Description

In this episode, Maulana Syed Abul Ala Maududi explores Surah Sad, a Makkan chapter that discusses the conflicts between truth and falsehood, the trials faced by prophets, and the ultimate triumph of faith. The Surah addresses the arrogance of those who reject divine guidance and highlights the patience and perseverance of righteous leaders.

This episode covers:

The rejection of the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) by the Quraysh, similar to how past nations rejected their prophets

The story of Dawood (AS) and his wisdom in judgment

The trials of Sulaiman (AS) and his submission to Allah despite his power

The patience of Ayyub (AS) in the face of suffering and hardship

The ultimate defeat of falsehood, as the righteous will inherit true success

Surah Sad teaches that arrogance leads to downfall, while humility and faith lead to salvation. It reassures believers that despite opposition, truth will always prevail, and those who remain steadfast will be rewarded by Allah.
