heavenly system: it is a thing in outlawry, merely a self-willed rebellion,-"cast away on every side, repulsed under a
perpetual penalty" (verses 8-9). (37.7)
Sahih Al-Bukhari Hadith
Hadith 4.136
Aisha
Narrated by
The Prophet was vigilant one night and when he reached Medina, he said, "Would that a pious man from my companions
guard me tonight!" Suddenly we heard the clatter of arms. He said, "Who is that? " He (The new comer) replied, " I am Sad
bin Abi Waqqas and have come to guard you." So, the Prophet slept (that night).
GUARDIAN:
6:61 - He is the Irresistible (watching) from above over his worshippers and He sets guardians over
you. At length when death approaches one of you Our angels take his soul and they never fail
in their duty. 882883
882 Guarians: most commentators understand this to mean guardian angels. The idea of guardianship is expressed in a
general term. God watches over us and guards us, and provides all kinds of agencies, material, moral, and spiritual, to
help our growth and development, keep us from harm, and bring us nearer to our Destiny. (6.61)
883 Angel: the word used is rusul, the Sent Ones, -the same word as for human Apostles and
Messengers sent by God to teach mankind. The agents who come to take our souls at death are
accurate in the performance of their duty. They come neither before nor after their appointed time, nor do they do it in
any manner other than that fixed by the Command of God. (6.61)
4:1 - O mankind! reverence your Guardian-Lord Who created you from a single person
87:1 - Glorify the name of thy Guardian-Lord Most High 6080
6080 The word "Lord" by itself is an inadequate rendering here for Rabb. For it implies cherishing, guarding from harm,
sustaining, granting all the means and opportunities of development. See n. 20 to i. 2. For shortness, perhaps
"Guardian-Lord" will be sufficient in the Text. (87.1)
50:17 – Behold two (guardian angels) appointed to learn (his doings) learn (and note them) one
sitting on the right and one on the left. 4953
4953 Two angels are constantly by him to note his thoughts, words, and actions. One sits on the right side and notes his
good deeds and the other on the left, to note his bad deeds; corresponding to the Companions of the Right and the
Companions of the Left mentioned in lvi. 27 and 41. (50.17)
93:3 - The guardian-Lord Hath not forsaken thee Nor is He displeased. 61776178
6177 As usual, there is the particular assurance to the Holy Prophet, and the general asssurance to mankind: see the
Introduction to this Sura. The early years of the Prophet's ministry might well have seemed blank. After inspiration
there were days and periods of waiting. A sense of loneliness might well have weighed on his mind. His own tribe of
the Quraish jeered at him, taunted and threatened him, and slandered and persecuted him as well as those who
believe in him. But his faith was never shaken, not even to the extent of that cry of agony of Jesus: "My God! why hast
Thou forsaken me?": (Mark, xvi. 34). Muchless did it enter the Prophet's mind to think that Allah was angry with him,
as the taunts of his enemies suggested. (93.3)
6178 See last note. The more general meaning is similar. To the man who prepares for spiritual work and spiritual growth
the chief thing is typified by the growing hours of the morning. He should not be discouraged, nor overcome with a
sense of loneliness in his early struggles or difficulties. The end will crown his work. Allah's care is always around him.
If unsympathetic or hostile critics laugh at him or taunt him with being, "mad" or "old-fashioned" or "ploughing his
lonely furrow", his steady faith will uphold him. He will never believe that his earnest and sincere devotion to Allah,
whatever be its results in this world, can be anything but pleasing to Allah. (93.3)
93:5 - And soon will thy Guardian-Lord give thee (that wherewith) thou shalt be well-pleased. 6180
6180 Allah's good pleasure is sure when we serve Him. But we are assured that even our feelings of doubt and suffering
will vanish, and we shall have a sense of complete satisfaction, contentment, and active pleasure when our will is
identified with the Will of Allah. (93.5)
6:1 - Praise be to Allah Who created the heavens and the earth and made the darkness and the
light. Yet those who reject Faith hold (others) as equal with their Guardian-Lord. 834
834 Adala has various meanings: (1) to hold something as equal to something else, as here; to balance nicely; (2) to deal
justly, as between one party and another, xiii.15; (3) to give compensation or reparation, or something as equivalent to
something else, vi. 70; (4) to turn the balance the right way, to give a right disposition, to give a just bias or proportion,
lxxxii. 7; (5) to turn the balance the wrong way, to swerve, to show bias. iv 135. (6.1)
