English Translation of Al-Quran
[39].Surah Al-Zumar [The Groups]
Ayat 69. And the earth will shine with the light of its Lord (Allah, when He will come to judge among men) and the Book will be placed (open) and the Prophets and the witnesses will be brought forward, and it will be judged between them with truth, and they will not be wronged.
Ayat 70. And each person will be paid in full of what he did; and He is Best Aware of what they do.
Tafseer of Surah Al Zumar Ayat 69. And the Earth will shine with the Glory of its Lord: the Record (of Deeds) will be placed (open); the prophets and the witnesses will be brought forward and a just decision pronounced between them; and they will not be wronged (in the least). It will be a new Earth. All traces of injustice or inequality, darkness or evil, will have gone. There will be the one universal Light, the Glory of Allah, which will now illuminate all. Falsehood, presence, and illusion will have disappeared. Everything will be seen in its true light. It is in such a scene of Reality that Judgment will be held. Before the Throne of Allah, the book of each man’s deeds and motives will be placed wide open, which all may see; the Prophets and Preachers of Truth and the martyrs who gave their lives or made their real sacrifices in the cause of Truth, will be in the Court, to give evidence; and the decision pronounced will be absolutely just, for the Judge will not only be just, but He will know every fact and circumstance, and His wisdom will give due weight to everything, great or small. Ayat 70. And to every soul will be paid in full (the fruit) of its Deeds; and (Allah) knows the best all that they do. In an earthly court, a decision may possibly go wrong because the judge is deceived; here no deceit or mistake will be possible, for Allah knows all, and knows it better than anyone else can.
English Translation of Hadith
Hazrat Abu Shuraih Khuwailid bin Amr Al-Khuza’i (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: I heard Messenger of Allah ﷺ [SAWW](PBUH) saying, “He who believes in Allah and the Last Day, should accommodate his guest according to his right.” He was asked: “What is his right, O Messenger of Allah?” He ﷺ [SAWW](PBUH) replied: “It is (to accommodate him) for a day and a night, and hospitality extends for three days, and what is beyond that is charity.” it is added: Messenger of Allah [SAWW](PBUH) said, “It is not permissible for a Muslim to stay so long with his brother till he makes him sinful.” He was asked: “O Messenger of Allah ﷺ, how can he make him sinful?” He ﷺ replied, “He prolongs his stay with him till nothing is left with the host to entertain him (guest).”
[Muslim Book.18, Chapter 13, Hadith # 4287].
Lesson : This Hadith throws light on something more of the etiquette and scope of hospitality. A guest ought to be given the best entertainment on the first day and night. For the next two days, hospitality should be moderate. On the fourth day, the guest should leave for his destination. Yet if he chooses to stay, hospitality will be in the sense of charity.
