Ibad-Ur-Rahman K Ausaf Soora-e Furqan Ki Aakhri Aayat Ki Roshni Main – Total 9 Parts
“Ibad-ur-Rahman Ki Khususiyaat: Soorah Furqan Ki Aakhri Aayaat Ki Roshni Mein” (The Characteristics of the Servants of the Most Merciful: In Light of the Final Verses of Soorah-e Furqan) is an Islamic analytical and exegetical work authored by the Iranian scholar Aayat-Ullah Muhammad Muhammadi Ishtihardi and translated into Urdu by Hujjat-Ul-Islam Wal-Muslimeen Allama Saeed Hyder Zaidi. The book focuses on the concluding verses of Soorah-e Furqan (Verses 63–76) from the Quran. In these verses, ALLAH highlights the distinguishing qualities of His noble and favored servants, bestowing upon them the title Ibad-ur-Rahman (“Servants of the Most Gracious”). The author provides a detailed, verse-by-verse commentary (tafseer) aimed at breaking down these ideal moral and spiritual characteristics so readers can practicalize them in everyday life. The book categorizes and expands upon the core traits outlined in the Soorah: 1. Humility and Demeanor (Hawnan): How true believers conduct themselves on Earth with dignity, simplicity, and lack of arrogance. 2. Patience in Conflict: Responding to ignorance and harshness with peace, composure, and prayers of safety (Salam) rather than hostility. 3. Devotion and Night Prayers (Qiyam): Spending hours in voluntary night worship (Tahajjud) in prostration and prayer. 4. Fear of Divine Punishment: Constantly praying to be safeguarded from Hell, remaining humble despite good deeds. 5. Financial Balance: Practicing moderation in spending by avoiding both extravagance (Israaf) and miserliness (Qatr). 6. Rejection of Major Sins: Abstaining strictly from polytheism (Shirk), unlawful killing, and adultery (Zina). 7. Social Integrity & Truthfulness: Refusing to bear false witness, avoiding idle talk, and acting attentively when reminded of divine revelations. 8. Focus on Family & Leadership: Praying for righteous spouses and children, and aspiring to be role models in piety (Imam for the righteous). Style and Practical Relevance 1. Ethical Guidance: Rather than remaining purely academic, the text bridges classical Quranic exegesis with actionable advice on personal ethics, spiritual growth, and social conduct. 2. Urdu Translation: Translated by Saeed Hyder Zaidi, the Urdu edition preserves the analytical depth of Ishtihardi’s original work in accessible language for South Asian readers. This Heart-touching, attractive, charming, informative, useful, short but comprehensive book has been recited by respected Mrs. Syeda Tahira Abbas Jafari in her attractive style for Kashana-e Baseerat from the bottom of her heart.
