Pages of the Glorius Qur'ān today, Friday 10/4/26, Sūrah al-Baqarah (2): 220-230, tafakkur verse 2: 222
Theme: Purity, Empathy, Consideration, Restraint and Love are recipes for a successful marriage
{وَیَسۡـَٔلُونَكَ عَنِ ٱلۡمَحِیضِۖ قُلۡ هُوَ أَذࣰى فَٱعۡتَزِلُوا۟ ٱلنِّسَاۤءَ فِی ٱلۡمَحِیضِ وَلَا تَقۡرَبُوهُنَّ حَتَّىٰ یَطۡهُرۡنَۖ فَإِذَا تَطَهَّرۡنَ فَأۡتُوهُنَّ مِنۡ حَیۡثُ أَمَرَكُمُ ٱللَّهُۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ یُحِبُّ ٱلتَّوَّ ٰبِینَ وَیُحِبُّ ٱلۡمُتَطَهِّرِینَ}
"And they ask you about menstruation. Say, It is harm, so keep away from wives during menstruation. And do not approach them until they are pure. And when they have purified themselves, then come to them from where Allāh has ordained for you. Indeed, Allāh loves those who are constantly repentant and loves those who purify themselves".
LESSONS:
1. Divine Guidance Protects Human Wellbeing: The verse explicitly describes menstruation as adha (harm), indicating that Islamic rulings are not arbitrary but rooted in wisdom and human welfare. The temporary restriction is a form of protection, physical, emotional, and hygienic, demonstrating that Sharīʿah seeks ease and wellbeing, not hardship.
2. Regulation, Not Rejection, of Intimacy: Islam does not suppress marital intimacy but regulates it with balance. The command to “keep away” refers specifically to sexual intercourse, not total separation or emotional distance. This teaches that even natural desires must operate within ethical boundaries defined by revelation.
3. Purity as a Condition for Certain Acts: The instruction to wait “until they are pure” establishes a broader principle: certain acts of worship and intimacy require a state of cleanliness. This reinforces the centrality of ṭahārah (purification) in Islam, not only physically but also spiritually.
4. Obedience Within Defined Limits: The phrase “from where Allāh has ordained for you” emphasizes that even within permissible acts, there are divinely set limits. True servitude (ʿubūdiyyah) is not just in avoiding the prohibited but in adhering precisely to what Allāh has allowed.
5. The Link Between Repentance and Purification: The verse concludes by connecting repentance (tawbah) and purification (ṭahārah) with divine love. This shows that Islam is not merely a system of rules, but a path of continuous moral and spiritual refinement, where physical cleanliness and inner sincerity both lead to closeness to Allāh.
Allāhumma ṭahhir qul��banā min al-dhunūb, wa zayyinhā bi’l-ikhlāṣ wa’t-taqwā. Allāhumma ijʿalnā min al-tawwābīn wa min al-mutaṭahhirīn, wa hab lanā quluban sālimah wa aʿmālan ṣāliḥah. Rabbana ātinā ṭahārah fī qulūbinā wa aʿmālinā, wa’jʿalnā min man tuḥibbuhum wa yarḍawna ʿanka. Āmīn.
O Allah, purify our hearts from sins and adorn them with sincerity and piety. Make us among those who constantly repent and those who purify themselves. Grant us sound hearts and righteous deeds. Our Lord, grant us purity in our hearts and actions, and make us among those whom You love and who are pleased with You. Āmīn. Āmīn 🤲.
