Surah Ibrahim – Ayah 51

 

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

*_Today’s Thought for the day is from Surah Ibrahim Ayah 51_*

*لِيَجْزِيَ اللَّهُ كُلَّ نَفْسٍ مَّا كَسَبَتْ إِنَّ اللَّهَ سَرِيعُ الْحِسَابِ.(51)*

*_”So that Allah may recompense each soul for what it earned. Indeed Allah is Swift in reckoning”.(51)_*

یہ اس لیے کہ خدا ہر شخص کو اس کے اعمال کا بدلہ دے۔ بےشک خدا جلد حساب لینے والا ہے.(51)

On the Day of Judgement, Allah Subhanahu wa taa’la will reward each soul according to what it earned by its own acts, good or evil, in its life of probation.‼️

*_Swift in reckoning = taking account;_* _We can understand this as; Let not the wicked think that because Allah Azzawajal, out of HIS infinite Grace and Mercy, grants respite, therefore the retribution (punishment) will be slow in coming. When the time comes in accordance with Allah Azzawajal’s plan and Wisdom, the punishment will come so swiftly that the ungodly will be surprised and they will wish they get more respite._

*_Act for the Day is_* : to understand that None of the people will remain without compensation. And no action in the world will be left without its repurcation in the Hereafter.‼️ *Thus, the Divine punishment and reward have their origin in our own practices.*

_To realise that on the great day of Reckoning, let it not be supposed that, because there will be billions of Souls to be judged, there will be any delay in Judgement as in a human tribunal. It will be a new world and beyond the flight of Time. Or if a metaphor from time as we conceive it in this world can be taken, it will be as it were in twinkling of an eye._ _*(Please ref S16:A77 also)*_

*_May Allah Subhanahu wa taa’la grant us the ability to always do the Good and earn HIS pleasure. Aameen Ya Rabbul Aa’lameen._*
