33:9. O you who believe!
Remember Allah’s favour to you when there came against you armies against whom
We sent a strong wind and armies that you saw not.2 And Allah does
ever see what you do.
2. This Verse and the Verses following
refer to one of the many armed confrontations the nascent Islamic State at
Medina had to face the disbelievers of Makkah. Over 10 thousand Makkans
and their allies had marched to Medina to finish the Muslims once for all. It
took the vast army by surprise that the Medinians had dug a defensive trench
which they could not cross. And during the month-long siege in the open outside
this trench, the Makkan army had to face a strong wind that blew viciously
against them and their things, forcing them ultimately to raise the siege and
return home with a heavy loss of men and material. But the besieged believers
too had to face many hardships, trials, and tribulations, which the Verses
following reflect.

24:58. O you who believe! Let those whom
your right hands possess (slaves/servants) and those of you who have not
attained puberty ask permission of you three times: before the Morning Prayer,
whenever you take off your clothes (for rest) at noon, and after the Evening
Prayer. These are three times of privacy for you. No restriction on you or them
at other times. Some of you have to be around others. Thus, does Allah make
clear to you the Verses, and Allah is Knowledgeable, Wise.

24:27. O you who believe! Do not enter
houses other than yours until you have asked permission and greeted their
inmates. It is good for you that way to remain mindful of good conduct.
