On the word Worlds with an "S",
Surah 1 The Opener : Verse 2 says : Praise be to Allah, Lord of the Worlds,
Or some may translate it as , All the praises and thanks be to Allah, the Lord of the Alameen (mankind, jinns and all that exists).
The problem with reading translations is that, no language can compare to the language of the Quran. The reason that Quran was brought down in Arabic is because it is the richest language in the world. So it is quite hard to get an exact translation to a Quran Arabic word.
Now as for the word Alameen, after reading a few translations. I have decided that it does mean the worlds, the physical and spiritual world. The spiritual world is Barzakh does automatically also answer my second question, which is : -
Why does it mentioned only the World and Day of Judgment? Not Barzakh.
I also asked my dad on this questioned which he answered : -
The first Surah is just an Opener, Surah 2 which is The Cow, is the summary of the whole Quran. So for us to get an answer we should not only refer to one Surah but the specific Surah for the topic.
Honestly this is harder then I thought, but I wont stop here, until next time.
