4.05 PURITY OF FAITH (AL- IKHLAS)



Hundred-twelfth Surah


In The Name Of God, The Ever Graceful, The Most Gracious:

God Says

Say: “He is One God: (1)
“God the Eternal, the Uncaused Cause of all being. (2)
“He begets not, and neither is He begotten; (3)
“and there is nothing that could be compared with Him.” (4)


Prophet Said


1.   “ Qul Huwallahu Ahad…’ is equal to one third of the Qur’an-- H: Bukhari and Muslim.

2.   A man asked the Messenger of God: Which is the greatest surah of the Qur’an? He said: Qul Huwallahu Ahad -- Mu’ariful Hadees.

3. A man said: I have a special fondness for this surah.  The Prophet said:
This fondness of yours has taken you to paradise. -- H: Tirmizi and Ahmed.

4. To one, who recites in his bed (before sleep) surah ‘Qul Huwallahu Ahad’  one hundred times, God will say on the Resurrection Day: ‘Go, my servant, to Paradise on your right ’-- H: Tirmizi. N: Anas

Number 3 and 4 are not instead of but, naturally, in addition to obeying God and His Apostle during the day before sleep.

Hundred-second Surah

In The Name Of God, The Ever Graceful, The Most Gracious:

God says

You are obsessed by greed for more and more (1)
Until you go down to your graves. (2)
Nay, in time you will come to understand! (3)
And once again: Nay, in time you will come to understand! (4)
Nay, if you could but understand [it] with an understanding (born) of certainly, (5)
You would indeed, most surely, behold the blazing fire [of hell]! (6)
In the end you will indeed, most surely, behold it with the eye of certainly: (7)
And on that Day you will most surely be called to account for (what you did with) the boon of life! (8)

-- H: Hakim. N: Abdullah-b-Omer
