Sorah At-Tariq ( The Night-Comer ) - Verses Number 17

وَالسَّمَاءِ وَالطَّارِقِ ( 1 )

By the sky and the night comer -

وَمَا أَدْرَاكَ مَا الطَّارِقُ ( 2 )

And what can make you know what is the night comer?

النَّجْمُ الثَّاقِبُ ( 3 )

It is the piercing star -

إِن كُلُّ نَفْسٍ لَّمَّا عَلَيْهَا حَافِظٌ ( 4 )

There is no soul but that it has over it a protector.

فَلْيَنظُرِ الْإِنسَانُ مِمَّ خُلِقَ ( 5 )

So let man observe from what he was created.

خُلِقَ مِن مَّاءٍ دَافِقٍ ( 6 )

He was created from a fluid, ejected,

يَخْرُجُ مِن بَيْنِ الصُّلْبِ وَالتَّرَائِبِ ( 7 )

Emerging from between the backbone and the ribs.

إِنَّهُ عَلَىٰ رَجْعِهِ لَقَادِرٌ ( 8 )

Indeed, Allah, to return him [to life], is Able.

يَوْمَ تُبْلَى السَّرَائِرُ ( 9 )

The Day when secrets will be put on trial,

فَمَا لَهُ مِن قُوَّةٍ وَلَا نَاصِرٍ ( 10 )

Then man will have no power or any helper.

وَالسَّمَاءِ ذَاتِ الرَّجْعِ ( 11 )

By the sky which returns [rain]

وَالْأَرْضِ ذَاتِ الصَّدْعِ ( 12 )

And [by] the earth which cracks open,

إِنَّهُ لَقَوْلٌ فَصْلٌ ( 13 )

Indeed, the Qur'an is a decisive statement,

وَمَا هُوَ بِالْهَزْلِ ( 14 )

And it is not amusement.

إِنَّهُمْ يَكِيدُونَ كَيْدًا ( 15 )

Indeed, they are planning a plan,

وَأَكِيدُ كَيْدًا ( 16 )

But I am planning a plan.

فَمَهِّلِ الْكَافِرِينَ أَمْهِلْهُمْ رُوَيْدًا ( 17 )

So allow time for the disbelievers. Leave them awhile.

The Difference between Advising and CondemningIn this classical treatise, Ibn Rajab (may Allah have mercy on him) discusses the differences between advising and condemning, which is an extremely important topic since it is very common that the two are confused for one another. For the most part, his talk revolves around the dealings and affairs of the scholars, and how it was from their way to advise and accept the truth from one another. And he shows how condemning was not from their characteristics, but rather from the signs of the evil and wicked people who held hidden goals and objectives.This book is especially important in these days due to the wide scale confusion that exists on this subject amongst the Muslims. So today when we find scholars of the Sunnah refuting weak opinions of other scholars from the past, they are quickly accused of hating those scholars of the past and just condemning them, when in fact they are really advising the ummah and warning the Muslims against following a man in his error. So, we hope that these matters become clear to the reader upon studying this treatise and that he is able to distinguish those who are truly advising from those who are just condemning.

Section on Raising the Hands in the PrayerIn the religion of Islam after declaring the shahadah, the second most important pillar is the Salaah (prayer). Whenever the messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) used to pray, He used to raise both his hands up to his ears or shoulders during the first takbeer, before ruku’ and after ruku, as is proven from the Mutawaatir ahadith. In common language, it is called “Rafa Yadain”.
