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.'" (V.43:77)
Narrated Ya`la:
I heard the Prophet (ﷺ) reciting when on the pulpit: 'They will cry, "O Malik (Keeper of Hell) Let your
Lord make an end of us.' (43.77)
حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجُ بْنُ مِنْهَالٍ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ عَنْ عَمْرٍو عَنْ عَطَاءٍ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ يَعْلَى عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَقْرَأُ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ [ 43 77 77]وَنَادَوْا يَا مَالِكُ لِيَقْضِ عَلَيْنَا رَبُّكَ وَقَالَ قَتَادَةُ مَثَلاً لِلآخِرِينَ عِظَةً لِمَنْ بَعْدَهُمْ وَقَالَ غَيْرُهُ مُقْرِنِينَ ضَابِطِينَ يُقَالُ فُلاَنٌ مُقْرِنٌ لِفُلاَنٍ ضَابِطٌ لَهُ وَالأَكْوَابُ الأَبَارِيقُ الَّتِي لاَ خَرَاطِيمَ لَهَا وَقَالَ قَتَادَةُ [ 43 4 4]في أُمِّ الْكِتَابِ جُمْلَةِ الْكِتَابِ أَصْلِ الْكِتَابِ [ 43 81 81]أَوَّلُ الْعَابِدِينَ أَىْ مَا كَانَ فَأَنَا أَوَّلُ الأَنِفِينَ وَهُمَا لُغَتَانِ رَجُلٌ عَابِدٌ وَعَبِدٌ وَقَرَأَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ [ 25 30 30]وَقَالَ الرَّسُولُ يَا رَبِّ وَيُقَالُ أَوَّلُ الْعَابِدِينَ الْجَاحِدِينَ مِنْ عَبِدَ يَعْبَدُ
The Statement of Allah the Most High: "Then wait you for the Day when the sky will bring forth a visible smoke." (V.44:10)
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)'.
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدَانُ عَنْ أَبِي حَمْزَةَ عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ عَنْ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ مَضَى خَمْسٌ الدُّخَانُ وَالرُّومُ وَالْقَمَرُ وَالْبَطْشَةُ وَاللِّزَامُ
"Covering the people, this is a painful torment." (V.44:11)
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 (Prophet) 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. So Allah
revealed:--
'Then watch you for the Day that the sky will bring forth a kind of smoke plainly visible, covering the
people; this is a painfull of torment.' (44.10-11)
Then someone (Abu Sufyan) came to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) and said, "O Allah's Messenger! Invoke Allah to
send rain for the tribes of Mudar for they are on the verge of destruction." On that the Prophet (ﷺ) said
(astonishingly) "Shall I invoke Allah) for the tribes of Mudar? Verily, you are a brave man!" But the
Prophet 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. We will indeed (then) exact retribution.'
(44.16) The narrator said, "That was the day of the Battle of Badr."
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ عَنْ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ قَالَ قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ إِنَّمَا كَانَ هَذَا لأَنَّ قُرَيْشًا لَمَّا اسْتَعْصَوْا عَلَى النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم دَعَا عَلَيْهِمْ بِسِنِينَ كَسِنِي يُوسُفَ فَأَصَابَهُمْ قَحْطٌ وَجَهْدٌ حَتَّى أَكَلُوا الْعِظَامَ فَجَعَلَ الرَّجُلُ يَنْظُرُ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ فَيَرَى مَا بَيْنَهُ وَبَيْنَهَا كَهَيْئَةِ الدُّخَانِ مِنَ الْجَهْدِ فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى [ 44 10 11]فَارْتَقِبْ يَوْمَ تَأْتِي السَّمَاءُ بِدُخَانٍ مُبِينٍ يَغْشَى النَّاسَ هَذَا عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ قَالَ فَأُتِيَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَقِيلَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ اسْتَسْقِ اللَّهَ لِمُضَرَ فَإِنَّهَا قَدْ هَلَكَتْ قَالَ لِمُضَرَ إِنَّكَ لَجَرِيءٌ فَاسْتَسْقَى فَسُقُوا فَنَزَلَتْ [ 44 15 15]إِنَّكُمْ عَائِدُونَ فَلَمَّا أَصَابَتْهُمُ الرَّفَاهِيَةُ عَادُوا إِلَى حَالِهِمْ حِينَ أَصَابَتْهُمُ الرَّفَاهِيَةُ فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ [ 44 16 16]يَوْمَ نَبْطِشُ الْبَطْشَةَ الْكُبْرَى إِنَّا مُنْتَقِمُونَ قَالَ يَعْنِي يَوْمَ بَدْرٍ
The Statement of Allah the Most High: "(They will say) Our Lord! Remove the torment from us, really we shall become believers!" (V.44:12)
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 (a person who pretends
things which do not exist)' (38.86) When the Quraish troubled and stood against the Prophet (ﷺ) 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 a year of famine during which they ate bones and dead animals
because of too much suffering, and 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) And then it was said to the Prophet (by Allah), "If we remove it from them. they
will revert to their ways (of heathenism)." So the Prophet (ﷺ) invoked his Lord, who removed the
punishment from them, but later they reverted (to heathenism), whereupon Allah punished them on
the day of the Battle of Badr, and that is what Allah's Statement indicates:
'Then watch for the day that the sky will bring forth a kind of smoke plainly visible...we will indeed
(then) exact retribution.' (44.10).
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ عَنْ أَبِي الضُّحَى عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ قَالَ دَخَلْتُ عَلَى عَبْدِ اللَّهِ فَقَالَ إِنَّ مِنَ الْعِلْمِ أَنْ تَقُولَ لِمَا لاَ تَعْلَمُ اللَّهُ أَعْلَمُ إِنَّ اللَّهَ قَالَ لِنَبِيِّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم [ 38 86 86]قُلْ مَا أَسْأَلُكُمْ عَلَيْهِ مِنْ أَجْرٍ وَمَا أَنَا مِنَ الْمُتَكَلِّفِينَ إِنَّ قُرَيْشًا لَمَّا غَلَبُوا النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَاسْتَعْصَوْا عَلَيْهِ قَالَ اللَّهُمَّ أَعِنِّي عَلَيْهِمْ بِسَبْعٍ كَسَبْعِ يُوسُفَ فَأَخَذَتْهُمْ سَنَةٌ أَكَلُوا فِيهَا الْعِظَامَ وَالْمَيْتَةَ مِنْ الْجَهْدِ حَتَّى جَعَلَ أَحَدُهُمْ يَرَى مَا بَيْنَهُ وَبَيْنَ السَّمَاءِ كَهَيْئَةِ الدُّخَانِ مِنْ الْجُوعِ قَالُوا [ 44 12 12]رَبَّنَا اكْشِفْ عَنَّا الْعَذَابَ إِنَّا مُؤْمِنُونَ فَقِيلَ لَهُ إِنْ كَشَفْنَا عَنْهُمْ عَادُوا فَدَعَا رَبَّهُ فَكَشَفَ عَنْهُمْ فَعَادُوا فَانْتَقَمَ اللَّهُ مِنْهُمْ يَوْمَ بَدْرٍ فَذَلِكَ قَوْلُهُ تَعَالَى [ 44 10 10]فَارْتَقِبْ يَوْمَ تَأْتِي السَّمَاءُ بِدُخَانٍ مُبِينٍ إِلَى قَوْلِهِ جَلَّ ذِكْرُهُ [ 44 16 16]إِنَّا مُنْتَقِمُونَ
"How can there be for them an admonition (at the time when the torment has reached them), when a Messenger explaining things clearly, has already come to them?" (V.44:13)
Narrated Masruq:
I came upon `Abdullah and he said, "When Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) invited Quraish (to Islam), they
disbelieved him and stood against him. So he (the Prophet) said, "O Allah! Help me against them by
afflicting them with seven years of famine similar to the seven years of Joseph.' So they were stricken
with a year of drought that destroyed everything, and they started eating dead animals, and if one of
them got up he would see something like smoke between him and the sky from the severe fatigue and
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... (till he reached) ........ We shall indeed remove the punishment for a
while, but truly you will revert (to heathenism): (44.10-15) `Abdullah added: "Will the punishment be
removed from them on the Day of Resurrection?" He added," The severe grasp" was the Day of the
Battle of Badr."
حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرُ بْنُ حَازِمٍ عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ عَنْ أَبِي الضُّحَى عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ قَالَ دَخَلْتُ عَلَى عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم لَمَّا دَعَا قُرَيْشًا كَذَّبُوهُ وَاسْتَعْصَوْا عَلَيْهِ فَقَالَ اللَّهُمَّ أَعِنِّي عَلَيْهِمْ بِسَبْعٍ كَسَبْعِ يُوسُفَ فَأَصَابَتْهُمْ سَنَةٌ حَصَّتْ ـ يَعْنِي ـ كُلَّ شَىْءٍ حَتَّى كَانُوا يَأْكُلُونَ الْمَيْتَةَ فَكَانَ يَقُومُ أَحَدُهُمْ فَكَانَ يَرَى بَيْنَهُ وَبَيْنَ السَّمَاءِ مِثْلَ الدُّخَانِ مِنَ الْجَهْدِ وَالْجُوعِ ثُمَّ قَرَأَ [ 44 10 15]فَارْتَقِبْ يَوْمَ تَأْتِي السَّمَاءُ بِدُخَانٍ مُبِينٍ يَغْشَى النَّاسَ هَذَا عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ حَتَّى بَلَغَ [ 44 15 15]إِنَّا كَاشِفُو الْعَذَابِ قَلِيلاً إِنَّكُمْ عَائِدُونَ قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ أَفَيُكْشَفُ عَنْهُمُ الْعَذَابُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ قَالَ وَالْبَطْشَةُ الْكُبْرَى يَوْمَ بَدْرٍ
"Then they had turned away from him (Messenger Muḥammad ﷺ) and said: (He is) taught (by a human being), a madman!" (V.44:14)
Narrated `Abdullah:
Allah sent (the Prophet) Muhammad and said:--
'Say, No wage do I ask of you for this (Qur'an) nor am I one of the pretenders (i.e. a person who
pretends things which do not exist). (38.68) When Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) saw Quraish standing against him,
he said, "O Allah! Help me against them by afflicting them with seven years of famine similar to the
seven years (of famine) of Joseph. So they were afflicted with a year of drought that destroyed
everything, and they ate bones and hides. (One of them said), "And they ate hides and dead animals,
and (it seemed to them that) something like smoke was coming out of the earth. So Abu Sufyan came
to the Prophet (ﷺ) and said, "O Muhammad! Your people are on the verge of destruction! Please invoke
Allah to relieve them." So the Prophet (ﷺ) invoked Allah for them (and the famine disappeared). He said
to them. "You will revert (to heathenism) after that." `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 (to disbelief).' He added, "Will the punishment be removed from them in the
Hereafter? The smoke and the grasp and the Al-Lizam have all passed." One of the sub-narrater said,
"The splitting of the moon." And another said, "The defeat of the Romans (has passed).

"On the Day when We shall seize you with the greatest seizure (punishment). Verily, We will exact retribution." (V.44:16)
Narrated `Abdullah:
Five things have passed: Al-Lizam, the defeat of the Romans, the mighty grasp, the splitting of the
moon, and the smoke.

Surat al-Jathiyah (The Kneeling)
Narrated Abu Huraira:
Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "Allah said, 'The son of Adam hurts me for he abuses Time though I am Time: in
My Hands are all things, and I cause the revolution of day and night.'
حَدَّثَنَا الْحُمَيْدِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ حَدَّثَنَا الزُّهْرِيُّ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيَّبِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ يُؤْذِينِي ابْنُ آدَمَ يَسُبُّ الدَّهْرَ وَأَنَا الدَّهْرُ بِيَدِي الأَمْرُ أُقَلِّبُ اللَّيْلَ وَالنَّهَارَ
"But he who says to his parents: Fie upon you both! Do you hold out the promise to me that I shall be raised up (again)... (up to) ... the tales of the ancient." (V.46:17)
Narrated Yusuf bin Mahak:
Marwan had been appointed as the governor of Hijaz by Muawiya. He delivered a sermon and
mentioned Yazid bin Muawiya so that the people might take the oath of allegiance to him as the
successor of his father (Muawiya). Then `Abdur Rahman bin Abu Bakr told him something
whereupon Marwan ordered that he be arrested. But `Abdur-Rahman entered `Aisha's house and they
could not arrest him. Marwan said, "It is he (`AbdurRahman) about whom Allah revealed this Verse:--
'And the one who says to his parents: 'Fie on you! Do you hold out the promise to me..?'"
On that, `Aisha said from behind a screen, "Allah did not reveal anything from the Qur'an about us
except what was connected with the declaration of my innocence (of the slander).

The Statement of Allah the Most High: "Then, when they saw it as a dense cloud coming towards their valleys..." (V.46:24)
Narrated `Aisha:
(the wife of the Prophet), I never saw Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) laughing loudly enough to enable me to see his
uvula, but he used to smile only. And whenever he saw clouds or winds, signs of deep concern would
appear on his face. I said, "O Allah's Messenger! 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.' "

Narrated Abu Huraira:
The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Allah created His creation, and when He had finished it, the womb, got up and
caught hold of Allah whereupon Allah said, "What is the matter?' On that, it said, 'I seek refuge with
you from those who sever the ties of Kith and kin.' On that Allah said, 'Will you be satisfied if I
bestow My favors on him who keeps your ties, and withhold My favors from him who severs your
ties?' On that it said, 'Yes, O my Lord!' Then Allah said, 'That is for you.' " Abu Huraira added: If you
wish, you can recite: "Would you then if you were given the authority. do mischief in the land and
sever your ties of kinship. (47. 22)

Narrated Aslam:
While Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) was proceeding at night during one of his journeys and `Umar bin Al-Khattab
was traveling beside him, `Umar asked him about something but Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) did not reply. He
asked again, but he did not reply, and then he asked (for the third time) but he did not reply. On that,
`Umar bin Al-Khattab said to himself, "Thakilat Ummu `Umar (May `Umar's mother lose her son)! I
asked Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) three times but he did not reply." `Umar then said, "I made my camel run faster
and went ahead of the people, and I was afraid that some Qur'anic Verses might be revealed about me.
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 (ﷺ) and greeted
him.
He (Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) ) said, 'Tonight a Sura has been revealed to me, and it is dearer to me than that on
which the sun rises (i.e. the world)' Then he recited: "Verily, We have given you a manifest victory."
(48.1)

حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ يَحْيَى أَخْبَرَنَا حَيْوَةُ عَنْ أَبِي الأَسْوَدِ سَمِعَ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ـ رضى الله عنها ـ أَنَّ نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم كَانَ يَقُومُ مِنَ اللَّيْلِ حَتَّى تَتَفَطَّرَ قَدَمَاهُ فَقَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ لِمَ تَصْنَعُ هَذَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ وَقَدْ غَفَرَ اللَّهُ لَكَ مَا تَقَدَّمَ مِنْ ذَنْبِكَ وَمَا تَأَخَّرَ قَالَ أَفَلاَ أُحِبُّ أَنْ أَكُونَ عَبْدًا شَكُورًا فَلَمَّا كَثُرَ لَحْمُهُ صَلَّى جَالِسًا فَإِذَا أَرَادَ أَنْ يَرْكَعَ قَامَ فَقَرَأَ ثُمَّ رَكَعَ
"Verily, We have sent you (O Muḥammad pbuh) as a witness, as a bearer of glad tidings, and as a warner." (V.48:8)
Narrated `Abdullah bin `Amr bin Al-As:
This Verse:
'Verily We have sent you (O Muhammad) as a witness, as a bringer of glad tidings and as a warner.'
(48.8)
which is in the Qur'an, appears in the Torah thus: 'Verily We have sent you (O Muhammad) as a
witness, as a bringer of glad tidings and as a warner, and as a protector for the illiterates (i.e., the
Arabs.) You are my slave and My Apostle, and I have named you Al-Mutawakkil (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 till He guides
through you a crocked (curved) 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.'

"He it is Who sent down As-Sakīnah (tranquillity and calmness) into the hearts of the believers..." (V.48:4)
Narrated Al-Bara:
While a man from the companions of the Prophet (ﷺ) was reciting (Qur'an) and his horse was tied in the
house, the horse got startled and started jumping. The man came out, looked around but could not find
anything, yet the horse went on jumping. The next morning he mentioned that to the Prophet.
The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "That was the tranquility (calmness) which descended because of the recitation of
the Qur'an."
حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُوسَى عَنْ إِسْرَائِيلَ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ عَنِ الْبَرَاءِ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ قَالَ بَيْنَمَا رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَقْرَأُ وَفَرَسٌ لَهُ مَرْبُوطٌ فِي الدَّارِ فَجَعَلَ يَنْفِرُ فَخَرَجَ الرَّجُلُ فَنَظَرَ فَلَمْ يَرَ شَيْئًا وَجَعَلَ يَنْفِرُ فَلَمَّا أَصْبَحَ ذَكَرَ ذَلِكَ لِلنَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَقَالَ تِلْكَ السَّكِينَةُ تَنَزَّلَتْ بِالْقُرْآنِ
