qur'an

Explanation of Surah Ahqaf

“Our people, respond to the one who calls you to Allah. Believe in Him: He will forgive you your sins and protect you from a painful torment”
[Al Ahqaaf: 31]

Al Ahqaaf is the 46th chapter of the Qur’an, a Makkan surah revealed around the 10th year of Prophethood, during the Prophet’s (peace be upon him) return from his infamous journey to Ta’if, where he was rejected and abused by the people. It is in the context of the ‘year of sorrow’ where he (upon him be peace) was going through great personal difficulty that this surah was revealed by Allah, as a reassurance to him and the believers, and a warning to those who reject the message.

Adam & Eve In The Quran

Author: 
Imaani Aslam

Does the Quran also tell the story of Adam and Eve?

Yes it does, although a different version to the one that appears in the Bible today. The story of Adam (pbuh) and Eve is known the world over and is used by some to explain how mankind’s existence began on earth. In fact, Christianity, Islam and Judaism all teach that Adam (pbuh) and Eve were the first humans created by God and that all humans have descended from them. Adam (pbuh) is also a prophet in Islam.

So Muslims believe that every human being in the world today is related to Adam?

The story of Al Baqarah

The name of the surah Al Baqarah is taken from an incidence that happened at the time of Prophet Musa (as) and is retold in the quran, [qs:2:67-71] and summarised in this hadith that is also a part of the forty hadith collected by Imam Nawawi:

On the authority of Abu Hurairah, who said : I heared the messenger of Allah say : "What I have forbidden to you, avoid; what I have ordered you [to do], do as much of it as you can. It was only their excessive questioning and their disagreeing with their prophets that destroyed those who were before you." Related bu Bukhari and Muslim

This is only apart of the story, and has been expanded on in the commentary of the qur'an done by the famous muslim scholar Ibn Kathir:

A recording of The Revival's "Let's Talk Show" from 14 September 2008 where Shaykh Ibrahim Ossi Effa is bombarded with questions about Islam mainly on topics where there are misconceptions held either within the Muslim community or by Non Muslims.

Questions were asked and answered on many topics mainly focussing on:

  1. The Qur'an
  2. The Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wa Sallam (Peace and Blessings be upon him)
  3. Violence and terrorism
  4. Women's rights

A few other questions were sprinkled in for good measure.
