Rania Awaad – Allah Fortifies The Believers

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

Also, another way to understand

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

Al Aziz is to explain it as exalted

00:00:05 --> 00:00:06

in might.

00:00:06 --> 00:00:10

Exalted in might. Meaning what? The one who

00:00:10 --> 00:00:11

cannot be overcome.

00:00:12 --> 00:00:13

The one who is unassailable,

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

invincible.

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

Nobody

00:00:17 --> 00:00:19

can transgress against them, and if they do

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

try to transgress against them, he can humiliate

00:00:22 --> 00:00:22

them,

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

And the one who is

00:00:26 --> 00:00:29

honored. And here the conversation turns to, the

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

Battle of Badr.

00:00:31 --> 00:00:32

In the Battle of Badr, do we know

00:00:32 --> 00:00:33

how many?

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

How many were the Muslims in the Battle

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

of Badr?

00:00:38 --> 00:00:39

Someone said it.

00:00:41 --> 00:00:43

313. Excellent, excellent. Gold star.

00:00:44 --> 00:00:45

313.

00:00:46 --> 00:00:48

And how many are on the other side?

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

A1000.

00:00:51 --> 00:00:54

It's a big difference, right, and actually when

00:00:54 --> 00:00:58

the Muslims went out to fight, Quraish said,

00:00:58 --> 00:01:00

oh are you guys thinking you're so yanny,

00:01:02 --> 00:01:04

you're deluded. You're deluded to think you're going

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

to be able

00:01:05 --> 00:01:07

to handle. You're tiny and you're small and

00:01:07 --> 00:01:09

your new as a group of people in

00:01:09 --> 00:01:11

the army, and we are Quraish.

00:01:11 --> 00:01:13

Are you really thinking you're going to beat

00:01:13 --> 00:01:13

us?

00:01:14 --> 00:01:16

But when somebody transgresses

00:01:16 --> 00:01:18

against the laws of Wichet he has the

00:01:18 --> 00:01:19

ability to

00:01:19 --> 00:01:21

humiliate them, so what does he send?

00:01:22 --> 00:01:24

What does he send? The angels.

00:01:25 --> 00:01:27

He sends angels to fortify

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

the Muslims.

00:01:29 --> 00:01:31

Even the descriptions of some of the people

00:01:31 --> 00:01:34

who are on the Quraysh side who then

00:01:34 --> 00:01:35

later

00:01:35 --> 00:01:37

become Muslim. They tell their story when they

00:01:37 --> 00:01:39

were not Muslim at the time, and they

00:01:39 --> 00:01:41

were on the other side. And they would

00:01:41 --> 00:01:42

say, well, you just would see

00:01:43 --> 00:01:45

swords flying and people dying, and we couldn't

00:01:45 --> 00:01:47

and we weren't seeing people killing them.

00:01:48 --> 00:01:50

Like, what was going on? And more than

00:01:50 --> 00:01:53

anything, what these angels were doing was just

00:01:53 --> 00:01:53

fortifying

00:01:55 --> 00:01:56

the Muslims.

00:01:56 --> 00:01:58

As in to say giving them a sense

00:01:58 --> 00:02:01

of security, comfort knowing Allah is with you.

00:02:02 --> 00:02:03

Strengthening

00:02:03 --> 00:02:04

what was only

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

a third,

00:02:06 --> 00:02:08

not even a third, right, of the population

00:02:08 --> 00:02:10

to, right,

00:02:10 --> 00:02:12

to feel like they were more than

00:02:12 --> 00:02:15

the Quraysh. It's an amazing thing. When Allah

00:02:15 --> 00:02:17

gives you that sense of might and power,

00:02:17 --> 00:02:19

he gives you his might, right,

00:02:20 --> 00:02:22

And nobody can overpower that. And when he

00:02:22 --> 00:02:24

wants to humiliate, he will humiliate.
