When Surah Ar-Rahman Was Revealed
Read Surah Ar-Rahman with its meanings.
"Which of the blessings of Allah will you both deny?" Who is "you both"? Humankind and jinn kind.
Now, beautiful situation.
The Companions' Silence
When this surah was revealed, the Prophet ﷺ goes to his companions and he recites to them the whole surah. فَسَكَتُوا — he sees them, they're quiet. He says, "What is this reaction? I recited this surah to the jinn and their reaction was better than you guys."
The Jinn's Response
Authentic hadith regarding Surah Ar-Rahman: every time I said —
— they said, "O Allah, we will never reject Your blessings."
Every time I said it — they couldn't help themselves.
But the Human Being…
But the human being —
"And man is the most argumentative of all things."
