The universality of the Prophet's Message, how He was supported in His Mission and Allah's Blessings to Mankind
Allah says:
وَلَوْ شِئْنَا لَبَعَثْنَا فِى كُلِّ قَرْيَةٍ نَّذِيراً
Reflection — Maarif ul Quran
Jihad with Qur'an (its propagation) is great Jihad
وَجَاهِدْهُم بِهِ جِهَادًا كَبِيرًا (And strive against them with it (the Qur'an) a great striving - 25:52). This is a Makkan verse when the injunction for Jihad, in the sense of fighting the infidels, had not been revealed. What is ordained in this verse is that you spread the message of Qur'an among the people at large. Propagation of Qur'anic message among people and to make them understand it is great Jihad whether it is by mouth, pen or any other means,
What does this verse bring up for you today?
