The four groups - Part 1

The second group of verses of surah al-Hajj includes verses 3 to 16. In these verses, four types of people are introduced, based on their attitude towards Allah and their ending.

The first group are those who argue about Allah without having knowledge and with the intention of screening the truth, therefore, they follow the Shaytan and other devils. Allah's rule is that one who takes the Shaytan as their leader will fall off the path and they will be led to punishment. According to the verses, the main reason one accepts to follow the Shaytan is their lack of knowledge. The next verses explain why and how the Day of Judgment will arrive. This is an area of knowledge about which one needs to educate themselves. Knowledge about the Day of Judgment will regulate one's beliefs and will influence their view about Allah. Some sources that will transform people's attitude towards the day of judgment include thinking about the process of human development before and after birth, and how plants grow out of the still soil with the help of water.

Adam's descent

It all started with Adam descending from the Garden to live on the earth.
In his creation, Adam was meant to by Allah to degrade from the position that he had so he would fill the distance between Allah and him by his own will, and then enter the eternal paradise.
Surah al-Baqara: 24-27

First part: the Quake

The verses of surah al-Hajj can be grouped in seven parts.
First part: verses 1-2
These verses speak about a sudden huge quake that will force humans to abandon all their attachments, as a result of facing the terrible situation. The reason Allah mentions this event is to urge humans prepare themselves for the Resurrection Day with piety, as a basis for actions and behaviors.
