Quran 92:12~21

It is certainly upon Us ˹alone˺ to show ˹the way to˺ guidance. And surely to Us ˹alone˺ belong this life and the next. And so I have warned you of a raging Fire, in which none will burn except the most wretched— who deny and turn away. But the righteous will be spared from it— who donate ˹some of˺ their wealth only to purify themselves, not in return for someone’s favours, but seeking the pleasure of their Lord, the Most High. They will certainly be pleased. Quran 92:12~21 [ Surah al-Layl , The Night ]
The Surah takes its name from the first Ayat,
وَاللَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَىٰ “By the night when it covers” [92:1].
There are 21 Ayat in this Surah.

إِنَّ عَلَیۡنَا لَلۡهُدَىٰ وَإِنَّ لَنَا لَلۡءَاخِرَةَ وَٱلۡأُولَىٰ فَأَنذَرۡتُكُمۡ نَارࣰا تَلَظَّىٰ لَا یَصۡلَىٰهَاۤ إِلَّا ٱلۡأَشۡقَى ٱلَّذِی كَذَّبَ وَتَوَلَّىٰ وَسَیُجَنَّبُهَا ٱلۡأَتۡقَى ٱلَّذِی یُؤۡتِی مَالَهُۥ یَتَزَكَّىٰ وَمَا لِأَحَدٍ عِندَهُۥ مِن نِّعۡمَةࣲ تُجۡزَىٰۤ إِلَّا ٱبۡتِغَاۤءَ وَجۡهِ رَبِّهِ ٱلۡأَعۡلَىٰ وَلَسَوۡفَ یَرۡضَىٰ
It has basically the same theme as the previous Surah,
but it tells us about the two ways of life:
good way and evil way and the consequences of both ways.
بے شک راستہ بتانا ہمارے ذمہ ہے اور درحقیقت آخرت اور دنیا، دونوں کے ہم ہی مالک ہیں پس میں نے تم کو خبردار کر دیا ہے بھڑکتی ہوئی آگ سے اُس میں نہیں جھلسے گا مگر وہ انتہائی بد بخت جس نے جھٹلایا اور منہ پھیرا اور اُس سے دور رکھا جائیگا وہ نہایت پرہیزگار جو پاکیزہ ہونے کی خاطر اپنا مال دیتا ہے اُس پر کسی کا کوئی احسان نہیں ہے جس کا بدلہ اُسے دینا ہو وہ تو صرف اپنے رب برتر کی رضا جوئی کے لیے یہ کام کرتا ہے اور ضرور وہ (اُس سے) خوش ہوگا
Its theme is to distinguish between the two different ways of life and to explain the contrast between their ultimate ends and results. In view of the subject matter this Surah consists of two parts, the first part consisting of v. 1-11 and the second of v. 12-21.

Quran 13:19~24

“Can the one who knows that your Lord’s revelation to you ˹O Prophet˺ is the truth be like the one who is blind? None will be mindful ˹of this˺ except people of reason. ˹They are˺ those who honour Allah’s covenant, never breaking the pledge; and those who maintain whatever ˹ties˺ Allah has ordered to be maintained, stand in awe of their Lord, and fear strict judgment. And ˹they are˺ those who endure patiently, seeking their Lord’s pleasure, establish prayer, donate from what We have provided for them—secretly and openly—and respond to evil with good. It is they who will have the ultimate abode: the Gardens of Eternity, which they will enter along with the righteous among their parents, spouses, and descendants. And the angels will enter upon them from every gate, ˹saying,˺ “Peace be upon you for your perseverance. How excellent is the ultimate abode!” Quran 13:19~24
The word ar-Ra’d (thunder), which this Surah is named after, is used in the 13th Surah of the Qur’an, in the 13th Juzz and is the 13th Ayat.
This Surah has 43 Ayaat.

The basic theme of the Surah is divine guidance.
Allah has created this whole universe.
He knows what is in the wombs and every thing is under His knowledge.
He sent His prophets and guides to all people for their guidance
and now the Last Messenger has come.
بھلا یہ کس طرح ممکن ہے کہ وہ شخص جو تمہارے رب کی اِس کتاب کو جو اس نے تم پر نازل کی ہے حق جانتا ہے، اور وہ شخص جو اس حقیقت کی طرف سے اندھا ہے، دونوں یکساں ہو جائیں؟ نصیحت تو دانش مند لوگ ہی قبول کیا کرتے ہیں اور اُن کا طرز عمل یہ ہوتا ہے کہ اللہ کے ساتھ اپنے عہد کو پورا کرتے ہیں، اُسے مضبوط باندھنے کے بعد توڑ نہیں ڈالتے اُن کی روش یہ ہوتی ہے کہ اللہ نے جن جن روابط کو برقرار رکھنے کا حکم دیا ہے انہیں برقرار رکھتے ہیں، اپنے رب سے ڈرتے ہیں اور اس بات کا خوف رکھتے ہیں کہ کہیں ان سے بری طرح حساب نہ لیا جائے اُن کا حال یہ ہوتا ہے کہ اپنے رب کی رضا کے لیے صبر سے کام لیتے ہیں، نماز قائم کرتے ہیں، ہمارے دیے ہوئے رزق میں سے علانیہ اور پوشیدہ خرچ کرتے ہیں، اور برائی کو بھلائی سے دفع کرتے ہیں آخرت کا گھر انہی لوگوں کے لیے ہے یعنی ایسے باغ جو اُن کی ابدی قیام گاہ ہوں گے وہ خود بھی ان میں داخل ہوں گے اور ان کے آباؤ اجداد اور اُن کی بیویوں اور اُن کی اولاد میں سے جو جو صالح ہیں وہ بھی اُن کے ساتھ وہاں جائیں گے ملائکہ ہر طرف سے اُن کے استقبال کے لیے آئیں گے اور اُن سے کہیں گے کہ "تم پر سلامتی ہے، تم نے دنیا میں جس طرح صبر سے کام لیا اُس کی بدولت آج تم اِس کے مستحق ہوئے ہو" پس کیا ہی خوب ہے یہ آخرت کا گھر!

Quran 3:15~16

Say, ˹O Prophet,˺ “Shall I inform you of what is better than ˹all of˺ this? Those mindful ˹of Allah˺ will have Gardens with their Lord under which rivers flow, to stay there forever, and pure spouses, along with Allah’s pleasure.” And Allah is All-Seeing of ˹His˺ servants, who pray, “Our Lord! We have believed, so forgive our sins and protect us from the torment of the Fire.” Quran 3:15~16
Al Imran (Arabic: آل عمران, āl ʿimrān; meaning: The Family of Imran) is the third chapter (sūrah) of the Quran with two hundred verses (āyāt).

قُلۡ أَؤُنَبِّئُكُم بِخَیۡرࣲ مِّن ذَ ٰلِكُمۡۖ لِلَّذِینَ ٱتَّقَوۡا۟ عِندَ رَبِّهِمۡ جَنَّـٰتࣱ تَجۡرِی مِن تَحۡتِهَا ٱلۡأَنۡهَـٰرُ خَـٰلِدِینَ فِیهَا وَأَزۡوَ ٰجࣱ مُّطَهَّرَةࣱ وَرِضۡوَ ٰنࣱ مِّنَ ٱللَّهِۗ وَٱللَّهُ بَصِیرُۢ بِٱلۡعِبَادِ ٱلَّذِینَ یَقُولُونَ رَبَّنَاۤ إِنَّنَاۤ ءَامَنَّا فَٱغۡفِرۡ لَنَا ذُنُوبَنَا وَقِنَا عَذَابَ ٱلنَّارِ
It is named after Ale-Imran ‘the family of Imran’ – Imran being the grandfather of Jesus [Isa], and the father of Mary [Maryam]. Other than this Surah, Imran is not mentioned in the rest of the Qur’an with the exception of Surah 66: at-Tahreem – ‘Maryam daughter of Imran’ [66:12].
Zahra – The Prophet is reported to have called al-Baqarah and Ale-Imran as ‘Zahrawayn’ [Two Lights (of guidance)]
تم فرماؤ کیا میں تمہیں اس سے بہتر چیز بتادوں پرہیزگاروں کے لئے ان کے رب کے پاس جنتیں ہیں جن کے نیچے نہریں رواں ہمیشہ ان میں رہیں گے اور پاکيزہ بيوياں اور اللہ کی خوشنودی اور اللہ بندوں کو دیکھتا ہے وہ جو کہتے ہیں اے رب ہمارے! ہم ایمان لائے تو ہمارے گناہ معاف کر اور ہمیں دوزخ کے عذاب سے بچالے،
The main topics of this Surah are Tawhid, Prophethood and the truth of the Qur’ an. As Surah al-Baqarah discussed the issues related to Bani Israel, this Surah discusses some issues related to the Christian community and their religious positions. It also discusses the subjects of Hajj, Jihad, Zakat and Riba. It ends, like Surah al-Baqarah, with a profound dua.

Quran 9:20~22

Those who have believed, emigrated, and strived in the cause of Allah with their wealth and their lives are greater in rank in the sight of Allah. It is they who will triumph. Their Lord gives them good news of His mercy, pleasure, and Gardens with everlasting bliss, to stay there for ever and ever. Surely with Allah is a great reward. Quran 9:20~22
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.

ٱلَّذِینَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَهَاجَرُوا۟ وَجَـٰهَدُوا۟ فِی سَبِیلِ ٱللَّهِ بِأَمۡوَ ٰلِهِمۡ وَأَنفُسِهِمۡ أَعۡظَمُ دَرَجَةً عِندَ ٱللَّهِۚ وَأُو۟لَـٰۤىِٕكَ هُمُ ٱلۡفَاۤىِٕزُونَ یُبَشِّرُهُمۡ رَبُّهُم بِرَحۡمَةࣲ مِّنۡهُ وَرِضۡوَ ٰنࣲ وَجَنَّـٰتࣲ لَّهُمۡ فِیهَا نَعِیمࣱ مُّقِیمٌ خَـٰلِدِینَ فِیهَاۤ أَبَدًاۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ عِندَهُۥۤ أَجۡرٌ عَظِیمࣱ
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.
اللہ کے ہاں تو انہی لوگوں کا درجہ بڑا ہے جو ایمان لائے اور جنہوں نے اس کی راہ میں گھر بار چھوڑے اور جان و مال سے جہاد کیا وہی کامیاب ہیں ان کا رب انہیں اپنی رحمت اور خوشنودی اور ایسی جنتوں کی بشارت دیتا ہے جہاں ان کے لیے پائیدار عیش کے سامان ہیں ان میں وہ ہمیشہ رہیں گے یقیناً اللہ کے پاس خدمات کا صلہ دینے کو بہت کچھ ہے
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.

Quran 102:1-8

Competition for more ˹gains˺ diverts you ˹from Allah˺, until you end up in ˹your˺ graves. But no! You will soon come to know. Again, no! You will soon come to know. Indeed, if you were to know ˹your fate˺ with certainty, ˹you would have acted differently˺. ˹But˺ you will surely see the Hellfire. Again, you will surely see it with the eye of certainty. Then, on that Day, you will definitely be questioned about ˹your worldly˺ pleasures. Quran 102:1~8, Surah at-Takathur (Competition, Worldly Gain)
This Surah takes its name from the first Ayat, أَلْهَاكُمُ التَّكَاثُرُ “Competition in [worldly] increase diverts you” [102:1]
There are 8 Ayat in this Surah.

The Surah talks about the evil consequences of materialism and this worldliness.
(لوگو) تم کو (مال کی) بہت سی طلب نے غافل کر دیا یہاں تک کہ تم نے قبریں جا دیکھیں دیکھو تمہیں عنقریب معلوم ہو جائے گا پھر دیکھو تمہیں عنقریب معلوم ہو جائے گا دیکھو اگر تم جانتے (یعنی) علم الیقین (رکھتے تو غفلت نہ کرتے) تم ضرور دوزخ کو دیکھو گے پھر اس کو (ایسا) دیکھو گے (کہ) عین الیقین (آ جائے گا) پھر اس روز تم سے (شکر) نعمت کے بارے میں پرسش ہو گی
In it the people have been warned of the evil consequences of world worship because of which they spend their lives in acquiring more and more of worldly wealth, material benefits and pleasures, and position and power, till death, and in vying with one another and bragging and boasting about their acquisitions. This one pursuit has so occupied them that they are left with no time or opportunity for pursuing the higher goals in life. After warning the people of its evil end they have been told as if to say: “These blessings which you are amassing and enjoying thoughtlessly, are not mere blessings but are also a means of your trial. For each one of these blessings and comforts you will surely be called to account in the Hereafter.”

Quran 2:272

You are not responsible for people’s guidance ˹O Prophet˺—it is Allah Who guides whoever He wills. Whatever you ˹believers˺ spend in charity, it is for your own good—as long as you do so seeking the pleasure of Allah. Whatever you donate will be paid back to you in full, and you will not be wronged. Quran 2:272
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)

لَّيْسَ عَلَيْكَ هُدَىٰهُمْ وَلَكِنَّ ٱللَّهَ يَهْدِى مَن يَشَآءُ ۗ وَمَا تُنفِقُوا۟ مِنْ خَيْرٍۢ فَلِأَنفُسِكُمْ ۚ وَمَا تُنفِقُونَ إِلَّا ٱبْتِغَآءَ وَجْهِ ٱللَّهِ ۚ وَمَا تُنفِقُوا۟ مِنْ خَيْرٍۢ يُوَفَّ إِلَيْكُمْ وَأَنتُمْ لَا تُظْلَمُونَ
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.
(اے محمدﷺ) تم ان لوگوں کی ہدایت کے ذمہ دار نہیں ہو بلکہ خدا ہی جس کو چاہتا ہے ہدایت بخشتا ہے۔ اور (مومنو) تم جو مال خرچ کرو گے تو اس کا فائدہ تمہیں کو ہے اور تم جو خرچ کرو گے خدا کی خوشنودی کے لئے کرو گے۔ اور جو مال تم خرچ کرو گے وہ تمہیں پورا پورا دے دیا جائے گا اور تمہارا کچھ نقصان نہیں کیا جائے گا
