"Did Not See Any Ayah More Beautiful..."


It is related that the Sahabah, may Allah be pleased with them all, were once reminding each other of the Qur’an. Abu Bakr as-Siddiq, radiyallahu ‘anhu, said, “I recited the Qur’an from its beginning to its end and I did not see any ayah more beautiful and full of hope than His Saying, exalted be He:
"Say, "Each works according to his manner, but your Lord is most knowing of who is best guided in way.""
Surah Al-Isra verse 84

For indeed, the slave is disposed towards nothing but disobedience ['isyaan]; and the Lord is disposed towards nothing but forgiveness [ghufraan].

*Narrated by Imam Al-Qurtubi in his tafsir.
