أَلَمۡ تَرَوۡاْ أَنَّ ٱللَّهَ سَخَّرَ لَكُم مَّا فِي ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَمَا فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِ وَأَسۡبَغَ عَلَيۡكُمۡ نِعَمَهُۥ ظَٰهِرَةٗ وَبَاطِنَةٗۗ
Hence, your job is to express gratitude for these blessings by loving the Bestower, submitting to Him and using them to help you obey Him, not using any of them to disobey Him. Al-Saadi: 649.
Question: How should we be grateful to Allah for the blessings we have?
وَأَسۡبَغَ عَلَيۡكُمۡ نِعَمَهُۥ ظَٰهِرَةٗ وَبَاطِنَةٗۗ
(His favors, both apparent and hidden), the apparent favors are health, and wealth, etc. The hidden favors are things that no one knows about, among which is concealing evil deeds from others. Ibn Juzay: 2/174.
Question: Give examples of apparent and hidden favors.
وَأَسۡبَغَ عَلَيۡكُمۡ نِعَمَهُۥ ظَٰهِرَةٗ وَبَاطِنَةٗۗ
Ibn Abbas (k) said: "The apparent favor is Islam and the Quran, and the hidden favor is Allah's concealment of your sins, and His respite to you." Ad-Dahhak said: "The apparent favor is the shaping and perfection of human form, and the hidden favor is knowledge." Al-Qurtubi: 3/512.
Question: Mention two favors that you believe Allah selected you to have.
وَمِنَ ٱلنَّاسِ مَن يُجَٰدِلُ فِي ٱللَّهِ بِغَيۡرِ عِلۡمٖ وَلَا هُدٗى وَلَا كِتَٰبٖ مُّنِيرٖ ٢٠
(Without knowledge, guidance, or an enlightening scripture), this verse contains the stages of earning knowledge, which are: Independent reasoning, learning from a scholar, or reading the true scriptures. Ibn Ashur: 21/175.
Question: This verse contains the three stages of earning knowledge. Explain.
۞وَمَن يُسۡلِمۡ وَجۡهَهُۥٓ إِلَى ٱللَّهِ وَهُوَ مُحۡسِنٞ فَقَدِ ٱسۡتَمۡسَكَ بِٱلۡعُرۡوَةِ ٱلۡوُثۡقَىٰۗ وَإِلَى ٱللَّهِ عَٰقِبَةُ ٱلۡأُمُورِ ٢٢
Meaning: He devotes his worship sincerely to Allah, the Almighty. (And does good), since worshiping without doing good and submitting of the heart does not avail oneself. Al-Qurtubi: 16/487.
Question: How do you submit your face to Allah? And why is it contingent on doing good?
۞وَمَن يُسۡلِمۡ وَجۡهَهُۥٓ إِلَى ٱللَّهِ وَهُوَ مُحۡسِنٞ فَقَدِ ٱسۡتَمۡسَكَ بِٱلۡعُرۡوَةِ ٱلۡوُثۡقَىٰۗ وَإِلَى ٱللَّهِ عَٰقِبَةُ ٱلۡأُمُورِ ٢٢
(Indeed, Allah is All-Knowing of what is in the hearts), since part of the disbelief of the polytheists is apparent while another is hidden. Ibn Ashur: 21/178.
Question: The verse ends with (Indeed, Allah is All-Knowing of what is in the hearts). Why?
وَلَوۡ أَنَّمَا فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِ مِن شَجَرَةٍ أَقۡلَٰمٞ وَٱلۡبَحۡرُ يَمُدُّهُۥ مِنۢ بَعۡدِهِۦ سَبۡعَةُ أَبۡحُرٖ مَّا نَفِدَتۡ كَلِمَٰتُ ٱللَّهِۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ عَزِيزٌ حَكِيمٞ ٢٧
This verse points to the abundance of Allah's Words, which means His knowledge. It means that if all the trees on earth were pens and the sea were ink, replenished constantly by seven more seas, and these pens wrote the Words of Allah, the trees and seas would have been exhausted, because they are finite, but the Words of Allah would not because they are infinite. Ibn Juzay: 2/175.
Question: Mention the lesson learned from this verse.
