Discussion on the exegesis of Surat al-Duha.

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : As for what follows: We still have remaining from the exegesis of the surah we began with last night, and completed part of this morning, some verses from it. What is the surah? What is the surah?
The student: Al-Duha.

The Shaykh : Al-Duha. The entire surah is Al-Duha. And where did we end up in it? Please.
The student: ... .

The Shaykh : Yes.
The student: ... .

The Shaykh : No, I am not resting.
The student:
Did He not find you an orphan and give [you] refuge? ألم يجدك يتيما فآوى
[Ad-Duhaa 93:6]


The Shaykh : Correct. May Allah bless you. We mentioned previously that Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He) said:
Did He not find you an orphan ألم يجدك يتيما
[Ad-Duhaa 93:6]
and He did not say "So He sheltered you." And likewise, the two verses after that did not use the pronoun referring to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). We mentioned that there are benefits in this. So, who knows them? Please.
The first benefit: The coherence of the verses, meaning the endings of the verses are coherent. This is one. What is the second benefit?
The student: ... .

The Shaykh : Meaning, generalization. Good. May Allah bless you.
Did He not find you an orphan and give [you] refuge? ألم يجدك يتيما فآوى
[Ad-Duhaa 93:6]
That is, He sheltered you and He sheltered through you.
And He found you lost and guided [you], ووجدك ضالا فهدى
[Ad-Duhaa 93:7]
He guided you and He guided through you.
And He found you poor and made [you] self-sufficient. ووجدك عائلا فأغنى
[Ad-Duhaa 93:8]
He enriched you and He enriched through you.
The evidence for this is from a hadith of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), which we also mentioned. What is this hadith? Please.
The student: ... .

The Shaykh : Correct. Well done. The evidence for this is that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) addressed the Ansar (may Allah be pleased with them) and said to them:
Did I not find you lost, so Allah guided you through me? And were you a burden, so Allah enriched you through me? And were you scattered, so Allah united you through me? ألم أجدكم ضلالا فهداكم الله بي وكنتم عالة فأغناكم الله بي وكنتم متفرقين فألفكم الله بي
Every time he said a word, they said, "Allah and His Messenger are more generous," and they acknowledged it. (May Allah be pleased with them).
