| Allah Is As-shakur - "The Most Appreciative" by Lukgaf(op): 7:03am On Feb 21, 2025 |
This week, let's reflect on one of the beautiful names of Allah - "As-shakur" and in order to understand and appreciate the meaning, let's imagine a scenario: You visit your rich Uncle who just returned back from abroad after some years, and after spending time with him, he hands you a ₦5 note when you're about going home. How would you feel? Most people would likely be insulted, feel disrespected, or even get angry, thinking, "Does this person think so little of me?. He's a miser!" Some might even mock the giver after he leaves. To Allah belongs the highest example... Unlike humans, Allah never belittles any good deed. He appreciates even the smallest act of goodness and rewards it far beyond what it deserves. This is why He is As-Shakūr, The Most Appreciative. Allah says in the Qur’an: "If you loan Allah a goodly loan, He will multiply it for you and forgive you. And Allah is [most] Appreciative and Forbearing." (Surah At-Taghabun, 64:17) Think about it—Allah, the King of kings, the Owner of the heavens and the earth, calls our deeds a ‘loan’ to Him! SubhanAllah ! Even though He is in need of nothing, He appreciates every act of worship, every charity given, every prayer made. Pray two rak’ahs? Allah appreciates it and may forgive a lifetime of sins. Smile at your brother? It is counted as an act of charity. Give a small amount in charity? Allah may multiply it beyond imagination. I think this is a lesson for us: let's learn to appreciate one another. If Allah, our Creator, is appreciative of His servants, then what about us? Shouldn't we be even more appreciative of one another? Children should appreciate their parents – for their love, sacrifice, and sleepless nights. Students should appreciate their teachers for impacting knowledge to them. Friends should appreciate friends – for their loyalty, kindness, and presence in times of need. Spouses should appreciate each other – a small ‘thank you’ can strengthen love and harmony in a home. Leaders should appreciate their citizens – by governing with mercy and justice, remembering those who put them in power. Many relationships break not because of lack of love, but because of lack of appreciation. A simple "thank you" could make a huge difference in someone’s life. Ya Allah, You are As-Shakūr, The Most Appreciative. Make us among those who appreciate You and appreciate others. Do not let our hearts be ungrateful, and bless us with sincerity in our words and actions. Ameen.

An-Nisa' 4:147 مَّا يَفۡعَلُ ٱللَّهُ بِعَذَابِكُمۡ إِن شَكَرۡتُمۡ وَءَامَنتُمۡۚ وَكَانَ ٱللَّهُ شَاكِرًا عَلِيمࣰا Why should Allah punish you if you have thanked (Him) and have believed in Him. And Allah is Ever All-Appreciative (of good), All-Knowing. May Allah make us among those are grateful to Him. Aameen |

AntilsIam:Here you go . . . . 2Ch 18:22 Now therefore behold, the LORD has put a lying spirit in the mouth of these your prophets; the LORD has spoken evil concerning you." Jeremiah 4:10 Then said I, Ah, Lord GOD! surely thou hast greatly deceived this people and Jerusalem, saying, Ye shall have peace; whereas the sword reacheth unto the soul. Jeremiah 20:7 O LORD, thou hast deceived me, and I was deceived: thou art stronger than I, and hast prevailed: I am in derision daily, every one mocketh me. Ezekiel 14:9 And if the prophet be deceived when he hath spoken a thing, I the LORD have deceived that prophet, and I will stretch out my hand upon him, and will destroy him from the midst of my people Israel. 2 Thessalonians 2:11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie |

AntilsIam:1. Yes, some of them are, go and read the full chapter of the first quote. Also the Ezekiel quote. 2. Does it matter? Is all scripture no longer inspired by God? And was the Quoran not also dictated by a man who claimed to be hearing from God? |

AntilsIam:Thousands of your type have tried to give wrong interpretations to some of the verses of the holy Quran but to no avail. You will get your reward as at when due in appropriate proportion. Below is the true interpretation of Quran 3:54 May Allah continue to guiding us aright.

gaskiyamagana:Read Quran 3:54 yourself and ask yourself who is misguided between me and you. In that verse, your allah claimed to be the best of deceivers. Your allah is a self acclaimed deceiver. Go and read instead of allowing an Arab pagan idol to deceive u |
