In this episode, Maulana Syed Abul Ala Maududi explores Surah As-Sajdah, a Makkan chapter that emphasizes the reality of life, death, and resurrection. The Surah urges people to reflect on the signs of Allah in creation and warns those who deny the Hereafter of their eventual reckoning. It also highlights the difference between true believers—who humbly submit to Allah—and those who remain heedless of His guidance.
This episode covers:
• The creation of man from clay and the stages of human existence
• The signs of Allah in the heavens and the earth, calling for deep reflection
• The fate of those who reject the truth, contrasted with the rewards of the righteous
• The humility of true believers, who fall in prostration (Sajdah) upon hearing the truth
• The certainty of resurrection and the ultimate justice of Allah
Surah As-Sajdah serves as a reminder that this life is temporary and that true success lies in submission to Allah. It calls people to recognize the signs of creation, prepare for the Hereafter, and live a life of sincere faith and devotion.
