► Commentary of Surat-ur-Rahman, surah number 55. The Surah which beautifully depicts Allah’s all-encompassing love and mercy for His creation, informs mankind of the innumerable bounties provided as a sign of His grace and compassion for both mankind and Jinn.

Ar-Rahman, the Most gracious is an attribute exclusive to Allah (swt), reflecting His divine Graciousness that encompasses not just any specific individual, but all of His creation. 

It is noteworthy that Surah Ar-Rahman is the only chapter in the Holy Quran which begins with an all-encompassing trait of Graciousness. Being Ar-Rahman is mentioned as a pre-requisite to impart knowledge. Allah (swt) Himself exemplifies the importance of being  Ar-Rahman in order to spread knowledge. 

Thus, it is of utmost importance for us to understand the significance of this trait in relation to teaching. How essential is this attribute to education? How much of it do we impart in our role as educators? 

Aalima Razia Batool Najafali very comprehensively answers these questions in this enlightening book. 

Alongside exploring this surah in much more detail, she also shows us how to derive maximum benefit out of it, by implementing teachings from it in our daily lives.
