O Muslims - 45

 

In the Name of Allah, the Gracious, the Merciful


Extracted from QUR’AANIC STUDIES – A Modern Tafsir PART I:

23. Ya ayyuha allatheena amanoo la tattakhithoo abaakum wa-ikhwanakum awliyaa ini istahabboo alkufra AAala al-eemani waman yatawallahum minkum faola-ika humu alththalimoona


9:23. O you who believe! Do not take your fathers and your brothers as awliya7 if they love suppression of the Truth more than faith in the Truth. And those of you who take them as awliya, those it is that do wrong.


7. Refer to my blog post, Awliya, for a comprehensive Qur’aanic meaning of the Arabic term.


Mohammad Shafi
