Quran 39:22 (Ayah az-Zumar)
Can ˹the misguided be like˺ those whose hearts Allah has opened to Islam, so they are enlightened by their Lord? So woe to those whose hearts are hardened at the remembrance of Allah! It is they who are clearly astray. Quran 39:22 Surah az-Zumar (The Troops, Throngs, The Companies)
The Surah takes its name from the mention of ‘az-Zumar’ in (39:71) and (39:73). These are the only mention of the words zumar in the whole Qur’an. There are 88 Ayat in this Surah.
أَفَمَن شَرَحَ ٱللَّهُ صَدۡرَهُۥ لِلۡإِسۡلَـٰمِ فَهُوَ عَلَىٰ نُورࣲ مِّن رَّبِّهِۦۚ فَوَیۡلࣱ لِّلۡقَـٰسِیَةِ قُلُوبُهُم مِّن ذِكۡرِ ٱللَّهِۚ أُو۟لَـٰۤىِٕكَ فِی ضَلَـٰلࣲ مُّبِینٍ
The Surah talks about the true religion. It is to serve Allah sincerely and to avoid Shirk. Tawhid brings the blessings of Allah, while Shirk has terrible consequences. The Believers are told not to despair and lose heart. If it is difficult for them to practice their religion in one place, they can migrate from that land. The unbelievers are told that they can do whatever they wish, but they cannot turn the Believers away from the path of faith.
بھلا جس شخص کا سینہ خدا نے اسلام کے لئے کھول دیا ہو اور وہ اپنے پروردگار کی طرف سے روشنی پر ہو (تو کیا وہ سخت دل کافر کی طرح ہوسکتا ہے) پس ان پر افسوس ہے جن کے دل خدا کی یاد سے سخت ہو رہے ہیں۔ اور یہی لوگ صریح گمراہی میں ہیں
