Verily, the likeness of the life of this world is like water which We send down from the sky, and the plants of the earth, from which men and cattle eat, are mingled therewith, until when the earth puts on its ornament and is adorned, and her people think that they are her masters, Our commandment comes to it by night or day, and We make it as it were mown down corn, as though it had not flourished yesterday. Thus do We detail the signs unto a people who reflect.

Thus do We make clear the messages for a people who reflect.

Tafseer Ibn Kathir

Allah calls to the Abode of Peace (Paradise) and guides whom He wills to the straight path.

Jabir b Abdullah narrated that Prophet (peace be upon him) came to them and said;

I have seen in my sleep that it was as if Jibril was at my head and Mika'il at my leg. They were saying to each other;`Give an example for him.'

He said;`Listen, your ear may listen. And fathom, your heart may fathom. The parable of you and your Ummah is that of a king who has built a house on his land. He arranged a banquet in it. Then he sent a messenger to invite the people to his food. Some accepted the invitation and others did not. Allah is the King and the land is Islam, the house is Paradise and you Muhammad are the Messenger. Whosoever responds to your call enters Islam. And whosoever enters Islam enters Paradise. And whosoever enters Paradise eats from it.

Ibn Jarir recorded this Hadith.

It was also reported that Abu Ad-Darda' said that Allah's Messenger said;

مَا مِنْ يَوْمٍ طَلَعَتْ فِيهِ الشَّمْسُ إِلاَّ وَبِجَنْبَيْهَا مَلَكَانِ يُنَادِيَانِ يَسْمَعُهُ خَلْقُ اللهِ كُلُّهُمْ إِلاَّ الثَّقَلَيْنِ يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ هَلُمُّوا إِلَى رَبِّكُمْ إِنَّ مَا قَلَّ وَكَفَى خَيْرٌ مِمَّا كَثُرَ وَأَلْهَى

Two angels descend every day in which the sun rises and say that which all Allah's creatures would hear except Jinn and humans;`O people! Come to your Lord! Anything little and sufficient is better than a lot but distractive.'

And He sent this down in the Qur'an when He said;

وَاللّهُ يَدْعُو إِلَى دَارِ السَّلَمِ

"Allah calls to the Abode of Peace."

Ibn Abi Hatim and Ibn Jarir recorded this
