Surah al Baqarah

Ayahs 74 – 82

AYAH 74

Then your hearts became hardened after that, being like stones or even harder. For indeed,

there are stones from which rivers burst forth, and there are some of them that split open

and water comes out, and there are some of them that fall down for fear of Allah . And

Allah is not unaware of what you do.

Ibn Hajar Al-Asqalaanee’s advice on cure of Heart

LessonsSome people have hearts that are

harder than rocks.

Our Actions show our Status of Heart

Our Delay in obedience of Allah, makes our hearts harder

We should keep checking our hearts!

O Allah! The Over-turner of hearts, make my heart

steadfast and firmupon Your Deen.

Du’a of Rasool Allah (s.a.w)

Rocks have some sort of life in them!

If We had sent down this Qur’ān upon a mountain, you would have seen it humbled and coming apart from

fear of Allāh. [al-Hashr: 21]

Before the Prophethood of the Prophet(s.a.w.), rocks would also say salaam to him.

On the day of judgement - these rocks would give testimony as well.

Black Stone will testify on the Day of Judgement.

AYAH 75

Do you covet [the hope, O believers], that they would believe for you while a party of them used to hear the words of Allah and then

distort the Torah after they had understood it while they were

knowing?

Lessons

Not Respecting the Speech of Allah is a Crime

Allah is comforting believers and Rasool Allah (s.a.w)

Guidance is in the hands of Allah alone

Knowledge Alone is not equivalent to Guidance

We should not change the words of Allah, but change ourselves

Changing Kalam of Allah is worst than disobeying Allah

AYAH 76

And when they meet those who believe, they say, "We have believed"; but when

they are alone with one another, they say, "Do you talk to them about what Allah has

revealed to you so they can argue with you about it before your Lord?" Then will

you not reason?

Lessons

Hiding the Truth, Doesn’t change the Truth

Our Ego should not come in the way of our belief

They knew that Rasool Allah (s.a.w) was the messenger they were waiting for

O Allah! Purify my heart from hypocrisy, my deeds from any kind of Ria (boasting), my tongue from lying and my eye from treachery. For indeed only You know the treachery of the eyes and what

lays hidden in the breasts.

Du’a of Rasool Allah (s.a.w)

AYAH 79

So woe to those who write the "scripture" with their own hands, then say, "This is

from Allah ," in order to exchange it for a small price. Woe to them for what their hands have written and woe to them for

what they earn.

Inventing Things in Deen is a Great Sin

AYAH 80

And they say, "Never will the Fire touch us, except for a few days." Say, "Have you taken a covenant with Allah ? For

Allah will never break His covenant. Or do you say about Allah that which you do

not know?"

Lessons

We should know what exactly is Deen

To Say What You Hear is enough for you to be a liar

Don’t say anything before checking its authenticity

Don’t label things Halal or Haram without knowledge

AYAH 81

the companions of the Fire; they will abide therein eternally.

Paradise; they will abide therein eternally.
