Mawlānā (مَوْلَانَا)

Master, Guardian

لَا يُكَلِّفُ اللَّهُ نَفْسًا إِلَّا وُسْعَهَا ۚ لَهَا مَا كَسَبَتْ وَعَلَيْهَا مَا اكْتَسَبَتْ ۗ رَبَّنَا لَا تُؤَاخِذْنَا إِنْ نَسِينَا أَوْ أَخْطَأْنَا ۚ رَبَّنَا وَلَا تَحْمِلْ عَلَيْنَا إِصْرًا كَمَا حَمَلْتَهُ عَلَى الَّذِينَ مِنْ قَبْلِنَا ۚ رَبَّنَا وَلَا تُحَمِّلْنَا مَا لَا طَاقَةَ لَنَا بِهِ ۖ وَاعْفُ عَنَّا وَاغْفِرْ لَنَا وَارْحَمْنَا ۚ أَنْتَ مَوْلَانَا فَانْصُرْنَا عَلَى الْقَوْمِ الْكَافِرِينَ {286}

(Allah Said): “Allah does not Encumber a soul except to its capacity. For it would be what it earned and against it would be what it earned”. (The Rasool said): ‘Our Lord! Do not Seize us if we forget or we make a mistake. Our Lord! And do not Load upon us a burden like what You Loaded upon those from before us. Our Lord! And do not Load upon us what we have no strength for us with it; and Pardon (our sins) for us and have Mercy on us. You are our ‘مَوْلَانَا’ Master, therefore Help us against the Kafir people’. [2:286]

قُلْ لَنْ يُصِيبَنَا إِلَّا مَا كَتَبَ اللَّهُ لَنَا هُوَ مَوْلَانَا ۚ وَعَلَى اللَّهِ فَلْيَتَوَكَّلِ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ {51}

Say: ‘It will never befall us except what Allah Ordains for us. He is our ‘مَوْلَانَا’ Master, and upon Allah do the Momineen rely’ [9:51]

علي بن إبراهيم: في رواية أبي الجارود، عن أبي جعفر (عليه السلام)، في قوله: إِنْ تُصِبْكَ حَسَنَةٌ تَسُؤْهُمْ وَ إِنْ تُصِبْكَ مُصِيبَةٌ: «أما الحسنة فالغنيمة و العافية، و أما المصيبة فالبلاء و الشدة يَقُولُوا قَدْ أَخَذْنا أَمْرَنا مِنْ قَبْلُ وَ يَتَوَلَّوْا وَ هُمْ فَرِحُونَ قُلْ لَنْ يُصِيبَنا إِلَّا ما كَتَبَ اللَّهُ لَنا هُوَ مَوْلانا وَ عَلَى اللَّهِ فَلْيَتَوَكَّلِ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ

Ali Bin Ibrahim said, ‘And in a report of Abu Al Jaroud,

(It has been narrated) from Abu Ja’far-asws regarding His-azwj Words: If good befalls you, it grieves them, and if a calamity befalls you [9:50]. He-asws said: ‘As for the good so it is the war booty and the health. And as for the calamity, so it is the affliction and the hardship, they are saying, ‘We have taken (care of) our affairs from before’, and they are turning around and they are joyful [9:50] Say: ‘It will never befall us except what Allah Ordains for us. He is our Master, and upon Allah do the Momineen rely’ [9:51]’.[1]
