Mujâdalah begins this Juz. Allâh states that it
is foolish for any person to refer to his wife as his mother (as a method of
separating from her). If a man does this, it will be Harâm for him to
cohabit with his wife until he pays the required Kafâra. The Kafâra
is that he frees a slave (male or female), fasts for two consecutive months
or feeds sixty poor people.

Thereafter, Allâh teaches the etiquette of gatherings
and warns people against hosting secret meetings to plot against Rasulullâh
Sallallâhu ‘alayhi wasallam or to commit other sins. Allâh
says that such meetings are among the acts of Shaytân.

In Sûrah Hashar thereafter, Allâh states that the
true Mu’minîn are those people who assist the Muslims who migrate
for Allâh and Rasulullâh Sallallâhu ‘alayhi wasallam.
They are people who do not close their hearts despite living in difficult circumstances.
Rather, they give preference to others above themselves. The Munâfiqîn
are completely different because they display the traits of Shaytân. They
encourage people to commit evil acts and then excuse themselves saying that
they have nothing to do with these people. Allâh urges people to heed
the advice of the Qur’ân, which is so mighty that it can crush mountains
under its weight.

Sûrah Mumtahina begins after Sûrah Hashar. Allâh
tells the Mu’minîn in this Sûrah that they should terminate
all secretive contact with the Kuffâr after migrating to Madinah. The
Kuffâr are enemies to the Muslims and will never be their allies. A Muslim
can never trust a kâfir because the ambition of the kâfir is to
convert the Muslim into a kâfir like himself/ herself. Allâh also
states that the faith of a woman should be tested when she migrates to the Muslims.
She must be allowed to remain among the Muslims if she is found to be sincere.

Addressing the Mu’minîn in Sûrah Saff, Allâh
admonishes them for claiming to do things that they have not done. This is an
extremely serious crime in Allâh’s sight. Allâh loves those
Mu’minîn who stand together like a fortified wall when facing the
enemy in Jihâd. Allâh then quotes Hadhrat Îsa who prophesised
the advent of Rasulullâh to the Bani Isrâ’îl, referring
to Rasulullâh Sallallâhu ‘alayhi wasallam as “Ahmed”.
Allâh ends the Sûrah by assuring the Mu’minîn that the
Kuffâr will never be able to extinguish Allâh’s light and
that Allâh will definitely grant them victory over their enemies.

In Sûrah Jumu’ah, Allâh explicitly states,
“0 you who believe! When you are called for Salâh on the day of
Jumu’ah (Friday), then hasten towards Allâh’s remembrance
and leave all trade. This is best for you if you only knew. Thereafter, when
the Salâh has been completed, then spread out on earth and seek from Allâh’s
bounty (sustenance) and remember Allâh in abundance so that you may succeed”
(verses 9 and 10). The concluding verse of the Sûrah states: “Allâh
is the Best Sustainer”.

Allâh addresses Rasulullâh Sallallâhu ‘alayhi
wasallam in Sûrah Munafiqûn, warning him to beware of them. Allâh
says that the words and acts of the Munâfiqîn contradict their thoughts
and feelings. They falsely take solemn oaths in Allâh’s name whereas
they are devoid of Imân.

In Sûrah Taghâbun, Allâh states that only
He created everyone. Allâh made some people Kuffâr and made others
Mu’minîn with wealth and children as tests for them. Allâh
will forgive those people who are rightly guided.

Allâh mentions in Sûrah Talâq that husbands
should divorce their wives only when the wives are not menstruating. The Iddah
should be meticulously observed and it will be regarded as an act of immorality
if a woman has to emerge from her home during the Iddah. The Iddah of a non-menstruating
divorcee is three months, while the Iddah of a pregnant divorcee will terminate
as soon as she delivers. The husband will have to maintain his pregnant wife
after the divorce until she delivers his child.

Addressing Rasulullâh Sallallâhu ‘alayhi wasallam
in Sûrah Tahrîm, Allâh tells him not to forsake Allâh’s
bounties for the sake of his ‘wives. Allâh also tells Rasulullâh
Sallallâhu ‘alayhi wasallam that he should pay the Kafâra
to be absolved from his vow. Allâh cautions that any person who wishes
to oppose Rasulullâh .b, will have to face the resistance of Allâh,
Hadhrat Jibra’îl and all the pious Muslims at large.

Highlighting the fact that Imân is a gift from Allâh
that a person does not attain by simply associating with pious people, Allâh
speaks about the wives of Hadhrat Nûh and Hadhrat Lût both of whom
died as Kuffâr. On the other hand, the wife of Fir’aun passed away
as a Mu’mina.
