ثُمَّ جَعَلۡنَا لَهُۥ جَهَنَّمَ يَصۡلَىٰهَا مَذۡمُومٗا مَّدۡحُورٗا ١٨
Meaning: He will be in a state of disgrace, shame and condemnation from Allah and from His created beings, far removed from the mercy of Allah. So, punishment and disgrace will be combined for him. Al-Saadi: 455.
Question: The punishment in Hellfire will be both physical and mental. Explain in the light of this verse.
وَمَنۡ أَرَادَ ٱلۡأٓخِرَةَ وَسَعَىٰ لَهَا سَعۡيَهَا وَهُوَ مُؤۡمِنٞ فَأُوْلَٰٓئِكَ كَانَ سَعۡيُهُم مَّشۡكُورٗا ١٩
This verse alerts to the fact that desiring the Hereafter without striving for it is a mere delusion. Desiring anything must be accompanied by pursuing the means to achieve it. Ibn Ashur: 15/60.
Question: It is considered heedlessness and delusional to desire good things, yet, you do not pursue the means to achieve them. Explain in light of this verse.
وَقَضَىٰ رَبُّكَ أَلَّا تَعۡبُدُوٓاْ إِلَّآ إِيَّاهُ وَبِٱلۡوَٰلِدَيۡنِ إِحۡسَٰنًاۚ إِمَّا يَبۡلُغَنَّ عِندَكَ ٱلۡكِبَرَ أَحَدُهُمَآ أَوۡ كِلَاهُمَا فَلَا تَقُل لَّهُمَآ أُفّٖ وَلَا تَنۡهَرۡهُمَا وَقُل لَّهُمَا قَوۡلٗا كَرِيمٗا ٢٣
The old age of parents is mentioned because that is when they need kindness and care more than ever due to their weakness. Ibn Juzay: 1/485.
Question: Allah singles out parents' old age for more kindness even though it is obligated at all times. Why?
وَقَضَىٰ رَبُّكَ أَلَّا تَعۡبُدُوٓاْ إِلَّآ إِيَّاهُ وَبِٱلۡوَٰلِدَيۡنِ إِحۡسَٰنًاۚ إِمَّا يَبۡلُغَنَّ عِندَكَ ٱلۡكِبَرَ أَحَدُهُمَآ أَوۡ كِلَاهُمَا فَلَا تَقُل لَّهُمَآ أُفّٖ وَلَا تَنۡهَرۡهُمَا وَقُل لَّهُمَا قَوۡلٗا كَرِيمٗا ٢٣
(Uff) is a word of annoyance which is usually said at times of irritation, etc., but what is meant is the least dislikable word uttered by people. Since Allah forbids saying such words to parents, then what is considered worse than these words is even more prohibited. Ibn Juzay: 1/485.
Question: The prohibition of saying the word (uff) implies a stern warning to the offspring. Explain.
وَقُل رَّبِّ ٱرۡحَمۡهُمَا كَمَا رَبَّيَانِي صَغِيرٗا ٢٤
From this, it is understood that the longer they take care of you, the more rights they have over you. Similarly, if someone other than the parents takes care of a person with regard to his religious and worldly interests, and shows him the right path in a sound manner, that person is indebted to the one who took care of him. Al-Saadi: 456.
Question: We often hear: the teacher is like a second father, then, what is the teacher's deserved right?
وَقُل رَّبِّ ٱرۡحَمۡهُمَا كَمَا رَبَّيَانِي صَغِيرٗا ٢٤
Allah mentions the "bringing up" so that the servant will always remember the compassion and tiredness of his parents in bringing him up, which will increase his tenderness and kindness toward them. Al-Qurtubi: 13/60.
Question: What is the aim of mentioning parents bringing up of their son when he was a child?
وَلَا تُبَذِّرۡ تَبۡذِيرًا ٢٦ إِنَّ ٱلۡمُبَذِّرِينَ كَانُوٓاْ إِخۡوَٰنَ ٱلشَّيَٰطِينِۖ وَكَانَ ٱلشَّيۡطَٰنُ لِرَبِّهِۦ كَفُورٗا ٢٧
Whoever spends his wealth on desires that are beyond his needs and risks losing his wealth is a wasteful spender. Al-Qurtubi: 13/65.
Question: When is the servant considered to be a wasteful spender?
