Dawn and Dawn Salat
وَالْفَجْرِ {1}
(I Swear) by the dawn [89:1]
وَ سَأَلَ رَجُلٌ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع عَنْ قَوْلِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَ وَ الْفَجْرِ فَقَالَ لَيْسَ فِيهَا وَاوٌ وَ إِنَّمَا هُوَ الْفَجْرُ
And a man asked Abu Abdullah-asws about Words of Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic: (I Swear) by the dawn [89:1]. He-asws said: ‘There isn’t the letter ‘Waw’ in it, and rather it is ‘The dawn’’.
وَ قَرَأَ رَجُلٌ عَلَى أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع جاهِدِ الْكُفَّارَ وَ الْمُنافِقِينَ فَقَالَ هَلْ رَأَيْتُمْ وَ سَمِعْتُمْ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ص قَاتَلَ مُنَافِقاً إِنَّمَا كَانَ يَتَأَلَّفُهُمْ وَ إِنَّمَا قَالَ اللَّهُ جَلَّ وَ عَزَّ جَاهِدِ الْكُفَّارَ بِالْمُنَافِقِينَ
And a man recited to Abu Abdullah-asws: Fight the Kafirs and the hypocrites [9:73]. He-asws said: ‘Have you seen and heard that Rasool-Allah-saww fought the hypocrites? But rather, he-saww had a rapport with them, and rather Allah-azwj Majestic and Mighty Said: “Fight the Kafirs with the hypocrites”’ (as most of the army of Muslims consisted of hyprocrites as they showed their hierocracy after Rasool Allah-saww).[1]
