Malik Muhammad sallahu wa barakato Smilla Rahmanir Rahim Al hamdu lillahi rabbil aalameen On October 13 What are we doing the Illa Allah Ali Minashi to Allah.

00:00:34--> 00:01:22

So Hamdulillah we have been blessed with the opportunity of witnessing or the month of Ramadan. And as we've been doing that for the last few years, we in the month of Ramadan, take a work of Tafseer and read through it with some commentary. And the book that we started two years ago was the book of the CEO of a chef of the romantic Nasser Saudi. We died in the year 1376 of the Hydra approximately 1956 57 of the Gregorian calendar Rahim Allah Tala material was Yeah, so we started this Tafseer two years ago and this year inshallah Tada we're going to continue with the Tafseer and we have the beginning of the 17 jewels of the Quran so Surah Colombia, the beginning of the 17th jewels of the

00:01:25--> 00:01:29

are moving laying him and showing up on your Raji.

a question Miss LUCAM effort tuna Say Hello

00:02:21--> 00:02:31

to those who, with Hodge distracted the wrongdoers whisper to one another in secret. Is this man, not a human being like yourselves? Will you then follow his magic with your eyes wide open?

00:02:32--> 00:02:35

Or be a lemon cola for some

00:02:36--> 00:02:45

evil? Well, who was semi early? He said, My Lord knows every word spoken in the heavens and on earth for us all hearing all knowing.

00:02:47--> 00:02:52

This is an expression of amazement at people's attitude and at the fact that no no reminder moves them

00:02:53--> 00:03:29

and they do not pay any attention to any one for the reckoning has drawn near and the recoil for their deeds both good and bad, is at hand. But they are turning away in heedlessness paying no attention to the purpose for which they were created and ignoring that of which they have been worn. As if they were created for this world. And were born merely to enjoy physical pleasures that they're in. Allah keep renewing the reminder and lucky remote and renewing them reminder and exhortation to them. But they persist in their in their negligence and turning away. Hence he says no fresh revelation comes to them from the Lord reminding them of that which will benefit them and

00:03:29--> 00:04:07

urging them to do it and remind them of that which will harm them and warning them against it. Also Rahim Allah Tada at the beginning of Saudi Arabia he says that Allah azza wa jal is speaking about the situation and the nature of people that Allah azza wa jal does seem to them that human Fiamma is fast approaching. The earth is coming to an end the judgment and accounting before Allah azza wa jal is drawing near. And the vast majority of people are negligent, heedless, don't care, don't bother don't have any concern. And Allah azza wa jal is saying that this is what happens when people are in a state of disbelief, and the state of heedlessness. And the further and further a person goes into

00:04:07--> 00:04:22

the state of disbelief, despite the greatest signs that come to them and the biggest signs of Allah azza wa jal shows to them. Because of the level of heedlessness, it was very difficult for them to be able to see those signs and to be able to take benefit from them. But they listened to it

00:04:23--> 00:04:54

in a manner of listening that establishes proof against them, and you recall and ridicule with heart distracted, that is their hearts are heedless, and turn away distracted by worldly concern and it'll pursuits. They are distracted by physical pleasure, striving for false purposes and ridiculing the message, even though what they should do is something other than that. Their heart should be focused on the commands and prohibitions of Allah. And they should listen to the message in such a way that they understand the intended meaning. And they should strive physically to worship their Lord, which is the purpose for which they were created, and they should be mindful of the resurrection,

00:04:54--> 00:04:59

Reckoning and recompense. By doing that. They will attain what they aspire for.

00:05:00--> 00:05:35

airfares will be put in order and their deeds would become righteous. Allah subhanaw taala describes these people in the disbelievers as people who listen, but LAHIA 10 Kulu boom, their hearts are distracted, the heedless, which is a very important principle here and that is that if a person comes to the Quran with a busy mind or neglectful mind or heat this mind because there's many Muslims who hear the Quran many Muslims will hear the recitation of the Quran they read the translation and so on. But because their mind is heedless, and the Eman is weak, the benefit that they take from it is very little, as opposed to someone who clears their mind and focuses on the

00:05:35--> 00:06:11

Quran, and as the intention that they want to benefit from it. They take from the Quran, a great deal of benefit. There are two scholarly opinions. There are two scholarly views concerning the meaning of the words, the day of reckoning for humankind has drawn near. The first view is that the OMA is the last of nations and its Messenger sallallahu alayhi. wasallam is the final messenger and the owl will come upon his own. So the reckoning has drawn near to them in contrast to the nations that came before them. Because the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, I in the hour have been sent like these two Muslim, and he held up his two fingers together, the forefinger and the one next

00:06:11--> 00:06:45

to it. The second view is that what is meant by the approach of the reckoning is death. Because when a person dies, his reckoning has begun, and he has entered the realm of recruiting for deeds. This is an expression of amazement, all those who are negligent and turn away not knowing when death will strike, morning or evening. This how all people are, except those on whom Allah has bestowed His grace. So they prepare for death and what comes after it. Allah subhanaw taala speaks about human to Yama coming. And the scholars he says the author says I'm gonna try to have two positions amongst the scholars with Tafseer. The first is that it's referring to the Ummah and its closeness to human

00:06:45--> 00:07:23

piano, because as we know, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said that I was sent with our like this and he put his two fingers together his index finger and his next finger. And also because we know that from the first of the signs of human piano, is the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was coming. And so the the time of Yama, Yama is clear. That's one of the positions of Terra Bella Nassif, he said, boom, the time is drawing close, meaning normal piano This is the final OMA normal profits, normal messengers normal revelations now what is only awaiting for human piano. That's the first position. The second position is that it refers to something which is even closer, and that is

00:07:23--> 00:08:00

every single person their own death. Because when your death comes to you, that is essentially your piano because there's no more opportunity for good deeds for Eman for Toba. Everything that you have, essentially more or less finishes at the time of death. That's called the author says both of these two opinions you will find Intersil and what he means by that is both are valid. Both are valid positions of the seal because they don't contradict with one another. So yes, your death is Yokoyama and your monkey Yama is also very close. Then Allah tells us what the disbelievers and wrongdoers spoke of when they whispered to one another, by way of stubbornness opposing the truth

00:08:00--> 00:08:31

with falsehood. They converse with one another and reached an agreement among themselves that they would say concerning the messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, he is a human being like you. So what makes him better than you and what makes him special. If any of you were to make a claim like this, like his, his word would be equal to his, but he wants to make himself superior to you and establish himself as a leader among you. So do not OBEY Him and do not believe him. He's a magician, and what he has brought up the Quran is magic. So keep away from him and deter other people from speaking to him and say, will you then follow his magic with your eyes wide open? They proud of

00:08:31--> 00:09:10

this, even though they knew that he was indeed the messenger of allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam based on what they had seen of clear signs that like which no one else had ever had ever seen. But what made what made them do what made them do that was the fact that they were doing wrongdoers and stubborn, Allah subhanaw taala and encompassed with his knowledge or what they are that they said in private, and he will equip them for it. Hence, he said, he said, My Lord knows every word spoken in private and in public, in the heavens and on earth, that is in all regions thereof, for us all hearing and hears all voices in all different languages, calling out for all kinds of different

00:09:10--> 00:09:15

needs, all knowing, and he and he knows what is in people's hearts, and what is yet more hidden.

00:09:16--> 00:09:19

00:09:30--> 00:09:41

one who said Nay, these are jumbled, confusing dreams. Now he has fabricated a name He is a poet. So let him bring us a sign such as the early messengers were sent with

00:09:45--> 00:09:45

Kabbalah

00:09:47--> 00:09:49

creating a lacuna.

00:09:50--> 00:09:52

FL whom you mean

00:09:53--> 00:09:59

not one of the city's whom we destroyed believed, even though we showed them signs with these people don't believe here Allah

00:10:00--> 00:10:34

Hang on water either refers to the lies fabricated by those who disbelieved in Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and what he brought up the Holy Quran telling us that they called him a fool and made other false accusations against him. Sometimes they said, these are jumbles confusing dreams, but the words of one who moments in his sleep and does not realize what he is saying. Sometimes they said he has fabricated it, and made it up by himself. And sometimes they said, they said that he was a poet. And what he brought was poetry was the data in this verse, verse number five of the Quran uses one of the common methods of eloquence that you find in the book of Allah azza wa jal. The

00:10:34--> 00:11:05

Arabic language is a very eloquent language. And one of the things that the Arabic language does is that it gives you a mental image, through its words, and that's why the Arabs are known for their poetry, that poetry would often bring to a mental image and Allah azza wa jal often does this throughout the Quran. Whereas if you were to look at the exact words, that Allah using the art that Allah Subhana Allah uses in the Arabic language, and the meanings and the eloquence behind them, you almost have like a mental image of what's taking place. And this is a good example of this. In verse number five, Allah azza wa jal mentions the word Bell, how many times

00:11:06--> 00:11:09

was number five? How many times is the word Bell mentioned?

00:11:11--> 00:11:59

When an author Halab belif, Tara Bell, who was shot three times it is mentioned the word Bell, and he means ne ne ne, what are they saying? They're saying that this man, the Prophet, sallAllahu alayhi wa sallam isn't a messenger of Allah, what He bought isn't the Quran, it's not the speech of Allah. Okay, what is it then? This is what Allah azza wa jal is referring to here. Could they agree upon what it is? No. They themselves are so confused as to what he had bought and who he was that they differ. So some of them said a glass lamb. They said that it is jumbled, confusing dreams are the set if Tara that has just come with some fabricated lies, others said Shari, he's a poet. So

00:11:59--> 00:12:33

what Allah azza wa jal is showing us here is that even though the disbelieved amongst themselves, they couldn't unite upon a single thing. Because deep down they know that it's the truth. So one person saying no is poetry the other one saying, Oh, he's crazy that don't say no, he's a fortune teller that don't say no, he's seen crazy dreams, each one of them is bringing something else. And Allah subhanaw taala uses the word bell to show that even amongst themselves, they will disunited in that regard. And that was what made them weak, as opposed to the companions of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam who, despite the small number were united, United upon their belief

00:12:33--> 00:13:04

united in the Eman thereafter, either. Anyone who has the slightest knowledge of the reality of the messenger, sallallahu alayhi, wasallam. And examines this book that he bought will be certain, beyond any shadow of a doubt, that is the best and most sublime of speech, and that is from Allah, for no, no human could ever produce anything like even part of it, as Allah challenged his enemies to do and thereby prove that it was not from him, even though they had a motive to prove that it was not from him, and they harbored enmity towards it, they were not able to produce produce something like it,

00:13:05--> 00:13:37

to produce something like to prove that it was not from him. And they were well aware of that. Otherwise, what made them strive so hard, what gave them some sleepless nights and rendered them speechless, except to shoot then nothing can resist. Rather, they said these words about the prophets of Allah and Islam as they did not believe in him, so as to turn people away from him, who did not know Him. The Quran is the greatest of eternal science that points to the soundness of the message, bought by the messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and his truth, truthfulness, and is sufficient. And that's what the author is saying. author is saying that because the Quran is so

00:13:37--> 00:14:11

clear in its truth, so clear, and it's been powerful in its message, that everyone knows the truth and knows that it is from Allah subhanaw taala. The Quran had to work so hard in order to dispute that, because if it was clearly the ramblings of a madman, or poetry or something else, you wouldn't have to work so hot, very obvious. Everyone can recognize a queasy man, someone has to come into the machine now and start speaking in a crazy way, doesn't require lots of proof doesn't need you to have people coming together. It's clear the man's crazy, someone else comes with something that doesn't seem to make any sense that people are going to be skeptical naturally. But someone comes

00:14:11--> 00:14:45

with something that sounds like it's the truth. Someone comes with something that makes sense. And now you have to try to oppose that. That's where you have to put in the time and effort. And therefore when it's the message of Allah azza wa jal, which is all truthfulness, all clear all guidance. That is where the coalition to work so hard, because everyone around them could see and everyone was attracted to it. So what they're doing is working overtime, overtime overtime in order to try to take away some of the impact that the Quran was having upon them. Whoever looks for proof other than or demand some other sign is ignorant and he's being unfair. He is more like those

00:14:45--> 00:15:00

stubborn people who rejected the Quran and demanded other signs of their own choosing which would be the most harmful thing for them and would bring them no benefits at all. Because it was if their aim was to know the truth on the basis of proof, the proof was already tested.

00:15:00--> 00:15:31

publish without what they weren't demanding of science. But if their aim was to outwit the prophets of Allah and sell them and find excuses for themselves for not believing, if they're in demand for a particular sign was not met, then in that case, even if they were given what the demands of science, they definitely would not believe. Even if every sign were to come to them, they would not believe until they saw for themselves the painful punishment. And this is one of the tropes of shippon one of the traps of Shavon is that Allah azza wa jal gives to them a sign, they say no, but that's not the sign we wanted. We want a different sign. Like they're both signs and they're from Allah Azza

00:15:31--> 00:16:00

wa, JAL was a different number. But that's not the sign I want to I want a different sign. And so this is one of the ways that shape one, please, with people, and he does the same with Muslims as well. When someone comes and says, Why have you given the cat? No, no, we're gonna give us a cat. I need to do this first. So what shaytan? Does, he takes your attention away from one thing, go to another thing, go to the second thing, you'll go to the third thing and this is what he does. He plays with people like this. And that's essentially what the police are doing. They have a sign the notes from Allah. Yep, that's one of the sign I asked for? Does it make a difference? You asked for

00:16:00--> 00:16:35

this formula. It's from Allah. No, but that's not the sign I want I want a different sign. And this is something which you find commonly that Allah azza wa jal mentions about the nations of the past throughout the Quran. Hence, Allah tells us that they said, so let him bring us a sign such as the earlier messengers were sent with that is, like the she come of Saudi, and the staff of Musa and so on, not one of the cities whom we destroyed, believed in the signs that they demanded Allah's way of dealing with people is that if anyone demand a sign and is granted to him, but he does not believe, then the punishment will be Hastin. For him, the earlier generation did not believe in those signs.

00:16:35--> 00:17:08

So will these people believe in them? What makes them better? What makes them better than those earlier generations? What good virtue do they possess that would make them believe when these signs appear? This appears in the form of a question will these people don't believe, but what is meant is denial or negation? In other words, they will never believe meaning that they see that we want these signs. They don't want the signs that Allah gave to them. They want other signs. Allah azza wa jal is saying that people will given those signs that they didn't believe Allah gave those similar signs to other nations they didn't believe. So what makes you think that you're going to believe and so

00:17:08--> 00:17:23

these issues are not necessarily because they want to believe or they want to have Iman? They're just distractions from the real issue. They're just ways that Shavon comes and tries to make people become distracted from the real issue at hand, which is to believe in Allah azza wa jal, when

00:17:25--> 00:17:33

uncover like deja vu he led him to lead victory

00:17:34--> 00:17:58

to lead our lampoon, we did not send we did not send before you Oh, Muhammad sallallahu alayhi salam, any but men to whom We gave revelation, so people ask those who have knowledge if you do not know. Well Magi now I'm just colonna farmer one man can call the Dean we did not give them bodies that needed no food, nor were they immortal

00:17:59--> 00:18:39

Masada Connor hormonal was definitely NJ now on woman Asha Lachenal animosity thing. Then we fulfilled our promise to them, and we saved them, and those whom we will and we destroyed those who transgress our bounds. This is a response to the species to the species argument of those who disbelieved in the messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam and said, Why is he not an angel? Who does not need food or drink and does not engage in business in the marketplace? Why is he not immoral? As he was not like that? They thought that this indicated that he was not a messenger SallAllahu sallam. This species argument is still used by those who disbelieve in the messengers. They are all

00:18:39--> 00:19:13

alike in their disbelief. They are, they are alike in their thinking. Allah subhana wa Tada responded to this argument from those who disbelieved in the messenger sallallahu alayhi wasallam. Although they accepted messengers who came before him, even if they believed only an Abraham Ali salaam, whose prophethood was accepted by all groups, including the polytheists, who claimed to be following his path and religion by noting that the messengers who came before Muhammad salallahu Alaihe Salam were all human beings who a food walked about in the marketplaces, and were subjected to everything that human beings go through, such as death, and then like, Allah sent them to their

00:19:13--> 00:19:46

peoples and nations, and some believed in them, whereas others disbelief, and Allah fulfilled his promise to them, of saving and blessing them in their followers, and destroying the transgressors who rejected them. Lazarus is the author of matado, seeing that many of these demons of the Quraysh were nonsensical, didn't make any sense. We're not logical. Here they are saying to the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, surely you should be an angel. If Allah was going to send a prophet, you should have been an angel. Why did he send you? At the same time though there are no issue accepting that Ibrahim Ali Salam was a messenger of Allah, that he was human that he could eat that

00:19:46--> 00:19:59

he could drink, no problem. But now when it comes to the prophets of Allah wanting to send them, they have an issue with this. And again, it's just a distraction. It's just their way of finding a reason and an excuse not to believe in Him and to accept the message of

00:20:00--> 00:20:26

Oh, he. And so here the author is saying, look at how this disbelief when it comes to these arguments. None of them ever make sense. They don't stack up because the double standards themselves themselves, they can't make them work. The why in the case of Muhammad sallallahu alayhi salam do they reject his message on the basis of false arguments, when the same argument could be made with regard to his federal messengers in whom, who, in whom those those who reject Muhammad believe

00:20:27--> 00:21:02

this argument is very clear and binding, if they accept the human messenger, but they will not accept a nonhuman Messenger, then the argument is false is flawed, and they themselves have shown it to be flawed when they admitted that it was so. And when they're contradicting themselves in the argument, if based on this argument, they then denied the prophethood of any human being at all, and said that no one could be a prophet unless he was a murderer and did not eat, eat food. Then Allah subhanaw taala has answered the specious argument in the verse in which he says, they say, why has an angel not been sent down to him, if, if we did send down an angel, that would be the end of the

00:21:02--> 00:21:35

matter, and they would be given no respite. And if we had appointed as messenger, an angel, we would have made him appear as a man. And thus, we would only have confused them in the same way, as they are now convincing themselves meaning that if angels were to be sent down, then they would behave like angels, they would worship like angels, they would do as angels do. And then we as humans would have to take them as our role models, we'd have to behave like them, we'd have to act like them, we'd have to worship like them. And that's not something which humans have the ability to do. And that's what matters. We did the same, and this was from Switzerland arm, if the angels would have

00:21:35--> 00:21:36

come down,

00:21:37--> 00:22:09

that would have been the end of the matter, you don't have an excuse. You can't ask for angels, then when the angels come and say, Look, we can't do what the angels do. We're not angels. And that's why it's a flawed argument doesn't work both ways. Moreover, ordinary human beings are not able to receive revelation directly from the angels say, If there had been angels on earth, walking about and settled there in, we will surely have sent down to them from heaven, and Angel as a messenger. If you still have any doubts, and do not know about the condition of the earlier messengers, then, as those who have knowledge of the earliest scriptures, such as the people of the Torah and the

00:22:09--> 00:22:18

Gospel, and they will tell you what they know that the messengers were all human like those to whom they were sent Lara's origin and this verse when He says, First,

00:22:19--> 00:22:53

ask the people of knowledge here is referring to the people of knowledge from the previous religions, meaning in your religion in your scriptures, did you ever find that the prophets and messengers were angels over the humans, and they will tell you that Allah always say humans to humans, from the time of Adam, until our messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, but this verse also is often used as the evidence to ask people of knowledge in issues in which they are experts. So you go to the Muslim scholar in issues of Islam, and you go to someone whose specialty is something else in that field, like medicine or engineering, whatever else, but primarily speaking about the people

00:22:53--> 00:23:28

of knowledge. So whether that be Muslim scholars, or in this particular context when it's needed, and only when it's needed, the experts in those other religions just to prove this point of though hate. However, it is often used, as we said today by many scholars to show the principle that you ask people of knowledge in issues that you have no knowledge of, although the particular reason for revelation of this verse had to do with asking the people of the book about the earlier messengers, as they will people have knowledge is general in meaning and applies to other matters of religion, both basic and minor. If a person does not have any knowledge of such an issue, he may ask one who

00:23:28--> 00:23:44

doesn't know it? So is, is a command to learn and ask people of knowledge, we are only instructed to ask them because they are obliged to teach and answer questions about what they know. Because we are specifically instructed to ask those who have knowledge, this implies that is not allowed to ask questions

00:23:45--> 00:23:58

of one who is known to be ignorant and have and to have no knowledge and is prohibited for one who had no knowledge to give answers. This verse also indicates that there are no prophet among women, neither Meriam nor anyone else, because Allah says,

00:23:59--> 00:24:24

Any any but men to whom We gave Revelation, the Lord's will cause them to jail in the jail and nor am we only sent men to whom We gave revelation, even though there were a very few scholars very few in the history of Islam that said, that Allah did send women as messengers. You have a handful, who had this but the position of the vast majority of scholars of Islam, from the time of the companions until today, is that Allah azza wa jal only ever sent men as Prophets and Messengers.

00:24:25--> 00:24:26

Now according to

00:24:28--> 00:24:50

Elon, you can get the crow comb, FL ta you alone, We have sent down to you oh people, a book in which there is honor for you. If you follow his teachings, Will you not then understand, We have sent down to you or people to, to whom Muhammad even Abdulmutallab even. Even Abdullah bin Abdul Muttalib sallallahu alayhi wa sallam polyp,

00:24:51--> 00:24:59

in Abdulmutallab Salallahu Alaihe Salam was sent a noble book and a clear Quran in which there is an honor for you

00:25:00--> 00:25:38

There is renowned, renowned pride and lofty status. If you pay heed to what it contains of true stories, then believe in it, comply with it, comply with comply with what it enjoys and avoid what it forbids. Then you will rise in status and become significant Lara's wisdom says that the Kuranda reveal down truth in it is your liquor the word vicar, literally the Arabic language means mentioned or reminder, in this Quran Israel mentioned or your reminder, even ambassador, the Allah and Roma has the tafseer that the author chose here and the translator chose, and that is that he means shut off. Mean shut off. It means your honor, your status means that if you follow what's in the Quran,

00:25:38--> 00:26:14

they will honor you raise you up to the status give you renown, and other scholars said that it contains scholars from the tambourine. In that FC they said they were the Korea means that we contains your message contains your religion, your guidance and so on. And both of those who are similar in meaning, because you need to follow the guidance and the teachings in order to have an attained the status and honor that Allah azza wa jal gives to the believers, when you not then understand what will benefit you and what will harm you. How can you not accept it, and not strive to adhere to that in which is your known renown and honor in this world and in the Hereafter, if you

00:26:14--> 00:26:49

had any understanding, you would have followed this path, but because you did not follow it, and you follow other paths instead, that will lead you to humiliation and to low status and misery in this world and the Hereafter, is known that you have no sound reasoning or understanding. This first is this verse is confirmed by what happened in reality, those who will who believed in the messenger sallallahu alayhi salam, and follow the teachings of the Quran, namely the Sahaba and those who came after them attain honor, high status and great renown, and were elevated to a higher position than kings, as is well known to everyone is also known. What happened to those who did not adhere to this

00:26:49--> 00:27:26

Quran and were not guided by it and did not purify themselves on the basis thereof. They were bought low, despise tainted enriched, there is no way to attain happiness in this world or the hereafter, except by adhering to the teachings of the Quran, this paragraph here should be highlighted. Very important. This paragraph is something which we often forget what the author is saying Rahim Allah Tala is, you look at the Companions amazing successful in every way, Allah azza wa jal honor them in every way. What is the one thing that they did to achieve that status, the honor, their reputation that even today 1400 years later, we still remember them. We still mentioned them, we still learn

00:27:26--> 00:28:01

from them. So benefit from them, is because they hold on to the book of Allah azza wa jal, the Quran, they were very close to the book of Allah subhanaw taala. Every single day the Quran was what dominated their lives, the Quran is all that they did. And that is why some of the scholars were of the position that if you spent your whole life dedicated to the Quran, it wouldn't be a life that was wasted. And there was others would spend their lives working for Islam, not busy buying selling trade business working for Islam. And on their deathbeds, they would say that if we had one regret is that we didn't spend more time studying the Quran. And the busy, they're studying, they're

00:28:01--> 00:28:34

teaching, but maybe they're doing Hadith and they're doing and they're doing other sciences which are important, but they would say the Quran the Quran and that is why as we know, in this month of Ramadan, many of the self deposition was there, all you do is focus on the book of Allah subhanaw taala focus on the Quran, the Quran and today it's a shame that most Muslims won't even read the translation, let alone the book of tafseer that we've become so distanced from the Quran. And the Quran is something which is read here and there or if it's read is read with very little understanding or meaning or study, whereas the scholars dedicated their whole lives to the book of

00:28:34--> 00:29:11

Allah subhanaw taala. I want to recommend a salami Rahim Allah from the great scholars of the Tabea in from the students of the companion study with the likes of Ali, an Earth man and Xena Ben Sabbath and others. He said that I heard of Muhammad the Allah one, say the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam say in their famous Hadith, Pharaoh coming to Andaman Quran, Allah Allah made the best of you are those who study and teach the Quran. He said that hadith made me sit here because he taught Quran his whole life, 60 years dedicated teaching so that hadith is what made me say a teaching, and he will just teach people to read the Quran. Read the Quran, recite the Quran, from that small thing

00:29:11--> 00:29:49

or that small act of just teaching young children people to read the Quran. They will dedicate themselves decades to this. And there are numerous scholars if you look at their biographies after they passed away, and people see them in dreams. And they asked what is the one deed that Allah azza wa jal saw from you that gave you salvation? Many of them would say it's because I taught someone something about the Quran. I told that child how to read the Quran, I connected someone to the book of Allah subhanaw taala. And so this is something which we can never emphasize enough and it's something which we should never forget that the book of Allah azza wa jal is what brings us honor in

00:29:49--> 00:29:54

our dunya in our lives, in our businesses, in our families, and obviously in our Africa.

00:29:56--> 00:29:56

What can cause

00:30:03--> 00:30:27

00:30:29--> 00:30:32

refer to the Walmart keynote Kamala

almost kini Kamala Lacan, loon.

00:30:38--> 00:30:56

You're not flee, go back to your comfort and your dwellings so that you may be sought out to give help and advice to others. Kahlua Ilana in common volley meaning they said Woe to us. We were indeed wrongdoers.

00:30:57--> 00:30:59

Tilka our home had

00:31:00--> 00:31:40

Helsley done home ed in in that crime there did not cease until we moved them down and left them lifeless. Here Allah warns these wrongdoers who believed in the messenger so who disbelieved in the messenger salAllahu alayhi salam of what happened to previous nations who disbelieved in other messengers, how many cities that were given to wrongdoing, have we utterly destroyed, that is eradicated completely and raise the other people in their stead when these people who were destroyed realize that their punishment of the punishment of Allah was imminent, and has started to befall them, and that it was not possible for them to go back, and there was no way they could flee, they

00:31:40--> 00:32:19

began to stomp their feet in an expression of regret and anguish, lamenting, limiting what they had done, and trying to escape the punishment. Therefore, it was said to them by way of mockery as part of the punishment, do not flee, go back to your comfort, and your dwellings. So that you may be sought out to give help and advice to others, that is stamping your free fee and expressing regret will not benefit you. But if you think you can, then go back to your pleasures and desirable things, to find dwellings and your world that deceived you and distracted you until the punishment of Allah came to you, that you may so that you may establish yourself again there and indulge in pleasures

00:32:20--> 00:32:55

and feel content and respected in your dwellings. Perhaps you will be as you were before, and and people come to you seeking help with regard to worldly affairs, as happened before, but there is no way that can happen. How could they go back to that, when that time is not over and the punishment and divine wrath have started before then there was the honor and glory have vanished and all that is left is regret and limitation. So from the punishments that Allah azza wa jal will give to people on humans piano is that he will make them understand that they had so many chances that they missed, reminders came to them Prophets was sent to them revelation was given to them. And they ignored that

00:32:55--> 00:33:31

every stage and the excuses that they used Allah azza wa jal will use that against him then on your 1pm and he will say you claim that you will never be resurrected. Now what you claim as Allah is really saying here that you're just going to enjoy the dunya not gonna enjoy the dunya gonna enjoy the things that you accumulated in the world. And so this is from the punishment that they had that Allah azza wa jal stresses upon them. So not only are they are they being punished physically, but also they're being told and reminded that they had so many opportunities to believe, and they refused to take those opportunities. And they said, well, to us, we were in the wrongdoers, and that

00:33:31--> 00:33:53

crime did not cease. That is the cry of will do and regret admitting the wrongdoing and acknowledging that Allah was just in what he sent upon them, did not cease until we moved them down and left him life until we until we mowed them down and left them lifeless. That is like crops that are Moon down and brought low. Thus they were felled.

00:33:54--> 00:34:05

And their movements cease and their voices were silenced. So we were all you who are addressed here, of persisting in rejection of the noblest of messengers sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, let's there before you will be filled them.

00:34:06--> 00:34:07

Well, now Hala coin has

00:34:10--> 00:34:18

been a Humala IV and we have not created the heavens and the earth and all that is between them in vain. Lo Aradhana

00:34:20--> 00:34:27

Duffy the law one letter has now been done. Let the hot now homie

00:34:29--> 00:35:00

Kuhn, really finally, if we had wanted to take, take a pastime, we could have done we could have done so if we were to do such a thing. Here Allah subhanaw taala tells us that he did not create the heavens and the earth without purpose or for no reason, rather, who created them in truth and for the for the for the truth, so that people may find proof in them in that and that He is the Almighty Creator wise controller, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful to whom belong or attributes of perfection to only be appraised and you'll

00:35:00--> 00:35:27

worry, whose word is true and whose messengers are truthful in what they wait, they tell, the one who's able to create the heavens and the earth despite their immense vastness is also able to recreate bodies after their death, so that he may require the doer of good for his good deeds and the do have evil for his evil deeds. If we had wanted to take a pastime, this is said only for argument's sake because it's impossible. Impossible. Why?

00:35:29--> 00:35:30

Is it impossible?

00:35:31--> 00:35:41

Because it's not befitting for Allah azza wa jal that he wastes his time that he takes the past time that he does these types that are not befitting for Allah subhanaw taala.

00:35:42--> 00:35:57

We could have done so if we were to do such a thing. And we would not have disclosed to you what would contain a vanity and frivolity because that is shortcoming and a negative reflection on us. And we would not want to show it to you one of the common

00:35:58--> 00:36:35

one of the common arguments made about there being no God or that there's no God. You don't need to worship God God doesn't exist and so on, is that there's nothing in this world except play in jest. And that Allah subhanaw taala liquidity them without any purpose. Allah azza wa jal is saying that if we want you to take a pastime, or to take something for Justin play, surely what Allah azza wa jal has with himself in the akhira from all of the rewards of the blessings and the and the enjoyment of the of the Akira and Paradise is far better than this making this something as a pastime, because Allah azza wa jal has promised us all of these things in Jannah, what gender

00:36:35--> 00:37:10

contains of of delights, and pleasures and rewards is far greater than everything in the dunya than the Prophet Chase and ALLAH and he was salam. That just the stick the police that the stick on the ground holds for one of you is better than everything in Ghana is better than everything in the dunya just one place with a stick on the ground of Jana goes is better than everything in the dunya. So surely if Allah azza wa jal wanted to take something as a pastime, if there was no purpose for this, if Allah just created this for no reason, Allah azza wa jal has far better things in Ophira. First, Islam the Fit befitting for Allah subhanaw taala to do so. And number two, therefore, that

00:37:10--> 00:37:36

Allah azza wa jal didn't, didn't create the heavens and the earth for no purpose and without any cause. The real purpose behind the heavens and the earth, which are always visible to you cannot be vain or frivolous. All of this is said by way of argument and address to small minded people and is aimed at convincing them by all possible means, glory be to the Most Forbearing most merciful, who is most wise and deals with all matters appropriately.

00:37:37--> 00:38:27

But luckily for Bill have parallel belt really failed fair there are men who fail either who was on your board, what a cool way. Mantis ephone name rather, we heard the truth against falsehood, and it crushes it, we're upon it purchase. Woe to you for what you ascribe falsely to Allah. What a woman this summer where do you will out woman who lies tech build on on my bed that he realized that you rune To Him belongs all those who are in the heavens and on earth, and those who are with him are not too proud to worship Him more. Do they ever grow weary? You said behold I Leila one Hello live to Rouen they glorify Him night and day without flagging. Here Allah subhanahu wata Allah tells us

00:38:27--> 00:38:54

that he guarantees to show the truth to be true and to show the falsehood to be false, any falsehood that is presented or defended by anyone, Allah was sent down truth, knowledge and explanation that will destroy it. So that it will diminish and it will become apparent to everyone that that is false, whereupon parishes, that is it diminishes and disappears. This is general in meaning applies to all religion matters, no support or false or presents a special argument basing it on reason

00:38:55--> 00:38:55

as

00:38:56--> 00:39:17

presented as specious argument basing your on reason or on text, supporting falsehood or rejecting truth, but there is definitely evidence from Allah, definitive evidence from Allah, that that is based on reason or on text that will defeat the the first argument and suppress it. Thus the falseness thereof will become clear to everyone.

00:39:18--> 00:39:55

That becomes clearer by examining these issues one by one, and you will also find that this is the case well to you, who ascribe to Allah that which is not befitting to him, such as saying that he has a child or wife, rivals or partners, all that you will gain from from that is well regret and loss. There is no benefit for you in what you say. And you will you will not get the return for which you hope and strive or you will get is the opposite of what you are seeking, namely loss and deprivation. What are those says well, a common Wayne, you will have a Wayne and Wayne, is this closer to see you have multiple interpretations as to what that refers to some of them said refers

00:39:55--> 00:39:59

to punishment. Some of them said it is a valley of punishment in the fire. Some of them said refer

00:40:00--> 00:40:12

through loss and misery and all of that stuff destruction. And the reality is all of those meanings are similar, because loss and misery and destruction and punishment and the value of the fire, one of them are similar in terms of that particular meaning.

00:40:19--> 00:40:31

Only like there's a couple of cars, which are blocking the main car park. If that's you, please can you remove them immediately. Then Audi and all seven played, please.

00:40:36--> 00:41:08

Then Allah tells us that He is the sovereign of the heavens and the earth, and all that is between them. Therefore all all creatures are his slaves and subject to him, and not one of them has any control or share of dominion. Not one of them helps him in his control, and no one can intercede except by Allah's Leave. So how can any of them be taken as gods? How could Allah have begotten any of them essence, glorified and exalted be the almighty sovereign, to whom Allah to whom all submit, for whom nothing is difficult, to whom the angels who are near

00:41:09--> 00:41:11

near him submit, and they are all constantly,

00:41:12--> 00:41:48

constantly worship Him. Hence, Allah says, and those who are with him, namely, the angels, are not too proud to worship him, nor do they ever grow weary. That is, they never tire of worship because they are so eager. Their love is complete, and they are physically strong. And Allah azza wa jal says women are in devil those that are close with him or close by Him meaning the angels of Allah subhanho wa Taala and that's because normally the closer you are to someone, the more aware you are of their reality. So Allah azza wa jal is saying that surely the angels if they knew that Allah subhanaw taala wasn't the one true God or worthy of worship, they wouldn't be worshipping Allah azza

00:41:48--> 00:42:24

wa jal for the fact that those that are closer to Him, if you look at the text of the Quran and the Sunnah, you see that the angels actually worship Allah azza wa jal more than anyone. As mentioned in numerous verses of the Quran and Hadith of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam constantly the worship of Allah azza wa jal as the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, there is not a handspun upon the heavens, except that you will find a Punnett a an angel, either standing or making ROCOR or making sujood constantly in the worship of Allah subhanaw taala. And so the worship Allah azza wa jal, because they are more, they have more knowledge concerning Allah subhanaw taala. In some of

00:42:24--> 00:43:04

those issues, they know Allah azza wa jal and his power and his abilities and his and his and his mercy and kindness and everything else, they were of those attributes of Allah subhanaw taala because of the proximity to him, and because of the proximity teams panel data, the increase in worship, and they do more than other creations that glorify Him night and day without flagging. That is they are immersed in worship and glorification at all times without ceasing. Despite their great number. All of them are like that. And this is indicative to Allah's greatness, complete sovereignty and perfect knowledge and wisdom, which dictate that none should be worshipped except he, and no act

00:43:04--> 00:43:40

of worship should be directed to anyone except him. And this is like a nice topic if someone wants to gather all of the narrations concerning the worship of the angels. It'd be amazing. All of the worship of the angels there are numerous a hadith like the hadith of Enniscorthy, Allahu Allah Sahih Muslim, about the beetle Memorial, which is the house that the angels worshipping there is above the Kaaba 70,000 angels go in it every single day to worship Allah azza wa jal, and they leave and they never return again. So every day a new batch of 70,000 angels which shows you how vast the creation of angels is, number one, and number two, how old are they doing this constantly the worship of

00:43:40--> 00:43:52

Allah Allah worship to be the Hamid daleel Takbeer worship record sujood all of it is the worship of Allah subhanho wa Taala me tell why do early

Glory be to Allah, Lord of the Throne, and exalted be He far above what they ascribed him.

00:44:26--> 00:44:35

Lay us Edwin, my follower whom us alone, he cannot be questioned about what he does, but they will be questioned.

00:45:00--> 00:45:08

Though this the book of those who are with me, and the book of those who came before me, but but most of them do not know the truth, so they turned away.

00:45:09--> 00:45:10

Well, almost

00:45:12--> 00:45:18

Coverley came a lawsuit in no he lay it No.

00:45:19--> 00:45:20

in

00:45:25--> 00:46:06

blue, and we did not send before you Oh Muhammad sallallahu alayhi salam, any messenger but we revealed to him there was no God worthy of worship except me. So worship Me alone, having missed mentioned the perfect nature of his power and greatness, and the submission of all things to him. Here Allah subhanho wa Taala denounces the polytheist who have, besides Allah taking others from the earth as God as gods, who utterly help who who are utterly helpless and incapable? Or have they taken gods from the earth who can raise the dead? This appears in the form of a question. But why is men indication, in other words, those false cards are not able to raise the dead, or resurrect them.

00:46:06--> 00:46:46

This explained elsewhere where Allah subhanho wa Taala says, They have taken other gods besides Him, that can that can create nothing, by themselves created, they have no power either to harm or benefit themselves, and they have no power to cause death, give life or resurrect. And yet they have taken other gods besides a lot in the hope that they may be helped, they cannot help them, they cannot help them. Rather, the worshippers stand like warriors ready to defend them. So the polytheist worship, so the polytheist worships something created that cannot benefit or harm. And he does not devote devote his worship solely to Allah tomb all perfect attributes belong and in whose

00:46:46--> 00:47:08

hand is control, and the power to benefit or harm. That is because the policy is is not guided, and is unfortunate. And because of his ignorance and wrongdoing, the universe, the universe cannot maintain well being unless it is cared for by one God, as it was created and brought into being by only one Lord. Hence, Allah says, If there had been there in their eyes in the heavens and the earth,

00:47:09--> 00:47:48

any gods besides Allah, both realms would surely have fallen into disorder, and in, in and of themselves, and all creatures in them would have would also have fallen into this order in the Arabic language in eloquence, this is called the needed to manner the evidence of impossibility. And that is, Allah is really saying that if they were to be more than one God in the heavens and the earth, and they would have been chaos, each God wanting to do as he pleased, each God saying, This is what I decree or that is what I decree, and they would have been constantly at war with each other. And that would have led to Chaos. This in Arabic is called the needle to manna, the evidence

00:47:48--> 00:48:20

of impossibility. And that is something which you know, even in mythology, those regions, Greek mythology, Roman mythology, where they say there were multiple gods, God, for the Son of God for that what they're often doing in that mythology is, was with each other, fighting with one another. And essentially, all of these other creations, they say, are pawns in that war, right. They're just like soldiers that they're using, in order to have the war between the gods. So it's just chaos. And it would have just led to complete destruction and misery and war and what have you. And so have Allah subhanaw. Taala is saying, therefore, we know that if Allah azza wa jal, or they were to be

00:48:20--> 00:49:00

more than one God besides Allah Subhan data, and they will all true, Gods full gods in terms of the perfection and power, then that's what it would have led to. And that in itself shows that there is only one God worthy of worship. What this means is that the upper and the lower realms are visibly in the most perfect shape, sound and in order, with no flaws, or defects, no resistance to the divine will and no opposition to the Divine Decree, this indicates that the controller is one, the Lord is one. And there God is one, if there were two or more controllers or Lords than their system would falter, and periods would collapse. Because Because those two controllers or Lords would

00:49:00--> 00:49:32

oppose one another and strive against one another. If one of them wanted one thing, the other would want the opposite. Therefore, it is impossible for two wills to coexist. And if the will of one was done, but not the other, this would indicate that the other was helpless and incapable. But it will be impossible for both to agree on one thing in all matters. And that's something which we all know. And this is why Allah azza wa jal throughout this throughout the beginning of the Surah, as you can see, is establishing these evidences against the coloration, the politics of Arabia, that they used to have these laws that they would place upon Allah that they themselves couldn't apply to

00:49:32--> 00:49:59

themselves. Everyone knows now like me, and you now in our own household, our own families, we can't even get people to do what we want. You're the father, you're the mother, you're the husband or the wife. No one listens to you. Your Will doesn't go in your own house, you're a businessman, you have a employees, you're a teacher, you have students and your tenant, no one listens to you, or some people, everyone's got their own will. And so even in the smallest of settings, people don't necessarily work in that way, when there's coexisting powers and wills and people's different

00:50:00--> 00:50:37

opinions taking place. Imagine if it was someone that had all of that power. And we see it today in the world when there's wars and so on one powerful country against another one, people with power and people, there's always going to be conflict and issues. Imagine if they were all powerful gods, and that's what was taking place. And so Allah subhanaw taala is saying therefore, that there is only one true god worthy of worship. Therefore, it must be the case that the controller whose will alone is done, without any resistance or opposition is Allah the one said, subdue or hence Allah refers to this argument when he says, Allah has never begotten son, nor is there any God besides

00:50:37--> 00:51:17

Him. In that case, each God would have taken full control of what he had created, and each would have rushed to gain supremacy over the others. Glory be to Allah and exalted be He far above what they ascribed him and say, Oh Muhammad, sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, if there were other gods with him, as they say, they will surely have sought a way to the Lord of the Throne, Glory be to Him and resulted be here for over four above what they what they say. And Allah says, hence, Allah says here, Glory be to Allah, that is exalted, be above all shortcomings, for he is alone, for he is alone, for he alone is perfect, Lord of the Throne, which is above all creation, and is the vastest

00:51:17--> 00:51:35

and the great and greatest of all creative things. If he is Lord of the Throne, is even more appropriate for Him to be Lord of whatever it is beneath it. That is from the eloquence of the Quran that Allah azza wa jal chooses the greatest of his creations and says that there is power over it. So therefore every other creation is below it and smaller than it are.

00:51:36--> 00:51:55

The greatest investors of Allah's creations is the Throne of Allah subhanaw taala. And Allah is the Lord of the Throne. So if Allah is the lord of that throne, then he is the Lord of everything beneath it, and exalted be He far above what they ascribe to him. That is what the disbelievers ascribed him of having begotten offspring or taken away or having a partner in any

00:52:03--> 00:52:05

let him finish his phone call Zach Allah

00:52:18--> 00:52:53

He cannot be questioned about what he does, because of because of his greatness, glory, imperfect mind, no one can resist him or oppose him in in word or deed, because of his perfect wisdom, for his precise, precise and wise in all what he does, he has created everything perfectly, that may that may be comprehended by reason. So there can be no question concerning it, because all that he creates is free of faults. But they that is all created beings will be questioned about the deeds and words because of their helplessness and weakness. And because they are his slaves, their actions and movements are controlled, and they have not the slightest control over themselves or anyone

00:52:53--> 00:53:28

else. Then Allah again criticizes and rebukes the policies for taking God besides him, or have they taken other gods besides Him, say, Bring your proof that as your evidence for the soundness of of your view, but they will never be able to do that rather definitive evidence has been established of its force, with falseness. Hence, Allah says, this is the book of those who are with me, and the book of those who came before me. That is, all the previous scriptures and religious teachings are agreed on the soundness of what they have said to you regarding the wrongness of ascribing partners to Allah. This is the book of Allah, in which there is mention of all things on the basis of

00:53:28--> 00:53:41

rational and textual evidence. And all these previous scriptures are proof and evidence for what I said, as it is the case that proof and evidence has been established against them of the falseness of what they believe in what they believe, is known

00:53:43--> 00:54:19

that they have no proof because definitive proof is that is that which one there is certainly no argument with Stan, there is no argument. No argument can withstand otherwise, it can be definitive. If there's a lot, it cannot be definitive. If there's proof, and there are arguments that may be raised against it, then there are some specious arguments that do not change anything, but most of them do not know the truth. That is they persist, persist in their ways, imitating their forefathers and arguing without any knowledge or guidance. The fact that they do not have any knowledge of the truth is not because it is hidden or unclear whether it is because they turn away from it.

00:54:19--> 00:54:56

Otherwise, if they prayed the slightest attention to it, they would know truth from falsehood in a very clear way. Hence, Allah says, so they turn away when Allah refer to the scriptures of those who came before and instructed people to refer to them in in the context of discussing this issue. He explained it fully by saying, and we did not send them before you, oh, Muhammad Sallallahu sallam, any messenger, but we will to him. There is no god worthy of worship except me. So worship me along with regard to all the messengers who came before you, and they're in their books. The basic essence of the message is the command to worship Allah alone with no partner or associate and declaration

00:54:56--> 00:54:59

that He alone is the true God who's deserving worship.

00:55:00--> 00:55:02

and worship of anything other than Him is false.

00:55:03--> 00:55:24

00:55:59--> 00:56:03

When I mean whom in

00:56:05--> 00:56:45

Guney further the candidacy Jehan gather energies evolving. If any of them were to say, I am a God besides Him, we will recruit him with hell. Thus, we recruit the wrongdoers here, Allah subhanho wa Taala tells us of the foolishness of the police polytheist who disbelieved in the messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and claim that Allah had begotten offspring by saying that the angels were the daughters of Allah exalted the Allah far above what they say. Then he goes on to describe the angels as slaves who are subjected to His Lordship, and under his control, they have no control over anything at all. Rather, they are honored by Allah, who made them his slaves, and bestowed His

00:56:45--> 00:57:18

Mercy upon them. And he and he singled them out for virtues and purified them of all bad attributes. They observe the utmost etiquette with Allah and comply with his commands the author 100 Targa and these verses, he's saying that Allah azza wa jal when he says that the claim that Allah has a child, that it's referring to the angels as being the daughters of Allah subhanaw taala. And that's because all of these verses are in the context of the politics of Arabia, the machete kin of the Arabs, and the Michigan or the Arabs didn't believe in profit. So they never said that a prophet of Allah was the son of Allah because they didn't believe in prophets, generally. Anyway, speaking, other than

00:57:19--> 00:57:52

maybe the exception, we brought him in his mind. But generally speaking, they when people are prophets, but they did believe amongst them. It was a prevalent belief that the angels were the daughters of Allah. And we know that the coloration the Arabs, in general, used to look down upon their female children, their daughters, and they would honor their sons. And so Allah Azza gentlemanly King to him, they would ascribe what they considered to be not worthy for themselves, they will ascribe them to Allah azza wa jal, essentially, that angels are daughters for themselves. They don't like daughters, they only want sons to Allah, though he could have daughters and those

00:57:52--> 00:58:28

angels of the daughters of Allah, that's what they used to say. They do not speak until he has spoken. That is, they do not say anything that has to do with the affairs of his demeanor until Allah speaks because of their perfect etiquette, and their awareness of the perfect nature of his wisdom and knowledge. And they only do as he commands. That is, no matter what he command, no matter what He commands him to do. They comply with his command, no matter what he task, what task he gives them, they do it, they do not disobey Him for even an instant. And they do not do anything on the basis of what they themselves desire. Rather, they do only what Allah commands. Moreover, Allah has

00:58:29--> 00:59:05

encompassed them with his knowledge, so they are the servants of Allah azza wa jal, not the children of Allah subhanaw taala. And that is what law says, they only speak when spoken to when it gives them the command to speak, and no one's child does that. And Allah azza wa jal says that they only do as he commands. They only do what Allah commands and they only do as Allah azza wa jal commands when he commands as he commands Subhana wa Tada and again, a child doesn't do that. And so Allah azza wa jal is making the distinction between the angels and the police that Allah azza wa jal has given to them, and the claims that people used to make that they are the children of Allah or he

00:59:05--> 00:59:44

knows what was before them, and what will be after them. That is the past and future affairs. So they cannot escape his knowledge, just as they cannot escape his command and control because they do not speak until he has spoken. They do not intercede for anyone without his permission and consent. If he gives them permission and is pleased with with the one for whom they seek to intercede, then they will intercede for him. However, Allah subhanho wa Taala does not accept any words or deeds except those that were done sincerely for his sake in accordance with the teachings of His Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. This first is one of the proofs for for the concept of intercession and

00:59:44--> 01:00:00

proves that the angels will will intercede and they are filled with reverence all of them. That is they fear him and are in awe of him. They have submitted to His Majesty in their faces are humbled before His glory and beauty. Having explained that they have no right

01:00:00--> 01:00:30

to divinity and do not deserve any worship at all, as a description that he gives them implies that Allah also states that they have no share in Divinity even if they make such a claim. And that if for argument's sake, any of them were to say, I am a God besides Him, we will recruit him with hell. Thus Do you regret the wrongdoers? What wrongdoing could be greater than that of imperfect creation creature who is indeed of Allah in always claiming to share with Allah the attributes of divinity and lordship.

01:00:46--> 01:00:59

Equals che in high FL mean? Do the disbelievers not realize that the heavens and the earth were a single mass, then we split them apart, and we have made from water every living thing? Well, they're not then believe

01:01:00--> 01:01:40

that is can these people who disbelieve in their Lord and do not show devotion and worship team alone, not see that which clearly indicates that he is the Lord who is most praiseworthy, most generous and deserving of worship. They look at the heavens and the earth and see them as a solid mess. They see the sky without a single cloud to bring rain. And they see the Earth lifeless and dead with no vegetation in it. Then we split them apart so that the sky produces rain and the Earth produces vegetation is he who creates clouds in the sky after I had been completely clear, and instills the instills in the clouds, abundant rain and the abundant water, then send it down to a

01:01:40--> 01:01:47

dead land that was covered in dust and utterly parched. And he caused it to rain, so that the Earth

01:01:49--> 01:02:29

steers to life and swells and brings forth beautiful plants of every kind. They are used for many different purposes, does that not indicate that he is true, and all other besides Him are false? And that is he he who will give life to the dead and that He is the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful? Will they not then believe this refers to sound faith, with no element of doubt or ascription of partners to Allah. Last Pantheon in this verse, he says that the earth and the heavens are the single mass, and then we split them apart. And the spoils of Tafseer differ over what that means. One interpretation is that the two of them the Heavens and Earth were together. And then they were

01:02:29--> 01:03:05

split apart. That's one to seal and other to seal which is the more famous and well known amongst itself as the author has chosen. And a supposition of the likes to remember poverty Ramallah and others, is that it's not referring to the both of them being together and then split apart, but that they will split apart anyway, they were separate. But each one was its own mass. The heavens is like a mass in itself and the earth and Allah azza wa jal open one by the rain coming out and the other one by the vegetation coming up. That's the position of the majority of the scholars of difficile. And so that second interpretation is the one that is the more famous one amongst the earlier

01:03:05--> 01:03:40

scholars of Sierra amongst itself. And I mentioned that because often this verse is used by people saying that maybe you know, the Quran shows that the Big Bang Theory was something which was possible, for example, because here Allah saying that they were together than they were split up, maybe that shows something. And people often do this now, when they tried to take these theories that we see in science and other types of fields and they tried to find verses of the Quran that can and maybe can be used and applied to them. And that is not a correct way of making Tafseer of the Quran. The Quran is there for you to take and apply to other things. But the other things should be

01:03:40--> 01:04:23

taken back to the Quran to see if they work with the Quran or in conformation with it. That's an important point to mention. And so the scholars have to see as Tara said, some people sometimes they have good intentions, but the way that they apply those intentions is incorrect. The Quran isn't there just for us to come now and try to make it work with what people are saying and what's popular not popular and what people believe and don't necessarily believe the Quran is there for us to go back to take as our primary source of guidance and Allah refers to evidence in the universe what you fill up here than me the BEAM module feature Subala Lala whom yeah third who and we have set on on

01:04:23--> 01:04:30

the earth mountain standing from let's get shake with them and we have made their in broad paths so that they may find their way

01:04:32--> 01:04:54

what you are less SOCO femme for women to maroon and we have made the heaven a canopy safe and well guarded yet they turn away from its signs. Well who will lead the Holika Leila one hell of a Shem so we'll come out Lo Fi for liking as well who

01:04:56--> 01:05:00

is He Who created the night and the day in the sun and

01:05:00--> 01:05:02

The Moon, each moving swiftly in his orbit.

01:05:03--> 01:05:17

That is among the evidence of his mind, his perfection, his oneness and His mercy is the fact that as the Earth could not be stable without mountains, he has made it stable thereby and has made the mountains like pigs for it, so that it will not shake with the people.

01:05:19--> 01:05:59

He people would not be able to remain steady on it or cultivate it or settle on it otherwise. So Allah has made the earth stable by means of the mountains which resulted in an abundance of benefit of benefits, because the mountains are connected to one another. And those chains of high peaks run on for a long distance. If they were to remain like that traveling between countries would be very difficult. But by his wisdom and mercy, Allah has created a broad path between the mountains this refers to the easy route and gentle terrain through which people can find the way to reach the lands they seek. And perhaps they will be guided to evidence of the oneness of the Bestower. And we have

01:05:59--> 01:06:37

made the heavens a canopy for the earth on which you are safe and well guarded against falling. Barely Allah sustains the heavens and the earth, lest they decline. The heavens are also guarded against the eavesdropping of the devils. Yet they turn away from science, that is their release and distracted. This is general meaning and refers to all the signs in the heavens, is great Hi vastness, greatness, beautiful color, amazing precision, and other things that are visible in it, such as the stars and planets Sun and Moon, from which result, night and day and the fact that they are always running in their own courses, and the stars do likewise. Many benefits for people result

01:06:37--> 01:07:17

from that, such as heat and cold and the passage of the seasons, they know how to work out the time for the acts of worship, and their dealings and trans transactions. The rest at night, sitting down calmly, and they go about their business during the day, earning their livelihood. If the wise person reflects on all these things, and thinks deeply about them, he will reach a certain conclusion with no element of doubt that Allah has made for the Allah has made for a certain length of time, the rate during which people will gain great benefits from from them, then after that, they will diminish and cease to be the one who created them will extinct, extinguish them and the one who

01:07:17--> 01:07:54

set them in motion will bring them to a halt. Then those who are accountable, will move to another realm in which they will find the recordings of their deeds in full. And it will be known that the purpose of this room was to invest for the eternal realm, and that it was a place to pass through not a place to settle. That is that this universe with all of its beauty, the heavens, the earth, the mountains, the rivers, everything what are the beauties that Allah azza wa jal is created in what we call nature. All of that will be extinguished on your own piano and the verses of the Quran and the Sunnah, the Hadith of the Sunnah show that everything changes, the eclipsing of the sun, the

01:07:54--> 01:08:19

falling of the stars, the oceans and the rivers and the seas, turning the blaze all of this stuff Allah azza wa jal says, that The Mountains will be rendered into dust. So everything that we consider to be beautiful, from the creation of Allah azza wa jal around us in nature, all of that will be removed. And that's why the author says then people will know the reality of the dunya this dunya was never meant to be a place of permanent abode, but rather a temporary place of passing through

01:08:21--> 01:08:41

my man Jaiden early vitiating topological hold FM mid def a hormone Holly too soon. We did not grant grant everlasting life to any human being before you O Muhammad sallallahu alayhi salam. So if you die, will they the disbelievers live forever. Alone I've seen

01:08:43--> 01:08:44

a cartoon remember

01:08:45--> 01:09:29

whenever who can we share with you? Well, Heidi fitna what Elaine and Roger who own every soul is bound to taste death, we tempt you with evil and good by way of trial, and to us you will be returned because of the enemy because the enemies of the messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was saying, Let us wait for some misfortune to to before him. Allah subhanho wa Taala said this path of Mitch misfortune is well trodden. We do not grant everlasting life in this world to any human before you own Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. So if you die is the same as is the same as happened to others like you, among the messengers, prophets, close friends of Allah and others. So if you

01:09:29--> 01:09:39

die, will they will they the disbelievers live forever, that is will they be given eternal life after you are gone, then let them enjoy the the eternal life if there is such a thing,

01:09:40--> 01:09:42

but that is not the case. Rather,

01:09:43--> 01:10:00

all who are on earth will perish. Hence Allah says every soul is bound to taste death. This includes all creatures. This is a cup from which all must inevitably inevitably drink, even those who live for a long time, but Allah subhanho wa Taala has created his slaves in this

01:10:00--> 01:10:39

world and has, has issued commands and prohibitions. He tests them with good and bad wealth and poverty, power and humiliation, life and death. This is a trial from him, and a test to see who among whom and who among them will be best indeed, who fell when tested and who will be saved. And this first shows that therefore both good and evil are tests when a blue conditionally will show you the fitna. We test you with good we test you with evil, both tests for good Allah azza wa jal wants to see what you will do with those rewards and those blessings and how we'll use them in terms of coming closer to Allah azza wa jal showing gratitude and thanking Allah azza wa jal and in terms of

01:10:39--> 01:11:13

even how you will behave when Allah azza wa jal tests you with calamity and hardship and difficulty, your level of patience and Eman, both of them are tests. And so they will never should a person look at another person and see oh, that they have this money and cause and wealth and I think that they just live in Europe and all that they have His blessing. Now that's a test for that individual. And how many times the Quran does Allah azza wa jal tell us from the previous nations, the times of Pharaoh and call rune and her man, and even in the time of the Prophet Salim Abu Lahab and Abuja they will people a wealth and people of status and people of power and fame, but all of those things

01:11:13--> 01:11:30

for them were their tests, because that much money was what made them stop believing or made them not able to accept Islam, and believe in the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam. And so it's always a test whether it's good, or whether it is bad. It is always a test from Allah azza wa jal to see how the believer would respond.

01:11:32--> 01:11:39

So if you die, will they the disbelievers live forever, that is, will they be given eternal life after you are gone, then let them enjoy

01:11:40--> 01:11:41

us you will be returned.

01:11:46--> 01:12:24

And to us, you will be returned. And we will request you for your deeds. If they were, if they were good, then you will be rewarded and if they were evil, then you will be punished. And your Lord is never unjustly slaves. This first highlights the falseness of the view, those who say that al Qaeda is still alive, and that He is immortal in this world. This is a view for which there is no proof and it is contrary to the Sharia evidence. And we covered this when we went through surah tokayev and the story of Musa duralumin salaam, some of the scholars wrote the position or you'll find this position amongst them, the hadith is still alive and that is still living under on raishin. To say

01:12:24--> 01:12:45

that he makes Hutch every and so on. All of this is found in in the books of the seer and so on. But none of them are authentically coming from the prophets of Allah Allah he will sell them but the position of the majority of the scholars have to seal based on this verse and other evidences as well is that the prophets of Allah all of them pass away when Allah Azza decrees for them to pass away with the exception of

01:12:47--> 01:12:56

the Saudi setup, and he will return towards the end of time and he too will die. Allah Azza decree upon him death also he will also die after his return.

01:12:57--> 01:13:00

Well either I get an email give a little

01:14:36--> 01:14:52

cover Lika how are they letting sofiero mean who can only hear stanzi? Oh, indeed, messengers before you will ridiculed but then those who mock them were overwhelmed by the very, by the very thing punishment they used to ridicule.

01:14:54--> 01:14:59

This is because of the severity of the disbelief when the polytheist saw the messenger of allah sallallahu alayhi

01:15:00--> 01:15:36

wa sallam, they ridiculed him and said, Is this the one who speaks ill of your God? That is, is this insignificant men as they claimed, the one who revolves your gods criticizes them and attacks them. In other words, pay no attention to him and do not worry about him. The fact that they ridiculed him and looked down on him is indicative indicative of his perfection. For he was the more he was the more perfect and virtuous one. One of his virtues was his devotion to worshiping Allah alone in his criticism of everything that is worshipped besides Him, pointing out its real status Institute

01:15:37--> 01:16:17

and situation. Rather, those who deserve to be despised and ridiculed were the disbelievers who combined, or blameworthy characteristics, even if there was nothing except their disbelief in the Lord and the rejection of his messenger of His messengers. They would still be the most dark, vile and worst of people. The mention of his name most gracious here highlights how bad they were. How could they respond to the Most Gracious who was those all blessings and protects against harm, and no one has any blessings, or no one has any blessing, but it comes from him and no harm is worse off except by him by disbelieving in him and ascribing partners to him. Man is is a creature of haste.

01:16:17--> 01:16:54

That is, he was created hasty and point to rushing into things, impatient for them to happen, that this the believers seek to hasten the punishment of Allah for the disbelievers and think it slow incoming, whilst the disbelievers turn away and seek to hasten their punishment because they do not believe in it. And out of stubbornness, they say when will the origin says mankind was created from haste and what that means is his leeches he says the author says here Ramana Tada. That's what he means that he was created in the history nature. And from the history nature's what the author says that you always constantly want everything here and now you're to ask to be answered, your enemies

01:16:54--> 01:17:28

to be destroyed, your blessings to be given. Everything is here, and now, today, tomorrow. And it's the same with seeking knowledge, seeking knowledge. I want to learn as much as I can as quickly as I can. Today, tomorrow this week, this is the nature of humans. And so Allah azza wa jal is saying that this is the way that people are and so one of the things that the Muslim is told to learn is patience, and self discipline and self restraint. And that's one of the benefits of the month of Ramadan for you to understand that there is such a thing as delayed gratification, you do the hard work now. And over time you get the rewards and the blessings from ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada. And you

01:17:28--> 01:18:04

find similar Hadith by the way, in similar verses like this, in the Quran, whenever something similar like this comes, is referring to the nature because Allah azza wa jal told us what humans were created from. So when Allah subhanaw taala then says that they were created from AST. It means the nature is hasty, like the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam concerning the camels and the Hadith, camels are created from shayateen or they are devils meaning that they have the natures of devils not that they were literally created from the jinn or from from from devils. When will the pump won't When will this promise come to pass? If you speak the truth, Allah subhanho wa Taala

01:18:04--> 01:18:45

gives respite but does not overlook, he shows forbearance and grants them a temporary reprieve or prive. But when their opponent time appointed time comes, they will not be able to delay it for a single moment or bring it forward. Hence, Allah says here, I will show you my signs that is in my in my vengeance upon those who disbelieved in me, and disobeyed me. So do not ask me to hasten that. Similarly, those who disbelieve say, When will this promise come to pass, if you speak the truth, they said this out of ignorance, ignorance arrogance, when the punishment had not yet come, had not yet become due, and had not yet been falling them. If only the disbelievers knew of the terrible

01:18:45--> 01:19:20

situation they will be in, they will be in at the time when they will not be able to ward off the fire from the faces or their backs, when it surrounds them on all sides and overwhelms them from all directions. Nor will they be helped. That is no one will be helped, no one will help them. They will not help others and will not be helped on here. Allah azza wa jal speaks about the disbelievers and their punishment, and he says that they won't be able to ward off the fire from their faces or from their backs. And again, this is from the eloquence of the Quran, look at the imagery that Allah azza wa jal is giving you because the kuffaar these disbelievers they would listen they would face the

01:19:20--> 01:19:59

prophet of cinnamon, listen to him. And then they would turn and give him his back mean they would reject. And so those two positions that they had Allah Azza will punish them with them, the fire will consume them from their fronts, consume them from their backs, rather, that is the fire will come upon them suddenly and confound them. Because because of its suddenness and the alarm and great fear it will bring and they will not be able to avert it, because they will be to humiliated and weak to do that, nor will they be given any respite, that is any reprieve such that the punishment might be delayed for them if they truly under understood

01:20:00--> 01:20:37

This, they will not seek taste and punishment, and they will be very afraid, but because they did not have have this knowledge, they said what they said, Have you mentioned the ridicule of the message of His Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, when they said, Is this the one who speaks all of your God, Allah consoles him by reminding him that this was the way in which previous nations dealt with their messengers, as he says, Indeed, messengers before you were ridiculed. But then those who mock them were overwhelmed by the very thing, punishment, they used to ridicule, that is the punishment before them, and they became, they could find no means of escape. So let these people

01:20:37--> 01:21:10

beware, let's let's there before them, what befell those disbelievers This is a beautiful principle of the Quran. And that is the principle that Allah Azza has given him to the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam who, when he would go through times of difficulty, Allah would remind him that his situation was very similar to those who came before him, read their stories, learn from their lessons, see what they had to go through, what you're going through isn't something new. And that's why the Scholars recommend that you read the stories of the prophets and the seer of the prophets of Salem and the biographies of the companions and the scholars. Because much of what you go through in

01:21:10--> 01:21:40

terms of hardship difficulty, you'll find someone before you, who is more knowledgeable, more virtuous, had had more a bad and more wish, but a large return on Allah tested them in a similar way, if not a great way. And when you read those stories, and you see what they went through, and how they dealt with them, it allows you to know that you're not the first person to go through this and Allah azza wa jal tests people in this way, and that you can overcome those tests. And so this is something which allows you to does many times in the Quran refers the prophets of salaam back to other prophets. Look at what happened to Ibrahim, look at what happened to Noah. Look at what

01:21:40--> 01:21:53

happened to Musa look at their story, their situation, and that gives you a sense of of consolation, that this is what happened before and how Allah is which will help those people and how loss panda gives them victory at the end.

Is it they who will prevail, and here Allah subhanho wa Taala mentioned that the hopelessness of the of these people who take others besides him as gods, and note that they are in desperate need of the Lord, the Most Gracious, whose mercy and in combat encompasses both righteous and evildoers like by night and by day, say who can protect you, that is Guardian by night, when you are sleeping in your bed and your faculties are not functioning. And by day, as you go about your

01:23:37--> 01:24:14

bids and are distracted, other than the Most Merciful, merciful, other than the Most Gracious, can anyone protect you other than him. No one can protect you except him, yet they turn away from the admonition of the Lord. Hence, they ascribe partners to him. Otherwise, if they had paid heed to the admonition of the Lord and accepted his instructions, they would have been given guy, they would have been guided and granted divine help, or do they have gods who can protect them from our punishment? That is, if we do create ill for them? Can any of their gods protect them from the ill and the and the evil that befalls them? They have no power to help themselves, nor do they enjoy our

01:24:14--> 01:24:54

support. That is, they will receive no help from us with regard to their affairs, and if they receive no help from Allah, they will fill in all their affairs and will not be able to achieve any benefit or ward off any harm. The end of verse 43 Willa Hamina, use her own the word use haben comes from the root word of cyber or Sahib and he means support and protection. Allah azza wa jal says that they will have the enjoy our support or our protection that is the meaning and that is because aside Sahib means friend in Arabic language or a companion, your companion is your companion because they come to your aid, your support and your protection. And that is why the Sahaba the companions

01:24:54--> 01:24:59

will call the Sahaba because they aided the prophetess and they protected him they defended him they were willing to suffer

01:25:00--> 01:25:26

fies sacrificed their lives for him, as many of them did Radi Allahu Allah when she married and that is when the drama of traveling that there are that you make when you go on a journey. You say Allah whom antasari Boo Christopher, oh Allah you are our companion on this travel meaning what Allah doesn't physically accompany you means you give us your give us your eat your support your protection on this journey. So Allah azza wa jal is saying that these people do not enjoy the support of Allah azza wa jal was protection.

01:25:28--> 01:25:41

The reason why they persisted in their disbelief and ascription of partners to Allah is indicated in the following verse. But we have allowed these people have in their forefathers to enjoy the good things of life for a long time. That is, we have granted them wealth

01:25:42--> 01:26:22

that we have granted them wealth and sons, and we have given them a long life. So they focused on enjoying it, and we're distracted from that for which they were created. That went on for a long time. So they're highschool hardened, and they persisted in their transgression, transgression and in their ingratitude. If they had paid attention and looked at the people around them, they would not have seen anything, but people, but people dying all around them, and they would have not had they would not have heard, they would not have heard anything but voices of, of LeMat. And they would not have been aware of anything but a constant succession of people dying, day after day, that

01:26:22--> 01:26:25

sets traps on every route to snatch people's souls.

01:26:26--> 01:27:08

Hence, Allah says, do they not see that we gradually reduced the land under the control from its outlying borders, that is, by means of the of the death of its people and their gradual demise? Until Allah inherits the earth and all who are on it, and he is the best of inheritors. If they realize this situation, they will not be deceived, and will not persist as they are. Is it they who who will prevail? That is, is it really possible that they will be able to escape Allah's decree? Or that they can ward off death? How could they be so deceived and think that they will live forever? Or is it the case that when the angel of death comes to take their souls, they will submit and

01:27:08--> 01:27:10

surrender and will not show any resistance?

01:27:12--> 01:27:13

All in

01:27:14--> 01:27:19

the Euro can be watching, while I smell some do

01:27:20--> 01:27:21

either.

01:27:22--> 01:27:23

Those who don't

01:27:24--> 01:28:10

say I only want you on the strength of divine revelation, but the Deaf cannot hear the call when they are warned. What are in my set home enough how to me neither build up bigger lair pueden Nyah, Ilana in Nakhon now volley mean, if the slightest touch of your Lord's punishment were to reach them, they will surely say Woe to us. We were indeed wrongdoers. Say on Hamad SallAllahu wasallam to other people, I only want you on the strength of divine revelation. That is, I'm just a messenger, I do not bring anything of my own accord I do not possess possess the treasures of Allah, I have no knowledge of the Unseen and I'm not an angel. Rather, I warn you on the basis of what Allah reveals

01:28:10--> 01:28:25

to me. So if you respond, you have responded to Allah, and he will reward you for that. But if you turn away and resist, then I have no control over the matter at all. Rather the matter is rest with Allah and the decree is all his but the Deaf cannot hear the call when they are worn.

01:28:27--> 01:28:33

And that is one who is deaf cannot hear any voice for the faculty of hearing is absent in his in his case.

01:28:34--> 01:28:53

Hearing is stipulated in addition to the voice for the means of receiving the sound should be present. Likewise, the revelation causes the heart to spring to life, spiritual life and makes one understand what Allah wants from from us. But if the heart is not receptive to guidance, then with regard to guidance and faith,

01:28:54--> 01:29:31

it will be like the deaf person with regard to sound and sounds and voices. These policies are deaf to guidance. So it's no wonder that they are not guided, especially in this situation with the punishment has not yet reached them, and they have not yet felt its pain. If the slightest touch that is even a small part of your lowest punish were to reach them and nothing of his punishment is easy. They will surely say well to us, we were indeed wrongdoers, there is crying out words of woe, Doom and regret acknowledging their wrongdoing and disbelief and admitting that they deserve the punishment. Allah azza wa jal says that even if a whiff of the punishment of Allah the smallest

01:29:31--> 01:29:59

touch the smallest cent of Allah's punishment was to come to them, they will know that they were going to be destroyed and that's why the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam that Allah subhanaw taala will bring on your multi gamma. A person who in this world had nothing except pleasures, and delights and blessings all they had was luxury in this life. And Allah azza wa jal will take them on your military Yama and dip them into the fire. Just one small dip and then they will be asked did you ever see anything good and they will live with
