Chapter 30 | Hubeali en-US Chapter 30 | Hubeali 32 32 AL-ROUM (Chapter 30) Sura Al-Roum (60 verses) was revealed in Makkah.[1] ‘From Abu Ja’far-asws, regarding: Alif Lam Meem [30:1] The Romans are defeated [30:2] In a nearby land, and they (Persians), after their victory, would be defeated [30:3] Within a few years. [30:4], said: ‘Alif Lam Meem [30:1] The Romans are defeated [30:2]. O Abu Ubeyda!

There is an interpretation for this, And none knows its interpretation except Allah, and those who are firmly rooted in the Knowledge. [3:7], from the Imams-asws. When Rasool-Allah-saww emigrated to Al Medina – and Al-Islam had appeared – wrote a letter to the king of Rome and sent a messenger to him inviting him to Al-Islam, and he-saww wrote a letter to the king of Persia and sent a messenger to him inviting him to Al-Islam.

As for the king of Rome, he respected the letter and honoured his-saww messenger, and as for the king of Persia, he tore his-saww letter and belittled the messenger of Rasool-Allah-saww. And it was so that the king of Persia in those days was at war with the king of Rome, and the Muslims were desirous that the king of Rome should overcome the king of Persia, and they were siding with him wishing (victory over) the king of Persia.

So, when the king of Persia overcame the king of Rome, the Muslims disliked that and were gloomy due to it. The post AL-ROUM (Chapter 30) first appeared on Hubeali.]]>
