Sunan of Abu-Dawood<br />

Hadith 778 Narrated by<br />

Samurah ibn Jundub; Ubayy ibn Ka'b<br />

Samurah ibn Jundub and Imran ibn Husayn had a discussion (about the periods of silence in prayer). Samurah then said<br />

that he remembered two periods of silence from the Apostle of Allah (peace be upon him); one when he uttered the takbir<br />

and the other when he finished reciting: "Not of those with whom Thou art angry, nor of those who go astray" (i.7). Samurah<br />

remembered that, but Imran ibn Husayn rejected it. Then they wrote about it to Ubayy ibn Ka'b. He wrote a letter to them and<br />

gave a reply to them that Samurah remembered correctly.<br />

PERISH:<br />

14:13 - And the Unbelievers said to their apostles: "Be sure we shall drive you out of our land or ye<br />

shall return to our religion." But their Lord inspired (this Message) to them: "Verily We shall<br />

cause the wrongdoers to perish! 1887<br />

1887 The arguments in a circle were explained in the last note. But Infidelity looks upon argument merely as an<br />

amusement. Its chief weapon is physical force. As its only belief is in material<strong>ism</strong>, it thinks that threats of force will put<br />

down the righteous. It offers the choice between exile and violence against conformity to its own standards of evil,<br />

which it thinks to be good. But Faith is not to be cowed down by Force. Its source of strength is Allah, and it receives<br />

the assurance that violence will perish ultimately by violence, and that Faith and Good must stand and be established.<br />

In fact the good must inherit the earth and the evil ones be blotted out. (14.13)<br />

17:81 - And say: "Truth has (now) arrived and Falsehood perished: for Falsehood is (by its nature)<br />

bound to perish." 2281<br />

2281 From its nature falsehood must perish, for it is the opposite of Truth, and Truth must ever prevail. (17.81)<br />

18:35 - He went into his garden in a state (of mind) unjust to his soul: He said "I deem not that this<br />

will ever perish. 2377<br />

2377 It was not wealth that ruined him, but the attitude of his mind. He was unjust, not so much to his neighbour, as to his<br />

own soul. In his love of the material, he forgot or openly defied the spiritual. As verse 37 shows, he took his<br />

companion with him, to impress him with his own importance, but the companion was unmoved. (18.35)<br />

29:52 - Say: "Enough is Allah for a Witness between me and you: He knows what is in the heavens<br />

and on earth. And it is those who believe in vanities and reject Allah that will perish (in the<br />

end)." 34833484<br />

3483 The test of a Revelation is whether it comes from Allah or not. This is made clear by the life and teachings of the<br />

Messenger who brings it. No fraud or falsehood can for a moment stand before Allah. All the most hidden things in<br />

heaven and earth are open before Him. (29.52)<br />

3484 If Truth is rejected, Truth does not suffer. It is the rejecters who suffer and perish in the end. (29.52)<br />

42:34 - Or He can cause them to perish because of the (evil) which (the men) have earned: but<br />

much doth He forgive.<br />

45:27 - To Allah belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth and the Day that the Hour of<br />

Judgment is established that Day will the dealers in Falsehood perish! 4765<br />

4765 These vain wranglers about the future life and deniers of the Truth may have a run in this fleeting world; but the<br />

moment the world of Reality is established, they will see what they now deny. The facts will destroy their fancies, and<br />

they themselves will find themselves humiliated and lost, for having deliberately ignored Allah's Signs and acted on<br />

opposition to His holy Will. (45.27)<br />

55:26 - All that is on earth will perish;<br />

55:27 - But will abide (forever) the Face of thy Lord full of Majesty Bounty and Honor. 51895190<br />

5189 The most magnificent works of man-such as they are-are but fleeting. Ships, Empires, the Wonders of Science and<br />

Art, the splendours of human glory or intellect, will all pass away. The most magnificent objects in outer Nature-the<br />

mountains and valleys, the sun and moon, the Constellation Orion and the star Sirius-will also pass away in their<br />

appointed time. But the only One that will endure for ever is the "Face" of Allah. (55.27)<br />

111: 1- Perish the hands of the Father of Flame! Perish he! 6294<br />

6294 Abu Lahab, "Father of Flame", was the nick-name of an uncle of the holy Prophet, from his fiery hot temper and his<br />

ruddy complexion. He was one of the most inveterate enemies of early Islam. When the holy Prophet called together<br />
