[The Meaning of (al-Khayr) in the Statement of Allah the Exalted: (And Indeed, He Is Intense in His Love of Good)]
Is it not possible to interpret the statement of Allah the Exalted: [al-ʿĀdiyāt:8] meaning: the good here is the horses, that the Sunnah explains the Qur'an in the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): (Goodness is tied in the forelocks of horses until the Day of Resurrection) ?
I have not seen anyone say that the intended meaning of "love of al-Khayr" is horses.And in the Sunnah, the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said: (Goodness is tied to the forelocks of horses) and he did not say "they are good," or say "they are the good." Also, not everyone loves horses. If you were to consider the conditions of the children of Adam, you would find one in a thousand.
And each person has what they desire: one loves camels, one loves sheep, one loves sheep, one loves trade, one loves horses, one loves cars.
The questioner: And the reason for the revelation of the surah.
The Shaykh: This one does not have a reason for revelation.
