Al-Anbiyā’

Ayah: 1

ٱقۡتَرَبَ لِلنَّاسِ حِسَابُهُمۡ وَهُمۡ فِي غَفۡلَةٖ مُّعۡرِضُونَ

1. The (time of) of their reckoning) and Judgment) draws near for the people, while they are in heedlessness¹ turning away.

1. A common disease that we find among many people today is the disease of heedlessness and negligence, in the Islamic context it is the sin of forgetting Allāh and the purpose behind one’s existence and one’s duty to Allāh 'God', and simultaneously forgetting one’s eventual abode. This phenomenon is becoming more and more widespread among many people as they move further and further away from the true religion of God, Islam, and indulge themselves deeper into the world and what it has to offer of ephemeral pleasures. They get taken away by the fast-paced society they live in today and become lost in it as the world pulls them deeper into their state of heedlessness. Allāh has described such people in the Qur’an as having insight into the affairs of the wordly life while being completely heedless and negligent of the affairs of the Hereafter life.

Ayah: 2

مَا يَأۡتِيهِم مِّن ذِكۡرٖ مِّن رَّبِّهِم مُّحۡدَثٍ إِلَّا ٱسۡتَمَعُوهُ وَهُمۡ يَلۡعَبُونَ

2. There comes not to them a reminder from their Lord (Allāh) as a recent but they listen to it while they play,

Ayah: 3

لَاهِيَةٗ قُلُوبُهُمۡۗ وَأَسَرُّواْ ٱلنَّجۡوَى ٱلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُواْ هَلۡ هَٰذَآ إِلَّا بَشَرٞ مِّثۡلُكُمۡۖ أَفَتَأۡتُونَ ٱلسِّحۡرَ وَأَنتُمۡ تُبۡصِرُونَ

3. Distracted2 their hearts. And they conceal the private conversation those who do wrong (saying): "Is this (prophet) except a human being like you?
So would you approach the magic while you see (it)?"

2. There will be terrible times in the last days. Most people will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, ungodly, ungrateful... Being ungrateful to Allāh means turning away from him and His messenger, the Prophet Muhammad. That is why the Qur’an teaches us to carefully examine our hearts.

Ayah: 4

قَالَ رَبِّي يَعۡلَمُ ٱلۡقَوۡلَ فِي ٱلسَّمَآءِ وَٱلۡأَرۡضِۖ وَهُوَ ٱلسَّمِيعُ ٱلۡعَلِيمُ

5. Rather they said, "This (Qur’an) is muddled dreams. Rather, he has invented it. Rather, he himself is a poet; so let him bring us a Sign like the former 'Prophets' were sent with."

7.We did not send before you 'Muhammad' except men to whom We revealed (the Message), so ask the people of the Reminder if you do not know.

Ayah: 8

وَمَا جَعَلۡنَٰهُمۡ جَسَدٗا لَّا يَأۡكُلُونَ ٱلطَّعَامَ وَمَا كَانُواْ خَٰلِدِينَ

8. We did not make them (the prophets) bodies that would not eat food, nor were they immortals.
