Merged: Quranic verse that had a profound impact on you

Without further ado,

" On no soul does Allah place a burden greater than it can bear. it gets every good that it earns, and it suffers every ill that it earns…" 2:286 (Al-Baqara)

The intention of this thread is obviously not to belittle any portion of the Qur’an by emphasizing on particular ayat, but to get an idea of how certain verses have had great impact on guppies. This particular verse, when i read it, left me teary-eyed.

re: Merged: Quranic verse that had a profound impact on you

Can’t decide…

at one hand Surah AL Fatiha tells me how we should ask things from ALLAH:swt: and it gives us news for the two great Muslim Ummah of the past, present day Jews and Christians, and what they became; it teaches me not to become like them. On the other hand Surah Baqarah at it start rightaway defines for me that faith is not faith unless it’s blind… Faith in the hidden that is…

Next time, Surah Aal-e-Imran further teaches me the histroy of previous Muslim Ummah and how they were doomed from the chosen one for they used to practice the BOOK in parts - the parts they liked but rejected the rest, and how they used to disobey their prophets and used to kill them, interpreting the divine text on their own… The same surah tells me that Muslims are only best when they call others to enjoin good and fight against the evil from within to outside…

then there are surahs that leave impact on me so that I know what to do in life in certain situations for instance Surah Nissa..

I love Surah Tauba but I think I feel more scared of it than the love of Divine music in it…

Surah Rehman - Uroos ul Quran - was the first biggest surah that I memorized (The most of it)… I love it’s recitation in the voice of Shaikh Qari Abdul Basit Abdul Samad and love the very fact that how this surah addresses both Humans and Jinns at the same time.

Surah Waqiah is the seocond Surah which I love to hear it in Qari Abdul Basit’s voice. Infact, I memorized it’s first Rukoo after keep hearing it in his voice.

Surah Yaseen… the heart of Quran is the loveliest surah of all. It’s description of how the righteous will meet ALLAH and how the peace from ALLAH be given to them, brings tears if one knows what each word means in its very context…

Surah Ghashiya.. I love reciting it myself while I am driving on a 100 Mile journey twice a week to work…

The whole last Juz of Quran is amazing and I can’t even dare to compare any of it anyway…

every surah is so much powerful that you can not simply make selection out of them… Every Surah of the last Juz is a history of an event in itself…

Barakallaho Lee walakum …

re: Merged: Quranic verse that had a profound impact on you

If Allah findeth any good in your hearts, He will give you something better than what has been taken from you, and He will forgive you: for Allah is Oft-forgiving, Most Merciful.

re: Merged: Quranic verse that had a profound impact on you

Ghazi Sultan Salah-ud-Din Ayoobi Bhai jaan… it does say it in the opening ayaahs of Surah At Tauba … The only thing is that he even does not know what is the context .. He is only feared of getting slayed for he is an idolator that is, a hindu for that matter.

If you are keen to know the context then know that those ayaahs were sent down after the idolators of Makkah broke the treaty of Hudaiybiya and were waging wars against Muslims. The ayaahs came down against those Terrorists in that society at that time.

Surah Fatiha...

1:1 In the name of God, Most Gracious, Most Merciful.

1:2 Praise be to God, the Cherisher and Sustainer of the world;

1:3 Most Gracious, Most Merciful;

1:4 Master of the Day of Judgment.

1:5 Thee do we worship, and Thine aid we seek.

1:6 Show us the straight way,

1:7 The way of those on whom Thou hast bestowed Thy Grace, those whose (portion) is not wrath, and who go not astray.

I’am sorry u r right, but he did take it out of context. It is ok he will get whats coming to him on the Day of Judgement when he has to face Allah :swt:

re: Merged: Quranic verse that had a profound impact on you

My favorite Surah is Al-Mu'minun.

re: Merged: Quranic verse that had a profound impact on you

Bhai Salah ud Din:

Just a word of caution. I understand your sentiments but we can not and should not start saying that what one will get on the day of judgement for all we know is that as long as person is alive, he/she is a potential muslim. I or you do not know if that person reverts to Islam and becomes a better Muslim than us. Right?

re: Merged: Quranic verse that had a profound impact on you

Oh Iam sorry...I should read the topic first huh. The are too many verses but the surah that has the most impact on me is Surah As-Nur.


Rightousness of the Faith...

Umm... heh u r right again I should not do that. :)

Surah Rehman, Which discuss every thing from begining to end of life.

re: Merged: Quranic verse that had a profound impact on you

Very nice thread :k:

I find english translation very hollow, firstly because it is a foreign language and secondly translations are quite old …

Usually most of us do not ponder over the verses ( me too ). But some verses are so captivating and powerful that they make your heart skip one or two beats…

Thats what happend when I can across this chapter..

[thumb=H]sura-taqweer16977_8747287.JPG[/thumb]

Sura Taqweer verse number 7, 8. The address is so heart wrenching that I can not imagine how people of that time would have responded to this.

though, the translation can not explain the acrimony for that action, contained in the verse. Still one can imagine how some listener who had performed the grevous act in the past, would have reacted at that time…

re: Merged: Quranic verse that had a profound impact on you

And guard yourselves against a day in which you will be brought back to Allah. Then every soul will be paid in full that which it had earned, and they will not be wronged. 2:281

*It is reported to be the last verse to be revealed *

re: Merged: Quranic verse that had a profound impact on you

Al-Qur'an: 12:53. "Nor do I absolve my own self (of blame): the (human) soul is certainly prone to evil, unless my Lord do bestow His Mercy: but surely my Lord is Oft- forgiving, Most Merciful."

I find great relief in this verse. I keep reminding myself of this verse so that I don't myself as being better than anyone. This is the Prophet Joseph (pbuh) whom Muhammad (pbuh) declared the most noble of all Prophets (pbut) in terms of lineage. If he is not safe from Nafs-al-Ammaara, who are we?

Favorite Surah: Al-Waqi'ah.
I don't even have to say why. If someone does not fall in love with it after reading it once, they have no heart.

re: Merged: Quranic verse that had a profound impact on you

Very True

re: Merged: Quranic verse that had a profound impact on you

I’m half done with the second surah this week :blush: Can’t wait to read the rest :smiley:

re: Merged: Quranic verse that had a profound impact on you

Beautiful choice…

It is said, never ask Allah :swt: for justice but always ask for mercy…Because if justice was served, well, your sins are known better to Him than to yourself…Would you like justice then?

So His Mercy and Forgiveness it is that shelters us, in this life and the next…
