we continue with the Tafseer of surah baqarah and we left off last time at diverse where Allah subhanaw taala again addresses Venice Rafi
and reminds them of his favor upon them in that he made them and favor them over the worlds
and we got to the following idea. Now that we left me in a shape on a regime Smilla Rahmanir Rahim
what will Mala attaches enough sunnah on Neff seen che while

What do you mean
to her do you mean haha
what is not Gina come in early Phaedra is Munna combs who Allah be with
you with a bee Hona Obinna Moyers, you immune and is
Morphe the liquid
become clean.
With the human letter is enough Sunan Neff, su che
after Allah subhanaw taala reminded Bani Israel
of his fever upon them. He said to them You have any straw ie that Corona materiality and ontology ennemi from Milan to Camilla Lila mean, that Allah azza wa jal has favored them over the world and we mentioned that we described what that favoring was and what that means.
Thinking about how Allah subhanaw taala favored them, and gave them what he gave them
and made them supreme in the way they did when they used to obey Allah subhanho wa taala. It may be possible and it may lead to a certain type of complacency.
We are the chosen people.
The Quran says that they used to say in Robina Allahu wa.
We are the children of Allah, and the most beloved to Allah subhanho wa taala. So that said, we're saved.
Not much we need to do there, God's chosen people.
No punishment.
Doesn't matter what you do, right?
Thinking about that, you can see how this might lead to a certain false self confidence and ultimately complacency. So Allah azza wa jal reminds them this is not the case at all.
What telco woman let her does enough so now I've seen che
and fear a Day
and protect yourself from the punishment and the fear of a day
wearing
were in
no soul, no naps

avail any other naps or any other soul in any way. lethargy is enough soon, and Neff cinchy
the Day of Judgment my brothers and sisters everyone is alone.
This is not about
who you are or who you were in the society, your influence your wealth. what people thought of you how people spoke about you? No, no, no, this is today it's you and you alone you and your deeds, lead times is enough soon enough seen and say,
so no soul will be able to save another or avail another in any way. It is all about what you put forth here
in the dunya
so he reminds me it's about eel. No matter what your status was, then.
Let's just say hypothetically, that they were still God's chosen people. This will not help you on the Day of Judgment.
And it will not help you that you are the children of Israel. Your account will not come to save you Allah you Salam, or any of the other prophets of Bani Israel l
lurpak. Z Knupp. sunnah and never seen che.
This day everyone stands alone, and they will be held accountable alone.
Baba Kumar.
On this day,
who you were and your relations will not help. As the Prophet Alayhi Salatu was Salam said in the authentic hadith men up to RB Yama, Lu La Nuestra be UNESCO.
So if your deeds do not propel you forward, Do not raise your status, your nests and your ancestry or genealogy this will do nothing for you.
It's very interesting that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam himself was reminding his own kin. And we know for a fact, the Prophet salallahu Salam is the best of humanity. And the Prophet alayhi salatu salam
has the shafa on the Day of Judgment, right? The intercession
yet when the verse was revealed, when the Rashi writer curl up or Robbie and warn your closest kin, to he called them
Quraysh or people of Quraysh
a Starro and Fusa come by
several InfoSec homebuyer souls yes buyers souls happiness, by your place in the hereafter
by following what Allah subhanaw taala commanded by following the prophets, Allah salah, Mr O and full circle in the uncommon Allah He shows up, I cannot do anything for you. I cannot avail you of Allah anything
in any way.
And then he started calling. Yeah, Benny F la oguni uncoming Allah He che
Yeah, bless him and I'm gonna call him the uncle of the province of Salem, loving the oncoming Allah insha Allah subhana carob Think about that for a second.
The prophets Allah Salam has seen this to his closest people his closest kin. Yeah, Sofia, yeah, I'm Matera Soon Allah, Allah Allah. Allah Asha.
I cannot avail you of Allah, anything on the Day of Judgment. Yeah. The moment Muhammad
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
said Iman, Melly machete,
request of my wealth, whatever you want. The dunya
la Okanagan commune Allah He Sharia law, cannot even help. Fatima bint Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, you find people.
Nowadays, it's all about who you are and who you know.
And this goes very far, in the least corrupt country in the world.
This will go very far. Don't be fooled. It's there everywhere. It will take you quite far on the Day of Judgment. I think you are the descendant of the prophet or Selim. It means nothing doesn't it doesn't mean anything for the uncle and aunt and the daughter of the Prophet SAW Selim nuthatches enough Sunan, Neff. cinchy.
So now the when Israel wants to say we are God's chosen people, if Mohammed Salah Salem can't help the closest
of kin.
Of course, this Aya is telling us that in general, this is the situation on the Day of Judgment, we know that there are certain things as we will see.
But in general, this is the way to think about the Day of Judgment. Everyone is on their own. Okay?
And everyone is looking out for their own benefit.
The closest person to you
you will not care about I know this is difficult to imagine.
What do you mean? I will not care about my son, my daughter the closest to me, my mother, my father, my brother, my sister. And they will not care about me. Yes. Everyone on that day NFC NFC. Me myself and I nothing else. It's difficult to understand or to fathom, but this is the day of judgment that is enough sunnah UNEF sushi
when you Cobell You mean her shafa
What are you how do you mean her adult
and no chef ah no intercession will be accepted.
No intercession will be accepted.
While I do mean her addon is ransom.
So no ransom will be accepted either. Okay.
As we said,
Here,
what is being talked about ultimately,
is that the disbeliever cannot be helped in any way.
The disbeliever who will spend
their eternity in hellfire?
No shafa no intercession? No help.
No ransom. There's no way out. No one can do anything of the sort.
It's very interesting, especially for the thug. And I know we have a father in the audience in this area. And in the next area, we find that they are of the verses which are muted shall be hat there is some similarity with some of the other areas right? So in this area, Allah azza wa jal says, Well, are you Caballo minha? Whether you have seen her
in the other is it switched? When are you coming? You mean her? I don't. Well, I can follow her. Chef. Ah, so firstly, the next one, he first mentioned the added the ransom.
And then the Cefa. In this area?
What Allahu Allah According to
some scholars opinions. The reason this is is because if you look at the chronology
of how
you try to save somebody, from some punishment, even in this dunya, you have some one who has committed a big crime, maybe they're not known
as a criminal, okay. But maybe they've committed some crime,
or maybe committed some crime while in office, political office.
We see that a lot right now.
Who is going to come to the aid of this person, and how,
first of all, his loved ones, his kin will come and try to argue on their behalf, right, male or female, they'll try to argue on their behalf. They'll try to intercede. So someone will come and it will not be enough. So they'll bring someone else and someone else.
One person after another chef ha intercession.
And they will talk to the lower court judge and then the higher court judge and then the supreme justice, and they'll keep going up right.
And eventually, a lot of times the intercession will be successful.
And they will agree and this person will be released or forgiven or whatever it may be. So the first step is intercession.
Intercession didn't work. The next step would be
ransom Adela
Okay. will run some him How much do you want?
1 million,
2 million 10 million
a ransom and this exists and you see it across in all of the systems of the world. Allah azza wa jal is telling us, your will piano is not like what you know in the dunya
there is no Shiva, because this is not a corrupt judge.
This is not a corrupt personality. This is Allah, the infinite justice is with Allah azza wa jal. You couldn't be in the biggest and most important person in the world, your intercession will not help
the intercession of no one can save someone
who is destined for the hellfire.
This is Allah subhanho wa taala. We're talking about.
Allah doesn't need you
or your intercession intercession sometimes why will this person except the intercession because this is an important person as well. You will have my back I'll rub yours.
I get you know your nephew out. Or your relative out you help me later on? Are you going to help Allah subhanaw taala Do you think he cares about your intercession?
Now when minha shafa there is no Shaha for
someone who is destined for the hellfire.
And there is no ransom either you cannot ransom them either.
Allah subhanaw taala is showing us that all of the avenues are closed.
Whether your combat Amin has shafa whether you have women her okay. No intercession, no ransom
will get him out by force.
We will not allow
this corrupt system to take our relative, our friend
we'll find a way to get him out to save him.
Well, I hope you won't
forget it. You want to try to get them by force? You want to try to help them in any way possible. While home means our own and there will be no way to save this person.
So Allah azza wa jal told them, forget it.
Case closed, Allah azza wa jal has spoken. Allah has decreed, and it is finished. It's a done deal. This is the way things go in the court
of infinite and ultimate justice.
As we said, there is the Shiva of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, but this Shiva applies to whom?
To the believers,
though they may be
disobedient, or they may have committed sins, or God forbid, they may have to spend some time in hellfire. This is where we talk about the shafa of the Prophet salallahu Alaihe Salam.
The Prophet SAW Selim will not intercede on the part of someone who is destined for hellfire.
And Allah the intercession of anyone is not accepted except if Allah subhanaw taala allows it.
Allah azza wa jal tells us also in the other is similar Aya was Shall we Oh woman. Now Yeah, Dizzy Whalley do not know unwell. Well, I'm alluding who are jazz in unwelded Isha and Allah, fear that they are similar age where a father will not be able to avail their child and their child will not be able to avail their father
Subhanallah
this is the situation on the Day of Judgment Wella whom you sorrow
then Allah subhanho wa Taala starts mentioning some of the blessings
upon Bani Israel.
And the ultimate blessing is the fact that he saved them from Pharaoh Hound and his people what even a Jaina come in
And if you
notice Now here Allah subhanaw taala is the one who saved them
What if Nick Jaina calm min L if you're around?
We have saved you from any fear around
this here there is mention of any fear
not fear around himself how come
very interesting
we know that the Tyrant is around
and we know that he is the one who commanded
His followers to do what they did to Benny Surah Al
here alifair around L in different places
can mean the direct family.
A lot of times it can be the direct family and we use that word in our Salah as well to mean the family of Prophet Muhammad Sallallahu Sallam the family of Ibrahim Ali Salam. So Al means the family
but Al can also mean the followers
the followers, the followers of Frauen
what even the Jaina coming early fit home
yeah, so Munna consew A ladder with a Beholder como esta Hoon?
And we'll get back to that. Once we start talking about, yes, we're gonna come through a ladder.
Here we have the first mention of fear around
this despicable tyrant
who committed some of the worst crimes and worst Cofer
the world has seen and thus, he is mentioned over 60 times in the Quran.
For our Lord,
who is this frown, and in fact, whenever you want to mention a tyrant or a dictator, you might even use the term Pharaoh.
Pharaoh Hound brothers and sisters is a title.
It's a title for some of the kings of Egypt at a certain period of time.
Possibly sometime
because when we talk about
Egyptian history, ancient Egyptian history, we talk about dynasties. Okay. So in the time of specifically the 18th
and the 19th dynasties, we talk about Farah hyena
kings whose name was Farah out.
Okay.
So, frown is a title for someone who is the king of Egypt. Similarly, you may hear when you read the Hadith, you will hear possibly Kisara
cos rose, and a title for someone who was the ruler of Persia.
How are you sir?
Caesar,
leader of the Romans to back a leader for the people of Yemen, who was a calf here. Okay, specifically in that case, right. So here for hours a title
and for hours mentioned throughout the Quran.
And it's very interesting to
look at some of the research about who this round was
the first round of Musa because there are far I know, there are many frowns.
But who was this fit around?
Who did what he did?
Who made these tall claims that he did about him being God?
Carla Anna buco. He said, I am your Lord Most Hi.
Who is this round? Who had the boldness to make these claims?
And you will find different opinions Subhanallah for a long time, based on a discovery in the before 2000 In the end of the 20th century, for a long time.
We thought this film was Ramses the second, right?
And based on
forensic science and looking at the body of Ramses the second, and seemingly that he died by drowning, okay, because they found minerals in his body and so on and so forth. So
there was speculation that indeed, the crown of Musa sometimes they also call him the crown of the pharaoh of the Exodus, okay, the exodus of the Bani Israel was Ramses the second, but then you have other opinions as well. Okay. So you will hear other other opinions?
Some say the son of Francis the second,
there is an opinion also that is Amenhotep the third,
who came way before Ramses the second, how do we begin to look at that, and I'm not going to
say give a final
decision on this because this is an issue Subhanallah about which there is some debate, and it seems the jury is still out. And what we have brothers and sisters is the Quran.
And the Quran, Nick evidence, right? And then it is up to researchers to see, does this fall in line with
this route or not? Is this different? Does the description of Quran that we see in the Quran
in different places does it apply to the historic information about that Pharaoh
such that we can say this is the Pharaoh or not
Subhan Allah the Quran did not mention his name.
did not mention his name.
But it is always talking about the same person.
And how Allah subhanho wa Taala destroyed him and drowned him Subhanallah I found a Christian scholar, claiming that
because he wanted to say that it is meant Hotep the second
and I meant Hotep The second was not drowned.
And he lived after the Exodus. So he said actually the Bible does not prove that he drowned.
What does the Quran say?
Did he drove
he drove very clearly. Right? And Allah subhanaw taala said that we are going to preserve his body for Leo maluna Ji kabhi botanic, Lita, Kunal, even honey,
so that you may be assigned for those after you.
This is the way we do research.
We have the Quran the genuine unadulterated, untouched word of Allah subhanaw taala.
And we'll see Subhanallah but future research shows. But I just wanted to mention that really quickly because it is interesting. But Allah says it doesn't tell us who it is because ultimately what matters is the lesson that is derived from it. And ultimately what they did to Venice.
What even Egina come in and if Iran We saved you from the followers of Iran
and by extension for our himself, who commanded those followers in early if you're only a su Munna, come Sue Allah.
They made you taste the worst of punishment.
They persecuted you in the worst way.
And notice, yes, we'll move on that Kong brothers and sisters, it is plural.
It didn't attribute all of that persecution to surround himself, though we know for a fact. This is for one. This is one of the worst tyrants the world has seen. Of course it was my commander from
the blame is on whom?
Of course it's all around. And Allah subhanaw taala talks to for the hour directly in the Quran.
What about his followers? Do you think they are innocent?
Do you think they are exonerated of blame?
Maybe
They will come on the day of judgment and they will say Oh ALLAH
hand move I'm just a slave fulfilling orders
this will not be accepted on the day of judgment
be very careful
of helping a tyrant or dictator
meeting out in justice to people be very careful of helping them with a single word
or aiding or abetting them in any way.
Allah subhanaw taala mentions anything around the ones who actually did this did fit around go and slaughter their children
Yes, but how did not frown commanded?
His followers
are the ones who did it his cronies
the ones who used to praise him day and night they're the ones who went and committed those crimes they are just as complicit
and to blame as for how himself
what even a Jaina come in and if you round
Yes Who Munna come Sue? Allow them you the beholder? Come while you're stuck, you're gonna need a Wi Fi then it can
become a hobby.
What did they used to do?
Why were they slaughtering their children
and keeping the girls alive?
It is narrated that what happened was the following
that frown for our to Allah saw
a dream.
He saw a dream that there was a fire coming from Jerusalem.
And it was coming and it was burning the houses of the Egyptians, his followers. But it wasn't touching the houses of many Israel.
So he called everyone to explain this very strange dream.
And of course, as you know, even to this day, people believe in fortune tellers and soothsayers and all kinds of weird things, right? The Magicians in his time, come and tell me what's going on what is this dream? This is one narration in another narration, he just he was told he was told by some of his followers or his entourage, that
many extra yield.
There is going to be someone that will come out of Bani Israel
and
they will supplant you. In other words, they will take your place, you will be destroyed.
Your power will be no more because of this person from Bani Israel. And this is how they explain the dream to him as well.
So what's the solution?
The solution is
if that is the case, someone is going to come out of many slavery, okay, will slaughter their children? Lord,
when you think about it, what is this oppression and persecution, that when he is ill
faced? It's really something
of course
regardless of what they are doing now, and how they are persecuting what they see as their enemies, but let us be objective, this is a serious level of persecution and Allah azza wa jal is the one who tell told us try to imagine it for a second. Try to imagine the fear in this town in this place. Try to imagine how how did they slaughter
these newborns?
Try to imagine the steps that have to be taken. Okay.
Of course, for people who have lived through the the tyranny that is happening in Syria, some of that we have seen the slaughtering of Children of Men
Women Subhanallah so you begin to get an idea. Okay of what's happening, but this is even worse.
They are going around
and monitoring.
Seeing
where are the pregnant ladies? Where are the houses where there are pregnant women?
Okay, first month second month. How do they know? Oh look, her belly is getting bigger and bigger. She's about to give birth. Get ready.
Some luck
when she's about to deliver there's a new baby.
Here's her newborn boy girl.
Girl.
Chicken Chicken stay alive. Boy.
Slaughter
Yeah, Allah. What is this persecution? What is this tyranny?
So we started slaughtering
the children of Bani Israel.
And the newborn boy will be slaughtered.
And he kept on doing that.
And Allah subhanaw taala decreed that some of their elders were dying off as well.
Many Israel is now predominantly female.
Where are the males, there are no more males left.
And you can imagine how this will affect how now and the Egyptians, because part of what Frauen was persecuting Bani Israel with as well is that he used to subject them to menial labor.
The jobs that no one wants to do.
This was the last of many slavery. Now the Egyptians would have to do that.
So this they complained to him.
There are no four males left.
So he said okay, then
we won't slaughter every year
will slaughter for one year, and then next year, we will leave them. So it was every alternative.
Subhanallah Harun alayhi salam,
the brother of Musa alayhis salam was born in the year where there was no slaughter. So he was left alive. The Musa alayhis salam, who is going to destroy you, and your kingdom, and your tyranny, was born in the year where he was supposed to be slaughtered. Allahu Akbar. But Allah saved him as we will see in sha Allah.
So this is what historical narrations mentioned.
And Musa was born in that year,
when they were slaughtering the babies
were staggering in the setup.
And they were leaving the girls alive. Why?
For the same reason,
because they figured it's not going to be a girl who's going to lead to the destruction of their home and his kingdom. Furthermore, that itself is punishment. This is part of the persecution. Can you imagine the mothers of these children that were slaughtered?
The sisters, right, all of the females and of course, they were taking them as slaves and subjecting them to menial labor, and possibly much worse than that as well.
Subhanallah this was a punishment as well, leaving the girls were stuck UniSA accom someone might say this
is a common Arabic women, not girls.
It tells you that the girls were left and they were left to grow up to become women.
And living with this disgrace living their life remembering how they lost their newborn sons. They're so Munna consew other youths
como estas Leonessa cool. Wi Fi than a cool
rhombic Mojave
Wi Fi they come and there is in that burlap rhombic
Oh from your Lord that is great, great Bella Bella brothers and sisters, Allah subhanaw taala mentions Bella, sometimes to mention that in reference to
evil and sometimes in reference to something which is good. So that's why Allah azza wa jal says well, Bella Luna whom Bill has an earth he was saying,
right?
Bella can be something good that Allah azza wa jal decrees for you and it is a Bella why because Allah is a test. So it's not necessarily something bad, could be good, but it's still a test and Allah azza wa jal tests
even our best Radi Allahu Han
and others of them have a serene their opinion was that here Bella is a reference to Allah saving you.
Were fee then it can Bella meaning that there is a Bella there's a test in this in that Allah saved you. This good that Allah did for you is a test for you. This is Bella. So a test through something good.
Okay, but it can also be the other meaning which is a test the persecution that you faced and you are subjected to. This is the Bella This is a test
and possibly both. So
the persecution is a Bella Bella on Algrim a great Bella and saving you from that is also a test to see if you will thank Allah subhanaw taala and be grateful to him
for the fall again this area is one of those as well. Because in the in the other is what Rahim Allah subhanaw taala says
we assume Allah moolah comm su l either way, you will then be Hoonah
cool. Why is the Hyuna Lisa, wait a second words the difference? The wall? There's a word difference, right? The father will recognize that.
So, in Al Baqarah, you have the Hoonah Yasumoto consew al Adavi. You then
what does this mean? It means that they are subjecting you to a serious persecution.
You then behind the icon meaning what was that persecution that they are slaughtering your newborn sons and they are keeping your girls alive? Newborn girls alive?
in Surat Ibrahim Yes, who woulda consew and other why he was a Beholder Abernathy. accom they are subjecting you to the worst persecution and torture.
And what? And
they are slaughtering your newborn sons. What does that mean?
It means
subjecting you to the worst punishment and torture is different than and additional to the slaughtering of your newborn sons.
So there's more.
And we said that part of it was the way they were persecuting them. Okay, and oppressing them,
forcing them to do
menial labor and some of the worst jobs and so on right?
Taking them as slaves. So this may be a sumo that comes to alloga. And then furthermore, they are slaughtering your newborn sons and keeping the girls alive.
Then one may ask, one of the fathers may ask, why here, there's no one and here there is a well
then it may be well Allahu Allah. That here in Surah Al Baqarah. Allah subhanaw taala is just mentioning the issue in general, without more details.
In surah, trib Rahim, Allah azza wa jal tells Musa and this is Musa Ali Salam reminding Bani Israel.
So he mentions Yasumoto consew. Alana while you
are calm, and before that Allah tells him where the killer home be a yam in LA and remind them of the blessings of Allah. So Musa alayhis salam does so
And with that one extra detail, showing that there is more to the persecution that they were subjected to
weigh them down, I can use the
neurotic family. The fact that Allah azza wa jal just saved you from PhilaU. In that Musa alayhis salam took you out, removed you from that most difficult situation. This is Bella, this is a test. This is a great blessing that Allah azza wa jal has blessed you with what you should be grateful for, and only those who were subjected
to that persecution, know how important it is that they were saved from it belongs to Allah, Allah Allah, Allah Allah wa salam or about a kinda Nabina Muhammad. What does it mean long for you?
