Explanation of soorah An-Nasr

The verses:
In the name of Allaah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful.
Almighty Allaah Says (what means): "When the victory of Allaah has
come and the conquest [of Makkah]. And you see the people entering
into the religion of Allaah in multitudes. Then exalt [Him] with
praise of your Lord and ask forgiveness of Him. Indeed, He is ever
Accepting of repentance." [Quran: 110:1-4]
Explanation:
Imaam At-Tirmithi related from Anas Ibn Maalik that theMessenger once
asked a man:"Are you married?" He replied:"No, I swear by Allaah, O
Messenger of Allaah! For I have nothing, so how can I marry?" He asked
the man: "Do you not have: "Say: `He is Allaah, the One."'[i.e.,
Soorah Al-Ikhlaas]?" The man replied: "Certainly!" He said: "It is
(equivalent to) onethird of the Quran." Then he asked: "Do you not
have: "When the victory of Allaah has come and the conquest [of
Makkah]" [i.e., Soorah An-Nasr]?" The man replied: "Certainly!" The
Prophet then said: "It is (equivalent to) one quarter of the Quran."
`Ubaydullaah Ibn `Abdullaah Ibn `Utbah narrated that Ibn `Abbaas said
to him: "Do you know which Soorah (chapter) was the last to be
revealed from the Quran?" I replied: "Yes, and it was (what means):
"When the victory of Allaah has come and the conquest [of Makkah].""
He said: "You are right."
Abu Bakr Al-Bazzaar and Al-Bayhaqi both narrated from Ibn `Umar that
he said:"This Soorah was revealed to the Messenger of Allaah during
the days of Tashreeq (i.e., the 11th, 12 th and 13th of Thu'l-Hijjah)
and he knew that it was his farewell address. He called for his
riding-camel, and when he had travelled some way on it, he stood and
addressedthe people with his famous farewell speech. According to
Imaam Al-Bayhaqi Ibn `Abbaas said: "This Soorah was revealed,
following which the Messenger of Allaah summoned his daughter Faatimah
and said to her: " Itheralds my death." At this, Faatimah began to
cry; but she laughed when he said:"Have Patience, for you are the
first of my family who will join me." [Muslim]
Imaam At-Tabaraani related on the authority of Ibn `Abbaas that he
said: "When the Soorah: "When the victory of Allaah has come and the
conquest [of Makkah]." was revealed, it heralded to Allaah's Messenger
that his death wasnear, and so he intensified hispreparations for the
Hereafter (byincreasing his prayers, fasting, supplicating etc.);
after embarking upon this, he said:" The conquest and the help of
Allaah have come, and the peopleof Yemen have come." A man asked: "O
Messenger of Allaah! Who are the people of Yemen ?" He replied: "A
people who are gentle-hearted and moderate in their ways: faith is in
Yemen ; fiqh(understanding of Islam) is in Yemen ." [Al-Bukhaari]
It has been confirmed from Ibn `Abbaas that the Messenger of Allaah
said on the day of the conquest of Makkah: "There isno Hijrah (i.e.
emigration) after the conquest, but there is Jihaad and Niyyah (pure
intention) and ifyou are called upon, then respond to the call."
[Al-Bukhaari& Muslim]
Masrooq said: "I heard `Aa'ishah saying that the Messenger of Allaah
would repeat: " Glorified be Allaah and all praise be to Him, I ask
Allaah's forgiveness and I turn to Him in repentance." He
continued:"Indeed, my Lord has informed me that I will see a sign
amongstmy people, and He ordered me, if I do see it, to glorify His
praises and ask His forgiveness, and I have seen it, (it is): 'When
the victory of Allaah has come and the conquest [of Makkah]. And you
see the people entering into the religion of Allaah in multitudes.
Then exalt [Him] withpraise of your Lord and ask forgiveness of Him.
Indeed, He is ever Accepting of repentance.'"" [Muslim]
Umm Salamah said:"Towards the end of his life, the Messenger of Allaah
would not stand, nor sit, nor depart, norarrive, without saying: "Most
Glorified is Allaah and all praise is due to Him." So I said to him:
"O Messenger of Allaah! I have observed you frequently glorifying
Allaah and praising Him." He said: "I was ordered to do it." Then he
said: "When the victory of Allaah has come and the conquest [of
Makkah]..." (to the end of the Soorah)." What is meant by 'the
conquest' is the conquest of Makkah. The people of Arabia were slow in
answeringthe call to Islam until the fall of Makkah, then they entered
the Religion of Allaah in crowds and within two years, the whole of
Arabia became unified in faith and all the tribes of Arabia embraced
Islam.
Imaam Al-Bukhaari reported that when Makkah was conquered, delegations
from all the tribes of Arabia came to the Messenger of Allaah to
declare their allegiance to Islam, while prior to it, they were slow
to embrace Islam.
Imam Ahmad narrated on the authority of the neighbour of Jaabir Ibn
`Abdullaah may Allaah be pleased him that he (i.e., the neighbour)
said: "I once returnedfrom a journey and Jaabir Ibn `Abdullaah came to
me and greeted me. I began to talk with him about the disunity of the
people and their innovations (in religion). Jaabir then began to
cryand said: "I heard Allaah's Messenger say: "Indeed, the people
entered the Religion of Allaah in crowds and they will abandon it in
crowds." - - ▓███▓ Translator:-> http://translate.google.com/m/
