17. The Children of Israel

17 – 50 – 111 – 12

Bani Israel------The Children of Israel

The Journey by Night

1 Allah took Muhammad (pbuh) on a tour of the universe. 

Allah fulfilled the prophecy made in the Holy Book of the

Israelites that they will create mischief in the land twice

and each time they will be punished.

The Qur'an guides to the perfect Straight Way. 

2 On the Day of Judgment, each individual shall be given the

book of his own deeds. 

He that seeks guidance does so to his own good and he who

goes astray does so to his own loss. 

He that desires the transitory things of this life is given here,

but in the Hereafter he shall be condemned to hell. 

3 Some commandments of Allah for the believers including proper behavior

with parents, relatives, and the community at large. 

4 The commandments (continued) . . . 

5 If there were other gods besides Allah, they would have tried

to dethrone Him. 

Belief in the Hereafter is necessary to understand the Qur'an.

Hereafter is life after death. 

The questions of disbelievers on resurrection.

6 Believers should speak only good words. 

Invented gods have no power to relieve you from any distress. Why the signs are not sent to Muhammad (pbuh) like prior prophets. 

7 Shaitân, his enmity with human beings, and his vow to seduce them. 

Allah has provided conveyance for you on land and sea. 

8 Accountability of every community and its leaders. 

No compromise is allowed in matters of Islamic law and principles.
Five times daily Salah (prayers) and an extra prayer (called

Tahajjud) for the Holy Prophet.

9 The Qur'an is a healing and mercy for the believers. 

10 Ar-Rûh (Spirit) is at the command of Allah.

No one can produce a Qur'an like this. Allah has used different methods in the Qur'an to make people

understand His Message. 11 Allah has sent a human Rasool to human beings; if the dwellers of earth

had been Angels, Allah would have sent an angel as a Rasool. Guidance by Allah only; Disbelievers will be resurrected as deaf, blind.. 

Only disbelievers can doubt life after death. 

12 Musa was given nine signs; people still did not believe him. The Qur'an is revealed in truth and with the truth it has come down in

sections to suit each occasion, for easy deliberation.

Offer Salah neither too loud nor in too low a voice,

adopt the middle course.
