29 – 85 – 69 – 7

Al-Ankabut------The Spider

1 Allah tests the believers to see, who is truthful

and who is a liar? 

Be kind to your parents but do not obey them in the matter of shirk.

Those who say, "Follow us, we will bear your burden," are liars. 

2 Nûh admonished his people for 950 years not to commit shirk.

Likewise, Ibrâheem admonished his people not to commit

shirk. 

3 The people of Ibrâheem even tried to burn him alive but Allah

saved him.

Lût (his nephew) is the only one who affirmed his belief

with him. 

Lût was appointed as a Rasool towards the nation of homosexuals.

Likewise the Nations of 'Ad, Thamûd, Madyan and Fir‘aun

rejected the Rasools of Allah, which resulted in their

destruction. 

The parable of those who take protectors other than Allah. 

5 Salah (Prayer) keeps one away from shameful deeds and

Do not argue with the People of the Book except in good taste. 

6 Those who believe in falsehood and disbelieve Allah shall be the losers.

How many creatures are there who do not carry their provisions

with them ? Allah provides them as He provides you.

7 The life of this world is nothing but pastime, the real life is the life Hereafter.

Those who strive in Our cause, We do guide them to Our Way.

Al-Rum------The Romans

1 The Romans' (Christians) defeat at the hands of Persia (Pagans)

was taken as a sign of the Muslims' defeat at the hands of

Arab unbelievers, so Allah gave good tidings for the Roman

victory as well as the Muslim victory in a few years. 

2 It is Allah Who originates creation and then repeats it and

to Him everyone will be brought for final Judgment. 

3 The creation of Man, his consort, heavens, earth, language,

colors, sleep, quest for work, lightening, rain and

growth of vegetation - all are the signs from Allah. 

4 The wrongdoers are led by their own appetites without real knowledge.

True faith and the nature of sects. 

When an affliction befalls people, they call upon Allah, but

when He relieves them, lo! They start committing shirk. 

Commandment to give one's relatives their due and likewise to

the poor and the travellers in need. 

5 Mischief in the land is the result of Man's own misdeeds, that

is how Allah lets them taste the fruit of their deeds. 

Allah sent His Rasools for the guidance of people; some

believed while others rejected. Allah subjected the guilty

to His retribution and helped the Believers. Allah said:

"O Prophet, you cannot make the dead to hear you." 

6 It is Allah Who has created you and shall bring you to justice

on the Day of Judgment.
