A Reminder from Qur'an [84: 13-25]

[mur009]

‎"Indeed, he had [once] been among his people in happiness; Indeed, he had thought he would never return [to Allaah ]. But yes! Indeed, his Lord was ever of him, Seeing. So I swear by the twilight glow. And [by] the night and what it envelops. And [by] the moon when it becomes full. [That] you will surely experience state after state. So what is [the matter] with them [that] they do not believe, And when the Qur'an is recited to them, they do not prostrate [to Allaah ]? But those who have disbelieved deny, And Allaah is most knowing of what they keep within themselves. So give them tidings of a painful punishment, Except for those who believe and do righteous deeds. For them is a reward uninterrupted."

(Surah Al-Inshiqaq, Ayahs: 13-25)

 

[K-A-K]

When it says "State after State", does it mean health, spirituality, happiness, etc? I mean everything?
If it does, then SubhanAllah, the life that we live here is entirely about different states of being.

Salam.

Yes you are right there. Masha Allah. May you become more knowledgeable and lead others, in deen and duniya ...Ameen.

Tafseer Ibn Katheer:

Narrated By Ibn Abbas: (As regards the Verse): 'You shall surely travel from stage to stage(in this life and in the Hereafter).' (It means) from one state to another. That concerns your Prophet.
[Prophetic Commentary On The Qur'an - Vol 6; Book 60; Hadith464 --Bukhari]

Al-Bukhari recorded this statement with this wording. Ikrimah said,(From stage to stage) "Stage after stage. Weaned after he was breast feeding, and an old man after he was a young man.''

Al-Hasan Al-Basri said, (From stage to stage)
"Stage after stage.
- Ease after difficulty,
- difficulty after ease,
- wealth after poverty,
- poverty after wealth,
- health after sickness, and
- sickness after health."
