Surah Al-Qamar

  Surah Al-Qamar   In the name of God, the Merciful, the Compassionate   The Hour (of Judgment) is nigh, and the moon is cleft asunder. ( Quran Surah Al-Qamar 54:1 )   But if they see a Sign, they turn away, and say, "This is (but) transient magic." ( Quran Surah Al-Qamar 54:2 )   They reject (the warning) and follow their (own) lusts but every matter has its appointed time. ( Quran Surah Al-Qamar 54:3 )   There have already come to them Recitals wherein there is (enough) to check (them), ( Quran 54:4 )   Mature wisdom;- but (the preaching of) Warners profits them not. ( Quran 54:5 )   Therefore, (O Prophet,) turn away from them. The Day that the Caller will call (them) to a terrible affair, ( Quran 54:6 )   They will come forth,- their eyes humbled - from (their) graves, (torpid) like locusts scattered abroad, ( Quran 54:7 )   Hastening, with eyes transfixed, towards the Caller!- "Hard is this Day!", the Unbelievers wi...

( Quran 51:7 )   Surely you are ˹lost˺ in conflicting views ˹regarding the truth˺. ( Quran 51:8 )   Only those ˹destined to be˺ deluded are turned away from it. ( Quran 51:9 )   Condemned are the liars— ( Quran 51:10 )   those who are ˹steeped˺ in ignorance, totally heedless. ( Quran 51:11 )   They ask ˹mockingly˺, “When is this Day of Jud...

Unveiling the Depths of Surah Al-Isra': A Spiritual and Moral Compass

Image
  Surah Al-Isra’ , the  17th chapter  of  the Holy Quran , holds a revered position within Islam. Its name, translating to “ The Night Journey ,” references a cornerstone event in Islamic history – the miraculous transportation of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) from the مقدس (Al-Masjid al-Haram), the Grand Mosque in Mecca, to the الأقصى (Al-Masjid al-Aqsa), the Farthest Mosque, often understood to be Jerusalem ( Quran 17:1 ).

Let’s embark on a detailed journey through this magnificent surah.
