Brief Explanation
Benefits: … In this, there is mention of the miracle of the Noble Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and it is also understood that even inanimate objects possess awareness and the ability to distinguish and recognize, as Allah the Exalted has said: {وَاِنَّمِنْھَالَمَایَھْبِطُمِنْخَشْیَۃِاللّٰہِ} … And indeed, among the stones are those that fall down for fear of Allah (Surah al-Baqarah: 74).
