Al-Munafiqun - 63:10


وَأَنفِقُواْ مِن مَّا رَزَقۡنَٰكُم مِّن قَبۡلِ أَن يَأۡتِىَ أَحَدَكُمُ ٱلۡمَوۡتُ فَيَقُولَ رَبِّ لَوۡلَآ أَخَّرۡتَنِىٓ إِلَىٰٓ أَجَلٍ قَرِيبٍ فَأَصَّدَّقَ وَأَكُن مِّنَ ٱلصَّٰلِحِينَ

And spend (in charity) of that with which We have provided you, before death comes to one of you and he says: "My Lord! If only You would give me respite for a little while (i.e. return to the worldly life), then I should give Sadaqah (i.e. Zakat) of my wealth, and be among the righteous [i.e. perform Hajj (pilgrimage to Makkah)].

‎Ḥasan al-Baṣrī رحمه الله said:

‎“Know that you do not love Allah, until you love being obedient to him.”

‎[Fatḥ Ḏī ʾl-Jalāli wa ʾl-Ikrām bi Sharḥ Bulūġ al-Marām]

‎انا عند ظن عبدي بي

‎"I am as my slave thinks of me"

‎NEVER forget this hadeeth - when we believe Allah سبحانه وتعالى will do it for us - He WILL.

As you get more religious, your love for others is supposed to increase. You get kinder, more tolerant & wiser; not about being arrogant.

‎Ibn Taymiyyah رحمه الله said:

‎“The one who repents from sin is like one who did not sin, and if the sin is removed, then the punishment and consequences are also removed.”

‎[Sharh al-‘Umdah 4/39]

‎Shaykh Ibn Bāz رحمه الله: With a hardship there are 3 affairs;

‎• Being patient with it - It's obligatory
‎• Being pleased with it - It's Sunnah
‎• Being grateful for it - It's most virtuous/best

‎ʿĀʾishah رضي الله عنها reported Allah's Messenger ﷺ as saying:

‎There is no day when God sets free more servants from Hell than the Day of ʿArafah. He draws near, then praises them to the angels, saying: "What do these want?"

‎[Muslim]

‎Ibn Kathīr رحمه الله said: “It is the custom of this worldly life that it runs away from the one who seeks to possess it and goes after the one who runs away from it.”

‎(Tafsīr Ibn Kathīr 197/4)

Shaykh Ibn Qayyim (RH) said: I and my brother- Shaykh Al Islam- completed reciting the Qur'an 80 times while we were in the last prison. We then started for the 81th round until the Shaykh Al Islam reached this verse:

Sura 54 - Ayat 54-55

"Verily, The Muttaqun (pious), will be in the midst of Gardens and Rivers (Paradise). In a seat of truth (i.e. Paradise), near the Omnipotent King (Allah, the All-Blessed, the Most High, the Owner of Majesty and Honour).

And just as Shaykh Al Islam Ibn Taymiyyah RH finished reciting these last two verses of Surah Qamar, his soul was taken from him

May Allah have mercy on him and Ibn Qayyim.

فَلَا ٱقۡتَحَمَ ٱلۡعَقَبَةَ

English - Mohsin Khan/Taqi-ud-Din al-Hilali
But he has made no effort to pass on the path that is steep.

English - Ibn Kathir
The Encouragement to traverse upon the Path of Goodness

Allah said,

فَلَ اقْتَحَمَ الْعَقَبَةَ




But he has not attempted to pass on the path that is steep.

Ibn Zayd said,

"This means, will he not traverse upon the path which contains salvation and good.

Then He explains this path by His saying,
