The Awliyā’ of Allah in the Qur’an

The Awliyā’ of Allah in the Qur’an: Helpers, Near Ones, and the God-Conscious 🔹 Introduction: Nearness to Allah or Allah’s Nearness? Throughout the Qur’an, the word "walī" is typically used in the sense of Allah’s closeness, protection, and support for human beings. However, in Sūrah Yūnus (10:62) , with the phrase “Awliyā’ullāh” (Friends of Allah) , it is the servants’ closeness to Allah that comes into focus. This marks a rare but striking shift in perspective within the Qur’an. 🔹 Conceptual Framework: What Do Walī and Awliyā’ Mean? Walī (وَلِيّ) in Arabic means “one who is near, a supporter, protector.” Awliyā’ (أولياء) is the plural form, meaning “those who are near, helpers.” Thus, Awliyā’ullāh literally means “those near to Allah / Allah’s helpers.” It is not merely a mystical friendship but a relationship of responsibility and commitment, as revealed through Qur’anic usage. 🔹 Who Are the Awliyā’ of Allah According to the Qur’an? 🟩 Yūnus 10:6...

And they will burn in a blazing Fire.” (Qur’an 4:10) The orphan represents the vulnerable, unprotected, and economically weak member of society. Taking their property is not just a material offense— It is an attack on innocence . It is often state-sanctioned theft , as it is usually committed by a g...

✒️ THEFT: -1 CUT OFF HIS HAND! The Meaning of Theft and Its Punishment in the Qur’an The clearest reference to the crime of theft and its punishment in the Qur’an is found in Surah Al-Ma’idah, verse 38 . However, this verse should not be viewed merely as a call for physical punishment, but rather as conveying deeper moral and societal significance. 🔑 Key Verse: “As to the thief, male or female, cut off their hands as a punishment for what they have done—a deterrent from Allah. And Allah is Almighty, All-Wise.” (Qur’an, 5:38) 1. What does “cut off their hands” really mean? The Arabic phrase "faqṭaʿū aydiyahumā" has traditionally been understood as a physical command to amputate the hands.

THE GLORIFICATION BY CREATION

  THE GLORIFICATION BY CREATION Brief Meaning of Tasbih The word Tasbih (تسبيح) derives from the Arabic root sa-ba-ha (س-ب-ح), which means to swim , to move swiftly , or to distance oneself .
