 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yaumul Jumuat, 13th day of Rajab, 1447AH, Friday, 2nd January, 2026. TAFSEER OF Qur’an 107 SUURATUL MAAUUN, WITH CONTEXT, COMMENTARY, MEANINGS, and PRACTICAL LESSONS WE CAN APPLY IN OUR DAILY LIFE. BismilLah. 


Alhamdulillah for granting us the opportunity to be part of this blessed day of the week. We praise HIM for HIS guidance and blessings. We send our sincere salutations to our beloved Messenger of ALLAH sallallahu alaihi wasallam. 


Let's start studying suuratul Maauun (Qur’an 107). Main Theme: True faith is shown through sincerity in worship and compassion toward people.


This suurah was revealed during the Makkan period when the Quraysh outwardly claimed religion but lacked mercy and social responsibility. Orphans were oppressed. The poor were ignored

Prayer was performed as a display, not sincere devotion. ALLAH Azzawajal exposes hypocrisy, teaching that religion is not rituals alone, but moral responsibility and kindness.


Verse 1

أَرَأَيْتَ الَّذِي يُكَذِّبُ بِالدِّينِ

“Have you seen the one who denies the Judgment?”

Commentary

“Deen” here means the Day of Judgment, The Recompense and the Final Rewards. Denial is not always verbal, behavior can also deny faith. Someone who believes they will not be accountable acts without conscience.

🔹 Key Point: True belief in the Hereafter changes how we treat others.


Verse 2

فَذَٰلِكَ الَّذِي يَدُعُّ الْيَتِيمَ

“That is the one who repels the orphan.”

Commentary

“Yaduʿʿu” = pushes away harshly.

Orphans symbolize society’s most vulnerable. Cruelty toward them reflects a hard heart

🔹 Islam measures faith by how we treat the weak. To be continued tomorrow in Shaa ALLAH. May ALLAH Azzawajal keep guiding and protecting us from any satanic influences. Aameen.


DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yaum As-sabt, 14th day of Rajab, 1447AH, Saturday, 3rd January, 2026. TAFSEER OF Qur’an 107 SUURATUL MAAUUN, WITH CONTEXT, COMMENTARY, MEANINGS, and PRACTICAL LESSONS WE CAN APPLY IN OUR DAILY LIFE continues. BismilLah. 


Let's continue from yesterday's reminder with our studies of suuratul Maauun (الماعون).


Verse 3

وَلَا يَحُضُّ عَلَىٰ طَعَامِ الْمِسْكِينِ

“And does not encourage the feeding of the poor.”

Commentary

Not only refusing to feed, but discouraging others

Islam values promoting good, not silent indifference

🔹 Faith includes social responsibility.

Verse 4–5

فَوَيْلٌ لِّلْمُصَلِّينَ ۝ الَّذِينَ هُمْ عَن صَلَاتِهِمْ سَاهُونَ

“So woe to those who pray, those who are heedless of their prayer.”

Commentary

This is not about people who forget occasionally. It refers to those who:

Delay prayers intentionally, Pray carelessly, Lack humility and sincerity

🔹 Prayer without presence of heart is spiritually dangerous.


Verse 6

الَّذِينَ هُمْ يُرَاءُونَ

“Those who make a show of their deeds.”

Commentary

Riyā’ (showing off) destroys reward.

Prayer becomes a performance, not worship

📖 The Prophet ﷺ said:

“What I fear most for you is minor shirk: showing off.” (Ahmad)

Verse 7

وَيَمْنَعُونَ الْمَاعُونَ

“And they withhold simple assistance.”

Commentary

“Al-Māʿūn” refers to:

Small kindnesses, Lending simple items. Everyday acts of help

🔹 Islam values even the smallest good deeds. To be continued tomorrow in Shaa ALLAH. May ALLAH Azzawajal keep guiding and protecting us from any satanic influences. Aameen.

DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yaumul ahad, 15th day of Rajab, 1447AH, Sunday, 4th January, 2026. PRACTICAL LESSONS FROM SUURATUL MAAUUN FOR OUR DAILY LIFE. BismilLah.


Let's continue with our studies of suuratul Maauun.


1. Treat the Vulnerable with Honor.

Orphans, widows, refugees, the elderly. Supporting them strengthens their eemaan. 

2. Feed & Support the Poor

Even encouraging others counts.

Charity is not just money, it’s also caring. 

3. Improve Quality of Prayer. Let's Pray on time. Focus with humility (khushūʿ). Avoid rushing or showing off

4. Checking Our Intentions:

Ask: Am I doing this for ALLAH Azzawajal sake or for people to see and praise me as a good person?

5. Never Underestimate Small Good Deeds: Smiling, Lending items,

Helping neighbors

Small kindnesses protect faith.


Let's note that; “True Islam is not only in the mosque, but in mercy, humility, and everyday kindness.”

Suurat al-Maauun warns us that prayer alone does not save us. Islam demands, Sincere worship

Soft hearts, Active compassion.

Let our salah shape our character.

Let our faith show in how we treat others. May ALLAH Azzawajal keep guiding and protecting us from any satanic influences. Aameen.

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm Al-Khamis. 25th day of RAJAB, 1444AH (Thursday 16th February. 2023). TOLERANCE WITH PEOPLE IN ISLAM. BismilLaah.  Tolerance (samah) is an important trait of a Muslim’s good character. We Muslims should be kind and gentle, patient with people, forgiving of bad character, and lenient whenever possible. The Prophet Mohammed Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam commanded us to avoid causing unnecessary difficulty and hardship in people’s lives and to inspire people with graceful speech. Make things easy and do not make things difficult. Give glad tidings and do not repel people. Cooperate with each other and do not become divided. Sahih Bukhari 2873, Grade: Muttafaqun Alayhi. This command is closely related to the need of a Muslim to control his or her anger. Unrestrained anger leads to numerous sins and bad deeds, so Muslims must temper their anger with patience, tolerance, and the ability to hold back harmful words. Teasing, mockery, insults to others et...

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawm Al-khamis, 30th day of Rajab 1446AH, Thursday. 30th Jan. 2025). MEANING OF ALLAH CREATING HUMANS IN HIS OWN IMAGE.  BismilLah. Unfortunately, other faiths have made a serious mistake in trying to compare The CREATOR, ALLAH Azzawajal with HIS Creation human beings in physical appearance, and that's blasphemy and serious error  Sheikh AbuAmina, in one of his articles, explained that, in Islam, we believe that all people have been created in the “image” of ALLAH Azzawajal. But what does this mean? ALLAH Azzawajal is the creator of everything, including all people. That people are in the “image of ALLAH Azzawajal” means they are in the form that HE, ALLAH Azzawajal has chosen and honored for them, not that they resemble ALLAH Azzawajal in physical appearance or share in the Divine Essence. Just as we say a righteous person is the “servant of ALLAH” and a mosque is the “house of ALLAH” as a way to honor them, likewise is it an added dignity for pe...

BismilLah.  Assalaamu Alaikum WarahmatulLah to you all. AlhamdulilLah for granting us the opportunity to be part of this blessed day. Today mark the day when ALLAH granted Musah alayhi salaam victory over Fir'awn.

We are all fasting on this blessed day seeking forgiveness from ALLAH for our sins from last year till date as the Prophet sallalLaahu Alaihi Wasallam recommended.  Those who are unable to fast can still do much to earn lots of rewards especially our sisters and daughters in their monthly cycle. You can recite lots of azkaar and give sadaqah with your intention to seek forgiveness from ALLAH. Please remember today is Friday lets strive to go to Masjid early and also remember to send salutations to our...
