Pearl of Wisdom
'When Asma' bint 'Umays returned from Ethiopia with her husband Ja'far b. Abi Talib, she visited the wives of the Prophet (SAWA) and asked them, 'Does the Qur'an say anything about us [women]?' They said, 'No.' So, she went to the Prophet (SAWA) and said, ?O Messenger of Allah, the women are indeed at a loss and failure!' He asked, 'Why is that?' She said, 'Because they are not mentioned with goodness like men are.' So Allah sent down this verse: Indeed for Muslim men and women, for believing men and women, for devout men and women, for true men and women, for men and women who are patient and constant, for men and women who humble themselves, for men and women who give in charity, for men and women who fast, for men and women who guard their chastity, and for men and women who engage much in Allah's remembrance, for them has Allah prepared forgiveness and great reward ?

Benefit and Corruption |
|
|
The word “benefit” (en nef) is used 50 times in the Quran with all its derivatives. The same is true for the word “corrupt” (fesad), that is, it and its derivatives are used 50 times as well. Corruption (fesad) is a social evil and condemned by the Quran. A person can not benefit (en nef) from corruption (fesad). The result of corruption is the opposite of benefit. The use of these two words with negative meanings being in equal number can not be a coincidence. This may be witnessed in the following verses: 55- And remind, for the reminder benefits the believers 51. The Dispersing, 55 26- Who corrupt the land and do not reform it. 26. The Poets, 152 | The word | Number of occurrence | | Benefit | 50 | | Corruption | 50 |
