Hadees: Musnad Ahmed 11133 (Fate of Supplications)

Abu Sa‘īd (R.A.) reported that the Prophet (ﷺ) said: "No Muslim invokes Allah with a supplication that does not involve sin or severing ties of kinship, except that Allah (Most High) will grant him one of three things due to it: either His supplication will be answered swiftly, or it is stored for him (as a reward) in the afterlife, or He will avert from him an equivalent amount of harm." They said: in that case we will increase (our supplication). He (ﷺ) said: "Allah is abundant (in bounty).’” Hadees: Musnad Ahmad - 11133

حضرت ابوسعید خدری رضی اللہ عنہ مروی ہے کہ نبی صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے فرمایا جو مسلمان کوئی ایسی دعاء کرے جس میں گناہ یا قطع رحمی کا کوئی پہلو نہ ہو، اللہ اسے تین میں سے کوئی ایک چیز ضرور عطاء فرماتے ہیں، یا تو فوراً ہی اس کی دعاء قبول کرلی جاتی ہے، یا آخرت کے لئے ذخیرہ کرلی جاتی ہے، یا اس سے اس جیسی کوئی تکلیف دور کردی جاتی ہے، صحابہ رضی اللہ عنہ نے عرض کیا اس طرح تو پھر ہم بہت کثرت کریں گے؟ نبی صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے فرمایا اللہ اس سے بھی زیادہ کثرت والا ہے

Quran 4 : 36(Partial) ~ 39

Surely Allah does not like whoever is arrogant, boastful— those who are stingy, promote stinginess among people, and withhold Allah’s bounties. We have prepared for the disbelievers a humiliating punishment. Likewise for those who spend their wealth to show off and do not believe in Allah or the Last Day. And whoever takes Satan as an associate— what an evil associate they have! What harm could have come to them if they had believed in Allah and the Last Day and donated from what Allah has provided for them? And Allah has ˹perfect˺ knowledge of them. Quran 4: 36 (partial) to 39 Surah an-Nisa` (Women)
An-Nisa’ (Arabic: ٱلنساء, An-Nisāʾ; meaning: The Women) is the fourth chapter (sūrah) of the Quran, with 176 verses (āyāt).
The title derives from the numerous references to women throughout the chapter, including verse 34 and verses 127-130.

إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ لَا یُحِبُّ مَن كَانَ مُخۡتَالࣰا فَخُورًا ٱلَّذِینَ یَبۡخَلُونَ وَیَأۡمُرُونَ ٱلنَّاسَ بِٱلۡبُخۡلِ وَیَكۡتُمُونَ مَاۤ ءَاتَىٰهُمُ ٱللَّهُ مِن فَضۡلِهِۦۗ وَأَعۡتَدۡنَا لِلۡكَـٰفِرِینَ عَذَابࣰا مُّهِینࣰا وَٱلَّذِینَ یُنفِقُونَ أَمۡوَ ٰلَهُمۡ رِئَاۤءَ ٱلنَّاسِ وَلَا یُؤۡمِنُونَ بِٱللَّهِ وَلَا بِٱلۡیَوۡمِ ٱلۡءَاخِرِۗ وَمَن یَكُنِ ٱلشَّیۡطَـٰنُ لَهُۥ قَرِینࣰا فَسَاۤءَ قَرِینࣰا وَمَاذَا عَلَیۡهِمۡ لَوۡ ءَامَنُوا۟ بِٱللَّهِ وَٱلۡیَوۡمِ ٱلۡءَاخِرِ وَأَنفَقُوا۟ مِمَّا رَزَقَهُمُ ٱللَّهُۚ وَكَانَ ٱللَّهُ بِهِمۡ عَلِیمًا
According to many scholars, the Surah was revealed after the Battle of Uhud, which left 70 of the Muslims killed.
This situation brought about the need to address issues such as inheritance left by those killed etc.
Hence in Surah an-Nisa, Allah Almighty address issues such as dealing with orphans [including children of those killed at Uhud] and inheritance.
خدا تکبر کرنے والے بڑائی مارنے والے کو دوست نہیں رکھتا جو خود بھی بخل کریں اور لوگوں کو بھی بخل سکھائیں اور جو (مال) خدا نے ان کو اپنے فضل سے عطا فرمایا ہے اسے چھپا چھپا کے رکھیں اور ہم نے ناشکروں کے لئے ذلت کا عذاب تیار کر رکھا ہے اور خرچ بھی کریں تو (خدا کے لئے نہیں بلکہ) لوگوں کے دکھانے کو اور ایمان نہ خدا پر لائیں اور نہ روز آخرت پر (ایسے لوگوں کو ساتھی شیطان ہے) اور جس کا ساتھی شیطان ہوا تو (کچھ شک نہیں کہ) وہ برا ساتھی ہے اور اگر یہ لوگ خدا پر اور روز قیامت پر ایمان لاتے اور جو کچھ خدا نے ان کو دیا تھا اس میں سے خرچ کرتے تو ان کا کیا نقصان ہوتا اور خدا ان کو خوب جانتا ہے

Quran 40:1~3

Ḥâ-Mĩm. The revelation of this Book is from Allah— the Almighty, All-Knowing, the Forgiver of sin and Accepter of repentance, the Severe in punishment, and Infinite in bounty. There is no god ˹worthy of worship˺ except Him. To Him ˹alone˺ is the final return. Quran 40:1~3 Surah Ghafir (The Forgiver)
Ghafir (Arabic: غافر, ghāfir; meaning:
“The All-Forgiving”, referring to God), also known as Al-Muʼmin (Arabic: المؤمن, ’al-mu’min; meaning:
The Believer), is the 40th chapter (sūrah) of the Qur’an, with 85 verses (āyāt).

There are seven Surahs (al-Mu’min, HaMim al-Sajdah, al-Shura, al-Zukhruf, al-Dukhan, al-Jathiyah, al-Ahqaf) that begin with the word “HaMim”.
Thus these seven Surahs are also called “al-Hawamim”.
These are Surahs of Da’wah, inviting people to believe in Allah, take advantage of the mercy of Allah.
There is solace and comfort in these Surahs for the Believers who were persecuted because of their faith and they are given the good news that the truth will prevail.
ح م اِس کتاب کا نزول اللہ کی طرف سے ہے جو زبردست ہے، سب کچھ جاننے والا ہے گناہ معاف کرنے والا اور توبہ قبول کرنے والا ہے، سخت سزا دینے والا اور بڑا صاحب فضل ہے کوئی معبود اس کے سوا نہیں، اُسی کی طرف سب کو پلٹنا ہے

Quran 2:198~199

There is no blame on you for seeking the bounty of your Lord ˹during this journey˺. When you return from ’Arafât, praise Allah near the sacred place and praise Him for having guided you, for surely before this ˹guidance˺ you were astray. Then go forth with the rest of the pilgrims. And seek Allah’s forgiveness. Surely Allah is All-Forgiving, Most Merciful. Quran 2:198~199 Surah al-Baqarah (The Cow)
Al-Baqara, alternatively transliterated Al-Baqarah (Arabic: البقرة, ’al-baqarah; lit. “The Heifer” or “The Cow”), is the second and longest chapter (surah) of the Quran. It consists of 286 verses (āyāt) which begin with the “muqatta’at” A.L.M.

لَیۡسَ عَلَیۡكُمۡ جُنَاحٌ أَن تَبۡتَغُوا۟ فَضۡلࣰا مِّن رَّبِّكُمۡۚ فَإِذَاۤ أَفَضۡتُم مِّنۡ عَرَفَـٰتࣲ فَٱذۡكُرُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ عِندَ ٱلۡمَشۡعَرِ ٱلۡحَرَامِۖ وَٱذۡكُرُوهُ كَمَا هَدَىٰكُمۡ وَإِن كُنتُم مِّن قَبۡلِهِۦ لَمِنَ ٱلضَّاۤلِّینَ ثُمَّ أَفِیضُوا۟ مِنۡ حَیۡثُ أَفَاضَ ٱلنَّاسُ وَٱسۡتَغۡفِرُوا۟ ٱللَّهَۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ غَفُورࣱ رَّحِیمࣱ
The surah encompasses a variety of topics and contains several commands for Muslims such as enjoining fasting on the believer during the month of Ramadan; forbidding interest or usury (riba); and several famous verses such as The Throne Verse, Al-Baqara 256, and the final two or three verses. The surah addresses a wide variety of topics, including substantial amounts of law, and retells stories of Adam, Ibrahim (Abraham) and Musa (Moses). A major theme is guidance: urging the pagans (Al-Mushrikeen) and the Jews of Medina to embrace Islam, and warning them and the hypocrites (Munafiqun) of the fate God had visited in the past on those who failed to heed his call.
اور اگر حج کے ساتھ ساتھ اپنے رب کا فضل بھی تلاش کرتے جاؤ، تو اس میں کوئی مضائقہ نہں پھر جب عرفات سے چلو، تو مشعر حرام (مزدلفہ) کے پاس ٹھیر کر اللہ کو یاد کرو اور اُس طرح یاد کرو، جس کی ہدایت اس نے تمہیں دی ہے، ورنہ اس سے پہلے تم لوگ بھٹکے ہوئے تھے پھر جہاں سے سب لوگ پلٹتے ہیں وہیں سے تم بھی پلٹو اور اللہ سے معافی چاہو، یقیناً وہ معاف کرنے والا اور رحم فرمانے والا ہے

Quran 9:75~78

And there are some who had made a vow to Allah: “If He gives us from His bounty, we will surely spend in charity and be of the righteous.” But when He gave them out of His bounty, they withheld it and turned away indifferently. So He caused hypocrisy to plague their hearts until the Day they will meet Him, for breaking their promise to Allah and for their lies. Do they not know that Allah ˹fully˺ knows their ˹evil˺ thoughts and secret talks, and that Allah is the Knower of all unseen ? QURAN 9:75~78 (Surah at-Taubah, The Repentance)
The name of the surah, at-Taubah is derived from ت و ب and it occurs 87 times in the Quran. Interestingly, this surah has the highest usage of the words derived from ت و ب compared to all other surahs – it is used 17 times.
In Ayat 118, occurs the case of the three companions whom Allah turned to and accepted their tawbah to Him – those who had abstained from joining the Jihad at the Battle of Tabuk.

وَمِنۡهُم مَّنۡ عَـٰهَدَ ٱللَّهَ لَىِٕنۡ ءَاتَىٰنَا مِن فَضۡلِهِۦ لَنَصَّدَّقَنَّ وَلَنَكُونَنَّ مِنَ ٱلصَّـٰلِحِینَ۞ فَلَمَّاۤ ءَاتَىٰهُم مِّن فَضۡلِهِۦ بَخِلُوا۟ بِهِۦ وَتَوَلَّوا۟ وَّهُم مُّعۡرِضُونَ فَأَعۡقَبَهُمۡ نِفَاقࣰا فِی قُلُوبِهِمۡ إِلَىٰ یَوۡمِ یَلۡقَوۡنَهُۥ بِمَاۤ أَخۡلَفُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ مَا وَعَدُوهُ وَبِمَا كَانُوا۟ یَكۡذِبُونَ أَلَمۡ یَعۡلَمُوۤا۟ أَنَّ ٱللَّهَ یَعۡلَمُ سِرَّهُمۡ وَنَجۡوَىٰهُمۡ وَأَنَّ ٱللَّهَ عَلَّـٰمُ ٱلۡغُیُوبِ
This is the only Sūrah of the Qur’ān to which ‘In the Name of God, Most Gracious Most Merciful’ is not prefixed. Though the commentators have given different reasons for this, the correct one that which has been given by Imām Razi: namely this is because the Prophet himself did not dictate it at the beginning of the Sūrah. Therefore the Companions did not prefix it and their successors followed them. This is a further proof of the fact that utmost care has been taken to keep the Qur’ān intact so that it should remain in its complete and original form.
The basic subjects of the Surah are: The non-believers who broke their treaties, Muslims have no obligation to honor treaties with them. Muslims must protect themselves from hypocrisy, weak faith and negligence. Battle of Tabuk and its lessons.

Sections:
Proclamation that the Treaty of Hudaibiyah is cancelled.
Honor the treaties with those who honor them. Fight with those who have broken the treaty.

Quran 33:45~48

O Prophet! We have sent you as a witness, and a deliverer of good news, and a warner, and a caller to ˹the Way of˺ Allah by His command, and a beacon of light. Give good news to the believers that they will have a great bounty from Allah. Do not yield to the disbelievers and the hypocrites. Overlook their annoyances, and put your trust in Allah. For Allah is sufficient as a Trustee of Affairs. Quran 33:45~48 (Surah al_Ahzab, the combined Forces)
The Surah takes its name, al-Ahzab [confederates/groups] from the Ayat, وَلَمَّا رَأَى الْمُؤْمِنُونَ الْأَحْزَابَ قَالُوا هَـٰذَا مَا وَعَدَنَا اللَّـهُ وَرَسُولُهُ وَصَدَقَ اللَّـهُ وَرَسُولُهُ ۚ وَمَا زَادَهُمْ إِلَّا إِيمَانًا وَتَسْلِيمًا “And when the believers saw the confederates, they said, “This is what Allah and His Messenger had promised us, and Allah and His Messenger spoke the truth.” And it increased them only in faith and acceptance.” (33:22)
There are 73 Ayat in this Surah.

Quran 17:26~28

Give to close relatives their due, as well as the poor and ˹needy˺ travellers. And do not spend wastefully. Surely the wasteful are ˹like˺ brothers to the devils. And the Devil is ever ungrateful to his Lord. But if you must turn them down ˹because you lack the means to give˺— while hoping to receive your Lord’s bounty— then ˹at least˺ give them a kind word.

Al-Isrāʾ (Arabic: الإسراء; meaning: The Night Journey), also known as Banī Isrāʾīl (Arabic: بني إسرائيل; meaning:
The Children of Israel) is the 17th chapter (sūrah) of the Quran, with 111 verses (āyāt).

The word Isra’ refers to the “night journey” of the prophet Muhammad.
This surah is part of a series al-Musabbihat surahs because it begins with the glorification of God.
اور رشتہ داروں اور محتاجوں اور مسافروں کو ان کا حق ادا کرو۔ اور فضول خرچی سے مال نہ اُڑاؤ کہ فضول خرچی کرنے والے تو شیطان کے بھائی ہیں۔ اور شیطان اپنے پروردگار (کی نعمتوں) کا کفر ان کرنے والا (یعنی ناشکرا) ہے اور اگر تم نے اپنے پروردگار کی رحمت (یعنی فراخ دستی) کے انتظار میں جس کی تمہیں امید ہو ان (مستحقین) کی طرف توجہ نہ کرسکو اُن سے نرمی سے بات کہہ دیا کرو
This surah takes its name from the first verse which, in Islamic tradition, tells the event of the Isra,
the transportation of Muhammad during the night from the Great Mosque of Mecca to what is referred to as “the farthest Mosque”.”
The exact location is specified in the Qurran in Arabic words أَسۡرَىٰ بِعَبۡدِهِۦ لَيۡلٗا مِّنَ ٱلۡمَسۡجِدِ ٱلۡحَرَامِ إِلَى ٱلۡمَسۡجِدِ ٱلۡأَقۡصَا but this is commonly taken to Noble Sanctuary (Temple Mount) in Jerusalem. Some scholars disagree about this (see Isra and Mi’raj) lively .
While the city of Jerusalem (or al Quds , Al-Aqsa mosque) is mentioned by name anywhere in the Qur’an,[citation needed]
The first verse refers to Mohammed being taken from the ‘Masjid ul-harram’ to the ‘Masjid al-Aqsa’:
Glory to (Allah) Who did take His servant for a Journey by night from the Sacred Mosque to the farthest Mosque, whose precincts We (God) did bless,-
so that We might show him some of Our Signs: for He is the One Who heareth and seeth (all things).

Quran 17:18~21

Whoever desires this fleeting world ˹alone˺, We hasten in it whatever We please to whoever We will; then We destine them for Hell, where they will burn, condemned and rejected. But whoever desires the Hereafter and strives for it accordingly, and is a ˹true˺ believer, it is they whose striving will be appreciated. We provide both the former and the latter from the bounty of your Lord. And the bounty of your Lord can never be withheld. See how We have favoured some over others ˹in this life˺, but the Hereafter is certainly far greater in rank and in favour. Quran 17:18~21

جو کوئی دنیا چاہتا ہے تو ہم اسے سردست دنیا میں سے جس قدر چاہتے ہیں دیتے ہیں پھر ہم نے اس کے لیے جہنم تیار کر رکھی ہے جس میں وہ ذلیل و خوار ہوکر رہے گا اورجو آخرت چاہتا ہے اوراس کے لیے مناسب کوشش بھی کرتا ہے اور وہ مومن بھی ہے تو ایسے لوگوں کی کوشش مقبول ہو گی ہم ہر فریق کو اپنی پروردگاری بخششوں سے مدد دیتے ہیں ان کو بھی اور تیرے رب کی بخشش کسی پر بند نہیں دیکھو ہم نے ایک کو دوسرے پر کیسی فضیلت دی ہے اور آخرت کے تو بڑے درجے اوربڑی فضیلت ہے
This surah takes its name from the first verse which, in Islamic tradition, tells the event of the Isra,
the transportation of Muhammad during the night from the Great Mosque of Mecca to what is referred to as “the farthest Mosque”.”
The exact location is specified in the Qurran in Arabic words أَسۡرَىٰ بِعَبۡدِهِۦ لَيۡلٗا مِّنَ ٱلۡمَسۡجِدِ ٱلۡحَرَامِ إِلَى ٱلۡمَسۡجِدِ ٱلۡأَقۡصَا but this is commonly taken to Noble Sanctuary (Temple Mount) in Jerusalem. Some scholars disagree about this (see Isra and Mi’raj) lively .
While the city of Jerusalem (or al Quds , Al-Aqsa mosque) is mentioned by name anywhere in the Qur’an,[citation needed]
The first verse refers to Mohammed being taken from the ‘Masjid ul-harram’ to the ‘Masjid al-Aqsa’:
Glory to (Allah) Who did take His servant for a Journey by night from the Sacred Mosque to the farthest Mosque, whose precincts We (God) did bless,-
so that We might show him some of Our Signs: for He is the One Who heareth and seeth (all things).
