The Holy Qur’an
1. In the name of Allah, the Gracious, the
Merciful.
2. Whatever is in the heavens and whatever is
in the earth glorifies Allah, the Sovereign, the
Holy, the Mighty, the Wise.
3. He it is Who has raised among the Unlettered
people a Messenger from among themselves who
recites unto them His Signs, and purifies them,
and teaches them the Book and wisdom, although
they had been, before, in manifest misguidance;
4. And among others from among them who
have not yet joined them. He is the Mighty, the
Wise.
(Al-Jumu’ah 62:1-4)
Sayings of the Holy Prophet Muhammad sa
Hadhrat Abu Huraira (ra) narrates:
While we were sitting with the Prophet(sa) Surah
Al-Jumu’ah was revealed to him, and when the Verse,
“And He (Allah) has sent him (Muhammad) also to
other (Muslims).....’ (62:4) was recited by the Prophet,
I said, “Who are they, O Allah’s Apostle?” The
Prophet(sa) did not reply till I repeated my question
thrice. At that time, Salman Al-Farsi was with us.
Allah’s Apostle(sa) put his hand on Salman, saying,
“If Faith were at (the place of) Ath-Thuraiya (pleiades,
the highest star), even then (some men or man from
these people (i.e. Salman’s folk) would attain it.”
(Sahih Bukhari: Commentary on the Qur’an
Volume 6, Book 60, #420)
