			My name is Subhan.
		
00:00:02 --> 00:00:06
			I'm 26 years old from Tajikistan Allah subhanahu
		
00:00:06 --> 00:00:07
			wa ta'ala in surah al-muhammad chapter
		
00:00:07 --> 00:00:09
			47 verse number 7 says if you help
		
00:00:09 --> 00:00:12
			Allah then Allah will help you Allah subhanahu
		
00:00:12 --> 00:00:14
			wa ta'ala does not require our help.
		
00:00:14 --> 00:00:16
			So why in this verse of the glorious
		
00:00:16 --> 00:00:17
			Quran It is mentioned if you help Allah
		
00:00:17 --> 00:00:19
			subhanahu wa ta'ala then Allah will help
		
00:00:19 --> 00:00:19
			you.
		
00:00:20 --> 00:00:24
			Please answer my question Allah subhanahu wa ta
		
00:00:24 --> 00:00:26
			'ala does say in surah al-muhammad chapter
		
00:00:26 --> 00:00:30
			47 verse number 7 Ya ayyuhalladheena aamanu in
		
00:00:30 --> 00:00:34
			tansurullaha yamsurukum wa yithabbit aqdamakum Oh you believe
		
00:00:34 --> 00:00:36
			if you help Allah then Allah will help
		
00:00:36 --> 00:00:38
			you and he will keep you steadfast Now
		
00:00:38 --> 00:00:40
			in order to understand this verse we need
		
00:00:40 --> 00:00:41
			to look at the context.
		
00:00:42 --> 00:00:44
			We need to read from From surah al
		
00:00:44 --> 00:00:46
			-muhammad chapter 47 verse number 4.
		
00:00:46 --> 00:00:48
			Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala says in surah
		
00:00:48 --> 00:00:51
			al-muhammad chapter 47 verse number 4 when
		
00:00:51 --> 00:00:52
			Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala talks about the
		
00:00:52 --> 00:00:55
			situation of war when the believers meet the
		
00:00:55 --> 00:00:57
			Enemies and Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala tells
		
00:00:57 --> 00:00:59
			the believers to strike the neck of the
		
00:00:59 --> 00:01:01
			enemies and later on Allah subhanahu wa ta
		
00:01:01 --> 00:01:03
			'ala Talks about the reward for the believers
		
00:01:03 --> 00:01:05
			that Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala will give
		
00:01:05 --> 00:01:08
			them paradise And then in verse number 7
		
00:01:08 --> 00:01:10
			Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala says Ya ayyuhalladheena
		
00:01:10 --> 00:01:14
			aamanu in tansurullaha yamsurukum wa yithabbit aqdamakum That
		
00:01:14 --> 00:01:16
			oh you believe if you help Allah that
		
00:01:16 --> 00:01:18
			is if you aid in spreading the message
		
00:01:18 --> 00:01:20
			of Islam if you are obedient to Allah
		
00:01:20 --> 00:01:22
			Subhanahu wa ta'ala then Allah subhanahu wa
		
00:01:22 --> 00:01:22
			ta'ala.
		
00:01:22 --> 00:01:24
			He will help you and he will keep
		
00:01:24 --> 00:01:26
			you steadfast When Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala
		
00:01:26 --> 00:01:28
			says in this verse of the glorious Quran
		
00:01:28 --> 00:01:31
			that oh you believe if you help Allah
		
00:01:31 --> 00:01:32
			What does it mean?
		
00:01:32 --> 00:01:34
			it means that if you are obedient to
		
00:01:34 --> 00:01:35
			Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala if you obey
		
00:01:35 --> 00:01:37
			the commandments of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala
		
00:01:37 --> 00:01:41
			if you Live your life as per the
		
00:01:41 --> 00:01:42
			teachings of Islam then Allah subhanahu wa ta
		
00:01:42 --> 00:01:44
			'ala will help you if you strive in
		
00:01:44 --> 00:01:45
			the way of Allah Subhanahu wa ta'ala
		
00:01:45 --> 00:01:46
			Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala will help you
		
00:01:46 --> 00:01:47
			as Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala says in
		
00:01:47 --> 00:01:50
			surah al-ankabut chapter number 29 Verse number
		
00:01:50 --> 00:01:55
			69 wal ladheena jahadu feena lana hdiyannahum subhulana
		
00:01:55 --> 00:01:56
			wa inna allaha la ma'al muhsineen And
		
00:01:56 --> 00:01:58
			those who strive in our way we shall
		
00:01:58 --> 00:02:00
			surely open up their pathways so if you

00:02:03 --> 00:02:05
			help you and Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala
		
00:02:05 --> 00:02:08

00:02:09 --> 00:02:11
			It is we who require the help of
		
00:02:11 --> 00:02:13
			Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala So if we
		
00:02:13 --> 00:02:15
			aid in doing dawah in spreading the message
		
00:02:15 --> 00:02:18
			of Islam We will find success in this

00:02:21 --> 00:02:22
			find success in this life and the next
		
00:02:22 --> 00:02:24
			and if you look at the lifestyle of
		
00:02:24 --> 00:02:26
			our beloved Prophet Muhammad May peace and blessings
		
00:02:26 --> 00:02:28
			be upon him the first 13 years of
		
00:02:28 --> 00:02:32
			prophethood During the Meccan period the Muslims they
		
00:02:32 --> 00:02:35
			were tortured and persecuted Yet they were patient
		
00:02:35 --> 00:02:37
			and they had hope in Allah subhanahu wa
		
00:02:37 --> 00:02:40
			ta'ala and because they were patient Allah
		
00:02:40 --> 00:02:41
			subhanahu wa ta'ala granted the victory later
		
00:02:41 --> 00:02:43
			on when they went to Medina and during
		
00:02:43 --> 00:02:45
			the Battle of Badr and later on when
		
00:02:45 --> 00:02:47
			during the conquest of Mecca when they came
		
00:02:47 --> 00:02:50
			in Thousands and the Prophet peace be upon
		
00:02:50 --> 00:02:52
			him forgave those people who oppressed and persecuted
		
00:02:52 --> 00:02:57

00:03:03 --> 00:03:05
			in the mercy of Allah subhanahu wa ta
		
00:03:05 --> 00:03:09
			'ala the Sahaba they Were patient and it
		
00:03:09 --> 00:03:12
			paid off and they were granted with victory
		
00:03:12 --> 00:03:14
			they were blessed with victory We see our
		
00:03:14 --> 00:03:17
			Palestinian brother and sisters They are tortured and
		
00:03:17 --> 00:03:18
			persecuted.
		
00:03:18 --> 00:03:21
			Why are they bearing it with patience?
		
00:03:22 --> 00:03:25
			Why are they so strong and brave because
		
00:03:25 --> 00:03:27
			they know that the life of this world
		
00:03:27 --> 00:03:29
			It is only temporary but the home of

			the year after it is everlasting and it
		
00:03:30 --> 00:03:32
			is eternal Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala has
		
00:03:32 --> 00:03:37

00:03:41 --> 00:03:45
			against injustice and Inshallah, they will be granted
		
00:03:45 --> 00:03:49
			with victory Alaa inna nasr Allahi qareeb.
		
00:03:49 --> 00:03:51
			Verily the victory of Allah subhanahu wa ta
		
00:03:51 --> 00:03:54
			'ala it is near And Allah subhanahu wa
		
00:03:54 --> 00:03:55
			ta'ala says in the glorious Quran Wala
		
00:03:55 --> 00:03:59
			tahsabanna allaha ghafilan amma ya'mal al-dhalimun innama
		
00:03:59 --> 00:04:04
			yu'akhiruhum liyawmin tashhasu fihi al-absar and
		
00:04:04 --> 00:04:06
			do not Think that Allah subhanahu wa ta
		
00:04:06 --> 00:04:09
			'ala does not know what the transgressors and
		
00:04:09 --> 00:04:11
			oppressors are doing but Allah subhanahu wa ta
		
00:04:11 --> 00:04:14
			'ala delays Their punishment for a day when
		
00:04:14 --> 00:04:17
			they will see when their faces will be
		
00:04:17 --> 00:04:20
			in horror Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala is
		
00:04:20 --> 00:04:24
			giving respite to the oppressors But a painful
		
00:04:24 --> 00:04:27
			punishment awaits for those people who are oppressing
		
00:04:27 --> 00:04:31
			our Palestinian brother and sisters Many of them
		
00:04:31 --> 00:04:33
			may go scot-free in this world, but
		
00:04:33 --> 00:04:37
			on the day of judgment Allah subhanahu wa
		
00:04:37 --> 00:04:39
			ta'ala will hold them accountable for the
		
00:04:39 --> 00:04:42
			oppression that they have done and Allah subhanahu
		
00:04:42 --> 00:04:45
			wa ta'ala will inshallah reward our Palestinian
		
00:04:45 --> 00:04:48
			brother and sisters with the best reward and
		
00:04:49 --> 00:04:50
			We pray to Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala
		
00:04:50 --> 00:04:53
			that we admit all of the martyrs From
		
00:04:53 --> 00:04:55
			among our Palestinian brother and sisters with janatul
		
00:04:55 --> 00:04:59
			firdaus So what we learn from our Palestinian
		
00:04:59 --> 00:05:03
			brother and sisters is that they are strong
		
00:05:03 --> 00:05:08
			and steadfast That's the reason They are content
		
00:05:08 --> 00:05:11
			with the mercy with the decree of Allah
		
00:05:11 --> 00:05:13
			subhanahu wa ta'ala And they have the
		
00:05:13 --> 00:05:15
			contentment of heart and they know that their
		
00:05:15 --> 00:05:17
			family members who have passed away They have
		
00:05:17 --> 00:05:21
			they have gone to a better place and
		
00:05:21 --> 00:05:26
			they are martyrs Who strove and who died
		
00:05:26 --> 00:05:28
			for the sake of Allah subhanahu wa ta
		
00:05:28 --> 00:05:30
			'ala, so I hope that answers your question
