اَلسَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَرَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ وَبَرَكَاتُهُ
اَعُوْذُبِااللّٰہِ مِنَ الشَّیْطٰنِ الرَّجِيْم
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ
*_Today’s Thought for the day is from Surah Al-Isra Ayat 9 & 10_*
*اِنَّ ہٰذَا الۡقُرۡاٰنَ یَہۡدِیۡ لِلَّتِیۡ ہِیَ اَقۡوَمُ وَ یُبَشِّرُ الۡمُؤۡمِنِیۡنَ الَّذِیۡنَ یَعۡمَلُوۡنَ الصّٰلِحٰتِ اَنَّ لَہُمۡ اَجۡرًا کَبِیۡرًا(9)*
*وَّ اَنَّ الَّذِیۡنَ لَا یُؤۡمِنُوۡنَ بِالۡاٰخِرَۃِ اَعۡتَدۡنَا لَہُمۡ عَذَابًا اَلِیۡمًا(10)*
*”Indeed, this Qur’an, guides to that which is most straight and gives glad tidings to the believers who do righteous deeds that they will have a great reward”(9)*
*”And that those who do not believe in the Hereafter – We have prepared for them a painful punishment”.(10)*
حقیقت یہ ہے کہ یہ قرآن وہ راہ دکھاتا ہے جو بالکل سیدھی ہے ۔ جو لوگ اسے مان کر بھلے کام کرنے لگیں انہیں یہ بشارت دیتا ہے کہ ان کے لیے بڑا اجر ہے.(9)
اور جو لوگ آخرت کو نہ مانیں انہیں یہ خبر دیتا ہے کہ ان کے لیے ہم نے دردناک عذاب مہیا کر رکھا ہے.(10)
_The message of the Qur’an is for all and easy to Understand for all, provided a sincere effort is made‼️._
The way to which the Qur’an guides has been called *’aqwam*,’ the most upright. *’Aqwam*’ can be explained by saying _that it is a way that is closer to the destination, is easy and free of dangers at the same time. (Qurtubi)_ *This tells us that the rules set for human life by the Holy Qur’an are a combination of all three features mentioned above.*
_Those who have faith and show that faith in their conduct, must reap their spiritual reward. *But those who reject Faith cannot escape punishment.* There is spiritual Hope – and a spiritual danger – for every soul._
*_Act for the Day is:_* to understand that the Qur’ān ensures harmony between man’s outward and inward existence, feelings and behaviour, faith and action. In all this it shows the way to what is ‘most upright’, linking all these aspects to the true and unseverable bond that exists between man and Allah Subhanahu wa taa’la. This enables man to look up to a higher horizon while he is still on earth.‼️ *The Qur’ān establishes a perfect balance between duties and abilities*
_To practically make the Qur’an available for all. And, its our duty to put good deeds into action for the sake of spiritual benefits and not for the sake of any other purposes._
_We shall instruct humankind in righteousness; warn and shield humankind Against evil. But, remember that nothing can lessen Each soul’s personal responsibility For its own deeds. *It carries its fate Round its own neck.* Allah Azzawajal’s gifts are for all, but not all receive The same gifts, nor are all gifts are of equal dignity or excellence._
*_May Allah Subhanahu wa taa’la grant us the ability to ponder upon the Qur’an and make it easy for us to implement it in our daily life. Aa’meen Ya’Rabbul Aa’lameen._*
