Ayat of the Day

**O2K** · 07-20-2009

Assalaam Alaikum!

On the RoadtoJannah message board I typically post a Hadith of the Day and the Ayat of the Day. I see that there is already a Hadith of the Day thread here so inshAllah I intend to contribute to that. However, when doing a few searches on this board I could not find an Ayat of the Day thread, so I decided to make one. If there is one already please merge this and point me in the right direction inshAllah. Also if everyone could contribute that would be wonderful. Discussion, Ayats, anything inshAllah.

JazakhAllah Khair.

Transliteration
16. Waman yuwallihim yawma-ithin duburahu illa mutaharrifan liqitalin aw mutahayyizan ila fi-atin faqad baa bighadabin mina Allahi wama/wahu jahannamu wabi/sa almaseeru

Translation

16. And whoever turns his back to them on such a day - unless it be a stratagem of war, or to retreat to a troop (of his own), - he indeed has drawn upon himself wrath from Allâh. And his abode is Hell, and worst indeed is that destination!

And when distress afflicts a man he calls upon his Lord turning to Him frequently; then when He makes him possess a favor from Him, he forgets that for which he called upon Him before, and sets up rivals to Allah that he may cause (men) to stray off from His path. Say: Enjoy yourself in your ungratefulness a little, surely you are of the inmates of the fire.

May Allah swa save us from being ungrateful! Ameen!

Surah Maryam, Verse 9:
قَالَ كَذَٰلِكَ قَالَ رَبُّكَ هُوَ عَلَيَّ هَيِّنٌ وَقَدْ خَلَقْتُكَ مِن قَبْلُ وَلَمْ تَكُ شَيْئًا

He said: So shall it be, your Lord says: It is easy to Me, and indeed I created you before, when you were nothing.

Surah: 73 Aya: 6

Transliteration
6. Inna nashi-ata allayli hiya ashaddu wat-an waaqwamu qeelan

Translation

6. Verily, the rising by night is very hard and most potent and good for governing (the soul), and most suitable for the Word (of Allâh).

Good reminder!

The act we find ourselves in or the thoughts our mind is occupied in during the night says a lot about the individual's state of emaan i think.

**BeTheChange** · 04-03-2015

If you was to buy a book with english translation of the Quraan which one would you buy please?

Reading the ayats are so powerful reminders and i find the words very wise to act upon. Any recommendations anyone?

And if Allah should hasten the evil to men as they desire the hastening on of good, their doom should certainly have been decreed for them; but We leave those alone who hope not for Our meeting in their inordinacy, blindly wandering on.

Allah Almighty said in surah Al-Anbiyaa verse 30:

Do not the Unbelievers see that the heavens and the earth were joined together (as one unit of creation), before we clove them asunder? We made from water every living thing. Will they not then believe?

This ayah is a proof of the miraculous status of the Holy Quraan in the field of science. This verse is a challenge to the most modern scientists!

The scientists have made a theory about the creation of the universe called the Big Bang theory. This ayah 30 of surah Al- Anbiyaa was reaveled more than 1400 years ago but it is telling us about the creation of the universe, a statement now given in the Big Bang theory. Also it is telling us that Allah has made every living thing from water which is also a discovery of the modern science. The unbelievers referred to in the above verse also includes the kafir scientists of the present era because it is they who have made the theory and it is they who think that the universe was like a ball which exploded and broke into pieces, the pieces changed into moon, sun stars, planets etc.

Now if some Muslims show this verse to those scientists, it is expected that they will become Muslims seeing that Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم couldn't make such statement from his mind. So it is a manifest proof that Quraan is a Heavenly Book.

Surah Al-Anaam, Verse 25:
وَمِنْهُم مَّن يَسْتَمِعُ إِلَيْكَ وَجَعَلْنَا عَلَىٰ قُلُوبِهِمْ أَكِنَّةً أَن يَفْقَهُوهُ وَفِي آذَانِهِمْ وَقْرًا وَإِن يَرَوْا كُلَّ آيَةٍ لَّا يُؤْمِنُوا بِهَا حَتَّىٰ إِذَا جَاءُوكَ يُجَادِلُونَكَ يَقُولُ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا إِنْ هَٰذَا إِلَّا أَسَاطِيرُ الْأَوَّلِينَ

And of them is he who hearkens to you, and We have cast veils over their hearts lest they understand it and a heaviness into their ears; and even if they see every sign they will not believe in it; so much so that when they come to you they only dispute with you; those who disbelieve say: This is naught but the stories of the ancients.
