Preface to English Edition

نَحْمُدُهُ وَ نُصَلِّيْ عَلٰى رَسُوْلِهِ الْكَرِيْمِ

.

We praise Allah, and may peace and blessings be upon His noble messenger Mohammed Sallallahu alaihi wa Sallam. The messenger of Allah (PBUH) said: خَيْرُكُمْ مَّنْ تَعَلَّمَ الْقُرْآنَ وَعَلَّمَهٗ meaning The best amongst you are those who learn the Qur’an and teach it.

The English translation of the classic book Qur’an Darsi Tafseer, Juz 30, Para Amma, is presented here, authored by Maulana Naseem Ahmed Ghazi Muzahiri and Mufti Rashid Mahmood Raja. Mufti Rashid desired that this is a good time for this book to be brought to the electronic media in English and make it available internationally. Therefore, he requested me to take on the task of translating, updating, and publishing.

I decided to do this work in several steps. The first was to divide the Juz 30 into four sections. Part 1 from Surah An-Naba’ to Al-Infitaar, part 2 from Surah Al-Mutaffifin to Surah Al-Ghashiyah, Part 3 from Surah al-Fajr to Surah al-Qadr and part 4 from Surah Al-Bayyinah to Surah An-Nas.

Secondly, I decided to publish the translation of grammar only to reduce the size of the book and also for those who are only interested in the grammatical aspects of this Juz.

Thirdly, I planned to publish part 1 without the Tafseer and later include the Tafseer depending upon the interest from the feedback if I get any. Then, depending on this book's demand, I would publish the remaining volumes with and without the Tafseer portion.

I have worked with Mufti Rashid and have benefited much related to Arabic Grammar and Tafseer of the Qur’an. His knowledge and depth of Arabic grammar and background in the Holy Qur’an are impressive. May Allah reward both the Author and him immensely.

This book is the first of the four volumes I have extracted from it, and it covers Surah An-Naba’ through Surah Al-Infitar. I have further edited and added some material for completeness as I thought appropriate. Therefore, I humbly request the readers to provide any input they may have regarding recommendations, suggestions, comments, usefulness, and any thoughts. Email and phone numbers for WhatsApp are on the book's second page. I would be honored to hear from you.

May Allah Subhanahu wa Ta’ala accept this humble effort and provide a means for maghfirah in the hereafter.

Mufti Rashid Mahmood Preface

Translated From Urdu

The Qur'an is a miraculous and glorious undeniable book. Its comprehensive nature can only be understood by its subjects, symbolic and hidden secrets, eloquence and clarity of the message, and other endless features. Many scholars of the Quran have studied and interpreted it per their level of understanding in their time period. Yet, despite these efforts, its wonders never seem to end. After seeing these features, the practical implementation of the saying of the Prophet, peace be upon him لَا تَنۡقَضِیۡ عَجَائِبُهُ comes to mind.

The science of interpretation of the Quran's knowledge is the most important and highly regarded part of the curriculum taught in our Islamic Schools. Our seminaries have been teaching the science of Quranic interpretation for centuries. In the curriculum of Darse Nizami, understanding the entire Qur'an is taught so that the complete Holy Quran is committed to the students' memory with translation. In this regard, secondary school male and female students are given relatively detailed lessons on the Juz 30 Para Amma. The students are taught morphology, the practice of syntax rules, vocabulary solutions, construction, revelation background, the connection between Surahs and verses, and other discussions in detail. They are taught to commit them to their memory. Plenty of material is available for training in this way. Still, it is not available in a compiled manner in one place. It is, therefore, necessary to turn to Quranic interpretations separately. It will be an unexpected blessing if the discussion combining all of the above is found in a book.

Presented here is the Interpretation of the Quran part 30 by Maulana Nasim Ahmad Ghazi Muzahiri, which like other different styles and methodologies of other interpreters (Unitarianism, prophethood, tasawwuf and journey of the spiritual path, manners, and morals, philosophy, and logic) has its style and methodology in which:

The book has been in print in Pakistan for a long time, showing demand. Therefore, a need was felt that this book is printed and presented in the English language in eBook and paperback formats in an attractive manner. With Allah’s help, the initial need for the Urdu version was well-addressed by the Maktabal Hadi, Shah Faisal Town, Karachi. The need for the word-to-word translation has been accomplished is precisely what was needed. Therefore, we have tried to follow suit, present it in English, and ask Allah SWT to make it of good use by students of English background.

It is hoped that this translation and interpretation will benefit the students and teachers alike, Insha-Allah. And they will not need to refer to any other book concerning essential matters. Looking at the book's contents, it is likely that the author has also gone to extra lengths in some places for this very reason. This is why some subjects have a lengthy discussion and, in some cases, may have been taken above the level of the beginner student. The book does not miss any detail in the subject matter. To benefit from this book, the students need to concentrate and memorize the meanings of the words and pay attention to the sentence construction and possible implications. Supposing the students go through this Juz in this manner, in-shaa-Allah, they will become familiar with the style and presentation of the Qur’an, which is the purpose of this effort.
