 أَصْبَـحْـنا وَأَصْبَـحْ المُـلكُ للهِ رَبِّ العـالَمـين ، اللّهُـمَّ إِنِّـي أسْـأَلُـكَ خَـيْرَ هـذا الـيَوْم ، فَـتْحَهُ ، وَنَصْـرَهُ ، وَنـورَهُ وَبَـرَكَتَـهُ ، وَهُـداهُ ، وَأَعـوذُ بِـكَ مِـنْ شَـرِّ ما فـيهِ وَشَـرِّ ما بَعْـدَه |
The morning has come to me and the whole universe
belongs to Allah, the Lord of the worlds, O Allah, I ask of you the good of
the day, it's success and aid and it's nur (celestial light) and barakaat
(blessings) and seek hidayah (guidance) and seek refuge from the evil in it
(this day) and from the evil of that which is to come later.

Innalhamda lillahee, nahmaduhu wa nasta'eenuhu wa nastaghfiruhu, wa na'oodhu billaahi min shuroori anfusinaa wa min sayyiaati a'maalinaa. Mainyah dihillaahu falaa mudillilahu, wa mainyudlil falaa haadiya lah.
"Alhumdulillah. Indeed, all praise is due to Allah. We praise Him and seek His Help and forgiveness. We seek refuge in Allah from evils and our wrong doings. He whom Allah guides, no one can misguide; and he whom He misguides, no one can guide."
(Ibn Mas'ud and Ibn 'Abbas in Muslim, Abu Dawud, an-Nasai and others)
Wa ashhadu anlaa ilaaha illalaahu, wahdahu laashareeka lahu, wa ash hadu anna muhammadan 'abduhu wa rasooluh.
"I bear witness that there is no god except Allah- alone without any partners. And I bear witness that Muhammad is His 'abd (servant) and Messenger."
Allahumma salli 'alaa muhammadinwa 'alaa aali muhammadinwa 'alaa aali muhammadin kamaa sallayta 'alaa aali ibraaheema innaka hameedumajeed. Allahumma baarik 'alaa muhammadinwa 'alaa aali muhammadin kamaa baarakta 'alaa aali ibraaheema wa 'alaa aali ibraheema innaka hameedum majeed.
"O Allah, send prayers upon Muhammad and the followers of Muhammad, just as You sent prayers upon Ibraheem and upon the followers of Ibraheem. Verily you are full of praise and majesty. O Allaah, send blessings upon Muhammad and upon the family of Muhammad, just as You sent blessings upon Ibraheem and upon the family of Ibraheem. Verily, You are full of praise and majesty." ( Al-Bukhari with Al-Fath)

·
Name is because of one story in the Surah it’s not
title to indicate the subject verse 67-93
·
Many more Surahs of the Quran
have been named in the same way because no comprehensive words exist in Arabic
(in spite of its richness) to denote the wide scope of the subject discussed in
them. As a matter of fact all human languages suffer from the same limitation.
·
In sequence its madni it follows
the naturally makki surah al fatiha which ended “show us the straight way” , it
begins with anser to that prayer “this is the book (that) is guidance…”

Historically, in Makkah Quran
generally addressed Mushrik Quraish, b/c of ignorance to Islam but in Al
Madinah , the Jews aquainted with creed of the unity of Allah , prophethood,
revelation, the hereafter, and angels, they also professed to abide by the law
of Allah which was revealed to Prophet musa AH
·
, and in principle, their way was the same (Islam) that was being
taught by Prophet Muhammad (Allah's peace be upon him). But they had strayed
away from it during the centuries of degeneration and had adopted many
un-Islamic creeds, rites and customs of which there was no mention and for
which there was no sanction in the Torah. Not only this : they had tampered
with the Torah by inserting their own explanations and interpretations into its
text. They had distorted even that part of the Word of God which had remained
intact in their Scriptures and taken out of it the real spirit of true religion
and were now clinging to a lifeless frame of rituals. Consequently their
beliefs, their morals and their conduct had gone to the lowest depths of
degeneration. The pity is that they were not only satisfied with their
condition but loved to cling to it. Besides this, they had no intention or inclination
to accept any kind of reform. So they became bitter enemies of those who came
to teach them the Right Way and did their worst to defeat every such effort.
Though they were originally Muslims, they had swerved from the real Islam and
made innovations and alterations in it and had fallen victims to hair splitting
and sectarianism. They had forgotten and forsaken Allah and begun to serve
mammon. So much so that they had even given up their original name
"Muslim" and adopted the name "Jew" instead, and made
religion the sole monopoly of the children of Israel.
This was their religious condition when the Holy Prophet went to
Al-Madinah and invited the Jews to the true religion. That is why more than one
third of this Surah has been addressed to the children of Israel. A critical
review of their history, their moral degeneration and their religious
perversions has been made; side by side with this the high standard of morality
and the fundamental principles of the pure religion have been put forward in order
to bring out clearly the nature of the degeneration of the community of a
prophet when it goes astray and to draw clear lines of demarcation between real
piety and formalism, and the essentials and non-essentials of the true
religion.
·
At Makkah Islam was mainly concerned with the propagation of its
fundamental principles and the moral training of its followers. But after the
migration of the Holy Prophet to Al-Madinah, where Muslims had come to settle
from all over Arabia and where a tiny Islamic State had been set up with the
help of the Ansar (local supporters), naturally the Quran had to turn its
attention to the social, cultural, economic, political and legal problems as
well. This accounts for the difference between the themes of the surahs revealed
at Makkah and those at Al-Madinah. Accordingly about half of this Surah deals
with those principles and regulations which are essential for the integration
and solidarity of a community and for the solution of its problems.

"Glory be to your Lord, the Lord of Might above what they describe. And peace be upon those sent. And praise be to Allah, the Lord of the worlds." (Surah As-Saffat 37:180-182)
Subhanakallahumma wa bihamdika, ash hadu anlaa ilaaha illa anta, astaghfiruka wa atoobu ilaik.
"How perfect You are O Allaah, and I praise You. I bear witness that none has the right to be worshipped except You. I seek Your forgiveness and turn to You in repentance"
(Abu Dawud, At-Tirmidhee, Ibn Majah).
