Jesus ’ parable stresses that the discreet virgins, unlike the foolish, were ready for the bridegroom’s coming. Why? Because of two qualities: preparedness and vigilance.
فَقَدْ وَجَبَ عَلَى كُلِّ ٱلْعَذَارَى أَنْ يُبْقِينَ سُرُجَهُنَّ مُضَاءَةً وَيَبْقَيْنَ مُتَنَبِّهَاتٍ إِلَى أَنْ يَأْتِيَ ٱلْعَرِيسُ .‏
