Quran 42:19~20

Allah is Ever Kind to His servants. He provides ˹abundantly˺ to whoever He wills. And He is the All-Powerful, Almighty. Whoever desires the harvest of the Hereafter, We will increase their harvest. And whoever desires ˹only˺ the harvest of this world, We will give them some of it, but they will have no share in the Hereafter. Quran 42:19~20 Surah ash-Shura (Consultation, The Counsel)
The Surah takes its name from the Ayat,
وَالَّذِينَ اسْتَجَابُوا لِرَبِّهِمْ وَأَقَامُوا الصَّلَاةَ وَأَمْرُهُمْ شُورَىٰ بَيْنَهُمْ وَمِمَّا رَزَقْنَاهُمْ يُنفِقُونَ
“And those who have responded to their lord and established prayer and whose affair is [determined by] consultation among themselves, and from what We have provided them, they spend.” (42:38).

ٱللَّهُ لَطِیفُۢ بِعِبَادِهِۦ یَرۡزُقُ مَن یَشَاۤءُۖ وَهُوَ ٱلۡقَوِیُّ ٱلۡعَزِیزُ مَن كَانَ یُرِیدُ حَرۡثَ ٱلۡءَاخِرَةِ نَزِدۡ لَهُۥ فِی حَرۡثِهِۦۖ وَمَن كَانَ یُرِیدُ حَرۡثَ ٱلدُّنۡیَا نُؤۡتِهِۦ مِنۡهَا وَمَا لَهُۥ فِی ٱلۡءَاخِرَةِ مِن نَّصِیبٍ
The Surah emphasizes that the message of the Qur’an is from Allah Who revealed similar messages to other Prophets and Messengers. The religion of Allah has been the same throughout history. If Allah wanted He would have made all people into one Ummah, but He has given freedom to people to make their own choice by their free will. Allah will judge all people on the Day of Judgment. In the Surah it is also mentioned that the followers of this message are those who avoid major sins and who manage their affairs with mutual consultation.
الله اپنے بندوں پر بڑا مہربان ہے جسے (جس قدر) چاہے روزی دیتا ہے اوروہ بڑا طاقتور زبردست ہے جو کوئی آخرت کی کھیتی کا طالب ہو ہم اس کے لیے اس کھیتی میں برکت دیں گے اور جو دنیا کی کھیتی کا طالب ہو اسے (بقدر مناسب) دنیا میں دیں گے اور آخرت میں اس کا کچھ حصہ نہیں ہوگا
Sections:
Allah revealed His message to His Prophets. The purpose of revelation is to warn people about the Day of Judgment. Had Allah willed, He would have forced all people into one Ummah, but the wrong-does will see the consequences of their deeds.
The judgment is in the hand of Allah. He gave the same religion to all His Prophets. Muslims must invite people to Allah.
Allah deals justly with all people. Allah accepts the repentance. Allah’s mercy is manifest in the universe.
Believers should avoid sins, be patient, work with each other in consultation and practice forgiveness.
The Prophet guides to the right path, the path of Allah.

Quran 42:23

That ˹reward˺ is the good news which Allah gives to His servants who believe and do good. Say, ˹O Prophet,˺ “I do not ask you for a reward for this ˹message˺—only honour for ˹our˺ kinship.” Whoever earns a good deed, We will increase it in goodness for them. Surely Allah is All-Forgiving, Most Appreciative. Quran 42:23 Surah ash-Shura (Consultation, The Counsel)
The Surah takes its name from the Ayat,
وَالَّذِينَ اسْتَجَابُوا لِرَبِّهِمْ وَأَقَامُوا الصَّلَاةَ وَأَمْرُهُمْ شُورَىٰ بَيْنَهُمْ وَمِمَّا رَزَقْنَاهُمْ يُنفِقُونَ

یہ ہے وہ چیز جس کی خوش خبری اللہ اپنے اُن بندوں کو دیتا ہے جنہوں نے مان لیا اور نیک عمل کیے اے نبیؐ، اِن لوگوں سے کہہ دو کہ میں اِس کام پر تم سے کسی اجر کا طالب نہیں ہوں، البتہ قرابت کی محبت ضرور چاہتا ہوں جو کوئی بھلائی کمائے گا ہم اس کے لیے اس بھلائی میں خوبی کا اضافہ کر دیں گے بے شک اللہ بڑا در گزر کرنے والا اور قدر دان ہے

Quran 3:113~115

Yet they are not all alike: there are some among the People of the Book who are upright, who recite Allah’s revelations throughout the night, prostrating ˹in prayer˺. They believe in Allah and the Last Day, encourage good and forbid evil, and race with one another in doing good. They are ˹truly˺ among the righteous. They will never be denied the reward for any good they have done. And Allah has ˹perfect˺ knowledge of those mindful ˹of Him˺. Quran 3:113~115
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).

لَیۡسُوا۟ سَوَاۤءࣰۗ مِّنۡ أَهۡلِ ٱلۡكِتَـٰبِ أُمَّةࣱ قَاۤىِٕمَةࣱ یَتۡلُونَ ءَایَـٰتِ ٱللَّهِ ءَانَاۤءَ ٱلَّیۡلِ وَهُمۡ یَسۡجُدُونَ یُؤۡمِنُونَ بِٱللَّهِ وَٱلۡیَوۡمِ ٱلۡءَاخِرِ وَیَأۡمُرُونَ بِٱلۡمَعۡرُوفِ وَیَنۡهَوۡنَ عَنِ ٱلۡمُنكَرِ وَیُسَـٰرِعُونَ فِی ٱلۡخَیۡرَ ٰتِۖ وَأُو۟لَـٰۤىِٕكَ مِنَ ٱلصَّـٰلِحِینَ وَمَا یَفۡعَلُوا۟ مِنۡ خَیۡرࣲ فَلَن یُكۡفَرُوهُۗ وَٱللَّهُ عَلِیمُۢ بِٱلۡمُتَّقِینَ
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)]
یہ بھی سب ایک جیسے نہیں ہیں ان اہلِ کتاب میں کچھ لوگ (حکمِ خدا پر) قائم بھی ہیں جو رات کے وقت خدا کی آیتیں پڑھتے اور (اس کے آگے) سجدہ کرتے ہیں (اور) خدا پر اور روز آخرت پر ایمان رکھتے اور اچھے کام کرنےکو کہتے اور بری باتوں سے منع کرتے اور نیکیوں پر لپکتے ہیں اور یہی لوگ نیکوکار ہیں اور یہ جس طرح کی نیکی کریں گے اس کی ناقدری نہیں کی جائے گی اور خدا پرہیزگاروں کو خوب جانتا ہے
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 47:36~38

This worldly life is no more than play and amusement. But if you are faithful and mindful ˹of Allah˺, He will grant you your ˹full˺ reward, and will not ask you ˹to donate all˺ your wealth. If He were to do so and pressure you, you would withhold and He would bring out your resentment. Here you are, being invited to donate ˹a little˺ in the cause of Allah. Still some of you withhold. And whoever does so, it is only to their own loss. For Allah is the Self-Sufficient, whereas you stand in need ˹of Him˺. If you ˹still˺ turn away, He will replace you with another people. And they will not be like you. Quran 47:36~38
This Surah is named after our beloved Messenger, Muhammad. His name is mentioned in the following Ayat وَالَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ وَآمَنُوا بِمَا نُزِّلَ عَلَىٰ مُحَمَّدٍ وَهُوَ الْحَقُّ مِن رَّبِّهِمْ ۙ كَفَّرَ عَنْهُمْ سَيِّئَاتِهِمْ وَأَصْلَحَ بَالَهُمْ “And those who believe and do righteous deeds and believe in what has been sent down upon Muhammad – and it is the truth from their Lord – He will remove from them their misdeeds and amend their condition.” (47:2)
The Surah is also known as ‘Surah al-Qital’ [Fighting].
There are 38 Ayat in this Surah.

The title is derived from the direct mentioning of the Islamic prophet Muhammad in 47:2. It also has the name of Al-Qitāl (Arabic: القتال), which translates to fighting due to the context of the sura. This sura pertains to a specific conflict that arose from people prohibiting the acceptance and spread of Islam. It refers to the Battle of Badr, where an army was being gathered to attack Medina. The Battle of Badr took place during Ramadan, in year 2 of the Islamic calendar.
دنیا کی زندگی تو محض کھیل اور تماشا ہے۔ اور اگر تم ایمان لاؤ گے اور پرہیزگاری کرو گے تو وہ تم کو تمہارا اجر دے گا۔ اور تم سے تمہارا مال طلب نہیں کرے گا اگر وہ تم سے مال طلب کرے اور تمہیں تنگ کرے تو تم بخل کرنے لگو اور وہ (بخل) تمہاری بدنیتی ظاہر کرکے رہے دیکھو تم وہ لوگ ہو کہ خدا کی راہ میں خرچ کرنے کے لئے بلائے جاتے ہو۔ تو تم میں ایسے شخص بھی ہیں جو بخل کرنے لگتے ہیں۔ اور جو بخل کرتا ہے اپنے آپ سے بخل کرتا ہے۔ اور خدا بےنیاز ہے اور تم محتاج۔ اور اگر تم منہ پھیرو گے تو وہ تمہاری جگہ اور لوگوں کو لے آئے گا اور وہ تمہاری طرح کے نہیں ہوں گے

Quran 57:10~12

And why should you not spend in the cause of Allah, while Allah is the ˹sole˺ inheritor of the heavens and the earth? Those of you who donated and fought before the victory ˹over Mecca˺ are unparalleled. They are far greater in rank than those who donated and fought afterwards. Yet Allah has promised each a fine reward. And Allah is All-Aware of what you do. Who is it that will lend to Allah a good loan which Allah will multiply ˹many times over˺ for them, and they will have an honourable reward? On that Day you will see believing men and women with their light shining ahead of them and on their right. ˹They will be told,˺ “Today you have good news of Gardens, under which rivers flow, ˹for you˺ to stay in forever. This is ˹truly˺ the ultimate triumph.” Quran 57:10~12
This Surah takes its name from the Ayat, وَأَنزَلْنَا الْحَدِيدَ فِيهِ بَأْسٌ شَدِيدٌ “…And We sent down iron, wherein is great military might …” (57:25).
There are 29 Ayat in this Surah.

The theme of this Surah is to exhort the Muslims to spend in the cause of God. At the most critical juncture of the history of Islam when it was engaged in a life and death struggle against Arab paganism, this Surah was revealed to persuade the Muslim’s to make monetary sacrifices in particular, and to make them realise that Islam did not merely consist in verbal affirmation and some outward practices but its essence and spirit is sincerity towards God and His Religion. The faith of the one who was devoid of this spirit and who regarded his own self and wealth as dearer to himself than God and His Religion, was hollow and therefore of little worth in the sight of God. For this object, first the attributes of God Almighty have been mentioned so that the listeners may fully realize as to Who is addressing them.
اور تمہیں کیا ہوگیا جو الله کی راہ میں خرچ نہیں کرتے حالانکہ آسمانوں اور زمین کا ورثہ تو الله ہی کے لیے ہے تم میں سے اور کوئی اس کے برابر ہو نہیں سکتا جس نے فتح مکہ سے پہلے خرچ کیا اور جہاد کیا یہ ہیں کہ الله کے نزدیک جن کا بڑا درجہ ہے ان لوگو ں پر ہے جنہوں نے بعد میں خرچ کیا اور جہاد کیا اور الله نے ہر ایک سے نیک جزا کا وعدہ کیا ہے اور الله تمہارے کاموں سے خبردار ہے ایسا کون ہے جو الله کو اچھا قرض دے پھر وہ اس کو ا سکے لیے دگنا کر دے اوراس کے لیے عمدہ بدلہ ہے جس دن آپ ایماندار مردوں اور عورتوں کو دیکھیں گے کہ ان کا نور ان کے سامنے اور ان کے داہنے دوڑ رہا ہوگا تمہیں آج ایسے باغوں کی خوشخبری ہے کہ ان کے نیچے نہریں چلتی ہیں وہ ان میں ہمیشہ رہیں گے یہی وہ بڑی کامیابی ہے

Light and Life are for the Believers. The disbelievers walk in darkness. Warning to those who refuse to acknowledge Allah. Sincere in faith are those who are willing to sacrifice and help the poor and needy..
The life of this world is temporary. Compete with each other in doing good things to receive the eternal reward from Allah. Prophets were sent to establish justice with authority.
References to Prophets Noah, Ibrahim, and Jesus -peace be upon them all. All Prophets preached same message, but some of their followers went into extremes. The Christians thus invented monasticism for themselves. It was not commanded by God. The Believers are asked to have faith and walk in the light of Allah. The final success belongs to the Believers.
