Surah An Nahl – Ayah 27

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

*_Today’s Thought for the day is from Surah An-Nahl Ayah 27_*

*ثُمَّ يَوۡمَ الۡقِيٰمَةِ يُخۡزِيۡهِمۡ وَيَقُوۡلُ اَيۡنَ شُرَكَآءِىَ الَّذِيۡنَ كُنۡتُمۡ تُشَآقُّوۡنَ فِيۡهِمۡ‌ؕ قَالَ الَّذِيۡنَ اُوۡتُوا الۡعِلۡمَ اِنَّ الۡخِزۡىَ الۡيَوۡمَ وَالسُّوۡۤءَ عَلَى الۡكٰفِرِيۡنَۙ.(27)*

*_Then on the Day of Resurrection He will disgrace them and will say: Where are My [so-called] partners for whose sake you used to oppose [the Prophets and the believers]? Those who were given knowledge will say: Verily today disgrace and punishment will befall the disbelievers,(27)_*

پھر وہ ان کو قیامت کے دن بھی ذلیل کرے گا اور کہے گا کہ میرے وہ شریک کہاں ہیں جن کے بارے میں تم جھگڑا کرتے تھے۔ جن لوگوں کو علم دیا گیا تھا وہ کہیں گے کہ آج کافروں کی رسوائی اور برائی ہے.(27)

The Ayah describes the fate and humiliation of the plotters on the Day of Resurrection.‼️ *Not only their plots are foiled by Allah Subhanahu wa taa’la in this world like a crashing building burying them in their own schemes, they are made to stand in shame and humiliation before the One to whom all creation and all authority belong and their scheming and arrogance will be of no value to them on the Day of Requital.* Allah Azzawajal will rebuke them, asking: _“Where are those alleged partners of Mine concerning whom you have engaged in dispute?”_ You were keen to dispute with My Messenger and his followers who acknowledged My oneness, claiming that your false deities were My partners. Where are they now❓ In their shame and humiliation, they will remain silent. On the other hand, those endowed with knowledge, angels, messengers and true believers, whom Allah Azzawajal permits to speak, will say plainly and forcefully that *_disgrace and punishment will befall the disbelievers._*

*_Act of the Day is:_* to understand the importance of gaining the true and right knowledge that leads a person to Tauheed.‼️ *True knowledge is knowledge that leads people to faith and encourages them to do good.* _This highlights the virtue of the believers with a right knowledge, for they are the speakers of truth in this world and will be the speakers of truth on the Day of Resurrection, for their words carry weight before Allah Azzawajal and before His creation._

–To understand that Knowledge and ignorance according to the Qur’an have a broad meaning and are not limited to the meaning of knowing and not.❗ *Knowledgeable people are those whose actions and thoughts are in line with the truth, even though they do not master all knowledge. As for ignorant people, they are those whose thoughts and actions are always accompanied by falsehood even though they master various disciplines.* This Ayah mentions that knowledgeable people are those who fight against disbelief and shirk. These people have faith in Tauheed.

Let’s strive to gain and obtain right and true to leads to perfection of our Imaan which will bring us closer to Allah Subhanahu wa taa’la.

*_May Allah Subhanahu wa taa’la grant us the right and true knowledge of Tauheed and make our hearts firm upon Islam. Aa’meen Ya’Rabbul Aa’lameen._*
