02 Surah Al Baqarah Sheikh Abu Bakr Al Shatri (FULL)

Sheikh Abu Bakr Al Shatri Surah Al Baqarah (FULL) The merit of reciting Surah Al-Baqarah in the home Question:  “The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: Do not make your houses graves. Verily, Satan does not enter a house in which Surah Al-Baqarah is recited. Does this refer to reciting Surah Al-Baqarah only once when a person buys a new house, or each year, or each night? Is it sufficient to listen to the recitation on a cassette recorder?” Answer:  “There is no specified number of times for reciting Surah Al-Baqarah, but the Hadith indicates the legitimacy of filling houses with Salah (Prayer) and recitation of the Qur'an. It also indicates that Satan does not approach the houses in which Surah Al-Baqarah is recited. Furthermore, not fixing a certain number of times for reciting this Surah signifies the desirability of reciting it frequently so as to ward off Satan and seek the great reward associated with that, as you will earn a good deed for every letter you recite, and a good deed gets a tenfold reward, as mentioned in another Hadith. May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.” The Permanent Committee for Scholarly Research and Ifta' Shaykh 'Abdul-'Azeez bin 'Abdullaah bin Baaz Shaykh 'Abdul-'Azeez Aal ash-Shaykh Shaykh ‘Abdullah al-Ghudayyaan Shaykh Saalih al-Fawzaan Shaykh Bakr Abu Zayd Source: www.alifta.net - The third question of Fatwa no. 18072 Tafsir Ibn Kathir The Last two Ayah of Surat ul Baqarah The Messenger (Muhammad ) believes in what has been sent down to him from his Lord, and (so do) the believers. Each one believes in Allâh, His Angels, His Books, and His Messengers. They say, “We make no distinction between one another of His Messengers” – and they say, “We hear, and we obey. (We seek) Your Forgiveness, our Lord, and to You is the return (of all).” (Al-Baqarah 2:285) Allâh burdens not a person beyond his scope. He gets reward for that (good) which he has earned, and he is punished for that (evil) which he has earned. “Our Lord! Punish us not if we forget or fall into error, our Lord! Lay not on us a burden like that which You did lay on those before us (Jews and Christians); our Lord! Put not on us a burden greater than we have strength to bear. Pardon us and grant us Forgiveness. Have mercy on us. You are our Maulâ (Patron, Suppor-ter and Protector, etc.) and give us victory over the disbelieving people.” (Al-Baqarah 2:286) The Virtue of These Ayah From Ibn ‘Abbas ” who said: “While Jibra’eel (Gibrael) ” `May Peace be upon him’ was sitting with the Prophet !, he heard the opening of a gate above him. So he raised his head and said: `This is a gate from the shies that has opened today, which has never opened before this day.’ So an angel descended from it (the gate). So he Jibra’eel ” said: “This is an angel that has descended to the earth, which has never descended except today. He gave Salam and said: ‘Receive glad tidings [Oh Muhammad ! with two lights which have been given to you, that have never been given to a Prophet before you: The Opening of the Book (i.e. Surat Al- Fatihah) and the end of Surat Al-Baqarah. Never do you read a letter from either of the two (Surahs) except that you are given it.( Which means that you are given its reward (i.e. the reward of recitation)) (Reported by Muslim) (Taken from Mukhtasar Sahih Muslim with Shaykh AI-Albani’s editing, p.553, Hadith no. 2094.) Tafsir Ibn Kathir Allah said, (Each one believes in Allah, His Angels, His Books, and His Messengers. (They say,) “We make no distinction between one another of His Messengers.”) Therefore, each of the believers believes that Allah is the One and Only and the Sustainer, there is no deity worthy of worship except Him and there is no Lord except Him. The believers also believe in all Allah’s Prophets and Messengers, in the Books that were revealed from heaven to the Messengers and Prophets, who are indeed the servants of Allah. Further, the believers do not differentiate between any of the Prophets, such as, believing in some of them and rejecting others. Rather, all of Allah’s Prophets and Messengers are, to the believers, truthful, righteous, and they were each guided to the path of righteousness, even when some of them bring what abrogates the Law of some others by Allah’s leave. Later on, the Law of Muhammad, the Final Prophet and Messenger from Allah, abrogated all the laws of the Prophets before him. So the Last Hour will commence while Muhammad’s Law remains the only valid Law, and all the while a group of his Ummah will always be on the path of truth, apparent and dominant. http://www.salafisounds.com/ http://www.learnaboutislam.co.uk telegram.me/taqwadaily
