As salamualaykumwaRahmatuLlah.

All Praises and thanks are to Allah the most high and we ask Him to send His salutations and blessing to our Prophet SAW

Today ill want us to start with our ramadan series, The Qur'an in our lives

Since this is the first I’ll make it very brief.

May Allah ease it for us.Servants of Allah, the Qur'an is one of the things we as muslims take a lot of pride in.

The Quran is the word of Allah in all its forms.

Allah SWA revealed it to our noble Prophet saw via Angel Jibril. So that he SAW will become a warner to the disbelievers and also a giver of glad tidings to the believer

This Noble Book servants of Allah was revealed in a very clear tongue to the whole of mankind and it contains everything that we need in order to better or deen and also our dunya

Without the Quran, no matter how rich or famous you are, you will still have a wretched life. So now we are going to take our verse for this week and then talk just a little concerning it.As i said earlier this is going to very short. May Allah ease it for us.

Our verse or verses for this week will be the the first verses of the Quran.

The chapter of the opening.Which is suratulfatiha

This chapter has numerous names

It is called suratulHamd sometimes

It is called suraltulruqya

It can also be called suratulshafaa'ah

We begin with name of Allah as He Himself did. By saying

                                                            

IN THE NAME OF ALLAH THE MOST GRACIOUS THE MOST MERCIFUL

Allah is the ultimate name which Allah has chosen among His other names.

The name Allah can even make the lame man know that this is the name of the one who deserves to be worship

This name is the greatest of names

A name with which a servant can reap a lot of favours if he gives it its rights

Allah is the most Gracious. This gracious is a form of mercy which Allah has engulfed all his creatures with. Allah's mercy exceeds His wrath. The Prophet saw made it known to us that Allah divided his mercy into 100 parts. Out of this 100 He gave one to all His creatures and then kept the remaining 99. This shows how merciful Allah IS. Allah the most High is more merciful to His slaves than a breastfeeding mother is merciful to her baby.

The other mercy of Allah at the end of this verse is the mercy of Allah which is solely for those who have accepted amd established the rights of Allah as the only deity worthy of worship. And that is the mercy with which Allah shall admit His servants into Jannah on the day of Qiyama

THE BEST OF PRAISES AND THANKS ARE DUE TO ALLAH THE LORD OF THE WORLD

This is the second verse of this great surah

The word that was used for praise here was the arabic word 'Hamd'

This word 'Hamd' refers to a kind of praise or thanks given to a person because hedeserves that praise. Not because he has done something for you. And who is more deserving of Praises and Thanks servants of Allah. As muslims we need to give Praises and thanks to Allah the most high all the time. Because he deserves the Praises.Even if Allah hasnt done anything at all for you(which is not likely) you still have to praise and thank Him.

Why?

Because He is Allah, he is the Greatest, he is the most High,he source of all that exist and will ever exist. Servants of Allah due to time factor ill end here and finish next adding our next verse(s) of the next in a more comprehensive presentation next.

But before that what have we learnt from the two ayaaatsi have shared

We have to acknowledge the mercy of Allah SWA

The fact that Allah is merciful even to those who dont believe He exists.

He still sends them rain and doesn’t withhold their breath. As Muslims we should fear Allah. We should even be shy of Allah because how can we know that Allah is this merciful and even more than that then we will still disobey Him deliberately

We should constantly give Praises and thanks to Allah for He deserves them servants of Allah. When we acknowledge that Allah is deserving of the best Praises and thanks, Allah will also acknowledge us and make us among those who deserve His favours and mercy.May Allah accept our acts of worship and grant us Jannah.

As SalamuAlaykum
