MUKADIMAH

IN THE NAME OF ALLAH, THE MOST GRACIOUS AND THE MOST MERCIFUL.

Praise be to Allah, the One with whom there is no equal, who has neither servants nor friends, who has no wife nor children, who created the seven heavens and the seven earths. Who created man from the ground, then continued his creation from the lowly water. Such is the Power of the Lord of the Worlds. Glory be to Allah, the best of creators.

I bear witness that there is no God but Allah, the One, with whom there is no partner. And I bear witness that Muhammad is His servant and messenger. May peace and blessings be upon him throughout the days and years. And I seek forgiveness from Allah, the Lord of the Worlds.

(Said) Ash-Shaykh Al Imamul ajallu Abu Nasr Muhammad ibn Abdurrohman alhamdaani, May Allah’s Mercy be upon him (know) That the Creator Who is very great in His power and very high in His sentence and sustainable in His wisdom has adorned seven things with seven things , and adorned each of them with seven other things, to inform the knowledgeable people that the number seven has a great secret and an exalted position in the sight of Allah, the Lord of harm and benefit.

First, Allah adorned the air with seven layers of sky.

His words:

Meaning: “And we built over you seven firm heavens” (Annabaa’:12).

Then Allah adorned it with seven stars, His words:

Meaning: “And indeed we have created the stars of the heavens, and we have adorned them for those who look at them. (QS. Al Hijr: 16)

Secondly, Allah has decorated the spacious field with seven layers of earth. Allah’s Word:

Meaning: It is Allah who has created the seven heavens and like them the earth…”. (QS Ath thalaaq: 12)

Then Allah adorned the earth with seven seas, as He says:

Meaning: “…. And the sea, and thereafter seven seas were added to it.” (QS. Luqman: 27)

Third, Allah has adorned hell with seven levels, namely: Jahannam, Sa’iir, Saqor, Jahiim, Huthomah, Ladhoo, and Hawiyah. Then Allah also decorated it with seven doors, as He said:

Meaning: “It has seven gates, each of which has been assigned to a certain group of them”. (QS Al-Hijr: 44)

Fourth, Allah decorated the Qur’an with seven long chapters, then decorated it with seven opening verses of the book (fatihatul kitaab). As He said:

Meaning: “And indeed We have given You seven verses that are recited repeatedly and the great Qur’an: (QS. Al Hijr: 87)

Fifth, Allah adorned man with seven limbs, namely: Two hands, two feet, two knees, and one face. Then adorn him with seven acts of worship, namely: the two hands with prayer, the two feet with service, the two knees with powder, and the face with prostration. His words:

Meaning: … And prostrate yourself and draw near (to God)”. (QS. Al Alaq: 19)

Sixth, Allah decorates the human life with seven stages. The newborn period is called ‘Rodli’, then ‘fathim’, then ‘shobi’, then ‘ghulam’, then ‘shaba’, then ‘kuhul’, then ‘shaykh’. And decorate the seven stages of this age with seven sentences, namely: saying Laa ilaaha illallaah Muhammad Rasulullah. Allah’s Word:

Meaning: “… and Allah made obligatory upon them the word of piety (Laailaaha illallaah) and it is their right to have the word of piety”. (QS. Al Fath: 26)

Seventh, Allah adorned the world with seven great countries, namely first : Hindustan; second: Hijaz; third: Basrah, Badiyah, Kufa; fourth: Iraq, Sham, Khurasan to Balakh; fifth: Rome and Armenia; sixth: the land of Ya’juj and Ma’juj; seventh: China and Turkestan. Then Allah decorated the seven great countries with seven days, namely : Saturday, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday. And Allhah honored with these seven days, seven of the nagi, namely : Allah glorified Prophet Moses (peace be upon him) on Saturday, Jesus (peace be upon him) on Sunday, David (peace be upon him) on Monday, Solomon (peace be upon him) on Tuesday, Yaqub (peace be upon him) on Tuesday. With Tuesday, Prophet Yaqub as with Wednesday, Prophet Adam as. With Thursday, and Prophet Muhammad PBUH. And his people with Friday.

So when I pondered about these uniquenesses, I felt the desire to compile a book that contains knowledge about the meaning of these days, so that it can be a guide and a warning for those who read it.

I have named this book: As sab’iyyatul fii mawaa’idhil bariyyaat.

I ask Allah to help me to complete this book, and to guide me in its completion. For He is the best of places to ask, and for Him is the effort and strength.

Amen.

CHAPTER 1: SATURDAY

Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta’ala says:

Meaning: “And ask the Children of Israel about the land by the sea, when they transgressed on Saturday…” (QS. Al A’roof: 163)

Muslim ibn Abdullah reported Sa’id ibn Jubayr from Anas ibn Malik r.a., who said: The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) was asked about the seventh day. The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) replied: Because the Quraysh had committed treason in Darunnadwah, the Word of Allah:

Meaning: And (remember), when the disbelievers (Quraysh) thought of an attempt against you to capture and imprison you or kill you or expel you. They thought of a trick and Allah foiled that trick. And Allah is the best avenger of deceit”. (QS. Al Anfaal: 30)

It should be noted that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) did not call Saturday the day of treason and deceit, but on that day seven incidents of treason and deceit were committed against seven people by seven groups. First, the people of Noah committed treason and deceit against the Prophet Noah (peace be upon him).

As Allah said that ma’nanya: And they (the people of Noah) committed a very great deceit. Therefore they deserved the punishment of typhoons and calamities.

The Word of Allah the Almighty: And we opened the gates of the heavens with water pouring down.

Second: The people of Sholeh committed treason and deceit against the Prophet Sholeh (peace be upon him). As Allah says, ma’nanya : And they plotted treachery in earnest and We plotted treachery (also) while they were unaware. Therefore, they deserve destruction and ruin. The word of Allah, ma’nanya: So We destroyed them and all their people.

Third: Joseph’s brothers committed treason and deceit against the Prophet Joseph (peace be upon him). As Allah, the Almighty, says: So they plotted (to destroy) you. This is because they felt jealous of Joseph, after they understood and understood the ta’wil of Joseph’s dream, in which in the dream they were likened to stars that all bowed to Yusuf alaihissalaam. For their treason, Allah reproached them with His word, which ma’nanya : Do you know (the evil) of what you have done to Yusuf.

Fourth: The people of Moses committed treason and deceit against Prophet Moses (peace be upon him). As Allah says, ma’nanya : So gather all your power (magic), then come in rows. therefore they deserve humiliation. The word of Allah, ma’nanya : And so they became a despised people.

Fifth: The people of ‘Isa committed treason against the Prophet ‘Isa (peace be upon him).

As Allah says, ma’nanya : The disbelievers are deceitful, they are, and Allah is the best avenger of deceit. Therefore they deserve expulsion and humiliation. Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, says (interpretation of the meaning): The disbelievers of the Children of Israel have been cursed with the tongues of David and Jesus the son of Mary.

Sixth: The Quraysh gang committed treason and deceit against the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). As Allah says, Ma’nanya : And (remember), when the disbelievers (Quraysh) thought of striving against you to capture and imprison you or kill you or expel you. They thought of a trick and Allah foiled the trick. And Allah is the best avenger of deceit. Therefore they deserve punishment and punishment. Allah’s words, ma’nanya : And indeed, we felt upon them some of the near punishment (in this world) before the greater punishment (in the Hereafter).

Seventh: The Children of Israel committed treason and deceit against the prohibition of Allah. As Allah said, ma’nanya : And ask the Children of Israel about the land that lies near the sea when they transgressed the rules on Saturday. Therefore they deserve a curse. The word of Allah, ma’nanya : Or We will curse them as We cursed those who transgressed on Saturday.

CHAPTER ONE

THE PLOTS OF THE PEOPLE OF NOAH AGAINST THE PROPHET NOAH (PEACE BE UPON HIM)

When the people of Noah plotted to destroy Prophet Noah (peace be upon him), Allah destroyed them all. That is by issuing from the earth very hot water, and pouring out from the sky very cold water, and causing a very powerful hurricane raging around them. So the enemies of the Prophet Noah were destroyed, and he and his faithful followers were saved.

Allah says:

Meaning: “So We saved Noah and those who were with him in a loaded ship”. (QS. Ash-Shu’aroo :119)

(A warning)

It is as if Allah Ta’ala is saying: “O my servant, if you want Me to release you from the clutches of the devil, and I save you from drowning in the Ocean of disobedience, then use your eyes to take i’tibar, your ears to listen to knowledge and wisdom, your tongue to say the words of tawhid and shahada, and your feet to walk to prayer in congregation, and all your limbs to do all acts of obedience and worship, and instill in your heart a sense of repentance and regret. Then one day I will save you from the prison of loss and regret, and I will honor you in the place of glory and salvation”.

Allah says: “And they have committed a very great deceit”.

The people of Noah wanted to expel Noah (peace be upon him) from their midst. Then Allah also committed treason against them, and He removed them from the face of the earth, by pouring out very cold water from the sky and removing from the earth very hot water, His Word:

Meaning: “So We opened the doors of the heavens with (lowering) water poured down and We made the earth emit springs of water, so the waters met for a predetermined affair”. (QS. Al Qomar: 11-12)

(Storyline)

When the appointed time of punishment approached, Allah sent the angel Gabriel (peace be upon him) to the Prophet Noah (peace be upon him), to teach him the ways of carpentry, and Gabriel said that Allah told him to build a ship. Allah’s Word:

Meaning: “And make the ark with the supervision and guidance of Our revelation…”. (QS. Hud: 37)

Noah asked: “How do I make the ship?”

Answer: “Cut one hundred twenty-four thousand keeping boards, and on each piece of board is the name of the Prophet”.

Noah asked: “I do not know all the names of the Prophets”.

So Allah revealed: “O Noah, the task of cutting the board is yours, while revealing the names of the Prophets, I will do it”.

Then Noah cut the first piece of board, then appeared the name of Adam alaihissalaam, on the second piece appeared the name of Shith alaihissalaam, on the third piece of board appeared the name of Idris alaihissalaam, on the fourth piece of board appeared the name of Noah alaihissalaam,. And so on, every time Noah finished cutting the board, the name of one of the Prophets appeared written on the board. And the last was the name of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), as the Seal of the Prophets, the adorner of the saints, and the instructor of the saints.

Then Allah commanded Noah (peace be upon him) to prepare nails. On each nail was the name of one of the Prophets. After Noah prepared the nails, he began to put the pieces of the board together and nailed them. The disbelievers who saw Noah’s work mocked and insulted and laughed at him, as Allah reported in the Qur’an:

Meaning: “And Noah began to make the ark, and whenever the leaders of his people walked past Noah, they mocked him. Noah said: “If you mock us, then indeed we mock you as you mock us.” (Huud:38)

(In the khabar it is mentioned): After Noah (peace be upon him) had put the planks together, he lacked four planks to complete the ship. So the Angel Gabriel (peace be upon him) descended and said: O Noah, Allah commands you to cut four more pieces of plank, and to put on each piece of plank the name of the companion of My beloved Muhammad Sollallaahu allaihi wa salam, for the position of the companions in My sight is like that of the Prophets.

(a warning): Here, Allah seems to be saying: When I showed the name of My beloved and his companions on that piece of board, I saved the ship and its passengers from the fury of a typhoon and drowning. And when Allah reveals to the hearts of the believers the love of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) and his companions, then He saves them from the punishment of Hellfire.

(In the khabar it is mentioned): It was said to ‘Abdullah ibn ‘Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him): Teach us the knowledge that will save us from the fire of hell and enter us into heaven.

Ibn Abbas replied: You should do fifteen things, five with your tongue, five with your limbs, and five with your heart. The five with the tongue are the words: Subhanallah wal hamdulillaah wa laa ilaaha illallaah wallaahu akbar wa laa hawla walaa quwwata illa billaahil ‘aliyyil ‘adhiim, and five with the limbs are : Praying the five daily prayers, while the other five with the heart are: Loving five people, namely the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), Abubakar, Umar, Usman, and Ali, may Allaah be pleased with them.

SECOND CHAPTER

THE TREACHERY OF THE RIGHTEOUS AGAINST THE CAMEL OF THE PROPHET PEACE BE UPON HIM

The righteous have committed an act of treason by killing the camel which was a sign of the miracle of Prophet Saleh (peace be upon him).

Allah’s Word:

Meaning: “And they also plotted treachery in earnest and We plotted treachery (also), while they did not realize”. (QS. AN Naml: 50)

In retaliation for their plot, Allah changed the color of their appearance, on the first day red, on the second day yellow, and on the third day black, then on the fourth, which is at Asr prayer on Saturday, they were destroyed by Allah with one screech of the angel Gabriel alaihissalaam. The story of their destruction can be read more clearly in the chapter on Wednesday.

When they had slaughtered the mother camel, her children went to the mountain from which the mother had come out, and she screamed three times, and the mountain split open and the camel children entered it. Since then, no one has seen it.

(Reflection): With this event it is as if Allah Ta’ala is saying: I take one out of the rock, and I put one into the rock, and I destroy one with a rock, and what Allah took out of the rock was the camel of Prophet Saleh, and what Allah put into the rock was the son of the camel of Prophet Saleh, and what Allah destroyed with a rock was the kaun of Prophet Lot.

(Similarly), Iblis was created from fire, Prophet Ibrahim was preserved from the flames, and the disbelievers were tormented with fire.

(The equation), Adam was created from the earth, Ashabul Kahf was preserved in the earth, and the people of ‘Add were tortured with the earth.

(The equation), Horses were created from the wind, the people of Hud were tortured with the wind, and Prophet Ya’qub was given good news through the wind.

(Man was created from water, Moses and his people were kept in water, and fish and sea animals were given risky in water.

These events that originate from one thing but produce different things, show that the creator is the Absolute Powerful One.

THIRD CHAPTER

THE TREASON OF YUSUF’S BROTHERS AGAINST PROPHET YUSUF ALAIHISSALAAM

Allah’s Word:

Meaning: “So they made a plot (to destroy) you”. (QS. Yusuf: 5)

Joseph’s brothers planned a trick to separate Joseph from his father, Prophet Ya’qub (peace be upon him), with the aim that Prophet Ya’qub could no longer look at Joseph’s face, so that he would eventually forget him and love them alone. As Allah tells in the Qur’an:

Meaning: (That is) when they said: “Surely Joseph and his brothers (Bunyamin) are more beloved by our father than we ourselves, even though we are a strong group, surely our father is in clear error, kill Joseph or banish him to an area (unknown) so that your father’s attention is devoted to you alone …”. (QS. Yusuf: 8-9)

Said Azza wa Jalla: O brothers of Yusuf, I will obscure your father’s sight so that he cannot see your faces, then I will reveal the love and longing in his heart for Yusuf, so that all day long he will only remember Yusuf, he looks at Yusuf with his heart and cannot forget him, while towards you he will not pay attention at all.

(Which is similar to the above incident): When Iblis tricked Adam, so that Allah expelled Adam from Paradise, Iblis said la’natullah alaihi : I took Adam out of Paradise, the place of qorobah and next to his Lord. Then I placed him beside me, so that he and his children and grandchildren could look at me and obey me, and oppose their Lord. So Allah Ta’alla said: O Iblis, you say that people look at you in this world and do not look at their Lord. For the sake of My glory and majesty, I will cover their eyes from looking at you and I will instill in their hearts a sense of love and longing for Me, so that they are occupied by the remembrance of Me throughout their lives, I will lift the veil from their hearts, and I will look at them every day with three hundred glances so that they can look at Me with their hearts, and they will not care about you, rather they will curse you.

FOURTH CHAPTER

PHARAOH’S PLOT AGAINST PROPHET MUAA (PEACE BE UPON HIM)

The words of Allah Subhanahu wa Ta’alla:

Meaning: “So gather all your power (magic) then come in line”. (QS.Thoha: 64)

Fir’aun and haamaan said to Prophet Musa (peace be upon him) You have left us to learn magic, and now you are returning to us, so we will gather magicians to match you.

Then they gathered the magicians with their magic tools which amounted to seventy thousand kinds of objects, in the form of sticks and mines. Then they threw them with their magic power, and all of them turned into various kinds of terrifying snakes, so that Moses was afraid. Then Allah revealed to him: “Do not be afraid, verily you are the most superior (victorious).

Similarly, a believer who is facing his death, he sees the angel of death who will take his life, by kicking Iblis who wants to erase his faith, so he is afraid. Then an angel descends to reassure him: “Do not be afraid and do not be sad, and be happy with the paradise that has been promised to you.

After the sorcerers threw their magic tools so that they turned into frightening snakes, then Allah ordered the Prophet Moses to throw the stick that was in his hand; His Word:

Meaning: “And throw what is in your right hand, surely it will swallow what they do …”. (QS. Tohaa: 69)

As if Allah wanted to say: O Moses, the sorcerers have cast their staffs and mines so that you may see their great magic. So now throw down your staff, so that you may see the power of your Lord, the Qodiim.

So Moses threw down his staff, and immediately it was transformed into a great serpent, which immediately swallowed the work of the sorcerers. Then the snake opened its mouth and walked towards the place of the sorcerers. So the disbelievers ran over each other, so that many of them died.

Then the snake went to Pharaoh’s throne. When he was near, Pharaoh cried out: O musa, help me!.

So musa took the snake, after it was in musa’s hand, it immediately turned back into a stick.

When the magicians saw this, they immediately bowed down and said: We believe in the Lord of the worlds, the Lord of Moses and Aaron.

When they bowed down, Allah revealed to them all the earth, and when they raised their heads to the sky, Allah revealed to them all the heavens up to the Throne, so that they felt longing for Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta’ala.

Then Pharaoh said to them: Did you believe in him (Moses) before I gave you permission?

Indeed he is your leader who teaches you magic. Then indeed I will cut off the hands and feet of you all crosswise, and indeed I will crucify you all at the base of a date palm tree, and indeed you will know which of us is more painful and more lasting in punishment.

The sorcerers replied: We will not prefer you to the evidences (Miracles) that have come to us from the Lord who created us, so decide what you wish to decide. Indeed, you can only decide in the life of this world. O Fir’aun, you can only cut off our hands and feet, but you cannot cut off ma’rifah from our hearts.

(Reflection): The sorcerers were once disbelievers and traitors, they conspired with Pharaoh to oppose the Mu’jizat of Prophet Moses (peace be upon him), but when they prostrated themselves with these great sins, Allah lifted the veil of heaven and earth, and honored them with faith, and made them His Aulia. So how about the Ummah of Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), if they go to the House of Allah Al Haram, with repentance and remorse, clean from minor and major impurity, then enter the Masjid al Haram with the intention of doing good and worship, then prostrate with Khudlu’s and khushu, how Allah will not honor them with a glory and place them in Daarul muqomah (Paradise)?

(Another reflection): Allah added Prophet Musa’s staff in the Qur’an with three names. They are Hayyatun Tas’aa, Janun and Tsu’banun Mubiin. Whereas the sentence of Tawhid has seventy names. The staff is the mu’jizat of Prophet Musa, while the sentence of Tawheed is the sentence of Maula (Allah). Allah says:

Meaning: “And the sentence of Allah is the highest…”. (QS. AT TAUBAH :40)

If the level of Prophet Musa has destroyed seventy thousand witchcraft tools, then it is appropriate that the sentence of Maula erases the sins of seventy years, from beginning to end.

FIFTH CHAPTER

THE TREASON OF THE JEWS AGAINST THE PROPHET ISA ALAIHISSALAAM

Allah says:

Meaning: “Those who disbelieve in deceit, and Allah avenges their deceit, and Allah is the best avenger of deceit”. (QS. Ali Imran: 54)

(The way the story goes): The Jews said: Jesus is a sorcerer, he can bring the dead back to life and other things that are the result of magic.

When Isa (peace be upon him) heard what they said, he felt sad. Then he prayed: Ilaahi, You are more aware of their disobedience, so change their forms.

So Allah changed their forms into monkeys and pigs. When the news reached the king of the Jews, he was frightened, lest Isa would curse him too. So he ordered him to be killed.

So the Jews gathered to carry out the order. When they came to Isa. He was in a house. They brought someone into the house to kill him. But before they could carry out their intention, Jibril descended and brought Isa through the roof of the house to the sky, while the person who entered was changed by Allah Subhaanahu wa ta’ala into the likeness of Isa alaihissalaam. Therefore, when the Jews entered the house, they captured their friend who had changed his appearance, then they killed him. They thought they had killed him, but they had not. As Allah tells us in the Qur’an:

“And because of what they said: We have killed the son of Mary, the Rosulullah, but they did not kill him, nor did they crucify him, but they killed the one whom they likened to him. Verily, those who disputed about the killing of Jesus were in doubt as to who was killed, and they had no certainty as to who it was, except by mere conjecture, nor were they certain that it was Jesus whom they killed; but (in truth) Allah raised him to Himself, and Allah is the Mighty, the Wise.” (QS. AN NIsa’ : 157-158)

It is said that the name of the person who was likened to Isa (peace be upon him) was Ashyuu’.

(Reflection): It is as if Allah is saying: I have raised Ashyuu’ for fifty years to make up for Isa (peace be upon him) from being killed, and I have raised Fir’aun for four hundred years with all the pleasures to make up for Moses (peace be upon him) from being drowned, and I raised the kibas goat, the victim of Abel, for four thousand years to make up for Ishmael (peace be upon him) from being slaughtered. And similarly, the Christians, Jews, disbelievers and polytheists I raised and I made wise to later redeem the Ummah of Muhammad (peace be upon him) from the punishment of hell.

(Narrated): From Rosulullah (peace be upon him), he said:

Meaning: “When the Day of Resurrection comes, each Muslim will be given a person from a different religion, and it will be said to him: This is your redeemer from hell.”

(Reflection): It is part of the Qodla and Qodar of Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta’ala that everything has a cause. Just as the elevation of Jesus (peace be upon him) was due to interference from the Jews, so Joseph (peace be upon him) became king of Egypt due to the malice of his brothers, so that he finally reached the decree that Allah had ordained; also because Allah wanted to show his forgiving and forgiving nature to the people of Muhammad (peace be upon him), so he made the devil’s anxiety the cause of their disobedience, so that he finally forgave and loved them.

As it has been said: “If there were not three things, three things would cease to exist. If there were no believers, there would be no Paradise Na’iim, and if there were no disbelievers, there would be no Hell Jahiim, and if there were no disobedient people, the Mercy of the Most Merciful Allah would not appear”.

SIXTH CHAPTER

THE PLOTS OF THE QURAISH IN DAARUNNADWAH AGAINST THE PROPHET MUHAMMAD (PEACE AND BLESSINGS OF ALLAH BE UPON HIM)

Allah’s Word

Meaning: “And remember, when the disbelievers of Quraysh thought of an attempt against you to capture you and imprison you or kill you or expel you, they thought of a trick and Allah foiled it in that culture, and Allah is the best avenger of tricks”. QS Al Anfal 30

Storyline: In the city of Mecca at the time of the prophet there was a place called Darun Nadwah. When there were important matters that needed to be deliberated upon, the leaders of Quraysh gathered there. Similarly, when the kingpins of Quraysh wanted to find an attempt to thwart the da’wah efforts of the prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), five leaders of the polytheists coma, namely: kutbah, saibah, abu Jahal, Abulbukhtari and Al’aash bin wa’il gathered at the darunnadwah. (In another narration, Atsttsa’labi says that there were 12 of them.)

When they entered the darun nadwah the devil, disguised as an old man with a stick, entered. Then abu Jahal said to him: we have gathered to discuss a very secret matter, so go home sir!

The devil replied: I am a sheikh from the land of Najd, I have lived some time and have tried some things, I know how to interpret and interpret accurately, so let me enter with you, so that I can help to show which words are true and which are false.

So they let him enter the Darunnadwah together.

Then they began to deliberate, the first to suggest an opinion was khutbah alaihilla’nah, he said: death is right, so be patient until Muhammad dies, and we are saved from his evil!

Iblis said: cis, what a bad opinion, you are not suitable, but as a herder of cattle and donkeys. If you had waited patiently until Muhammad died, then his religion would have flourished in the east and in the west and his huge army would have gathered and fought you until you all perished!

They all replied: “it is true what the shaykh najdi said”.

Then shaykh alaihilla’nah nah said: “I suggest that we imprison Muhammad in a house and lock the doors until he dies of hunger and thirst!”.

Iblis said: “this is also not right, for surely the Banu Hashim will gather and free him from your hands, then leave him alone, and there will be great enmity between you and the Banu Hashim”.

They replied in unison: “What Shaykh Najdi said is true”.

Then Al’aash bin Wail said: “let’s tie Muhammad to a camel, and then let him loose in the wilderness, so that he may be destroyed there!”.

So the devil said: “this is still not right, because Muhammad is well-built, well-featured and well-spoken, perhaps he will be met by someone who will show him the way to a city, and the people will confirm his words, and he manages to gather a large following then he returns with a large army to fight you?!”. “.

They exclaimed: “righteous shaikh Najdi!!!”.

Then it was abu Jahal la’natullah alaih’s turn to express his opinion, and he said: I think it would be best for each caravan to send out a young man, each armed with a weapon. And when the night comes, we nest Muhammad simultaneously and then we kill him together so that no one knows who the real killer is. And if his relatives ask for a fine, then we can collect the money from each tribe and give it to them, thus we stop their demands and we are free from his evil.

So Iblis la’natullah alaih said: “Your opinion is right”.

They agreed to carry out the opinion of abu Jahal at which point they dispersed out of Darunnadwah to realize the evil plan.

Then Jibril (peace be upon him) descended with the verse mentioned first, saying to Muhammad (peace be upon him): “O Muhammad, Allah says: go out from the city of Mecca to the city of Medina because in that affair there is a secret that I am planning”.

Meaning: “Do not be daunted, for after hardship there is ease, and for everything there is a time and a rule. And in every situation, Allah is always watching over our plans, Allah is the one who decides”.

When evening approached, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) held a meeting with his companions and said: “Which of you will accompany me as Allah has commanded me to go out to Madinah?”

Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) replied: “I, O Messenger of Allah!”.

Then the Messenger of Allah looked at his companions and said: “Which of you is willing to sleep on my bed, I guarantee him Paradise?”.

Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said: “I, O Messenger of Allah, am willing to sacrifice my life for His Majesty, because I am His Majesty’s brother”.

Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: “I heard ‘Ali ibn Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him) composing verses, while the Messenger of Allah was listening to him”.

It means: “I am Mushthafa’s brother, there is no doubt in my lineage my grandmother and the Prophet’s grandmother are one point I confirm it while people are in the darkness of misguidance and misery point all praise to Allah there is no partner for him who is very kind to the servant and eternal for all time “.

Hearing these verses, the Messenger of Allah smiled, saying: “You are right, O Ali!”.

(Back to the original story): “that night Ali stayed at the Prophet’s house, on his bed”.

On that night, the disbelievers came to surround the house of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) to spy on the exit of the Messenger of Allah. Among them was Iblis la’natullah alaihi, so Allah gave them drowsiness and inattention, so they all fell asleep, including Iblis alaihila’na who never slept quietly that night.

So out came the Messenger of Allah accompanied by Abu Bakr. They saw the disbelievers asleep, while their weapons were next to them at that point, so the Messenger of Allah took some earth and sprinkled it on their heads.

It is narrated that the Messenger of Allah recited surah Yasin when going past the disbelievers, so that none of them could see him, thanks to the glory of surah Yasin.

When the Messenger of Allah had passed by, Iblis (peace be upon him) woke up, so he immediately woke them up, saying: Muhammad has gone, do you not see that he has scattered earth over your heads?!

They got up and looked for the Messenger of Allah in his bed. When they saw Ali Radhiyallahu anhu lying there, they asked: “where is Muhammad?! “.

Halim replied: “God Most High has taken His prophet away in the direction He willed. So do not look for him on earth, for he may be in the high heavens”.

(It is narrated from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that Allah revealed to Jibril and Mikail (peace and blessings be upon them): “I have made a brotherhood between you two, and I have made the life of one of you longer than the other, so which of you two is willing to give his life to his brother?”.

Each of them wanted his own life to be longer. Then Allah revealed to them again: “Do you not want to be like Ali ibn Abi Talib. I have joined him to Muhammad, then he sacrificed his soul for his brother at that point so descend you two to the earth and protect him from his enemies!”.

So the two angels descended, Gabriel at the head and Michael at the feet, and Gabriel (peace be upon him) murmured: “Good! Good! Who can match you, O Ali, Allah has praised you before the angels of heaven”.

While the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) was on his way to Madinah, Allah sent down a revelation regarding the condition of Ali (peace be upon him), namely:

Meaning: “and among men there are those who sacrifice themselves seeking the pleasure of Allah, and Allah is merciful to His servants”.

And Ali Radhiyallahu Anhu said, when he stayed overnight on the Prophet’s bed:

Meaning: “I sacrifice myself for the best of men.

People who circumambulate the Baitul atiq and Hajar Aswad.

The divine Messenger was afraid of being deceived by them but he was saved by Allah from being deceived.

The Prophet stayed in the cave safely.

Preserved by Allah with a curtain

And I stayed watching them, and they could not force me.

I have decided to wage myself for murder or slavery”.

(Back to the original story): after they did not find the Messenger of Allah in his house. So they held deliberations for 3 days. Then they went out in search of his trail, they sent Suroqoh bin Malik towards Medina.

Suroqoh followed the footsteps of the Prophet, until finally he found the Prophet. He was seen by Abu Bakr Radhiallahu anhu, Abu Bakr said: “O Messenger of Allah we are found by Suroqoh!”.

This suroko was one of the brave Arab heroes. But the Messenger of Allah said: “Don’t worry!”.

Once near, Suroko cried out: “O Muhammad, who will defend you from me today?”. “.

The Messenger of Allah replied: “It is Allah the Mighty who will prevent your intention”.

Then Gabriel descended, saying: “O Muhammad, Allah has spoken for you: I have made the earth subject to you, so command it as you please!”.

Then the Messenger of Allah said: “O earth, swallow it!”.

So the earth swallowed Suroko up to his knees, Suroko spurred his horse, but it could not be moved. Then he said: “O Muhammad, grant me safety, by the glory of Uzza, if you save me, I will side with you”.

Then the Messenger of Allah released him at which point it is mentioned in some commentaries that Suroko repeated his actions 7 times, each time he broke his promise, the earth swallowed him.

Finally on the 8th time he repented sincerely. then he took out an arrow from his pocket, then gave it to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) saying: “O Muhammad I have cattle in this direction of your journey, so contact their shepherds and ask what you need from them”.

The Messenger of Allah replied: “O Suroqoh, if you do not want to embrace Islam, then I am not interested in your wealth and cattle”.

Suroko said: “O Muhammad, one day your preaching will appear throughout the world, and you will rule over people so let us make a covenant, when that day comes, I will declare my Islam”.

Then the Prophet took a pottery and gave it to Suroko, saying: “this is my covenant with you!”

Suroko said: “O Muhammad, ask me for your wish!”.

The Messenger of Allah replied: “O Suroqoh, my request of you is that you send back the Quraish troops”.

Then Suroqoh returned, on the way he met Abu Jahal, he said: “O Abu Jahl, Muhammad did not go this way!”.

They returned home.

Abu Jahl said to her: “O Suroqoh, I thought you had met Muhammad, tell us what really happened”.

So Suroqoh prayed:

Meaning: “O Abba Hakam, by Lata, if God is watching.

You will know, and will not doubt that Muhammad is a messenger who brings clear evidence, why should we not honor him. Let the Lord send the troops home from him, for I am sure his glory and position will appear one day”.

7TH CHAPTER

THE PLOT OF THE JEWS AGAINST THE PROHIBITION OF ALLAAH.

That is, Allah honored the Prophet Moses (peace be upon him) on Saturday, and he commanded his people not to work on that day in any worldly matters, such as buying, selling, trading, dealing and so on.

In a land called Ailah, whose inhabitants were fishermen, Allah sent to them the Prophet David (peace be upon him), bringing a message from his Lord prohibiting the fishermen from fishing on Saturday, while on other days it was allowed.

So the Prophet David conveyed the message of his Lord to the people of Ailah, but they rejected it. then God tested them with a trial, namely on every Saturday all the fish gathered in their sea, while on other days not a single fish was there. So there was a prolonged period of famine. And Allah spread famine among them.

They built ponds and rivers and poured the water from the rivers into the ponds on Saturdays, and when they saw that the ponds were full of fish, they closed the end of the rivers with boards.

In another narration, it is said that they set their nets on Friday after the Asr prayer, and they take them out on Sunday. They would eat the fish and sell them.

The scholars of jurisprudence and the people of Zayd had advised them many times, but they continued to commit this offense, so the scholars went out from among them so as not to be exposed to disaster with them.

When Allah was about to torture them, He let them do as they wished for 2 years. All the while he kept sending them people to warn and advise them, but still they refused to accept all kinds of warnings and advice.

Finally, when one day the scholars, jurists and Zahids entered the city, they found no one. So they opened the doors of the houses and entered them, and suddenly they saw that the men and women had all turned into monkeys. As Allah tells us in the Qur’an:

Meaning: “then when they forgot what they were warned about. We saved those who forbade from evil deeds, and We inflicted on the wrongdoers a severe punishment, because they had always acted unlawfully.

So when they became arrogant about what they were forbidden to do. We said to him, “Be you a despised ape!” (QS. Al A’rof: 165-166).

(A word of advice): the one who deceives in order to catch fish has been transformed into a despicable ape. What about the one who seeks to legalize usury, which Allah has forbidden!

Allah has told this story to his beloved Muhammad (peace be upon him) in seven places:

– First, the words of Allah:

Meaning: “Indeed, it is obligatory (to honor) Saturday upon those (Jews) who dispute about it….” (QS. An Nahl: 124)

– Second, the word of Allah:

Meaning: “And indeed you have known those who transgress among you on Saturday…”. (QS. Al Baqoroh: 65)

– Third, the word of Allah:

Meaning: “…. Or we will curse them as we cursed those who transgressed on Saturday…”. (QS. An Nisaa’)

– Fourth, the word of Allah:

Meaning: “… And We commanded them: “transgress not the ordinance of Saturday…”. (QS. An Nisaa’: 154)

– Fifth, the word of Allah:

Meaning: “And ask the Children of Israel about the land that lies by the sea, when they broke the rule of Saturday…”. (QS. Al’roof: 163)

– Sixth, the word of Allah:

Meaning: “… When the fish came to them on Saturday, floating on the surface of the water…” (QS. Al A’roof: 163)

– Seventh, the word of Allah:

Meaning: “… And on days that are not Saturday, the fish do not come to them…”. (QS. Al A’roof: 163)

Glory be to the One Whose actions are not like the actions of creatures. And knows not the essence of His wisdom, but those who have their eyes opened.

One fish taken by the Jews has made them abject apes; and one fish taken by the prophet, a king in the king of fishes. Iblis, whose origin was the Arsh, eventually became humiliated and expelled; while Umar bin Khattab, whose origin was an idol, became a loved one.

There are several opinions about the meaning of Saturday. Some scholars say that Saturday means ‘Adim (great). It is so named because Saturday is revered by the Jews. And others say that Saturday is for rest. As Allah says:

Meaning: “It is He who made for you the night (as) a garment and sleep for rest…”. (QS. Al Furqon: 47)

It is called rest, because the Jews on Saturday rest from worldly affairs.

When a Jew was asked: “For what reason do you not work with worldly affairs on Saturday?”. They replied: “Because Allah ta’ala does not make anything on that day”.

(narrated): Some Jews came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) and asked: “O Muhammad, tell us what Allah has created on the days of the week?”.

The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) replied: “On Sunday Allah created the heavens and the earth. On Monday Allah created the mountains. On Tuesday Allah created the animals. On Wednesday Allah created light. On Thursday Allah created heaven and hell. And on Friday God created Adam and Eve”.

The Jew said: “You are right, if you complete the answer!”.

The Prophet asked: “what is the perfection?”.

They answered: “When Allah has completed creating the heavens and the earth then he sits back and crosses his legs and rests. And that happened on Saturday, that’s why we made Saturday a feast day and we rested on that day”.

Hearing their words, the Prophet felt sorry. So Allah sent down a revelation that reads:

Meaning: “And verily we have created the heavens and the earth, and what is between them, in six days, and we are not weary in the least” (Qaaf: 38).

This weariness only befalls those who work with tools and limbs, whereas Allah creates things only by saying: “Be!”. So what He wills comes to be. Allah says:

Meaning: “And our command is but a single word like the blink of an eye (i.e. very fast).” (Qs. Qomar: 50)

And His words:

Meaning: “Verily, we say to a thing when we will it. We only say to Him: Let it be, and it shall be.” (An Nahl: 40)

The Jews thought that Saturday was a day of rest for them, but it was a day of judgment. And they thought that Saturday was a day of joy, whereas allah made it a day of mourning.

Said peace be upon him: “Saturday is for the Jews, and Friday is for you. So do not transgress Allah’s commands on that day, just as the Jews and Christians transgressed Allah’s prohibitions on Saturday, so that the transgressors became apes and pigs”.

Indeed, the Jews transgressed the commandment of Allah on the appointed day, so Allah changed their appearance, while the believers obeyed Allah and performed the Friday prayer as commanded, so Allah turned their sins into good:

Meaning: “Then they are those whom Allah replaces their evil with good…”. (QS. Al Furqon: 70)

Allah did not change the appearance of the Jews because they caught fish, but they were changed because they had disregarded Allah’s commands, and worked on His prohibitions.

Had not Adam and Eve eaten the fruits of Paradise, then their ‘awrahs appeared, while the worm that ate the leaves of Paradise became honey in its stomach. That is because there is eating without the permission of Allah Ta’ala.

And even stranger than that is the caterpillar that ate the flesh on the body of Job (peace be upon him), so it turned into a fragrance in his stomach. It is strange that a man eating fish, which is wrathful to God, turns into a despicable monkey, while a caterpillar that eats human flesh, but is blessed by God, its excrement becomes fragrant. Because one eats without His permission, while the worm is obedient to its Lord, it deserves honor.

And a believer who is Mukhlish, if he is obedient to Allah, how can he not receive mercy, qorobah and karomah?

(A hikayayat) : It is narrated that a man who was famous for his wickedness and evil, drinking wine and doing mischief, his name was: Utbah Al Ghulaam. One day he entered the recitation hall of Al Hasan Albashri (may Allah have mercy on him). There he heard one of the reciters reciting the verses of the Holy Qur’an, namely verse 16 of surah al-Hadiid, which reads:

It means: “Has the time not come for those who believe to submit their hearts to the remembrance of Allah and to the truth that has been revealed to them, and let them not be like those to whom the Scripture was previously revealed, then a long time passed over them and their hearts became hardened, and most of them were ungodly people”.

Then the Asshaikh interpreted the verse, going on to discuss it in a way that struck a chord with his listeners, so much so that the people present shed tears, weeping bitterly.

A young man rose from among them and said: “O Imam Mu’minin, will Allah Ta’ala accept the repentance of a disobedient person like me?”.

Asysyaikh replied: “Yes, He will accept your repentance, even if your wickedness and evil is like Utbah Al Ghulam’s!”.

When Utbah heard Asshaik’s words, his face turned pale, his limbs trembled and he screamed so loudly that he fell unconscious.

When he regained consciousness, he approached the Asshaik, and the Asshaik recited a verse which reads:

Meaning: “O young man who has disobeyed the Lord of the Arsh do you know what is the recompense of the disobedient?

Hell is for them, a place of destruction woe to them on the day of the hair in Jambak.

If you are patient in hell then disobey if not, then avoid the disobedience.

And the sins that you have committed you have humiliated yourself so try to free it”.

When he regained consciousness he said: “O Shaykh, will God accept repentance from someone like me who is vile?”.

The Shaykh replied: “Who else accepts the repentance of a sinful servant but God, the Almighty?”.

Then the wage-earner raised his head and prayed three famous prayers:

– First: “O Divine, if you accept my repentance, and you forgive my sins, then grant me With understanding and strong memorization, so that I can remember all the knowledge and verses of the Quran that I hear”.

– Second: “Ilahi, grant me a good and melodious voice, so that everyone who listens to it will grow soft at heart, even if he is hard-hearted.

– Third: “Divine, grant me lawful sustenance from an unexpected source”.

So Allah granted all his requests, so that his understanding and memorization became stronger, and when he was reciting the verses of the Qur’an, the people who heard him became soft-hearted and immediately repented and returned to the straight path. In his house there was a large plate that always contained soup and bread, without anyone knowing where it came from. This is the state of the one who returns to Allah, may He be exalted and exalted, and this is the state of the one who returns to Allah, may He be exalted and exalted.

This is the state of one who returns to Allah, for indeed Allah does not waste the deeds of those who do good.

May Allah bless us all with His blessings, amen.

Chapter 2: THE DAY OF AHAD

Allah’s Word:

Meaning: “Say: He is Allah, the One.” (QS. Al Iklhlash: 1)

Narrated Anas ibn Malik (may Allah be pleased with him): The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was asked about Sunday, and he replied: “Sunday is the day of planting and building!”.

The Companions asked: “What is the reason for this, O Messenger of Allah?”.

The Messenger of Allah replied: “Because on that day Allah began to create the world and prosper it.”

(Description): Some scholars say that the Almighty Creator has created seven kinds of things among the creatures, and each one of them is further broken down into seven.

The seven kinds of things are: the paths of the stars, the moving stars, the storied hell, the stratified earth, the vast sea, the human limbs, and the days of the week.

THE FIRST CHAPTER

THE CREATION OF THE WAY OF THE STARS

The creation of Falak (the way of the stars), was created by Allah on Sunday. Allah said:

Meaning: “Who has created the seven heavens in layers”. (QS. Al Mulk: 3)

Which Allah created from smoke, as He said:

Meaning: “Then he went on to create the heavens, which were still smoke…”. (QS. Fushshilat: 11)

Allah looked at the smoke and made it into seven parts: one part was water, the second was dew, the third was silver, the fourth was gold, the fifth was pearls, the sixth was pomegranates and the seventh was iron.

Then Allah created the heavens of the world, first of water, second of dew, third of iron, fourth of silver, fifth of gold, sixth of pearls, and seventh of rubies. After that he split it, and each part was 500 years apart.

(Reflection): Allah has created from one smoke, seven layers of sky that are different from each other. But what is even stranger is the water that Allah sent down from the sky that serves to revive the dead (barren) earth. From the droplets of water, different kinds of plants grow, some red, yellow, black and white, and some are sweet and some are bitter.

The word of Allah:

Meaning: “… We preferred some of the gardens over others in taste…”. (QS. Ar Ro’d :4)

And stranger than all that is that one drop of male germ (semen) that is spilled into a woman’s womb, made by Allah a clot of frozen blood, then made into a piece of meat, after that made into bones, until finally it is a human baby. Some are male and some are female. Some are believers and some are disbelievers. Some are pious and some are wicked. Some are sincere and some are hypocrites. There are those who glorify God and those who deny. And from that nutfah there is also one who is Sa’id (happy) and another who is Shaqi (wretched). so Allah is the best of creators.

SECOND CHAPTER

THE CREATION OF THE MOVING STARS

The stars were also created by Allah on Sunday. Allah said:

Meaning: ‘And it is He who made the stars for you, that you may take guidance in the darkness of the land and the sea…’. (QS. Al An’aam: 97)

Allah made the stars in three forms:

– First: Stars called Tsawabit (fixed stars), which are stars that neither move nor set.

– Chief: stars that rise and set.

– When: stars that circulate in their circuits.

Of these three kinds of stars, there are 7 major ones, namely: Zuhal, Musytari, Marykh, Shamsu, Zahro, Athorid and Qhomar.

Qhomar in the first phalanx, Athorid in the second, Zahro in the third, Shamsu in the fourth, Marykh in the fifth, Mushitari in the sixth, and Zuhal in the seventh.

Thus Allah has set 7 phases in the sky as the place of circulation for the 7 planets. And each star circulates once every thousand years.

Similarly, seven of the anbiya’ are the most great and noble. They are: Shith, Idris, Ibrohim, Moses, David, Jesus and Muhammad (peace be upon him) ajma’iin. Allah gave to each of them shuhufs and books. Prophet Shith got 50 Shahifah.

Prophet Idris got 30 Shahifah, Prophet Abraham got 20 Shahifah. Prophet Moses got the book of the Torah. Prophet David got the book of Zabur. Prophet Jesus received the Gospel and Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) received the Quran.

Allah says:

Meaning: “And it is He who made the stars for you, that you may take guidance in the darkness on land and sea…”. (QS. Al An’aam: 97)

The seven stars mentioned above are not equal in their circulation. Each Qomar, yes, rises on the first phallus, and stays on each buruj for two and a half days, while its circulation around the phallus is entirely within 1 month.

Athorid, rises on the second phallus, and stays on each buruj for 15 days, while its circulation goes around the whole phallus in 6 months. Zahro, rises in the third phalak, and stays 25 days in each buruj and circulates around the phalak entirely in 10 months. Shamsu, rises on the 4th phallus stays on each buruj for a month, and circulates around the phallus entirely within 1 year. Mariikh, rising on the fifth phalacteric, stays at each buruj for 50 days, and circulates around the phalac entirely in 18 months.

Musytari, rises on the 6th phallus, and stays on each buruj for 30 months, and circulates around the Falak entirely for 13 years. Zuhal, rises on the 7th phallus, stays for 2 years on each buruj, and circumambulates the whole phallus in a period of 30 years.

(Conclusion): Similarly, the Ummah of Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) is also divided into 7 groups, namely: Shiddiquun, ‘Aamiliun, Budalaa, Shuhadaa’, Hujjaaj, Muthiiuun, and ‘Aashuun.

The Shiddiquun will pass through sirotol mustaqim like lightning, ‘Aamiliun will pass through it like the wind, Budalaa will pass through it like a bird in a short time, Shuhadaa’ will pass through it like a galloping horse, Hujjaaj will pass through it in one day, Muthiiuun will pass through it in one month, while ‘Aashuun every time he put his foot on the sirot, the sins he was carrying caused him to almost slip into hell, and the fire of hell was about to burn him, but the light of faith emanating from his heart managed to repel the flames of hell so that the fire said: Pass on, O believer, for your light has extinguished my fire and flame! .

THIRD CHAPTER

THE CREATION OF HELLFIRE ON SUNDAY

Allah created the fire of Hell on Sunday. Hell has seven doors, as Allah says:

Meaning: “Hellfire has seven gates, each of which is appointed for a certain class of people…”. (QS. Al Hijr: 44)

That is 7 levels:

Jahanam, the word of Allah:

Meaning: “Indeed, Jahanam is indeed a place that has been threatened to all of them (followers of Satan)”. (QS. Al Hij’r: 43)

Saa’irr, says Allah:

Meaning: “And he will enter into saa’irr (the blazing fire of Hell)”. (QS. Al Insyiqooq: 12)

Saqor, says Allah:

Meaning: “What is it that puts you into Saqor (hell)”. (QS. Al Muddatstsir: 42).

Jahiim, the word of Allah:

Meaning: “And the hell of Jahim is clearly shown to those who go astray.” (QS. Ash Shu’aroo: 91).

Huthomah, says Allah:

Meaning: “And do you know what huthomah is?”. (QS. Al Humazah: 5)

Ladhoo, says Allah:

Meaning: “Never, indeed, is Hell a raging fire”. (QS. Al Ma’aarij : 15 )

Haawiyah, says Allah:

Meaning: “Then the place of return is the hell of hawiyah”. (QS. Al Qoori’ah: 9)

– In the first level of hell is shouted:

Meaning: “So great will be the misfortune on that day of those who deny.” (QS. Ath Thuur :11)

– In the second level it is cried out:

Meaning: “So great will be the calamity of those who pray, that is, those who neglect their prayers.” (QS. Al Maa’uun: 4-5)

– On the third level it is cried out:

Meaning: “misfortune be to every swearer and backbiter.” (QS. Al Huumazah: 1)

– In the fourth level it is cried out:

Meaning: “”… And great is their calamity for what they have done.” (QS. Al Baqoroh: 79)

– On the fifth level is shouted:

Meaning: “And great is the misfortune of those who associate partners with Him”. (QS. Fushshilat :6)

– And on the sixth level is shouted:

Meaning: “… So great is the misfortune of those whose hearts have become hardened to the remembrance of Allah…”.

– And on the seventh level it is cried out:

Meaning: “Great is the calamity of those who cheat (in measure)”. (QS. Al Muthoffifiin: 1)

(Reflection): the inhabitants of hell in the seventh level call out:

Meaning: “… O Malik (the name of the guardian angel of hell), let your god kill us only!” (QS. Az Zukhruf: 77)

– On the sixth level, the inhabitants cried out:

Meaning: “Supplicate to your Lord that he may alleviate our punishment for a day.” (QS. Al Mu’min: 49)

– The inhabitants of the fifth level of Hell cried out:

Meaning: “… O our Lord, we have seen and heard, so bring us back (to the world) we will do righteous deeds. ..”. (QS. As Sajdah: 12)

– On the fourth level the inhabitants cry out:

Meaning: “… O our Lord, give us respite (return us to the world) even for a little time, surely we will obey your call, and will follow the messengers.” (QS. Ibrahim: 44)

– The inhabitants of the third level of hell cried out:

Meaning: “O our Lord, take us out of it (and return us to the world) so that if we return (also to disbelief) surely we are wrongdoers”. (QS. Al Mu’minuun: 107)

– The inhabitants of the second level of Hell cried out:

Meaning: “O our Lord, we have been overcome by our wickedness…” (QS. Al Mu’minuun :106)

– The inhabitants of the first level of hell exclaim:

(Another reflection): The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) asked the angel Gabriel (peace be upon him) about the inhabitants of each level of Hell, and Gabriel replied: “The seventh level of Hell is for the hypocrites. The sixth level is the place of those who disobey and proclaim themselves as God. The fifth level is the place of those who are arrogant and persecuted. The fourth level is the place of the arrogant and disbelievers. The third level is the place of the Jews. The second level is the place of the Christians”.

Then Jibril was silent, not continuing his explanation. So the Prophet asked Jibril about the inhabitants of the first level of hell, finally after being forced by the Prophet, Jibril explained: “The inhabitants of the first level of hell are the disobedient people of your ummah!”.

Hearing Jibril’s explanation, Rasoolullah fell unconscious at the last point after regaining consciousness, he cried with sobs, then he went into his house and locked the door. Then he prayed to his Lord. Then the angel Gabriel descended with good news, namely: Intercession.

FOURTH CHAPTER

The word of Allah subhanahu wa Ta’ala:

Meaning: “It is Allah who created the seven heavens, and like them the earth…” (QS. Ath Tholaaq: 12)

It is reported that Abdullah bin Salam came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) and asked: “O Muhammad, from what did Allah create the earth?”.
