Surah Ha-Mim_Al-Sajdah Ayat 25 Daily Qur’an & Hadith (18 Nov 2024)

English Translation of Al-Quran

[41]. Ha-Mim_Al-Sajdah (Prostration) also known as Surah Fussilat [They Are Explained in Detail]

Ayat 25. And Allah have assigned them (devils) intimate companions (in this world), who have made fair-seeming to them, what was before them (evil deeds which they were doing in the present worldly life and disbelief in the Reckoning and the Resurrection, etc.) and what was behind them (denial of the matters in the coming life of the Hereafter as regards punishment or reward, etc.). And the Word (i.e. the torment) is justified against them as it was justified against those who were among the previous generations of jinns and men that had passed away before them. Indeed they (all) were the losers.

Tafseer of Surah Ha-Mim Al-Sajdah (or Surah Fussilat) Ayat 25. And Allah have destined for them intimate companions (of like nature), who made alluring to them what was before them and behind them; and the sentence among the previous generations of Jinns and men, who have passed away, is proved against them; for they are utterly lost. Just as the idea of happiness in heaven is expressed, not only by individual satisfaction, but by congenial society, so the idea of Punishment in hell is deepened by the fact that Evil will be made to meet evil: those who made sin fair seeming in this life will be there to share in the regrets and mutual recriminations which will make life a burden. In fact, in these Ha Mim verses, the idea of fit companionship for the Good and uncongenial company for the Evil, runs like a thread throughout. They painted in glowing colors the pleasures of sin in the past and the pleasure of sin in the future, thus practicing a double deception, which will now be found out. Jinns: see 6:100. All spirits of wickedness and all men who submitted to them, in the past, were under one common sentence; and future generations who embrace evil will also join them. Cf. 6:128. The echo here of verse 23 above completes the argument from another point of view.

English Translation of Hadith

Hazrat Abdullah bin Amr bin Al-Aas (May Allah be pleased with them) reported: We were repairing our thatch hut when Messenger of Allah ﷺ [SAWW](PBUH) passed by and asked us, “What are you doing?” We said, “The thatch had gone weak and we are repairing it.” He   [SAWW](PBUH) said, “I see the sure thing (death) approaching sooner than this.”

[Tirmizi Hadith # 2335].

Lesson : “A house, but verily, the frailest (weakest) of houses is the spider’s house; if they but knew” The word “Khuss” means a hut or a house which is made of wood and reed/bamboo and plastered with mud. The Hadith reminds us to be mindful of death at all times and be certain that there is nothing nearer to us than it. It also tells us that we should not engage in those worldly things which are bound to make us forget about our appointed term in this world.  .
