Surah Al-Hashr (The Mustering)

This Surah was revealed in Madinah, and it has 24 verses and 3 sections

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

The Merits of the Ansar (The Helpers)

"...And do not feel in their hearts any need for what is given to the former ones..." 59:9

COMMENTARY: The third characteristic of the Helpers is described in "...and do not feel in their hearts any need for what is given to the former ones [from fai'], ...[59:9]". This statement is concerned with the banishment of Banu Nadhir and their orchards and homes falling into Muslim hands.

Distribution of Banu Nadhir's Properties

As stated earlier, the relevant verse has given discretionary powers to the Holy Prophet (Sallallahu Alayhi Wa Sallam) in matters of distributing the Fai' property. It was a time when the Muhajirun (Emigrants) had neither homes of their own nor any property. They lived in the homes of the Ansar, and worked on their farms to earn their livelihood. When the wealth of Banu Nadhir and Banu Qainuqa' were obtained as Fai', the Messenger of Allah (Sallallahu Alayhi Wa Sallam) called the leader of the Ansar, Sayyidna Thabit Ibn Qais Ibn Shammas, and asked him to bring his people to him. He asked: "O Messenger of Allah, should I call my tribe of the Ansar, Banu Khazraj, or all of the tribes of the Ansar?" He replied: "All of them." They all gathered. The Messenger of Allah (Sallallahu Alayhi Wa Sallam) delivered a sermon in which he spoke highly of the Ansar as to the manner in which they accommodated the Refugee brethren. He said it was a work of great determination and courage. After that he said: 'Allah has granted you the wealth of Banu Nadhir. If you wish, I will divide the wealth between the Muhajirin and the Ansar; and the Refugees will remain as usual in the homes of the Ansar. Or if you wish, the wealth may be distributed among the homeless Refugees; and they may move out of your homes and settle in their own homes.'

THE SMILE

When my printer's type began to grow faint, I called a local repair shop where a friendly man informed me that the printer probably needed only to be cleaned. Because the store charged $50 for such cleanings, he told me, I might be better off reading the printer's manual and trying the job myself. Pleasantly surprised by his candor, I asked, "Does your boss know that you discourage business?"

"Actually it's my boss's idea," the employee replied sheepishly. "We usually make more money on repairs if we let people try to fix things themselves first."
