A fair reward

Chapter Kahf (The Cave) – 18

‘A-‘uu-zu  Billaahi minash-Shay-taanir- Rajiim.
(I seek refuge in God from Satan the outcast)

Bis-Millaahir-Rah-maanir-Rahiim.
(In the name of God, the Beneficent, the Merciful)

 ٱلْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ ٱلَّذِىٓ أَنزَلَ عَلَىٰ عَبْدِهِ ٱلْكِتَٰبَ وَلَمْ يَجْعَل لَّهُۥ عِوَجَا 1

 قَيِّمًا لِّيُنذِرَ بَأْسًا شَدِيدًا مِّن لَّدُنْهُ وَيُبَشِّرَ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ ٱلَّذِينَ يَعْمَلُونَٱلصَّٰلِحَٰتِ أَنَّ لَهُمْ أَجْرًا حَسَنًا 2

 

1.  Praise be to Allah Who hath revealed the Scripture unto His slave, and hath not placed therein any crookedness.

 

2.  (But hath made it) straight, to give warning of stern punishment from Him, and to bring unto the Believers who do good works the news that theirs will be a fair reward-

1.  ‘Al-Hamdu  Lillaahil-laziii  ‘anzala  ‘alaa  ‘AbdiHil-Kitaaba  wa  lam  yaj-‘al-lahuu  ‘iwajaa.

 

2.  Qayyi-mal-li-yunzira  Ba’-san-  shadiidam-  milladunHu  wa  yubash-shiral-  Mu’-minii-nallaziina  ya’-maluunas-saalihaati  ‘anna  lahum  ‘Ajran  hasanaa.

 

Commentary

 

Who informed the mankind? Who has been holding up his life? By Whose support he has been drawing in the breath which is constant? Holy Qur’an guides: O ignorant! Your Creator and Sustainer is Allah Almighty. So you should admit it that how much virtues exist; all are for Him only. He is Who appointed His chosen Slave Muhammad as His last Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) and sent down unto Him This Blessed Book; named Holy Qur’an. No crookedness or confusion has been placed in it. Every human being can get guidance from it according to personal sense and understanding. It establishes the Straight Path for the mankind and shows him clearly the Signs and Portents of that Path in the Light of God’s Commandments. It acquaints the human beings with those severe calamities and misfortunes which will surround the disobedient servants of Allah Almighty, and it brings good news for those who believe and do good works that a fair reward of their Belief and righteousness will be for them. It is biggest negligence of the human being that he does neither try to know Allah Almighty Who is his Real Beneficent and nor follows His Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) by considering and admitting that He is True and Right.
