    📖 Commentary of Surah Sad – Verse 22

    "When they entered upon Dawood, he became confused [39] of them. They said: 'Fear [40] not, we are two disputants, one of us has aggressed against the other [41]. Therefore, judge between us with justice and be not unjust [42] and guide us to the right path.'"

    ✅ [39] Dawood’s Initial Alarm

    Hazrat Dawood (peace be upon him) was momentarily confused when the visitors suddenly appeared, as the door was closed. According to some Sufi explanations, his fear was not of them, but of Allah, recognizing that this unexpected visit carried divine meaning.

    ✅ [40] Reassurance to a Prophet

    They told him not to fear, reminding us that prophets are protected and, through their blessings, others find safety—so it was not befitting for him to feel unease.

    ✅ [41] Lessons from a Simulated Dispute

    Though this was a staged case, it shows that presenting a hypothetical example for a ruling is valid. Additionally, this respectful approach by the angels indirectly honored the status of the Prophet ﷺ, implying that even divine beings approach with care when correcting or instructing prophets.

    ✅ [42] Guidance for Judges and Seekers of Verdicts

    Their request for fair judgment shows it's permitted to remind a judge or Mufti to remain just when seeking a decision. This isn't disrespect—it reflects the seriousness and sincerity of the appeal.
