Question 1(easy question) :good: :
(a). briefly describe the main theme(s) in each passage.
(b) Briefly explain how each passage presents its theme(s) in a distinctive way.These are the main points that have to be mentioned and explained while answering any of the questions on one of the surahs.
1.Surah Baqrah (2:21-22)
a) This passage talks about tawhid (oneness) and emphasises that God is the Creator of
Everything. Allah has created for the benefit of mankind guidance (Through His revealed Books and Prophets), fertile earth, shade and water from sky. It also suggests that
Mankind should not commit the greatest sin of associating partners/rivals with God, for
He is the only Creator and Sustainer. According to Quran, ‘To Him belongs everything in the heavens and everything on earth. Absolutely, GOD is the Most Rich, Most Praiseworthy”. 22:64.
b) This Surah shows the relationship between God and His creation. The whole mankind, heaven and the earth are sight of Allah and they are serving the humanity. Now, it is the duty of man to worship Him and praise Him. They can also see this from the guidance that came before them from prophets. Therefore, humans should acknowledge who their sustenance has come from as He is the only creator of everything. We should acknowledge the countless bounties of Allah and praise Him as Quran says “Praise be to GOD, Lord of the universe.’ 1 : 2.
2. Surah Zilzal (99: 1-8)
a) In the verses of Surah Zilzal cited above, the earth has been personified. This personification of the earth is sustained throughout this short surah. The earth is “shaken” and “throws up its burdens”, it will “declare its tidings: For that thy Lord will have given it inspiration”. The word أَوْحَى used with reference to the earth here in (99:5) “ordinarily means inspiration, the message put into the mind or heart by Allah.” (‘Ali, 654). Thus the earth is presented as a living creature and the message is put into its “mind or heart by Allah”. In this Surah Allah say, O mankind! Have Taqwa (fear) of your Lord. This surah narrates the sign and events of the Day of Judgment. The whole earth will experience all manner of internal as well as external commotions and upheavals. The earth will throw out its treasures because God had commanded her to do so, the word Auha meaning; he commanded (Aqrab). Every action done in secret by men will come to light whether it is good or bad and they will be judge according to their actions and deeds in worldly life.
b) This surah refers to the Day of Judgment which one of the fundamental belief of Muslims. Allah is the creator of this universe and it is created with His will and it will end with Will. That Day will start with the blow of Trumpet by angel Israfil and will cause great shaking of earth. .This surah deals with many subjects belonging to the supersensory realm such as faith in one God, the angels, doomsday and resurrection, heaven and hell. Every human will get reward and punishment according to his action. as it is mention in Holy Quran “They are dead, not alive, and they have no idea how or when they will be resurrected.” 16:21.
3.Surah Nas (114:1-6)
a) Allah provides Refuge from the wickedness of those who tempt others. In this surah,, refuge is sought with Allah through His attributes which are directly related to man. As a result, the appeal of the surah is more effective. Which invoke Allah’s mercy. These are three attributes from the attributes of the Lord, the Mighty and Majestic. They are Lordship, Sovereignty and Divinity. Thus, He is the Lord of everything, the King of everything and the God of everything. This (the whisperer) is the devil that is assigned to man. This devil will go to any lengths to confuse and confound man. The only person who is safe is He Whom Allah protects.
b) This surah refers to the power of God. This surah addresses to the Prophet (s) to seek Allah’s protection against the evil effect of magic spell cast on him by his enemies. Allah has the power to undo all evil forces created by Satan. According to Quran “When the devil whispers to you any whisper, seek refuge in GOD; He is Hearer, Omniscient.” 7:200. it is also mention in Quran “Say, "No one can protect me from GOD, nor can I find any other refuge beside Him.” 72:22.This surah is the dual of Surah Falaq, there is no essential difference between the central themes of the two.
