Quran 39:29~31 (Ayah az-Zumar)
Allah sets forth the parable of a slave owned by several quarrelsome masters, and a slave owned by only one master. Are they equal in condition? Praise be to Allah! In fact, most of them do not know. You ˹O Prophet˺ will certainly die, and they will die too. Then on the Day of Judgment you will ˹all settle your˺ dispute before your Lord. Quran 39:29~31 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.
ضَرَبَ ٱللَّهُ مَثَلࣰا رَّجُلࣰا فِیهِ شُرَكَاۤءُ مُتَشَـٰكِسُونَ وَرَجُلࣰا سَلَمࣰا لِّرَجُلٍ هَلۡ یَسۡتَوِیَانِ مَثَلًاۚ ٱلۡحَمۡدُ لِلَّهِۚ بَلۡ أَكۡثَرُهُمۡ لَا یَعۡلَمُونَ إِنَّكَ مَیِّتࣱ وَإِنَّهُم مَّیِّتُونَ ثُمَّ إِنَّكُمۡ یَوۡمَ ٱلۡقِیَـٰمَةِ عِندَ رَبِّكُمۡ تَخۡتَصِمُونَ
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.
اللہ ایک مثال دیتا ہے ایک شخص تو وہ ہے جس کی ملکیت میں بہت سے کج خلق آقا شریک ہیں جو اسے اپنی اپنی طرف کھینچتے ہیں اور دوسرا شخص پورا کا پورا ایک ہی آقا کا غلام ہے کیا ان دونوں کا حال یکساں ہو سکتا ہے؟ الحمدللہ، مگر اکثر لوگ نادانی میں پڑے ہوئے ہیں (اے نبیؐ) تمہیں بھی مرنا ہے اور اِن لوگوں کو بھی مرنا ہے آخرکار قیامت کے روز تم سب اپنے رب کے حضور اپنا اپنا مقدمہ پیش کرو گے
