In this episode, Maulana Syed Abul Ala Maududi explores Surah Fussilat, also known as Haa’ Meem As-Sajdah. This Makkan chapter highlights the clear and direct nature of the Qur’an and warns those who reject its message. It emphasizes the consequences of disbelief, the signs of Allah in creation, and the fate of past nations who denied the truth. The Surah also reassures believers that patience and steadfastness will lead to ultimate success.
This episode covers:
• The Qur’an as a book of clear guidance, revealed in the Arabic language for people to understand
• The arrogance of the disbelievers, who refuse to listen and cover their ears from the truth
• The signs of Allah in the heavens and the earth, urging reflection on divine creation
• The fate of past nations, destroyed for their denial of prophets and guidance
• The reward for those who say “Our Lord is Allah”, and remain steadfast in faith
• The powerful prostration verse, highlighting submission to Allah’s authority
Surah Fussilat (Haa’ Meem As-Sajdah) serves as a reminder that true success lies in accepting Allah’s guidance. It calls upon people to open their hearts to the Qur’an and recognize the truth before it is too late.
