TAFSEER OF SŪRAH AN-NAAZI'AAT (Qur'an 79) continues

 *_DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER_*

Yaumul ahad | 26th day of Safar, 1448 AH | Sunday, 9th August, 2026. *_TAFSEER OF SŪRAH AN-NAAZI'AAT (Qur'an 79) continues_*. BismilLah


Let's continue with our studies of suurah An-Naazi'aat from verse 34 to 41 which speaks about "The fate of the people of Paradise and Hell".


In verses 27–33, ALLAH Azzawajal reminded mankind of HIS tremendous power: HE Azzawajal created the heavens, established the earth, brought forth water and vegetation, and placed the mountains firmly upon it. Now ALLAH Azzawajal brings the discussion back to the Hereafter. After describing the blessings we enjoy in this life, HE warns us that a day is coming when this temporary worldly life will come to an end. On that Day, people will be divided according to how they lived.


The passage presents two completely different paths:

Those who transgressed and preferred the worldly life. Those who feared standing before ALLAH Azzawajal and restrained themselves from sinful desires.


Verse 34

فَإِذَا جَاءَتِ الطَّامَّةُ الْكُبْرَىٰ

"But when the greatest catastrophe comes." At-Ṭāmmah al-Kubrā means the greatest overwhelming calamity. It refers to the Day of Resurrection, when the events of the Last Day will overwhelm everything that came before.

The word طَامَّة (ṭāmmah) carries the meaning of something that overwhelms and surpasses everything.


ALLAH Azzawajal describes the Day of Judgment in different places with different names, each highlighting one of its terrifying characteristics:

Yawm al-Qiyāmah, The Day of Resurrection. Yawm ad-Dīn, The Day of Recompense. Yawm al-Ḥisāb, The Day of Account.

Al-Ḥāqqah — The Inevitable Reality.

Aṭ-Ṭāmmah al-Kubrā, The Greatest Overwhelming Event. This should make us realise that this world is not our final destination. To be continued tomorrow in Shaa ALLAH. *_May ALLAH Azzawajal keep guiding and protecting us from any satanic influences_*. Aameen.

HELPING OTHERS WITH INTENTION FOR ALLAH'S HELP IN RETURN

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yaum Al-Khamis, 22nd day of Jumaadal Uula 1447AH, Thursday, 13th November, 2025.  *_HELPING OTHERS WITH INTENTION FOR ALLAH'S HELP IN RETURN_*. BismilLah.  When we help our brothers and sisters in Islam, in reality, we are helping ourselves. The Messenger of ALLAH (S.A.W) said: He who relieves the hardship of a believer in this world, ALLAH Azzawajallah will relieve his hardship on the Day of Judgment. He who makes easy what is difficult, ALLAH ALLAH Azzawajallah will make it easy for him in the world and the hereafter. He who conceals the faults of a Muslim, ALLAH ALLAH Azzawajallah will conceal his faults in this ALLAH Azzawajallah world and the Hereafter, for ALLAH helps the servant as long as he helps his brother. Source: Ṣaḥīḥ "Muslim 2699. AlhamdulilLah.  With this I hope with immediate effect we will all strive to help each other in any possible way such as making dua for each other, supporting our relatives and those in need in ou...

NOTHING HAPPENS WITHOUT THE PERMISSION OF ALLAH

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm Arba'a. 29th day of Shaw'waal, 1445AH (Wednesday 8th May 2024). *_NOTHING HAPPENS WITHOUT THE PERMISSION OF ALLAH_*. BismilLah.  Even though feelings of Panic, stress/worries etc are part of life, they must not reduce our acts of worship or trust in ALLAH. The more a man turns to ALLAH and focuses on HIM, the more he will feel a sense of peace and comfort, to an extent that no one knows except ALLAH. Hence those who know ALLAH, are close to HIM and fear HIM are the happiest of people, to such an extent that one of them said, in a well-known expression: “If the kings and the sons of kings knew what joy we have, they would fight us for it with the sword.” This is also what is expressed in the Qur’an, as ALLAH says: “Whoever works righteousness, whether male or female, while he (or she) is a true believer (of Islamic Monotheism) verily, to him ALLAH will give a good life (in this world with respect, contentment and lawful provision), and ALLAH will ...

BEST TIME FOR TAHAJJUD

 *BEST TIME FOR TAHAJJUD* It is best to delay this prayer to the last third portion of the night. Abu Hurairah reports that the Messenger of Allah said: "Our Lord descends to the lowest heaven during the last third of the night, inquiring: 'Who will call on Me so that I may respond to him? Who is asking something of Me so I may give it to him? Who is asking for My forgiveness so I may forgive him?"' This is related by the group. 'Amr ibn Abasah reports that he heard the Prophet say: "The closest that a slave comes to his Lord is during the middle of the latter portion of the night. If you can be among those who remember Allah, the Exalted One, at that time then do so." This is related by al-Hakim who grades it sahih according to Muslim's standards, and at-Tirmizhi calls it hasan sahih. AnNasa'i and Ibn Khuzaimah also recorded it. Abu Muslim asked Abu Zharr: "Which late-night prayer is the best?" He said: "I asked the Messenger of A...
