Tafsir Surat Al Nasr: The Divne Support, Victory
http://quran.com/110
Every Friday after isha prayer (8:30PM) Sheikh Moussa teaches us the tafsir of the Quran in English.
Last week we took Part 1 of Surat Al Nasr.
When you intial read the Surahs name you think victory as in winning but the tafsir the Sheikh taught us gives you a whole other meaning and definition to this term.
An-Nasr :The Divine Support
The Sheikh said,
Surat Al Nasr is the last Surah to have been revealed to the Prophet Muhmmad. It was revealed about 80 days prior to the Prophets death and after her performed Hajj Al Wadaah - The Farewell Pilgiramge. This Surah is called Al Nasr because Allah is telling the Prophet in this Surah that he was victorous as he completed his honarable role of relaying the message of Islam, the messgae that there is No God but Allah and Muhmmad is His Final Messenger. The Prophet was successful in spreading the message and people have accepted the message. Allah is giving the Prophet glad tidings. Allah also reveals to the Prophet that he only has a few days to live.
Allah ends the Surah telling the Prophet to make tasbeh (Thanking and Praising Him) and istghfar (ask for forgivness).
The sheikh also mentioned how our goal of dawah should not be to make people become Muslim but rather relay the most clearest message we can of what Islam is and the acceptance of truth is upon gudiance from Allah.
So now when you read Surat Al Nasr understand it from this point

An-Nasr :The Divine Support
When the victory of Allah has come and the conquest,
And you see the people entering into the religion of Allah in multitudes,
Then exalt [Him] with praise of your Lord and ask forgiveness of Him. Indeed, He is ever Accepting of repentance.
