّ عَلَیۡہَا ؕ وَ لَا تَزِرُ وَازِرَۃٌ وِّزۡرَ اُخۡرٰی ؕ وَ مَا کُنَّا مُعَذِّبِیۡنَ حَتّٰی نَبۡعَثَ رَسُوۡلًا(15)*

*_”Whoever is guided, is only guided for the (benefit of) his soul. And whoever goes astray, only goes astray against it (soul). And no bearer of burdens will bear the burden of another. And We will not punish until We have sent a Messenger”.(15)_*

جو کوئی راہ راست اختیار کرے اس کی راست روی اس کے اپنے ہی لیے مفید ہے ، اور جو گمراہ ہو اس کی گمراہی کا وبال اسی پر ہے ۔ کوئی بوجھ اٹھانے والا دوسرے کا بوجھ نہ اٹھائے گا ۔ اور ہم عذاب دینے والے نہیں ہیں جب تک کہ ﴿لوگوں کو حق و باطل کا فرق سمجھانے کے لیے﴾ ایک پیغام بر نہ بھیج دیں.(15)

_The doctrine of personal responsibility is insisted on, and the basis of ethics is shown to be our own good or evil as furthering or obstructing our highest development._

_*The Qur’an has laid great stress on the doctrine of personal responsibility at several places,* for one cannot follow the Right Way scrupulously without understanding fully its implication. *It means that, everyone is solely responsible for one’s moral conduct and is accountable to Allah Azzawajal as an individual in one’s own person, and no other person can share the burden of responsibility with him.*_ (refer S6:A164 too)

_*This doctrine has been emphasized over and over again so that a wise man should not act in imitation of another.* If a particular person feels the sense of his own responsibility, he shall act in such a way as to come out successful on the Day of Judgment, regardless of what the others do. Yet as a sign of Allah’s grace, *HE SWT does not leave man’s guidance dependent only on the signs that are available in the universe. Nor does HE SWT leave him to the covenant HE SWT has made with human nature before a person is born❗*. HE SWT has sent messengers to warn and remind and HE SWT will never visit HIS wrath on anyone until due warning is conveyed to humans through an accredited Messenger._

*_Act for the Day is:_* _To Continuously monitor our Thoughts Words & Deeds. *Also monitor that which we forward on WhatsApp, as it could become a witness against us on the Day of Judgement for spreading fitnah.*_ _Let’s remind ourselves that, we are responsible for our own actions and we can’t even blame Shaitaan for it._

_*Allah SWT has sent His most lovable Messenger ‘Mohammed’ (Sallellahu Alaihi Wasallam), as Mercy to the Whole mankind.*_
_”So we shall educate ourselves in the light of Qur’an and Hadees, *’Help each other, Love each other and Live together’ – without pointing fingers at others, with Patience and show the right path to each other.”*_

*_May Allah Subhanahu wa taa’la grant us the ability to ponder and reflect and take measures so as to gain HIS Mercy on the Day of judgement. Aa’meen Ya’Rabbul Aa’lameen._*

اَعُوْذُبِااللّٰہِ مِنَ الشَّیْطٰنِ الرَّجِيْم

اَلسَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَرَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ وَبَرَكَاتُهُ

*_Today’s Thought for the day comes from Surah Al-Isra Ayat 13 & 14_*

*وَ کُلَّ اِنۡسَانٍ اَلۡزَمۡنٰہُ طٰٓئِرَہٗ فِیۡ عُنُقِہٖ ؕ وَ نُخۡرِجُ لَہٗ یَوۡمَ الۡقِیٰمَۃِ کِتٰبًا یَّلۡقٰىہُ مَنۡشُوۡرًا(13)*

*اِقۡرَاۡ کِتٰبَکَ ؕ کَفٰی بِنَفۡسِکَ الۡیَوۡمَ عَلَیۡکَ حَسِیۡبًا(14)*

*_”And for every person We have fastened his fate to his neck; and We will produce for him on the Day of Resurrection a record which he will find wide open.”(13)_*

*_”(It will be said to him), Read your book.” Sufficient is yourself against you today as accountant.”(14)_*

ہر انسان کا شگون ہم نے اس کے اپنے گلےمیں لٹکا رکھا ہے ، اور قیامت کے روز ہم ایک نوشتہ اس کے لیے نکالیں گے جسے وہ کھلی کتاب کی طرح پائے گا.(13)

پڑھ اپنا نامہ اعمال ، آج اپنا حساب لگانے کے لیے تو خود ہی کافی ہے.(14)

_”We have fastened the augury (a sign of what will happen in the future), of every man to his own neck”; therefore one does not need to take omens from a bird; (This is to remove the superstition of the disbelievers who used to take omens from birds etc.), as if to say, “The causes and consequences of good fortune or bad fate exist in man’s own person. He merits good fortune because of his own good conduct and good judgment, and likewise, suffers the consequences of evil fate by the lack of these”._

_On the *’Day of Judgement’,* Our real fate depends upon our deeds, good or evil, and they will hang around our necks, so that we can clearly see them without any doubt._ Thus we have here a *metaphor* referring to what flies of a *person’s actions and becomes tied around his neck, so that it never parts from him*. Thus does the Qur’ān in *graphically* describing things in order to emphasize its point. *A person’s actions do not leave him, and he cannot disown them*. The same applies to the wide open record of all his actions. Thus whatever he has done in life is laid bare, a person cannot hide, ignore or disown it

*Act for the Day is:* _To be aware of the fact that, “Our true accusers are our own deeds.” Let’s look to our own deeds instead of vainly prying into other’s._‼️
_*These deeds, good or evil, will be embodied in a scroll which will be quite open to us in the light of the Day of Judgement, however much we may affect to be ignorant of it now or waste our energies in prying into mysteries that do not concern us.*_

It has been reported from Qatadah that *it will be a day when even an illiterate person will be able to read his book of deeds*. On this occasion, al-Isbahani has reported on the authority of Abu Umamah RA that the Noble Prophet SWS said: On the day of Qiyamah, when the book of deeds belonging to people will be given in their hand, someone will notice that *some of his good deeds were not recorded there. He will tell his Lord about the particular deeds missing from there*. HIS Lord will tell him that HE SWT had *erased* those deeds for *he used to speak ill of people on their backs*.

_Let’s often remind us about this fact; *(CMCG),* that we are *Continuously* being *Monitored* for our *Continuous Growth* and hence, keep track of our thoughts, words, and actions, and make sure that; they are *pleasing to Allah SWT*._

*_May Allah Subhanahu wa taa’la grant us the ability to always do the good and make it easy for us on the Day of judgement. Aa’meen Ya’Rabbul Aa’lameen._*
