Explanation of Surat al-Kawthar
Anas said, "Once the Prophet was sitting with us and suddenly he dosed off. A short time later he raised his head and said, "A chapter was revealed to me earlier." Then he read, "Indeed, We have granted you al-Kawthar. So, pray to your Lord and sacrifice. Indeed, the one who insults you, he is cut off." The Prophet asked, "Do you know what is the kawthar?" We responded, "Allah and His Messenger know better." He responded, "It is a river that God, the Mighty and Exalted, promised me. There is an abundance of good in it. It is a fount that my community will gather by on the Day of Standing [the Day of
Judgment]."
Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) was not from those who accepted Islam in Mecca. In fact, it is well known that he became Muslim in Medina. Thus, it was impossible for him to have witnessed any revelation that took place in Mecca. Based on this, it is safe to say that this chapter of Qur'an was revealed in Medina, and that the verse "Your enemy" was not revealed about al-As bin Wail as will be discussed shortly,
insh'Allah.

All is from Allah ... and a little from Abdullah |
|
Kullu min Allah... u'shwaya min Abdullah. (All
is from Allah... and a little from Abdullah.)
The first part of this saying is frequently
spoken by elder Bedouin, usually in cases of misfortune, and is accompanied by a
shrug of the shoulders. All is from Allah: fortune and adversity, joy and
suffering, life and death. All is determined, all is written. There is an
Intelligence at work that keeps this vast universe in order and determines the
role and path of each particle of its infinitude. Like the cells in a body, we
live and die in service of something incomparably larger.
And yet, we have become an odd type of cell
that believes unshakably in its own existence as apart from the whole. Today,
the "Kullu min Allah" view seems quaintly fatalistic and a disclaimer
of personal responsibility. We have come to value above all else our power and
our right to determine, if not the outcome of what we do, at least the direction
and content of our lives. We believe firmly that we form our own fate. If things
seem to go contrary to our wishes, it is because we have not been vocal enough
in asserting them, or strong enough to conquer obstacles.
We are not ones to trust in blind forces, and
certainly not in any divine representatives of those forces.
