Bismillahirahmanirahim.
Hello everibadi.
Are you all healthy? Anyone affected by the floods? It is very sad because the devastation that hit the Klang Valley, and Selangor is so severe, that it has claimed many innocent lives. These are all tests from Him, for us to always remember His power. Therefore, let us not murmur and say bad things to the Creator because He has sent down this test. In fact, we should pray and be thankful. There may be wisdom behind the events that befell us throughout our lives on this earth.
Sharing is caring. This is my help for someone who is affected by the heavy flood. May Allah swt ease you everything. Amiin.
Alright. Today, I would like to tell you guys about the story behind Surah Al-Feel. Did you know the meaning of "Al-Feel"? Yes, true. It is about "The Elephant". What is the relation between the elephant with this surah? So today I will post my reflection regarding this surah and about our entire life.
If you know the detail regarding "the elephant" and this surah, this is a suitable interesting video that you could learn what actual incident of this surah.
The Lesson:
1. Makkah is the Holy Land, which is a blessed land.
The 105th chapter in the Quran highlights how Allah s.w.t safeguards the city of Makkah from an evil tyrant who wishes to bring harm to the land. This is proof that Allahโs house of worship, the Kaabah, will always be under his protection. It also illustrated His promise to Prophet Ibrahim a.s. to protect Makkah as it is the beloved land of Allah and His prophets a.s.
While standing at a location in al-Hazwarah (a place in Makkah), Rasulullah s.a.w. said:
ููุงูููููู ุฅูููููู ููุฎูููุฑู ุฃูุฑูุถู ุงูููููู ููุฃูุญูุจูู ุฃูุฑูุถู ุงูููููู ุฅูููููู ููุงูููููู ูููููุงู ุฃููููู ุฃูุฎูุฑูุฌูุชู ู ููููู ู ูุง ุฎูุฑูุฌูุชูโBy Allah, you are the best land of Allah and the dearest of the land of Allah to me. By Allah, had I not been expelled from you, I would never have left.โ (Sunan Ibn Majah)
Makkah is indeed a land blessed by Allah s.w.t ever since He first created heaven and earth. It is the land where Prophet Muhammad s.a.w was born, grew up, and received the first revelation.
2. Do not underestimate the power of dua and
Surah Al-Feel discusses the obliteration of Abraha's military from Sana'a (Yemen). Abraha filled in as a lead representative for the Abyssinian ruler, whose realm stretched out to Yemen. To satisfy his ruler, Abraha intended to foster his nation and reinforce the realm's power. He was envious of the consideration committed to Makkah. Abraha understood that Sana'a required a milestone like Kaabah to draw in more individuals and convert the demonstration of the journey to his country. He expected to challenge the place of love of Makkah.
Therefore, under his authority, Abraha told that a terrific and complex house of God is developed. He named the recently assembled church "al-Qalis", anticipating that more people should thrive his nation and lift its financial scene. Notwithstanding, Al-Qalis neglected to speak to and was not gotten well by the Arabs.
Abraha's desire towards Makkah developed further and was uncontainable. He begrudged the Kaabah significantly more and chose to annihilate it so that individuals would presently don't have the option to visit it. The green-looked at Abraha arranged an enormous armed force incorporating elephants fully intent on ingraining dread into the hearts of individuals of Makkah and making gigantic obliteration the Kaabah.
All things considered, in a valley close to Makkah, Allah s.w.t. sent rushes of birds, every one conveying stones. The birds then, at that point, started to air-strike the soldiers and dropped the stones, hitting each man. The stones were extremely destructive in that they disintegrated tissue and caused blasting consumption to their bodies. Numerous kicked the bucket momentarily while some figured out how to escape back to their nation, including Abraha. In spite of enduring the scene, Abraha surrendered to the enormous aggravation and died. Such was the fury of Allah against the despot Abraha.
3. Envy is a disease that brings to destruction.
After reflecting on Surah Al-Feel, one might see that the part flags the guarantee of Allah s.w.t for two of his workers. In the primary example, it has been featured that the Prophet Ibrahim a.s. made a petition to Allah s.w.t for the security of the Makkah land. Curiously, he made a request that was for himself as well as it was for a long-term benefit and the unexpected futureโa supplication that includes enduring results.
The other worker whom Allah s.w.t. acknowledged his Dua promptly was Abdul Muttalib. He was the granddad of Prophet Muhammad s.a.w. also was the clan head of Makkah then, at that point. At the point when Abraha was moving toward Makkah, Abdul Muttalib comprehended that it was practically silly to battle against the Elephant armed force. He perceived that the danger was genuine, and nobody would have the option to stop Abraha's pitiless desire.
Abdul Muttalib understood their condition and subsequently, he requested individuals of Makkah to empty the region and track down cover for wellbeing Simultaneously, he put his confidence in Allah s.w.t. also asked for the insurance of Makkah and Kaabah, the place of Allah. Abdul Muttalib, the head of Makkah, argued:
Oh, my Lord, thereโs nothing I can rely on except to You!O my Lord, by your protection, prevent them from coming!Indeed those who intend to endanger this house of Yours are your adversary,Indeed, they are unable to oppose your authority.
In the long run, Allah addressed Abdul Muttalib's call. At the point when the elephant armed force was getting ready to walk towards Kaabah, Allah sent them rushes of birds and requested them to annihilate Abraha and his military to destroy.
The response for petitions is simply and valid. Also, the impact of the heavenly answer could come past one's creative mind. Very much like the supplication of Prophet Ibrahim a.s. in which the sacred place that is known for Makkah stays favored by Allah till today. In particular, we should build our confidence in Allah when we participate in our petition to Him. Along these lines as to how Abdul Muttalib did when nothing was left for him to do but to trust Allah The Almighty.
