Tafsir Ibn Kathir 

Which was revealed in Makkah

بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَـنِ الرَّحِيمِ

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

The Qur'an is Guidance and Glad Tidings for the Believers, a Warning to the Disbelievers, and it is from Allah

In (the comments on) Surat Al-Baqarah, we discussed the letters which appear at the beginning of some Surahs.

تِلْكَ ءَايَـتُ الْقُرْءَانِ وَكِتَـبٍ مُّبِينٍ

(These are the Ayat of the Qur'an, and (it is) a Book (that is) clear.) It is plain and evident.

هُدًى وَبُشْرَى لِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ

(A guide and glad tidings for the believers.) meaning, guidance and good news may be attained from the Qur'an for those who believe in it, follow it and put it into practice. They establish obligatory prayers, pay Zakah and believe with certain faith in the Hereafter, the resurrection after death, reward and punishment for all deeds, good and bad, and Paradise and Hell. This is like the Ayat:

قُلْ هُوَ لِلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ هُدًى وَشِفَآءٌ وَالَّذِينَ لاَ يُؤْمِنُونَ فِى ءَاذَانِهِمْ وَقْرٌ

(Say: "It is for those who believe, a guide and a healing. And as for those who disbelieve, there is heaviness (deafness) in their ears...") (41:44).

لِتُبَشِّرَ بِهِ الْمُتَّقِينَ وَتُنْذِرَ بِهِ قَوْماً لُّدّاً

(that you may give glad tidings to those who have Taqwa, and warn with it the Ludd (most quarrelsome) people) (19: 97). Allah says here:

إِنَّ الَّذِينَ لاَ يُؤْمِنُونَ بِالاٌّخِرَةِ

(Verily, those who believe not in the Hereafter,) meaning, those who deny it and think that it will never happen,

زَيَّنَّا لَهُمْ أَعْمَـلَهُمْ فَهُمْ يَعْمَهُونَ

(We have made their deeds fair seeming to them, so that they wander about blindly.) means, `We have made what they are doing seem good to them, and We have left them to continue in their misguidance, so they are lost and confused.' This is their recompense for their disbelief in the Hereafter, as Allah says:

وَنُقَلِّبُ أَفْئِدَتَهُمْ وَأَبْصَـرَهُمْ كَمَا لَمْ يُؤْمِنُواْ بِهِ أَوَّلَ مَرَّةٍ

(And We shall turn their hearts and their eyes away, as they refused to believe therein for the first time) (6:110).

أُوْلَـئِكَ الَّذِينَ لَهُمْ سُوءُ الْعَذَابِ

(They are those for whom there will be an evil torment.) in this world and the Hereafter.

وَهُمْ فِى الاٌّخِرَةِ هُمُ الاٌّخْسَرُونَ

(And in the Hereafter they will be the greatest losers.) means, no one but they, among all the people who will be gathered, will lose their souls and their wealth.

وَإِنَّكَ لَتُلَقَّى الْقُرْءَانَ مِن لَّدُنْ حَكِيمٍ عَلِيمٍ

(And verily, you are being taught the Qur'an from One, All-Wise, All-Knowing.)

وَأَنَّكَ

(And verily, you) O Muhammad. Qatadah said:

لَتُلَقَّى

(are being taught) "Are receiving."

الْقُرْءَانَ مِن لَّدُنْ حَكِيمٍ عَلِيمٍ

(the Qur'an from One, All-Wise, All-Knowing.) from One Who is Wise in His commands and prohibitions, and Who knows all things, major and minor. Whatever He says is absolute Truth, and His rulings are entirely fair and just, as Allah says:

وَتَمَّتْ كَلِمَةُ رَبِّكَ صِدْقاً وَعَدْلاً

(And the Word of your Lord has been fulfilled in truth and in justice) (6:115).

তাফসীর ইবনে কাছীর 

১-৬ নং আয়াতের তাফসীর: সূরাসমূহের শুরুতে যে হুরূফে মুকাত্তাআত বা বিছিন্ন অক্ষরগুলো এসে থাকে সেগুলোর পূর্ণ আলোচনা সূরায়ে বাকারার শুরুতে করা হয়েছে। সুতরাং এখানে ওগুলোর পুনরাবৃত্তি নিষ্প্রয়োজন। এগুলো হলো উজ্জ্বল ও সুস্পষ্ট কুরআনের আয়াত। এগুলো হলো মুমিনদের জন্যে পথ-নির্দেশ ও সুসংবাদ। কেননা তারাই এগুলোকে বিশ্বাস করতঃ এগুলোর অনুসরণ করে থাকে। তারা কুরআনকে সত্য বলে স্বীকার করে এবং ওর উপর আমল করে থাকে।এরা তারাই যারা সঠিকভাবে ফরয নামায আদায় করে এবং অনুরূপভাবে ফরয যাকাত প্রদানের ব্যাপারেও কোন ত্রুটি করে না। আর তারা পরকালের প্রতি পূর্ণ বিশ্বাস রাখে। মৃত্যুর পরে পুনরুত্থান এবং এরপরে পুরস্কার ও শাস্তিকেও তারা স্বীকার করে থাকে। জান্নাত ও জাহান্নামকে তারা সত্য বলে বিশ্বাস করে। 

যেমন অন্য আয়াতে রয়েছেঃ (আরবি)অর্থাৎ “তুমি বল- এই কুরআনি মুমিনদের জন্যে হিদায়াত ও শিফা (রোগমুক্তি), আর যারা মুমিন নয় তাদের কর্ণসমূহে বধিরতা রয়েছে।” (৪১:৪৪) আর এক জায়গায় রয়েছে (আরবি) অর্থাৎ “যেন তুমি এর দ্বারা আল্লাহ-ভীরুদেরকে সুসংবাদ দাও এবং অবাধ্য ও দুষ্ট লোকদেরকে ভয় প্রদর্শন কর।” (১৯:৯৭)এখানেও মহান আল্লাহ বলেনঃ যারা আখিরাতে বিশ্বাস করে না তাদের দৃষ্টিতে তাদের কর্মকে আমি শোভনীয় করেছি। তাদের কাছে তাদের মন্দ কাজও ভাল মনে হয়। তাই তারা ঔদ্ধত্য ও বিভ্রান্তিতে ঘুরে বেড়ায়। তাদেরই জন্যে রয়েছে কঠিন শাস্তি এবং আখিরাতে তারাই হবে সর্বাধিক ক্ষতিগ্রস্ত।মহামহিমান্বিত আল্লাহ স্বীয় নবী (সঃ)-কে সম্বোধন করে বলেনঃ হে নবী (সঃ)! নিশ্চয়ই তোমাকে আল-কুরআন দেয়া হয়েছে প্রজ্ঞাময় সর্বজ্ঞের নিকট হতে। তাঁর আদেশ ও নিষেধের মধ্যে কি নিপুণতা রয়েছে তা তিনিই ভাল জানেন। ছোট বড় সমস্ত কাজ সম্পর্কে তিনি পূর্ণ অবহিত। সুতরাং কুরআন কারীমের সবকিছুই নিঃসন্দেহে সত্য। এর মধ্যে যেসব আদেশ ও নিষেধ রয়েছে সবই ন্যায় ও ইনসাফপূর্ণ। যেমন মহান আল্লাহ বলেনঃ (আরবি) অর্থাৎ “তোমার প্রতিপালকের কথা সত্য ও ন্যায় রূপে পূর্ণ হয়ে গেছে।” (৬: ১১৬)

YOUTH

MY ISLAMIC LIFESTYLE  

Sunan-ul-Fitra: Islamic Personal Grooming

One of the most important parts of being a Muslim is cleanli­ness. Keeping ourselves pure is considered one half of our faith, according to the Prophet (S) . A good Muslim is clean, neat, and presentable. A good Muslim tries to look and smell good.

There are several ways to keep ourselves clean and pure. The Prophet (S), called these ways of cleaning ourselves Sunan-ul-Fitra. This refers to our personal hygiene. Hygiene means cleanli­ness and freedom from impurity.

Good hygiene is important because not only does it keep us looking, smelling, and feeling good, but it is pleasing to Allah SWT, .1 Allah is happy when we take good care of the bodies He has given us. Another effect of good hygiene is that it protects us from germs that might otherwise make us sick. 

Abu Malik Al-Ashaari narrated that the Prophet (S) said: "At-Tahouru Shatrul-lman." Reported by Muslim . This means, "Cleanliness is half of the faith. 

The Catagories of Sunan-ul-Fitra

The Mouth

It is important for Muslims to keep their mouths clean. This means we should remember to brush our teeth at least two times a day. The best times for teeth brushing are right before we go to sleep and right after we wake up.

This keeps our gums, tongue, and teeth free from harmful bac­teria. It also helps us to have a nice and fresh smelling breath.

Have you ever forgotten to brush your teeth? What happens When the people around you smell your breath if you haven't brushed your teeth? How do you feel when you smell other's bad breath?

Brushing your teeth and clean­ing your mouth is also good for people around you, because they are spared from bad breath.

We use a toothbrush to dean our mouths. The Prophet used a siwaak. A siwaak is a twig from a special tree. If you ever use a siwaak, you'll notice that it has a nice, fresh flavor. It is a very good thing to clean your teeth with a siwaak like Rasoolullah used to do.

The Body

These days, most people are fortunate enough to be able to shower every day. During the Prophet's time, there wasn't enough water for everyone to bathe every day. Therefore, 

Rasoolullah (S) recommended his followers to take a special shower on Fridays, before Jum'uah prayers. This special bath is called ghusl. 

Alhamdulillah today we have running water, so it is easy to take a shower every day. Taking a shower every day will keep us clean. Even if we only shower every few days, it is Sunnah to take a shower on Fridays. 

Taking a shower or bath is impor­tant because it keeps our bodies clean, healthy and smelling good.

Abu Umamah narrated that Rasoolullah said: "Cleaning your mouth with siwaak cleans the mouth and pleases the Lord."

Reported in Nasa'i, Ibn Majah and Ahmad

What happens when you play for a long time on a very hot day?

When we work or play hard, our bodies sweat, and body odor is pro­duced. Body odor is a bad smell that comes from places like our armpits and others. It is very important to keep our bodies smelling good, and taking a daily shower is a great start.

When we do shower, it is impor­tant that we scrub ourselves every­where with soap, especially extra smelly areas. Different people smell bad in different places. It is important to know the areas you have to pay special attention to cleaning.

Prophet Muhammad (S) always smelled wonderful. His companions said that he smelled like musk, or perfume. To follow his example, we should also smell nice and clean. One way we can do this is to use nice smelling shampoo or soap.

Wudoo'

Everyday, we come in contact with so many germs that even a shower is not enough to protect us from them. Our hands, arms, faces, and feet are always getting dirty, and they always need clean­ing.

Wudoo' is not only something that purifies our souls, but it also purifies our bodies. If we make sure that we are always in a state of wudoo', then we will always be in a state of purity. We will have more opportunities to wash dirt and bacteria off of different parts of our bodies throughout the day.

Also, being in the state of wudoo', or taharah, keeps us ready to worship Allah all of the time. When we are in a state of taharah, and make it for the sake of Allah, our deeds will make Him very happy with us.

Fingernails and Toenails

Our hands and feet do a lot of work during the day, and because of this, they also get dirty. But the parts of our hands and feet that catch the most dirt are our fingernails and toenails.

To take care of our fingernails, we should dip them around once a week. Rasoolullah never let his fingernails grow out long. We should not let ours grow too long either.

Because you eat with your hands, lot of bacteria can collect under the nails, it is really impor­tant to keep your nails well groomed. Imagine the germs that you would put into your mouth if you had long nails that had a lot of bacteria!

What else might happen If we keep long nails? 

Remember, following Sunan-ul-Fitra will keep our bodies nice and healthy, and it will please Allah. We should remember that when we clean ourselves, we are doing it for the sake of Allah. This will give us many good deeds, inshaAllah. This way, our bodies will be clean, and it will help us keep our souls clean, too!
