From this ayah, Allah SWT have sent down the Quran to the prophet Muhammmad
SAW trough Jibrail.The prophet taught his companions, and through them he taught
us, the importance of the verses, their usage, and how to implement them in
practice.Here are four ways in which the Prophet explained the Quran.
First, the prophet give direct explanation of verses of the quran.Sometimes the
Prophet would recite a verse and then explain its meaning.At other times, he would
say something profound, and then back it up with a verse from the Quran.
Second, the prophet also convey Quran, the holy scriptures by answering questions.
When the companions were confused about certain words of the Quran, they would
ask the Prophet to explain it to them.
Last of all, the prophet explain the Quran through implementation of a verse.We find
the Prophet following the Quran in every sphere of his life.The most evident example
of his direct implementation of the Quran is when surah al-Nasr was revealed.
Aisha narrated:
‘The Prophet used to say frequently in his bowing and prostrations:
“Exalted are You, O Allah, our Lord, and by Your praise [do I exalt
you]. O Allah! Forgive me.”
In this way, he was acting on what was explained to him in the Holy
Quran.’ (Sahih al-Bukhari)
The verse referred to is the following:
Then exalt [Him] with praise of your Lord and ask forgiveness of Him.
Indeed, He is ever Accepting of repentance. (110:3)
In conclusion, the prophet has done his duty in conveying al-quran.
Now, the choice is in our hands whether to appreciate the prophet's
efforts or no
The role of the Prophet Muhammad didn’t end with the
He taught his companions, and through them he taught us, the importance
of the verses, their usage, and how to implement them in practice. Allah
says:
It is He who has sent among the unlettered a Messenger from
themselves reciting to them His verses and purifying them and
teaching them the Book and wisdom – although they were
before in clear error. (Quran 62:2)
“Teaching” is vaster in meaning than mere conveying.
It involves giving the students the text, then explaining the meaning and
demonstrating with examples, and then helping them put the lessons into
practice.
Here are four ways in which the Prophet (peace be upon him) explained the
Quran.
2- Answering Questions
Sometimes, when the Companions were confused about certain words of
the Quran, they would ask the Prophet to explain it to them.
Example:
“When (the following) was revealed: {It is those who believe and confuse not
their belief with zulm (wrong)} (6:82) – That bothered some Muslims, so
they said:
‘O Messenger of Allah! Which of us has not wronged himself?’
He said:
“It is not that, it is only Shirk, have you not heard what
Luqman said to his son: {O my son! Do not commit Shirk with
Allah. Verily Shirk is a tremendous zulm (wrong)} (31:13).”
(Tirmidhi)
Sometimes the Prophet was asked questions by disbelievers, often in order
to ridicule him – questions about which no revelation had yet come.
Allah gave their answers, beginning with the words: “And they ask you . . .”
(Note that not all of these questions may have come from disbelievers).
Example:
“As I was going along with Allah’s Apostle in a cultivable land
and he was walking with the support of a wood, a group of
Jews happened to meet him. Some of them said to the others:
“Ask him about the Soul.”
They said: What is your doubt about it? There is a possibility
that you may ask him about anything (the answer of) which
you may not like.
They said: “Ask him”.
So one amongst them asked him about the Soul. Allah’s
Messenger kept quiet and he gave no reply and I came to
know that revelation was being sent to him, so I stood at my
place and thus this revelation descended upon him: {They ask
thee about the Soul. Say: The Soul is by the Commandment of
my Lord, and of Knowledge you are given but a
little.} (17:85)) (Muslim)
4- Implementation of a Verse
We find the Prophet following the Quran in every sphere of his life.
The most evident example of his direct implementation of the Quran is
when surah al-Nasr was revealed.
Aisha narrated:
‘The Prophet used to say frequently in his bowing and
prostrations:
“Exalted are You, O Allah, our Lord, and by Your praise [do I
exalt you]. O Allah! Forgive me.”
In this way, he was acting on what was explained to him in
the Holy Quran.’ (Sahih al-Bukhari)
The verse referred to is the following:
Then exalt [Him] with praise of your Lord and ask forgiveness
of Him. Indeed, He is ever Accepting of repentance. (110:3)
