Surah Ash-Shura Ayat 06. Daily Qur’an & Hadith (17 Dec 2024)

English Translation of Al-Quran

[42]. Surah Ash-Shura [The Consultation]

Ayat 6. And as for those who take as Auliya’ (guardians, supporters, helpers, protectors, etc.) others besides Him [i.e. they take false deities other than Allah (as) protectors, and they worship them] Allah is Hafiz (Protector) over them (i.e. takes care of their deeds and will recompense them), and you (O Muhammad ﷺ [SAWW](PBUH) are not a Wakil (guardian or a disposer of their affairs) over them (to protect their deeds, etc.).

Tafseer of Surah Al Shura (Consultation) Ayat to 6. And those who take as protectors others besides Him, Allah doth watch over them; and thou art not the disposer of their affairs. We now come to the contrast, the folly and ingratitude of man. But that cannot escape its final doom in the Universal Plan of Allah. Only Judgment rests with Allah. A Prophet is not responsible for the conduct of men, in a system which permits some limited free will and personal responsibility.

English Translation of Hadith

Hazrat Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported A person came to : The Messenger of Allah ﷺ [SAWW](PBUH) and asked, “Who among people is most deserving of my fine treatment?” He ﷺ [SAWW](PBUH) said, “Your mother”. He again asked, “Who next?” “Your mother”, the Prophet   [SAWW](PBUH) replied again. He asked, “Who next?” He (the Prophet ﷺ [SAWW](PBUH)) said again, “Your mother.” He again asked, “Then who?” Thereupon he ﷺ [SAWW](PBUH) said,” Then your father.”

In another narration: “O Messenger of Allah! Who is most deserving of my fine treatment?” He   [SAWW](PBUH) said, “Your mother, then your mother, then your mother, then your father, then your nearest, then nearest”.

[Al-Bukhari Book 08, Chapter 73, Hadith # 02] 

Lesson : as mentioned above in Surah Al- Ankabut Ayat 08. “Allah have enjoined on man to be good and dutiful to his parents” This Hadith tells us that the rights of the mother are three times more important than that of the father for the reasons that:

1 She is weaker than her father.

2. The following three troubles are borne exclusively by the mother while the father does not share them with her:

a) She carries the baby in her womb for nine months,

b) The labor pain which she suffers.

c) Two years’ period of suckling which disturbs her sleep at night and affects her health, She has also to be very cautious in her food for the welfare of the baby.
