And the ones He is pleased with are the companions (Sahaaba). Whenever Allaah mentions tese words, this is what is meant. Thus the literal/linguistic meaning of "رَّضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمْ وَرَضُوا عَنْهُ" means "Allaah was pleased with THEM" and they were pleased with HIM".

I don't want to go into the 14 forms of the pronouns here :) رَّضِيَ عن = He was pleased with (and it is used in the past tense)Īdding the pronouns "ه" and "هم" respectively mean "He" and "Them". Allah is pleased with them and they are pleased with Him, and He has prepared for them gardens beneath which rivers flow, wherein they willĪbide forever. Muhajireen and the Ansar and those who followed them with good conduct I want the answer to be based on the meaning in Quran 9:100, if it means the former(1) (A dua to Allah) then what is the arabic expression for the latter(2) i.e Allah is pleased with him ?Īlso if it means the latter(2) then shouldn't such a statement be used only by Allah, since ALLAH alone knows whom he is pleased with which he explicitly mentions in 9:100.?Īnd the first forerunners among the I have found some discrepancies in using this term " Radiyallahu Anhu" does it mean:ġ) May Allah be pleased with him (A dua to Allah)Ģ) Allah is pleased with him (A statement about whom Allah is pleased with)
