Surah At-Tin: Verse 7 - فما يكذبك بعد بالدين... - English

Then what can, after this, contradict thee, as to the judgment (to come)? (7)

فَمَا يُكَذِّبُكَ بَعْدُ بِالدِّينِ (So, what can make you, after all this, to deny the Requital?...95:7). In the preceding verses man is made to realise that Allah created him, He bestowed on him special favours and the revolution that He brought about in his old age. Man will move from stage to stage, finally reaching the grave and the Hereafter. But he rejects the Hereafter, as a result he is warned. He has seen the scenes of Divine omnipotence and revolutions - how dare he denies and rejects the Hereafter! Is Allah not the Greatest Ruler of all the rulers? [ 8]

Ruling

Sayyidna Abu Hurairah ؓ narrates that the Holy Prophet ﷺ said that while reciting Surah At-Tin, when one reaches the end of it:

أَلَيْسَ اللَّـهُ بِأَحْكَمِ الْحَاكِمِينَ

'Is Allah not the Greatest Ruler of all the rulers? [ 8] '

one should recite:

بلٰی وَاَنَا عَلٰی ذٰلِکَ مِنَ الشّاھِدِینَ

'Yes, indeed, Allah is the Ruler of the rulers, and I bear witness to it.'

The jurists have ruled that it is mustahab (preferable/desirable) to recite the words.

Al-hamdulillah
