🌿 Why Suratul Al-Kawthar?
In a post (saƙon) on X (formerly Twitter), Dr. Shadee stated:
A wani sako a kan X (wato Twitter a baya), Dr. Shadee ya ambaci cewa:
“The cure for sadness in the Quran is constant repetition of Surat al-Kawthar until one's heart is relieved. This is because when the Prophet ﷺ was sad, Allah revealed it to him.” X (formerly Twitter)
"Maganin baqin ciki a cikin Alqur'ani shine yawan maimaita suratul Kausar har sai zuciyar mutum ta huce, domin lokacin da Annabi SAW ya yi bakin ciki ne Allah ya saukar masa da ita.". X (tsohon Twitter)
This insight is rooted in the historical context of the surah's revelation. Surah Al-Kawthar was revealed to the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ during a period of personal grief, particularly after the loss of his son (Ibrahim). The surah served as a divine consolation, affirming the Prophet's spiritual abundance and the futility of his detractors' claims.
