Surat al-Ahzab (The Enemy Alliance)
Sahih Bukhari Hadith Number 4781
Narrated Abu Huraira:
The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, “There is no believer but I, of all the people, I am the closest to him both in this world and in the Hereafter. Recite if you wish: ‘The Prophet (peace be upon him) is closer to the believers than their own selves.’ (33:6) So if a believer (dies) leaves some property then his relatives will inherit that property; but if he is in debt or he leaves poor children, let those (creditors and children) come to me (that I may pay the debt and provide for the children), for them I am his sponsor.”
(2) “Call them (adopted sons) by (the names of) their fathers. That is more just with Allah…” (V.33:5)
Sahih Bukhari Hadith Number 4782
Narrated Abdullah bin Umar:
We used not to call Zaid bin Haritha, the freed slave of Allah’s Messenger (peace be upon him), except Zaid bin Muhammad, till the Qur’anic Verse was revealed: “Call them (adopted sons) by (the names of) their fathers. That is more just in the Sight of Allah.” (33:5)
(3) “Of them, some have fulfilled their obligations (i.e ., have been martyred) and some of them are still waiting, but they have never changed (i.e., they never proved treacherous to their covenant which they concluded with Allah) in the least.” (V.33:23)
Sahih Bukhari Hadith Number 4783

Narrated Zaid bin Thabit:
When we collected the fragmentary manuscripts of the Qur’an into copies, I missed one of the Verses of Surat al-Ahzab which I used to hear Allah’s Messenger (peace be upon him) reciting. Finally I did not find it with anybody except Khuzaima Al-Ansari, whose witness was considered by Allah’s Messenger (peace be upon him) equal to the witness of two men. (And that Verse was:) “Among the believers are men who have been true to their covenant with Allah.” (33:23)
(4)
The Statement of Allah (the Exalted): “O Prophet! (Muḥammad pbuh)! Say to your wives: ‘If you desire the life of this world and its glitter, – then come! I will make a provision for you and set you free in a handsome manner (divorce)’.” (V.33:28)
Sahih Bukhari Hadith Number 4785
Narrated Aisha:
(The wife of the Prophet) Allah’s Messenger (peace be upon him) came to me when Allah ordered him to give option to his wives. So Allah’s Messenger (peace be upon him) started with me, saying, “I am going to mention to you something but you should not hasten (to give your reply) unless you consult your parents.” He knew that my parents would not order me to leave him. Then he said, “Allah says: ‘O Prophet! Say to your wives…’ (33:28-29)” On that I said to him, “Then why should I consult my parents? Verily, I seek Allah, His Apostle, and the Home of the Hereafter.”
(5)
The Statement of Allah the Exalted: “But if you desire Allah and His Messenger, and the home of the Hereafter, then verily, Allah has prepared for Al-Muhsināt (good-doers) amongst you an enormous reward.” (V.33:29)
Sahih Bukhari Hadith Number 4786
Narrated Aisha:
(The wife of the Prophet) When Allah’s Messenger (peace be upon him) was ordered to give option to his wives, he started with me, saying, “I am going to mention to you something, but you shall not hasten (to give your reply) unless you consult your parents.” The Prophet (peace be upon him) knew that my parents would not order me to leave him. Then he said, “Allah says: ‘O Prophet! Say to your wives: If you desire the life of this world and its glitter … a great reward.’ (33:28-29)” I said, “Then why should I consult my parents? Verily, I seek Allah, His Apostle, and the Home of the Hereafter.” Then all the other wives of the Prophet (peace be upon him) did the same as I did.
(6) The Statement of Allah the Exalted: “And (remember) when you said to him (Zaid bin Haritha [may Allah be pleased with him] – the freed slave of the Prophet pbuh) on whom Allah has bestowed grace (by guiding him to Islam) and you (O Muḥammad pbuh too) have done favour (by manumitting him): ‘Keep your wife to yourself and fear Allah.’ But you did hide in yourself (i.e., what Allah has already made known to you that He will give her to you in marriage) that which Allah will make manifest, you did fear people (i.e., Muḥammad pbuh married the divorced wife of his manumitted slave) whereas Allah had a better right that you should fear Him…” (V.33:37)
Sahih Bukhari Hadith Number 4787
Narrated Anas bin Malik:
The Verse: “But you did hide in your mind that which Allah was about to make manifest.” (33:37) was revealed concerning Zainab bint Jahsh and Zaid bin Haritha.

The Statement of Allah the Most High: “You (O Muḥammad pbuh) can postpone (the turn of) whom you will of them (your wives), and you may receive whom you will. And whomsoever you desire of those whom you have set aside (her turn temporarily), it is no sin on you (to receive her again)…” (V.33:51)
Sahih Bukhari Hadith Number 4788
Narrated Aisha:
I used to look down upon those ladies who had given themselves to Allah’s Messenger (peace be upon him) and I used to say, “Can a lady give herself (to a man)?” But when Allah revealed: “You (O Muhammad) can postpone the turn of whom you will of them (your wives), and you may receive any of them whom you will; and there is no blame on you if you invite one whose turn you have set aside (temporarily).” (33:51) I said (to the Prophet), “I feel that your Lord hastens in fulfilling your wishes and desires.”
Sahih Bukhari Hadith Number 4789
Narrated Mu‘adha:
Aisha said, “Allah’s Messenger (peace be upon him) used to take the permission of that wife with whom he was supposed to stay overnight if he wanted to go to one other than her, after this Verse was revealed: ‘You (O Muhammad) can postpone the turn of whom you will of them (your wives), and you may receive any of them whom you will; and there is no blame on you if you invite one whose turn you have set aside (temporarily).’ (33:51) I asked Aisha, ‘What did you use to say in this case?’ She said, ‘I used to say to him, If I could deny you the permission, I would not allow your favor to be bestowed on any other person.'”

Narrated Umar:
I said, “O Allah’s Messenger (peace be upon him)! Good and bad persons enter upon you, so I suggest that you order the mothers of the Believers (i.e., your wives) to observe veils.” Then Allah revealed the Verses of Al-Hijab.
Sahih Bukhari Hadith Number 4791
Narrated Anas bin Malik:
When Allah’s Messenger (peace be upon him) married Zainab bint Jahsh, he invited the people to a meal. They ate and remained sitting and talking. The Prophet (peace be upon him) showed that he was ready to get up, yet they did not. When he noticed that, he stood up, and the others too, except three persons who kept on sitting. The Prophet (peace be upon him) came back to enter his house, but he went away again. Then they left, whereupon I went to the Prophet (peace be upon him) to tell him they had departed. He came and entered his house. I wanted to enter along with him, but he placed a screen between me and him. Then Allah revealed: “O you who believe! Do not enter the houses of the Prophet…” (33:53)
Sahih Bukhari Hadith Number 4792
Narrated Anas bin Malik:
I of all the people know best this verse of Al-Hijab. When Allah’s Messenger (peace be upon him) married Zainab bint Jahsh she was with him in the house and he prepared a meal and invited the people to it. They sat down after finishing their meal and started chatting. So the Prophet (peace be upon him) went out and then returned several times while they were still sitting and talking. So Allah revealed the Verse: “O you who believe! Enter not the Prophet’s houses until leave is given to you for a meal, (and then) not (so early as) to wait for its preparation… ask them from behind a screen.” (33:53) So the screen was set up and the people went away.
Sahih Bukhari Hadith Number 4793
Narrated Anas:
A banquet of bread and meat was held on the occasion of the marriage of the Prophet (peace be upon him) to Zainab bint Jahsh. I was sent to invite the people to the banquet, and so the people started coming in groups. They would eat and then leave. Another batch would come, eat and leave. So I kept on inviting the people till I found nobody to invite. Then I said, “O Allah’s Prophet! I do not find anybody to invite.” He said, “Carry away the remaining food.” Then a batch of three persons stayed in the house chatting. The Prophet (peace be upon him) left and went towards the dwelling place of Aisha and said, “Peace and Allah’s Mercy be on you, O the people of the house!” She replied, “Peace and the mercy of Allah be on you too. How did you find your wife? May Allah bless you.” Then he went to the dwelling places of all his other wives and said to them the same as he said to Aisha and they said to him the same as Aisha had said to him. Then the Prophet (peace be upon him) returned and found a group of three persons still in the house chatting. The Prophet was a very shy person, so he went out for the second time and went towards the dwelling place of Aisha. I do not remember whether I informed him that the people had gone away. So he returned and as soon as he entered the gate, he drew the curtain between me and him, and then the Verse of Al-Hijab was revealed.
Sahih Bukhari Hadith Number 4794
Narrated Anas:
When Allah’s Messenger (peace be upon him) married Zainab bint Jahsh, he made the people eat meat and bread to their fill by giving a Walima banquet. Then he went out to the dwelling places of the mothers of the believers, as he used to do in the morning of his marriage. He would greet them and invoke good on them, and they too would return his greeting and invoke good on him. When he returned to his house, he found two men talking to each other, and when he saw them, he went out of his house again. When those two men saw Allah’s Messenger (peace be upon him) going out of his house, they quickly got up and departed. I do not remember whether I informed him of their departure, or he was informed by somebody else. So he returned, and when he entered the house, he lowered the curtain between me and him. Then the Verse of Al-Hijab was revealed.
Sahih Bukhari Hadith Number 4795
Narrated Aisha:
Sauda, the wife of the Prophet, went out to answer the call of nature after it was made obligatory for all the Muslim ladies to observe the veil. She had a large frame and everybody who knew her before could recognize her. So Umar bin Al-Khattab saw her and said, “O Sauda! By Allah, you cannot hide yourself from us, so think of a way by which you should not be recognized on going out.” Sauda returned while Allah’s Messenger (peace be upon him) was in my house taking his supper and a bone covered with meat was in his hand. She entered and said, “O Allah’s Messenger (peace be upon him)! I went out to answer the call of nature and Umar said to me so-and-so.” Then Allah inspired him, and when the state of inspiration was over and the bone was still in his hand as he had not put it down, he said to Sauda, “You women have been allowed to go out for your needs.”
(9) The Statement of Allah the Exalted: “Whether you reveal anything or conceal it, verily, Allah is [the] Ever All-Knower of everything… (up to) … Verily, Allah is Ever All-Witness over everything.” (V-33:54,55)
Sahih Bukhari Hadith Number 4796
Narrated Aisha:
Aflah, the brother of Abi Al-Qu‘ais, asked permission to visit me after the order of Al-Hijab was revealed. I said, “I will not permit him unless I take permission of the Prophet (peace be upon him), for it was not the brother of Abi Al-Qu‘ais but the wife of Abi Al-Qu‘ais that nursed me.” The Prophet (peace be upon him) entered upon me, and I said to him, “O Allah’s Messenger (peace be upon him)! Aflah, the brother of Abi Al-Qu‘ais asked permission to visit me but I refused to permit him unless I took your permission.” The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, “What stopped you from permitting him? He is your uncle.” I said, “O Allah’s Messenger (peace be upon him)! The man was not the person who had nursed me, but the woman, the wife of Abi Al-Qu‘ais, had nursed me.” He said, “Admit him, for he is your uncle. Taribat Yaminuki (may your right hand be saved).” Urwa, the sub-narrator, added: For that Aisha used to say, “Consider those things which are illegal because of blood relations as illegal because of the corresponding foster relations.”
The Statement of Allah the Most High: “Allah sends His Salat (Graces, Honours, Blessings and Mercy) on the Prophet (Muhammad peace be upon him) and also His angels (ask Allah to bless and forgive him)…” (33:56)
Sahih Bukhari Hadith Number 4797
Narrated Ka‘b bin Ujra:
It was said, “O Allah’s Messenger (peace be upon him)! We know how to greet you, but how to invoke Allah for you?” The Prophet said, “Say: Allahumma salli ala Muhammadin wa‘ala Ali Muhammaddin, kama sallaita ‘ala Ali Ibrahim, innaka Hamidun Majid.”
Sahih Bukhari Hadith Number 4798
Narrated Abu Sa‘id Al-Khudri:
We said, “O Allah’s Messenger (peace be upon him)! We know this greeting to you, but how shall we invoke Allah for you?” He said, “Say: Allahumma salli ala Muhammadin ‘abdika wa rasulika kama sallaita ‘ala Ali Ibrahim, wa barik ‘ala Muhammadin wa ‘ala Ali Muhammadin kama barakta ‘ala Ali Ibrahim.”
Narrated Ibn Abi Hazim and Ad-Darawardi:
Yazid said, “Kama sallaita ‘ala Ibrahim wa barik ‘ala Muhammadin wa Ali Muhammadin kama barakta ‘ala Ibrahim wa Ali Ibrahim.”
Chapter: “Be you not like those who annoyed Musa (Moses).” (33:69)
Sahih Bukhari Hadith Number 4799
Narrated Abu Huraira:
Allah’s Messenger (peace be upon him) said, “Moses was a shy man, and that is what the Statement of Allah means: ‘O you who believe! Be not like those who annoyed Moses, but Allah proved his innocence of that which they alleged, and he was honorable in Allah’s Sight.'”
Surat Saba’ (Sheba)
Chapter: “…So much so that when fear is banished from their (angels’) hearts, they (angels) say: ‘What is it that your Lord has said?’ They say: ‘The truth. And He is the Most High, the Most Great.'” (34:23)
Sahih Bukhari Hadith Number 4800
Narrated Abu Huraira:
Allah’s Prophet (peace be upon him) said, “When Allah decrees some order in the heaven, the angels flutter their wings indicating complete surrender to His saying which sounds like chains being dragged on rock. And when the state of fear disappears, they ask each other, ‘What has your Lord ordered?’ They say that He has said that which is true and just, and He is the Most High, the Most Great. Then the stealthy listeners (devils) hear this order, and these stealthy listeners are like this, one over the other.” (Sufyan, a sub-narrator, demonstrated that by holding his hand upright and separating the fingers.) “A stealthy listener hears a word which he will convey to that which is below him and the second will convey it to that which is below him till the last of them will convey it to the wizard or foreteller. Sometimes a flame (fire) may strike the devil before he can convey it, and sometimes he may convey it before the flame (fire) strikes him, whereupon the wizard adds to that word a hundred lies. The people will then say, ‘Didn’t he (i.e. magician) tell such-and-such a thing on such-and-such date?’ So that magician is said to have told the truth because of the Statement which has been heard from the heavens.”
Chapter: “…He (Muhammad peace be upon him) is only a warner to you in face of a severe torment.” (34:46)
Sahih Bukhari Hadith Number 4801
Narrated Ibn Abbas:
One day the Prophet (peace be upon him) ascended Safa mountain and said, “Oh Sabah!” All the Quraish gathered round him and said, “What is the matter?” He said, “Look, if I told you that an enemy is going to attack you in the morning or in the evening, would you not believe me?” They said, “Yes, we will believe you.” He said, “I am a warner to you in face of a terrible punishment.” On that Abu Lahab said, “May you perish! Is it for this thing that you have gathered us?” So Allah revealed: ‘Perish the hands of Abu Lahab!’ (111:1).

Once I was with the Prophet (peace be upon him) in the mosque at the time of sunset. The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, “O Abu Dharr!

And that is the decree of the All-Mighty, the All-Knowing.'”

Surat Sad (Sad)
Sahih Bukhari Hadith Number 4806
Narrated Al-Awwam:
I asked Mujahid regarding the prostration in Surat Sad. He said, “Ibn Abbas was asked the same question and he said, ‘Those are they (the prophets) whom Allah had guided. So follow their guidance.’ Ibn Abbas used to perform a prostration (on reading this Surah).”
Sahih Bukhari Hadith Number 4807
Narrated Al-Awwam:
I asked Mujahid regarding the prostration in Surat Sad. He said, “I asked Ibn Abbas, ‘What evidence makes you prostrate?’ He said, ‘Don’t you recite: And among his progeny, David and Solomon (6:84). Those are they whom Allah had guided. So follow their guidance (6:90). David was one of those prophets whom your Prophet (peace be upon him) was ordered to follow. David prostrated, so Allah’s Messenger (peace be upon him) performed this prostration too.'”

I intended to tie him to one of the pillars of the mosque till the morning so that all of you could see him, but then I remembered the statement of my brother Solomon: ‘My Lord! Forgive me and bestow on me a kingdom such as shall not belong to any other after me.’ Then he dismissed him, rejected.”
The Statement of Allah the Exalted: “…Nor am I one of the Mutakallifūn (those who pretend and fabricate things which do not exist).” (38:86)
Sahih Bukhari Hadith Number 4809
Narrated Masruq:
We came upon Abdullah bin Masud and he said, “O people! If somebody knows something, he can say it, but if he does not know it, he should say, ‘Allah knows better,’ for it is a sign of having knowledge to say about something which one does not know, ‘Allah knows better.’ Allah said to His Prophet: ‘Say (O Muhammad (peace be upon him)): No wage do I ask of you for this (Qur’an), nor am I one of the pretenders (a person who pretends things which do not exist).’ (38:86)
Now I will tell you about Ad-Dukhan (the smoke). Allah’s Messenger (peace be upon him) invited the Quraish to embrace Islam, but they delayed their response. So he said, ‘O Allah! Help me against them by sending on them seven years of famine similar to the seven years of famine of Joseph.’ So the famine year overtook them and everything was destroyed till they ate dead animals and skins. People started imagining to see smoke between them and the sky because of severe hunger.
Allah said: ‘Then watch you for the Day that the sky will bring forth a kind of smoke plainly visible, covering the people. This is painful torment.’ (44:10-11) So they invoked Allah: ‘Our Lord! Remove the punishment from us, really we are believers.’ How can there be an effectual reminder for them when an Apostle, explaining things clearly, has already come to them? Then they had turned away from him and said: ‘One taught (by a human being), a madman?’ ‘We shall indeed remove punishment for a while, but truly, you will revert (to disbelief).’ (44:12-15)
Abdullah added, “The punishment was removed from them for a while but they reverted to disbelief, so Allah destroyed them on the Day of Badr. Allah said: ‘The Day We shall seize you with a mighty grasp, We will indeed exact retribution.’ (44:16)”
The Statement of Allah the Most High: Say: ‘O My slaves who have transgressed against themselves! Despair not of the Mercy of Allah…’ (39:53)
Sahih Bukhari Hadith Number 4810
Narrated Ibn Abbas:
Some pagans who committed murders in great number and committed illegal sexual intercourse excessively came to Muhammad (peace be upon him) and said, “O Muhammad! Whatever you say and invite people to is good, but we wish if you could inform us whether we can make an expiation for our past evil deeds.”
So the Divine Verses came: ‘Those who invoke not with Allah any other god, do not kill such life as Allah has forbidden except for just cause, nor commit illegal sexual intercourse.’ (25:68) And there was also revealed: ‘Say: O My slaves who have transgressed against their souls! Despair not of the Mercy of Allah.’ (39:53)
The Statement of Allah the Most High: ‘They made not a just estimate of Allah such as is due to Him…’ (39:67)
Sahih Bukhari Hadith Number 4811
Narrated Abdullah:
A Jewish Rabbi came to Allah’s Messenger (peace be upon him) and said, “O Muhammad! We learn that Allah will put all the heavens on one finger, the earths on one finger, the trees on one finger, the water and the dust on one finger, and all the other created beings on one finger. Then He will say, ‘I am the King.'”
Thereupon the Prophet (peace be upon him) smiled so that his premolar teeth became visible, and that was the confirmation of the Rabbi. Then Allah’s Messenger (peace be upon him) recited: “They made not a just estimate of Allah such as is due to Him. And on the Day of Resurrection the whole of the earth will be grasped by His Hand, and the heavens will be rolled up in His Right Hand. Glorified is He, and High is He above all that they associate as partners with Him.” (39:67)

Sahih Bukhari Hadith Number 4813
Narrated Abu Huraira:
The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, “I will be the first to raise my head after the second blowing of the trumpet and will see Moses holding the Throne. I will not know whether he had been in that state all the time or after the blowing of the trumpet.”
Sahih Bukhari Hadith Number 4814
Narrated Abu Huraira:
The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, “Between the two blowing of the trumpet there will be forty.”
The people said, “O Abu Huraira! Forty days?” I refused to reply. They said, “Forty years?” I refused to reply. They said, “Forty months?” I refused to reply and added: “Everything of the human body will decay except the coccyx bone (of the tail), and from that bone Allah will reconstruct the whole body.”
(40) Surat Ghafir (The Forgiver)
Sahih Bukhari Hadith 4815
Narrated Urwa bin Az-Zubair: I asked
Abdullah bin Amr bin Al-
As to inform me of the worst thing the pagans had done to Allah’s Messenger (peace be upon him). He said: “While Allah’s Messenger (peace be upon him) was praying in the courtyard of the Kaba,
Uqba bin Abi Mu’ait came and seized Allah’s Messenger (peace be upon him) by the shoulder and twisted his garment round his neck and throttled him severely. Abu Bakr came and seized `Uqba’s shoulder and threw him away from Allah’s Apostle and said, ‘Would you kill a man because he says: My Lord is Allah, and has come to you with clear Signs from your Lord?'”
(41) Surat Fussilat (Verses Perfectly Explained)
(1) The Statement of Allah the Most High: “And you have not been hiding yourself (in the world), lest your ears, and your eyes, and your skins should testify against you…” (V.41:22)
Sahih Bukhari Hadith 4816
Narrated Ibn Mas`ud:
(Regarding) the Verse: “And you have not been screening against yourself lest your ears, and your eyes and your skins should testify against you..” (41.22). While two persons from Quraish and their brother-in-law from Thaqif (or two persons from Thaqif and their brother-in-law from Quraish) were in a house, they said to each other, “Do you think that Allah hears our talks?” Some said, “He hears a portion thereof.” Others said, “If He can hear a portion of it, He can hear all of it.” Then the following Verse was revealed: “And you have not been screening against yourself lest your ears, and your eyes and your skins should testify against you…” (41.22)
(2) The Statement of Allah the Most High: “And that thought of yours which you thought about your Lord, has brought you to destruction, and you have become (this Day) of those utterly lost!” (V.41:23)
Sahih Bukhari Hadith 4817
Narrated Abdullah: There gathered near the House (i.e. the Ka
ba) two Quraishi persons and a person from Thaqif (or two persons from Thaqif and one from Quraish), and all of them with very fat bellies but very little intelligence. One of them said, “Do you think that Allah hears what we say?” Another said, “He hears us when we talk in a loud voice, but He doesn’t hear us when we talk in a low tone.” The third said, “If He can hear when we talk in a loud tone, then He can also hear when we speak in a low tone.” Then Allah, the Honorable, the Majestic revealed: “And you have not been screening against yourself lest your ears, and eyes and your skins should testify against you….” (41.22-23)
This hadith has been narrated through another chain as well.
Chapter: The Statement of Allah the Most High: “…Except to be kind to me for my kinship with you…” (42:23)
Sahih Bukhari Hadith 4818
Narrated Ibn Abbas: That he was asked regarding: "Except to be kind to me for my kinship with you." (42:23) Sa
id bin Jubair (who was present then) said, “It means here (to show what is due for) the relatives of Muhammad.” On that Ibn `Abbas said: “You have hurried in giving the answer! There was no branch of the tribe of Quraish but the Prophet (peace be upon him) had relatives therein. The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, ‘I do not want anything from you except to be kind to me for my kinship with you.'”
(43) Surat az-Zukhruf (Ornaments)
Chapter: The Statement of Allah the Exalted: “And they will cry: ‘O Mālik (Keeper of Hell)! Let your Lord make an end of us.’ He will say, ‘Verily, you shall abide forever.'” (43:77)
Sahih Bukhari Hadith 4819

(44) Surat ad-Dukhan (The Smoke)
Chapter: The Statement of Allah the Most High: “Then wait you for the Day when the sky will bring forth a visible smoke.” (44:10)
Sahih Bukhari Hadith 4820
Narrated `Abdullah: Five things have passed, i.e. the smoke, the defeat of the Romans, the splitting of the moon, Al-Batsha (the defeat of the infidels in the battle of Badr) and Al-Lizam (the punishment).
Chapter: “Covering the people, this is a painful torment.” (44:11)
Sahih Bukhari Hadith 4821
Narrated `Abdullah: It (i.e., the imagined smoke) was because, when the Quraish refused to obey the Prophet, he asked Allah to afflict them with years of famine similar to those of Joseph. So they were stricken with famine and fatigue, so much so that they ate even bones. A man would look towards the sky and imagine seeing something like smoke between him and the sky because of extreme fatigue. Then someone (Abu Sufyan) came to Allah’s Messenger (peace be upon him) and said, “O Allah’s Messenger (peace be upon him)! Invoke Allah to send rain for the tribes of Mudar for they are on the verge of destruction.” The Prophet (peace be upon him) prayed for rain and it rained for them. Then the verse was revealed: “But truly you will return (to disbelief).” (44:15) When the famine was over and they restored prosperity and welfare, they reverted to their ways of heathenism, whereupon Allah revealed: “On the Day when We shall seize you with a Mighty Grasp.

Narrated `Abdullah: It is a sign of having knowledge that, when you do not know something, you say: “Allah knows better.” Allah said to His Prophet: “Say: No wage do I ask of you for this (Qur’an), nor am I one of the pretenders.” (38:86) When the Quraish troubled and stood against the Prophet (peace be upon him), he said, “O Allah! Help me against them by afflicting them with seven years of famine like the seven years of Joseph.” So they were stricken with famine during which they ate bones and dead animals. One of them would see something like smoke between him and the sky because of hunger. Then they said: “Our Lord! Remove the torment from us, really we are believers.” (44:12) Allah told His Prophet: “If We remove it from them, they will revert to their ways.” The Prophet (peace be upon him) invoked his Lord, who removed the punishment, but later they reverted. Allah punished them on the Day of the Battle of Badr, as indicated in: “Then watch for the day that the sky will bring forth a kind of smoke plainly visible… We will indeed exact retribution.” (44:10, 16).

Help me against them by afflicting them with seven years of famine similar to the seven years of Joseph.' They were stricken with drought that destroyed everything, and they started eating dead animals. If one of them got up, he would see something like smoke between him and the sky due to severe hunger."
Abdullah then recited: “Then watch you for the Day that the sky will bring forth a kind of smoke plainly visible, covering the people. This is a painful torment… We shall indeed remove the punishment for a while, but truly you will revert.” (44:10–15) He then said: “The severe grasp was the Day of the Battle of Badr.”

Help me against them by afflicting them with seven years of famine similar to the seven years of Joseph." They were afflicted with a drought that destroyed everything, and they ate bones and hides. Abu Sufyan then came to the Prophet (peace be upon him) and said, "O Muhammad! Your people are on the verge of destruction! Please invoke Allah to relieve them." The Prophet (peace be upon him) invoked Allah, and the famine was lifted, but he warned them, "You will revert to disbelief after this."
Abdullah then recited: “Then watch you for the Day that the sky will bring forth a kind of smoke plainly visible… but truly you will revert.” (44:10–15) He added: “The smoke, the mighty grasp, Al-Lizam, the splitting of the moon, and the defeat of the Romans have all passed.”

When people see clouds they usually feel happy, hoping that it would rain, while I see that when you see clouds, one could notice signs of dissatisfaction on your face." He said, "O
Aisha! What is the guarantee for me that there will be no punishment in it, since some people were punished with a wind? Verily, some people saw (received) the punishment, but while seeing the cloud they said, ‘This cloud will give us rain.'”

Umar (May Umar's mother lose her son)! I asked Allah's Messenger (peace be upon him) three times but he did not reply."

But before getting involved in any other matter, I heard somebody calling me. I said to myself, ‘I fear that some Qur’anic Verses have been revealed about me,’ and so I went to Allah’s Messenger (peace be upon him) and greeted him.

You are My slave and My Messenger, and I have named you Al-Mutawakkil (the one who depends upon Allah). You are neither hard-hearted nor of fierce character, nor one who shouts in the markets. You do not return evil for evil, but excuse and forgive. Allah will not take you unto Him until He guides through you a crooked nation on the right path by causing them to say: ‘None has the right to be worshipped but Allah.’ With such a statement He will cause to open blind eyes, deaf ears and hardened hearts.”

Ali said, ‘Yes, I agree that we should settle the matter in the light of the Qur’an.’ Some people objected to Ali's agreement and wanted to fight. On that Sahl bin Hunaif said, 'Blame yourselves! I remember how, on the day of Al-Hudaibiya, if we had been allowed to choose fighting, we would have fought the pagans. At that time
Umar came to the Prophet and said, ‘Aren’t we on the right path and they in the wrong? Won’t our killed persons go to Paradise, and theirs in the Fire?’ The Prophet replied, ‘Yes.’ Umar further said, 'Then why should we let our religion be degraded and return before Allah has settled the matter between us?'

Umar, “You wanted nothing but to oppose me!” Umar said, "I did not intend to oppose you." Their voices grew loud in that argument, so Allah revealed: *"O you who believe! Raise not your voices above the voice of the Prophet."* (49:2) Ibn Az-Zubair said, "Since the revelation of this Verse,

The man said to Thabit, “What is the matter with you?” Thabit replied that it was an evil affair, for he used to raise his voice above the voice of the Prophet (peace be upon him), and so all his good deeds had been annulled, and he considered himself as one of the people of the Fire. The man returned to the Prophet (peace be upon him) and told him what Thabit had said. The Prophet (peace be upon him) sent the man back with great glad tidings: “Go back to him and say to him: ‘You are not from the people of the Hell Fire, but from the people of Paradise.'”

And each of you will have its fill.’ The Fire will not be filled until Allah puts His Foot over it, whereupon it will say, ‘Qati! Qati!’ At that time it will be filled, and its different parts will come closer to each other; and Allah will not wrong any of His creation. As for Paradise, Allah will create a new creation to fill it.”

Narrated `Abdullah bin Qais:
Allah’s Messenger (peace be upon him) said, “In Paradise there is a pavilion made of a single hollow pearl sixty miles wide, in each corner of which there are wives who will not see those in the other corners; and the believers will visit and enjoy them. And there are two gardens, the utensils and contents of which are made of silver; and two other gardens, the utensils and contents of which are made of gold, and nothing will prevent the people staying in the Garden of Eden from seeing their Lord except the curtain of Majesty over His Face.”
