Exegesis of Verses from Surat al-Waqi'ah
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Then Allah the Exalted said: (In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful) [Surat al-Qamar: 1] The Basmala is a distinct verse with which every surah begins, except Surat al-Bara'ah. The Basmala is connected to an omitted word, which is estimated to be a verb appropriate to what it was started with.If we say: In the name of Allah, I read.
The estimation of the speech was: In the name of Allah, I read.
And if we wanted to eat and said: In the name of Allah.
The estimation was: In the name of Allah, I eat.
And if we wanted to slaughter a sheep or the like, we said: In the name of Allah, I slaughter.
And therefore the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: (And whoever does not slaughter, let him slaughter in the name of Allah,or he said: in the name of Allah) .
Therefore: The preposition and the noun in the genitive case in the Basmala are connected to an omitted word, which is estimated to be a verb, not a noun, and it is delayed, not advanced, and it is appropriate to what it was started with.
We said: It is estimated to be a verb, not a noun; because the original for the operator is that it be a verb, and therefore the verb performs its function without any condition. As for nouns, they do not perform their functions except with conditions. The verbal noun has conditions until it performs the function of a verb. The active participle operates with conditions. The passive participle likewise operates with conditions. The descriptive adjective, all operators other than the verb do not operate except with conditions. As for the verb, it operates without condition. We estimated it to be delayed to seek blessing in starting with "In the name of Allah,"And secondly: to convey exclusivity,Meaning: that I read in the name of Allah, not in the name of anyone else. So we now advance the delayed word to seek blessing in starting with "In the name of Allah."
Second: To convey exclusivity, we estimate it to be appropriate to what it was started with, because it is more indicative of the intended meaning.For example: If we wanted to read and said: (In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful) the estimation is: In the name of Allah, I began.
Does the listener understand that you want to read? No.
He understands that you want to begin,But if you said: In the name of Allah, I read, he understands that you want to read. Therefore, we said that it is estimated to be an appropriate verb.
This Basmala is a verse from the Book of Allah. The person in a state of major ritual impurity does not recite it in the sense that it is the Qur'an, but he recites it in the sense that it is dhikr (remembrance of Allah),If he wanted to eat and said: In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful, so it is not forbidden for him,But if he wanted to read and said: In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful, while he is in a state of major ritual impurity,We said: this is forbidden for him.
As for its meaning: (In the name of Allah) is a singular noun in the genitive case, so it encompasses all names,If you say: In the name of Allah, so it is as if you said: With every name of the names of Allah. And the names of Allah the Exalted are all good and blessing. So much so that a person may slaughter an animal with a sharp tool and the blood flows, but he does not mention the name, and it becomes carrion that is not lawful. If he mentions the name, it becomes pure and lawful. And a person may eat, and Satan may share in his eating and eat with him, and the blessing is removed from his food.When he says: In the name of Allah, Satan refrains from eating with him.
And a person may mention the name when approaching his wife, so if a child is conceived between them, Satan will never harm him.If he says: (In the name of Allah, O Allah, keep us away from Satan, and keep Satan away from what You have provided for us) .
And a person may mention the name during wudu' (ablution), and it will be valid. If he leaves off the mention of the name during wudu', it will be invalid according to some scholars.
Summary: That the entire Basmala is blessing.
As for (Allah), it is a proper name for the Lord of the worlds (Exalted and Majestic is He), and no one else is called by it.
(The Most Gracious): The One possessing the vast, general mercy for everything.
(The Most Merciful): The specific mercy about which Allah said: [Surat al-Ahzab: 43] .
And it was said: The Most Gracious is considered in terms of the attribute, and The Most Merciful is considered in terms of the action.
The Hour has come near, and the moon has split [in two].
