﷽
طٰهٰۚ ﴿۱﴾ مَاۤ اَنۡزَلۡـنَا عَلَيۡكَ الۡـقُرۡاٰنَ لِتَشۡقٰٓىۙ ﴿۲﴾ اِلَّا تَذۡكِرَةً لِّمَنۡ يَّخۡشٰىۙ ﴿۳﴾ تَنۡزِيۡلاً مِّمَّنۡ خَلَقَ الۡاَرۡضَ وَالسَّمٰوٰتِ الۡعُلَىؕ ﴿۴﴾ الرَّحۡمٰنُ عَلَى الۡعَرۡشِ اسۡتَوٰى ﴿۵﴾ لَهٗ مَا فِى السَّمٰوٰتِ وَمَا فِى الۡاَرۡضِ وَمَا بَيۡنَهُمَا وَمَا تَحۡتَ الثَّرٰى ﴿۶﴾ وَاِنۡ تَجۡهَرۡ بِالۡقَوۡلِ فَاِنَّهٗ يَعۡلَمُ السِّرَّ وَاَخۡفٰى ﴿۷﴾ اللّٰهُ لَاۤ اِلٰهَ اِلَّا هُوَؕ لَـهُ الۡاَسۡمَآءُ الۡحُسۡنٰى ﴿۸
طہٰ ﴿۱﴾ (اے محمدﷺ) ہم نے تم پر قرآن اس لئے نازل نہیں کیا کہ تم مشقت میں پڑ جاؤ ﴿۲﴾ بلکہ اس شخص کو نصیحت دینے کے لئے (نازل کیا ہے) جو خوف رکھتا ہے ﴿۳﴾ یہ اس (ذات برتر) کا اتارا ہوا ہے جس نے زمین اور اونچے اونچے آسمان بنائے ﴿۴﴾ (یعنی خدائے) رحمٰن جس نےعرش پر قرار پکڑا ﴿۵﴾ جو کچھ آسمانوں میں ہے اور جو کچھ زمین میں ہے اور جو کچھ ان دونوں کے بیچ میں ہے اور جو کچھ (زمین کی) مٹی کے نیچے ہے سب اسی کا ہے ﴿۶﴾ اور اگر تم پکار کر بات کہو تو وہ تو چھپے بھید اور نہایت پوشیدہ بات تک کو جانتا ہے ﴿۷﴾ (وہ معبود برحق ہے کہ) اس کے سوا کوئی معبود نہیں ہے۔ اس کے (سب) نام اچھے ہیں ﴿۸
We have not sent down the Quran unto you (O Muhammad) to cause you distress, but only as a reminder to those who fear (God). A revelation from Him who has created the earth and high heavens. The Most Beneficent rose over the (Mighty) Throne (in a manner that suits His Majesty). To Him belongs all that is in the heavens and all that is on the earth, and all that is between them, and all that is under the soil. And if you (O Muhammad) speak aloud, then verily, He knows the secret and that which is yet more hidden. No one has the right to be worshipped but He! To Him belong the Best Names.
The above verse is interpreted as having been revealed in this regard to show that upon reading the verses of Surah Ta ha, Islam began to enter his heart and he was a completely changed man he came to the verse:
“Indeed I am Allah. There is none worthy of worship other than Me. So serve Me
and establish Salah in My remembrance.”
He said: “Alright, take me to Muhammad (sallallahu alaihi wa sallam).”
On hearing this, Khabbab (radhiAllahu anhu) came out from inside and said: “O
Umar! Good news for you. Yesterday, the Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wa sallam)
made du`a to Allah, ‘O, Allah strengthen Islam with either Umar or Abu lahl,
with whoever you wish. It seems that his prayer has been answered in your
favour.”
Umar then went to the Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) and embraced Islam
on Friday morning.
