November 01, 2023, 03:44:32 pm Zainab_M: Allahhuma ameen .. ameen.
November 01, 2023, 03:43:43 pm Ruhi_Rose: Yes .. making lots of dua everyday ..... watching those real life video clips, my face feels wet with tears all the time.  May ALLAH grant the best to these wonderful, brave & steadfast martyrs,  Ameen ya Allah.
November 01, 2023, 03:38:26 pm Zainab_M: Keep praying, praying a lot for Gaza. It's worse than a prison .. it's a concentration camp.  Children as young as 10 or 11 are having to care for their younger siblings ages 2, 3 and 4 becoz many have lost both parents.  It's a very, very, very tearful situation there.
October 26, 2023, 03:40:19 pm N. Truth Seeker: Don't forget to look up MV Blog Zainab's Lounge for our Gaza updates.
October 20, 2023, 04:24:44 pm Zainab_M: Right sister Heba.  Gaza hospital bombing has the fingerprints of Israel all over it.  For Israel this is no big crime.  They have done this and much worse many times in the past and intend to do the same and worse many more times in near future.
October 20, 2023, 04:20:20 pm Heba E. Husseyn: Catching Zionist lies isn't hard. Soon after Gaza hospital bombing killing and maiming hundreds, Israel was quick to accuse Islamic Jihad of a misfired rocket.  That didn't sound plausible because IJ does not have such sophisticated bombing devices.  Zionist lie was fully exposed when anglican archbishop of Jerusalem,Hosam Naoum,  said today that 3 or 4 days prior to boming Israel had warned Gaza hospital to evacuate. Yet CIA claims in its flawed analysis that the rocket did not come from Israel.  But conveniently does not explain how Israel could have known 4 days earlier that a "misfired" rocket from IJ was coming.  Yet on the basis of this flawed & bias analysis of CIA, Biden is comforting Israel he believes Israel didn't do that war crimes bombing.
July 29, 2023, 03:02:07 am Zainab_M: Yesterday was Ashura, Muharram 10, 1444 (July 27, 2023).  Read about this very tragic day and details of the world's greatest 7th century revolutionary: WHO WAS HUSSEIN.
June 28, 2023, 09:48:39 am Zainab_M: Walaikum As Salaam.  This was the first Hajj open to all after the pandemic. It was attended by 2.6 million Muslims.

 BismEm


"So We removed them from gardens and springs"    26:57  Ash-Shu'ara
"And treasures and a fair estate."   26:58  Ash-Shu'ara
"Thus (were those things taken from them) and We caused the Children of Israel to inherit them."   26:59  Ash-Shu'ara



As-Salam Alaykum dear folks.    The above Verses refer to the end result of the loss of Pharaoh and his party (by drowning) and the success acquiring the good things of life by Bani Israil (Hebrews) who were the oppressed ethnic group in Egypt during the time of Pharaoh.   My question is, does the inheritance of good things by Bani Israil refer to this world or the next?   I was thinking about it.  If we interpret it as this world, that might refer to the good things in Egypt which Pharaoh lost and Bani Israil got.  But Bani Israil never returned to Egypt after the Exodus, right?

Walaikum As-Salam dear Sister Ruhi.    That's very true.   Bani Israil didn't return.  They went ahead toward their destination as ordained by Allah Almighty.   The reference here is to this world.   Whatever riches and comfort Pharaoh and his people lost in this world, was achieved by Bani Israil in the new land they went to, that is, the region of Palestine or the holy land.

Drowning in the Red Sea was not only a disaster for Pharaoh but for his entire group of army and courtiers.  Pharaoh and his party were wiped out.  They were wealthy people steeped in luxury, comfort and riches.  They lost all of that with death overtaking them while they pursued Prophet Musa (pbuh) and his followers.   If they had permitted Prophet Musa and his people to leave peacefully, Pharaoh's party could have retained their possessions.  But the plan of Pharaoh and his advisers was self-destructive.

There are some commentators of the Noble Quran who think that these Verses may allude to the Israelites return to Egypt after Pharaoh's drowning.  But this presumption is certainly wrong.  It is neither supported by other Verses of the Noble Quran nor by history.   According to history, the Pharaohs ruled ancient Egypt for approximately 2,500 years until 800 BC.   Rameses II who was drowned pursuing Prophet Musa (pbuh) lived approximately (please note, approximately) during the mid 1,200s or maybe 1300 BC.  That means after Rameses II, several other of his successors came to rule until 800 BC .. a time stretch of approximately 400 years or so.   Thus, if the Hebrews returned, they would again be oppressed by the same lot.  They certainly did not return, and as stated, this is not supported by the Quran nor history.   All significant later events involving the Hebrew Israelites took place in the regions presently known as the Sinai Peninsula and Palestine.

"Therefore We took retribution from them; therefore We drowned them in the sea: because they denied Our revelations and were heedless of them."  7:136 Al-Araf.
"And We caused the folk who were despised to inherit the eastern parts of the land and the western parts thereof which We had blessed. And the fair word of your Rab was fulfilled for the Children of Israel because of their endurance; and We annihilated (all) that Pharaoh and his folk had done and that they had contrived."   7:137  Al-Araf.


Above Verse 7:137 clearly asserts that the good things which Bani Israil inherited were outside of Egypt. 




"O my people! Go into the holy land ("al-arda al-muqadasata")  which Allah has ordained for you. Turn not in flight, for surely you turn back as losers:"  5:21 Al-Maidah.

Above Verse 5:21 uses the title of "holy land" for Palestine.  This had been the home of the Prophets Abraham, Isaac and Jacob (peace of them all), followers of Monotheism.  Thus, when Bani Israil oppressed by Pharaoh left Egypt with Prophet Musa (pbuh), Allah commanded them to go to Palestine.   

Please note:  These were the Hebrews or Semite Arab Jews, NOT the phony Ashkenazi European Jews who descended from the Khazars in Ukraine and southern Ukraine regions much later, the migrated to Europe and then robbed Palestine in 1948 pretending to be descendants of Arab semite Jews.  The Khazar empire converted to Judaism as late as the 6th century BC.  They were Caucasians.

Subhan'Allah, very helpful.   And thanks for the links dear sis.  Yeah, of course I know that hidden history but it's important for our readers to know too.

Btw, any idea what might have been the broad estimate of time between the coming of Prophets Musa and Essa (peace on them) ?

While only Allah Almighty knows it accurately, according to current historians the gap between the coming of Prophets Musa and Essa (peace on them both) is surmised to be approximately 1,300 years.  In between this period came Prophets Daud and Sulaiman (David and Solomon) (peace on them both).  That would mean, the era of Prophets Daud and Sulaiman (peace on them) was approximately 400 to 300 years before Prophet Essa (pbuh).    And only Allah knows best.

Good question and very well explicated.  We took up these Verses for explanation a few months ago in our meeting, but some hadithists went around with too much guesswork, deviating far away from Quranic information supporting this Verses.

Marvelously educative thread, Alhumdulilah. 

I can imagine the incorrect stories that will sprout if you try to get the interpretation from the ahadith.
