Surah Al-Jumu'ah (The Friday) 62

This Surah was revealed in Madinah, and it has 11 verses and 2 sections

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

...to recite His verses to them... 62:2

COMMENTARY: The word Tilawah lexically signifies 'to follow, to obey' but in the terminology of the Qur'an, it signifies 'recitation or reading ofthe Divine Words'. The word 'Aaayat' refers to the verses of the Qur'an. The prepositional phrase 'Alayhim' [to them] signifies that one of the objectives or duties of the Prophet Sallallahu Alayhi Wa Sallam is to recite the verses of the Qur'an to the people.

In the current verse, the second objective of the Holy Prophet Sallallahu Alayhi Wa Sallam is to (make them pure) which is derived from Tazkiyah and it means 'to make pure'. Often it is used exclusively for inner cleanliness, that is, to be free from such inner adulterating matter as kufr, shirk and free from inner moral defilement. But occasionally, it is used in the general sense of both outer and inner cleanliness. Probably, in this context it is used in the general sense ofthe term.

SMOKEY DINNER CALL

My cooking has always been the target of family jokes. One evening, as I prepared dinner a bit too quickly, the kitchen filled with smoke and the smoke detector went off. Although both of my children had received fire-safety training at school, they did not respond to the alarm. Annoyed, I stormed through the house in search of them. I found them in the bathroom, washing their hands.

Over the loud buzzing of the smoke alarm, I asked them to identify the sound.

"It’s the smoke detector," they replied in unison.

"Do you know what that sound means?" I demanded.

"Sure," my oldest replied. "Dinner’s ready."
