Darul Qasim Sunday Tafseer

Surah Al-Rum (30:21-27). Diversity in creation must lead the seeker to One Creator. In this lecture: mutual compassion makes a couple from individuals; diversity in creation as proof of Allah’s existence; tauheed as a monolithic creed and the sunnah as a monolithic way of life for a diverse humanity; an uncompromising yet inclusive lifestyle; universal acknowledgement of Arabic as central to worship, and the petty confusion of ranks with roles; sleep as a ni’mah, a means of detaching from yourself; lightning as a sign for the dual sensations of fear and hope; submission as a cosmic order; Allah (S), the Sovereign Creator.
