We have created many jinn and people who
are destined for the fire.
With hearts they do not use for comprehension.
Eyes they do not use for sight.
Ears that they do not use for hearing.
They are like cattle, no, even further astray.
These are the ones who are entirely heedless.

The most excellent and beautiful names belong to
Allah.
Use them to call on Him.
And keep away from those who abuse them.
They will be requited for that which they
do.
Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala mentions in this
verse, Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala mentions in
this verse, Beauty Of His Names And The
Perfection Of His Names That We Use To
Call Upon Him Subhanahu Wa'Ta'Ala And That
Is Every Single Name Of Allah Azza Wa
Jal, Every Single Attribute Of Allah Subhanahu Wa'Ta
'Ala, It Is Beautiful.
It Is Complete.
It Is Perfect In Every Way And In
Every Sense And Allah Azza Wa Jal To
Him Belongs The Most Beautiful Names.
They Are Perfect In Every Way.
They Are Complete In Terms Of Their Meaning
And They Are Things Or Names That We
Should Use In Order To Worship Allah Azza
Wa Jal With, In Our Duas For Example,
But Not Only That But In Terms Of
Our Aqidah, Our Belief That When We Understand
The Names Of Allah Subhanahu Wa'Ta'Ala, We
Then Understand Allah Azza Wa Jal And Through
That Understanding Of Allah Subhanahu Wa'Ta'Ala, We
Are Able To Worship Him Better And That
Is Why It Is One Of The Most
Common Things Or One Of The Most Common
Themes In The Quran, The Names Of Allah
Subhanahu Wa'Ta'Ala Because Through Those Names Of
Allah Azza Wa Jal, You Increase In Knowledge
Of Allah Subhanahu Wa'Ta'Ala.
So When You Know That Allah Azza Wa
Jal Is Al-Ghafoor, Allah Is Al-Raheem,
Allah Is Al-Kareem, Allah Is Al-Aleem,
Allah Is Al-Sami' Al-Baseer, Allah Is
Forgiving, Allah Is Kind, Allah Is Merciful, Allah
Is Generous, Allah Is Also All-Hearing, All
-Seeing, All-Knowing, Allah Is All-Wise.
Allah Azza Wa Jal Is Also Severe In
His Punishment.
These Names, These Attributes Of Allah Subhanahu Wa'Ta
'Ala, They Allow You To Understand And Have
Better Knowledge Of The One That Is Calling
Upon You To Worship Him Alone Jalla Fi
Ulaa And Through That Knowledge, You Increase, You
Increase In Iman, You Increase In Knowledge And
Awareness Of Allah Subhanahu Wa'Ta'Ala And You
Increase In Ibadah And So You Know That
Allah Is Forgiving.
So You'Re More Likely Therefore To Make
Tawbah To Allah Azza Wa Jal.
You Know That Allah Is Al-Razzaq, The
Provider, Al-Wahhab, The One Who Bestows.
So You'Re More Likely To Ask Of
Allah And Make Dua To Allah Azza Wa
Jal, You Know That Allah Azza Wa Jal
Is Someone Who Severe In His Punishment, Someone
Who Can Become Angry And One That Can
Become Angry, One That Is Severe In His
Punishment, Swift To Hold People To Account And
So Therefore You Have Divine Fear Of Allah
Azza Wa Jal, You Fear Allah'S Punishment, You
Fear Allah'S Wrath And His Anger Subhanahu Wa'Ta
'Ala And So You Call Allah Azza Wa
Jal, Fad'uhu Biha, Use The Names Of
Allah To Call Upon Him, Call Upon Him
In Terms Of In Terms Of The Knowledge
That You Have Of Them In Terms Of
The Worship That You Do In Terms Of
The Duas That You Make And So You
Use Those Names To Come Closer To Allah
Azza Wa Jal, As Is Mentioned In The
Famous Hadith Of Our Prophet Salallahu Alaihe Wasalam
That Allah Azza Wa Jal To Him Belongs
99 Names ...
Whosoever Encompasses Them Understands Them Comprehensively Then They
Will Enter Into Jannah Because If You Live
In Accordance With Those Names Of Allah Azza
Wa Jal Then You Cannot Do Anything Except
Worship Allah Azza Wa Jal, Believe In Allah
Alone, Do As Allah Commands, Stay Away From
That Which Allah Azza Wa Jal Prohibits.
...
And Then Allah Azza Wa Jal Says And
Stay Away Or Do Not Be From Those
Who Abuse The Names Of Allah Azza Wa
Jal, An-Nilhad Is To Reject Them Or
To Abuse Them As Is Mentioned By The
Translator Here Or To Distort Them In One
Way Or Another Either For Example By Giving
Those Names Of Allah To The Creation Of
Allah Azza Wa Jal, Giving Those Attributes Of
Allah To His Creation, Those Names To His
Creation As For Example, Some Of The Mushrikeen
Used To Do When They Would Name Their
God Names That Belong To Allah Azza Wa
Jal Like Al-Uzza And Al-Lat And
These Types Of Names That They Would Take
From The Attributes Of Allah And They Will
Place It Upon The Idols Or By Worshipping
Allah Azza Wa Jal, Giving Those Attributes To
Other Than Allah Subhanahu Wa'Ta'Ala.
So It'S Not Just The Name But It'S
The Power, The Ability To Other Than Allah.
This Thing Provides For Me, This Thing Can
Control Life And Death, This Thing Can Do
This And That And So You'Re Giving
What Are The Attributes Of Allah Alone To
Other Than Allah Subhanahu Wa'Ta'Ala And When
Those Attributes And Names Have A Dual Purpose
Meaning That They Can Be Used For Allah
And Used For The Creation Of Allah Azza
Wa Jal Also, For Example Forgiveness, That'S A
Human Trait As Well.
But It'S Also Something Which Allah Uses To
Describe Himself Forgiveness And Mercy And Kindness And
Gentleness And Hearing And Seeing These Attributes That
You Have In The Creation But Allah Azza
Wa Jal Also Uses Them To Describe Himself
Subhanahu Wa'Ta'Ala Then The Difference Between Them
Is Plain For Humans.
It Is Always In A Limited Human Way.
It Is Always Restricted By Human Nature By
Human Restrictions And It Is Done Like The
Way We See In The Way We Hear
It'S Restricted But When It Comes To Allah
Azza Wa Jal, It Is Perfect And Complete
In Every Single Way And There Is No
Deficiency In It.
There Is No Deficiency In It.
Sayyiduna Zawna Ma Kanu Ya'maloon Those People Who
Distort And Abuse And Reject The Names Of
Allah Subhanahu Wa'Ta'Ala Then They Will Be
The Ones Requited For That Which They Do.
And So For Example, As We Know In
Some Of The Narrations In The Books Of
Sirah, The Quraysh Said To The Prophet Salallahu
Alaihi Wasalam, We Are Not Familiar With This
Name Ar-Rahman Ar-Raheem In The Best
Manner, Bismillah Ar-Rahman Ar-Raheem.
We Don'T Know Who That Refers To.
We Only Know The Name Allah.
This Is A Type Of Rejection Of The
Names Of Allah Azza Wa Jal And Similar
To It Is What Unfortunately Many Muslims Fall
Into Jail When They Reject Or Distort Some
Of The Attributes Of Allah Azza Wa Jal,
When They Say That Allah Subhanahu Wa'Ta'Ala
Doesn'T Have Certain Attributes That He Describes Himself
With, Doesn'T Have Certain Names In That Sense
That He Describes Himself With Or That They
Are Simple Tags Or Labels That Don'T Have
Any Meaning That Is Associated With Them.
Allah Subhanahu Wa'Ta'Ala Then Says In Verse
181 وَمِمَّنْ خَلَقَنَا أُمَّتُ يَهْدُونَ بِالْحَقِّ وَبِهِ يَادِينُونَ
Amongst Those We Created A Group Of People
Who Guide With The Truth And They Act
Justly According To It.
Meaning That From Those People That Allah Azza
Wa Jal Has Placed Upon This Earth Because
Allah Azza Wa Jal Mentions The Majority, Who
Are The Majority?
The People Of The Fires We Mentioned The
Beginning Of This Episode.
They Will Be The People Destined For The
Fire But Also From That Which Allah Azza
Wa Jal Has Created From Those Whom Allah
Subhanahu Wa'Ta'Ala Has Created Are Those People
Who Are Upon The Truth And They Guide
With The Truth And They Call To The
Truth And They Act According To The Truth
And Those Are The People Of Islam, Those
Are The People Who Follow The Messenger Of
Allah Salallahu Alaihe Wasalam And In The Previous
Nations Those Who Followed Their Respective Prophets That
Allah Azza Wa Jal Sent To Them.
And So Allah Subhanahu Wa'Ta'Ala Describes These
People And What Is Interesting Here Is The
Description That They Are Given, The Caveat That
Is Placed In Their Description And That Is
يَهْدُونَ بِالْحَقِّ They Are People Who Guide With
The Truth And The Haqq Is That Which
Allah Azza Wa Jal Has Revealed, The Revelation
Of Allah Either In The Quran Or In
The Form Of The Sunnah Of Our Prophet
Salallahu Alaihe Wasalam, That Is The Haqq That
Is The Truth.
So These Are People Who When They Speak,
When They Act, When They Call, When They
Preach, When They Command The Good Or They
Forbid The Evil, They Do So With The
Truth And By The Truth And They Apply
It In Their Lives As Well.
These Are The People That Allah Azza Wa
Jal Has Praised And That Allah Subhanahu Wa'Ta
'Ala Will Honor In This Life And In
The Next.
Allah Azza Wa Jal Then Says In Verse
182 وَالَّذِينَ كَذَّبُوا بِآيَاتِنَا سَنَسْتَدْرِجُهُمْ مِنْ حَيْثُ لَا
يَعْلَمُونَ We Lead On Those, We Lead On
Those Who Reject Our Messages Step By Step
Without Them Realizing It.
التدرج What Is Being Mentioned Here, التدرج Is
To Do Something Gradually, Step By Step.
Allah Subhanahu Wa'Ta'Ala Is Saying That Those
People Who Reject Allah, They Reject The Message
Of Allah, They Reject The Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi
Wasallam, They Reject The Quran.
It Is From The Sunnah Of Allah, From
The Way That Allah Azza Wa Jal Deals
With These People That He Allows Them To
Fall Into The Misguidance Step By Step Meaning
That They Fall Further And Further Into Evil,
Into Oppression, Into Shirk, Into The Way That
They Obstruct Others From The Path Of Allah
Azza Wa Jal, It Is Done By تدرج
And That'S Something Which You See Clearly In
The Life Of The Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam,
From The Moment The Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam
Starts To Call To Allah Azza Wa Jal,
They Reject Him But Their Rejection Over Time
Becomes More Severe.
It Becomes More Violent.
It Becomes More Reprehensible Over Time.
They Don'T Stand Up The First Time That
The Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam Called Him To
Allah And Killed Him Immediately.
They Don'T Start Off With Murder And With
That Type Of Torture And Evil, But It
Is Something Which Over Time It Builds And
It Becomes Worse And Worse And We'Ve
Seen Examples Of This Also, Especially In This
Surah, Surah Al-A'Raf In The Story
Of Musa And Pharaoh, How Pharaoh Dealt With
Musa Alayhi Salam And With Bani Israel Over
Time It Becomes More And More Evil Until
At The Very End, His Determine Just To
Simply Wipe Them From The Face Of The
Earth.
And So Allah Subhanahu Wa'Ta'Ala Says سَنَسْتَدْرِجُهُمْ
مِنْ حَيْثُ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ We Will Give Them
Or We Will Lead Them On Step By
Step.
They Are Led On Step By Step In
Terms Of The Evil That They'Re Doing,
But Also Some Of The Scholars Of Tafsir
Have Mentioned That Allah Azawajal Also Allows Them
To Continue On That By Continuing To Provide
For Them.
So Allah Azawajal Will Give Them The Dunya,
He Will Give Them Wealth, He Will Give
Them Power, He Will Give Them Prestigious Influence
And They Think That As A Result Of
What They'Re Doing Is Actually Good That
They'Re Actually Achieving Something That They'Re
Being Successful And It Is Success In The
Parameters Of Their Understanding.
It Is Success According To What They Consider
And Deemed To Be Success.
But In The Parameters Set By Allah Azawajal
In The Scale Of Allah Subhanahu Wa'Ta'Ala,
It Is Not Success And That Is Why
It Is Important To Understand This Point That
Just Because You May See The Enemies Of
Islam Having The Dunya Doesn'T Mean That They
Have Achieved Success, Doesn'T Mean That Allah Azawajal
Is Pleased With Them And Just Because You
See The People Of Iman Often Being Poor
And Weak And Oppressed, Doesn'T Mean That Allah
Has Forsaken Them Or That Allah Doesn'T Love
Them Or They'Re Not Upon Good Because
Those Are Worthy Parameters That We Use To
Judge These Things.
But In The Quran And The Sunnah, We
Know That The True Parameter Is A Person'S
Taqwa, Is Allah'S Love For Them, Is The
Reward Of The Akhirah.
This Is The Way That Allah Azawajal Judges
Things As Opposed To The Way That Humans
Judge Them In This World.
Allah Subhanahu Wa'Ta'Ala Then Continues In Verse
183 And He Says I Will Give Them
Respite But My Plan Is Sure Meaning That
Allah Azawajal Will Give Them Respite Meaning That
Allah Azawajal Gives Them Time.
Allah Doesn'T Punish Them Immediately.
Allah Doesn'T Destroy Them Immediately But Rather They
Are Given Time And Through That Time They
Increase In Their Evil.
So When Musa Alayhi Salaam Comes With His
Message To Pharaoh And Pharaoh Rejects Him, Allah
Azawajal Doesn'T Punish Pharaoh Straight Away, Gives Him
Time.
It'S Probably A Number Of Years Before That
Incident When He Is Drowned And Likewise With
The Prophet Salallahu Alayhi Wasalam In Quraysh, His
Enemies Do Not Just Doubt With Immediately.
In Fact, The First Major Time That They
Doubt With Is Probably The Battle Of Badr.
That'S Like 14-15 Years After The First
Coming Of The Prophet Salallahu Alayhi Wasalam As
A Messenger Of Allah.
So Allah Azawajal Gives Them Time And He
Gives Them Respite To See How They Will
Act And So That They Cannot Claim That
They Weren'T Given The Opportunity To Change Their
Ways On Yawm Al-Qiyamah.
Allah Subhanahu Wa'Ta'Ala Then Says In Verse
184 Will
They Not Think Their Companion Is Not Mad
But It Is Rather He Is Someone Who
Is Giving A Clear Warning.
Allah Azawajal Is Saying Will They Not Think
And Not Realize That This Man Who Has
Come To Them The Prophet Salallahu Alayhi Wasalam
Isn'T Crazy.
They Know Him.
They Know His Background.
They Know His History.
They Know Him From When He Was A
Child.
They Know His Reality And That Is Not
A Person Who'S Crazy Or Mad Or A
Liar Or A Fabricator.
Will They Not Reflect Upon This Rather He
Is A Clear Caller To Allah Azawajal, A
Clear Warner And That Is Because The Quraysh
Knew Deep Down That The Prophet Salallahu Alayhi
Wasalam Wasn'T All Of Those Labels That They
Used To Place Upon Him That They Used
To Accuse Him Of.
He Wasn'T A Crazy Man.
He Wasn'T A Poet.
He Wasn'T A Madman.
He Wasn'T A Liar.
He Wasn'T A Fabricator.
He Wasn'T A Sorcerer Or A Fortune Teller.
All Of Those Things That They Used To
Claim About The Prophet Salallahu Alayhi Wasalam.
If They Stopped And They Thought About It
And They Were Honest With Themselves, They Would
Know Its Reality.
And That Is Why As Allah Azawajal Mentioned
At The Beginning Of The Verses That We
Covered Today.
They Don'T Use Their Hearts To Contemplate.
They Don'T Use Their Ears And Their Eyes
In The Way That They Should And That
Is Where Allah Subhanahu Wa'Ta'Ala Then Continues
In Verse 185 And He Says Have
They Not Contemplated The Realm Of The Heavens
And The Earth And All That Allah Has
Created And At The End Of Their Time
And That The End Of Their Time Might
Be Near.
What Other Revelation Will They Believe In If
They Do Not Believe In This?
Allah Subhanahu Wa'Ta'Ala Says Likewise, Just As
They Don'T Think About The Prophet Salallahu Alayhi
Wasalam And Reflect Upon Him And Who He
Is And What He'S Calling To, Then Likewise
Don'T They Look, Don'T They Contemplate, Don'T They
Think About The Malakut Al-Samawat Al-Ard,
The Realm And The Beauty And The Kingdom
Of The Heavens And The Earth.
And Everything That Allah Has Created Within It,
Everything That They Can See, Everything That They
Can Hear, Everything That They'Ve Been Told
Of And Made Aware Of.
And That Perhaps Their Time Is Close To
End.
Perhaps Yawm Al-Qiyamah Is Fast Coming Upon
Them.
What Will They Believe In Then If They
Do Not Believe In This?
If A Person Was To Stop And Reflect
On These Issues And Really Think About Them.
They Would Come To That Conclusion That Allah
Azzawajal Alone Is Worthy Of Worship, That Our
Time Upon This Life Is Limited, That There
Will Be Another Life That Is Permanent And
That It Is It Is Something Which Is
Everlasting And Therefore To Prepare For That Is
Something Which A Person Should Do In Order
For Themselves To Be Given Salvation.
But Those Who Don'T Do So, Those Who
Stay Away From This Or Heedless Of This
Then What Hope Is There For Them And
That Is What Allah Subhanahu Wa'Ta'Ala Says
In The Next Verse 186 No One Can
Guide Those Whom Allah Allows To Stray.
He Leaves Them Blundering About In Their Incidents.
If They Turn Away, They Don'T Use Their
Hearts, Their Ears, Their Senses, Their Eyes And
They Turn Away From The Messages And The
Signs Of Allah Azawajal And His Warnings And
His Reminders, Then There Is None That Can
Guide Them.
There Is No One That Can Help Them.
There Is No One That Can Aid Them.
But Rather They Will Be Left To Go
Astray In Their Insolence, In Their Oppression, In
The Evil That They Have Chosen For Themselves.
In The Last Verse That We Will Take
In Today'S Episode Verse 187, Allah Azawajal Then
Says They
Ask You About The Hour, When Will It
Happen?
Say My Lord Alone Has The Knowledge Of
It.
He Alone Will Reveal When Its Time Will
Come, A Time That Is Momentous In Both
The Heavens And The Earth.
All Too Suddenly Will Come Upon You.
They Ask You About It As If You
Were Eager To Find Out, Say Allah Alone
Has Knowledge Of When It Will Come Though
Most People Do Not Realize It.
Allah Azawajal Is Saying To The Prophet Salallahu
Alaihi Wasalam They Ask You Concerning Yawm Al
-Qiyamah, The Hour, When Will It Strike?
When Is Its Exact Time?
See To Them That Only Allah Knows This.
This Is From The Knowledge Of The Unseen
That Allah Gave To No One.
To Allah Belongs The Knowledge Of The Hour
Alone.
Allah Has Given Us Signs To Show That
It'S Coming Closer, Minor Signs, Major Signs, But
The Exact Time Of Its Striking That Is
Only Knowledge That Allah Azawajal Alone Has.
He Alone Will Reveal When Its Time Will
Come.
It Is A Momentous Time That Is Heavy
In The Heavens And The Earth.
It Will Only Come Upon You Suddenly.
And That Is Why When The Bedouin Man
Came To The Prophet Salallahu Alaihi Wasalam And
He Said O Messenger Of Allah When Is
The Hour?
The Prophet Salallahu Alaihi Wasalam Replied What Have
You Prepared For It?
That'S The Real Question.
You Don'T Know When It Will Be And
When It Will Strike, But Not Only That
But There Is A Lesser Yawm Al-Qiyamah,
A Lesser Day Of Judgment And Reckoning That
Will Strike Most Of Us Because The Vast
Majority Of People Will Not Be Alive On
The Day Of Yawm Al-Qiyamah When Its
Time Will Come, When That Trumpet Will Be
Blown.
The Vast Majority Of Humankind And The Jinn
Will Already Have Died Before Then.
So For Each And Every Single Person The
Time Of Death Is Also Their Qiyamah In
That Sense, In The Sense That They Left
This World.
There'S No More Action That They Can Perform,
No More Iman That They Can Increase In.
And So Allah Subhanahu Wa'Ta'Ala Tells Us
To Prepare For That Time As Opposed To
Being Worried About When It Will Be And
So The Believer Is More Worried About When
Death Can Strike, When That Moment Will Come
As Opposed To Trying To Determine Exactly When
Yawm Al-Qiyamah Will Occur.
Yas'aloonaka Ka'annaka Hafiyyun Anha Allah Azawajal
Says That They Ask You As If They
Were As If You Are Eager To Find
Out Or As If You Are The One
Who Is In Charge Of This So That
You Have This Knowledge And That Isn'T Something
Which Was Given Neither To Any Prophet Nor
To Any Angel Nor To Any Righteous Person
Who Is Qara, It Is Knowledge That Allah
Azawajal Has Alone And That Is Why Allah
Subhanahu Wa'Ta'Ala Concludes This Verse By Saying
Qul Inna Ma'ilmuha Ainda Allah Say That
His Knowledge Is With Allah Alone.
Walakinna Akthar An-Nasi La Ya'lamoon But
The Vast Majority Of People Do Not Know.
And Inshallah Ta'Ala With That We Come
To The End Of Today'S Episode.
Barakallahu Feekum Wa Salaamu Ala Nabiyyina Muhammadin Wa
