Tafseer of Surah Al-Qasas Ayat 73. It is out of His Mercy that He has made for you Night and Day,- that ye may rest therein, and that ye may seek of his Grace;- and in order that ye may be grateful. A “perpetual Night,” for which the faculty of “hearkening” was appropriate, as all light was shut out. In this verse a perpetual Day is mentioned, for which the faculty of “seeing” is appropriate.
English Translation of Hadith
Hazrat Anas (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah [SAWW](PBUH) said, when a slave of Mine draws near to Me a span, I draw near to him a cubit; and if he draws near to Me a cubit, I draw near to him a span of outstretched arms;. And if he comes to Me walking, I go running to him.”’.
[Al-Bukhari Chapter 93, Hadith # 627].
Lesson : as mentioned above in Surah Al-Qasas Ayat 73. “It is out of Allah’s Mercy” This Hadith mentions infinite benevolence, generosity, kindness and regard of Allah for His slaves, which is evident from the reward that He gives to His slaves even on their minor good deeds. This Hadith also mentions the infinite Compassion and Mercy of Allah to His obedient slaves and a special expression of which will be made by Him on the Day of Resurrection. On that Day, He will give at least ten times reward for each good deed. In some cases, it may be far more than that, seven hundred times or more, as He would like. Such benevolence on His part warrants that a Muslim should never lose hope of His forgiveness.
