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 81_*
*وَ اللّٰہُ جَعَلَ لَکُمۡ مِّمَّا خَلَقَ ظِلٰلًا وَّ جَعَلَ لَکُمۡ مِّنَ الۡجِبَالِ اَکۡنَانًا وَّ جَعَلَ لَکُمۡ سَرَابِیۡلَ تَقِیۡکُمُ الۡحَرَّ وَ سَرَابِیۡلَ تَقِیۡکُمۡ بَاۡسَکُمۡ ؕ کَذٰلِکَ یُتِمُّ نِعۡمَتَہٗ عَلَیۡکُمۡ لَعَلَّکُمۡ تُسۡلِمُوۡنَ.(81)*
*_”And Allah has made for you, from that which He created, shades and has made for you shelters from the mountains and has made for you garments which protect you from the heat and garments (coats of armour) to protect you from your (mutual) violence (wars). Thus He completes His Favor upon you so that you may submit (to Him).(81)_*
اس نے اپنی پیدا کی ہوئی بہت سی چیزوں سے تمہارے لیے سائے کا انتظام کیا ، پہاڑوں میں تمہارے لیے پناہ گاہیں بنائیں ، اور تمہیں ایسی پوشاکیں بخشیں جو تمہیں گرمی سے بچاتی ہیں اور کچھ دوسری پوشاکیں جو آپس کی جنگ میں تمہاری حفاظت کرتی ہیں ۔ اس طرح وہ تم پر اپنی نعمتوں کی تکمیل کرتا ہے شاید کہ تم فرمانبردار بنو.(81)
_AIIah makes provision for the minutest needs and necessities of every aspect of human life. Our clothes protect us from heat and cold, just as our armour protects us from the hurt which otherwise receive in battle. The use of garments in hot countries has specially been mentioned because the main use of garments here is for protection from the hot pestilential furious wind. Therefore, one has to cover one’s head, neck, ears, and the whole of ones body to protect it from the hot wind which would otherwise scorch one to death._
_We find that Allah has made such elaborate arrangements as require a complete book to relate them. *These arrangements reach their perfection in the case of clothing and housing arrangement.* Likewise, one would see perfection of the blessings of Allah in the fulfillment of each and every human need and necessity._
*Act for the Day is:* _To understand that all these blessings, which have both a physical and a spiritual purpose, should *teach us to rally towards Allah and tune our will with His Universal Will, which is another name for Islam, and bow to His Will.*_
*_May Allah Subhanahu wa taa’la grant us the ability to ponder and submit to HIS commands in toto. Aa’meen Ya’Rabbul Aa’lameen._*
