Ring Structure

5. Introduction
 Probably revealed during the last stage of Prophet hood in Makah.
 “Yaseen is the heart of the Quran” (Ahmad, Abu Dawood, Nasai).
 “Reciting of Yaseen near a dying person makes the ordeal easy for
him” (Mazhari).

6. Ruku 1 (Ayah 1-12)
 Quran is full of Wisdom ---- ِ‫يم‬ ِ‫ح‬َّ‫الر‬ ِ
‫يز‬ ِ
‫ز‬َ‫ع‬ْ‫ال‬
 It is a clear proof that Prophet (SAWS) is a Messenger of Allah.
 Quran is revealed to show ٍ‫م‬ۡ‫ي‬ِ‫ق‬َ‫ت‬ۡ‫س‬ُّ‫م‬ ٍ‫اط‬ َ‫ر‬ ِ
‫ص‬ - the straight path and also to warn people.
 The psychological condition of the disbelievers;
 They have long, tight collars around their necks, so their heads are forced up.
 They have a barrier in front and behind them.
 They have a veil in front of their eyes so they cannot see.

7.  Emphasis on Resurrection – everything is recorded in a clear book;
 Deeds and actions of a person
 Impressions made on one-self and surroundings.
 Influences left for the future.

8. Ruku 2 (Ayah 13-32)
 Lessons from a story of Allah’s true servant.
 Messengers have always been ridiculed;
 You are human like us.
 Allah has revealed nothing.
 You are a liar, madman, or sorcerer.
 Messengers were equaled to misfortune, threatening them and resorting to
violent tactics.
 Support is found with honest & sincere people–a united stand for the truth.

9.  Allah’s true servant becomes a true da’ee – presenting arguments to his people.
 Confirms the validity of the Messengers, as their words & deeds are proof that
they call to the straight path.
 The Messenger's ask for no gain or reward in exchange.
 Human nature and logic demand the worship of the Only Creator.
 Everyone is to ultimately die & return to their Creator.
 Nothing can avail anyone, except the Most-Merciful.
 No ill feelings, hatred, vengeance in his heart against the people, even though
they killed him.

10. Ruku 3 (Ayah 33-50)
 There are ample signs, just turn around and look.
 Vegetation, trees and plants.
 Everything created in pairs.
 The sun and the moon and the whole universe ---- ِ‫يم‬ِ‫ل‬َ‫ع‬ْ‫ال‬ ِ‫يز‬ ِ
‫ز‬َ‫ع‬ْ‫ال‬
 The ships and the seas.

11.  It is Allah’s will that people have different means, talents and abilities.
 This ensures sustenance of a complex human society on this earth.
 Spending in the way of Allah develops kindness and compassion, softens
hearts, disassociate one from worldly desire, reminds one of Hereafter.
 The disbelievers attitude creates chaos in society, greed and selfishness.

12. Ruku 4 (Ayah 51-67
 A scene from Day of Resurrection;
 A quick, single blast will overtake everyone.
 Everything will perish in the condition it is.
 The trumpet will be blown to raise back to life again.
 Justice will be done to every soul, based on their deeds
 Believers dwell in paradise.
 Disbelievers will have their bodies submit to Allah, & they will
not be able to speak themselves.

13. Ruku 5 (Ayah 68-83)
 Old age is a second childhood, but without a child’s sweet innocence.
 Quran is no place for poetry – full of wisdom, and warning for everyone.
 Poetry expresses a human longing.
 Poetry is an expression of reactions and desires.
 Poetry changes to suit mood and desires.
 Quran is advice, cure, guidance and mercy for mankind (Surah Yunus).

14.  Recount the blessings of Allah and show gratitude – example of cattle.
 Associating with Allah; Statues, stones, trees, stars, angels or jinn, and
also one own abilities superior to Allah.
 When Allah can create a man from nothingness, He can bring back to life
from rotten and crushed bones.
 Example of fire from a “green” tree.
 Proof from science – DNA code.
 ُ‫م‬‫ي‬ِ‫ل‬َ‫ع‬ْ‫ال‬ ُ‫ق‬ َّ
‫ََّل‬‫خ‬ْ‫ال‬ --- Supreme creator

Am I sure? Yes No mostly
to some
extent
I consider the DAWA to be an obligatory responsibility.
I try to offer myself to volunteer for DAWA related activities.
I have read the Surah Yaseen’s Translation & Tafseer several times.
I try to do perpetual charity and avoid perpetual sins.
I blame Allah’s will for any of the shortcomings in my actions.
