CERTAINTY:

2:46 - Who bear in mind the certainty that they are to meet their Lord and that they are to return to Him.

13:2 - Allah is He Who raised the heavens without any pillars that ye can see; is firmly established on the throne (of authority); He has subjected the sun and the moon (to His law)! each one runs (its course) for a term appointed. He doth regulate affairs explaining the Signs in detail that ye may believe with certainty in the meeting with your Lord. 1800 1801 1802 1803

1800 Should we construe the clause "that ye can see" to refer to "pillars" or "to the heavens"? Either is admissible, but I prefer the former. The heavens are supported on no pillars that we can see. What we see is the blue vault of heaven, but there are invisible forces or conditions created by Allah, which should impress us with His power and glory. (13.2)

1801 Cf. x. 3, and n. 1386. We must not think that anything came into being by itself or carries out its functions by itself. Allah is the Creator from Whom everything has its life and being and through Whom everything is maintained and supported, even though fixed laws are established for its regulation and government. The "term appointed" limits the duration of their functioning: its ultimate return is to Allah, as its beginning proceeded from Allah. (13.2)

1802 Cf. x. 31, n. 1425. Where the laws of nature are fixed, and everything runs according to its appointed course, the government and regulation behind it is still that of Allah. Where there is limited free will as in man, yet the ultimate source of man's faculties is Allah. Allah cares for His creatures. He does not, as in the idea of polytheistic Greece, sit apart on Olympus, careless of His creatures. (13.2)

1803 One manifestation of His caring for His creatures, even where a limited amount of free-will is granted for their development, is that He is careful to explain His Signs both in nature and in express and detailed revelation through His Messengers, lest man should have any doubts whether he has to return ultimately to his Lord and account for all his actions during the "term appointed," when he was given some initiative by way of trial and preparation. If man attends carefully to the Signs, he should have no doubt whatever. (13.2)

56:95 - Verily this is the Very Truth and Certainty. 5272

5272 "The assurance of the Hereafter" is one of the strongest features of Faith. For without it the apparent inequalities and injustices of this Life cannot be satisfactorily explained. (56.95)

69:51 - But verily it is Truth of assured certainty. 5673

5673 All Truth is in itself. But as received by men, and understood with reference to men's psychology, certainty may have certain degrees. There is the probability or certainty resulting from the application of man's power of judgment and his appraisement of evidence. This is ilmulyaqin, certainty by reasoning or inference. Then there is the certainty of seeing something with our own eyes. "Seeing is believing." This is 'ain-ul-yaqin, certainty by personal inspection. See cii. 5, 7. Then, as here, there is the absolute Truth, with no possiblity of error of judgment or error of the eye, (which stands for any instrument of sense-perception and any ancillary aids, such as microscopes etc.). This absolute Truth is the haqq-il-yaqin spoken of here. (69.51)

102:5 - Nay were ye to know with certainty of mind (Ye would beware!) 6259

6259 Three kinds of yaqin (certainty of knowledge) are described in n. 5673 to lxix. 51. The first is certainty of mind or inference mentioned here: we hear from someone, or we infer from something we know: this refers to our own state of mind. If we instruct our minds in this way, we should value the deeper things of life better, and not waste all our time in ephemeral things. But if we do not use our reasoning faculties now, we shall yet see with our own eyes, the Penalty for our sins. It will be certainty of sight. We shall see Hell. See next verse. But the absolute certainty of assured Truth is that described in lxix. 51. That is not liable to any human error or psychological defects. (102.5)

102:6 - Ye shall certainly see Hell Fire! 6260

6260 See xix. 71-72, and n. 2518. (102.6)

102:7 - Again ye shall see it with certainty of sight!

74:31 - We have appointed only angels to be wardens of the fire, and their number have We made to be a stumbling block for those who disbelieve; that those to whom the scripture hath been given may have certainty, and that believers may increase in faith; and that those to whom the Scripture hath been given and believers may not doubt; and that those in whose hearts there is disease, and disbelievers, may say: What meaneth Allah by this similitude? Thus Allah sendeth astray whom He will, and whom He will He guideth. None knoweth the hosts of thy Lord save Him. This is naught else than a Reminder unto mortals.

Hadith 2478 Narrated by
AbuBakr

Allah's Messenger (peace be upon him) mounted the pulpit, then wept and said, "Ask Allah for forgiveness and health, for after being granted Allah's Messenger (peace be upon him) mounted the pulpit, then wept and said, "Ask Allah for forgiveness and health, for after being granted certainty, one is given nothing better than health."

Tirmidhi and Ibn Majah transmitted it, Tirmidhi saying this is a hasan tradition whose isnad is gharib.

Al-Tirmidhi Hadith
Hadith 2481 Narrated by
Abdullah ibn Umar

Allah's Messenger (peace be upon him) seldom got up to leave an assembly without using these supplications for his companions: "O Allah, apportion to us such fear of Thee as will come between us and acts of disobedience to Thee, such obedience to Thee as will bring us to Thy Paradise, and such certainty that the calamities of this world will be made easy for us by Thee. Let us enjoy our hearing, our sight and our power as long as Thou dost grant us life, and do the same for those who inherit from us. Grant us revenge on those who have wronged us and help us against those who are hostile to us. Let no calamity befall our religion, let not worldly affairs be our greatest care of all that we know about, and let not those who do not show mercy towards us rule over us."

Tirmidhi transmitted it, saying this is a hasan gharib tradition.

CHAINS:

76:4 - For the Rejecters We have prepared Chains Yokes and a Blazing Fire. 5834

40:71 - When the yokes (shall be) round their necks and the chains; they shall be dragged along 4448

4448 The rejection of Allah's Message, however brought, carries its own penalty. The yoke of slavery to Sin and Evil is fastened more and more firmly round the rejecter's neck, because there is no one to safeguard his freedom, and the chains of superstitions and the ugly consequences of evil restrict his freedom and the limited faculty of choice which was given by Allah to man. This process receives its climax at the Hour of Judgment. (40.71)
