By Irshad Mahmood - Director, Siraat-al-Mustaqeem Dawah Centre
For the protection from Dajjal, Iblees, Gog & Magog and all kinds of Devils etc., Allah has given clear guidance in the Quraan. Below are few selected verses to recite and do right actions for our protection.رَّبِّ أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ هَمَزَاتِ الشَّيَاطِينِ وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ رَبِّ أَن يَحْضُرُونِ
"My
Lord! I seek refuge with You from the whisperings (suggestions) of the
Shayatin (devils). And I seek refuge with You, My Lord! lest they may
attend (or come near) me", (Al_Quraan_023.097-098).بِسْمِ اللّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ
قُلْ أَعُوذُ بِرَبِّ الْفَلَقِ
مِن شَرِّ مَا خَلَقَ
وَمِن شَرِّ غَاسِقٍ إِذَا وَقَبَ
وَمِن شَرِّ النَّفَّاثَاتِ فِي الْعُقَدِ
وَمِن شَرِّ حَاسِدٍ إِذَا حَسَدَ
Say:
"I seek refuge with (Allah) the Lord of the daybreak, (1) "From the
evil of what He has created; (2) "And from the evil of the darkening
(night) as it comes with its darkness; (or the moon as it sets or goes
away) (3) "And from the evil of those who practise witchcrafts when
they blow in the knots, (4) "And from the evil of the envier when he
envies." (5), (Al_Quraan_113.001-005).بِسْمِ اللّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ
قُلْ أَعُوذُ بِرَبِّ النَّاسِ
مَلِكِ النَّاسِ
إِلَهِ النَّاسِ
مِن شَرِّ الْوَسْوَاسِ الْخَنَّاسِ
الَّذِي يُوَسْوِسُ فِي صُدُورِ النَّاسِ
مِنَ الْجِنَّةِ وَ النَّاسِ
Say:
"I seek refuge with (Allah) the Lord of mankind, (1) "The King of
mankind (2) "The Ilah (God) of mankind, (3) "From the evil of the
whisperer (devil who whispers evil in the hearts of men) who withdraws
(from his whispering in one's heart after one remembers Allah), (4)
"Who whispers in the breasts of mankind, (5) "Of jinn and men." (6),
(Al_Quraan_114.001-006). اللّهُ
لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ هُوَ الْحَيُّ الْقَيُّومُ لاَ تَأْخُذُهُ سِنَةٌ وَلاَ
نَوْمٌ لَّهُ مَا فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ وَمَا فِي الأَرْضِ مَن ذَا الَّذِي
يَشْفَعُ عِنْدَهُ إِلاَّ بِإِذْنِهِ يَعْلَمُ مَا بَيْنَ أَيْدِيهِمْ
وَمَا خَلْفَهُمْ وَلاَ يُحِيطُونَ بِشَيْءٍ مِّنْ عِلْمِهِ إِلاَّ بِمَا
شَاء وَسِعَ كُرْسِيُّهُ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالأَرْضَ وَلاَ يَؤُودُهُ
حِفْظُهُمَا وَهُوَ الْعَلِيُّ الْعَظِيمُ
Allah
is He besides Whom there is no god, the Ever living, the
Self-subsisting by Whom all subsist; slumber does not overtake Him nor
sleep; whatever is in the heavens and whatever is in the earth is His;
who is he that can intercede with Him but by His permission? He knows
what is before them and what is behind them, and they cannot comprehend
anything out of His knowledge except what He pleases, His knowledge
extends over the heavens and the earth, and the preservation of them
both tires Him not, and He is the Most High, the Great,
(Al_Quraan_002.255).وَأَعِدُّواْ
لَهُم مَّا ٱسۡتَطَعۡتُم مِّن قُوَّةٍ۬ وَمِن رِّبَاطِ ٱلۡخَيۡلِ
تُرۡهِبُونَ بِهِۦ عَدُوَّ ٱللَّهِ وَعَدُوَّڪُمۡ وَءَاخَرِينَ مِن
دُونِهِمۡ لَا تَعۡلَمُونَهُمُ ٱللَّهُ يَعۡلَمُهُمۡۚ وَمَا تُنفِقُواْ
مِن شَىۡءٍ۬ فِى سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ يُوَفَّ إِلَيۡكُمۡ وَأَنتُمۡ لَا
تُظۡلَمُونَ
Prepare any strength
you can muster against them, and any cavalry posts with which you can
overawe Allah’s enemy and your own enemy as well, plus others besides
them whom you do not know. Allah however knows them! Anything you spend
for Allah’s sake will be repaid you, and you will not be harmed,
(Al_Quraan_008.060).Saving a Life is like Saving the Whole World, (Ref. Al_Quraan_005.032).Make
sure not to abuse anyone including your parents and do true justice
among all without any discrimination, since those who don’t do true
justice are disbelievers, (Ref: Al_Quraan_005.044-047).Enter into Islaam completely, (Ref: Al_Quraan_002_208).Those
who will uplift the Quraan in sprit and those who will support and
promote them practically may be protected by Allah. We must know the
demand of the Quraan.Generally people take meaning of reading or reciting the Quraan as just read without understanding, which is totally wrong. The demand of the Quraan is below what every Muslims must know:1> to believe in the Quraan;2> to read it;3> to understand it; Ponder on it;4> to act upon its teachings (No Changes without Right ACTION); and5> to convey its message and teachings to others;Those who don’t read the Quraan with understanding/translation and do not Practice on Allah’s commandments are like ASS/Donkey carrying books, (Ref: Al_Quraan_062.005).… Recite the Quraan in slow, measured rhythmic tones, (Al_Quraan_073.004).(So don’t rush to finish it, instead take your time to understand each and every Ayaat and reflect on it.)Please read my article http://www.global-right-path.com/Ummah-Reformer/MR_Quraan_Understanding.htmThere are clear messages/directions in the Quraan and we must try to understand it and reflect on it in sprit. Here let us understand what messages/directions/lessons Allah wants to take it and reflect on it.Prophet Muhammad (Peace-Be-Upon-Him) said to recite/read Surah Al-Kahf every Friday means We MUST have to take Lessons/Guidance from it, keep remember it, Act Rightly on it and inform others as well.Lessons in Surah Al-Kahf (chapter-018):
First of all, in this Surah Allah gives to us 4 different but INTERESTING stories to take lessons from it and reflect on it. Let us explore each along with the lessons we get from each of them.Lesson-1: Peacefully Migrate to Save Your Faith/Lives (Ref: Al_Quraan_018.009-026):
It’s
the story of young men who lived in a disbelieving town where it is
hard to worship, so they decide to migrate for the sake of Allah and
run away. Allah rewards them with mercy in the cave and protection from
the elements of nature. The lesson of this story is the 'Trial of
Faith', so if one has trial of faith and there is no way to protect his faith/life then he must peacefully migrate to some other location. You MUST migrate to save your Faiths/Lives.Lesson-2: Thankful to Allah (Ref: Al_Quraan_018.023-024):
A
story of a man whom Allah blessed with two beautiful gardens, but the
man forgot to thank the One who blessed him with everything and he even
dared to doubt Allah regarding the afterlife. So his garden was
destroyed - he regretted it, but was too late and his regret did not
benefit him. Always be Thankful to Allah by following his Commandments in Sprit.Lesson-3: Trial of Power/Wealth/Knowledge/Wisdom (Ref: Al_Quraan_018.065-082):
When
Musa (Peace-Be-Upon-Him) was asked “Who is the most knowledgeable of
the people of Earth?” Musa (Peace-Be-Upon-Him) said that it was him as
he assumed he was the only prophet on Earth at the time. But Allah
revealed to him that there’s someone else who knows more than him about
certain things. Musa (Peace-Be-Upon-Him) traveled looking for him and
learned how divine wisdom can sometimes be hidden in matters which we
perceive as bad. Never be Proud of your Power/Wealth/Knowledge/Wisdom etc. RATHER Always Be Humble and Down to Earth.Lesson-4: Global Knowledge/Wisdom to Save Humanity (Ref: Al_Quraan_018.083-101):
Allah
mentions the story of a great king who was given knowledge and power
travelling the world helping people and spreading all that’s good. He
was able to overcome the problem of Gog/Magog (Yajooj-Majooj) by building a massive dam with the help of people whom he could not even understand. Expose
Yourselves if You Have any Wisdom to Save Global Humanity Without any
Discrimination and/or Be with Those Who Have Global Knowledge/Wisdom to
Save Humanity in Sprit. Media Must Play an Active Role on Promoting Global Wisdom to Save Humanity.Stop sleeping in 7th century. AWAKE all to revive Islaam for 21st century and beyond in the light of the Quraan to save humanity without any discrimination.
