Surah Al-Baqara: page 39

 حَٰفِظُواْ عَلَى ٱلصَّلَوَٰتِ وَٱلصَّلَوٰةِ ٱلۡوُسۡطَىٰ وَقُومُواْ لِلَّهِ قَٰنِتِينَ (238)

Preserve the prayers and the middle prayer, and stand up to God with humility

He commands the preservation of prayers in general and the middle prayer, which is the afternoon prayer in particular, and the maintenance of its performance at its time, conditions, pillars, and reverence, and all that is obligatory and desirable, and by maintaining the prayers, the preservation of all other acts of worship will be achieved, and it will benefit from forbidding indecency and evil in particular, If he completes it as commanded by saying {And stand up to God with humility} that is: humble and submissive, in which there is an order to stand up and qunoot, and the prohibition of speaking, and the command of reverence, this with security and humility.

A look at the verse

In Al-Tirmidhi Mosque, and Al-Albani graded it authentic: On the authority of Jubair Bin Nafir, on the authority of Ubadah Bin Al-Samit, He said to him: If you wish, I will tell you the first knowledge raised by the people? humility, you are about to enter a congregational mosque and not see a humble man in it.


The middle prayer (Asr) in the middle of the day after the fatigue of the first half of the day since the morning awakening, when God Almighty wants us, to be a morning person, i.e. to wake up from about 5 in the morning, and to take a small nap after the noon prayer, the largest of which is 20 minutes or a little more, and to be awake, after the Asr prayer, to pray and remember, which we never do in our current life, except for some Asian foreigners in particular, and they do it not for religion but for the purpose of productivity.

Napping: Do's and don'ts for healthy adults

Not sure if napping is good for you? Understand the pros and cons and the best way to take a nap, If you are sleep deprived or just looking for a way to unwind, you might consider taking a nap. However, napping at the wrong time of day or for too long can backfire.

What are the disadvantages of napping?

Napping isn't for everyone. Some people simply can't sleep during the day or have trouble sleeping in places other than their beds, which sometimes requires naps.

Naps can also have negative effects, such as:

Lack of sleep. You may feel dizzy and disoriented after waking up from a nap.

Sleep problems at night. Short naps generally don't affect the quality of a night's sleep for most people. But if you suffer from insomnia or lack of sleep at night, napping may exacerbate these problems. Long or frequent naps may interfere with a night's sleep.

What is the best way to take a nap?

To get the most out of your nap, follow these tips:

Keep naps short. Aim for only 10 to 20 minutes of naps. The longer the nap, the more likely you will feel dizzy afterward. However, young adults may be able to tolerate a longer nap.


Take a nap in the early afternoon. Siesta after 3 p.m. May interfere with sleep at night. Individual factors, such as your need for sleep, your sleep schedule, your age, and your medication use, can all play a role in determining the best time of day to take a nap.

Create a comfortable environment. Said in a quiet, dark place with a comfortable room temperature and few distractions.

After a nap, give yourself time to get up before resuming activities — especially those that require a quick or sharp response.

The witness from the foregoing

How many of us pray Asr while yawning and thinking of going to sleep after a hot meal, which is the opposite of what God Almighty wants, He - Glory be to Him - wants to pray with qunoot:

With humility and focus in words, monologues, movements in prayer, and other outward and esoteric rulings (submission) And it is because of our lifestyle, which differed greatly from what the Muslims used to do in the early days of Islam, and God is Most High and Knows.

فَإِنۡ خِفۡتُمۡ فَرِجَالًا أَوۡ رُكۡبَانٗاۖ فَإِذَآ أَمِنتُمۡ فَٱذۡكُرُواْ ٱللَّهَ كَمَا عَلَّمَكُم مَّا لَمۡ تَكُونُواْ تَعۡلَمُونَ (239)

If you were afraid of walking or riding, then if you were secure, so remember God as He taught you what you did not know (239)

{if you fear}

  He did not mention what he is afraid of to include fear of an unbeliever and an oppressor, and other types of fears, i.e.: If you fear your prayers in that capacity, pray them {Regala} meaning: walking on your feet, {or riders} on horses, camels, and others, and it is necessary for that that they be facing the qiblah and not facing it, and in this there is an increase in emphasis, to preserve its time when it is commanded to do so, even with the violation of many of the pillars and conditions, and that it is not permissible to delay it beyond its time, even in this severe case, praying it in that way is better, and even more obligatory than praying it in peace outside of time {so when you believe} that is: fear is removed from you {so remember God} this includes all types of remembrance, including prayer for its perfection and completeness, {Just as He taught you what you did not know} for it is a great blessing and a great favor, It requires meeting it with remembrance and gratitude, so that He may preserve His blessings upon you and increase them.

 وَٱلَّذِينَ يُتَوَفَّوۡنَ مِنكُمۡ وَيَذَرُونَ أَزۡوَٰجٗا وَصِيَّةٗ لِّأَزۡوَٰجِهِم مَّتَٰعًا إِلَى ٱلۡحَوۡلِ غَيۡرَ إِخۡرَاجٖۚ فَإِنۡ خَرَجۡنَ فَلَا جُنَاحَ عَلَيۡكُمۡ فِي مَا فَعَلۡنَ فِيٓ أَنفُسِهِنَّ مِن مَّعۡرُوفٖۗ وَٱللَّهُ عَزِيزٌ حَكِيمٞ (240)

And those of you who die and leave wives behind, a bequest to their wives, enjoyment until the year despite the ejection ٖۚ so if they went out there is no sin upon you for what they do with themselves, who is kind, and God is Mighty, Wise (240)


That is: spouses who die and leave behind spouses, so they must bequeath {a bequest to their spouses as enjoyment until one year without taking it out} that is, they instruct that they stay in their homes for a period of one year, without leaving it, {If they go out} from themselves {there is no blame on you} O guardians {For what they have done for themselves of kindness, and God is Mighty, Wise} That is, from reviewing the adornment and perfume and the like, and most of the commentators believe that this verse is abrogated by what preceded it, which is his saying: {And those of you who die and leave couples who wait by themselves for four months and ten days} and it was said that you did not abrogate it, but the first verse indicates that four months and ten days are obligatory, anything more than that is recommended and should be done to complement the husband’s right and out of consideration for the wife, the evidence that this is desirable is that here he denied the wing of the guardians, If they leave before the completion of the year, and if the necessity of housing is obligatory, the embarrassment does not negate them.

A look at the verse

  The widowhood effect

A 2013 study in the Journal of Public Health showed that people have a 66% increased risk of dying within the first 90 days of losing their spouse. This finding was true for both men and women.

An earlier study from 2008 came to a similar conclusion, finding that surviving couples had up to a 90% chance of dying within the first three months after the spouse's death.


The researchers aren't sure. There are many theories but no conclusive proof. Some possible causes of the death of a grieving spouse soon after a partner include:


The physical and mental tolls of being a carer. Adults who spend all of their time caring for a sick spouse may be neglectful of their own health and well-being. This feeling of indifference may extend into the grieving process once the spouse has died. For example, the surviving partner may fail to take prescribed medications or keep important doctor appointments.

The physiological effect of grief.

  Symptoms of grief can range from sleep disturbances and weight loss to decreased immunity and illness. According to a 2018 study by researchers at Rice University, men and women experienced greater grief after the death of their spouse and experienced 17% higher levels of inflammation in their bodies. High levels of inflammation have been linked to serious health risks such as heart attack and stroke.

Lack of social support

  This is especially true if the surviving spouse relies on their partner to maintain an active social calendar and stay connected to family and friends.

The witness from the foregoing

That is, do not be harsh on the women who lost their husbands for one reason or another after the waiting period has expired. If they decide to leave mourning after 50 days, then leave them as they want, without prejudice to the requirements of the Sharia of hijab, and modesty and other things, perhaps because wars will increase at the end of time and young widows will multiply, or other than that, and the mercy of religion pervades all those who seek shade under its umbrella, and God is Most High and Knowing.

وَلِلۡمُطَلَّقَٰتِ مَتَٰعُۢ بِٱلۡمَعۡرُوفِۖ حَقًّا عَلَى ٱلۡمُتَّقِينَ (241)

Enjoyment of kindness is a right upon the righteous (241) That is: every divorced woman has a right to enjoy what is right on every fearful person, to fill her thoughts and fulfill some of her rights, and this pleasure is obligatory for the one who was divorced before the politicized one, and the obligation is Sunnah in the case of someone else, as previously, this is the best of what was said about it, and it was said that mut’a is obligatory for every divorced woman as a proof of the generality of this verse, but the rule is that the divorced person is portable to the restricted one, and it was presented that God imposed the pleasure of the divorced woman before the imposition and the politicized one in particular, for what was explained in the previous verse, the enjoyment of parting with death, it was mentioned here that every divorced woman has the right for her husband to give her enjoyment and give her what suits his condition and her condition, and that it is a right that only the righteous do, It is one of the qualities of obligatory and desirable piety.


If the woman did not specify a dowry for her, and he divorced her before consummation, then it was preceded that he must according to his left and his insolvency, and if it is named for her, then her enjoyment is half of the name

 And if it was entered into, then the pleasure became desirable, according to the majority of scholars, and among the scholars are those who obligated that, as evidence by saying “a right upon the righteous.” And the basic principle in “the right” is that it is obligatory.

A look at the verse

Divorcing a woman is a kind of fracture, and a divorced woman feels psychologically broken in reality and not metaphorically as the Messenger of God told (on the authority of Abu Hurayrah, he said: The Messenger of God, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, said: the woman was created from a rib, she will not straighten you in any way, If you enjoyed her, you enjoyed her and in her a crookedness, and if you go to straighten her, you break her, and divorce is breaks her) this is according to the psychological strength of each woman individually. Some of them take this period (the period of psychological break) for a period of 3 months, the average of which is 6 months or more, the psychological breakage is not too much for her due to the lack of money in her hand also, especially if she is benefiting herself from you in order to get rid of the marital bond with you, and be one of the pious ones who seek self-reliance by the value of their manhood and their upper hand, not by detracting from you, and that you show before yourself and in front of the general believers that you are not pious, and the opposite of piety: departing from obedience (fasq) just because you are stubborn with a woman who does not want you to be her husband.

 كَذَٰلِكَ يُبَيِّنُ ٱللَّهُ لَكُمۡ ءَايَٰتِهِۦ لَعَلَّكُمۡ تَعۡقِلُونَ (242)

Thus does God make clear to you His signs that you may understand (242)

And when the Almighty clarified these great rulings that include wisdom and mercy, He thanked His servants with them, saying: {Thus Allah makes clear to you His verses} that is: His limits, what He permitted and what He prohibited, and the rulings that are beneficial to you, perhaps you understand them, so you know them and know what is meant by them, because whoever knows that is obligated to act according to them, He praised his rulings and his statement and clarification of them, and their approval of sound minds.

۞ أَلَمۡ تَرَ إِلَى ٱلَّذِينَ خَرَجُواْ مِن دِيَٰرِهِمۡ وَهُمۡ أُلُوفٌ حَذَرَ ٱلۡمَوۡتِ فَقَالَ لَهُمُ ٱللَّهُ مُوتُواْ ثُمَّ أَحۡيَٰهُمۡۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ لَذُو فَضۡلٍ عَلَى ٱلنَّاسِ وَلَٰكِنَّ أَكۡثَرَ ٱلنَّاسِ لَا يَشۡكُرُونَ (243)

۞ Have you not seen those who left their homes when they were thousands, they warned the dead, so God said to them, Die, then He will revive them, Indeed, Allah is of bounty to people, but most people are not grateful (243)

The Almighty tells us the story of those who left their homes despite their large numbers and the agreement of their purposes, that the one who expelled them from it warned of death from an epidemic or something else, by this exit, they mean safety from death, but caution does not take the place of destiny, {And God said to them, Die} so they died {then {God Almighty} brought them back to life} either by the call of a prophet or otherwise, out of mercy for them, kindness and forbearance, and an explanation of His signs to His creation by bringing the dead to life, and that is why He said: {Indeed, God is endowed with bounty} meaning: Great, {For people, but most of them are not thankful} so the blessing does not increase their gratitude, rather, they may seek the help of God's blessings for his sins, and few of them are thankful who know the blessing, acknowledge it, and spend it in obedience to the blessing.

A look at the verse

Did you survive certain death? Once or more than once? Did you thank God afterwards, or did you thank those who helped you to be alive and well now? the truth is that we are all remiss, even if we got out of the sea in a whirlpool of sea turmoil, or from under the rubble in a devastating earthquake, we merge into our bad psychological state after getting out of the crisis, and we forget the crisis, and with it we forget gratitude. A person is not called a person except because he is very forgetful, (And We made a covenant with Adam before, then he forgot...) Forgetfulness is an essential feature in our lives, and therefore the reminder benefits the believers, and the best of those who are reminded (God Almighty and Himself) often reminds us of gratitude, and tells us that the grateful are few in number, and God is Most High and All-Knowing.

And they fought in the cause of God, and know

Then the Almighty commanded to fight in His way, which is to fight the infidel enemies to uphold the word of God and support His religion, He said: {And fight in the way of God and know that God is All-Hearing, All-Knowing} Meaning: So be good with your intentions and aim for God’s sake by that, and know that abstaining from fighting will not benefit you at all, even if you thought that in idleness is your life and your survival, then this is not the case, That is why he mentioned the previous story as a prelude to this matter, just as those who went out from their homes did not benefit from the warning of death from their departure, but rather what they warned came to them without being counted, so know that you are like that, that is: Have you not heard of this amazing story that happened to those before you among the children of Israel, when the epidemic came to their homes, so they went out in this large number, fleeing from death, fleeing did not save them, nor did they avail themselves of the occurrence of what they were warning.


So treat them with the opposite of their intentions, and God put them to death from the last of them

Then He favored them, so He revived them, either by the call of a Prophet, as many commentators said, or otherwise, but that is by His grace and benevolence, and He is still His bounty over the people, this necessitates their gratitude for God's blessings by acknowledging them and spending them in God's pleasure. However, most people have fallen short of the duty of gratitude.

 مَّن ذَا ٱلَّذِي يُقۡرِضُ ٱللَّهَ قَرۡضًا حَسَنٗا فَيُضَٰعِفَهُۥ لَهُۥٓ أَضۡعَافٗا كَثِيرَةٗۚ وَٱللَّهُ يَقۡبِضُ وَيَبۡصُۜطُ وَإِلَيۡهِ تُرۡجَعُونَ (245)

Who is it that will lend Allah a goodly loan, so that He will multiply it, He has many multipliers, and it is God that withdraws and pours out, and to Him you shall be returned (245)

And since fighting in the way of God cannot be completed without spending and spending money in that, the Almighty commanded spending in His way and desired it, and He called it a loan, so He said: {Who is the one who lends God a goodly loan} so he spends what he can of his money in charitable ways, especially in jihad, a good deed is multiplied by ten to seven hundred times to many times more, according to the state of the spender, his intention, the benefit of his spending and the need for it, and since a person may have imagined that if he spends, he becomes poor, then the Most High repelled this illusion by saying: {And God withholds and simplifies} meaning: He expands the provision for whomever He wills and takes it away from whomever He wills, all disposal is in His Hands and the course of affairs is up to Him, so abstaining does not expand sustenance, and spending does not seize it, and despite that, spending is not wasted on those who deserve it, all disposal is in His Hands and the course of affairs is up to Him, so abstaining does not expand sustenance, and spending does not seize it, and despite that, spending is not wasted on those who deserve it, {And to Him you will be returned} so He will reward you for your deeds. In these verses, there is evidence that reasons do not work with fate and destiny, especially the reasons for abandoning God's commands, And in it: the great verse of reviving the dead in this house. And in it: the command to fight and spend in the way of God, and mention the reasons for that urging it, from calling it a loan, and multiplying it, and that God takes hold and simplifies, and to Him you will be returned.

From the meaning of the loan in language

What you give to someone else in terms of money that they return to you.


A mouse gnaws wood i.e. cut it


It came from nippers: scissors with which tree branches are pruned or nails are clipped.

God - the Almighty - says to you: Cut off a part of your money and take it out from your disposal and give it to the needy, and imagine that this money will not return to you again, Even if he returns, he falls into the hands of God - the Almighty - originally and at the beginning because he said - Glory be to Him, Exalted be He - (Who is the one who will lend to God) He made the needy's need his own need - Glory be to Him the Most High -

What are the characteristics of the scissors?

Cutting professionally and quickly, so if you decide to lend to one of God’s creatures - come - take it out from under your hand quickly (cut off) so that you do not go back of your words.


And since we are addressed by the Qur’an, you and we must apply every verse in it, even once in our entire lives, so that we have an argument before God - the Almighty - and God is Most High and Knows.
