Qur'an and Surah Al-Fatiha

Salam Friends,

Hope you all are doing well Insha’Allah. I usually write my email stuff on Saturday night but last night I literally forget to write my email, so I don’t have a lot of stuff on my mind but let’s start…

QUR’AN REFLECTION🕋

Today I want to talk about Sarah Al-Fatiha, what a beautiful beginning to Qur’an. This Surah is in fact a prayer that Allah has taught to all those who want to study His book. It has been placed at the very beginning of the book to teach this lesson to the reader: if you sincerely want to benefit from the Quran, you should offer this prayer to the Lord of the Universe.

This preface is meant to create a strong desire in the heart of the reader to seek guidance from the Lord of the Universe, Who alone can grant it. Thus Al-Fatihah indirectly teaches that the best thing for a man is to pray for guidance to the straight path, to study the Quran with the mental attitude of a seeker- after-truth and to recognize the fact that the Lord of the Universe is the source of all knowledge. He should, therefore, begin the study of the Quran with a prayer to him for guidance.

Maulana Maududi Sahab says in Tafheem-ul-Qur’an:

The real relation between Al-Fatihah and the Quran is not that of an introduction to a book but that of a prayer and its answer. Al-Fatihah is the prayer from the servant and the Quran is the answer from the Master to his prayer. The servant prays to Allah to show him guidance and the Master places the whole of the Quran before him in answer to his prayer, as if to say, "This is the Guidance you begged from Me."

WHAT TO READ?📚

I am assuming that you guys have already read the book I recommended last week so today I am going to talk about the second part of JAB ZINDAGI SHURU HOGI which is QASAM US WAQT KI. The story continues from there but now the central character is an Atheist girl who really doesn’t believe in GOD and has a lot of questions. The book answers all of her questions in the best of ways. I can’t explain all questions but in short, these are questions with which west is trying to manipulate our kid. So give it a read.

here is the link to download or order the book.

I think for today it’s enough as I am writing it a second time because the first time I completed it and forget to save it. So now it’s my time for studying. See you all next week Insha’Allah.

FI AMAN ALLAH
