Lecture 7 Surah AL- A’araf • Some commentators have the opinion that this surah came just after surah Al-An’am. • Mid makki surah. • Main theme is the fight between truth and falsehood. • Many reminders of Allah. • Longest makkan surah • 206 verse • First of the longest surah revealed. • More than half is story of the past. • V.3 how many nations have preceded you, so think? • V.7 Allah is going to tell the story, indeed he was present. • Allah chose us over all creatures. Iblis and his arrogance, story of Adam AS, Allah’s blessing. • Iblis was arrogant, he was the first racist. • Iblis made du’a to Allah at time desperation. • Iblis got his du’a answered by Allah, so how can we despair. • He asked for a long life only to misguide people. • V.16. iblis blamed Allah, that allah put him in error. • iblis and his army is lifetime enemy for us. • They see from a place over us which we cannot see, but we have the help of Allah. • When we blame Allah for our sin we are following the footstep of iblis. • V.23. o our lord we wronged ourselves, this was the response of our parents. • No human is perfect. • All son of Adam is sinners, but the best of them are the one who repent. • Disobeying Allah will bring bad consequences. • Allah forgive sins of all gravity. • V.26-33 detail regarding modesty. • V.27 the goal of Satan is to make us act immodestly, and strip our clothes away. • Allah sent us clothes or the knowledge of covering up. • I.e. true humanity is in covering up not nakedness. • Wear your best clothes when you go to masjid. • V.32. Allah has made these (good food and nice clothing) halal, then who is going to make it haram. • So enjoy the good of this world in a good manner. V.34. Akhira • The name A’araf is about people in the highest section, a position between heaven and hell, they can see both people of heaven and hell. • They may enter heaven, Allah knows best. • Who are the people of A’araf, they are the sinful of the Muslims, struggling Muslims with sins, • Which category do we belong? (Self-evaluate yourselves!) • Read the conversation of the people of a’araf and the people of heaven and hell. Story of prophets • V.59. prophet Noah AS. • V.65 prophed Hud AS. • V.73 prophet Saalih AS • V.80 propet Lut AS. • V. 85. Prophet Shuaib AS. • The common theme is truth v/s falsehood. • The moral message is present in each stories. • Thank Allah, worship him, live an ethical life. • They ridiculed the Prophet. • At present time also we witness the message of Islam being mocked. Relevant verse to current coronavirus situation. • V.96.And if only the people of the cities had believed and feared Allah, We would have opened [i.e., bestowed] upon them blessings from the heaven and the earth; but they denied [the messengers], so we seized them for what they were earning. • V.97. Then, did the people of the cities feel secure from our punishment coming to them at night while they were asleep? • V.100. has it not become clear to those who inherited the earth after its [previous] people that if we willed, we could afflict them for their sins? But we seal over their hearts so they do not hear. Story of Moses PBUH. • V.103 onwards the story of Mosses and the magicians against Moses convert to true faith. • V.138. the children of Israel even after saved from pharaoh, they turn to false gods. • V.133. So We sent upon them the flood and locusts and lice and frogs and blood as distinct signs, but they were arrogant and were a criminal people. • Each time after the punishment leave they turn back from Allah. • I.e. Allah gives a chance for all nations, before destroying them, (coronavirus may be a chance, Allah knows best). • Moses ask Allah a chance to see him • The holy tablet was handed over to Moses by Allah. • Allah spoke to Moses, directly. • After 30 days, when the prophet (Moses) didn’t came back they (Children of Israel) started worshipping the golden calf. • Moses came angry he threw the tablets and it cracked. • Moses get hold on Aaron. • 45:00 timestamp, point is profound. • Both were blood brothers, but not everyone is equal in action or work. • V.156. asking good for both world by Moses. • V.157. Those who follow the Messenger, the unlettered prophet, whom they find written [i.e., mentioned] in what they have of the Torah and the Gospel, who enjoins upon them what is right and forbids them what is wrong and makes lawful for them the good things and prohibits for them the evil and relieves them of their burden and the shackles which were upon them. So they who have believed in him, honored him, supported him and followed the light which was sent down with him - it is those who will be the successful. Story of the fisherman. • They were not allowed to do fishing on a particular day, but they tricked the law by setting the nets prior to the day before and they took rest on the specified day on which work was prohibited. But the righteous said that it is a sin, some people said they are lost so why advising them? • Allah saved the righteous ones who advised the sinners. • Moral 1. We can never trick the shariah. • Moral 2, the fate of the people who thought the sinners are lost is only known by Allah, I.e. they felt superior over the lost people, (Never feel superior over the sinners) Allah knows best. • V.169. there came the future generations, who didn’t take the religion seriously. • V.175-176. Non beneficial knowledge which didn’t helped one. • Lazy people with no knowledge, Knowledgeable people who didn’t act accordingly. Special note • V.43. when the people enter the heaven “And We will have removed whatever is within their breasts of resentment, [while] flowing beneath them are rivers. And they will say, "Praise to Allah, who has guided us to this; and we would never have been guided if Allah had not guided us. Certainly the messengers of our Lord had come with the truth." And they will be called, "This is Paradise, which you have been made to inherit for what you used to do." Conclusion. • V.196. Indeed, my protector is Allah, who has sent down the Book; and He is an ally to the righteous. • V.199. be tolerant, enjoin the good, turn away from the ignorant. • V.201. Indeed, those who fear Allah - when an impulse touches them from Satan, they remember [Him] and at once they have insight. • V.204 so when the Quran is recited, then listen to it and pay attention that you may receive mercy. • V.205. and remember your Lord within yourself in humility and in fear without being apparent in speech - in the mornings and the evenings. And do not be among the heedless. • V.206. verse of prostration. pdf link for above notes : drive.google.com/open?id=1kCk-zZTgGZmE6nH1X8_3YgumiB6iUstJ Folder link with all previous notes : drive.google.com/open?id=1QFY0lU7lm6OLfVjKTbn6obX3s06pp9x7 I ask Allah to forgive all my mistakes, and accept this from me. remember me in your prayers, may Allah bless us all. *Surprise* open link : drive.google.com/open?id=1Sw_HOziyntlIFfpiEZlkRYMdDaQCErzp

Allah warned of the consequences of not following his guidance by narrating to them the stories of Adam and Iblees, Previous Prophets and their people and by also depicting the hereafter and situation of righteous and wrongdoers in Paradise and Hell respectively. The later portion of Surah also addressing the People of the Book mainly because they will soon be getting this message directly as Prophet’s migration to Madina was approaching, and there were many tribes of Jews and Christians living in the outskirts of Al Madina...alhamdulillah for Allah guidance.
