EPISODE 1

Page 282 - Guidance Comes from Allah Alone

In this episode of the tafsīr series, Shaykh Dr. Aḥsan Hanif reflects on the opening verses of Surah Al-Isra (1-8), highlighting the miraculous Night Journey of the Prophet Muḥammad ﷺ from Al-Masjid Al-Ḥaram to Al-Masjid Al-Aqṣa, through which Allah honoured His Servant and showed him His signs. These verses affirm that Allah alone is the source of guidance and that He is the All-Hearing, the All-Seeing. We are reminded that gratitude, obedience, and humility lead to success, while corruption and arrogance bring consequences upon oneself. The verses emphasise personal accountability: doing good benefits us, and wrongdoing returns upon us. Yet Allah leaves the door of mercy open, calling us to repentance and a return to His guidance.

Page 283 - Everyone Is Accountable Before Allah سبحانه و تعالى

In this episode of the tafsīr series, Shaykh Dr. Aḥsan Hanif explains Sūrah Al-Isrāʾ (verses 9–17), and how the Qur’ān guides people to what is right. It gives good news to those who believe and do good deeds, and warns those who do not believe in the Hereafter of serious punishment. He further explains the nature of human haste, the signs of night and day, and how Allah has set everything with wisdom and order. The verses remind us that each person is responsible for their own actions, and everyone will see their deeds on the Day of Judgement. No one will carry the burden of another. These verses also remind us of past nations destroyed after Prophet Nuḥ (AS), showing that Allah is fully Aware and All-Seeing of everything His servants do.

Page 284 - Dunya or the Ākhirah?

In this episode of the tafsīr series, Shaykh Dr. Aḥsan Hanif explains verses from Sūrah Al-Isrāʾ (18–25), where Allah teaches the difference between those who seek only this world and those who strive for the Hereafter. Those who pursue worldly gain alone may receive some of it, but the Hereafter is far greater in reward and rank for those who believe and strive sincerely. The verses remind us that all provision comes from Allah, who gives as He wills, yet the Hereafter is higher in value and lasting reward. Allah commands that we worship Him alone and treat our parents with kindness, humility, and mercy, especially in their old age. We are taught to speak gently to them and pray for them, recognising their sacrifices. Allah knows what is in our hearts and is Most Forgiving to those who return to Him with sincere intentions.

Page 288 - Resurrection and Allah's Justice

In this episode of the tafsir series, Shaykh Dr. Ahsan Hanif explains verses from Surah Al-Isra (59–65). Allah ﷻ tells us that signs are sent as warnings, yet many people still deny them, just like earlier nations. The verses recall Iblis refusing to bow to Adam عليه السلام and his promise to mislead people through false hopes and distractions. Allah ﷻ makes it clear that Shaytan has no power over sincere believers and that real protection comes only from Him. In hardship people turn to Allah ﷻ, but in ease they often forget, these verses remind us to stay grateful, aware, and firm in faith.
