فذرهم حتى يلاقوا يومهم الذي فيه يصعقون

فَذَرْهُمْ حَتَّىٰ يُلَـٰقُوا۟ يَوْمَهُمُ ٱلَّذِى فِيهِ يُصْعَقُونَ

In the Name of Allah the Most Merciful, the Especially Merciful,

The one, when the death of a loved one occurs he doesn’t not ponder over it; 

When the skies bring down rain, he does not think who has sent it? 

When the day turns into night and the night turns into day, he does not think Who is it that causes this?

When he eats, he does not ponder how his sustenance and food has come onto his plate?

When his wife gives birth he does not think who caused the foetus to turn into his child? 

He does not think where he is going? And he does not think what will become of him?

When injustice is committed he does not think that one day for all injustices there will be justice. So he continues to side with those who commit injustice. 

He does not see. He is blind.

~ 

When he sees his loved one die, he knows that his time will come soon. He is optimistic for an everlasting reunion; 

When the skies bring down rain, he knows it has come from the Most Gracious and he thanks Allah for His Mercy;

When the sky turns into night and the clouds turn into day, he thanks Allah for another chance to set his heart right;

When he eats, he smiles because he knows every sustenance is sent from Allah and was written exclusively for him; 

When his wife gives birth, he is in awe of her once small belly that had to swell. Allah bestowed upon him his child. Thus he recognises that Allah is Al Khaliq and the Fashioner. He is in awe and knows his child is a temporary trust upon him to raise him right;

Every night he thinks about where is his destination, and where he is going? He knows he is to meet his Lord very soon, for the days pass by so fast;

When there is injustice, he speaks up for the truth for he knows that Allah does not miss anything and He can very much see everyone including him. He knows that his Lord is All Knowing and He is Aware of every leaf which falls and every thought which manifests in the heart.

This man is in awe of Allah before even seeing him, his Lord is his everything. He loves him deeply and he fears him. He continuously praises Him and thanks Him. 

Are the two alike? We see clearly with faith in our heart. 

If we are able to ‘see’ we must give thanks to Allah and it is paradise in one’s heart to be in awe of Him without seeing Him.

It is paradise to be pleased with Him despite whatever befalls him.
