Jaihoon’s thoughts & notes during Holy Quran commentary lectures by Simsarul Haq Hudawi

It is one’s own disbelief which causes the hear to be sealed
While Adam admitted his sin in humility, the Satan blamed God for making him astray.
That resulted in the difference of the destinies of both.
Gafara means to cover up sins. Gafoor is one who forgives in plenty.
Allah will not punish a slave in both worlds for the same sin. The punishment in this world very light compared to the hereafter
Simply because one is assigned as Prophet does not mean he would be knowledgeable about all things
The place where the dead fish escaped was where Khidr was found. This signifies two things. Firstly, the nature of Khidr’s knowledge: the dead fish became alive in the rocky area where Khidr dwelled. Only true God-given knowledge can enliven dead hearts. Secondly, it was the also the place where they forgot: Man-made knowledge faints in the vicinity of knowledge given by Allah. (Jaihoon)
