ال خوف عليهم وال هم يحزنونNo Fear Upon Them Nor Do They Grieve

1 رجب 14378.4.16Day 9

There are three places in the Qura'an in which Allah negates fear and grief from His slaves.

ء يومئذ بعضهم لبعض عدو إال املتقني األخالOn the Day of Judgement, everyone will flee from each other. Very close friends of dunya will be like enemies, except those with taqwa.

Friendship requires taqwa to purify it. It is easy to make friends for dunya, for some worldly benefits, or even to fulfill your desires. The fiend who is a muttaqi will fight his desires, and make the friendship purely for the sake of Allah.

When you claim you are doing some thing for Allah, you will be tested for your sincerity. You will find something that you dislike in that relationship, to see whether you are actually doing it for the sake of Allah, or to follow your own desires. Allah wants to purify your intentions, so something will happen which is against your desires, something you will hate. If you are doing it for the sake of Allah, then you will not care, and carry on.

In all the chaos of the Day of Judgement, these friends will remain by your side. For this everlasting friendship, you must fight your own desires, overlook the faults of your friend, have easy communication with him.

يا عباد ال خوف عليكم اليوم وال أنتم تحزنونAllah makes this announcement, that on the Day of

Judgement, such a distressful day, those who love for the sake of Allah, will have no fear or sorrow.

To have righteous friends is very important. The one who has taqwa will praise what you serve him, thank Allah, and make dua' for you.

اعة أن تأتيهم بغتة وهم ال يشعرون هل ينظرون إال السAre they waiting except for the Hour to come upon

them suddenly while they perceive not?ء يومئذ بعضهم لبعض عدو إال املتقني األخال

Close friends, that Day, will be enemies to each other, except for the righteous

يا عباد ال خوف عليكم اليوم وال أنتم تحزنون[To whom Allah will say], "O My servants, no fear will there be concerning you this Day, nor will you

grieve,الذين آمنوا بآياتنا وكانوا مسلمني

[You] who believed in Our verses and were Muslims.

ادخلوا الجنة أنتم وأزواجكم تحبرونEnter Paradise, you and your kinds, delighted."

يطاف عليهم بصحاف من ذهب وأكواب وفيها ما تشتهيهاألنفس وتلذ األعني وأنتم فيها خالدون

Circulated among them will be plates and vessels of gold. And therein is whatever the souls desire and [what] delights the eyes, and you will abide

therein eternally.وتلك الجنة التي أورثتموها بما كنتم تعملون

And that is Paradise which you are made to inherit for what you used to do.

لكم فيها فاكهة كثيرة منها تأكلونFor you therein is much fruit from which you will

eatسورة الزخرف

43:66-73

The Messenger of Allah صلى اهلل عليه و سلم said :ال تصاحب إال مؤمنا وال يأكل طعامك إال تقي.

جامع الترمذي‘ حديث # 2395 Do not accompany except a believer,

and do not serve your food except to one with Taqwa.

It is such an honour to be addressed by Allah in this way, don't be afraid of any stage of the Day of Judgement, don't give the past, you are in security and happiness.

الذين آمنوا بآياتنا وكانوامسلمني

Their characteristics are mentioned by Allah; they believed in all the signs of Allah, and submitted to Him. Everything in front of them is a sign of Allah for them, and they believe in all the signs. They submit to Allah in every situation in life.

They will be on a platform of light on the Day of Judgement, shaded under the

Throne of Allah, envied by everyone. You must believe in Allah in every decree, and every sign, and submit to Him. Make that your

focus, in all matters.

They are between the apparent and the hidden deeds.

When you believe and submit to Allah, you get taqwa automatically.

The main theme of the Surah Az-Zukhruf is ↙التحذير اإلنخضاع املادية

Beware of the material adornments of dunya

Don't be deceived by the glitter of the dunya. Material trappings look attractive from the outside. Friends can even come under the category of adornments. Don't look only at the outer adornment, focus on the taqwa.

The word زخرف also refers to outer embellishments, like a hollow friendship, not deep or real.

The Messenger of Allah صلى اهلل عليه و سلم said :

قال اهلل عز وجل : املتحابون في جاللي، لهممنابر من نور يغبطهم النبيون والشهداء.

رواه الترمذي ' رياض الصالحني ‘ كتاب # 1‘ حديث # 381

Allah, the Exalted, has said: For those who love one another for the sake of My Glory, there will be seats of light (on the Day of Resurrection), and they will be envied by the Prophets and martyrs.

The Messenger of Allah صلى اهلل عليه و سلم said :

إن اهلل تعالى يقول يوم القيامة أين املتحابونبجاللي؟ اليوم أظلهم في ظلي يوم ال ظل إال ظلي.رواه مسلم ‘ رياض الصالحني‘ كتاب # 1‘ حديث # 377

On the Day of Resurrection, Allah, the Exalted, will say: Where are those who have mutual love for the sake of My Glory? Today I shall shelter them in My Shade when there

will be no shade except Mine

The Messenger of Allah صلى اهلل عليه و : said سلم

إن اهلل إذا أحب عظم الجزاء مع عظم البالء و قوما ابتالهم فمن رضي فله الرضا ومن

خط. سخط فله السسنن ابن ماجة ‘ حديث # 4031

The greatest reward comes with the greatest trial. When Allah loves a people He tests them. Whoever

accepts that wins His pleasure but whoever is discontent with that earns

His wrath.

Allah tells us the virtues of the martyrs, and what Allah honored them with. Anyone who dies in battle is not dead. They are alive. The words عند .show their high position ربهمWhen Allah says يرزقون, it shows that they are being provided with all kinds of provision.

They are happy for the favours of Allah, which they get as soon as they die. People see them as dead, but they are actually alive, with Allah.

They are rejoicing about the martyrs who will come after them, will follow them, and will get the same favours. This is for those who die in battle against the disbelievers, for the sake of Allah. There are many rules regarding the jihad. Those who blow themselves up, killing innocents, are not martyrs.

The people of the A'araf, in the middle of the Jannah and the hellfire, those whose good and bad deeds will be equal. They will await their fate. They will make salaam to those who have already entered Jannah, hoping to also enter. So Allah gives them the glad tidings of entrance to jannah. This is a great honour. Their deeds were not enough to result in this great reward, so out of the mercy of Allah, He takes them to Jannah.

Entering Jannah will remove all fear and grief. The mercy of Allah is so vast, they wanted to enter Jannah, and Allah made it a reality for them.

الذين قتلوا في سبيل اهلل أمواتا بل أحياء عند ربهم يرزقون وال تحسنبAnd never think of those who have been killed in the cause of Allah as dead.

Rather, they are alive with their Lord, receiving provision, فرحني بما آتاهم اهلل من فضله ويستبشرون بالذين لم يلحقوا بهم من خلفهم أال

خوف عليهم وال هم يحزنونRejoicing in what Allah has bestowed upon them of His bounty, and they

receive good tidings about those [to be martyred] after them who have not yet joined them - that there will be no fear concerning them, nor will they

grieve.يستبشرون بنعمة من اهلل وفضل وأن اهلل ال يضيع أجر املؤمنني

They receive good tidings of favor from Allah and bounty and [of the fact] that Allah does not allow the reward of believers to be lost

سورة آل عمران3:169:171

وبينهما حجاب وعلى األعراف رجال يعرفون كال بسيماهم ونادواأصحاب الجنة أن سالم عليكم لم يدخلوها وهم يطمعون

And between them will be a partition, and on [its] elevations are men who recognize all by their mark. And they call out to the

companions of Paradise, "Peace be upon you." They have not [yet] entered it, but they long intensely.

وإذا صرفت أبصارهم تلقاء أصحاب النار قالوا ربنا ال تجعلنا معالقوم الظاملني

And when their eyes are turned toward the companions of the Fire, they say, "Our Lord, do not place us with the wrongdoing

people." ونادى أصحاب األعراف رجاال يعرفونهم بسيماهم قالوا ما أغنى عنكم

جمعكم وما كنتم تستكبرونAnd the companions of the Elevations will call to men [within Hell]

whom they recognize by their mark, saying, "Of no avail to you was your gathering and [the fact] that you were arrogant."

أهؤالء الذين أقسمتم ال ينالهم اهلل برحمة ادخلوا الجنة ال خوف عليكموال أنتم تحزنون

[ Allah will say], "Are these the ones whom you [inhabitants of Hell] swore that Allah would never offer them mercy? Enter Paradise, [O People of the Elevations]. No fear will there be

concerning you, nor will you grieve."سورة األعراف

7:46-49
