Tafsir

Ibn Kathīr (abridged)

Allah tells us about the disbelief, rebellion, oppression and denial of Fir`awn, as He says:

وَمَا رَبُّ الْعَـلَمِينَ

((Fir`awn said:) "And what is the Lord of the `Alamin") This is because he used to say to his people:

مَا عَلِمْتُ لَكُمْ مِّنْ إِلَـهٍ غَيْرِى

(I know not that you have a god other than me.) (28:28)

فَاسْتَخَفَّ قَوْمَهُ فَأَطَاعُوهُ

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.
