أَلَآ إِنَّ أَوْلِيَآءَ ٱللَّهِ لَا خَوْفٌ عَلَيْهِمْ وَلَا هُمْ يَحْزَنُونَ
Unquestionably, [for] the allies of Allah there will be no fear concerning them, nor will they grieve
Translation · Saheeh International
Tafsir
Ibn Kathīr (abridged)
Identifying the Awliya' of Allah
Allah tells us that His Awliya' (friends and allies) are those who believe and have Taqwa of Allah as He defined them. Every pious, God-fearing person is a friend of Allah, therefore,
لاَ خَوْفٌ عَلَيْهِمْ
(no fear shall come upon them) from the future horrors they will face in the Hereafter.
وَلاَ هُمْ يَحْزَنُونَ
(nor shall they grieve.) over anything left behind in this world. Ibn Jarir recorded that Abu Hurayrah said that Allah's Messenger ﷺ said:
Read it in an app that guards your attention.
Sadd blocks distracting apps around the five prayers. Every deliberate bypass costs you a written niyyah — and, if you choose, a real ṣadaqah. The Qur'ān, prayer times, qibla and tasbīḥ all work offline.
