cleaning last Eber. So as the Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam is it more difficult to create them again on the Day of Resurrection than all the other things we have created? Verily, we created them from sticky clay. The Surah begins with an oath in which Allah subhanaw taala swears by the noble Angels when they worship Him and dispose of people's affairs, by his leave, affirming his divinity and lordship by those angels lined up in roles, that is in rose, serving the Lord Allah subhanaw taala begins a surah by taking the number of oaths and in the Quran, when Allah azza wa jal kicks on oath, that shows the importance of that thing and the importance of his creation because
Allah subhanaw taala only ever takes oats in that which is important. subhanaw taala so we have Allah Azza takes an oath by one of the greatest of his creations and that is the creation of the angels. And we mentioned yesterday when we were going through the Tafseer of Surya seen how a single one of those angels and before that sort of falter, how Allah subhanaw taala greets the angels in different ways, with different numbers of wings 234 and any more number that repeated subhanaw taala to the intelligibility Valley cinemas, as mentioned in the authentic sunnah has 600 wings, or a salatu salam to show you the the majesty of his creation and its nobility. And that is why the
prophets of Allah while he was sending my soldier breathe and he covered the horizon between the East and the West, because of Arabic he was already set up. And so Allah subhanaw taala here takes an oath by all of those angels. And he gives to us a number of the descriptions from their descriptions is that they line up in roles. They come in roles. As a larger we'll see in salt vegetable, Rob Booker will Melaku soften, suffer, the day that your Lord will come in the angels in rules, they line up in roles. And that is why the prophets of Allah Allah, Allah, He will send them to the Companions when you stand in the Surah the way that the angel stand before the Lord, he said
a messenger of Allah and how do they stand before the Lord? He said some Allahu Allah He was salam. They filled the room.
Rules one after the other, and they make sure that the rules are straight. And so that is why when you stand for the salah it is the Sunnah, that you make sure that the rule before you is formed, then you start the next row and the third and the fourth and so on. And you make sure that each row is straight because that is how the angels lined up before the Lord Subhana. Kateryna, and by those angels who drive the clouds, this also refers to the angels who drive the clouds, by Allah's Leave, and by those angels who recite Allah's words, as they are devoted to their Lord, worshiping and serving Him and not disobeying him even for an instant, Allah swears by them affirming his divinity,
as he says, earlier, God is indeed one, he has no partner in divinity, so devout your Lord, your love, fear, hope, and all kinds of worship solid him And verse number 14 is what we call the durable custom. When Allah azza wa jal takes an oath when you take an oath in the Arabic language, you take it for a reason. You say by Allah, that's the oath. Why did you take the oath by Allah I will go and make by Allah I will go and buy something by Allah will. That second part is called the durable custom, the reason for which you made the oath. So when Allah azza wa jal takes an oath in the Quran, he takes oath because he wants to establish to us an important issue or principle here, the
principle being or the issue being the totality of Allah azza wa jal in the era that your Lord is one Lord or your God is one God, Lord of the heavens, and the earth, and all that is between them and Lord of every point of sunrise, that as he is the creator of these things, who provides for them and controls them, just as he has no partner in his lordship over over them. So too, he has no partner in his divinity, Allah subhanaw taala then affirms the oneness of his divinity, by affirming the oneness of His Lordship, because he's indicative of it. And the polytheist themselves also affirmed it. So he proves to them the soundness of what they denied on the basis of what they
affirm, Allah singled out for mentioned the points of sunrise, because that also implies that the point of sunset, the word translated here as point of sunrise, may also refer to the points of rising of the stars that are mentioned the following verses. Hence, he says, fairly, we adorn the lowest heaven with the beauty of the stars, which also serve as a protection against every rebellious devil, so that they cannot eavesdrop on those on Hi, here Allah mentions two important benefits of the stars. One, they are, they are doing it for the heaven, we're not for the stars, the heaven would be a dark place with no light, but he has adorned it in order to illuminate it
throughout and make it beautiful, and so that people may navigate by the stars in darkness, on land and sea. And there are also other benefits from them, too. They serve to protect the heaven from every rebellious prevent a rebellious devil, preventing them from reaching the heaven in order to eavesdrop on those on high Namie the angels when they try to listen, they are pelted with shooting stars from all sides, so as to repost them and drive them away so that they can not listen to what is said by those on high and there is will be a perpetual that is ongoing punishment has been prepared for them because they rebelled and failed to be felt to obey the Lord. So from the signs of
Allah subhanaw taala is the science of the stars and the beauty that they give to the heavens when you go out on a clear night. And you see those twinkling stars lighting up the sky. It is something which Allah azza wa jal has made it a beauty that Allah Israel says Xena, it is from the beautification that Allah subhanaw taala has placed upon this earth. Were not that Allah subhanaw taala makes an exception here. This would indicate that they never hear anything at all. But he says if but if any of them such as some words, that is, except that the one among the rebellious devils, who snatches a single word by stealth, he will be pursued by a shooting star. Sometimes it hits him
before he is able to convey that words it is familiars. So the news of the heaven is cut off. And sometimes he passes it on before he is hit. But they also tell one 100 lies with that what would that word they that they propagate because of the word that was heard from heaven. And so this is also from the benefit of the spouse, the shooting stars, that word of the devils before the coming of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, the heavens will open to the devils they would go and they would sit there and they will listen to some of the messages of the heavens and they would bring it down and give it to their Shayateen their devils their friends from the disbelievers. And
that is Allah azza wa jal says in Surah, Turgeon in Hakuna Nakuru, minha maclary de December, we used to go on his trap sitting places in the heavens, meaning they would go then they would just sit there relax, and they will listen to the speech of the heavens. But then when the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was going to be sent as a messenger of Allah, Allah azza wa jal decreed that now shooting stars would chase them away. None of those devils were allowed to remain. And so they went to take go back to those sitting places that they were accustomed to, and they found that they will be shut up by the stars. They gathered together and they said, Surely something must have happened
upon the earth, for which Allah azza wa jal has now not allowed us to take the news of the heavens, so spread out across the earth, Eastern Western till you find what that news was, and so they spread out until a group of them came to the area where the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was
In Socorro calth, where he was preaching and speaking about the religion of Allah azza wa jal reciting the Quran, and they heard it. And that is when they said this is the reason for which we can now not no longer take from the news of the heavens because Allah azza wa jal preserve the Quran in that way. And that is the statement of Allah azza wa jal at the beginning of Surah, Elgin alienness, the manna from religion, that those verses in Surah, two Ginny the 29th, jewels of the Quran, and so now no devil can go and take from the heavens except as Allah says, the one that goes and snatches on odd word here and there. And that is why when the companions said, O Messenger of
Allah, sometimes we go to the fortune teller, and what he tells us is true. The Prophet said and said, that is the one word that the devil snatched and gave to him, but he mixed it with 100 lines, he tells you 100 things, one of them comes true, and you believe him. 99 were lies didn't come true. And so people just get hopeful because of that one thing that they said, that happened to be true. And so this is the way in which Allah subhanaw taala then prevented the news of the heavens from escaping. Having described these great creations, Allah says, so ask them on hermits, a lawless animal that is asked those who deny their recreation after death, is it more difficult to create
them again on the Day of Resurrection, that is, is recreating them after their death more difficult than all the other things we have created, they will inevitably be affirm that the creation of the heavens and the earth is more difficult than the creation of humankind. So they have no choice but to affirm and believe in the resurrection. Indeed, if they look at their own selves, and reflect upon them, they will realize that their initial creation from sticky clay is more difficult. When when they think about it, then other than their recreation after after death. Hence, Allah says, Verily will created them from sticky clay. This is like the verse in which Allah says Allah subhanaw
taala says, Indeed we created man from dry clay made from black mud molded into shape.
Metallurgy better wias Harun rather you wonder at their disbelief in the resurrection whilst they read a cue. Once they ridicule it. Well either the cue Rula has grown and when they are reminded they do not pay heed what either
yes the screw on and they say this is obviously nothing but magic when they see a sign and when they see a sign they resort to ridicule work all who in the last year
will be in and they say this is obviously nothing but magic either. Now I can
remember oh
what when we have died and have turned into dust and bones will we really be raised up?
Our
winner one who won an offer for this to
go now I'm

It will be a single blast of the trumpet. And immediately there will be a life looking around.
walk all the way Nana has Dean they will say waters This is a day of judgment.
phosphene I think
we have to get the move.
It will be said this is a day of decision that you used to deny. Rather you wonder or messenger or Omenn at the disbelief of those who disbelieve in the resurrection after you show them great science and clear evidence is indeed something astonishing and strange. There are people who deny the resurrection because it's something that cannot be denied. Whilst even stranger than their denial is the fact that they ridiculed the one who's telling them about the resurrection, they will not content merely to deny it. Rather, they went further and ridiculed the word of truth. So Allah has really seen that you are amazed by the rejection of the hour and the signs of Allah subhanaw taala
and Resurrection despite all of the signs that Allah azza wa jal gave, and in the era, the color of hams and others been our job to Allah has really seen that he is amazed, not the profit center that you should be a means that Allah is it means that after all the signs that he sent to mankind, there are people who still turn away from Allah subhanaw taala. And that is not an amazement that allows you to doesn't know what's going to take place, but an amazement at the state of humankind in the disbelief that despite the guidance and the messengers and the prophets and the revelations that they were given an order the signs, they will still be obstinate and choose the path of Satan. And
also strange is the fact that when they are reminded of what they know on the basis of their natural inclination and rational thinking, and was instilled in them, and what they see around them, they do not pay heed to that. If they do not pay heed because of ignorance. This indicates that they are extremely unintelligent because they were reminded of something that is instilled in them.
And he's well known on the basis of rational thinking, and there can be no doubt about it. And if that is because of willful ignorance and stubbornness, that is even stranger. Also Strange is the fact that when proof is established for them, and they are reminded of the science to which the smartest people and those who are most mature in thinking would submit, they ridicule them and find them odd. Also Strange is the fact that they said of the truth, when it came to them. This is all obviously nothing but magic. They regarded the most sublime of things, namely, the truth as being like the most base and ignoble of things. Also Strange is the fact that they compare the power of
the Lord of the earth and heaven with the power of human beings who are lacking in all aspects. And they said, thinking unlikely and denying what when we have died and have turned into dust and bones, will we be raised up and our fourth forefathers too, because this was all they had to offer? Allah commanded His Messenger SallAllahu Sallam to respond in a way to alarm them. So he said, Yes. So he said, say, yes, you will be resurrected, you and your forefathers and you'll be humiliated, that has brought low, it is not beyond Allah's power to resurrect you, it will be a single blast, that is raffia will blow on the trumpet. And immediately they will they will be resurrected from the graves
and will be alive and looking around, as they were initially created. They will be resurrected whole embody barefoot naked and uncircumcised in that state, they will show their regret disgrace and loss and they will call out wishing for death. They will say Woe to us this the day of judgment, they will affirm that which they used to ridicule ridicule in this world, but it will be set to them. This is the Day of Decision among people and between them and their Lord regarding the concerning regarding that concerning which they differed among themselves of rights and duties and between them and other people

Allah will commandment got it together, those who did wrong and others of their ilk, as well as whatever they used to worship. Man doing Allah He do. Not often jacking besides Allah and direct them to the path of hill.
Walk before whom in a mess goon but but detain them, for they are to be questioned. Malcolm landt analysis
Allah will say to them, what's the matter with you, that you do not help one another, better than whom winning MMOs Destiny move on rather on that day, they will submit completely, that is when they are brought on the Day of Resurrection and they see with their own eyes, that which they disbelieved in and used to ridicu the command will be issued to them to take to issue to take them to the fire, which which they used to disbelieve in and it will be said rather gathered together those who did wrong. That is the wrong themselves by disbelieving, ascribing partners to Allah and committing sins, and others of their ilk who did similar deeds. Each person will be joined to others who were
like him in misdeeds
as well as whatever they used to worship besides Allah, such as the idols and rivals that they claimed, gather them altogether and direct them to the path of *, that is to drive them vitamin D to *. As we said before, when Allah Azza mentions that the people of shirk and what they worshipped what are the movie plays in the hellfire, it means that that which they worship, which Allah Azza didn't, those things called for their worship, or the inanimate objects, in which case the idols and so on throwing them in the fire doesn't make a difference because they're inanimate anyway. Or they call to the worship besides Allah subhanaw taala and it's not referring to those
people that will worship besides Allah, and they never call for that worship such as reciting Sam. He said, he said, never called to be worshipped besides Allah, or Hosea, the son of Allah, some of them said, they didn't call for that worship. So those people and those are prophets of Allah Azza Theron will be punished. But Allah Azza is referring to those people that are the call for that worship to happen or the inanimate objects which allows you to show that they have no power to defend or to harm or they can do nothing to ward off anything for themselves, but after it has become clear to them, that their fate is held, and they know that they are among the people who are
destined for the realm of doom, it will be said detain them before you take them to *, for there to be question about what they used to fabricate in this world so that their lives and fabrication will be made clear before the witnesses molars. primadonna says after he commands that they be taken into the fire to stop them, to make them stop and to detain them so that he may question them. And that is only to increase the humiliation to make them feel the burden of the sin that they committed. They know that they're going to the fight has been decreed. They're on the way and then they made to stop
To show that even if needed now the question, don't you remember all the signs that you were given? Don't you remember what Allah sent to you of guidance? Don't you remember the prophets came to you? The warnings, admonitions that you were given. And they're told and told because that increases them in remorse and regret because they will remember. And they will recall, yes, we saw but we ridiculed and we turned away, and we were negligent. And so Allah azza wa jal is reminding them of his many signs, and increases them and remorse and regret, when they saw all of those opportunities that they that they missed, then it will be said to them was the matter with you, that you did not help one
another. That is what's happened to you today? Who has been following you so that you do not help one another or support one another? After you used to claim in the previous world that they are God would ward off the punishment from you and help you and they would intercede for you with Allah? It is as if they will not answer this question because there'll be overcome with humiliation and shame, they will submit to the punishment of the fire and will surrender having lost all hope. So they will not speak hence Allah says rather on that day, they will submit completely
well I'll call that and I bow boom I bow looking at that
they will turn upon one another reporting one another.

When they are gathered together with others of their ilk and their gods and take into the path of * and that they are detained and questioned, but do not answer they will turn they will then turn to one another. They will then turn upon one another, blaming one another for having gone history and the ministry. The followers will say to the leaders, you used to prevent us from doing what is right and good. That is used to prevent us by force and power. So you lead us astray. We're not for you. We would have been believers last month on associate and this verse 28 in the computer to another
Anil Yameen. The translation we have is they used to prevent us from doing what is right and good. Does anyone have a translation other than this book?
What do you have for verse 28?
Same
young same
okay. The author the Raha Matata, says Mr. C used to prevent us by force and power and that is a better translation and a better Tafseer because the word you mean in Arabic language means the right hand it means the right but it also means force and power.
Yeah so the the took the literal meaning of your mean, which is the right hand and then in brackets staple something else but it doesn't mean that they came from the right hand necessarily doesn't mean that they came from the right sight only they came from any and every direction.
Yeah has a number of meanings in Arabic language and from those meanings and the one that is most appropriate is that it means force and power.
And so Allah subhanaw taala says, for us are the Himba Binyamin as Allah will mentioned the story of Ibrahim Ali Salam, and darba Millia mean means that he struggled with power and force when he broke the idols and Allah azza wa jal mentions concerning the profit center that if he was to the Oh, someone wants to make Shukla, husband, I mean, who Billy I mean, you will take them with force and power. And so what he means here is that they used to forcibly stop them from worshiping Allah, these are the poor people, or the week people complaining about that leaders and nobility normal piano sync to Allah azza wa jal did the reason why we were misguided. So they're not saying that
they were misguided because they came to us from the right hand side, they sing, they prevented us by force, they manipulated us, they threatened us, they did all of those things that stopped us from believing in Allah subhanho wa taala. The leaders will say to them, rather it was you who would not who would not believe that as you continue to ascribe partners to Allah as we did. So what makes you better than us? What right do you have to blame us. And in fact, we had no power over you. That is we did not force you to choose disbelieve, whether it was you who are people given to transgression, and who and you overstepped the mark. Now the punishment of your Lord has become inevitable for us,
that is for us and for you, we will surely taste it. That is the punishment. And this is the will and decree of your Lord, that we end you should take the punishment and share the suffering, therefore we lead you astray for we ourselves had gone straight. This is we we called you to to the path that we were following, which was the path of misguidance and responded to our call. So do not blame us rather blame yourselves early on that day, namely the Day of Resurrection, they will all share in the punishment, even though the severity of the punishment will vary according to extent, the the extent of their sins, just as they shared disbelief in this world, they will share the
consequences there have been hereafter. Hence, Allah says, Indeed, that is how we will deal with with the evildoers. Then Allah states that they're evil doing was extreme and went beyond all balance. For when it was said to them, there is no God worthy of worship except Allah. And they were called to this message, and were instructed to abandon or other gods, they were turned away in arrogance, from the message, and from the one who brought it and say, objecting to it, are we to abandon our gods whom we and our forefathers have continued to worship, for the sake for the sake of and the words of a map poet, they are referring thereby to Muhammad sallallahu alayhi salam, and
they did not stop at turning away from him, or simply rejecting him rather, they judged him in the most unfair manner and deemed him to be a mad poet. When they were all when they were well aware that he knew nothing of poetry or, or poets, and his character was not a bit of a poet, whether he was the most wise of Allah's creation and the most mature and thinking hence, Allah subhanaw taala said refuting the accusation. Rather, he named Mohamed Salah Lorella Salam has what the truth that is, His coming is true. And what he is what what he has brought of teachings in the Quran is true, and confirm the message of the earliest messengers. That is His coming, confirms what the messengers
have foretold concerning him. Were not for His coming and his message, the messengers would have not, would have would not have been telling the truth. Therefore he is a sign and a miracle of, of every messenger who came before him, because they spoke of him and foretold is coming. And Allah took from that from them their covenant and pledge
that if he came to them, they would surely believe in him and support him. And they look they took the same promise from their nations and Allah's dimension is this in one of the verses in surah. Allah Allah says that Allah took the covenant from every prophet and messenger, that if during the time the prophets of Allah Allah was sending was to emerge, they would be from his supporters, and they would be from his helpers, took the covenant from all of the prophets of Allah. So if the Robinson had come at the time that we brought him, the time of Musa the time of nor the time of Risa, they would have been from the supporters of the Prophet Salim because his Sharia came to
abrogate everything that came before it. And that is why when he started Islam returns at the end of time, he won't judge by according to His laws, he won't use the laws of the Injeel he will use the laws of the Quran and the laws that the prophets of Allah who he was brought. So when he came, the truthfulness of messengers who came before him became apparent, and the falsehood of those who disagreed with them became clear. If it had so happened, that he did not come when they have foretold is coming, that would have shut down on the truthfulness. the truthfulness of the messengers was also confirmed by the fact that he brought one that which they brought and called to
that which to that to which they they called, and he believed in them and confirm the soundness of their message. They're probably
Third and their last, because they said earlier, we will surely taste it, which may or may not be true. Allah subhana wa Tada tells us in decisive terms that cannot be both true and certain, because it is he who says it, you are disbelievers will surely taste a painful punishment, but you will not be requested by being made to taste a painful punishment for anything other than what you used to do. We did not wrong you rather, we have just been we have been just towards you. Because the wording use here is general. And what's meant here is a polytheist Allah subhanaw taala excluded the believers from that and said
it will learn live

However, for the chosen insincere slaves of Allah, they will not taste a painful punishment, because they were sincere to Allah in their deeds. Therefore, he chose them and single them out for his mercy and shower them with His grace, there will be provisions that are known that is there or not unknown rather, is an immense provision, the type and quality of which is not unknown, and no one could know its nature.
Then a law explains that by seeing fruits of various kinds, that is all types of fruits that one would enjoy because of its delicious color and taste. And they will be honored. That is they will not be despised or looked down upon. Rather, they will be respected, appreciated, and dignified, they will honor one another and the angels will honor them, entering upon them from every gate and congratulating them for having attained this great honor. And they will be honored by the Most Generous of those who show generosity who will bestow upon them all kinds of blessings that will bring joy to their hearts and souls that is every single one of the believers that enters into
Jannah from the moment that they are resurrected from their graves until the moment they enter into Jannah they are honored and they are welcomed and they are respected and they are appreciated. And then when they enter into Jannah, they are only increased in terms of the reward and in terms of their goodness. The Prophet told us that Allah where it was said and done Allah subhanaw taala will say to the people of Jana, what more can I give to you? And then say they will say oh Allah have you not given us enough already? You entered this into Jana and you saved us from the punishment of the fire. And you gave us from all that we could possibly want. What more is that? So Allah azza wa jal
will say to them, rather, I will give to you My pleasure, and I will never be angry with you again. And that will be from the greatest of blessings of Allah subhanaw taala, that Allah azza wa jal gives them His eternal pleasure. May Allah azza wa jal going to start in gardens of delight, that is in gardens that are filled with joy, and happiness because of what they contain of all sorts of lists, such as No I have seen, no ear has heard, nor has it crossed the mind of men, and they are free of all that couldn't spoil their delights of any kinds of stresses and troubles. One of the ways in which they will be honored by their Lord and will honor one another is that they will be
seated on couches, which raised seats adorned with all kinds of fine and beautiful cloth. They will be reclining on these couches in a way that reflects comfort, serenity and joy facing one another and their heart will be free of rancor, their love, it will not be tainted with any element of hate, and they will be delighted to be together facing one another in a manner that is indicative of the harmony between the hearts they will they will show proper etiquette to one another not turning their backs on one another rather the fact that they are the fact that they are described as facing one another is indicative of their perfectly joint and perfect etiquette towards one another. A
couple of be passed around around among them with a fine with wine from a flung spring. That is boys who are ready to serve them will go
around with delicious drinks in beautiful cups filled with nectar scented with the mask, these cups will be of wine.
These cups will be these, these will be cups of wine, of wine. But that wine will be different from the wine of this world in all aspects. There's lots of dimensions elsewhere, there will be boys serving meaning seven boys as Allah mentions in solitude in sun, and the nectar that they are given the wine that they are given as one that doesn't have toxic meaning all of the evil that you find a wine for which it is made haram in this world, it will be removed from it in, in Africa, and then the people of gender will be given to drink from it, even the food and the drink and the blessings of Jannah anything in all of those things any aspect of of harm or evil or anything that made those
things haram in this as in this dunya will be removed from it. In color is white, which is one of the best of colors, and in taste, it will be delicious to those who drink, the one who drinks it will enjoy it whilst drinking it. And afterwards, it will be free of anything that may harm the mind or cause the drinker to lose his mind. He will not become intoxicated by it and it will not lead to any headache or hangover having told us of the food, drink and gatherings of the people of Paradise and the delights in general terms and in detail that are included in the phrase that gardens of delight, so that people may know what is there and thus they will long for it. Allah now speaks of
their spouses saying so Allah subhanaw taala in this surah as you can see Allah azza wa jal from the very beginning of speaking about his chosen slaves, and that is why the surah will then go on to speak about the prophets of Allah Allah will mention a number of the prophets and he will send his salutations and peace upon them because they are the best of his chosen sleeps. And Allah azza wa jal makes a distinction in the Surah between his chosen slaves from the believers, his Olia and from the disbelievers and our larger honors the people that he chooses and the people that choose him in terms of Iman and worship, and how Allah azza wa jal humiliates those people who turn away from
that,
and with them will be chased women with big beautiful eyes, who was trained their glances that is with the people of paradise,
with big, beautiful eyes reaching the pinnacle of beauty and restraining their glances. Whereas men is either that this beautiful and chase women restrains her glass glance and looks only at her husband because of her chastity. And she does not look beyond him to anyone else. And because of the perfection and beauty of her husband, which is that which is such that she does not want anyone else in paradise but him or her maybe the phrase translated as restrained or glances means that they are so beautiful that the husband looks only at his spouse, and restraints, his glance, which indicates that his thoughts and love are only for her, both meanings are possible and both are sound. And so
the people of Jana
never get bored. What you will see from one of the delights of Jana is that they never get fed up. This person now has his wife. And every time he sees her, he falls in love with her, it increases the love whether he appreciates the beauty each and every single time. And likewise the wives for their husbands. And likewise, every time they eat from the delights of gender and its food, never they get bored, because from human nature is in the dunya is that you get fed up sooner or later. Something that you're accustomed to over and over again, just becomes normal. And that's why you have people that always go to holiday different countries, people from the UK want to go to America,
America, they want to come here. Why? Why? Because people become accustomed people that live by the sea don't like to see they want to go to the city, the people of the city you want to go because after a while you become accustomed, and that is human nature. And that is Allah azza wa jal says the from the delights of Jana is that you never become a customer. You never get bored. You never want to leave. You never think, Oh, I had this yesterday, or this is the same food that I ate, or this is the same person that I'm meeting, this is the same thing that I'm doing. And that is for eternity. We live in this life for how long? 50 6070 years. And so quickly, you become accustomed to
something some people after six months, they can't stay in the same job because they are bored. That's the nature of people. Some people switch from things all the time because they just can't stay with that type of stagnancy. But in general, they will remain for eternity. And never will they experience that type of feeling or emotion that this is the same old Jana same old reward is the same old blessing, because that is from the way that Allah azza wa jal has made Jana perfect. All of this is indicative of the beauty of both men and women in Paradise and the love for one another, which is such that no one would look at anyone else and they will all be extremely chaste. There
will be no envy or resentment, or graduate because of the absence of the causes thereof with big beautiful eyes. This refers to the beauty of the eye and it's lovely shape, as if they namely the whole thing or eggs carefully guarded that is covered. That is because of their beauty and purity and indicated that their colors are the most beautiful of colors, and the most delightful to behold with no blemishes or dark patches

In law one films will now lean. Surely this is this is supreme triumph. Lee Miss Lee had a failure nearly 92. For the lack of this law strive who wish to strive. Having described their bliss and perfect happiness with food and drink. Beautiful spouses and splendid places to sit alone now describes how they will converse with one another and speak of matters of the past. And they will continue talking and asking one another questions until the conversation leads to one of them saying I had a friend in the former world who denied the resurrection and criticized me for believing in it. And he used to say to me, are you one of those who disbelieve? Are you one of those who believe
that when we have died and become dust and bones, we will be brought to account that is required for our deeds. In other words, this delete disbelieving friend asks how can you believe such as far fetched notion, which is very strange, that when we have disintegrated and become dust and bones, we will be resurrected and brought back to life, then we will be brought to account and required for our deeds. The one who's in Paradise will say to his brethren, this is my story. And this is what happened between me and my friend. I was and remain a true believer, a true believer it was he did not believe in the resurrection and persisted in denial until we died, then we were resurrected,
entertained what you see of this place
what you see of bliss, which the messengers told us about and has undoubtedly ended up in. And he has under unadapted undoubtedly ended up in pain and suffering. And these verses showed there for the people of Jana will have memories from the dunya that the people of gender will remember some of the things that happened in the dunya and some of the things that they went through, and they will remember some of the aspects of the life that they had. But it's not to cause them sorrow or grief, as we will see in these verses. But it is so that they can further appreciate the blessings of Allah azza wa jal upon them. And they can further appreciate the way that Allah azza wa jal feet with them
by giving them email and guidance. Now we look for him in the fire and see what happened to him, for it will increase our joy and happiness with what we are enjoying. When we see that with our eyes with our own eyes, what appears to be the case with regard to what the people of paradise have of joy in being together in together and in harmony with one another is that they will respond to what he says. And we'll go with him to look at his friend, because one of the ways that you appreciate something, is by knowing its opposite. One of the ways that you appreciate a blessing is by seeing its opposite. And that is why the officer needs to seek one visit the sick, because you appreciate
your good health when you visit the sick. That's why the President is saying go and help the poor and the needy give them sort of up because when you go physically and that's one of the problems today because everything's become online when it comes to automated when it comes to outside the console. We don't have any interaction with the poor anymore. But the sooner was a you go and you sit with them the process and said I am the one who sponsors the orphans like this. The sponsored sponsored orphan isn't just paying for the orphan. It's actually taking him in looking after him helping him psychologically emotionally. All of those things. That's what a caffeine is someone who
just gives them money and doesn't have any attachment in 1000s of miles away. The one who truly gets that reward and that person gets that rewards not to belittle a person who gives them money and sponsors them but they don't get that full reward because they really are wants you to understand what that person is going through. And when you understand
And you're with them and you spend time with them. That is when a person truly understands the blessings that Allah azza wa jal has bestowed upon them. So likewise for the people of Jana and the fire, the prophet Salam said that no one will enter into Jannah until they see the place that they would have had in the fire had they gone into it. And they will be told that was your seat in the fire that Allah saved you from and no one will go into the fire except that ALLAH will show to them this eating, Jana, had they gone into it, that would have been your place in Jannah. Have you been from the believers? And that's because each one then appreciates the blessing of Allah azza wa jal
for the disbelievers they appreciate they see what they could have had instead, and that is a further type of punishment for them. And so every one goes to see what they would get from the opposite of either reward or punishment before Varzuga puts them into the final two books. So he will look so he will look down and we'll see his friend in the middle of the blazing fire that is in the midst of torment, overwhelmed and surrounded by punishment, he will say, blaming him for his predicament and expressing gratitude to Allah for his blessing and saving him from his friend's attempt to mislead him. By Allah you almost bought about my ruin, that is you almost destroyed me
because of what you tried to confuse me with of your species argument. So this man these two were friends, and look at Subhanallah the power of Allah azza wa jal that there are two people who are close friends, one becomes guided and one is misguided. You have two people in the same family. One is a believer and one's a disbeliever. You have the stories of the prophets of Allah, that the son is a believer, the father is the disbeliever, or the father is the Prophet and the son is the disbeliever. Or the husband is a believer and the wife is that is, that is how Allah azza wa jal gives you data to whomsoever He wills. So this man will say, I was needy, like you, you will, my
friend, you were telling me your doubts and confusions and your arguments. And if I if Allah hadn't chosen me, I could have easily been upon the path that you are upon. Were not for the grace of my Lord and His making me steadfast in Islam, I too, would have been there inhale, suffering the punishment with you. And so therefore, when these people see these people in the fire, it's not to increase them, the people of Jannah that is not to increase them in sorrow or hub is to make them further appreciate the blessings of Allah azza wa jal, because they will see I was so close to being in that position, I could have been like you, but Allah favored me and Allah seemed me that that
shows you how precious Iman is, is it then that we are not going to die except our first death, and that we will not be punished? That is the believer will say this. The people will say this, overjoyed with the blessing that Allah will bestow upon the people of paradise of remaining there forever and being safe from punishment
is a question in the sense of an affirmation. In other words, He will say to his friend, who is now being punished, do you still claim that we will not die except our first death, and that there will be no resurrection or punishment after that, in the phrase, they will turn to one another with with questions. The object of the question is not mentioned. But the context is one of joy and happiness, which indicates that they will ask one another about whatever matters will bring them joy, and they will discuss issues concerning which there were disputes and confusion. It is well known that people have knowledge finds joy in raising questions about issues and researching matters. And that joy is
greater than the pleasure that other people find in discussing worldly matters. So they will have an abundant share of this kind of joy. And they will attain discovery of some facts in paradise that cannot be expressed. And there is nothing wrong with just having conversations with the people of gender, having conversations that should be our allows you to speak and have conversations and sit with your friends and your family and speak about whatever you wish to speak about so long as there's no harm in it. And it doesn't need the person to negligence of Allah subhanaw taala. And that is why the prophet of cinema has mentioned a number of a hadith he would often sit with his
companions, whilst they were reminiscing of the times of joy Helia they will speaking about the days of pre Islam when they were non Muslims and what used to happen what they used to do, and they wouldn't cause them to be negligent of Allah, nor will they speak about anything haram, but they just reminiscing and sometimes what they would say would be funny and they would smile, and the Prophet saw them would smile with them. There's no harm in doing so, so long as it's limited, and it's confined in the way that it's done. And he mentioned the bliss of paradise and described it in these beautiful terms. Allah subhanaw taala praises it, and makes those who strive, long, strive and
make those who are striving long, free, and he encourages them to strive even harder. Surely this is the supreme triumph, by virtue of which they attain all that is good, and all that their heart's desire, and everything that concerns them or harms them is warded off, thereby could there be any greater triumph, to be sought? Or is this the elite is just the ultimate as they have attained the pleasure of the Lord of the earth and the heavens and have found the joy of being near to him, and knowing him, seeing him and listening to his word for the lack of this, or strive who wish to strive for is the most deserving of spending that that which is most precious, and is the first thing for
which smart and knowledgeable people should strive and it is the source of the greatest great regret. If the diligent person lets any that at any time pass
Without doing righteous deeds that will bring him closer to paradise. So how about if he does deeds that bring him closer to the fire. And so this is what you're working, this is what you're doing your deeds and your actions so that you get the rewards that Allah Azza is mentioning in this surah. And you can be from amongst those people that Allah has seen from the punishment of the fire, Allah says limit the Heather for this type of reward, and to be saved from that type of punishment for those people who wish to work, work, if you want to strive for anything, this is the one thing that is worthy of striving for and then Lika

So see what was the fate of those who had been forewarned, but did not pay heed it live and Allahu Mohan Lawson, except the chosen and sincere slaves of Allah is that the better dwelling place that is, is that bliss of the people of paradise that we have described better, or the punishment in * that will involve all kinds of torment, and which of the two foods is better is better? That which we have described in paradise, or the food of the people of * is the tree of the comb, Valley we have made it a torment, that is a punishment for the wrongdoers who long themselves by disbelieving and committing sins is a tree that grows from the depths of *, that is from the middle of *,
that is where it emerges. And the substance of which it is made, is the worst of substances, the wildness of the places, the violence of the place where it goes is indicative of how vile and foul this plant is. Hence, Allah draws our attention to his vile nature, by mentioning where it grows, and the way in which he describes its fruits for the art like the head of devils. After that, do not ask about his tastes, or what it will do to their insights in their bellies. They will have no other food and they will have no other choice but to eat it. Hence, Allah says, they will surely eat, they're filling their bellies. This is the food of the people of *, and how awful their food will
be. And let us because the people of the fire will be hungry, they will experience hunger. And so when they're hungry and they experienced hunger and they want to eat, then Allah azza wa jal will give them from the fruit of the stream. Allah save us from that that's all that they will have. And it's thorns will be long, and it will be difficult to eat and difficult to swallow. And some generations that has said that it won't get stuck in their throat because it's forms are like the heads but it's fruit is like the heads of, of devils, and so it will become lodged within them. And as it goes down because of the forms erupts. Every part of their body their organs erupts
everything. And so Allah azza wa jal is describing this and that is why after they eat, they will feel the thirst, they will want to wash it down and Allah azza wa jal will then give to them the drink of the people of the fire. Ants Allah says they will surely either have filling their bellies, this the food of the people of * and how awful
their food will be. Then Allah mentioned their drink. Then on top of that, that is
After that food, they will be given a mixture of filthy scalding water to drink. That is water that is extremely hot dislike the verses in which Allah subhanaw taala says, if they cry for help, they will be given water like boiling jugs of oil that was called their faces, What a dreadful drink and what a miserable resting place and, and be given scalding water to drink that will tear their intestines and the drink or the water is made, according to some of this positive seal from the pus of the people of the fire. So the person all of the evil that leaves the people of the fire will be gathered, and that is what they will be made to drink. And other verses, as the author mentions
here, the Quran says that they will be given from the filthy remnants of the oil. So when you have oil, what are the filth that remains after you find something or you use that oil, the west part of the Earth, that's what they will be given and it will be boiling one of this will be boiling and scolding for them so hot that in some of the generations It is said that as soon as that water comes close to their faces, their skin will melt off before they even drink from it. And then they will be made to drink from it so that the punishment is not only external on their skin on their flesh, but internal as well. Malossi was from that,
then to *, they they and then to * will they return their abode to which they will return it will be held, so that they may taste its severe punishment and extreme heat. There is nothing more wretched than that. It is as if it was asked what brought them to this abode. So Allah says, For they found their forefathers going for the Founding Fathers going astray. And they hasten to follow in their footsteps, there is the hastened to follow them in misguidance. And they did not pay any attention to that to which the messengers called them, or of that of which the books warn them, or the words of those who offered sincere advice. Rather, they oppose them by saying, We found our
forefathers following a certain path, and we are following in their footsteps.
Indeed, before them, many of the earlier peoples went astray, before those who are who are addressed here. And few of them believed and were guided, even though we sent messengers to them to warn them against what that misguidance so see, what was the fate of those who had been forewarned? Their fate was Doom, disgrace and shame. So let these people beware of persisting in their mosquito nets, lest they meet the same fate. Because those who were warned, did not all go astray. Rather, some of them believed and were sincerely devoted to Allah, Allah states that they were exempted from doing, as he says, except the chosen NCAA, since you're slaves of Allah, that is those whom Allah chose and
singled out for his mercy because of their sincerity. Their end was good. Then Allah mentioned examples of the fate of disbelieving nations. And this is the verse that is repeated often in this sort of in learning about the law Hill McCloskey and except the sincere chosen slaves of Allah, all across this sort of larger dimensions, it's concerning His prophets, His messengers, concerning the believers, that Allah chose them because of their sincerity and because of their faith in the Eman and so allows you to now speak about the people of the past nations and how amongst them they will disbelievers amongst them they will believers including those prophets, and Allah sends his
salutations his Salam upon His prophets, to show that these are the chosen people of Allah azza wa jal, just as the angels are chosen by Allah subhanho data, and they are honored by him than the believers also chosen by Allah azza wa jal and honored by him subhanaw taala what Alka Danna Danna

So I'm I was hiding, then We drowned the others. Here Allah tells us about a slave and messenger and he said, I'm the first of the messengers, when he called his people to Allah for that lengthy period, and his call only increased them in a version he called upon his Lord and said, My Lord, do not leave on Earth, a single living soul from among the disbelievers. And oh my Lord helped me against those who spread Mischeif Allah answered his prayer and and praised him self saying and how excellent was our response.
Allah responded in a way that was exactly what he asked for. He saved him and his family from great distress down all the disbelievers and left his offspring to produce future generations. So all people are descended are descended from Ali Salaam. So that is why you have established would read in the books of history and so on is often called or referred to as the second father of humankind. The first father being Adam Ali Sena. The second father is no hurry Sam is often Faneuil Hall you will see in the books of history and Terry handsewn they say and Abu Thani, are the stories in the books of the Stories of the Prophets is often referred to as the second father of humankind because
when Allah caused the floods to come, he destroyed all of the disbelievers. And the only believers were the few that remain from the family of no Hadees cinema. So you will find in the books of history, that they say that it was from the three or four sons of Noah, that the Arabs came and the Persians came and the Romans came and the Africans came as everyone is set to come from them and Allah knows best and Allah granted his favor. He's in law granting him a fable mentioned that would injure until the time of later generations, because he did well in worshiping the creator and show kindness to his creation. This is Allah's way with those who do good. He causes them to be mentioned
favorably commensurate with their the way they're good deeds. And Allah subhanaw taala praises these prophets and he says salaam when other human you mentioned Salam upon each one of these prophets, Phil ILM in amongst all of the nations, Allah azza wa jal honors people, by making them people that whose legacy remains. So even till today, we still make dua for them, useless, Allah Azza wa salam upon them, that is from the greatest ways that Allah azza wa jal honors a person that after centuries passed after their death or decades, Paschal years past, people still remember them, they make dua for them. Because the nature of humans is that we don't remember people very much, even
from my own family, our parents, we may remember. But how many of us remember our grandparents and make dua for them? If they were Muslims? How many people remember their great grandparents? The nature of humans is you only remember a generation or two at most, maybe you met your grandparents, you'll remember them in your DUA, who remembers their great, great, great, great great nomics to have for people that that's not human nature. So when Allah azza wa jal chooses people that he makes their name remembered, whether it's from the prophets or from the Companions, or from the scholars, that is something which is from the honors that Allah azza wa jal gives to very few of his slaves,
male lawmakers from them.
The words very he was one of Our believing slaves indicate that faith is the highest status anyone can attain and includes all teachings of religion, both fundamental and minor issues because Allah praised the elite of his creation for having faith.

gave him the glad tidings of his help a prophet, one of the righteous that is among the party of Ali Salam, and those who follow this path of prophethood and conveying the message, calling people to Allah and answering that call was Ibrahim Al Hadith, Ali Salam, for he came to his Lord with a pure heart that was free of doubt and desires that prevent one from understanding the truth and acting upon it. If a person's heart is true, if a person's heart is pure, he will be safe from all evil and will attain all good as a result of being pure. Ibrahim was free of ill feelings and envy towards people and other bad attitudes. Hence, he sincerely advised others about Allah starting with his
father and his own people. He said to his father and his people, what are these that you worship? This was a question by way of the non denunciation and establishing binding proof. Is it falsehood, God, God other than Allah that you seek? That is, do you worship but besides Him, false gods that are not God at all, and are not fit to be worshipped? What do you think the Lord of the world will do to you, when you worship others besides Him? This was a warning. This was this was warning them of the require for persisting in their ascription of foreigners to Allah. It was as if he was saying, What do you think of the Lord of the world of the world has shortcomings so that you
ascribed rivals and partners team? Basically, what he's saying to them is, when you decided to take God's besides Allah, you must only have done so because you thought that Allah azza wa jal has within him some weakness, something that he can't give to you. Something that Allah has revealed isn't able to provide for you. So that's why you chosen God's besides Allah. That's why he says, What do you think of the Lord of the Worlds meaning what is your
Thinking of the relax that now you need to see God's besides me subhanaw taala but I'm Alison, I'm wanted to break the idols and find a way to do so. He took, he took the opportunity of their heedlessness, when they went to celebrate one of their festivals, he went out with them. Then he cast a glance at the stars and said, Indeed, I'm sick. According to the sorry, a hadith we owe him only lied on three occasions when he said, Indeed, I'm sick. When he said knee, it was this one, the biggest of them who did it. And when he said of his wife, she's my sister. The aim of the aim of his staying behind and not going out with him was so that he could carry out his plan concerning the
gods. So as people turned away from him and left, when he found the opportunity, then he turned upon their gods, that is, he rushed to them stealthily, and said,
to them said to them, by way of ridiculing them, will you not eat? What's the matter with you, that you do not speak? That is how can it be appropriate for them to be worshipped, when they are more helpless than animals, which he and makes sense for these are inanimate things that do not eat or speak, then he turned upon them, striking them with his right hand. That is, he began to strike them with force until he broke them to pieces except the largest one of them, so that the people who would come back to it, again, have a luxury that suits what other other human barber Binyamin, he struck them with his right meaning by force. And that's what Arabs often use the word right to
enforce because most people are right handed and your right hand has more strength than your left. So the Arabs often say that someone did something with their right not that they literally did it with their right, that they did it with force and power. And that is what's been referred to here that when you came to destroy those idols, he did it with a great deal of force, he smashed them, except the big one that he left alone. And his people came rushing that is running towards him, wanting to attack him. After having investigated the matter. They said, Who has done this to our gods, he must surely be one of the wrongdoers. It was said to them, we heard a young man speaking of
them, he is called Ibrahim, he said and my n and by Allah I have planned, I have a plan for your idols after you leave. And this was all in Surah Ambia we covered so Allah Azza doesn't repeat all of the same incident again in detail. Allah has already mentioned that they went through this investigation who said this what happened? And they realized it was Ibrahim Ali Sinha.
They rebuked him and criticize him. But he said, No, it was this one the biggest of them who did it. So ask them if they can speak. So they started thinking and said to one another, surely it is you who are doing wrong, but then they relapse into their form of stunts off tendency and said, you know, full well that these idols cannot speak Ibrahim said, do you then worship besides Allah that which cannot benefit or harm you in any way? fee on you and on all that you worship besides Allah? Have you then no sense? He said, he said here, do you worship that which you yourselves carve? That is you make it with your own hands and manufacture yourself? How can you worship them? When is you
who make them and fell to show devotion to Allah know when is he who created Who has created you and everything you make. They said, build a fire that is a
tall structure and light a fire in it and throw him into the blazing fire as a punishment for what he had done of breaking their gods. And as we said before the nations have to see Ramakrishna tampereen Especially you will find that this pie was a big fire wasn't just a small fire with a few lungs and a few twigs and branches. They bade made a pyre which is a big fire and they lit it and lit it some of the nation's safe for 14 Nights, they kept it going 40 Days and nights they kept going in order to make it extremely difficult. They said that the fire became so big inspirations amongst the tabular in that it became so big and so fierce in its burning, that the only way that
Ibrahim was thrown into it was be to be catapulted in, they couldn't even get close to it and throw him in too fierce. So they had to make something that they could please Ibrahim Ali snap in, to catapult him into the fire, just to show you the extent of the hatred that they had towards the call of hate. They plan to harm him that is to kill him in the worst manner. But we wrote them low. Allah calls their plan to backfire on them. And he made the fire call and say for Ibrahim, because they did this to him. And he established proof against them and let them look to us. He said I'm going to land where I may freely worship my Lord. That is I'm migrating for his for his sake heading towards
the blessed land, the land of Hashem greatest area. He will guide me that is he will show me what is best for me in both my spiritual and worldly affairs. Elsewhere. Allah tells us that Ibrahim said I will keep away from and disavow you and those on whom you call besides Allah, and I will call upon my lord, perhaps my supplication to my Lord will not remain unanswered. My Lord grant me a righteous son. That was when he when he despaired of his of his people and did not see anything good in them. He asked Allah to grant him a righteous son, by means of whom Allah would benefit him during his lifetime. And after his death. Some of the scholars said that from the etiquettes of dua, from this
verse that we take
Is that the Rahim Allah Islamics is to ask for a son after overcoming that great trial that he had with these people throwing into the fire saved from the fire going through all of that with patients for the large soldier and then he turns to Allah, Allah Salah Israel to make dua. So some of the scholars said that is from the ethics of dua, that when a person is tested in a great trial, and they show patience, and they show steadfastness and Allah Azza then gives them relief, that Allah Israel shows that this relief is a sign that Allah azza wa jal is pleased with what you've done. And so the dua or the door of dua is open. And so you make time as Ibrahim did Ali Salam, Allah answered
his prayer, as he says. So we gave him the glad tidings of a forbearing son. This was undoubtedly undoubtedly smile, because when Allah mentioned the gluttony, that was, you mentioned his son Yaku, after him, and then we gave for the glad tidings of his health and after his help, of Yaqoob, this indicates that his help was one of the one who was not the one who has to be sacrificed. Allah azza wa jal mentioned the story of the sacrifice of Ibrahim and his son, but Allah is telling the story here in Surah, sulfat, doesn't mention the name of the Son which of the two sons was to be sacrificed. And for that reason, there's a difference of opinion amongst the scholars, although from
the time of the companions, you will find there was a difference of opinion upon this issue. And that is because according to the biblical version of the story, it is Isaac is Huck that is being sacrificed. And that is why some of the scholars of Islam went that way because they found that in the scriptures of Bani Israel and Allah Azza doesn't mention it either way, one way or the other. But many of the scholars said notice is married, are you salatu salam he is the beer because the whole of this incident takes place where in Makkah, and the for the symbols of Hajj and the rites of Hajj take place also, and it's happening and come to Mecca is May was the one that was in Mecca. But
the author also mentions or hemella, to Allah another reason. And that is because when Abraham and Islam is given the glad tidings of the son of his son, his heart, the angel says that you will have his heart and after his heart Yaqoob, meaning that from him, you will have a grandson, they say, therefore, for him to sacrifice, his heart has no meaning. Because he knows that he can't be sacrificed. Allah has already given him a promise that he's going to have a grandson from him. So you can't kill someone if he's going to have a son from from grow up and get married and have a son. And they said that this is one of the indications the Kuranda shows, therefore, that it's not as
hard as he said, because he's happy. He was told your progeny, your lineage will be preserved through him. He's married he wasn't told the same thing is married he doesn't know. And that is why it is a way to test as Allah azza wa jal will now mentioned.
Allah described his smile Ali salaam as forbearing, which implies that he was patient had a good attitude was big hearted and was forgiving towards anyone who calls offense. Marilla is described as being patient and forbearing is happening. The Quran is described as being Alene. A person of knowledge is married is described as being patient, because now in the study, we will see, when Abraham Ali Salam comes and he says to his son, I need to sacrifice it for Allah sake. What does he say?
Do as your LORD commanded, that's the epitome of patience. Someone comes to you and says that this is the command of Allah upon you and you submit to Allah subhanaw taala. And so Allah azza wa jal praises, Abraham is very, very set up for this attribute of his then when the sun reached the age where he could help him in his endeavors. That is he reached an age where he was dearest, he could be his father, for there was no longer any struggle in looking after him, and he could now be of benefit to him. Ibrahim Ali Salam said, I see my dream that I must sacrifice you there is I've seen in my dream that Allah is commanding me to sacrifice you. The dreams of the prophets are a
revelation from Allah. And so the author says Muhammad Allah He reached the age that he was now dearest to his father. He's a young boy, there's an age now because children go through different stages, the stage that they use, especially Sunday, they reach where you now you can start taking them with you, you can start sharing the interest so they start sharing the interests with you, you can start making them appreciate certain things. That is a beloved age of a father to a son because now he feels like he's passing down his knowledge, his legacy, he's leaving behind something is giving them knowledge and wisdom that he has gained. And that is what Ibrahim Ali CERAM or that is
the age that is mine had reached. So he's now his most beloved or his most beloved to his father.
What do you think for the Command of Allah subhanaw taala must be fulfilled, is my search showing Patience, seeking reward with Allah and showing obedience to His Father, oh, my father, you as you are commanded that is go ahead and do what Allah has commanded you to do. You will find me philosopher was among the steadfast smile towards his father, that he had resolved to be patient and he mentioned the will of Allah
subhanaw taala. Alongside that, because nothing happens except by Allah's will. So when they had both submitted to the Command of Allah says Ibrahim and his son is made when Ibrahim resolved the to resolve to kill his son, the apple of his eye in obedience to the command of his Lord and for fear of his punishment and smile.
he resolved to be patient and regarding this audio as nothing so as to be too, so as to obey his Lord and please his father, and Ibrahim had laid his son facedown on the ground, so that he could slaughter him. He made him lie with his face towards the ground so that he would not have to look at his face at the moment of slaughter. We call it God has mentioned a number of the books of Tafseer. Remember, the scholars of the tablet said that when he laid his son down to slaughter him, he said to his son, don't look towards me look towards the ground, because of how difficult Allah has really shown to you that this was an easy for Brian Murray CERAM, destroyed from ALLAH SubhanA it wasn't
easy. It wasn't just that Allah commanded him. And so he said, let's go and do it. How difficult it must have been for him after making dua for so many years for a son that Allah gives to my son, the first year has to leave in the city of Mecca has to leave him there without food or drink or water. And now that he survived, and he's reached an age when you can develop a relationship with him, he's not told, you must take that same son and sacrificing by your own hand. We called our team at that tense moment when he was about to do that astounding deed. over to him you have you have already fulfilled the dream. That is you have done what you were instructed to do, and resolve to do it and
took all the measures that were required. And now there is nothing left but to pass the knife over his throat to Allah subhanaw taala. When does he give this honor to Ibrahim Ali salaam, Allah azza wa jal says Villa Muslimah. At the time when they both fully submitted, meaning he was ready to do the act. He had submitted himself he was ready. He was prepared. He had the knife he put him on the ground. He raised it according to some regions of difficile, he raised the knife ready to strike it down on his neck, and that is when Allah azza wa jal called to him because now there's nothing left, the knives moving is coming down. There is no more time for confusion or doubt or second or changing
your mind. And that is when Allah azza wa jal gives to him, that that position and that shows up a loss of habitat wants to see that level of sincerity, that level of truthfulness, that level of honesty from His servants, fellow master when they fully submitted, that is when Allah azza wa jal called out to him.
That's do we worry those who do good in worshiping us giving precedence to seeking our pleasure over their own whims and desires for this with which we tested Ibrahim Ali Salam was clearly the most difficult test that has through which the purity of Ibrahim Ali salaam, his love for his Lord and the fact that he was indeed the co founder of Allah, were made manifest and became clear when Allah bestowed Ismail Ali Salam upon Ibrahim Ali Salam, he loved him dearly. But he was also the close friend of the Most Gracious holy little humor, and close friendship is the highest level of love is a level of love in which there is no room to love anything else, a level which dictates that one,
that one be attached to one's beloved with all ones with all of one's heart as part of it, but it was hard it became attached to his son Israel, Allah subhanaw taala. So I wanted to I wanted to make his entire heart attached to him, and to test how sincere and strong the bond of close friendship was. So he commanded him to slaughter the one whose love had competed with the love of his Lord. But when Ibrahim cave president says the love of Allah, over his own desires and resolve to slaughter his son, or attachment to competitors was removed from his heart were upon there was no longer any benefit in slaughtering him. That is the highest level of Eman. The highest level of human is that
your heart is attached to nothing except Allah azza wa jal, and revolves around nothing except Allah subhanaw taala and every single other type of Portal and attachment and connection and relationship, you can sever for the sake of Allah subhanaw taala, as the Prophet said, whether it's family, whether it's wealth, whether it's position responsive, you can sacrifice everything for the sake of Allah subhanaw taala that is the highest level of Eman and it's extremely difficult to attain, because all of us have those poles and those attachments that we form and emotions and so very difficult to separate all of them for the sake of Allah azza wa jal
and Allah says, For this was clearly the most difficult of tests and ranches, him with a tremendous sacrifice. That is, he was replaced with a great RAM, which Abraham slaughtered, it was great in terms of it being the ransom for his mind. And in terms of it being one of the sublime acts of worship and in terms of it being a means of drawing closer to Allah and precedent to follow until the Day of Resurrection. So it is great in and of itself because of the story and what it signifies great because it is one of the greatest acts of worship to Allah azza wa jal that you sacrifice and slaughter for the sake of Allah subhanaw taala which is why the people of Hajj sacrifice and sort of
for the sake of Allah, the people on the bigger evil of HA, are also taught to make that sacrifice and slaughter for the sake of Allah azza wa jal, and in some Hadith, the prophet Salam said that with every hair that you sacrifice the animal, you have sins that are expected for you.
We left for him a favor. We were mentioned among subsequent generations PSP upon Ibrahim, that is we left for him a favorable mentioned among the leader among the later generations, as was the case among earlier generations, and every subsequent error I put on him it was and is inevitably loved when
radian embrace, peace be upon Ibrahim, this is a salutation to him, as in the verse in which Allah says, say Praise be to Allah and peace be upon His slaves whom he has chosen. Thus do you reward those who do good in worshiping Allah and in dealing with people, we've gotten them a way of way of way out from hardship and grant them a good end and honorable mention fairly, he was one of Our believing slaves, who believed in what Allah enjoyed him to believe in, and whose faith reached a level of certainty, as Allah Subhana Allah says elsewhere, thus we gave him an insight into our laws, mighty dominion over the Heaven and Earth, so that he might be one of those who have certain
faith, we gave him the glad tidings of his help a prophet, one of the righteous, this was the second time this was the second glad tidings of his help. Afternoon, Team Yaqoob. And this is another reason why some of the scholars said there is a smile that is in the story of the sacrifice because they have to ministering the whole story, Allah says, and we gave him glad tidings of his heart, meaning that the first one, therefore, was smart, you know, the human setup, log gave the glad tidings that he will be born and will survive, and his offspring would survive, and that he would be a prophet, one of the righteous, this was multiple glad tidings, and that is from the way that Allah
has honored the Prophet Ibrahim Ali Sinha that every prophet that would come after him would be from his progeny from his descendants. No Prophet came after him except that he was from the descendants of Ibrahim Ali Salam, including the prophets of Allah Allah uses
whether or Canakkale he lied,
is
warming to the team seen on a moon NFC movie in we blessed him and his help among their descendants are some who do good and some who clearly wrong themselves, we blessed him and his help, we bless him in his heart for that is we sent down upon them blessing this implicit meaning of the word Baraka blessing is growth and increase in knowledge, good deeds and offering from their offspring, Allah brought forth three great generation, the nation of the Arabs from, from the offspring of Ismail, the nation of the Israelites, and the nation of the Romans and Byzantines, from from the offspring of his help, meaning the Muslims, the Jews, the Christians, but among their descendants
are some who do good and some who clearly wrong themselves. That is, there are some who are righteous and some who are evil doers, some who are just just and some wrongdoers whose wrongdoing became evident as as a result of their disbelief and ascription of partners to Allah. Perhaps these words are aimed at warding off wrong impressions, because the words we blessed him and his heart may give the impression that all their offspring are included in that in that blessing. And that part of the blessing is that all of their offspring should be doers of good. Therefore Allah subhanaw taala tells us that some of them are doing some good and some of them are wrongdoers. And Allah knows
best, meaning that amongst those nations that are believers and disbelievers as Ibrahim Ali Salaam and sorbitol bakr Allah azza wa jal says that the Rahim Ali Salam, when he was told that he will be given this honor from Allah subhanaw taala. He said, Well, I mean, look, we Yeti and what about my progeny, my offspring, Allah Subhana Allah said Lyon, Allah had the lovely mean that this covenant can be taken by the people of evil and oppression, meaning that amongst your children, they will be righteous, but amongst them they will also be disbelievers,
while I call them and then
we're held on indeed with bestowed our favorite upon Musa and Harun when I Jaina, whom I want all men whom I mean, I didn't go in and out and we saved them and their people from great distress. Why not solemn now? fucka pneumonia law and evening, and we help them so that they became the victors. Well, I think he now Hooman Akita better than was stabbing we gave them Musa and have won the clear scripture.
Why are they now almost sealed off, stamping and guided them to the street path? What are rock now and am Finn feeding and we left for them a favorable mentioned among subsequent nations among subsequent generations. Salam o Nyla. Musa, how on peace be upon Musa and Harbin in Kedah Nika energizing, seeing thus do your word those who do good, in whom I mean, are you bad enough? Meaning very they were among Our believing slaves. Here Allah mentions His favor to two of his slaves and messengers namely Musa and held on the two sons of Avalon. Imran, upon whom he bestowed Prophet and made them His messengers who called people to Allah subhanaw taala he saved them and there are
people from the enemy Pharaoh and helped them against
help them against him until Allah drowned him whilst they were looking on. And Allah sent down to them the clear scripts
