in darkness; then came the fight again, in the fuller light of Islam. And they are asked to believe in the light, and to
walk in it. Cf. also lvii. 12. and n. 5288 above. (57.28)
5328 Any wrong they may have committed through ignorance or misconceptions in their previous religion will be forgiven
them, as they have seen the new light and walk by it. (57.28)
66:8 - Their Light will run forward before them and by their right hands while they say "Our Lord!
perfect our Light for us and grant us Forgiveness; for Thou has power over all things."

5542 The opposition of sex against sex, individual or concerted, having been condemned , we are now exhorted to turn to
the Light, and to realise that the good and righteous can retain their integrity even though their mates, in spite of all
their example and precept, remain in evil and sin. (66.8)
5543 Whatever may have been the faults of the past, unite in good deeds, and abandon petty sectional jealousies, and
Allah will remove your difficulties and distresses, and all the evils from which you suffer. Indeed He will grant you the
Bliss of Heaven and save you from any humiliation which you may have brought on yourselves by your conduct and
on the revered Prophet and Teacher whose name you professed to take. (66.8)
5544 See lvii. 12, and n. 5288. The darkness of evil will be dispelled, and the Light of Allah will be realised by them more
and more. But even so they will not be content: for they will pray for the least taint of evil to be removed from them,
and perfection to be granted to them. In that exalted state they will be within reach of perfection,-not by their own
merits, but by the infinite Mercy and Power of Allah. (66.8)
76:11 - But Allah will deliver them from the evil of that Day and will shed over them a light of Beauty
and a (blissful) Joy. 5842
83:15 - Verily from (the Light of) their Lord that Day will they be veiled.

6018 The stain of evil deeds on their hearts sullies the mirror of their hearts, so that it does not receive the light. At
Judgment the true Light, the Glory of the Lord, the joy of the Righteous, will be hidden by veils from the eyes of the
Sinful. Instead; the Fire of Punishment will be to them the only reality which they will perceive. (83.15)
92:1 - By the Night as it conceals (the light); 6159
6159 The evidence of three things is invoked, viz., Night, Day, and Sex, and the conclusion is stated in verse 4, that men's
aims are diverse. But similarly there are contrasts in nature. What contrast can be greater than between Night and
Day? When the Night spreads her veil, the sun's light is hidden, but not lost. The sun is in his place all the time, and
will come forth in all his glory again in his own good time. Cf. xci. 3, 4, and n. 6149. Man pursuing diverse aims may
find, owing to his own position, Allah's light obscured from him for a time, but he must strive hard to put himself in a
position to reach it in all its glory. (92.1)
113:1 - Say: I seek refuge with the Lord of the Dawn 63016302
6301 In Allah's created world, there are all kinds of forces and counter-forces, especially those put in motion by beings who
have been endowed with some sort of will. The forces of good may be compared to light, and those of evil to
darkness. Allah can cleave the depths of darkness and produce light (vi. 96), and therefore we should cast off fear
and take refuge in divine guidance and goodness. (113.1)
6302 Falaq is the Dawn or Daybreak, the cleaving of darkness and the manifestation of light. This may be understood in
various senses: (1) literally, when the darkness of the night is at its worst, rays of light pierce through and produce the
dawn; (2) when the darkness of ignorance is at its worst, the light of Allah pierces through the soul and gives it
enlightenment: xxiv. 35; (3) non-existence is darkness, and life and activity may be typified by light. The author and
source of all true light is Allah, and if we seek Him, we are free from ignorance, superstition, fear, and every kind of
evil. (113.1)
Sahih Muslim Hadith
Hadith 1671
Abdullah ibn
Narrated by
…Then Bilal came and he informed him about the prayer. He (the Holy Prophet) then stood up for
prayer but did not perform ablution. His supplication included these words: "O Allah, place light in
my heart, light in my sight, light in my hearing, light on my right hand, light on my left hand, light
above me, light below me, light in front of me, light behind me, and enhance light for me." Kurayb
(the narrator) said: There are seven (words more) which are in my heart (but I cannot recall them)
and I met some of the descendants of Abbas, who narrated these words to me and mentioned in
them: (Light) in my sinew, in my flesh, in my blood, in my hair, in my skin, and mentioned two more
things.
