Question Assalamualaykum, Answer Wa alaikum
assalaam wa rahmatu Allahi wa barakatuh. We are slightly
confused by the question, because there is no surah named zamil, but aayah 9
of surah Az-Zumar (surah 39) is the aayah in the second part of your question,
and may be the surah in question in the first part of the question.
All aayaat were revealed to the Prophet Muhammed,
The translation
of the explanation of the meaning of aayah 9 of surah Az-Zumar is: Is one
who worships devoutly during the hour of the night prostrating himself or
standing (in adoration), who takes heed of the Hereafter, and who places his
hope in the Mercy of his Lord - (like one who does not)? Say: "Are those
equal, those who know and those who do not know? It is those who are endued
with understanding that receive admonition. Aayah
9 of surah Az-Zumar according to a
tradition related by Ibn Abee Haatim was describing ‘Uthman bin Affaan, may
Allah be pleased with him because of his plentiful night prayers and
recitation of the Qur’an, but there are other traditions who name other
companions as the one being described. Even
if there are traditions that it describes a certain companion, it can apply to
many Muslims past and present who spend a great portion of the night in prayer
seeking the mercy of Allah and taking heed of the Hereafter. Wa assalaam |
, but there are some aayaat that had a
reason for revelation, meaning a specific occurrence caused the timing of the
revelation of an aayah, or it is known from a hadeeth that it was about a
certain person.
