Understanding the Quran (Summarized commentary of Surah Fajr [89])
Bismillahi-Rahman-Roheem.
All Praises are for Allah; we adore Him and seek His help and forgiveness. We have Faith and Trust in Him. We seek Allah’s refuge against evil tendencies of our Soul and our bad deeds.
He whom Allah guides no one can lead him astray. And he whom Allah lets go astray there is none to guide him. I bear witness that there is no deity except Allah, the One and without any Partner; and I also bear witness that Muhammad (SAW) is His servant and Messenger. Allah had sent him with Truth, to give good tidings and to warn before the Doomsday.
Whosoever obeys Allah and His Messenger will be successful and well guided. And whosoever disobeys either of them has gone astray. Such a person harms none save himself; he does no harm to Allah. The best Word is the Book of Allah. And the best Guidance is that given by Muhammad (SAW). Good things are the firm (original) ones, and Bad things are those introduced later on. And everything introduced later (in religion) is innovation, and every innovation is in Hell Fire.
After that, I seek Allah’s refuge against Shaitan the outcast and I start in the name of Allah, the entirely Merciful, the especially Merciful.
This Surah as we are told by the Mufasir is that it is one of the earliest of the Surahs to be revealed probably within the first ten chronological orders. Its mystic meaning is suggested by contrasts in nature and in man's long history. Thus does it enforce the lesson of Faith in the Hereafter to "those who understand". Man's history and legendry lore show that greatness does not last and the proudest are brought low. For enforcing moral and spiritual truths, the strictest history is no better than legend. Indeed all artistic history is legend, for it is written from a special point of view.
Man is easily cowed by the contrasts in his own fortunes, and yet he does not learn from them the lesson of forbearance and kindness to others, and the final elevation of goodness in the Hereafter. When all the things on which his mind and heart are set on this earth shall be crushed to nothingness, he will see the real glory and power, love and beauty, of Allah, for these are the light of the Garden of Paradise.
Man is apt to forget the contrasts in nature and life, and all that they mean in his spiritual growth. Perchance his mind is so absorbed in what he sees; that he doubts the vast realities he does not see. The Present makes him blind to the Past and to the Future. Fooled by glory, he fears not a fall; and baulked in disaster, he gives up hope and sometimes faith. Let him study Nature, and History, and restore his Faith, realizing the sure event, the Hereafter, Let him find his fullest fulfillment in the service and the good pleasure of Allah.
“By the Break of Day” 89:1
We were told by our teacher that four striking contrasts are mentioned, to show Allah's Power and Justice, and appeal to "those who understand".
The first is the glory and mystery of the Break of Day. It just succeeds the deepest dark of the Night, when the first rays of light break through. Few people except those actually in personal touch with nature can feel its compelling power.
In respect both of beauty and terror, of hope and inspiration, of suddenness and continuing increase of light and joy, this "holy time" of night may well stand as the type of spiritual awakening from darkness to Faith, from Death to Resurrection.
“By the Nights twice five” 89:2
By the Ten Nights are usually understood the first ten nights of Dhu al Hijjah, the sacred season of Pilgrimage. From the most ancient times Makkah was the centre of Arab pilgrimage. The story of Abraham is intimately connected with it: Q2:125-127, Q 2:197.
In times of Paganism various superstitions were introduced, which Islam swept away. Islam also purified the rites and ceremonies, giving them new meaning. The ten days specially devoted to the Hajj introduce a striking contrast in the life of Makkah and of the pilgrims.
Makkah, from being a quiet secluded city, is then thronged with thousands of pilgrims from all parts of the world. They discard their ordinary dress-representing every kind of costume-to the simple and ordinary Ihram; they refrain from every kind of fighting and quarrel; they abstain from every kind of luxury and self-indulgence; they hold all life sacred, however humble, except in the way of carefully-regulated sacrifice; and they spend their nights in prayer and meditation.
In Sahih Al-Bukhari from Ibn Abbas relates that the Prophet (SAW) said: “There are no days in which righteous deeds are more beloved to Allah than these days. meaning the first ten days of Dhul-Hijjah. They (the companions) said, "Not even fighting Jihad in the way of Allah'' He replied, Not even Jihad in the way of Allah; except for a man who goes out (for Jihad) with his self and his wealth, and he does not return with any of that.
“By the Even and Odd (contrasted)” 89:3
The contrast between even and odd forms the subject of learned argument among those who deal with the properties of numbers. In any case, even and odd follow each other in regular succession: each is independent, and yet neither is self-sufficient. In ultimate analysis every even number is a pair of odd ones. And all things go in pairs: Q36:36.
In the animal world pairs are but two individuals, and yet each is a complement of the other. Both abstract and concrete things are often understood in contrast with their opposites. Why should we not, in spiritual matters, understand this life better with reference to the Hereafter, and why should we disbelieve in the Hereafter simply because we cannot conceive of anything different from our present life?
“And by the Night when it passeth away” 89:4 That is, the last part of the night, just before full day-light.
Here are the stages to understand:
All these Signs draw our attention, like solemn adjurations in speech, to the profoundest mystery of our inner life, viz., how from utter depths of darkness, ignorance or even degradation-Allah's wonderful light or revelation can lead us by contrast into the most beautiful sunshine of a glorious spiritual Day.
But the contrast suggest also the opposite process as a corollary-how resistance to Allah's fight would destroy us utterly, converting our greatness or glory to perdition, as happened with the peoples of Arab antiquity, the 'Ad and the Thamud, and the type of the powerful but arrogant and godless monarch, the Pharaoh of Egypt. Like a man with a bounded horizon, the average man does not understand these long-range mysteries of life, and we have need to pray that we may be of "those who understand".
As for the people 'Ad explained in Q7:65. They seem to have possessed an ancient civilization, which succumbed when they persistently broke Allah's law. After mentioning these people, and their worship and obedience, Allah says:
“Seest thou not how thy Lord dealt with the 'Ad (people)” 89:6
These were people who were rebellious, disobedient, and arrogant, outside of His obedience, deniers of His Messengers and rejectors of His Scriptures. Thus, Allah mentions how He destroyed them, annihilated them and made them legends to be spoken of and an exemplary lesson of warning.
Allah then says: “Of the (city of) Iram, with lofty pillars” 89:7 This verse is an additional explanation that adds clarification for who they actually were.
Iram would seem to have been an ancient 'Ad capital, in southern Arabia. It boasted of lofty architecture ("lofty pillars"). Some Mufasir understand Iram to be the name of an eponymous hero of the 'Ad, in which case the following fine, "with lofty pillars", should be construed "of lofty stature". The 'Ad were a tall race. Qatadah bin Di`amah and As-Suddi both said, "Verily, Iram refers to the House of the kingdom of `Ad.''
This tract of southern Arabia was once very prosperous (Arabia Felix) and contains ruins and inscriptions. It has always been an object of great interest to the Arabia. In the time of Mu'awiyah some precious stones were found among the ruins in this locality.Quite recently, a bronze lion's head and a bronze piece of gutter with a Sabaean inscription, found in Najran, have been described in the British Museum.
For the people Thamud explained in Q7:73; their civilization shows traces of Egyptian, Syrian, and (later) Greek and Roman influences. They built fine temples, tombs, and buildings cut out of the solid rock. The cult of the goddess Lat flourished among them. As For Pharaoh's arrogance and his fall it is explained in Q20:43, 78-79. The three examples given, the 'Ad, the Thamud, and Pharaoh, show that neither nations nor individuals, however mighty, prosperous, or firmly established they may be, can live if they transgress the Law of Allah. The Law of Allah, which is also the law of the higher nature which He has bestowed on us, made them in the first place great and glorious: when they fell from it and "heaped mischief on mischief", they were swept away.
Even though Allah's punishment is delayed, it is not to be supposed that He does not see all things. Allah's providence is ever vigilant; His punishment of evil doers is a form of justice to the weak and the righteous whom they oppress. It is part of the signification of His title as Rabb (Cherisher).
Contrast with Allah's justice and watchful care, man's selfishness and pettiness. Allah tries us both by prosperity and adversity; Prosperity: so that we show humility and kindness, Adversity: in other to show patience and faith.
On the contrary, we get puffed up in prosperity and depressed in adversity, putting false values on this world's goods. Allah Says:
“Now, as for man, when his Lord tried him giving him honor and gifts, then he said, (puffed up), "My Lord hath honored me." But when He tried him, restricting his subsistence for him, then he said (in despair), "My Lord hath humiliated me!" Indeed, truly! but ye honor not the orphans! Nor do ye encourage one another to feed the poor! And ye devour inheritance, all with greed. And ye love wealth with inordinate love! Verily! when the earth is pounded to powder, And thy Lord cometh and His angels, rank upon rank in rows, And Hell will be brought near that Day. (face to face), on that Day will man remember, but how will that remembrance avail him. He will say: "Alas! "Ah! would that I had sent forth (Good Deeds) for (this) my (Future) Life." So on that Day none will punish as He (Allah) will punish. And none will bind as He will bind. (To the righteous soul will be said:) "O (thou) soul, in (complete) rest and satisfaction! "Come back thou to thy Lord, well pleased (thyself), and well-pleasing unto Him! "Enter thou, then, among my Devotees! "Yea, enter thou my Heaven"! 89:15-30
Subsistence, in both the literal and the figurative sense. Allah provides for all, but people complain if the provision is measured and restricted to their needs, circumstances, and antecedents, and does not come up to their desires or expectations, or is different from that given to people in quite different circumstances. Even at our own valuation, if we are favoured with superfluities, do we think of the fatherless children, or the struggling poor? On the contrary, too many men are but ready to embezzle the helpless orphan's inheritance, and to waste their own substance in worthless rebellion instead of supplying the people's real needs.
Kindness and generosity set up standards which even worldly men feel bound to follow out of social considerations even if they are not moved by higher motives. But the wicked find plausible excuses for their own hard-heartedness and by their evil example choke up the springs of charity and kindness in others.
Inheritance is abused in two ways:
1. Guardians and trustees for the inheritance of minors or women or persons unable to look after their own interests should fulfil their trusts with even more care than they devote to their own interests. Instead of that they selfishly "devour" the property.
2. Persons who inherit property in their own rights should remember that in that case, too, it is a sacred trust. They must use it for the purposes, objects, and duties which they also inherit. It gives them no license to live in idleness or waste their days in riotous show.
Our attention is called to the Day of Reckoning. Whether we failed to respect the rights of the helpless here or actually suppressed those rights in our mad love for the good thing of this life, we shall have to answer in the realm of Reality. This solid earth, which we imagine to be so real, will crumble to powder like dust before the real Presence, manifested in glory.
The Retribution will at last come, and we shall realise it in our inmost being, all the illusions of this fleeting world having been swept away. Then we shall remember, and wish, too late, that we had repented. Why not repent now? Why not bring forth the fruits of repentance now, as a preparation for the Hereafter?
Allah’s Punishment" involves pain and agony, such as cannot be imagined anywhere else, or from any other source, for it touches our inmost soul and cannot be compared with anything our bodies may suffer or others may inflict.
"Bonds" imply confinement, want of freedom, the closing of a door which was once open but which we deliberately passed by. We see that others accepted in faith and entered that door. This shutting out of what might have been in worse than any other bonds or confinement we can imagine, and may be worse than actual punishment.
The righteous will enter into their inheritance and receive their welcome with a title that suggests freedom from all pain, sorrow, doubt, struggle, disappointment, passion, and even further desire; at rest, in peace; in a state of complete satisfaction.
In Islamic theology, this stage of the soul is the final stage of bliss. The unregenerate human soul, that seeks its satisfaction in the lower earthly desires, is the Ammara (Q12:53). The self-reproaching soul that feels conscious of sin and resists it is the Lawwama (Q75:2).
Finally:
Note that Evil finds itself isolated, and cries out in lonely agony (89:24), while Good receives a warm welcome from the Lord of Goodness Himself,-also that it is the soul which enters paradise, and not the gross body which perishes.
The climax of the whole is: "Enter My Paradise!" Men may have imagined all kinds of heaven before, and many types are used in the sacred Word itself. But nothing can express the reality itself better than "My Paradise"-Allah's own Paradise! May we reach it through Allah's grace! Ameen…….
“Indeed, Allah orders justice and good conduct and giving to relatives and forbids immorality and bad conduct and oppression. He admonishes you that perhaps you will be reminded". (6:90). May Allah bless us to serve him in all aspects of our lives.
Oh Allah forgives all our dead love ones, our parents living and dead. Oh Allah preserve our teachers those that dead and those that are living make them a great guide for us to Aljannah and not a distractor. Oh Allah me and the Muslim Ummah. Amin
Alahumma infa`ni bima `allamtani wa `allamni ma yanfa`uni! (OH ALLAH! Make useful for me what You taught me and teach me knowledge that will be useful to me!)

“And by the Night when it passeth away” 89:4 That is, the last part of the night, just before full day-light.
Here are the stages to understand:
- First, the turn of the night, when just the first rays of daylight break through.
- Secondly, the social and institutional rites of religion, like those during the ten nights of Pilgrimage.
- Thirdly, when the usual contrast between the Here and Hereafter vanishes, and we can see heaven even here.
- Lastly, when this world vanishes, the full light of Day arrives, and we see Reality face to face.
All these Signs draw our attention, like solemn adjurations in speech, to the profoundest mystery of our inner life, viz., how from utter depths of darkness, ignorance or even degradation-Allah's wonderful light or revelation can lead us by contrast into the most beautiful sunshine of a glorious spiritual Day.
