The Moon Split Paperback
Before you is the commentary of Sūrah Qamar. While one of the themes of this sūrah is about the historical event of the splitting of the moon by the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam, it also urges us to reflect on our current state. Many people today are similar in that they do not take heed of the great miracles of creation, such as the sky, sun, and moon, despite it being clear that this is intelligent design, and the universe could not have come together by itself. It is a cause for concern that atheism and disbelief today are so widespread in our society.
If one reads the sūrah while reflecting on its meaning, one can hope that the light of īmān will be rekindled, and then a concerted effort can be made to mend our ways before it is too late. The primary reason Allāh subhanahu wa ta’ala mentions the incidents of previous nations and their punishment is for us to take heed and not follow the same path in their carelessness and rejection. Allāh subhanahu wa ta’ala has eloquently explained the situation of the past nations in this sūrah.
