Narrated Sahl bin Sa`d: I saw Allah's Messenger pointing with his index and middle fingers, saying. "The time of my Advent and the Hour are like these two fingers." The Great Catastrophe will overwhelm everything.

«عبس‏» frowned. «تولى» turned his face away. Others said «مطهرة‏» in another place He said «لا يمسها إلا المطهرون» only those touch it who are pure, meaning the angels, so the attribute of the carried was made the attribute of the carrier, just as «فالمدبرات أمرا‏» , by «فالمدبرات» is meant the riders (who are carried), «مجازا» their carriers, that is, the horses, are called «مدبرات» . «والصحف مطهرة» here originally «تطهير» is the attribute of the books, but their carriers, that is, the angels, are also called «مطهر» . «سفرة‏» angels, this is the plural of «سافر» , the Arabs say «سفرت بين القوم» , meaning he reconciled among the people of the tribe; the angels who bring Allah’s revelation to the prophets are also called «سفير» , the one who brings people together. Some said «سفرة‏» means writers, and others said «تصدى‏» means to be heedless. Mujahid said «لما يقض‏ ما امره» means that a person did not fully perform what he was commanded, and Ibn Abbas, may Allah be pleased with them both, said «ترهقها‏ قترة» means that hardship will befall him. «مسفرة‏» means shining. Ibn Abbas, may Allah be pleased with them both, said «سفرة‏» means writers; in Surah al-Jumu‘ah, the word «أسفارا‏» is from the same root, meaning books. «تلهى‏» means to be heedless, they say «الأسفار» , which is in the meaning of books. «سفر‏.‏» is the plural with kasrah on the letter seen.

Narrated Aisha: The Prophet said, "Such a person as recites the Qur'an and masters it by heart, will be with the noble righteous scribes (in Heaven). And such a person exerts himself to learn the Qur'an by heart, and recites it with great difficulty, will have a double reward."

Imam Hasan al-Basri said the meaning of «سجرت‏» is that the seas will dry up, not a single drop of water will remain in them. Mujahid said the meaning of «مسجور» (which is in Surah at-Tur) is "full," and others said the meaning of «سجرت‏» is that the seas will burst forth and merge together to become one sea. «خنس» means "at the place of walking, then returning." «كنس» is derived from «تكنس» , meaning "they hide like deer." «تنفس‏» means "when the day rises." «ظنين» (with ظاء mu'jamah, this is also a recitation) means "he accuses," and «ضنين» means "he is not stingy in conveying Allah's message." And 'Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said «النفوس زوجت‏» means "every person will be joined together, whether he is of Paradise or of Hell," then he recited this verse «احشروا الذين ظلموا وأزواجهم‏» . «عسعس‏» means "when the night turns its back" or "when the darkness of night falls."

Rabi' bin Khuthaym said the meaning of «فجرت» is "they gushed forth." Al-A'mash and 'Asim recited «فعدلك» with lightness (takhfif). The people of Hijaz recited «فعدلك» with a shaddah (emphasis) on the dal. When recited with shaddah, the meaning will be that He created with a great and appropriate form and in moderation; and if recited with takhfif, the meaning will be: in whatever form He wished, He made you—handsome or ugly, tall or short, of small stature.

And Mujahid said that the meaning of «بل ران‏» is that sin has settled upon their hearts. «ثوب‏» means they were recompensed. Others said «مطفف» is the one who does not give full measure (acts deceitfully).

Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) said that «يوعون» means they conceal.

Narrated Aisha: I heard the Prophet saying... "He surely will receive an easy reckoning." 84.8 Narrated Aisha: Allah's Messenger said," (On the Day of Resurrection) any one whose account will be taken will be ruined (i.e. go to Hell)." I said, "O Allah's Messenger! May Allah make me be sacrificed for you. Doesn't Allah say: "Then as for him who will be given his record in his right hand, he surely will receive an easy reckoning.?" (84.7-8) He replied, "That is only the presentation of the accounts; but he whose record is questioned, will be ruined."

Sulaiman bin Harb narrated to us, he said: Hammad bin Zaid narrated to us, from Ayyub, from Ibn Abi Mulaykah, and from Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her), she heard from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him).
