the last 10 verses of Surah Al-e-Imran...

[abdul muntaqim]

Bismillah.

One of the most beautiful set of verses in the Qur’an are the last 10 verses of Surah Al-e-Imran (surah no. 3). In these verses, Allah ta’ala discusses the qualities of Ulul Albaab, the people who possess understanding. It is also a sunnah of the Prophet [SAWS] to recite these verses when he would wake up from his sleep.


Ibn Abbas radi Allahu anhu narrates:
One night I stayed overnight in the house of my aunt Maymoonah, and said to myself, “I will watch the prayer of Allah’s Apostle.” My aunt placed a cushion for Allah’s Apostle and he slept on it in its length-wise direction and woke-up rubbing the traces of sleep off his face and then he recited the last ten verses of Surah Al-e-Imran till he finished it. Then he went to a hanging water skin and took it, performed the ablution and then stood up to offer the prayer.

[Full hadith found in saheeh Al-Bukhari and Muslim]


Who are Ulul Albaab?

Albaab is from the root lubb or laam-ba-ba (لبب). Lubb literally means the core or heart of something. So, Ulul Albaab are those who understand the crux and core of the matter. It can also mean intellect, so these people use their intellect to understand, so they get to the crux of a matter.

So, these people are the only ones who understand the ayaat of Allah. They understand the nature of this dunya, and the status of the aakhirah. These verses seem like a conversation between Ulul Albaab and Allah azza wa jal, and in these 10 short verses, Allah ta’ala shows us the qualities of those who are truly successful. It is no surprise then that these verses have a special place in the Sunnah of the Prophet sal Allahu alayhi wa sallam.

So, InshaAllah let’s revive this Sunnah and start our days with the recitation of these beautiful verses, and implement them into our lives. We should also read and learn the tafseer of these verses, as the one who doesn’t read tafseer is like the one who receives a letter from the King without a candle to read it.
And Allah ta’ala knows best.

Ma'sha'allah. Beautiful. And Muhammad SAWS was heard reciting it upon waking.

JazakAllaahu Khair for this.

Verily! In the creation of the heavens and the earth, and in the alternation of night and day, there are indeed signs for men of understanding. (Aali Imran 3:190)

Those who remember Allâh (always, and in prayers) standing, sitting, and lying down on their sides, and think deeply about the creation of the heavens and the earth, (saying): "Our Lord! You have not created (all) this without purpose, glory to You! (Exalted be You above all that they associate with You as partners). Give us salvation from the torment of the Fire. (Aali Imran 3:191)

"Our Lord! Verily, whom You admit to the Fire, indeed, You have disgraced him, and never will the Zâlimûn (polytheists and wrong-doers) find any helpers. (Aali Imran 3:192)

"Our Lord! Verily, we have heard the call of one (Muhammad SAW) calling to Faith: 'Believe in your Lord,' and we have believed. Our Lord! Forgive us our sins and remit from us our evil deeds, and make us die in the state of righteousness along with Al-Abrâr (those who are obedient to Allâh and follow strictly His Orders). (Aali Imran 3:193)

"Our Lord! Grant us what You promised unto us through Your Messengers and disgrace us not on the Day of Resurrection, for You never break (Your) Promise." (Aali Imran 3:194)

So their Lord accepted of them (their supplication and answered them), "Never will I allow to be lost the work of any of you, be he male or female. You are (members) one of another, so those who emigrated and were driven out from their homes, and suffered harm in My Cause, and who fought, and were killed (in My Cause), verily, I will remit from them their evil deeds and admit them into Gardens under which rivers flow (in Paradise); a reward from Allâh, and with Allâh is the best of rewards." (Aali Imran 3:195)

A brief enjoyment; then, their ultimate abode is Hell; and worst indeed is that place for rest. (Aali Imran 3:197)

But, for those who fear their Lord, are Gardens under which rivers flow (in Paradise); therein are they to dwell (for ever), an entertainment from Allâh; and that which is with Allâh is the Best for Al*******Abrâr (those who are obedient to Allâh and follow strictly His Orders). (Aali Imran 3:198)

And there are, certainly, among the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians), those who believe in Allâh and in that which has been revealed to you, and in that which has been revealed to them, humbling themselves before Allâh. They do not sell the Verses of Allâh for a little price, for them is a reward with their Lord. Surely, Allâh is Swift in account. (Aali Imran 3:199)


O you who believe! Endure and be more patient (than your enemy), and guard your territory by stationing army units permanently at the places from where the enemy can attack you, and fear Allâh, so that you may be successful. (Aali Imran 3:200)
