Allah is the Greatest, Allah is the Greatest.

00:10:06 --> 00:10:08

I bear witness that there is no god

00:10:08 --> 00:10:09

but Allah.

00:10:09 --> 00:10:12

I bear witness that Muhammad is the Messenger

00:10:12 --> 00:10:13

of Allah.

00:10:14 --> 00:10:17

Come to prayer, come to success.

00:10:18 --> 00:10:21

The prayer has been established, the prayer has

00:10:21 --> 00:10:21

been established.

00:10:23 --> 00:10:26

Allah is the Greatest, Allah is the Greatest.

00:10:26 --> 00:10:29

There is no god but Allah.

00:12:30 --> 00:12:31

There is no god

00:12:31 --> 00:12:40

but

00:12:40 --> 00:12:43

Allah.

00:13:09 --> 00:13:13

Allah is the Greatest, Allah is the Greatest.

00:13:24 --> 00:13:32

Allah is the Greatest, Allah

00:13:44 --> 00:13:47

is the Greatest.

00:13:47 --> 00:13:50

Say, call upon Allah, or call upon the

00:13:50 --> 00:13:51

Most Merciful.

00:13:52 --> 00:13:54

Whatever you call upon, to Him belong the

00:13:54 --> 00:13:57

most beautiful names.

00:13:57 --> 00:14:00

And be not loud in your prayer, nor

00:14:00 --> 00:14:02

be you quiet in it.

00:14:02 --> 00:14:05

And seek between that a way.

00:14:06 --> 00:14:08

And say, all praise is due to Allah,

00:14:08 --> 00:14:11

who has not taken a son, nor has

00:14:11 --> 00:14:16

He a partner in dominion, nor has He

00:14:16 --> 00:14:18

a guardian from humiliation.

00:14:18 --> 00:14:19

And glorify Him greatly.

00:14:21 --> 00:14:22

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious,

00:14:22 --> 00:14:23

the Most Merciful.

00:14:23 --> 00:14:26

All praise is due to Allah, who has

00:14:26 --> 00:14:28

sent down to His servant the Book, and

00:14:28 --> 00:14:32

has not made for it any crookedness, that

00:14:32 --> 00:14:35

it may warn of a severe punishment from

00:14:35 --> 00:14:38

Himself, and give good tidings to the believers

00:14:38 --> 00:14:42

who do righteous deeds, that they will have

00:14:42 --> 00:14:46

a good reward, abiding therein forever.

00:14:46 --> 00:14:49

And He warns those who say, Allah has

00:14:49 --> 00:14:50

taken a son.

00:14:51 --> 00:14:54

They have no knowledge of it, nor do

00:14:54 --> 00:14:55

their fathers.

00:14:56 --> 00:14:58

A word has grown large that comes out

00:14:58 --> 00:14:59

of their mouths.

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

They say nothing but a lie.

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

So perhaps you will cause yourself to weep

00:15:15 --> 00:15:19

over their traces, if they do not believe

00:15:19 --> 00:15:20

in this statement.

00:15:21 --> 00:15:24

Indeed, We have made that which is on

00:15:24 --> 00:15:26

the earth an adornment for it, that We

00:15:26 --> 00:15:28

may test which of them is best in

00:15:28 --> 00:15:29

deed.

00:15:29 --> 00:15:32

And indeed, We have made that which is

00:15:32 --> 00:15:35

on it a steep ascent.

00:15:42 --> 00:15:45

When the young men turned to the cave,

00:15:45 --> 00:15:48

they said, Our Lord, grant us mercy from

00:15:48 --> 00:15:52

Yourself, and prepare for us a right course

00:15:52 --> 00:15:52

out of our affair.

00:15:53 --> 00:15:57

So We called upon their ears in the

00:15:57 --> 00:15:58

cave for a number of years.

00:15:59 --> 00:16:01

Then We raised them up, that We might

00:16:01 --> 00:16:03

know which of the two parties would account

00:16:03 --> 00:16:05

for the length of their stay.

00:16:06 --> 00:16:09

We tell you their story in truth.

00:16:09 --> 00:16:12

They were young men who believed in their

00:16:12 --> 00:16:14

Lord, and We increased them in guidance.

00:16:15 --> 00:16:18

And We bound their hearts when they stood

00:16:18 --> 00:16:20

up and said, Our Lord, Lord of the

00:16:20 --> 00:16:23

heavens and the earth, we do not call

00:16:23 --> 00:16:25

upon any god other than Him.

00:16:25 --> 00:16:28

We would have said, then, that they are

00:16:28 --> 00:16:28

devils.

00:16:29 --> 00:16:32

These are Our people who have taken gods

00:16:32 --> 00:16:34

other than Him.

00:16:34 --> 00:16:37

Why do they not come to Us with

00:16:37 --> 00:16:39

a clear authority?

00:16:39 --> 00:16:41

Then who is more unjust than one who

00:16:41 --> 00:16:44

invents a lie against God And when you

00:16:44 --> 00:16:47

have left them, and they worship none but

00:16:47 --> 00:16:50

God, then go to the cave.

00:16:51 --> 00:16:58

Your Lord will spread for you His mercy,

00:16:59 --> 00:17:01

and He will prepare for you a right

00:17:01 --> 00:17:03

course out of your affair.

00:17:03 --> 00:17:06

And you will see the sun, when it

00:17:06 --> 00:17:10

rises, moving away from their cave to the

00:17:10 --> 00:17:13

right, and when it sets, it moves them

00:17:13 --> 00:17:15

to the left, and they are in a

00:17:15 --> 00:17:16

gap.

00:17:17 --> 00:17:20

These are some of God's signs.

00:17:21 --> 00:17:23

Whoever God guides, he is the one who

00:17:23 --> 00:17:24

is guided.

00:17:24 --> 00:17:27

And whoever He leaves astray, you will not

00:17:27 --> 00:17:31

find for him a guardian guiding him.

00:17:32 --> 00:17:34

And you think they are awake while they

00:17:34 --> 00:17:35

are asleep.

00:17:36 --> 00:17:39

And We turn them to the right and

00:17:39 --> 00:17:43

to the left, and their dogs spread out

00:17:43 --> 00:17:46

their arms in the middle.

00:17:46 --> 00:17:49

If you had looked at them, you would

00:17:49 --> 00:17:52

have fled from them, and you would have

00:17:52 --> 00:17:54

been filled with terror.

00:18:34 --> 00:24:16

Allahu Akbar Astaghfirullah

00:25:39 --> 00:25:41

And that's the end of the surah.

00:25:43 --> 00:25:44

Allah Subh'anaHu Wa Ta-A'la tells

00:25:44 --> 00:25:50

us that Fir'aun tells Musa, Fir'aun

00:25:50 --> 00:25:52

Alayhi Al-A'la Anatollah says to Musa,

00:25:55 --> 00:25:58

I think you are Majnoon, there is a

00:25:58 --> 00:26:00

magic that has been done on you.

00:26:01 --> 00:26:04

Then Musa Alayhi Al-Salam responds politely, and

00:26:04 --> 00:26:10

he says, He says, Ya Fir'aun, you

00:26:10 --> 00:26:15

know, and I know, that everything I'm preaching

00:26:15 --> 00:26:16

is from Allah Subh'anaHu Wa Ta-A

00:26:16 --> 00:26:16

'la.

00:26:20 --> 00:26:23

Surah Al-Fatihah And I know, Ya Fir

00:26:23 --> 00:26:26

'aun, for sure, that you are going to

00:26:26 --> 00:26:27

be Halik.

00:26:27 --> 00:26:29

Halik means you will be destructed.

00:26:31 --> 00:26:33

So I know that Allah Subh'anaHu Wa

00:26:33 --> 00:26:35

Ta-A'la will destroy you at the

00:26:35 --> 00:26:35

end.

00:26:35 --> 00:26:37

Because you are Zalim, you are Jabbar.

00:26:38 --> 00:26:39

And that's the Sunnah of Allah Azza wa

00:26:39 --> 00:26:39

Jal.

00:26:45 --> 00:26:48

Then Fir'aun wanted to kick them out

00:26:48 --> 00:26:52

of the land, kick Bani Israel out of

00:26:52 --> 00:26:52

the land.

00:26:53 --> 00:26:54

You know, Fir'aun was not from Bani

00:26:54 --> 00:26:55

Israel, right?

00:27:04 --> 00:27:06

So, He wanted to push someone to the

00:27:06 --> 00:27:06

limit.

00:27:08 --> 00:27:10

He had this evil intention to kick them

00:27:10 --> 00:27:11

out of the land.

00:27:11 --> 00:27:12

Then Allah Subh'anaHu Wa Ta-A'la

00:27:12 --> 00:27:18

says, And we destroyed him and his followers

00:27:18 --> 00:27:19

altogether.

00:27:20 --> 00:27:22

I will end with this, Inshallah.

00:27:25 --> 00:27:28

And we said to Bani Israel after that,

00:27:28 --> 00:27:29

Inhabit the land.

00:27:30 --> 00:27:35

فَإِذَا جَاءَ وَعْدُ الْآخِرَةِ جِئْنَا بِكُمْ لَفِيفًا When

00:27:35 --> 00:27:37

the time comes, when the Day of Judgment

00:27:37 --> 00:27:39

comes, when it's about the Day of Judgment,

00:27:40 --> 00:27:43

جِئْنَا بِكُمْ لَفِيفًا We are going to bring

00:27:43 --> 00:27:44

all of you together.

00:27:44 --> 00:27:47

Now, I have read a lot of tafasir

00:27:47 --> 00:27:48

about it.

00:27:48 --> 00:27:51

If you read the traditional, classic tafasir, you

00:27:51 --> 00:27:54

will see that they are saying that Allah

00:27:54 --> 00:27:56

Subh'anaHu Wa Ta-A'la says this

00:27:56 --> 00:27:56

is Adul Mahshar.

00:27:56 --> 00:27:59

This is basically where the Day of Judgment

00:27:59 --> 00:28:00

will start from.

00:28:01 --> 00:28:03

فَإِذَا جَاءَ وَعْدُ الْآخِرَةِ On the Day of

00:28:03 --> 00:28:06

Judgment, when it comes, جِئْنَا بِكُمْ لَفِيفًا You

00:28:06 --> 00:28:07

will be resurrected.

00:28:07 --> 00:28:09

And everyone will come to a specific place.

00:28:10 --> 00:28:11

Sheikh Al-Sha'rawi, however, has a very

00:28:11 --> 00:28:14

interesting tafasir for this ayah.

00:28:15 --> 00:28:23

He says, So, now Allah Subh'anaHu Wa

00:28:23 --> 00:28:25

Ta-A'la says to Bani Israel, after

00:28:25 --> 00:28:34

Pharaoh was destroyed, after he drowned, Inhabit Earth.

00:28:36 --> 00:28:37

Al-Ard here is general.

00:28:38 --> 00:28:39

So, inhabit Earth.

00:28:39 --> 00:28:41

Basically, live all over the place.

00:28:42 --> 00:28:42

Everywhere.

00:28:43 --> 00:28:46

فَإِذَا جَاءَ وَعْدُ الْآخِرَةِ When the time comes,

00:28:46 --> 00:28:50

جِئْنَا بِكُمْ لَفِيفًا We'll bring some of you

00:28:50 --> 00:28:53

from Germany, some of you from Russia, some

00:28:53 --> 00:28:54

of you from Ukraine, some of you from

00:28:54 --> 00:28:55

here.

00:28:55 --> 00:28:58

فَإِذَا جَاءَ وَعْدُ الْآخِرَةِ جِئْنَا بِكُمْ لَفِيفًا So,

00:28:58 --> 00:29:04

Sheikh Al-Sha'rawi says, This is basically

00:29:04 --> 00:29:05

one of the alama, one of the signs

00:29:05 --> 00:29:06

of the New Judgment.

00:29:06 --> 00:29:08

That all of them will come in one

00:29:08 --> 00:29:08

place.

00:29:11 --> 00:29:13

So, his tafsir is a little different.

00:29:13 --> 00:29:16

جِئْنَا بِكُمْ لَفِيفًا جِئْنَا بِكُمْ لَفِيفًا من الشتات

00:29:16 --> 00:29:19

You will be scattered all over Earth.

00:29:19 --> 00:29:22

But before the New Judgment comes, we'll bring

00:29:22 --> 00:29:24

you to Ard al-Sham, basically.

00:29:24 --> 00:29:27

And this is where the يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ will

00:29:27 --> 00:29:28

happen, where it started from.

00:29:28 --> 00:29:30

So, this is a very interesting tafsir, in

00:29:30 --> 00:29:31

my opinion.

00:29:31 --> 00:29:35

And it's completely different from what is happening.

00:29:35 --> 00:29:38

So, basically, them coming to one land, this

00:29:38 --> 00:29:41

is like they're coming to their, basically, digging

00:29:41 --> 00:29:42

their own graves.

00:29:43 --> 00:29:43

Okay?

00:29:44 --> 00:29:48

وَاللَّهُ أَعْلَمُ But that's the tafsir.

00:29:48 --> 00:29:51

And then Allah SWT, towards the end of

00:29:51 --> 00:29:54

Surah al-Isra, قُلِ ادْعُوا اللَّهَ وَادْعُوا الرَّحْمَنِ

00:29:54 --> 00:29:56

He's asking, you know, he's saying, ادْعُوا اللَّهَ

00:29:56 --> 00:29:58

وَادْعُوا الرَّحْمَنِ Whether you say Allah, يا رحمان

00:29:58 --> 00:30:02

فَلَهُ الْأَسْمَةُ الْحُسْنَةُ وَلَا تَجْهَرْ بِصَلَاتِكَ وَلَا تُخَافِتْ

00:30:02 --> 00:30:06

بِهَا وَبِتَغْيبَيْنَ ذَلِكَ سَبِيلًا وَقُلِ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي

00:30:06 --> 00:30:08

لَمْ يَتَّخِذُ وَلَدًا And say, alhamdulillah, the one

00:30:08 --> 00:30:10

who has not taken a child.

00:30:11 --> 00:30:14

وَلَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ وَلِيٌّ مِّنَ الذُّلُ وَكَبِّرْهُ تَكِبِيرًا

00:30:14 --> 00:30:17

And say, Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar.

00:30:17 --> 00:30:19

So that's the end of al-Isra, and

00:30:19 --> 00:30:21

then on to Surah al-Kahf.

00:30:22 --> 00:30:24

Inshallah, we will talk about it, inshallah, at

00:30:24 --> 00:30:24

night.

00:30:25 --> 00:30:27

We ask Allah SWT to accept from all

00:30:27 --> 00:30:29

of us, يا رب العالمين اللهم آمين يقول

00:30:29 --> 00:30:32

قولي هذا وأستغفر الله وإلكم جزاكم الله خيرا
