Sins and Repentance
67:2- He Who created Death and Life that
He may try which of you is best in deed:
67:2. உங்களில் எவர்
செயல்களால் மிகவும் அழகானவர் என்பதைச் சோதிப்பதற்காக அவன் மரணத்தையும்
வாழ்வையும் படைத்தான மேலும் அவன் (யாவரையும்) மிகைத்தவன் மிக
மன்னிப்பவன்.

10 SINS HOW TO ERASE: ?
1.
By self with sincere
repentance. Do this immediately on realizing and stop committing such sins.
Only Allah could forgive sins.
2.
By good deeds, some
sins get erased. Paying charity for the poor and those in need. If such sins
cannot be stopped, yet they get erased by good deeds.
3.
By having patience
especially in times of Calamity – when you are exposed to them, have patience
without complaining, say – innalillahi wainnailaihi rajioon.
4.
One’s children if
raised as righteous, their praying for their parents, would erase sins.

6.
In the janaza prayer,
if there were atleast 100 people participating and praying for forgiveness of
sins, this too would erase sins; and it is said that even 40 Righteous people
(good charactered without any shirk and bid’ah) , praying for the deceased,
would erase sins.
7.
Punishments in the
Graves – the torture therein for sinners would ease whose sins have been
pardoned by Allah.
8.
Day of Judgement- the
intercession of the Prophet (sal) would erase the sins, if we had followed his
commands seriously and his ways and loved him – as no wise person wants to be
in the Fire.
9.
Reading the Quran
regularly also brings in intercession for the sinners.
10. Finally,if nothing happens, and if
Allah wills, one’s sins would be erased.
Forgiveness
3:89- Except for those that repent (even)
after that and make amends: for verily Allah is Oft-Forgiving Most Merciful.
Note:6289:Faith is a matter of personal conviction,
and does not depend on worldly motives.
Worship should depend on pure and sincere Faith, but often does not; for
motives of worldly gain, ancestral custom, social con- ventions or imitative
instincts, or a lethargic instinct to shrink from enquiring into the real
significance of solemn acts and motives
behind them, reduce a great deal of the world’s worship to sin, selfishness,
or futility. Symbolic idols may
themselves be merely instruments for
safeguarding the privileges of a selfish priestly class, or the ambitions,
greed, or lust of private individuals.
Hence the insistence of Islam and its Prophet on the pure worship of the One True God. The Prophet firmly resisted all appeals to
worldly motives, and stood firm to his Message of eternal Unity.
3:89. எனினும், இதன்பிறகு (இவர்களில்) எவரேனும் (தம் பாவங்களை உணர்ந்து) மன்னிப்புக் கோரித் தங்களைச் சீர்திருத்திக் கொள்வார்களானால், (மன்னிப்புக் கிடைக்கக் கூடும்;) நிச்சயமாக அல்லாஹ் மிகவும் மன்னிப்போனாகவும், அளப்பெருங் கருணையுள்ளவனாகவும் இருக்கின்றான்
3:133-Be quick in the race for
forgiveness from your Lord and for a garden whose width is
that (of the whole) of the heavens and of the
earth prepared for the righteous.
3: :133. இன்னும் நீங்கள் உங்கள் இறைவனின் மன்னிப்பைப் பெறுவதற்கும், சுவனபதியின் பக்கமும் விரைந்து செல்லுங்கள்; அதன் (சுவனபதியின்) அகலம் வானங்கள், பூமியைப் போலுள்ளது; அது பயபக்தியுடையோருக்காகவே தயார் செய்து வைக்கப்பட்டுள்ளது
3:193- "Our Lord! we have heard
the call of one calling (us) to faith `Believe ye in the Lord' and we have
believed. Our Lord! forgive us our sins blot out from us our iniquities and
take to thyself our souls in the company of the righteous.
3:193. “எங்கள் இறைவனே! உங்கள் இறைவன் மீது நம்பிக்கை கொள்ளுங்கள்
என்று ஈமானின் பக்கம் அழைத்தவரின் அழைப்பைச் செவிமடுத்து நாங்கள் திடமாக ஈமான்
கொண்டோம்; “எங்கள் இறைவனே! எங்களுக்கு, எங்கள் பாவங்களை மன்னிப்பாயாக! எங்கள் தீமைகளை எங்களை
விட்டும் அகற்றி விடுவாயாக; இன்னும், எங்க(ளுடைய ஆன்மாக்க)ளைச் சான்றோர்களு(டைய ஆன்மாக்களு)டன்
கைப்பற்றுவாயாக!” (என்றும்;)
3:194- "Our Lord! grant us what
Thou didst promise unto us through thine Apostles and save us from shame on the
Day of Judgment: for thou never breakest Thy promise.
3:194. “எங்கள் இறைவனே! இன்னும் உன் தூதர்கள் மூலமாக எங்களுக்கு நீ
வாக்களித்ததை எங்களுக்குத் தந்தருள்வாயாக! கியாம நாளில் எங்களை இழிவுபடுத்தாது இருப்பாயாக! நிச்சயமாக நீ வாக்குறுதிகளில் மாறுபவன் அல்ல (என்றும் பிரார்த்தித்துக் கொண்டிருப்பார்கள்)
إِنَّ اللَّهَ كَانَ عَفُوًّا غَفُورًا
4:43- For Allah doth blot out sins and forgive
again and again.
நிச்சயமாக அல்லாஹ் பிழை பொறுப்பவனாகவும், மன்னிப்பவனாகவும்
இருக்கின்றான்.
4:99- For these there is hope that
Allah will forgive: for Allah doth blot out (sins) and forgive
again and again.
4:99-
அத்தகையோரை அல்லாஹ் மன்னிக்கப் போதுமானவன்; ஏனெனில்
அல்லாஹ் மிகவும் மன்னிப்பவனாகவும், பிழை பொறுப்பவனாகவும் இருக்கின்றான்
20:82- "But without doubt I am
(also) He that forgives again and again to
those who repent believe and do right who in fine are ready to receive true
guidance."
20:82. “எவன்
பாவமன்னிப்புத் தேடி ஈமான் கொண்டு நற்செயல்களையும் செய்து அப்பால் நேர்வழியும்
அடைகிறானோ அவனுக்கு நிச்சயமாக நான் மிகவும் மன்னிப்பவனாக இருக்கின்றேன்” (என்று
கூறினோம்).
4:48- Allah forgiveth
not that partners should be set up with him; but He forgiveth
anything else to whom He pleaseth; to set up partners with Allah is to devise a
sin most heinous indeed. 569
Note:569: Just as in an earthly
kingdom the worst crime is that of treason, as it cuts at the very existence of
the State, so in the Divine Kingdom, the unforgivable sin is that of
contumacious treason against Allah by putting up Allah’ creatures in rivalry
against Him. This is rebellion against the Creator. It is what Plato would call the “lie in the
soul.” But even here, if the rebellion
is through ignorance, and is followed by sincere repentance and amendment,
Allah’s Mercy is always open.
4:48. நிச்சயமாக
அல்லாஹ் தனக்கு இணைவைப்பதை மன்னிக்கமாட்டான்; இதைத்தவிர, (மற்ற) எதையும் தான் நாடியவர்களுக்கு மன்னிப்பான்; யார் அல்லாஹ்வுக்கு இணைவைக்கிறார்களோ அவர்கள்
நிச்சயமாக மிகவும் பெரிய பாவத்தையே கற்பனை செய்கின்றார்கள்.
4:116- Allah forgiveth not (the sin of) joining other gods
with Him: but He forgiveth whom He pleaseth
other sins than this: one who joins other gods with Allah hath strayed far far
away (from the right).
4:116. நிச்சயமாக அல்லாஹ் தனக்கு இணை வைப்பதை
மன்னிக்கவே மாட்டான்; இது அல்லாத (பாவத்)தைத் தான் நாடியவருக்கு மன்னிப்பான்; எவன் ஒருவன் அல்லாஹ்வுக்கு இணை வைக்கின்றானோ, அவன்
நிச்சயமாக வெகு தூரமான வழிகேட்டில் ஆகிவிட்டான்.
8:38- Say to the unbelievers if (now)
they desist (from unbelief) their past would be forgiven them; but if they
persist the punishment of those before them is already (a matter of warning for
them).
8:38. நிராகரிப்போருக்கு
(நபியே!) நீர் கூறும்: இனியேனும் அவர்கள்
(விஷமங்களை) விட்டும் விலகிக் கொள்வார்களானால், (அவர்கள்) முன்பு செய்த (குற்றங்கள்) அவர்களுக்கு மன்னிக்கப்படும். (ஆனால் அவர்கள் முன்போலவே விஷமங்கள் செய்ய) மீண்டும் முற்படுவார்களானால்,
முன்சென்றவர்களுக்குச் செய்தது நிச்சயமாக நடந்தேரி
இருக்கிறது. (அதுவே இவர்களுக்கும்.)
11:52- "And O my people! ask forgiveness of your Lord and turn to Him (in
repentance): He will send you the skies pouring abundant rain and add strength
to your strength: so turn ye not back in sin!" 1546
11:52-
. “என்னுடைய
சமூகத்தார்களே! நீங்கள் உங்களுடைய இறைவனிடம் பிழை பொறுக்கத்
தேடுங்கள்; இன்னும் (தவ்பா செய்து) அவன் பக்கமே மீளுங்கள்;
அவன் உங்கள் மீது வானத்திலிருந்து தொடராக மழையை அனுப்புவான்; மேலும்
உங்களுடைய வலிமையுடன் மேலும் வலிமை பெருகச் செய்வான் - இன்னும் நீங்கள் (அவனைப்) புறக்கணித்துக் குற்றவாளிகளாகி விடாதீர்கள்” (என்றும் எச்சரித்துக் கூறினார்)
38:66-"The Lord of the heavens
and the earth and all between Exalted in Might Able to enforce His will forgiving again and again.
38:66. “(அவனே) வானங்களுக்கும், பூமிக்கும்,
இவ்விரண்டிற்குமிடையே உள்ளவற்றுக்கும் இறைவனாக இருக்கின்றான்;
அவன் (யாவரையும்) மிகைத்தவன்; மிகவும்
மன்னிப்பவன்.”
47:19- Know therefore that there is
no god but Allah and ask forgiveness for the
fault and for the men and women who believe: for Allah knows how ye move about
and how ye dwell in your homes.
47:19. ஆகவே, நிச்சயமாக அல்லாஹ்வைத் தவிர
(வேறு) நாயன் இல்லை என்று நீர் அறிந்து கொள்வீராக; இன்னும் உம்முடைய பாவத்திற்காகவும், முஃமின்களான ஆண்களுக்காகவும், பெண்களுக்காகவும் (பாவ) மன்னிப்புத் தேடுவீராக - அன்றியும்
உங்களுடைய நடமாட்டத்தலத்தையும் உங்கள் தங்குமிடங்களையும் அல்லாஹ் நன்கறிகிறான்.
REPENTANCE
2:74- Thenceforth were
your hearts hardened; they became like a rock and even worse in hardness. For
among rocks there are some from which rivers gush forth; others there are which
when split asunder send forth water; and others which sink for fear of Allah.
And Allah is not unmindful of what ye do. 82
Note:82- The
sinner’s heart gets harder and harder. It is even harder than rocks, of which a
beautiful poetical allegory is placed
before us. In nature we think
there is nothing harder than rocks. But
there are rocks that weep voluntarily, like repentant hearts that come to God
of their own accord, such as the rocks from which rivers and springs flow
spontaneoously, sometimes in small trickles, sometimes in big volumes. Then there are rocks which have to be split or dug into or blown up with
dynamite, and underneath we find abundant waters, as in well beneath rocks
soil. Such are the hearts of a less
degree of fineness, which yet melt into tears when some great blow or calamity
calls the mind to higher things. And
lastly, there are hearts which will come to God by no higher motive than fear,
but yet fear will melt them into tears of REPENTANCE. But the hardened sinner is worse than all
these. His case is worse than that of
rocks, for nothing will melt him.
2:74. இதன் பின்னரும் உங்கள் இதயங்கள் இறுகி விட்டன; அவை கற்பாறையைப்போல் ஆயின; அல்லது, (அதை விடவும்)அதிகக்
கடினமாயின; (ஏனெனில்) திடமாகக்
கற்பாறைகள் சிலவற்றினின்று ஆறுகள் ஒலித்தோடுவதுண்டு; இன்னும், சில பிளவுபட்டுத் திடமாக
அவற்றினின்று தண்ணீர் வெளிப்படக் கூடியதுமுண்டு; இன்னும், திடமாக அல்லாஹ்வின் மீதுள்ள
அச்சத்தால் சில(கற்பாறைகள்) உருண்டு விழக்கூடியவையும் உண்டு; மேலும், அல்லாஹ் நீங்கள் செய்து
வருவது பற்றி கவனிக்காமல் இல்லை.
2:160- Except those who repent and make amends and openly declare (the
truth) to them I turn; for I am Oft-Returning Most Merciful.
2:160. எவர்கள்
பாவமன்னிப்புத் தேடி(தங்களைத்) திருத்திக் கொண்டு (தாங்கள் மறைத்தவற்றை) தெளிவுபடுத்திக் கொண்டார்களோ அவர்களைத் தவிர (மற்றவர்கள் சாபத்திற்குரியவர்கள்.) அவர்களை நான் மன்னித்து விடுகிறேன். நான் மன்னிப்பவனாகவும் கிருபையுடையோனாகவும் இருக்கின்றேன்
2:167-And those who followed would say:
"If only we had one more chance we would clear ourselves of them as they have cleared
themselves of us." Thus will Allah show them (the fruits of) their deeds
as (nothing but) regrets nor will there be a way for them out of the fire
2:167. (அத்தலைவர்களைப்) பின்பற்றியவர்கள் கூறுவார்கள்: “நமக்கு (உலகில் வாழ) இன்னொரு வாய்ப்புக் கிடைக்குமானால், அ(த்தலை)வர்கள் நம்மைக் கைவிட்டு விட்டதைப் போல் நாமும் அவர்களைக்
கைவிட்டு விடுவோம்.” இவ்வாறே அல்லாஹ் அவர்கள் செய்த செயல்களை
அவர்களுக்குப் பெருந்துக்கம் அளிப்பதாக எடுத்துக் காட்டுவான்; அன்றியும், அவர்கள்
நரக நெருப்பினின்றும் வெளியேறுகிறவர்களும் அல்லர்
10:54- Every soul that
hath sinned if it possessed all that is on earth would fain give it in ransom:
they would declare (their) repentance when they see the Penalty: but the
judgment between them will be with justice and no wrong will be done unto them. 1445
Declare their repentance: “When the Penalty stares the sinners in the
face, they would give anything to escape it, and they would even openly declare
their REPENTANCE, which would be a source of shame and ignominy to them,.” They
would give anything to escape the Penalty; but the hardest thing of all for
them is frankly to confess and repent, and so they conceal their sense of shame
and ignominy.
10:54-
(அந்த நாளின்) வேதனையைக் காணும்போது அநியாயம் செய்த ஒவ்வோர்
ஆத்மாவும், அதனிடம் உலகத்திலுள்ள பொருட்கள் எல்லாமே
இருந்திருந்தாலும் அவை அனைத்தையுமே (தனக்குப்) பரிகாரமாகக் கொடுத்துவிட நாடும்; தன் கைசேதத்தையும், கழிவிரக்கத்தையும்
வெளிப்படுத்தும்; ஆனால் (அந்நாளில்) அவையிடையே நியாயமாகவே தீர்ப்பளிக்கப்படும் - (ஒரு சிறிதும்) அவற்றுக்கு
அநியாயம் செய்யப்பட மாட்டாது
11:3- ("And to preach thus)
`Seek ye the forgiveness of your Lord and turn to Him in repentance; that He
may grant you enjoyment good (and true) for a term appointed and bestow His
abounding grace on all who abound in merit! But if ye turn away then I fear for
you the Penalty of a Great Day:
11:3-
“நீங்கள்
உங்கள் இறைவனிடம் மன்னிப்பைத் தேடி (பாவங்களை விட்டு) அவனிடம் திரும்புங்கள்;
(நீங்கள் அவ்வாறு செய்தால்) அவன் ஒரு குறித்த தவணைவரை உங்களுக்கு வாழ்க்கை
வசதிகளை ஏற்படுத்துவான்;
இன்னும், அருளுடைய ஒவ்வொருவருக்கும் (மறுமையில்) தன் அருளை (அதிகமாகவே) கொடுப்பான்;
ஆனால் நீங்கள் (ஈமான் கொள்வதைப்) புறக்கணித்தால்,
மாபெரும் நாளின் வேதனை குறித்து நிச்சயமாக உங்களுக்காக நான்
பயப்படுகிறேன்”
(என்றும்
15:4- Never did We destroy a
population that had not a term decreed and assigned beforehand. 1938
Note: 1938- 1). For every
people, as for every individual, there is a definite Term assigned: their
faculty of choice gives them the opportunity of moulding their will according to
Allah’s Will, and thus identifying themselves with Allah’s Universal Law. During that Term they will be given plenty of
rope; after that Term is past, there will be no opportunity for REPENTANCE,
2). Neither the righteous nor the ungodly can hasten or delay the doom;
Allah’s Will must prevail, and He is All-Wise,
3)The destruction of a people is not an arbitrary punishment from Allah:
the people bring it on themselves by their own choice; for the fixed Laws or
Decree of Allah is always made known to them beforehand, and in many ways..
15:4-
. எந்த
ஊர்(வாசி)களையும் (அவர்களுடைய பாவங்களின் காரணமாக) அவர்களுக்கெனக் குறிப்பிட்ட
காலத்தவணையிலன்றி நாம் அழித்துவிடுவதுமில்லை.
16:64-And We sent down the Book to
thee for the express purpose that thou shouldst make clear to them those things
in which they differ and that it should be a guide and a mercy to those who
believe.
16:64-
. (நபியே!) அன்றியும்,
அவர்கள் எ(வ் விஷயத்)தில் தர்க்கித்துக் கொண்டிருந்தார்களோ அதை நீர்
தெளிவாக்குவதற்காகவே உம் மீது இவ்வேதத்தை இறக்கினோம்; இன்னும், ஈமான்
கொண்டுள்ள மக்களுக்கு (இது) நேரான வழியாகவும்,
ரஹ்மத்தாகவும் (அருளாகவும்) இருக்கிறது.
16:84-One day We shall
raise from all peoples a witness: then will no excuse be accepted from
Unbelievers nor will they receive any favors. 2122
Note:2122- To each
people is sent Allah’s Messenger or Teacher, to point out the right way. There
may be one, or there may be many. Such a Messenger (Rasul) will be a witness
that Allah’s Truth was preached to all peoples in express terms, in addition to
;the Signs of Allah everywhere in nature. There will then be no room for
excuses of any kind. Those who rejected
Allah after repeated warnings cannot reasonably ask for more respite, as they
had every kind of respite during their life of probation; nor can they now take
refuge behind Allah’s Grace, which they had repeatedly rejected. That is, they will not be allowed to seek grace
by REPENTANCE.
Note: 2123- When the
terrible Penalty is actually on them, it is too late for REPENTANCE and for
asking for Mercy. Justice must take its course.
16:84-. ஒவ்வொரு
சமூகத்தாரிலிருந்தும் ஒரு சாட்சியை நாம் எழுப்பும் (நாளை நினைவூட்டுவீராக; அந்)நாளில் நிராகரிப்பவர்களுக்கு(ப் புகழ் கூறுவதற்கு) அனுமதி வழங்கப்படமாட்டாது;
(அல்லாஹ்வுக்குப் பொருத்தமானதை செய்து, அவ்வேளை
தண்டனைக்குத் தப்பித்துக் கொள்ளவும்) இடங்கொடுக்கப்பட மாட்டாது மாட்டாது
-
16:85- When the wrongdoers (actually)
see the Penalty then will it in no way be mitigated nor will they then receive
respite. 2123
16:85- அக்கிரமக்காரர்கள் (மறுமையில்) வேதனையைக் (கண்கூடாகப்) பார்க்கும்போது,
(தம் வேதனையைக் குறைக்குமாறு எவ்வளவு வேண்டினாலும்) அவர்களுக்கு (வேதனை) இலேசாக்கவும் பட மாட்டாது; அன்றியும் (அவ்வேதனை பெறுவதில்) அவர்கள் தாமதப் படுத்தபடவும் மாட்டார்கள்
-
17:96- Say: "Enough is Allah for
a witness between me and you: for He is well-acquainted with His servants and
He sees (all things)." 2301
Note:2301- If you want a real witness, it is not these
sorts of fancy miracles, but the witness of the true ever-living Allah. Purify your hearts, and ask Him in true
contrition and repentance, and He will guide you and show you the Way.
17:96- 17:96. “எனக்கிடையிலும், உங்களுக்கிடையிலும்
சாட்சியாக இருக்க அல்லாஹ்வே போதுமானவன்; நிச்சயமாக
அவன் தன் அடியார்களைப் பற்றி நன்கு அறிந்தவனாகவும், (யாவற்றையும்) பார்ப்பவனாகவும் இருக்கின்றான்” என்று (நபியே!) நீர் கூறுவீராக.
19:83- Seest thou not that We have
set the Evil Ones on against the Unbelievers to incite them with fury? 2527
Note:2527-Under the laws instituted by Allah, when evil reaches a certain
stage of rebellion and defiance, it is left to gather momentum and rush with
fury to its own destruction. It is given
a certain amount of respite, as a last
chance: but failing REPENTANCE. its days are numbered. The godly therefore should not worry
themselves over the apparent worldly success of evil, but should get on with
their own duties in a spirit of trust in Allah.
19:83- . காஃபிர்களை
(வழி கேட்டில் செல்லும்படித்) தூண்டிக் கொண்டிருப்பதற்காகவே நிச்சயமாக ஷைத்தான்களை நாம் அனுப்பியிருக்கிறோம்
என்பதை நீர் பார்க்க வில்லையா?
20:109- On that Day shall no
intercession avail except for those for whom permission has been granted by
(Allah) Most Gracious and whose word is acceptable to Him. 2634
Note:2634- Here man is
in the accusative case governed by tanfa’u, and it is better to construe as I
have done. That is, intercession will
benefit no one except those for whom Allah has granted permission, and whose
word (of repentance) is true and sincere, and therefore acceptable to
Allah. Others construe: no intercession
will avail, except by those to whom Allah has granted permission, and whose
word (of intercession) is acceptable to Allah;.
In that case the two distinct clauses have no distinct meanings.
20:109. அந்நாளில்
அர்ரஹ்மான் எவரை அனுமதித்து, எவருடைய பேச்சை உவந்து கொள்கிறானோ, அவர்களைத்
தவிர வேறு எவருடைய ஷஃபாஅத்தும் (பரிந்துரையும்) பலனளிக்காது.
21:12- Yet when they felt Our
Punishment (coming) behold they (tried to) flee from it. 2673
Note:2673-When they
had every chance of repentance and reform, they rejected Allah’s Message, and
perhaps even put up an open defiance.
When they actually began to feel the Wrath coming, they began to flee,
but it was too late! Besides, where could they flee to from the Wrath of Allah?
Hence the ironical appeal to them in the next verse: better go back to your
luxuries and what you thought were your permanent homes! Cf.Christ’s saying in
the present Gospel of St.Matthew (iii.7): “O generation of vipers, who hath
warned you to flee from the Wrath to come?”
21:12. ஆகவே, அவர்கள்
நமது வேதனை (வருவதை) உணர்ந்தபோது,
அவர்கள் அங்கிருந்து விரைந்தோடலானார்கள்
22:21- In addition there will be
maces of iron (to punish) them. 2794
Note:2826- If Allah gives respite, those to whom it is given have a real
chance of repentance and amendment. He
will not curtail His promise of respite.
But on the other hand He has promised to call everyone to account for
his deeds, and this involves justice and punishment for sin. This promise will also come true. It is foolish to try to hasten it. Time with Him is nothing. We keep count of time for our relative
calculations. His existence is absolute,
and not conditioned by Time or Place. What
we call a thousand years may be nothing more than a day or a minute to Him.
Note:2794- Read this with the next verse.
There will be no escape from the final Punishment adjudged after the
time of repentance is past.
22:21- இன்னும்
அவர்களுக்காக இரும்பினாலான தண்டங்களும் உண்டு
22:47- Yet they ask thee to hasten on
the Punishment! But Allah will not fail in His promise. Verily a day in the
sight of thy Lord is like a thousand years of your reckoning. 2826 22:47. (நபியே! இன்னும் வரவில்லையே என்று) வேதனையை அவர்கள் அவசரமாக தேடுகிறார்கள்; அல்லாஹ்
தன் வாக்குறுதிக்கு மாறு செய்வதேயில்லை; மேலும்
உம்முடைய இறைவனிடம் ஒரு நாள் என்பது, நீங்கள் கணக்கிடுகிற ஆயிரம் ஆண்டுகளைப்
போலாகும்
25:69-70- (But) the Penalty on the
Day of Judgment will be doubled to him and he will dwell therein in ignominy 3129
70-Unless he repents believes and
works righteous deeds for Allah will change the evil of such persons into good
and Allah is Oft-Forgiving Most Merciful 3130
Note:3130- but even in the case of
great crimes, if there is true repentance as tested by a changed life in
conduct, Allah’ Mercy is available, and it will transform the repentant’s
nature from evil to good.
25:69. கியாம நாளில் அவருடைய வேதனை இரட்டிப்பாக்கப்படும்; இன்னும்
அதில் இழிவாக்கப்பட்டவராக என்றென்றும் தங்கிவிடுவர்.
25:70. ஆனால்
(அவர்களில் எவர்) தவ்பா செய்து ஈமானுங் கொண்டு, ஸாலிஹான
(நற்) செய்கைகள் செய்கிறார்களோ - அவர்களுடைய பாவங்களை அல்லாஹ் நன்மையாக மாற்றிவிடுவான். மேலும்,
அல்லாஹ் மிக்க மன்னிப்போனாகவும், மிக்க
கிருபையுடையோனாகவும் இருக்கின்றான்.
26:204-Do they then ask for Our
Penalty to be hastened on? 3230
Note:3230-While some sinners out of
negligence postpone the day of repentance till it is too late, others more bold
actually ask out of bravado that Allah’s
Punishment should be brought down on them at once, as they do not believe in
Allah or His Punishment! The answer to
them is: It will come soon enough-too soon, they will think, when it comes!
27:72- Say: "It may be that some
of the events which ye wish to hasten on may be (close) in your pursuit!" 3307
Note:3307- The Unbelievers-or even
men of half-hearted faith-may say, “Why worry over distant future events? Take
the day as it comes!” But that is a
fallacy. Judgment is certain, and it may be that this very hour may be the hour
of doom for any given individual. This
is he hour of repentance and amendment.
For Allah wishes well to all mankind in spite of their ingratitude.
27:72 “நீங்கள் அவசரப்படுபவற்றில் சில இப்பொழுதே
உங்களுக்கு வந்து சேரக்கூடும்” என்று (நபியே!) நீர் கூறிவிடுவீராக.
28:84- If any does good the reward to
him is better than his deed; but if any does evil the doers of evil are only
punished (to the extent) of their deeds. 3414
Note:3414- A good deed has its sure
reward, and that reward will be better than the merits of the doer. An evil
deed may be forgiven by repentance, but in any case will not be punished with a
severer penalty than justice demands.
28:84. எவரேனும் நன்மையைக் கொண்டு வந்தால் அவருக்கு
அதைவிட மேலானது உண்டு; எவன் தீமையை செய்கிறானோ தீமை செய்வோர் அவர்கள்
செய்ததற்குச் சமமான கூலியைப் பெறுவார்கள்.
29:53- They ask thee to hasten on the
Punishment (for them): had it not been for a term (of respite) appointed the
Punishment would certainly have come to them: and it will certainly reach them
of a sudden while they perceive not! 3485
Note:3485- The rejecters of Faith
throw out a challenge out of bravado:”Let us see if you can hasten the
punishment on us!” This is the vail
taunt. Allah’s Plan will take its course, and can neither delayed nor hastened. It is out of His Mercy that He gives respite
to sinners, in order that they may have a chance of repentance. If they do not repent, the Punishment must
certainly come to them-and on a sudden, before they perceive that it is
coming! And then it will be too late for
repentance.
29:53. இன்னும், (மறுமையின்) வேதனையைப் பற்றி அவர்கள் உம்மை
அவசரப்படுத்துகிறார்கள்;
மேலும், (அதற்கெனக்) குறிப்பிட்ட தவணை ஏற்படுத்தப்படாதிருப்பின்
அவ்வேதனை அவர்களுக்கு வந்திருக்கும்;
எனினும் (அத்தவணையை) அவர்கள் உணர்ந்தறிய முடியாதிருக்கும் நிலையில், அவர்களிடம் அ(வ்வேதனையான)து திடீரென்று வந்து சேரும்.
3:128- Not for thee (but for Allah)
is the decision: whether He turn in mercy to them or punish them; for they are
indeed wrong-doers. 449
Note:449- Uhud is as much a sign-post
for Islam as Badr. For us in these
latter days it carries an ever greater lesson.
Allah’s help will come if we have faith, obedience, discipline, unity,
and the spirit of acting in righteousness and justice. If we fail, His mercy is always open to
us. But it is also open to our enemies,
and those who seem to us His enemies.
His Plan may be to bring sinners
to repentance, and to teach us righteousness and wisdom through those
who seem in our eyes to be rebellious or even defiant. There may be good in them that He sees and we
do not, - a humbling thought that must lead to our own self-examination and
self-improvement.
3:128. (நபியே!) உமக்கு இவ்விஷயத்தில் ஒரு சம்பந்தமும் இல்லை. அவன் அவர்களை மன்னித்து விடலாம்; அல்லது அவர்களை வேதனைப்படுத்தலாம் - நிச்சயமாக அவர்கள் கொடியோராக இருப்பதின்
காரணமாக.
3:90- But those who reject faith
after they accepted it and then go on adding to their defiance of faith never
will their repentance be accepted; for they are those who have (of set purpose)
gone astray.
3:90. எவர்
ஈமான் கொண்ட பின் நிராகரித்து மேலும் (அந்த) குஃப்ரை அதிகமாக்கிக் கொண்டார்களோ நிச்சயமாக அவர்களுடைய
தவ்பா - மன்னிப்புக்கோரல் - ஒப்புக்கொள்ளப்பட மாட்டாது;
அவர்கள் தாம் முற்றிலும் வழி கெட்டவர்கள்.
30:31 -Turn ye back in repentance to Him and
fear Him: establish regular prayers and be not ye among those who join gods
with Allah, 3543
Note:3545- It is
trouble, distress, or adversity that makes men realize their helplessness and
turns their attention back to the true Source of all goodness and
happiness. But when they are shown
special Mercy-often more than they deserve-they forget themselves and attribute
it to their own cleverness, or to the stars, or to some false ideas to which
they pay court and worship, either to the exclusion of Allah or in addition to
the lip-worship which they pay to Allah. Their action in any case amounts to
gross ingratitude; but in the circumstances it looks as if they had gone out of
their way to show ingratitude.
30:31. நீங்கள் அவன் பக்கமே திரும்பியவர்களாக இருங்கள்; அவனிடம்
பயபக்தியுடன் நடந்து கொள்ளுங்கள்; தொழுகையையும் நிலை நிறுத்துங்கள்; இன்னும்
இணைவைப்போரில் நீங்களும் ஆகி விடாதீர்கள்.
30:33- When trouble touches men they
cry to their Lord turning back to Him in repentance: but when He gives them a
taste of Mercy as from Himself behold some of them pay part-worship to other
gods besides their Lord. 3545
30:33. மனிதர்களுக்கு (பசி, நோய், வறுமை, பஞ்சம்
போன்ற ஏதேனும்) சங்கடம் ஏற்பட்டால் அவர்கள் தங்கள் இறைவனிடம்
முகம் திருப்பி, (அதை
நீக்கியருள) அவனிடம் பிரார்த்தனை செய்கிறார்கள்;
பிறகு
அவன் அவர்களுக்கு தன்னிடமிருந்து ரஹ்மத்தை சுவைக்கச் செய்தால், அவர்களில்
ஒரு பிரிவினர் தம் இறைவனுக்கு இணை வைக்கின்றனர்
30:43- But set thou thy
face to the right Religion before there come from Allah the Day which there is
no chance of averting: on that Day shall men be divided (in two). 3559 3560
Note:3559- We should
recover the balance that has been upset by Evil and Falsehood before it is too late. For a Day will surely
come when true values will be restored
and all falsehood and evil will be destroyed.
Nothing but repentance and amendment can avert the consequences of Evil.
When the Day actually comes, Repentance will be too late: for the impassable barrier between Evil and
Good will have been fixed, and the chance of return to Allah’s pattern will
have been lost.
30:43. ஆகவே, அல்லாஹ்விடமிருந்து
எவரும் தடுத்து நிறுத்த முடியாத (அந்தத் தீர்ப்பு) நாள் வருவதற்கு முன்,
நீர் உம் முகத்தை நிலையான மார்க்கத்தில் சரிபடுத்துவீராக; அந்நாளில்
அவர்கள் (நல்லோர்,
தீயோர் எனப்) பிரிந்து விடுவார்கள்.
30:57- So on that Day no excuse of
theirs will avail the Transgressors nor will they be invited (then) to seek
grace (by repentance). 3575
Note:3575- It will be no use for
those who deliberately rejected the clearest warnings in Allah’s Message
to say:”Oh we did not realize this!” The
excuse will be false, and it would be unreasonable to suppose that they would
then be asked to seek Grace by repentance.
It will then be too late.
30:57. ஆகவே, அந்நாளில், அநியாயம்
செய்தவர்களுக்கு, அவர்கள் (கூறும்) புகழ்கள் ஒரு பயனும் தரா;
அன்றி, அவர்கள் (அல்லாஹ்வைத்) திருப்தி
செய்யவும் முடியாது.\
32:21- And indeed We will make them
taste of the Penalty of this (life) prior to the supreme Penalty in order that
they may (repent and) return. 3654
Note:3654- The final Penalty is to come in the
Hereafter. There is no doubt about
it. But before it comes, a minor Penalty
comes in this very life. It may be in some kind of misfortune, or it may be in
the pangs of a tortured conscience or secret sorrow. But this minor Penalty; may be really a
mercy, as it gives them a chance of repentance and amendment.
32:21. மேலும், அவர்கள்
(பாவங்களிலிருந்து) திரும்பி விடும் பொருட்டுப் பெரிய வேதனையை (மறுமையில் அவர்கள்) அடைவதற்கு முன்னதாகவே (இம்மையில்) சமீபமான ஒரு வேதனையை அவர்கள் அனுபவிக்கும்படிச்
செய்வோம்.
32:28- They say: "When will this
decision be if ye are telling the truth?" 3664
Note:3664- The Unbelievers may say:
“If all this which you say is true, tell us when this final decision between
right and wrong will come about.” The answer is: “If you mean that you will
postpone your repentance and reform till then, it will be no use: it will be
too late for repentance, and no respite will be granted then, this the Respite,
and this is your chance.”
32:28- 32:28. “நீங்கள்
உண்மையாளர்களாக இருந்தால் (வாக்களிக்கப்பட்ட) அந்த வெற்றித் (தீர்ப்பு நாள்) எப்பொழுது (வரும்)?” என்று அவர்கள் கூறுகிறார்கள்
33:17- Say: "Who is it that can
screen you from Allah if it be His wish to give you Punishment or to give you
Mercy?" Nor will they find for themselves besides Allah any protector or
helper. 3688
Note:3688- It is still worse if the
cowardice or desertion is shown in a Cause, which, because of the high issues
of truth and justice, may be called the Cause of Allah. How can any
one escape Allah’s Punishment? And in the same way, how can any one
prevent another from obtaining Allah’s Mercy by repentance and amendment? The
better path, therefore, is to stand firm in Allah’s Way, and if you fail
through human weakness, to repent and seek Allah’s Mercy.
33:17. “அல்லாஹ் உங்களுக்குக் கெடுதியை நாடினால், அவனிடமிருந்து
உங்களைப் பாதுகாப்பவர் யார்? அல்லது அவன் உங்களுக்கு ரஹ்மத்தை நாடினால் (அதை உங்களுக்குத் தடை செய்பவர் யார்?) அல்லாஹ்வையன்றி (வேறு யாரையும்) பாதுகாவலனாகவும்,
உதவியாளனாகவும் அவர்கள் காணமாட்டார்கள்” என்று
(நபியே!) நீர் கூறுவீராக.
33:24- That Allah may
reward the men of Truth for their Truth and punish the Hypocrites if that be
His Will or turn to them in Mercy: for Allah is Oft-Forgiving Most Merciful. 3698
Note:3698- Before Allah’s Mercy there
is always room for repentance and forgiveness, even after treason and crime;
but the forgiveness will be according to Allah’s Will and Plan, which will
judge the penitent’s sincerity and capacity for good to the nicest degree in
his favour.
33:24. உண்மையாளர்களுக்கு அவர்களின் உண்மைக்குரிய
கூலியை அல்லாஹ் திடமாக அளிப்பான்; அவன் நாடினால் முனாஃபிக்குகளை வேதனையும்
செய்வான், அல்லது
அவர்களை மன்னிப்பான் - நிச்சயமாக அல்லாஹ் மிகவும் மன்னிப்பவன்; மிக்க கிருபையுடையவன்.
33:45-46 -O Prophet! Truly We have
sent thee as a Witness a Bearer of Glad Tidings and a Warner 3734
46-And as one who invites to Allah's
(Grace) by His leave and as a Lamp spreading Light. 3735
Note:3735- See last note. The two other capacities in which the Prophet
was sent are here specified. (4) He comes as one who has a right to invite all
men to repentance and the forgiveness of sins: but he does this, not of his
authority, but by the permission authority given to him by Allah. This is said lest people may deify the
Prophet as they did with other Prophets before him. The personal responsibility of each
individual remains, but the Prophet can lead him on the Right and help him. (5)
The Prophet also comes as a Light or a Lamp;
(Siraj) to illuminate the whole world.
In lxxi 16 and elsewhere the same word (Siraj) is used for the sun. The comparison is apt. When the sun appears, all the lesser lights
pale before its light and the Message is Islam, i.e., of the Universal
Religion, is to diffuse Light everywhere.
33:45. நபியே! நாம் நிச்சயமாக உம்மைச் சாட்சியாகவும்; நன்மாராயங் கூறுபவராகவும், அச்சமூட்டி
எச்சரிப்பவராகவுமே அனுப்பியுள்ளோம்.
33:46. இன்னும் அல்லாஹ்வின் பால் (மனிதர்களை) - அவன் அனுமதிப்படி - அழைப்பவராகவும்;
பிரகாசிக்கும் விளக்காகவும் (உம்மை அனுப்பியுள்ளோம்.)
34:28- We have not sent thee but as a
universal (Messenger) to men giving them glad tidings and warning them (against
sin) but most men understand not. 3832
Note:3832- Allah’s Revelation,
through the holy Prophet, was not meant for one family or tribe, one race or
set of people. It was meant for all mankind, to whom, if they turn to Allah, it
is a Message of the glad tidings of His Mercy, and if they do not turn to Him,
lit is a warning against sin and the inevitable Punishment. That the Punishment does not come immediately
(as far as they perceive) is no reason for doubting it. It has been declared in clear and
unequivocal terms, and nothing can be more certain. Why delay? Why ask carping questions? Why not
profit by the Message, turn to Allah in repentance, and bring forth the fruits
of righteousness?
34:28. இன்னும், (நபியே!) நாம் உம்மை மனித குலம் முழுமைக்கும் நன்மாராயங்
கூறுபவராகவும் அச்சமூட்டி எச்சரிக்கை செய்பவராகவுமே யன்றி (வேறெவ்வாரும்) அனுப்பவில்லை;
ஆனால் மனிதர்களில் பெரும்பாலோர் (இதை) அறியமாட்டார்கள்
34:9- See they not what is before
them and behind them of the sky and the earth? If We wished We could cause the
earth to swallow them up or cause a piece of the sky to fall upon them. Verily
in this is a Sign for every devotee that turns to Allah (in repentance). 3796 3797 3798
34:9. வானத்திலும், பூமியிலும்
அவர்களுக்கு முன்னாலுள்ளதையும் அவர்களுக்குப் பின்னாலுள்ளதையும் அவர்கள் பார்க்க
வில்லையா? நாம்
நாடினால் அவர்களை பூமியினுள் சொருகி விடுவோம்; அல்லது
வானத்திலிருந்து அவர்கள் மீது ஒரு துண்டை விழச்செய்து (அவர்களை அழித்து) விடுவோம்;
(அல்லாஹ்வையே) முன்னோக்கி நிற்கும் ஒவ்வோர் அடியானுக்கும்
நிச்சயமாக இதில் ஓர் அத்தாட்சி இருக்கிறது.
35:23- Thou art no other than a
warner. 3906
Note:3906-The function of a Prophet
is to preach Allah’s Truth, to point out the right Way, to show men the need of
repentance, and to warn them against the dangers which they incur by living a
life of evil. He cannot compel them to
accept the Truth or listen to the Message.
39:17- Those who eschew evil and fall
not into its worship and turn to Allah (in repentance) for them is Good News:
so announce the Good News to My Servants 4268
Note:4268- There is always the danger
that Evil may seize us even if we approach it out of mere curiosity. If we take
an interest in it we may become its worshippers or slaves. The wise man eschews it altogether, and so he
enrols among the Servants of Allah, and gets the good news of His Mercy and
good Pleasure.
39:17. எவர்கள் ஷைத்தான்களை வணங்குவதைத் தவிர்த்துக்
கொண்டு, அவற்றிலிருந்து
விலகி முற்றிலும் அல்லாஹ்வின் பால் முன்னோக்கியிருக்கிறார்களோ, அவர்களுக்குத்
தான் நன்மாராயம்; ஆகவே (என்னுடைய) நல்லடியார்களுக்கு நன்மாராயங் கூறுவீராக!
39:53-54-Say: "O my Servants who
have transgressed against their souls! Despair not of the Mercy of Allah: for
Allah forgives all sins: for He is Oft-Forgiving Most Merciful. 4324
54-"Turn ye to your Lord (in
repentance) and bow to His (Will) before the Penalty comes on you: after that
ye shall not be helped. 4325
Note:4324-Forgives all sins: i.e., on
sincere repentance and amendment of conduct.
Note:4325-The exhortation in brief
is: “Repent and work righteousness, before it becomes too late”. No help will
come to you when the Judgment is actually established and you stand before Allah.
39:53. “என் அடியார்களே! (உங்களில்) எவரும் வரம்பு மீறி தமக்குத்தாமே
தீங்கிழைத்துக் கொண்ட போதிலும், அல்லாஹ்வுடைய ரஹ்மத்தில் அவர் நம்பிக்கையிழக்க
வேண்டாம் - நிச்சயமாக அல்லாஹ் பாவங்கள் யாவையும்
மன்னிப்பான் - நிச்சயமாக அவன் மிக்க மன்னிப்பவன்; மிக்கக் கருணையுடையவன்” (என்று
நான் கூறியதை நபியே!) நீர் கூறுவீராக.
39:54. ஆகவே (மனிதர்களே!) உங்களுக்கு வேதனை வரும் முன்னரே நீங்கள், உங்கள் இறைவன் பால் திரும்பி, அவனுக்கே
முற்றிலும் வழிபடுங்கள்; (வேதனை வந்துவிட்டால்) பின்பு நீங்கள் உதவி செய்யப்பட மாட்டீர்கள்
4:146-Except for those who repent
mend (their life) hold fast to Allah and purify their religion as in Allah's
sight: if so they will be (numbered) with the believers. And soon will Allah
grant to the believers a reward of immense value. 652
Note:652- Even Hypocrites can obtain
forgiveness, on four conditions:
1). sincere repentance, which
purifies their mind;
2). amendment of their conduct, which
purifies their outer life;
3). steadfastness and devotion to
Allah, which strengthens their faith and protects them from the assaults of
evil, and
4). sincerity in their religion, or
their whole inner being, which brings them as full members into the goodly
Fellowship of Faith.
4:146. யார் மன்னிப்புக் கேட்டு சீர்திருந்தி, அல்லாஹ்வை
(தம் நற்செய்கைகள் மூலம்) கெட்டியாகப் பிடித்து, தங்களுடைய
சன்மார்க்கத்தை அல்லாஹ்வுக்காகத் தூய்மையாக்கியும் கொண்டார்களோ அவர்கள்
முஃமின்களுடன் இருப்பார்கள்; மேலும் அல்லாஹ் முஃமின்களுக்கு மகத்தான
நற்கூலியை அளிப்பான்.
4:17-18-Allah accepts the repentance
of those who do evil in ignorance and repent soon afterwards; to them
will Allah turn in mercy; for Allah is full of knowledge and wisdom.
18-Of no effect is the repentance of
those who continue to do evil until death faces one of them and he says
"Now have I repented indeed"; nor of those who die rejecting faith:
for them have We prepared a punishment most grievous. 526
4:17. எவர்கள்
அறியாமையினால் தீமை செய்துவிட்டு, பின்னர் விரைவில் மன்னிப்புத் தேடி
கொள்கிறார்களோ அவர்களுக்குத்தான் அல்லாஹ்விடத்தில் மன்னிப்பு உண்டு. அல்லாஹ் அவர்களின் மன்னிப்பை ஏற்றுக்கொள்கிறான். இன்னும் அல்லாஹ் நன்கறிந்தோனும். ஞானம் உடையோனுமாக இருக்கின்றான்.
4:18. இன்னும்
எவர்கள் தீவினைகளைத் (தொடர்ந்து) செய்து கொண்டேயிருந்து,
முடிவில் அவர்களை மரணம் நெருங்கிய போது, “நிச்சயமாக
இப்பொழுது நான் (பாவங்களுக்காக
வருந்தி) மன்னிப்புத் தேடுகிறேன்” என்று கூறுகின்றார்களோ, அவர்களுக்கும், எவர்
காஃபிர்களாகவே மரிக்கிறார்களோ அவர்களுக்கும் பாவமன்னிப்பு இல்லை, இத்தகையோருக்குத்
துன்பம் கொடுக்கும் வேதனையையே நாம் சித்தப்படுத்தி வைத்துள்ளோம்.
4:48- Allah forgiveth not that
partners should be set up with him; but He forgiveth anything else to whom He
pleaseth; to set up partners with Allah is to devise a sin most heinous indeed. 569
Note:569- Just as in an earthly
kingdom the worst crime is that of treason, as it cuts at the very existence of
the State, so in the Divine Kingdom, the unforgivable sin is that of
contumacious treason against Allah by putting up Allah’s creatures in rivalry
against Him. This is rebellion against
the Creator. It is what Plato would call
the “lie in the soul.”But even here, if the rebellion is through ignorance, and
is followed b y sincere repentance and amendment, Allah’ Mercy is always open.
4:48. நிச்சயமாக
அல்லாஹ் தனக்கு இணைவைப்பதை மன்னிக்கமாட்டான்; இதைத்தவிர, (மற்ற) எதையும் தான் நாடியவர்களுக்கு மன்னிப்பான்; யார் அல்லாஹ்வுக்கு இணைவைக்கிறார்களோ அவர்கள்
நிச்சயமாக மிகவும் பெரிய பாவத்தையே கற்பனை செய்கின்றார்கள்.
40:2-The
revelation of this Book is from Allah Exalted in Power Full of Knowledge 4357
40:3-Who forgiveth Sin accepteth
Repentance is strict in Punishment and hath a Long Reach (in all things). There
is no god but He: to Him is the Final Goal. 4358
Note:4358-Allah’s knowledge is
supreme and all-reaching. But there are
other attributes of His, which concern us even more intimately, e.g., He
forgives sin and accepts our repentance when it is sincere and results in our
change of heart and life: but He is also just, and strict in punishment; and so
no loophole will be left for Evil except in repentance. And further, all His attributes
reach forward to every thing: His Mercy as well as His Knowledge and Justice;
His Bounties as well as His Punishments.
40:42- "Ye do call upon me to
blaspheme against Allah and to join with Him Partners of whom I have no
knowledge; and I call you to the Exalted in Power Who forgives again and
again!" 4415
Note:4415- The worship of Pharaoh was
blasphemy, but it had many sides, including the worship of heroes,. animals, powers of good and evil in
nature, and idols of all kinds. It is
this comprehensive cult which required warnings again and again, but Allah is
Exalted in Power, and gives such forgiveness on repentance.
40:42. “நான் அல்லாஹ்வுக்கு (மாறு செய்து அவனை) நிராகரிக்க
வேண்டுமென்றும், எனக்கு எதைப்பற்றி அறிவு இல்லையோ அதை நான்
அவனுக்கு இணைவைக்க வேண்டுமென்றும் என்னை அழைக்கின்றீர்கள். ஆனால் நானோ யாவரையும் மிகைத்தவனும், மிக மன்னிப்பவனுமாகியவனிடம் அழைக்கின்றேன்.
41:6- Say thou: "I am but a man
like you: it is revealed to me by inspiration that your Allah is One Allah: so
stand true to Him and ask for His forgiveness." And woe to those who join
gods with Allah 4467 4468
Note:4467- The reply is in effect:
that the bringer of the Message is not an angel nor a god, and so there can and
ought to be no barrier between him and
his hearers; but he has been chosen to bring a Message of Truth and Hope to
them; they should accept the Gospel of Unity, and by Repentance, obtain Allah’s
Grace and Forgiveness.
41:6. “நான்
உங்களைப் போன்ற ஒரு மனிதன்தான் - ஆனால் எனக்கு வஹீ அறிவிக்கப்படுகிறது; நிச்சயமாக
உங்களுடைய நாயன் ஒருவனேதான், ஆகவே அவனையே நோக்கி நீங்கள் உறுதியாக நிற்பீர்களாக; இன்னும், அவனிடம்
நீங்கள் மன்னிப்புக் கேளுங்கள் - அன்றியும் (அவனுக்கு) இணை வைப்போருக்குக் கேடுதான்” என்று (நபியே!நீர்கூறும்).
42:25- He is the One that accepts
repentance from His Servants and forgives sins: and He knows all that ye
do. 4563
Note:4563- Whatever the sin, Allah’s
Mercy is open to sincere Repentance, at all times, until the decree of
condemnation issues.
42:25. அவன்தான் தன் அடியார்களின் தவ்பாவை - பாவ மன்னிப்புக் கோறுதலை - ஏற்றுக் கொள்கிறான்;
(அவர்களின்) குற்றங்களை மன்னிக்கிறான். இன்னும்,
நீங்கள் செய்வதை அவன் நன்கறிகிறான்.
50:32- (A voice will say:) "This
is what was promised for you for everyone who
turned (to Allah) in sincere repentance who kept (his law). 4969
Note:4969- The description of the
Righteous is given in four masterly clauses:
1). those who turned away from Evil
in sincere repentance;
2). those whose new life was good and
righteous;
3). those who in their innermost
hearts and in their most secret doings were actuated by Allah-fearing love, the
fear that is akin to love in remembering Allah under His title of “Most
Gracious”; and
4). who gave up their whole heart and
being to Him.
50:32. “இது தான் உங்களுக்கு வாக்களிக்கப்பட்டதா(ன சுவர்க்கமா)கும்;
எப்பொழுதும் இறைவனையே நோக்கி, (பாவத்தை
தவிர்த்துப்) பேணி நடந்த ஒவ்வொருவருக்கும் (இது உரியது).”
66:8- O ye who believe! turn to Allah
with sincere repentance: in the hope that your Lord will remove from you your
ills and admit you to Gardens beneath which Rivers flow the Day that Allah will
not permit to be humiliated the Prophet and those who believe with him. Their
Light will run forward before them and by their right hands while they say
"Our Lord! perfect our Light for us and grant us Forgiveness; for Thou has
power over all things."
66:8. ஈமான்
கொண்டவர்களே! கலப்பற்ற (மனதோடு) அல்லாஹ்விடம் தவ்பா செய்து, பாவமன்னிப்புப் பெறுங்கள்; உங்கள்
இறைவன் உங்கள் பாவங்களை உங்களை விட்டுப் போக்கி உங்களைச் சுவனச் சோலைகளில்
பிரவேசிக்கச் செய்வான்; அவற்றின் கீழே ஆறுகள் (சதா) ஓடிக் கொண்டே இருக்கும்;
(தன்) நபியையும் அவருடன் ஈமான் கொண்டார்களே
அவர்களையும் அந்நாளில் அல்லாஹ் இழிவுபடுத்தமாட்டான்;
(அன்று ஈடேற்றம் பெற்ற) அவர்களுடைய பிரகாசம் (ஒளி) அவர்களுக்கு
முன்னும் அவர்களுடைய வலப்புறத்திலும் விரைந்து கொண்டிருக்கும்; அவர்கள்
“எங்கள்
இறைவா! எங்களுக்கு,
எங்களுடைய பிரகாசத்தை நீ முழுமையாக்கி வைப்பாயாக! எங்களுக்கு மன்னிப்பும் அருள்வாயாக! நிச்சயமாக நீ எல்லாப் பொருட்கள் மீதும் பேராற்றலுடையவன்” என்று கூறி(ப் பிரார்த்தனை
செய்து) கொண்டு இருப்பார்கள்.
73:19- Verily this is an Admonition: Therefore whoso will let him take a
(straight) path to his Lord!
Note:5770- This is no empty
threat. It is an admonition for your
good. If you have the will, you can at once come for the Grace ad Mercy of
Allah, and obtain it. For Repentance and Amendment are the straight Way to the
nearness of Allah.
73:19. நிச்சயமாக இது நினைவூட்டும் நல்லுபதேசமாகும்; ஆகவே
எவர் விரும்புகிறாரோ அவர் தம்முடைய இறைவனிடம் (செல்லும் இவ்)வழியை எடுத்துக் கொள்வாராக.
9:112- Those that turn (to Allah) in
repentance: that serve Him and praise Him; that wander in devotion to the Cause
of Allah; that bow down and prostrate themselves in prayer; that enjoin good
and forbid evil; and observe the limits set by Allah; (these do rejoice). So
proclaim the glad tidings to the Believers. 1363
Note:1363- We are to rejoice that by
giving up such small things as ourselves and our possessions we are to be rewarded with such a great thing as the eternal life of felicity. The truly righteous, whose lives in various aspects are described in the
verse, do so rejoice. The good news is
to be proclaimed to all Believers,
including the weakest among us, so that they may profit by that example.
9:112. மன்னிப்புக்கோரி மீண்டவர்கள், (அவனை) வணங்குபவர்கள்,
(அவனைப்) புகழ்பவர்கள்,
நோன்பு நோற்பவர்கள், ருகூஃ
செய்பவர்கள்,
ஸுஜூது செய்பவர்கள் (தொழுபவர்கள்), நன்மை செய்ய ஏவுபவர்கள், தீமையை
விட்டுவிலக்குபவர்கள். அல்லாஹ்வின் வரம்புகளைப் பேணிப்
பாதுகாப்பவர்கள் - இத்தகைய (உண்மை) முஃமின்களுக்கு (நபியே!) நீர் நன்மாராயம் கூறுவீராக!
9:126-See they not that they are
tried every year once or twice? Yet they turn not in repentance and they take
no heed. 1377
9:126. ஒவ்வோர் ஆண்டிலும், ஒரு
முறையோ, இரு
முறையோ அவர்கள் சோதிக்கப்படுகிறார்கள்” என்பதை அவர்கள் காணவில்லையா? அப்படியிருந்தும்
அவர்கள் தவ்பா செய்து மீள்வதுமில்லை;(அது பற்றி) நினைவு கூர்ந்து நல்லுணர்ச்சி பெறுவதுமில்லை.
Narrated Abu Hurairah
Shahih Al-Bukhari: The Prophet said, "The one who commits an illegal sexual
intercourse is not a believer at the time of committing illegal sexual
intercourse and a thief is not a believer at the time of committing theft and a
drinker of alcoholic drink is not a believer at the time of drinking. Yet,
(the gate of) repentance is open thereafter."
Narrated AbuHurayrah
Shahih Muslim: Allah's Apostle (peace be upon him) said: He who seeks repentance (from
the Lord ) before the rising of the sun from the west (before the Day of
Resurrection), Allah turns to him with Mercy.
Narrated Abdullah ibn Umar
Transmitted by Tirmidhi.: The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: "Allah, the Lord of honour and
glory, will accept the repentance of His servant till his death-rattle
begins."
Sahih
Al-Bukhari-1.102
Narrated Abu Hurairah: Allah's
Apostle said, "(The performance of) 'Umra is an expiation for the sins committed (between it and the previous one). And the reward of Hajj
Mabrur (the one accepted by Allah) is nothing except Paradise."
Sahih Al-Bukhari
Hadith 1.504
Narrated Ibn Masud: A man kissed a
woman (unlawfully) and then went to the Prophet and informed him. Allah revealed:
And offer prayers perfectly At the two ends of the day And in some hours of the night (i.e. the five
compulsory prayers). Verily! good deeds remove (annul) the evil deeds (small
sins) (11.114). The man asked Allah's Apostle, "Is it for me?" He
said, "It is for all my followers."
Narrated Abu Huraira
Sahih Al-Bukhari
3.231: The Prophet said, "Whoever fasted the month of Ramadan
out of sincere Faith (i.e. belief) and hoping for a reward from Allah, then all
his past sins will be forgiven, and whoever stood for the prayers in the night
of Qadr out of sincere Faith and hoping for a reward from Allah, then all his
previous si ns will be
forgiven ."
Sahih Al-Bukhari-2.596
Narrated Abu Huraira: The Prophet (p.b.u.h) said, "Whoever
performs Hajj for Allah's pleasure and does not have
sexual relations with his wife, and does not do evil or sins then he will
return (after Hajj free from all sins) as if he were born anew."
Narra ted Salman Al Farsi
Sahih Al-Bukhari-2.33:
Allah's Apostle (p.b.u.h) said,
"Anyone who takes a bath on Friday and cleans himself as much as he can
and puts oil (on his hair) or scents himself; and then proceeds for the prayer
and does not force his way between two persons (assembled in the mosque for the
Friday prayer), and prays as much as
is written for him and remains quiet when the Imam delivers the Khutba, all his sins in between
the present and the last Friday will be forgiven."
Sahih Al-Bukhari-1.98
Narrated Abu Huraira: I
said: "O Allah's Apostle! Who will be the luckiest person, who will gain
your intercession on the Day of Resurrection?"
Allah's Apostle said: O Abu Huraira! "I have thought that none will ask me
about it before you as I know your longing for the (learning of) Hadiths. The
luckiest person who will have my intercession on the Day of Resurrection will
be the one who said sincerely from the bottom of his heart "None has the
right to be worshipped but Allah." And 'Umar bin 'Abdul 'Aziz wrote to Abu
Bakr bin Hazm, "Look for the knowledge of Hadith and get it written, as I
am afraid that religious knowledge will vanish and the religious learned men
will pass away (die). Do not accept anything save the Hadiths of the Prophet.
Circulate knowledge and teach the ignorant, for knowledge does not vanish
except when it is kept secretly (to oneself)."
Narrated Abu Huraira
Sahih Al Bukhari
Hadith 1.762: Allah's Apostle said, "When the Imam says, "Sami'
a-l-lahu Liman hamida," you should say, "Allahumma Rabbana
laka-l-hamd." And if the saying of any one of you coincides with that of
the angels, all his past sins will be forgiven."
Sahih Al Bukhari
Hadith 1.165
Narrated Humran: (the freed slave of 'Uthman bin 'Affan) I saw
'Uthman bin 'Affan asking (for a tumbler of water) to perform ablution (and
when it was brought) he poured water from it over his hands and washed them
thrice and then put his right hand in the water container and rinsed his mouth
and washed his nose by putting water in it and then blowing it out. Then he
washed his face thrice and (then) forearms up to the elbows thrice, then passed
his wet hands over his head and then washed each foot thrice. After that
'Uthman said, "I saw the Prophet performing ablution like
this of mine, and he said, 'If anyone performs ablution like that of mine and
offers a two-rak'at prayer during which he does not think of anything else (not
related to the present prayer) then his past sins will be forgiven.' "
Sahih Al Bukhari
Hadith 1.747
Narrated Abu Huraira: The
Prophet said, "Say 'Amin' when the Imam says it and if the Amin of
any one of you coincides with that of the angels then all his past sins will be
forgiven." Ibn Shihab said,
"Allah's Apostle
used to say 'Amin.' "
" Narrated Um Atiya
Sahih Al Bukhari
Hadith 2.88: We used to be ordered to come out on the Day of 'Id and even bring out the virgin girls
from their houses and menstruating women so that they might stand behind the
men and say Takbir along with them and invoke Allah along with them and hope
for the blessings of that day and for purification from sins.
Narrated Abu Huraira
Sahih Al Bukhari Hadith 8.414: Allah's Apostle said,
"Whoever says, 'Subhan Allah wa bihamdihi,' one
hundred times a day, will
be forgiven all his sins even if they were as much as the foam of the
sea."
Narrated Ibn Masud
Sahih Al Bukhari Hadith 7.571: I visited the Prophet while he
was having a high fever. I touched him and said, "You have a very high
fever" He said, "Yes, as much fever as two of you may have." I
said, "You will have a double reward?" He said, "Yes No Muslim
is afflicted with hurt caused by disease or
some other inconvenience, but that Allah will remove his sins as a tree sheds
its leaves."
Narrated 'Aisha
Sahih Al Bukhari
Hadith 7.544: (the wife of the Prophet) Allah's Apostle said, "No calamity befalls a Muslim but that Allah expiates
some of his sins because of it, even though it were the prick he receives from
a thorn."
Narrated Abu Huraira
Sahih Al Bukhari
Hadith 7.577: I heard Allah's Apostle saying, "The good deeds
of any person will not make him enter Paradise." (i.e., None can enter Paradise through his
good deeds.) They (the Prophet's companions) said, "Not even you, O
Allah's Apostle?" He said, "Not even myself, unless Allah bestows His favor and mercy on
me." So be moderate in your religious deeds and do the deeds that are
within your ability: and none of you should wish for death, for if he is a good
doer, he may increase his good deeds, and if he is an evil doer, he may repent
to Allah.
2:221- Narrated Ibn
Abbas
Shahih Al Bukhari Hadith
When the Prophet got up at night to offer the Tahajjud
prayer, he used to say:xxxxxxxx : Please forgive me my previous and future sins; And whatever I concealed or revealed
xxxx.
Narrated Aisha-5:462.
Xxxxxxx O 'Aisha! I have been informed so-and-so about you;
if you are innocent, then soon Allah will reveal your innocence, and if you have committed a sin, then repent to Allah and ask Him
for forgiveness for when a slave confesses his sins and asks Allah for
forgiveness, Allah accepts his repentance.' Xxxx
9:482 -Narrated Ibn Abbas
The Prophet
used to invoke Allah at night, saying, "O Allah: All the Praises are for
You: You are the Lord of the Heavens and the Earth. All the Praises are for
You; You are the Maintainer of the Heaven and the Earth and whatever is in them.
All the Praises are for You; You are the Light of the Heavens and the Earth.
Your Word is the Truth, and Your Promise is the Truth, and the Meeting with You
is the Truth, and Paradise is the Truth, and the (Hell) Fire is the Truth, and
the Hour is the Truth. O Allah! I surrender myself to You, and I believe in You
and I depend upon You, and I repent to
You and with You (Your evidences) I stand against my opponents, and to You
I leave the judgment (for those who refuse my message). O Allah! Forgive me my sins that I did in the past or will do in the future, and also the sins I did
in secret or in public. You are my only God (Whom I worship) and there
is no other God for me (i.e. I worship none but You)."
Narrated AbuHurayrah
Al Tirmidhi 1457: Allah's
Messenger (peace be upon him) said, "Everyone who dies will repent."
He was asked the nature of their repentance and replied, "If one did what
was good he will repent of not having done more, and if one did evil he will
repent of not having restrained himself." Tirmidhi transmitted it.
Narrated AbuMusa
Sahih Muslim 1288:
Allah's Apostle (peace be upon him) said that Allah, the Exalted and
Glorious, stretches out His Hand during the night so that the people repent
for the fault committed from dawn till dusk and He stretches out His Hand
during the day so that the people may repent for the fault committed from dusk
to dawn (He would accept repentance) before the sun rises in the west (before
the Day of Resurrection). A hadith like this has been narrated on the authority
of Shu'bah with the same chain of transmitters.
33:17 - Say:
"Who is it that can screen you from Allah if it be His wish to give you
Punishment or to give you Mercy?" Nor will they find for themselves
besides Allah any protector or helper. 3688
Note:3688- It is
still worse if the cowardice of desertion is shown in a Cause, which, because
of the high issues of truth and justice, may be called the Cause of Allah. How can any one escape Allah’s Punishment?
And in the same way, how can any one prevent another from obtaining Allah’s
Mercy by repentance and amendment? The
better path, therefore, is to stand firm in Allah’s Way, and if you fail
through human weakness, to repent and seek Allah’s Mercy.
33:17. “அல்லாஹ்
உங்களுக்குக் கெடுதியை நாடினால், அவனிடமிருந்து உங்களைப் பாதுகாப்பவர் யார்? அல்லது
அவன் உங்களுக்கு ரஹ்மத்தை நாடினால் (அதை உங்களுக்குத் தடை செய்பவர் யார்?) அல்லாஹ்வையன்றி (வேறு யாரையும்) பாதுகாவலனாகவும்,
உதவியாளனாகவும் அவர்கள் காணமாட்டார்கள்” என்று

68:35
أَفَنَجْعَلُ الْمُسْلِمِينَ كَالْمُجْرِمِينَ
68:35 - Shall We then treat the People of Faith like
the People of Sin? 5618
5618 The spiritual arrogance which rejects faith in Allah is
perhaps the worst Sin, because it makes itself impervious to the Mercy of
Allah, as a bed of clay is impervious to the absorption of water. It sets up
its own standards and its own will, but how can it measure or bind the Will of
Allah? It sets up its own fetishes,-idols, priests, gods, or godlings. The
fetishes may be even God-given gifts or faculties. Intellect or Science, if
pushed up to the position of idols. If they are made rivals to Allah, question
them: Will they solve Allah's mysteries, or even the mysteries of Life and
Soul? (68.35)
68:36
مَا لَكُمْ كَيْفَ تَحْكُمُونَ

68:43- خَـشِعَةً أَبْصَـرُهُمْ تَرْهَقُهُمْ ذِلَّةٌ وَقَدْ كَانُواْ
يُدْعَوْنَ إِلَى السُّجُودِ وَهُمْ سَـلِمُونَ
68:43-Their eyes will be cast down ignominy will cover
them; seeing that they had been summoned aforetime to bow in adoration while
they were whole (and had refused). 5623 5624
Note: 5623- Their past memories, combined with their present , position will then fill them with a
sense of the deepest dismay and humiliation.
Note: 5624-Salimun: whole, in full possession of the
power of judgment and will; not constrained, as they now will
be , by the Punishment staring them full
in the face.
68:43. அவர்களுடைய பார்வைகள் கீழ் நோக்கியவையாக இருக்கும் நிலையில்

அழைக்கப்பட்டுக் கொண்டுதானிருந்தனர். (ஆனால் அப்போது அலட்சியமாக இருந்தனர்.)
فَذَرْنِى وَمَن

68:44-
Then leave Me alone with such as reject this message: by degrees shall We
punish them from directions they perceive not.
5626
Note:5626- We must not be impatient if we see the wicked
flourish. It may be that the very
appearance of flourishing here may be a part of the Punishment. There may be an eventual punishment by a sort
of Cataclysm; but evolutionary punishment is gradual and sure. Allah may punish wicked people by granting
them respite and providing them worldly benefits in abundance, which encourages
them in sin and transgression. So when
they are finally seized by the Wrath of Allah they are caught suddenly and
utterly unprepared, as it were, red handed while engrossed in disbelief, a life
of impiety and open revolt against their Lord!
68:44. எனவே, என்னையும், இந்தச் செய்தியைப் பொய்யாக்குவோரையும் விட்டு விடுவீராக!
அவர்களே அறியாத விதத்தில் படிப்படியாகப் பிடிப்போம்
70:17
تَدْعُو مَنْ أَدْبَرَ وَتَوَلَّىٰ
70:17 - Inviting (all) such as turn their backs and turn away their
faces (from the Right) 5687
5687 The analysis of sin is given in four master-strokes, of
which the first two refer to the will or psychology of the sinner, and the last
two to the use he makes of the good things of this life. (1) Sin begins with turning your back to the Right, refusing to face
it squarely, running away from it whether from cowardice or indifference. (2)
But Conscience and the sense of Right will try to prevent the flight; the Grace
of Allah will meet the sinner at all corners and try to reclaim him; the
hardened sinner will deliberately turn away his face from it, insult it, and
reject it. (3) The result of this psychology will be that he will abandon
himself to greed, to the correction of riches, and the acquisition of material
advantages to which he is not entitied; this may involve hypocrisy, fraud, and
crime. (4) Having acquired the material advantages, the next step will be to
keep others out of them, to prevent hoarded wealth from fructifying by
circulation, to conceal it from envy or spite. This is the spiritual Rake's Progress.
(70.17)
NOTE: (1) above –in refusing to face it squarely – some turn indignant, resent
and retort whlen confronted with the
TRUTH:- “You mind your own business and I mind my business, you do what you
want and I will do what I want!” Yet some others
say:-“Just leave me alone, I came to the mosque to get some blessings, why
argue over these matters and disturb me”? and so on.( They are Vainglorious
Boasters who resent correction even if they are wrong!
5805 it is strange that men should not heed a plain warning,
but go on as if they were thoughtless and obstinate asses stampeding from a
lion. Instead of heeding the warning, they try to avoid it. They are frightened
at Allah's Word. (74.49)
5737 Possibly, from this world's standards, it may be that a
believer suffers for his Faith. He may be laughed at, persecuted, and actually
hurt, "in mind, body, or estate". But he is not perturbed. He takes
it all cheerfully, because he knows that when his full account is made up-real
gain against apparent loss,-he is a gainer rather than a loser. And his Faith
tells him that Allah is a just God, and will never allow him to suffer any
injustice, or permit the account of his merit to appear one whit shorter than
it is. (72.13)
5777 This emphasizes the need of Allah's Grace. Whatever good
we do, our own merits are comparatively small. Allah's Grace must lift us up
and blot out our shortcomings. Even in piety there may be an arrogance which
may become a sin. We should always seek Allah's Mercy in all humility. (73.20)
5738 Any one who
responds to true Guidance, and submits his will to Allah, finds that he makes
rapid progress in the path of right conduct and right life. He gets more and
more assurance that his destination is the Garden of Bliss. (72.14)
96:13
أَرَأَيْتَ إِن كَذَّبَ وَتَوَلَّىٰ
96:13 - Seest thou if he
denies (Truth) and turns away? 6212
6212 The usual trick of
the ungodly is to refuse to face Truth. If they are placed in a corner, they
deny what is obvious to reasonable men, and turn their backs. (96.13)
10:41
10:41 - If they charge thee with falsehood say: "My work to me and yours to you! Ye are free
from responsibility for what I do and I for what ye do!" 1433
1433 When the Prophet of Allah is rejected and charged with
falsehood, he does not give up his work, but continues to teach and preach his
Message. He can well say to those who interfere with him: "Mind your own
business: supposing your charge against me is true, you incur no
responsibility: I have to answer for it before Allah: and if I do my duty and
deliver my Message, your rejection does not make me liable for your
wrong-doing: you will have to answer before Allah." (10.41)
10:41. உம்மை அவர்கள் பொய்ப்படுத்தினால் எனது செயல்
எனக்கு; உங்கள்
செயல் உங்களுக்கு. நான் செய்வதை விட்டும்

கூறுவீராக.
73:10
وَاصْبِرْ عَلَىٰ مَا يَقُولُونَ وَاهْجُرْهُمْ
هَجْرًا جَمِيلًا
73:10 - And have patience with what they say and
leave them with noble (dignity).

(உமக்கெதிராகக்) கூறுவதைப் பொறுத்துக் கொள்வீராக; மேலும், அழகான

விடுவீராக
109:1-
قُلْ
يَا أَيُّهَا الْكَافِرُونَ
109:1 - Say: O ye that reject Faith! 6289
109:2- لَا أَعْبُدُ مَا تَعْبُدُونَ
109:2 - I worship not that which ye worship
109:3 - وَلَا أَنتُمْ عَابِدُونَ مَا أَعْبُدُ
109:3 -Nor will ye worship that which I worship. 6290
109:4-
وَلَا أَنَا عَابِدٌ مَّا عَبَدتُّمْ
109:4 -And I will not worship that which ye have been wont to
worship
109:5 - وَلَا
أَنتُمْ عَابِدُونَ مَا أَعْبُدُ
109:5 -Nor will ye worship that which I worship.
109:6- لَكُمْ
دِينُكُمْ وَلِيَ دِينِ
109:6 -To you be your Way and to me mine. 6291
6289 Faith is a matter
of personal conviction, and does not depend on worldly motives. Worship should
depend on pure and sincere Faith, but often does not: for motives of worldly
gain, ancestral custom, social conventions or imitative instincts, or a
lethargic instinct to shrink from enquiring into the real significance of
solemn acts and the motives behind them, reduce a great deal of the world's
worship to sin, selfishness, or futility. Symbolic idols may themselves be
merely instruments for safeguarding the privileges of a selfish priestly class,
or the ambitions, greed, or lust of private individuals. Hence the insistence
of Islam and its Prophet on the pure worship of the One True God. The Prophet
firmly resisted all appeals to worldly motives, and stood firm to his Message
of eternal Unity. (109.1)
57:23 - In order that ye may not despair over matters
that pass you by nor exult over favors bestowed upon you. For
Allah loveth not any vainglorious boaster 5310
5310 In the external
world, what people may consider misfortune or good fortune may both turn out to
be illusory,-in Kipling's words, "both imposters just the same". The
righteous man does not grumble if some one else has possessions, nor exult if
he has them. He does not covet and he does not boast. If he has any advantages,
he shares them with other people, as he considers them not due to his own
merits, but as gifts of Allah. (57.23)
5311 Neither the
Covetous nor the Boasters have any place in the Good Pleasure of Allah. The
Covetous are particularly insidious, as their avarice and niggardliness not
only keep back the gifts of Allah from men, but their pernicious example dries
up the streams of Charity in others. (57.24)
57:23. உங்களை
விட்டுத் தவறிப்போன ஒன்றின் மீது நீங்கள் துக்கப்படாமல் இருக்கவும், அவன்
உங்களுக்கு அளித்தவற்றின் மீது நீங்கள் (அதிகம்) மகிழாதிருக்கவும் (இதனை உங்களுக்கு அல்லாஹ் அறிவிக்கிறான்); கர்வமுடையவர்கள், தற்பெருமை
உடையவர்கள் எவரையும் அல்லாஹ் நேசிப்பதில்லை.
57:24-Such persons as are covetous and
commend covetousness to men. And if any turn back (from Allah's Way) verily Allah is free of all
needs worthy of all praise. 5311 5312
57:24. எவர்கள்
உலோபித்தனம் செய்து உலோபித்தனம் செய்யுமாறு மனிதர்களையும் ஏவுகிறார்களோ; எவர்
(அல்லாஹ்வின் கட்டளைகளைப்) புறக்கணிக்கிறாரோ - (இவர்களே நஷ்டவாளிகள்.) நிச்சயமாக அல்லாஹ் (எவரிடமும்) தேவையற்றவன். புகழ் மிக்கவன்
71:5- قَالَ رَبِّ إِنِّي دَعَوْتُ قَوْمِي لَيْلًا وَنَهَارًا
71:5 – ( Noah
) He said: "O my
Lord! I have called to my People night and day:
71:5. பின்னர் அவர்: “என்
இறைவா! நிச்சயமாக,
நான் என் சமூகத்தாரை இரவிலும், பகலிலும் (நேர்வழியின்பால்) அழைத்தேன்.
71:6- فَلَمْ
يَزِدْهُمْ دُعَائِي إِلَّا فِرَارًا
71:6 - "But my call only increases (their) flight (from the
Right)." 5709
5719 A) Sinners always resent it as a reproach that righteous
men should speak to them for their own good. They prefer smooth flatterers,
70:40- فَلَا أُقْسِمُ بِرَبِّ الْمَشَارِقِ وَالْمَغَارِبِ إِنَّا لَقَادِرُونَ
70:40 - Now I do call to

நிச்சயமாக நாம் (விரும்பியவாறு செய்ய) ஆற்றலுடையோம்.
70:41- عَلَىٰ
أَن نُّبَدِّلَ خَيْرًا مِّنْهُمْ وَمَا نَحْنُ بِمَسْبُوقِينَ
70:41 - Substitute for them better (men) than they;
and We are not to be defeated (in Our Plan).
70:41. (அவர்களுக்கு பதிலாக) அவர்களை விடச் சிறந்தவர்களை நாம்
மாற்றியமைப்பதில் (ஆற்றலுடையோம்); ஏனெனில் நம்மை (எவரும்) மிகைக்க இயலாது.
70:42- فَذَرْهُمْ
يَخُوضُوا وَيَلْعَبُوا حَتَّىٰ يُلَاقُوا يَوْمَهُمُ الَّذِي يُوعَدُونَ
70:42 - So leave them to plunge in vain talk and play about until they
encounter that Day of theirs which they have been promised! 5703
70:42. ஆகவே, அவர்களுக்கு

விளையாடிக் கொண்டிருக்கவும் (வீணானவற்றில்) மூழ்கிக் கிடக்கவும், அவர்களை
நீர் விட்டுவிடுவீராக
70:43-

70:43 - The Day whereon they will issue from their sepulchers in
sudden haste as if they were rushing to a goal-post (fixed for them) 5704
70:43. நிச்சயமாக அவர்கள் (தாங்கள் ஆராதனை செய்யும்) எல்லைக் கற்களின்பால் விரைந்து

70:22 -Not so those
devoted to Prayer 5690
5690 The description of those devoted to Prayer is
given in a number of clauses that follow, introduced by the words "Those
who..." "Devoted to Prayer" is here but another aspect of what
is described elsewhere as the Faithful and the Righteous. Devotion to prayer
does not mean merely a certain number of formal rites or prostrations. It means
a complete surrender of one's being to Allah. This means an earnest approach to
and realisation of Allah's Presence ("steadfastness in Prayer"); acts
of practical and real charity; and attempt to read this life in terms of the
Hereafter; the seeking of the Peace of Allah and avoidance of His displeasure;
chastity; probity true and firm witness; and guarding the prayer. (verse 34). (70.22)
70:22. தொழுகையாளிகளைத் தவிர
70:23 - Those who remain
steadfast to their prayer;
وَالَّذِينَ
هُم مِّنْ عَذَابِ رَبِّهِم مُّشْفِقُونَ
70:27 - And those who fear the displeasure of their Lord
70:27. இன்னும் தம்முடைய இறைவன் (வழங்கக் கூடிய) வேதனைக்கு அஞ்சியவாறு இருப்பார்களே அவர்கள்
The one who neglects
an act that is an obligatory Sunnah will be punished; but he is
missing out on a great reward and the chance to make up any shortfall in his
obligations (waajibaat), because on
the Day of Resurrection, any shortfall in his obligations will be made up from
his Sunnah actions, if he has any to his credit. Doing Sunnah actions is also a
means of maintaining the practice of waajib
actions.
Letting the beard grow is an
obligation (waajib); it does not come
under the category of Sunnah as defined by the fuqahaa’. Whoever shaves his
beard is imitating the Majoos (Zoroastrians), going against the Fitrah (natural disposition of man), and
changing the creation of Allaah.
Following the way of Ahl al-Sunnah
is obligatory, and whoever departs from their way is doomed. Imaam Maalik (may
Allaah have mercy on him) said: the Sunnah
is like the ship of Nooh: whoever boards it will be saved and whoever stays
behind will be drowned.
AVOID INNOVATIONS ( BID’AT)
Sunan of Abu-Dawood

Hadith 4515 Narrated by
Ali ibn AbuTalib
If anyone
introduces an innovation or gives shelter to a man who introduces an innovation (in religion), he
is cursed by Allah, by His angels, and by all the people.
Bid’at (Innovation
is something that has no Islamic basis.
A thing which is not proved from
the Holy Quran and Hadith as in practice at the time of the Holy Prophet, his
companions, but is now done as religious duty.
The Prophet (Sal) has condemned one who indulges in
innovation and called them “destroyer of the religion”.
Al-Tirmidhi Hadith
Hadith 168 Narrated by
Bilal ibn Harith al-Muzani
Hadith 168 Narrated by
Bilal ibn Harith al-Muzani
Allah's Messenger (peace be upon him) said: He who revived a Sunnah out
of my Sunan, which has died after me, for him is the reward like the reward of
those who acted upon it, without any decrease in that reward. He who introduced
some evil innovation which Allah and His Messenger did not approve has (a
burden of sin upon him) like the sins of one who acted according to it, without
their sins being mitigated thereby in the least.

SHARI’A
The Shari’a is the total sum
of injunctions, that address those who qualify for being obligated to regard
the religious duties. It details the way
of life that the Creator intends for the created, who believe in him, to abide
by and to follow.
The number one source of the
Sharia of course is the Quran, the very words of Allah.
The Prophet, Peace and
Blessings be upon him, draws our attention that whatever he says as a Prophet, becomes a part of the Sharia and a part of
our religion.
This is in distinction to what
he said or did as a mere ordinary human being.
Whatever he told us that this is part of our religion, we have to take.
“Whoever obeys the Prophet, has obeyed Allah”
“Do whatever the Prophet commands you to do, and abstain
from that which he forbade us.”
The Hadith of the Prophet,
Peace and Blessing be upon him, was narrated and collected after his death.
There are things which the Quran did
not detail. The Quran ordered us to
observe our prayers, but it was the Prophet, Peace and Blessing be upon him,
who taught us how to pray, how many ‘rakas’ in each prayer, what to do and how
to perform the prayer. This is the
Sunna which compliments the Quran. These
are the two basic sources of the Shariah;.
In order to get to know what the Prophet said and taught,
one of the most exact sciences, and one of the most precise branches of the
science of History, was created. That is the ‘Science of the Hadith’, to
determine what Hadith are authentic, what are less than that, what Hadith are
possible and what are to be rejected. The Science of the Hadith is practically
one of the most exact branches of the science of History that humanity has ever
known.
The Quran and the Hadith are the constants of the Sharia,
they are the unchangeable part of the Sharia.
Provided there is the good, intelligent, knowledgeable deep
understanding.
Other sources of the Sharia are about things not
specifically mentioned in the Quran or the Hadith of the Prophet, Peace and
Blessing be upon him. Because the Sharia
is progressive and is suitable for all times and places. So the third source of the Sharia is the
‘Ijtihad’, the reasonable deduction, within the limits of the Quran and the
Sunna of the Prophet, Peace and Blessing be upon him.
For example, alcohol was specifically forbidden to drink
in the Quran. But the Quran and the
Prophet never mentioned anything about Cocaine, or Heroin. But then Ijtihad tells us that since the
reason for forbidding alcohol is its’ effect on the human mind, and since
cocaine has the same effect on the human mind, then according to the Sharia, it
also becomes Haram, forbidden, although it was never mentioned specifically by
name in the Quran or the Hadith.
Therefore heed Allah as if you see Him, for even if you
don’t see Him, He sees you. Voluntarily
surrender your life to Allah. When you
do that, this would manifest and express itself in your dealings with your
fellow Muslims and all the World.

Shaykh ul Islam Ibn Taymiyyah, may
Allah have mercy on him, said:
The punishment for a sin committed
by a believer is removed in ten ways:
1.
He
repents to Allah (taubah), so Allah accepts his repentance, for the one who
repents from sin is like the one who has no sin.
2.
He
seeks forgiveness from Allah (istighfar), so Allah forgives him.
3.
He
does good deeds that erase his sin for good deeds erase bad ones.
4.
His
believing brethren pray for him or seek forgiveness for his sins during his
life or death.
5.
Or they [ask Allah] to bestow on him as gift from the reward for their
deeds, with which Allah benefits him.
6.
His
Prophet Muhammad, sallallahu `alayhi wa sallam, intercedes for him.
7.
Allah
tests him with trials in this world which expiate his sin.
8 Allah tests him in al-Barzakh (the
intermediate life in the grave, between the death and . the Day of Judgment) which
expiates his sin
9 Allah tests him in the various stages of
the Day of Judgment which expiates his sins.
10
Or the Most Merciful of those who have mercy has mercy on him
Astaghfirullaahal-‘Adheemal-lathee
laa’’ilaaha ‘illaa Huwal-Hayyul-Qayyoomu wa ‘atoobu ‘ilayhi.
I seek the forgiveness of Allah the Mighty, Whom there is none
worthy of worship except Him, the Living, the Eternal, and I repent to Him.
Allah will forgive him even if he has deserted the army’s ranks.
وَلِلَّهِ غَيْبُ السَّمَـوَتِ وَالاٌّرْضِ وَمَآ أَمْرُ السَّاعَةِ
إِلاَّ كَلَمْحِ الْبَصَرِ أَوْ هُوَ أَقْرَبُ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَىْءٍ
قَدِير
16:77- To Allah belongeth the mystery of the heavens and the earth.
And the decision of the Hour (of Judgment) is as the twinkling of an eye
or even quicker: for Allah
hath power over all things. 2111
16:77மேலும், வானங்களிலும், பூமியிலும்
உள்ள இரகசியம் அல்லாஹ்வுக்கே உரியது; ஆகவே, (இறுதித்
தீர்ப்புக்குரிய) வேளையின் விஷயம் இமை கொட்டி விழிப்பது போல்
அல்லது (அதைவிட) சமீபத்தில் இல்லாமலில்லை;
நிச்சயமாக அல்லாஹ் எல்லாப் பொருட்களின் மீதும்
பேராற்றலுள்ளவனாக இருக்கின்றான்.
Note: 2111-
Lures of this world and its fleeting pleasures often make man forget that the
life hereafter is an imminent reality. Many of those who claim to believe in
the life to come act and behave as if it belonged to a distant future, and had
no relevance to their present activities and mode of living. The Qur-an repeatedly reminds man that the Hour of Reckoning is not a
distant possibility, but very close to man, and could come to pass any moment.
The wisest course for man, therefore, is to be always alert and watchful
and steer clear of all forms of sin and impiety, for when the Promised
Hour comes it will come all of a
sudden and without any prior notice.
فَلَوْلاَ
أَنَّهُ كَانَ مِنَ الْمُسَبِّحِينَ
37:143-Had it not been that he (repented and) glorified Allah
4124
Note: 4124-But he ( Yunus) cried through the depths of darkness “
There is no god, but Thee, glory to Thee!
I was indeed wrong!
لَلَبِثَ فِى
بَطْنِهِ إِلَى يَوْمِ يُبْعَثُونَ
37:144-He
would certainly have remained inside the Fish till the Day of Resurrection.
4125
Note:4125-If
he had not Repented, he could not have got out of the body of the
creature that had swallowed him,.
The
wisest course for man, therefore, is
to be always alert and watchful and steer
clear of all forms of sin and impiety
