Quran Juz 17
JUZZ-17
This summary of the seventeenth Juz covers Surah Al Anbiya Ayah 1 to Surah Al Hajj Ayah 78.
Beginning of the Seventeenth Juz
馃崁 Surah Ambiya, which derives its name from the fact that it mentions a series of Ambiya Alayhimus Salam. The Surah also cautions people against being negligent about Qiyamah and the reckoning on that day.
馃搶 Allah mentions that the Qur'an contains every type of advice and explanation for mankind. Men therefore have a choice before them and should anticipate the consequences of their acts.
馃搶 None can ever save himself from Allah's punishment when it comes, and people will be foolish to pin their hopes in their fabricated gods. People will be called to account for every minute act- even an act the size of a mustard seed will be weighed in the scale of acts. Allah's judgement on the Day of Qiyamah will be final and binding.
馃搶 In the remaining verses of Surah Ambiya, Allah discusses the various Ambiya from Ibrahim Alayhis Salam to Isa Alayhis Salam. Thereafter, Allah says about Rasulullah Sallahu Alaihi Wassalam, "We have sent you as a mercy to the universe."(Ayah 107).
馃搶 The next verse declares Tawhid when Allah instructs Rasulullah Sallahu Alaihi Wassalam to "Say, 'It has been revealed to me that your deity is but One Deity. So will you submit to this?"
馃崁 Surah Hajj follows Surah Ambiya and opens with a reminder of Qiyamah. Allah says, "Oh people! Fear your Rabb. The earthquake of Qiyamah is a tremendous thing indeed. The day when you will witness it, every nursing mother will forget her suckling infant and every pregnant woman will abort (because of intense fear). And you will see people in a drunken stupor whereas they will not be drunk, but Allah's punishment is severe." (Ayahs 1 and 2)
馃搶 Allah also cautions those Mu'minin whose faith is weak that they should make a concerted effort to strengthen their Iman and carry out good acts so that the welfare of their lives in this world and in the Akhirah is not jeopardised.
馃搶 Allah says that it was Ibrahim Alayhis Salam who termed this Ummah as Muslimeen.
馃搶 Allah also mentions the Ka'bah and instructs man to "perform tawaf around the 'Baitul Atiq' (the Ka'bah)." (Ayah 29)
馃搶 Thereafter, certain rites of Haj are mentioned, about which Allah states, "And whoever honours Allah's signs, then this is due to the Taqwa of hearts" (Ayah 32).
馃搶 With regard to sacrificial animals on the occasion of Hajj Allah says, "Their flesh and blood will never reach Allah, but it is your Taqwa that will reach Him." (Ayah 37).
馃搶 Allah concludes Surah Hajj with the following message to the Muslims:
馃崅 "Oh you who believe, bow, prostrate, worship your Rabb and carry out good acts so that you may be successful.
馃崅 Strive for Allah with the endeavour that is His right.
馃崅 He has chosen you and has not placed any hardship upon in religion.
馃崅 Follow the creed of your father, Hazrath Ibrahim Alayhis Salam.
馃崅 It was he who named you Muslims from before and in this Qur'an, so that the Nabi' be a witness over you people, and that you be witnesses over mankind.
馃崅 So establish Salah, pay Zakah and hold fast to (the rope of) Allah.
馃崅 He is your Protecting Friend.
馃崅 The Best Protecting Friend and the Best Helper" (Ayahs 77 & 78).
