I think Arabic characters are not appearing in my posts as I have to send through email and the Arabic doesn’t show up for some reason :( So I hope I can continue with the tafseer of Surah Yusuf without needing the Arabic verses. I could I guess but it won’t be as effective.
Anyway here [...]

Surah Yusuf is the 12th Surah in the Qur’an, with 111 verses, and it was revealed to the Prophet (sallAllahu alayhi wasallam) in the 10th year of his Prophethood, while he was still in Makkah, being persecuted by the Kuffar. That year was a particularly difficult year for him, as two of his biggest supporters [...]

Surah Yusuf touched me in a way it has never done before. The imam recited it in taraweeh last night and I felt it. Then I came home and read it on my own and I really felt it. Especially the end of the story where Yusuf (alayhi salaam) is reunited with his parents. I [...]

Some verses to ponder upon. I never actually understood them completely until I read this tafseer, alhamdulillah.
Surah Saud
Chapter 38: Verses 21-24
“Have you heard the story of the litigants who surmounted the walls of the sanctuary? When they went in to David, he was alarmed. They said: ‘Have no fear. We are but two litigants: one [...]

Bismillah
I was reading the tafseer of a beautiful surah this morning…it is one of my favorite from the last juz. The comparison between the blessed and the damned on the Day of Judgement is highlighted in it.
فَأَمَّا مَنۡ أُوتِىَ كِتَـٰبَهُ ۥ بِيَمِينِهِۦ (٧) فَسَوۡفَ يُحَاسَبُ حِسَابً۬ا يَسِيرً۬ا (٨) وَيَنقَلِبُ إِلَىٰٓ أَهۡلِهِۦ مَسۡرُورً۬ا (٩) وَأَمَّا مَنۡ [...]

I thought I’d write down some tafseer I was reading a few days ago from my notes, I do remember that it didn’t particularly affect me when I was studying it but this time around, it did. That is the beauty of the Qur’an, isn’t it…you learn something new everytime.
So the ayahs I read were [...]
