Episode Details

In this episode of the tafsir series, Shaykh Dr. Aḥsan Hanif explains verses from Surah Al-Isra (105–111). Allah ﷻ reminds us that His promises are always fulfilled—whether in victory, consequence, or mercy. The rise and fall of nations is tied to their actions: when people do good, it benefits them, and when they turn to evil, they only harm themselves.

These verses highlight how Allah ﷻ grants opportunities to return, yet warns that repeated disobedience leads to punishment. At the heart of it all is the Qur’an—guiding to what is most just and giving glad tidings of a great reward for the believers who act righteously.

At the same time, those who deny the Hereafter are warned of a painful end, and mankind is reminded of its own haste—often calling for harm without realising it.

A powerful reminder that true success lies in following divine guidance, turning back to Allah ﷻ, and trusting in His وعد (promise).
