Introduction

All praise is to Allah, the One and the only. The First Who has no beginning, and the Last Who has no end. He has no companion and no equal. Neither was he begotten and He has begotten none. The Creator of the Heavens and the Earth, all the things we can see and all the things we can not see.

Our lives, hearts and souls are in His hands. He Created the Jinn and Humans to worship Him, without needing their worship. Every thing will perish except Him. His Mercy overcomes His Anger. He guides us through, His Prophets and Messengers, to Him and to the right way in life; but neither our good deeds benefit Him, nor will our sins harm Him. He Sees and Hears all things and takes every thing concerning us into account. It is He, whom there is no escape from except to Him. He only is worthy of our obedience and worship.

Gratitude, to Allah the Highest, who bestowed the bounties of, His Faith, Book, and Messenger upon us, with purification and guidance. Prayer and peace upon, Mohamed Ibn Abd Allah, the messenger of Allah, the last of His prophets and messengers, prayer and peace upon them all. We testify that he delivered the message and fulfilled his trust. For this we ask Allah the Highest to grant him the Wasela, the highest state in Paradise due to one person only, we ask Allah the Highest to make him that man.

This is not an explanation of the Quran, for the Quran is Allah’s very word and no one can explain Allah’s very word. This is an attempt to throw a little light on some of the meanings of the Aiahs, and extract lessons or rules from them.

My policy has always been the following:-

1- State the Historical background to the Aiah. I should point out that the Quran is not a History Book, however knowing the historical background of the Aiahs helps us to understand them.

2- I tried to throw light on the meaning of Aiahs of the Quran by other Aiahs, then the Hadith, the authenticated ones. The references to each Hadith are written after them. The translation of the meaning of the Hadith is my humble effort. Also the translations of the meanings of the Quran are my humble efforts, after referring to other sources and translations.

3- I have referred to a number of well respected Tafseer books, Dictionaries, Hadith books, Index of The Quran and Hadith, Serah Books (History of the life of the Prophet Mohamed, prayer and peace upon him).

Here is a list of references:

Tafseer Books:

1- Tafseer Ibn Kather.

2- Tafseer El- Tabary.

3- Tafseer El-Naysabory

4- Tafseer El-Qurtoby.

5- In the Shadow of the Quran.

6- Al-Asas Fe el Tafseer

7- Tafseer El-Galaleen.

The code for the Hadith Books will appear as follows:

B: Bukhari M: Muslim Mal: Malek A: Ahmed D: Abu Dawood
