Sufyaan Ath-Thawree, rahimahullaah, said: "The excellence of knowledge is due only to the fact that it causes a person to fear and obey Allah, otherwise it is just like anything else." [Related by ibn Rajab]

Bertudung tidak semestinya menutup aurat!

Isu aurat & tudung

MENUTUP AURAT BUKAN SEKADAR PAKAI TUDUNG

Satu ketika dahulu, ramai mengatakan
memakai tudung itu hanyalah sunat muakad
atau tidak wajib. Kalau tidak
memakai tudung, hanya berdosa kecil.
Kononnya sebaik saja mengambil wuduk
untuk bersolat lima waktu, secara
automatik dosa kita dibasuh dan
terhapus. Apabila bergaul dengan
pelbagai bangsa dan agama, kita banyak
mendengar dan membaca bagaimana media
barat memomokkan kod pakaian wanita
Islam yang dikaitkan dengan maruah dan
harga diri.






Dari suatu sudut lain, ada wanita Islam
yang bertudung dan menyangkakan mereka
sudah menutup aurat, tetapi
masih mengenakan seluar jeans yang
ketet, kemeja T yang menampakkan pakaian
dalam atau yang hanya layak
dipakai oleh adiknya yang berumur 10
tahun. Ada juga yang mengenakan tudung,
tetapi memakai kain terbelah sehingga
menampakkan peha, pakaian terbelah di
dada, kemeja T berlengan pendek dan ada
kalanya memakai skirt separas betis.
Persoalannya, apakah cirri pakaian
menutup aurat bagi wanita Islam?

Aurat berasal daripada bahasa arab
‘aurah’ yang bererti kurang. Dalam fiqh,
aurat diertikan sebagai bahagian tubuh
seseorang yang wajib ditutup daripada
pandangan orang lain. (Wanbah
al-Zuhayli, al-fiqh al-islami wa
adillatuhu, Damsyik: Dar al-fikr,
halaman 579). Walaupun ulama berkompromi
mengenai had aurat yang perlu ditutup
oleh wanita, namun mereka beersepakat
mengatakan hukum menutup aurat bagi
setiap wanita muslim yang baligh adalah
wajib. Untuk memenuhi syarat menutup
aurat, pakaian seseorang wanita mestilah
memenuhi syarat berikut:

*Menutupi had aurat yang sudah
ditetapkan. Jumhur ulama bersepakat
mengatakan aurat bagi wanita baligh
ialah seluruh tubuhnya kecuali muka dan
tapak tamgan. Oleh itu, mereka wajib
menutup aurat daripada dilihat oleh
lelaki ajnabi (bukan mahram). Allah
berfirman yang bermaksud: “Dan hendaklah
mereka (wanita) menutup belahan leher
bajunya dengan tudung kepala mereka.”
(Surah an-Nur, ayat 31). Firman Allah
lagi yang bermaksud: “Wahai Nabi,
suruhlah isteri-isterimu dan anak-anak
perempuanmu serta perempuan yang
beriman, supaya melabuhkan pakaiannya
bagi menutup seluruh tubuhnya (ketika
mereka keluar), cara yang demikian lebih
sesuai untuk mereka dikenal (sebagai
perempuan yang baik-baik) maka dengan
itu mereka tidak diganggu dan ingatlah
Allah adalah Maha Pengampun, lagi Maha
Mengasihani.”(Surah al-Ahzab, ayat 59).
Ayat itu Allah memerintahkan supaya
Nabi Muhammad SAW menyuruh isteri
baginda mengenakan pakaian yang menutup
aurat. Suruhan itu juga
ditujukan kepada semua wanita beriman.

*Pakaian yang longgar. Tujuan utama
wanita diwajibkan menutup aurat ialah
untuk mengelakkan daripada lelaki ajnabi
melihat tubuh badannya dan mengelakkan
daripada berlakunya fitnah. Oleh itu,
pakaian yang ketat walaupun tebal sudah
pasti akan menampakkan bentuk tubuh
badan. Wanita yang memakai pakaian ketat
walaupun menutupi seluruh tubuh masih
belum memenuhi tuntutan menutup aurat
seperti dikehendaki syarak.
Syarat ini berdasarkan kepada kata
Dahiyyah bin Khalifah al-Kalbi yang
bermaksud: “Rasulullah SAW didatangi
dengan beberapa helai kain ‘qubtiyyah’
(sejenis kain yang nipis buatan Mesir),
lalu baginda berkata: “Bahagikan kain
ini kepada dua, satu daripadanya dibuat
baju dan bakinya berikan kepada
isterimu.” Apabila aku berpaling untuk
beredar baginda berkata: “Dan suruhlah
isterimu meletakkan kain lain di
bawahnya (supaya tidak nampak bentuk
tubuhnya).” Menurut Ibnu Rusyd,
‘qubtiyyah’ ialah pakaian yang tebal
tetapi melekat pada badan kerana ianya
ketat dan menampakkan bentuk tubuh
pemakainya. Oleh itu, Rasulullah SAW
menyuruh Dahiyyah menyuruh
isterinya melapik pakaian itu dengan
kain lain supaya tidak menampakkan
bentuk tubuhnya.

*Pakaian yang tidak jarang. Syarak
menetapkan pakaian wanita mestilah tidak
jarang sehingga menampakkan bentuk tubuh
dan warna kulitnya.

A Dinner of Smells

A Dinner of Smells



Once, long ago, a very fine and expensive restaurant stood on a busy street in a bustling market town. One day, a poor man passed by this restaurant. He was tired and hungry, for he had had nothing to eat all day. His nostrils caught the smell of the delicious food being cooked inside. He stopped and sniffed, smiled sadly, and began to walk away.

But he did not get far. The owner of the restaurant came storming out into the street.

"Come here!" he bellowed. "I saw that! You took the smell of my food, and you'll have to pay for it!"

The poor man did not know what to do.

"I cannot pay!" he stammered. "I have no money!" "No money!" shouted the restaurant owner. "We'll see about that! You're coming with me to the Qadi!

A Qadi is a judge in a Muslim court. Naturally, he is very powerful, and the poor man was frightened.

"Hmm," said the Qadi, when he had heard the story. "Well, this is an unusual case. Let me think. Come back tomorrow, and I'll pronounce the sentence."

What could the poor man do? He knew whatever sum the Qadi demanded, payment would be impossible.

All night long he tossed and turned, unable to sleep for worry. When dawn came he said his prayers and, tired and dejected, made his way to the Qadi's court.

As he passed the masjid he spotted a familiar figure -- Nasrudin the Hoja. Suddenly, his heart lifted. For he knew that Nasrudin was a clever man, who was sure to be able to think of a way around the problem. He poured out his story, and Nasrudin agreed to come to the court and speak for him. The rich restaurant owner was already at the court, chatting with the Qadi. The poor man saw that they were friends, and feared the judgment would go against him.

He was right. The Qadi began heaping insults upon the poor man as soon as he saw him, and ordered him to pay a very large sum of money.

At once, Nasrudin stepped forward. "My lord," he said to the Qadi. "This man is my brother. Allow me to pay in his place."

Then the mullah took a small bag of coins from his belt an held it next to the rich man's ear. He shook the bag, so that the coins jingled.

"Can you hear that?" asked Nasrudin.

"Of course," the man replied, impatiently.

"Well, that is your payment," said the mullah. "My brother has smelled your food, and you have heard his money. The debt is paid."

And, in the face of such argument, the case was settled and the poor man went free.

Supplications and Dua When Visiting the Sick

Assalamualaikum wbt,


since I am still sick and not feeling well, I'll post about Supplications or Duas when visiting the sick.


When someone is critically ill:
 
 
When someone is so critically ill that there is no hope for his recovery, under no circumstances should he (or she) pray for his (or her) death. But if one must, then one should recite the following dua:
 
Allah-humma ah-yini ma kaanatil hayaatu khairall-lee wa tawaff-fani i-dha kaanatil wa faato khai-rall-lee.
 
Translation: O Allah, keep me alive so long as it is in my best interest and give me death when it is in my best interest.

 

When visiting the sick



La ba'sa tahoorun inshaa-Allah. La ba'sa tahoorun inshaa-Allah.


Translation: No need to worry. It (this sickness) is a means of cleansing from sins. No need to worry. It (this sickness) is a means of cleansing from sins.


taken from : http://www.islam.tc/Dua/
 

Among the manners of visiting the sick according to the Fiqh Sunnah Book/ Kitab are:

  1. Pray for the sick ones to get well soon
  2. Advice him/her to be patient and strong
  3. Give encouraging and motivational speeches that can entertain and strengthen his/her heart. For eg: 'Don't worry, Insya Allah you'll be okay soon'.
  4. Cut short your visiting period
  5. Not to visit frequently, unless there is a special request from the sick ones.
  6. It is permissible for women to visit a sick man. Quote: Aishah RA had once visited Bilal Bin Rabah who has undergone high fever.
  7. It is also allowed to visit our non-muslims friends who are sick               (written in Al- Bukhari Hadith )

Asal-usul Perkataan 'Mosque'....

Question:

There is a book entitled The
Complete Idiot’s Guide to
Understanding Islam. It discusses
within it many things, including the
etymology of the word “mosque”. It
says that this word is derived from
the Spanish word for “mosquito”. It
claims that the word was first used
during the Christian invasion of
Muslim Spain in the 15th century when
the forces of King Ferdinand and Queen
Isabella boasted they would swat out
Muslim prayer houses like so many
mosquitoes. Is this true?







Answered by the Scientific Research
Committee - IslamToday.net

This etymology is incorrect.

The Spanish word for "mosquito" is
mosquito and literally means “little
fly”. This is a case where the English
language borrowed the word directly
from the Spanish.

The word for “fly” in Spanish is
mosca, which is derived from the Latin
musca. The diminutive suffix “-ito” is
attached to it to form the word
mosquito or “little fly”.

The Spanish term for “mosque” is
mezquita, derived from the old Spanish
mesquita. This word was most certainly
derived from the Arabic word masjid,
which many Arabs then and now
pronounce as masgid.

In Spain during the era of Muslim
rule – and this was before the time of
King Ferdinand – Spanish speakers were
using the word mosquito for the insect
and the word mesquita for the Muslim
place of worship. The two words are
not related to one another in any way.

The word “mosque” was introduced into
the English language in the late 14th
or early 15th century from the French.
It comes from the French word mosquée
from the old French word mousquaie.
The French, in turn, derived the word
from the Italian word moschea from
moscheta. The Italians got it either
directly from the Arabic word masjid
or from the old Spanish mesquita.

What makes Muslims believe that the Quran is not written by Prophet Muhammad?

salam guys..
 
I have an interesting email to share with you...it is from ahumanb@yahoo.com
 
 
What makes Muslims believe that the Quran is not written by Prophet Muhammad? Does the Quran claim that it is from God? Could the Prophet have copied some portions of the Bible? Are there scientific facts in the Quran?

 



Muslims believe that Prophet Muhammad is not the author of the Quran. God is its Author. The following points bear the fact:

*First of all, the Quran itself, at a number of places and in different ways, says that it is from God. One of the claims runs thus: "This is indeed a Quran most honourable, a Book well-guarded. ..a Revelation from the Lord of the Worlds." (Quran 56:77-80)

(Here, one ought to know the features of the Quran to understand the claim better. For instance, if the Quran had consisted of a number of books, and each book was made up of a number of chapters, then each of the books had to claim that it was from God in order to render the WHOLE volume as coming from God. But, this is fortunately not so with the Quran. The Quran is just ONE Book made up of 114 chapters. So, if the Quran claims, in any of its chapters, that the Book is from God, then the WHOLE Quran is from God. Yet, the Quran does not make the divine claim only once, but several times in different phrases and in different chapters.)

*If the Prophet had written the Quran _ a Book par excellence _ surely he would have claimed credit for it, but he did not. He could not claim what was not his. Indeed God says: "This Quran is not such as can be produced by anyone other than God." (10:37)

*The Prophet was unlettered. However, even if he was educated and had written the Quran, how could he be bold enough to make this statement: "Do they not consider (ponder over) the Quran (with care)? Had it been from other than God, they would surely have found therein discrepancies" . (4:82)

Abdullah Yusuf Ali, commenting on this verse (verse 4:82) in his English translation of the Quran, says: "From a mere human point of view, we should have expected much discrepancy, because (1) Prophet Muhammad who promulgated it was not a learned man or philosopher, (2) it was promulgated at various times and in various circumstances, and (3) it is addressed to all grades of mankind. Yet, when properly understood, its various pieces fit together better than a jigsaw puzzle even when arranged without any regard to chronological order. There was just the One Inspirer and one inspired."

*The Quran took 23 years to complete. Had the verses of the Quran (which contains 6,666 verses) been written by the Prophet, he would have needed a number of drafts and the work would have needed editing, updating, etc. But this did not happen, yet the information is consistent throughout the Quran. The verses were taken down as dictated by the Prophet only once and no redrafting, editing or updating took place after that.

*At a number of stages during the 23-year period, challenges to reproduce, even a chapter of the Quran, were made. If the Prophet had written the Quran, he would not have made the challenges, for fear that the learned

Arabs and eminent poets of his time would have taken up his challenges and shamed him. One of the challenges goes thus: "And if you are in doubt as to what We have revealed (from time to time) to Our servant (Muhammad), then produce a chapter like thereunto... " (2:23)

*The Quran says that the Prophet was not learned.

So, if the Prophet was educated in some institution but mentioned in the Quran that he wasn't, he would have been accused of being a liar and his mission would have fallen through.

*Even if the Prophet was learned, how could he have written such an inimitable Book of Information and Wisdom without resorting to consultation with prominent scholars and the best books from the best libraries in the world?! If he did this, it would surely have been known, since every move he made was known to people. The Prophet was a historical figure, not a mythological figure.

*The Prophet was the busiest and most active person in history. So, how could he have found the time to write (even if he were educated) such a comprehensive and extensive Book of Guidance which would have needed years of seclusion and concentration to complete?

*In the Quran, in Chapter 111, it is mentioned that Abu Lahab, one of the Prophet's uncles who was always against Islam, would never accept Islam. This Revelation came some ten years before the death of Abu Lahab. How could the Prophet have dared to write this chapter because all he (Abu Lahab) needed to do to prove that the Quran was not the Words of God, was to accept Islam dishonestly?

*The Prophet was mentioned by name in the Quran only five times whereas Jesus Christ's name was (honourably) mentioned 25 times. Could the Prophet go to such an extent of honouring someone more than himself if he had written the Quran?

*There is a chapter in the Quran entitled and dedicated to "Mary", the mother of Jesus Christ, while there is no chapter called, or dedicated to, the Prophet's own mother, Aminah, or daughter, Fatimah, nor were their names mentioned in the Quran. Could this have happened if the Prophet was the author of the Quran?

*Mary, the mother of Jesus Christ, is glorified in the Quran as a "woman of all nations". Why would the Prophet glorify a woman he had never seen and one from another race, saying that she was chosen (by God) above all women unless the formulation of the verses had nothing to do with the Prophet's own authorship but that he only repeated what was inspired to him by God?

*In the Quran, God is called "Allah" (in Arabic). He is also referred to by His Attributes, like the Cherisher, the Merciful, the Almighty. There are 99 such Attributes but none of these is "Abba" (Father) by which the Arab Christians of the Prophet's time (and even today) refer to God. If the Prophet was the writer of the Quran, he would surely have used "Abba" as one of the names for God because of its familiarity and also because it was easier to say "Abba" than many of the Attributes.

*Although the Quran's objective is basically religious, it does touch on certain principles and laws governing the universe. A French scientist, Maurice Bucaille, in his book, "The Bible, the Quran and Science", says: "What initially strikes the reader confronted for the first time with a text of this kind (the Quran) is the sheer abundance of subjects discussed: the Creation, astronomy, the explanation of certain matters concerning the earth, and the animal and vegetable kingdoms, human reproduction ...I could not find a single error in the Quran. I had to stop and ask myself: if a man was the author of the Quran, how could he have written facts in the 7th Century AD that today are shown to be in keeping with modern scientific knowledge?''

*The Quran mentions a number of scientific facts which were unknown to the world then. Some of them are:

-The moon has no light of its own and that what we see is the reflected light of the sun. (91:1-2),

-The universe came about by a "big bang" or disintegration billions of years ago. (21:30),

-Every living thing began in water. (continuation of 21:30),

-Stages of reproduction of a life in the womb.(22:5),

-Every living thing, including vegetable matter, is created in pairs (male and female). (36:36),

-All celestial body (namely, moon and planets) have their own course of orbit. (7:54 and 21:33),

-Space travel is possible. (55:33), and

-There is also life (in whatever form) in other parts of the universe. (42:29).

-All these scientific facts were discovered only in the last couple of centuries whereas the Quran mentions them 14 centuries ago. How could the Prophet, even if he were educated, have known these fact centuries ahead of recent times?

*Learned Arabs and other experts in the Arabic language acknowledge that the style, diction and rendering in the Quran far excels those in the Hadith. Those in the Quran are inimitable, proving that the Quran is authored by God.

*Umar, later to become Caliph, had wanted to kill the Prophet because of his (Islamic) teachings. One day, Umar heard his sister reading something _ the sound, diction and meaning of which made him halt to listen. His sister, who had secretly converted to Islam, was reading (part of) the Quran. Umar realised that the Words he was listening to could not be the words of man. He submitted to Islam soon after.

*The Quran says: "If the whole of mankind and jinns (spirits) were to come together to produce the like of this Quran, they could not produce the like thereof even if backed up by each other with help and support." (17:88) This is a bold statement indeed. If the Prophet had written the Quran, would he as a human being, dare make such an explosive statement? Would this statement go unchallenged by the learned Arabs of his time?

Prophet Muhammad, being an unlettered person, could not have written the Quran, a Book full of wisdom and one dealing with varied subject matters. The Quran categorically states: "This Quran is not such as can be produced by anyone other than God. (It is a Book) from the Lord of the Worlds." (10:37)

Why do Muslims refer to the Quran as a living miracle?

Many of God's Prophets in the past had performed miracles either to prove that they were sent by God or to help people to achieve certain goals. However, as these miracles were for certain people of the time of the respective Prophets, they are neither tangible nor available today as a living proof. But the Quran is. It is a miracle by itself. When people asked Prophet Muhammad what miracle he had performed, the Prophet pointed to the Quran.

Muslims regard the Quran as a living miracle because, among other reasons, it:

*Is a Book par excellence in the provision of complete guidance for this life and the Hereafter,
*Is available in the language (Arabic) as revealed to the Prophet,
*Is inimitable in diction, sound and rendering,
*Is accurate in its presentation of facts,
*Has remained pure (without interpolation) ,
*Has no contradiction or inconsistencies,
*Has influenced the lives of people, and
*Is responsible for the speedy spread of Islam, even now.

With regard to the Quran being a miracle from the point of view of its influence on people, Maulana Muhammad Ali in his book, "The Religion of Islam", says: "The Quran is a miracle because it brought about the greatest transformation that the world has ever witnessed _ a transformation of the individual, of the family, of the society, of the nation, of the country, an awakening material as well as moral, intellectual and spiritual. It produced an effect, a hundred thousand times greater than that of any other miracle recorded of any Prophet; hence, its claim to be the greatest of all miracles is uncontestable and uncontested. "

Researches on the Quran have been made throughout these 14 centuries. More particularly, in recent years, in the wake of religious enquiries, Quranic scholars, scientists and mathematicians have each, in their own way and knowledge, discovered that the factual contents of the Quran as well as the arrangement of its Words and text point to the fact that the Quran is indeed the living miracle of Islam.

Tip-tip Bagaimana Menjadi Jutawan Daripada Al-Quran

hello readers, salam and happy reading, just wanna share one article which I love to read over and over again...so sorry its in malay, maybe will try to translate it in the future, insya Allah.

Tip-tip Bagaimana Menjadi Jutawan Daripada Al-Quran

 

     
Written by Syamil Yusuff   
Aug 18, 2007 at 11:15 AM

 

Mahmud Ibn Labid r.a. pernah berkata, bahawa beliau mendengar Rasulullah bersabda, “Dua perkara yang tidak disenangi oleh anak Adam. Mati, padahal mati itu adalah lebih baik dari dugaan (kesesatan). Harta yang sedikit, padahal harta yang sedikit meringankan hisab. [1]

Namun sekiranya anda ingin juga menjadi seorang jutawan, Allah s.w.t telah berfirman di dalam surah An-Nuur ayat 37 hingga 38, “(Ibadat itu dikerjakan oleh) orang-orang yang kuat imannya yang tidak dilalaikan oleh perniagaan atau berjual-beli daripada menyebut serta mengingati Allah, dan mendirikan solat serta memberi zakat; mereka takutkan hari (kiamat) yang padanya berbalik-balik hati dan pandangan.”

“(Mereka mengerjakan semuanya itu) supaya Allah membalas mereka dengan sebaik-baik balasan bagi apa yang mereka kerjakan, dan menambahi mereka lagi dari limpah kurniaNya; dan sememangnya Allah memberi rezeki kepada sesiapa yang dikehendakiNya dengan tidak terhitung.”

Bermaksud, dengan mengingati Allah, mendirikan solat, memberi zakat dan sedekah, takutkan hari kiamat kerana akan diadili, seseorang itu akan mendapat limpah kurnia Allah dan pembalasan yang paling baik. Allah sesungguhnya satu-satunya sumber segala rezeki dan Dia akan menambahkan kurniaNya kepada hamba yang mempunyai ciri-ciri seperti di atas.

Kajilah Al-Quran dengan sebenarnya-benarnya, kerana tips untuk menjadi jutawan banyak terdapat di dalam Al-Quran. Terjemahan Al-Quran bermodalkan RM20 di pasaran. Menurut Abu Said r.a., Allah berfirman di dalam sebuah hadith qudsi, “Sesiapa yang disibukkan oleh Al-Quran daripada berzikir dan meminta kepadaKu, maka Aku akan memberikan kepadanya sesuatu yang lebih utama daripada diberikan kepada orang yang meminta kepadaKu” [2]

Sekiranya anda bukan berniat untuk menjadi jutawan, tetapi sekadar ingin hidup sederhana, beribadat kepada Allah. Serta dalam masa yang sama tidak mahu mempunyai bebanan hutang dan dikurniakan kecukupan dalam semua perkara, amalkan membaca Surah Al-Waqiah setiap malam. Menurut Ibnu Mas’ud, Rasulullah s.a.w telah bersabda, “Sesiapa yang membaca surah Al-Waqiah pada setiap malam, ia tidak akan ditimpa kemiskinan selama-lamanya.”[3]

Sekiranya anda sekarang berada di dalam keadaan terdesak, ditimpa kesusahan, memerlukan “fast-cash” untuk sesuatu perkara mustahak, maka ikutlah petua Rasulullah s.a.w. Di dalam sebuah hadith yang diriwayat oleh Huzaifah r.a., apabila Rasulullah s.a.w mengalami kesulitan, beliau akan segera mengerjakan solat.[4] Solat yang dimaksudkan adalah solat sunat. Ini adalah selaras dengan firman Allah di dalam surah Al-Baqarah ayat 45, “Dan mintalah pertolongan (kepada Allah) dengan jalan sabar dan mengerjakan solat; dan sesungguhnya solat itu amatlah berat kecuali kepada orang-orang yang khusyuk”.

Di dalam riwayat lain diceritakan oleh Abdullah bin Salam r.a., ketika keluarga Rasulullah menghadapi sebarang kesempitan rezeki, beliau akan memerintahkan mereka mendirikan solat dan membaca ayat 132 surah Taha.[5]Firman Allah di dalam ayat berkenaan, “Dan perintahkanlah keluargamu serta umatmu mengerjakan sembahyang, dan hendaklah engkau tekun bersabar menunaikannya. Kami tidak meminta rezeki kepadamu, (bahkan) Kamilah yang memberi rezeki kepadamu. Dan (ingatlah) kesudahan yang baik adalah bagi orang-orang yang bertaqwa.”

Kebanyakkan yang mengamalkan tip ini mendapat kemurahan rezeki yang luas dan “low profile”. Mereka tidak terburu-buru dan tergesa-gesa dalam mengejar kesenangan. Kebanyakkan mereka akhirnya menjadi komited dalam beribadat atau melakukan aktiviti dakwah. Mereka hanya melakukan sedikit pekerjaan dunia, namun kurnia yang diperolehi melebihi apa yang mereka kerjakan.

Wallahu’alam.

Al MULK: The Sovereignty

salam everyone!

sorry for long pause of posting..just been so busy with tight schedule of work..

I would like to share an amazing and inspirational videos of sheik Mishary Rashid Alafasy reciting surah 67: Al MULK ( The Sovereignty). He is the imam of Makkah's mosque if i am not mistaken... A bit background on this surah :

Introduction: Surah Al Mulk

It is a 67th surah of the Holy Quran in order. Surah Al Mulk "Sovereignty, Control, Authority" was revealed in Mecca, Arabia on Muhammad (peace be upon him) the last Prophet and Messenger of God (Allah) Almighty .The surah has taken its title from verse 1. The surah describe: That Being has in His hands the full control and authority over everything in the universe. He guarantees the development, nourishment and stability of everything and is the Master of all pleasures and comforts. For this purpose He has determined measures (Laws) over which He has complete control. (The outstanding feature of the system that will be established in this world according to the Divine Law, is that it would be for the good of all humanity. Moreover, the system will be implemented through Laws). The total number of verse in this surah are 30.

The term ‘amalan in its selected form as mentioned in Surat Al Mulk ayat 2 implies any kind of deeds. It is not just the religious deeds (ibadah), but also all that we do which is lawful. It should be done according to the concept of Ihsan and we should exert our efforts to live up according to its implications. The way we look and dress, the way we eat, the way we sleep, our work, our profession, our da’wah, teaching and learning, our relationship with our family, relatives, neighbours, and with others in general - Ihsan should be observed and practiced in all these actions. These actions and good deeds can be considered as ibadah thereof.
