Ar-Rafi'
Mwenye Kunyanyua
Maana
Ar-Rafi' ni Yule anayepandisha na kuinua. Anainua hadhi ya waumini, anawainua wanyenyekevu, anainua daraja za wacha-Mungu, na anamtukuza amtakaye. Alimpandisha Mtume (rehema na amani ziwe juu yake) hadi daraja la juu zaidi miongoni mwa viumbe vyote. Anainua baadhi ya mataifa juu ya mengine, baadhi ya watu juu ya wengine — si kwa vipimo vya kidunia bali kwa imani na ucha-Mungu wao. Allah anatuambia anawainua wale wanaoamini na wale waliopewa elimu kwa daraja. Kuinuliwa kwa kweli kunatoka si kwa utajiri au umaarufu bali kwa taqwa, elimu, na kuhudumia wengine. Ar-Rafi' anaona matendo ya kimya ya ibada ambayo hakuna mwingine anayeyaona na anawainua wanaoyatenda.
Katika Quran
Surah Al-Mujadilah (58:11): "Allah will raise those who have believed among you and those who were given knowledge, by degrees."
Tafakari ya Kila Siku
Ni nini kweli kinachoinua hadhi yako — cheo chako cha kazi au sala zako katika theluthi ya mwisho ya usiku? Ar-Rafi' anapima kuinuka tofauti na dunia inavyopima.
