			Assalamu alaikum. This ayah in,
		
00:00:03 --> 00:00:04
			chapter 5682,
		
00:00:05 --> 00:00:08
			Surah Waka. When Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala speaks
		
00:00:08 --> 00:00:09
			about his favors
		
00:00:09 --> 00:00:11
			to everyone, to believers and disbelievers,
		
00:00:12 --> 00:00:14
			and he talks about the fact that he
		
00:00:14 --> 00:00:16
			created them, he provides for them, and so
		
00:00:16 --> 00:00:17
			on and so forth, and he is the
		
00:00:17 --> 00:00:19
			one who is able to do everything.
		
00:00:20 --> 00:00:21
			Then when he says,
		
00:00:23 --> 00:00:26
			He's talking to the deniers of Allah Subhanahu
		
00:00:26 --> 00:00:28
			Wa Ta'ala. Those who either don't believe in
		
00:00:28 --> 00:00:30
			him or those who don't worship him, he
		
00:00:30 --> 00:00:33
			created them and they worship someone else.
		
00:00:33 --> 00:00:35
			And he provides for them and they thank
		
00:00:35 --> 00:00:37
			someone else. So Allah
		
00:00:38 --> 00:00:41
			is is reproaching them and he's telling them
		
00:00:44 --> 00:00:46
			A lot of translators, they misunderstand this verse
		
00:00:46 --> 00:00:49
			and they say, Do you make a living
		
00:00:49 --> 00:00:50
			out of your disbelief?
		
00:00:50 --> 00:00:52
			This is not the right way of understanding
		
00:00:52 --> 00:00:54
			the verse. The right way is,
		
00:00:55 --> 00:00:55
			do you return,
		
00:00:57 --> 00:00:58
			the favors of Allah
		
00:00:59 --> 00:01:02
			or respond to them by denial, this is
		
00:01:02 --> 00:01:04
			not the right way to pay him back
		
00:01:04 --> 00:01:06
			for his favors.
		
00:01:06 --> 00:01:09
			So the actual meaning of the ayah, do
		
00:01:09 --> 00:01:10
			not repay Allah
		
00:01:11 --> 00:01:13
			back for all these favors with denial because
		
00:01:13 --> 00:01:14
			this is ingratitude.
		
00:01:14 --> 00:01:16
			This is the right meaning of the verse.
