we still have dr israr, ustad nouman ali khan and dr fatma az zahraa giving their invaluable perspective of the ayat.
one prominent local ustaz, in fact a 'shaykh' by his own reckoning , wrote back to me to tell me that dr fatma zahraa is not an ulama', why i put her up here. i asked him back..'who gave you the ulama' title ya shaykh?'...
this lady was a qualified dentist, 50 years back when the shaykh was still wetting his nappies!. she is egyption by birth, speaks malay very well by virtue of being married to a local well known politician in the 80's, and has been in ceramah circuit for years even when i was in secondary school.
just 'listen' to her ceramah....put the 'she is not an ulama' issue on the back burner ya shaykh!

Surah Al-Baqara
Or like a rainstorm from the sky, wherein is darkness, thunder and
the flash of lightning. They thrust their fingers in their ears by reason of the
thunder-claps, for fear of death, Allah encompasseth the disbelievers. (in His
guidence) (19) The lightning almost
snatcheth away their sight from them. As often as it flasheth forth for them
they walk therein, and when it darkeneth against them they stand still. If Allah
willed, He could destroy their hearing and their sight. Lo! Allah is able to do
all things. (20) O mankind! worship
your Lord, Who hath created you and those before you, so that ye may ward off
(evil). (21) Who hath appointed the earth
a resting-place for you, and the sky a canopy; and causeth water to pour down
from the sky, thereby producing fruits as food for you. And do not set up rivals
to Allah when ye know (better). (22) And if ye are in doubt concerning that which We reveal unto Our slave
(Muhammad), then produce a surah of the like thereof, and call your witness
beside Allah if ye are truthful. (23) And if ye do it not - and ye can never do it - then guard yourselves
against the Fire prepared for disbelievers, whose fuel is of men and stones.
(24) And give glad tidings (O
Muhammad) unto those who believe and do good works; that theirs are Gardens
underneath which rivers flow; as often as they are regaled with food of the
fruit thereof, they say: this is what was given us aforetime; and it is given to
them in resemblance. There for them are pure companions; there for ever they
abide. (25) Lo! Allah disdaineth not to
coin the similitude even of a gnat or anything above that. Those who believe
know that it is the truth from their Lord; but those who disbelieve say: What
doth Allah wish (to teach) by such a similitude? He misleadeth many thereby, and
He guideth many thereby; and He misleadeth thereby only miscreants; (26)
Those who break the covenant of Allah
after ratifying it, and sever that which Allah ordered to be joined, and (who)
make mischief in the earth: Those are they who are the losers. (27)
How disbelieve ye in Allah when ye were
dead and He gave life to you! Then He will give you death, then life again, and
then unto Him ye will return. (28) He it is Who created for you all that is in the earth. Then turned He
to the heaven, and fashioned it as seven heavens. And He is knower of all
things. (29) And when thy Lord said unto
the angels: Lo! I am about to place a viceroy in the earth, they said: Wilt thou
place therein one who will do harm therein and will shed blood, while we, we
hymn Thy praise and sanctify Thee? He said: Surely I know that which ye know
not. (30) And He taught Adam all the
names, then showed them to the angels, saying: Inform Me of the names of these,
if ye are truthful. (31) They said: Be
glorified! We have no knowledge saving that which Thou hast taught us. Lo! Thou,
only Thou, art the Knower, the Wise. (32) He said: O Adam! Inform them of their names, and when he had informed
them of their names, He said: Did I not tell you that I know the secret of the
heavens and the earth? And I know that which ye disclose and which ye hide. (33)
And when We said unto the angels:
Prostrate yourselves before Adam, they fell prostrate, all save Iblis. He
demurred through pride, and so became a disbeliever. (34) And We said: O Adam! Dwell thou and thy wife in the
Garden, and eat ye freely (of the fruits) thereof where ye will; but come not
nigh this tree lest ye become wrong-doers. (35) But Satan caused them to deflect therefrom and expelled
them from the (happy) state in which they were; and We said: Fall down, one of
you a foe unto the other! There shall be for you on earth a habitation and
provision for a time. (36) Then Adam received from his Lord words (of revelation), and He
relented toward him. Lo! He is the relenting, the Merciful. (37)
We said: Go down, all of you, from hence;
but verily there cometh unto you from Me a guidance; and whoso followeth My
guidance, there shall no fear come upon them neither shall they grieve. (38)
But they who disbelieve, and deny Our
revelations, such are rightful owners of the Fire. They will abide therein. (39)

Reflection and commentary by Dato Dr Fatma al Zahraa [ Malay ] :-
[ ayat 26 - ayat 34 ] : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0aFVr7-__UM
story around of creation of nabi adam alaihisalam...
fatma zahraa's perspective about azazil's alias iblis 's contention, prior to adam's creation is
different from nouman's and israr's perspective......
interesting perspective!
