Brief Explanation
Benefits: … The ranks of the believers are different; some are very quick to obey and hasten towards goodness and virtue, while in some others the desire for this is less. The statement of Allah, the Exalted, is: {ثُمَّاَوْرَثْنَاالْکِتَابَالَّذِیْنَاصْطَفَیْنَامِنْعِبَادِنَافَمِنْھُمْظَالِمٌلِّنَفْسِہٖوَمِنْھُمْمُّقْتَصِدٌوَّمِنْھُمْسَابِقٌبِالْخَیْرَاتِبِاِذْنِاللّٰہِ} … Then We caused those whom We chose from among Our servants to inherit the Book; but of them are some who wrong themselves, and of them are some who are moderate, and of them are some who, by Allah’s permission, race ahead in good deeds. (Surah Fatir: 32)
