In this lesson of Sūrah Hud (verses 29 to 35), Shaykh Dr. Aḥsan Ḥanīf explores the dialogue between Prophet Nūḥ (Noah) and his people. The Prophet clarifies that he seeks no worldly gain from them, and his reward is solely from Allāh. He emphasizes his role as a warner without claiming knowledge of the unseen or divine provision. Despite his sincere advice, the people reject him and challenge him to bring the promised punishment if he is truthful. The Prophet reminds them that Allāh alone controls the outcome and warns that human rejection will not affect divine decree. The verses also address accusations that the Prophet fabricated the revelation, highlighting his innocence of such claims and the accountability of those who reject the truth.

In this lesson on Sūrah Hūd (verses 18 to 28), Shaykh Dr Aḥsan Ḥanīf explores the severe consequences faced by those who fabricate lies about Allāh and lead others astray. The verses contrast these individuals, deaf and blind to guidance, with those who believe, act righteously, and humble themselves before their Lord who are promised eternal Paradise. The lesson also introduces the story of Prophet Nūḥ (Noah, peace be upon him), highlighting his clear warning to his people and their arrogant rejection. Through these examples, the verses emphasise the themes of divine justice, the accountability of leaders and followers, and the role of prophets in guiding mankind despite rejection and ridicule.

In this lesson of Sūrah Hūd verses 13 to 17, Shaykh Dr. Aḥsan Ḥanīf explores the Qur’ān’s unmatched challenge to produce even ten surahs like it, affirming its divine origin. The verses contrast those who pursue worldly gains with those who follow clear divine guidance, supported by the testimony of previous scriptures like the Torah. The lesson also highlights the ultimate failure of disbelievers and reassures the Prophet ﷺ of the truth of his message despite widespread denial.
