@islamiceverything786: Surah Luqman (verses 17-18), Luqman the Wise advises his son on the pillars of spiritual discipline and interpersonal ethics. He commands him to establish prayer, promote virtue, forbid vice, and bear hardships patiently. He then warns against arrogance, instructing him to remain humble in his posture and interactions with others. [1, 2] Detailed Commentary and Tafsir Ayat 17: Faith in Action and Steadfastness "O my dear son! Establish prayer, encourage what is good and forbid what is evil, and endure patiently whatever befalls you. Surely this is a resolve to aspire to." [1] Establishing Prayer: Luqman places prayer (Salah) first because it is the fundamental connection with Allah. A properly observed prayer builds the spiritual strength needed to carry out the rest of the commands. [1, 2] Enjoining Good and Forbidding Evil: This is the mark of a socially responsible believer. It requires active engagement with society to foster righteousness and prevent corruption. [1] Enduring Patiently: Standing up for the truth and correcting societal wrongs naturally invites opposition and hardship. Luqman warns his son that this requires immense courage, resilience, and patience. [1, 2] Ayat 18: The Prohibition of Arrogance "And do not turn your nose up to people, nor walk pridefully upon the earth. Surely Allah does not like whoever is arrogant, boastful." [1] "Do not turn your cheek away from people": In Arabic, this term (tusa"ir) derives from a camel disease that causes its neck to twist to one side. The metaphor here refers to a person turning their face away in disdain, treating others with contempt or haughtiness. The Quran strictly prohibits this sense of social superiority. [1, 2] "Nor walk exultantly (with pride)": The term marahan means walking with assumed airs or undue swagger. According to Tafsir Ma'arif al-Qur'an, human beings were created from the earth, so walking on it with vain pride reflects a gross misunderstanding of one's humble origins. [1] Allah's Dislike: The verse concludes by stating Allah does not love mukhtal fakhur—the arrogant boaster who takes pride in themselves and brags about their superiority over others. [1, 2] Both verses form a comprehensive code of conduct: balancing personal worship with active community responsibility, and combining moral courage with deep humility. Would you like to explore the verses that follow (Surah Luqman, Ayat 19), which discuss walking at a moderate pace and lowering the voice, or look into the preceding verses regarding the concept of shirk (polytheism)? #quran #Foryou #Viral #fyp #CapCut
