REPUBLIKA.CO.ID, JAKARTA -- Each letter in the Quran has its own wisdom and idiosyncrasies, one of which is Surat Al Mulk.
This is the 67th chapter (surah) of the Quran, comprising 30 verses. The surah emphasizes that no individual can impose his will on another; he may only guide and set an example.
What is the wisdom of this letter for the soul?
As reported in About Islam, Thursday (16/11/2023), a physician practicing medicine in the United States who also has more than 10 years of experience organizing the Islamic community and founder of SALIM Life LLC, Hana Alasry, lays out wisdoms of Surat Al Mulk for the soul. Here's the elaboration.
1. Surah Al-Mulk is an ally for the faithful
The generosity of Surah Al-Mulk above makes us wonder, if the Quran will act as an ally to defend us in our most vulnerable moments, would we treat it like an ally? Or do we use the excuse many young people use by saying, “I'm busy. I will discuss it later. I will find time.
Surat Al-Mulk even before a Muslim begins to read it is to treat the Quran like a friend. Spend time with him and listen to that over and over again.
One of the most powerful reflections he ever heard about the Quran was because the Quran was a revelation from God. So the Quran can be said to be 'life'.
The Quran speaks to believers in a way that Allah permits. Surah Al-Mulk was no exception, so he stressed for a Muslim to be friends with him and let him speak to the hearts of the faithful.
