[1] Reflection On Surah Al-Jumu’ah [One Reminder Every Yawmul Jumu’ah]


In The Name of Allaah, The Most Merciful, The Bestower of Mercy.

Allaah [The Most High] said: [يُسَبِّحُ لِلَّهِ مَا فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ وَمَا فِي الْأَرْضِ الْمَلِكِ الْقُدُّوسِ الْعَزِيزِ الْحَكِيمِ – Whatsoever is in the heavens and whatsoever is on the earth glorifies Allah, the King (of everything), the Holy, the All-Mighty, the All-Wise]. [Surah Al- Jumu’ah Ayah 1]

Imaam As-Sadi [may Allaah have mercy upon him] said: Everything in the heavens and the earth glorify Allaah and obey His commands, deify and worship Him, because indeed His dominion is perfect and He owns the world above and below – all are His slaves and under His (absolute) control. [الْقُدُّوسِ – The pure and perfect one- free from all defect and deficiency (or shortcoming)]; [الْعَزِيزِ -The All Mighty or Invincible] – the One (alone) Who has subjected all things (under His control)]; [الْحَكِيمِ – The All Wise in relation to what He has created and commanded (or decreed)]. These great Attributes urges (evokes the creation) to worship Allaah alone without associating a partner to Him. (1)

Imaam Ibnul Jawzi [may Allaah have mercy upon him] said: Allaah [The Most High] informed (us) that everything in the heavens and the earth glorifies Him- all the creation, including the inanimate objects, just as Allaah (The Most High) stated:

تُسَبِّحُ لَهُ السَّمَاوَاتُ السَّبْعُ وَالْأَرْضُ وَمَن فِيهِنَّ ۚ وَإِن مِّن شَيْءٍ إِلَّا يُسَبِّحُ بِحَمْدِهِ وَلَٰكِن لَّا تَفْقَهُونَ تَسْبِيحَهُمْ ۗ إِنَّهُ كَانَ حَلِيمًا غَفُورًا

The seven heavens and the earth and all that is therein, glorify Him and there is not a thing but glorifies His Praise. But you understand not their glorification. [Surah Al-Israa Ayah 44] (2)
