واذ اخذنا ميثاق بني اسراييل لا تعبدون الا الله وبالوالدين احسانا وذي القربى واليتامى والمساكين وقولوا للناس حسنا واقيموا الصلاة واتوا الزكاة ثم توليتم الا قليلا منكم وانتم معرضون ٨٣
Dan (ingatlah) ketika Kami mengambil janji dari Bani Israil, "Janganlah kamu menyembah selain Allah, dan berbuat baiklah kepada kedua orang tua, kerabat, anak-anak yatim, dan orang-orang miskin. Dan bertutur katalah yang baik kepada manusia, laksanakan salat dan tunaikanlah zakat." Tetapi kemudian kamu berpaling (mengingkari), kecuali sebagian kecil dari kamu, dan kamu (masih menjadi) pembangkang.
How Surah آل عمران (Āl ʿImrān — The Family of Imran) completes what Surah البقرة (Al-Baqarah — The Cow) begins
There is a particular kind of silence that comes after certainty. Not the silence of doubt — but the silence that asks: Now that you know… what will you do with it?
Surah البقرة (al-Baqarah) leaves you with something vast. A structure of belief. A framework for living. A map that is both complete and demand...

Bismillah
The Qur’an shows that the story of humanity is the story of covenants. Before time and history, Allah gathered every soul and asked: 'Am I not your Lord?' and we all replied: 'Yes, we bear witness' (7:172). That first covenant is written into our nature. Whether we remember it or not, we are bound to it.
From there, covenants continued through prophets and nations. Allah entrusted Banī Isrā’īl with pledge after pledge: 'Hold firmly ...
I have been thinking about this for a while, and I finally decided to write a reflection about it.
I am majoring in psychology with the hopes of becoming a counsellor one day, insha'Allah. Some time ago, I came across a novel that related quite well to my studies called, 'The Body Keeps the Score', by Dr. Bessel van der Kolk.
The book itself was fascinating. It covered many topics that I had learned, but it was also heartbreaking. There were ...
I've been thinking about the concept of akhlaq—good character—and how essential it is in our lives.
It’s clear to me that akhlaq isn’t just one virtue among many; it’s the very foundation that should guide every action we take. It acts like an umbrella, shaping the way we behave and interact with others in all aspects of life.
Performing great deeds, whether they are acts of worship or contributions to society, isn’t enough on its own. If t...
Chosenness of Allah is conditional on Being a good servant of Allah, not based on Ethnicity. Also It is a warning for the new ummah who also took a new covanent with Allah i.e. Muslims that They should not follow evil deads of pervious believers. But sadly we are following their path and not the path Allah has chosen for us. May Allah keep us in Sirat al-Mustaqim
The Weight of Gentle Speech Reading Al-Baqarah (2:83–84) through the Hadith
In the middle of a covenant about worship, prayer, and charity, the Qur’an says: ﴿وَقُولُوا لِلنَّاسِ حُسْنًا﴾ “And speak kindly to people.” - (2:83)
The verse appears among commands given to Bani Israil: to worship Allah alone, honor parents, care for relatives, orphans, and the needy, establish prayer, and give zakah. Classical tafsir relates these ayahs to that ...
