If you say: How does His description of negating a child and a partner and humiliation fit with the words of praise? [Mahamud said: "If you say: How does His description of negating a child and a partner... etc."] Ahmad said: And Al-Zamakhshari noted here what he overlooked when he said, 'All praise is due to Allah, who created the heavens and the earth and made darkness and light. Then those who disbelieved in their Lord associate others with Him.' I have previously responded to this point, that this sentence does not fit with the words of praise and is not suitable for it. For if you were to say at the beginning: 'All praise is due to Allah, who those who disbelieved in Him associate others with,' it would not be appropriate. And Allah knows best. I said: Because the one described in this way is the one who is capable of bestowing every blessing. He is the one who deserves all types of praise. The Prophet, blessings and peace be upon him, would teach this verse to the boy from the Banu Abd al-Muttalib when he became articulate. [Reported by Ibn Abi Shaybah and Abd al-Razzaq. They said: Ibn Uyaynah informed us from Abd al-Karim from Amr ibn Shu'aib from his father from his grandfather.] From the Messenger of Allah, blessings and peace be upon him: 'Whoever recites Surah Al-Isra and his heart softens at the mention of parents will have a qintar in Paradise, and a qintar is a thousand uqiyyah and two hundred uqiyyah.' May Allah grant us by His abundant grace and immense kindness.
