سورة الزلزلة

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم إِذَا زُلْزِلَتِ الْأَرْضُ زِلْزَالَهَا When the earth is shaken with its (final ) earthquake. وَأَخْرَجَتِ الْأَرْضُ أَثْقَالَهَا And when the earth throws out its burdens وَقَالَ الْإِنسَانُ مَا لَهَا And man will say "What is the matter with it?” يَوْمَئِذٍ تُحَدِّثُ أَخْبَارَهَا That day it will declare its information about all that happened over it (of good or of evil).

بِأَنَّ رَبَّكَ أَوْحَى لَهَا Because your Lord has inspired it. يَوْمَئِذٍ يَصْدُرُ النَّاسُ أَشْتَاتًا لِّيُرَوْا أَعْمَالَهُمْ That day mankind will proceed in scattered groups that it may be shown its deeds. فَمَن يَعْمَلْ مِثْقَالَ ذَرَّةٍ خَيْرًا يَرَهُ So whoever does good equal to the weight of an atom (or a small ant) shall see it وَمَن يَعْمَلْ مِثْقَالَ ذَرَّةٍ شَرًّا يَرَهُ And whoever does evil equal to the weight of an atom (or a small ant) shall see it.

Faith Knowledge

Faith is to believe in…. Allah (swt) His angels His books His messengers The Last Day Devine pre-ordainment

This includes believing in…. The trial of the grave Reward and punishment in the grave Resurrection The gathering of mankind for accountability The Judgement The scale of deeds The Hawdh The path The intercession Paradise Hell All that Allah (swt) prepared in these two abodes for their dwellers

What happens when we die

Punishment in the grave

Blessings in the grave

What about the ones who are not buried?

Eaten up in his grave

Cremated

Drowned

The Prophet (pbuh) passed two graves and said, “Indeed they are being punished and they are not being punished for something that is great.” (Bukhari)

Then He said, “Indeed. As for one of them, he would spread tales in order to sow conflict among people and as for the other, he would not protect himself from urine.”

Surah Az Zalzalah

The Prophet (pbuh) said, “This surah is equivalent to one-fourth of the Qur-an” An Nasai

The Name of this Surah

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم Ayah 1: إِذَا زُلْزِلَتِ الْأَرْضُ زِلْزَالَهَا When the earth is shaken with it’s (final ) earthquake

Calamities of this world

Ayah 2 : وَأَخْرَجَتِ الْأَرْضُ أَثْقَالَهَا And when the earth throws out its burdens

…the second blowing of the trumpet

.

.

Ayah 3: وَقَالَ الْإِنسَانُ مَا لَهَا And man will say, "What is the matter with it?”

يَوْمَئِذٍ تُحَدِّثُ أَخْبَارَهَا That day it will declare it’s information about all that happened over it of good or of evil. Ayah 4 : يَوْمَئِذٍ تُحَدِّثُ أَخْبَارَهَا

“Do you know what it’s information is ?”

Ayah 5 : بِأَنَّ رَبَّكَ أَوْحى لَهَا Because your Lord has inspired it.

Is the Earth really going to talk?

Ayah 6: يَوْمَئِذٍ يَصْدُرُ النَّاسُ أَشْتَاتًا لِّيُرَوْا أَعْمَالَهُمْ That day mankind will proceed in divided groups that they may be shown their deeds.

Divided groups Group One: A happy group that will be told to enter Paradise. Group Two: A miserable group that will be sent to the Hellfire. There will not be any third group

The scale of the Hereafter is real.

Ayah 7 فَمَن يَعْمَلْ مِثْقَالَ ذَرَّةٍ خَيْرًا يَرَهُ So whoever does good equal to the weight of an atom (or a small ant), shall see it

And whoever does evil equal to the weight of an atom (or a small ant), shall see it. Ayah 8: وَمَن يَعْمَلْ مِثْقَالَ ذَرَّةٍ شَرًّا يَرَهُ

Two words are heavy on the scale and light on the tongue.

How Perfect Allah is and with His Praise. How perfect Allah is, The Magnificent Bukhari Subhaan Allaahi Wa bihamdihee Subhaan Allaahil ‘Adheem

“ O ‘Ayeshah, stay away from those sins that are belittled, for indeed they will be taken account of by Allah.” Interpretation of Hadith

As-Siraat

There is not one of you but will pass over it (Hell); this is with your Lord, a decree which must be accomplished. Then We shall save those who used to fear Allah and were dutiful to Him. And We shall leave the wrongdoers therein (humbled) to their knees (in Hell). Interpretation of hadith

“And the siraat is placed over the Hellfire. I and my nation will be the first to cross it.” Muslim

The nation of Mohammed (saw) will drink water from a huge basin called the Hawdh.

“I am at the Hawdh waiting for whoever from you comes to me (to drink);by Allah some men will be blocked from coming to me, and I will say, “My Lord, they are from me and from my nation.”

It will be said, “Indeed, you do not know what they did after you; they continued to go back on their heels.”

Intercession

Our grandparents sometimes do that !

Two conditions must be fulfilled for intercession to occur on the Day of Judgement with Allah (swt)

1.Allah (swt) gives permission to the intercessor to intercede.

2. Allah (swt) is pleased with the one who is being interceded for.

“And they cannot intercede except for him with whom He is pleased.” Surah Al-Ambiyaa 21: Verse

Allah knows best
