Taleem al Quran 2012 – P23 242D Tafsir Al-Zumar 22-31

FMLN shadow Hala, who saw the radical Islam me for who I now know the middle of the

two types of people are mentioned over here. And Allah subhanaw taala asks us a question is being asked and it's a rhetorical question to provoke thinking FMLN shadow Hala, who saw the Rahu who is best who was better, the one whose chest Allah has opened up for Islam, so that he is a con light from his Lord, meaning he has clarity he has guidance, he has Islam in his life because Allah opened up his heart to Islam, who is better, this one or the other whose heart is closed to Islam, such that for why you know little kharsia to Kuru Bhuvan, winvic Rilla. Then wall to those people whose hearts are hardened against the vicar of Allah, that their heart does not melt. It does not open up

to Islam, it only becomes harder and harder. Hola, ecoffee, Ebola lima beans such are in clear error. Two types of people are mentioned over here and we are being asked who was better, whose way is better, whose consequences result is better. And then Allah Subhan Allah says, Allah Who knows Xena SNL Hadith keytab and muda Shabbiha. Allah has revealed the best speech the problem is not the Quran. It's not what the vicar of Allah, it's with the hearts. What kind of a heart is within a person?

Because Allah has revealed the best speech such that is nothin that is with a shabby one, that one part of it resembles the other part. So it is consistent, it is coherent, there is no contradiction within the book of Allah. And it is nothing funny, in which is repetition. Structure is Roman who do you know the Lavina York Shona of Gohan those who truly fear their Lord, when they listen to the Quran, their skins shiver don't matter Lilo Judo do home work who know boom, Isla Victrola, and then their skins and their hearts soften for the deacon towards the vicar of Allah. Meaning when the Mercy of Allah is mentioned, then their hearts find tranquility also. Because the Quran is

essentially remembrance of Allah. So as they listen to the Quran, they experienced both fear as well as hope that he Kahoot Allah He had the the HEMA in your shot. This is the guidance of Allah that He gives to whomever he wills or may yield linen now who from Allah Humann had and whoever Allah sends astray, that no one can guide him. Again, what do we see in this ayah two types of people, one those who are guided by the Quran or experience as mentioned here and then those will may yield Lin Allah from Allah woman has those who are not guided and they the no one at all can guide them. So again, we see contrast two types of people FMA ducky be what he and then the theme continues, if a man is

far than man who yet happy, he will shield he will guard he will protect Who will he protect himself because it does require is to take some shield to protect oneself and Taqwa is called Taqwa because it is such fear of Allah that causes you to protect yourself against punishment against the Wrath of Allah against harmful consequences, whether it is by doing certain things or avoiding other things. So after May, ducky, we were G, the one who will shield meaning himself, how the what we hear with his face, meaning the only thing by which he can protect himself is with his face. Now, if you think about it, if something harmful was coming your way, and you're shielding yourself with your face,

are you actually protecting yourself know that effort to protect oneself is a name because what this means is that a person is going headlong into something that something dangerous, something harmful is coming straight a person's way and he's not able to protect himself. So yet the key word hee hee, soo Eliza evil punishment is the Cosby you see over here yet the key be what he is, the copy is to take shield behind something. So what this means is that his face will be a shield against the fire, as in this person will be flung into the Hellfire without any protection. So he will take it all first and foremost on his face. And what is this Sue adab evil punishment and this is referring to

hellfire, yellow multi Yama on the Day of Judgment. You see if something harmful is coming your way. Generally, we protect our face

Isn't we will put our hand we will put our arm. If anything, we will bend our face. Anything to protect our face hand gets injured even if a person is falling. Right. A person generally puts his hand out our mouth in order to protect the face. It's like a reflex. But when a person is thrown into hellfire, and he will not be able to guard his face even why because hands will be tied

in Niger Ana Fionna him of lala land in the next arm of land for here in a pond for homework Mahone a person will not be able to bend his face down even why this evil punishment will appeal and it will be said live volley mean to the wrongdoers ruku, malcontent, tuxedomoon tense that which you use to earn meaning you brought this upon yourself. Allah did not deprive you of guidance, He created you with reason He created you with curiosity, and he sent guidance and he sent the best speech to wake you up and he sent difficulties in your life to shake you but you never you never protected yourself from wrong. Now you will not be able to protect yourself from punishment goo coma

quantum taxi Moon Canada he denied who a Levine I'm in public him those before then remember this is a murky surah and primarily it is the people of Makkah who are being addressed. So those before them also denied meaning those before the people of Makkah they also denied their messengers. And what happened for at our homeowner available, then the punishment came to them mean Hazel Leia Sharon, from where they did not even perceive they did not even expect for other hormones Allah so Allah made them taste. Allah made them experience l his year humiliation Phil hired the dunya in the life of this world. Because in the IOER we learned about punishment of the Hereafter a person may think

oh, it's far. I wonder if it's even going to happen. Allah subhanaw taala brings a close look at this. Look at what happened to people before did they live forever? No, but other to whom Allah who is here Phil hieratic. Dunya we see in this world even that a person could live a life of crimes but then eventually what happens? He suffers the consequences of his own actions. He suffers humiliation and disgrace in this life,

while our other will Herati Akbar and this should remind us that Surely the punishment of the Hereafter is far greater, low can we are alone, if only they knew, if only they knew that the punishment of the Hereafter is far greater, far more severe than they would not commit the crimes they are committing. And Allah subhanaw taala has made arrangements so that people know and what is that? One of robbing Elena's and certainly we have struck for people. He has a Quran in this Quran, Min Conley methyl every kind of example. In the Quran, Allah has given every example every example meaning every essential example that people need in order to understand the truth. It doesn't mean

that the Quran is a book of examples. What this means is that every relevant necessary beneficial example is given in the Quran. Why are examples given in the Quran? Because through examples, we are able to understand concepts better. Something that's abstract becomes more real and more concrete.

So in order to explain matters to people in order to make the matter clear, Allah subhanaw taala has given many examples in Coonley method, every type of example, y la la homea Tada karoun so that they might remember, they might take heed. What's the message over here? It's not that Allah has deprived people of guidance. No, Allah has sent guidance he has clarified guidance. So if anyone is an error, if anyone suffers in the Hereafter, it's not Allah's faults, no way.

As we see in the previous is due to Macintosh tuxedomoon You brought this upon yourself? Full Annan, where are the examples pull on and it is a Quran that is Albanian, Arabic and Arabic Quran because the first recipients were who? Arabic speaking people. This doesn't mean that for the non Arabs, this Quran is not a message for them. No, Allah subhanaw taala chose Arabic language because the first recipients were Arabic speaking. And Allah chose the Arabic language also because of its eloquence and its clarity, and its precision and its beauty. And we see that examples are best English

treated in the Arabic language. So Walcot Gorod gnarly Nassif, he has a Quran even Coonley method. And this method is in what Quran an hour of Asian and Arabic Quran? A very descriptive vivid language, isn't it? So if you think about it, every word in the Arabic language is so deep. It's so deep. Yes, we go into further detail because we are studying the Quran. But the language of the Quran Arabic itself is so descriptive that it really makes things clear to you. Go ahead.

As watch watching this lecture yesterday, and it the speaker said that Arabic is like one of the or it's like one of the only languages that hasn't changed as much as other languages have over time. Like if we look at even English like 100 years ago, it's hard to understand, like what they're talking about, no less than 100. You mean if you look at the earliest translations of the Quran into the English language, earliest that were done, can we read them and understand? No,

forget about understanding it's difficult to even pronounce the words properly. Right? Yes, there was a lecture here by your hair Ibrahim and they were mentioning but the examples here are examples in the Quran. It was particularly talking about relationships and the way he explained it wasn't the same that every single relationship is explained in the Quran for example, right? There's a father son relationship, there's a mother child relationship, there's a brother Brother relationship, right? And there's a spouse, husband wife relationship, every single relationship is mentioned and even to the husband wife, there's a submissive wife and a tyrant husband or there's a good husband

and a bad wife. And every single type of relationship is explained through example. So likewise, you know, even other examples or everything is sort of explained in different stages. And if you think about it, an example is not necessarily mentioned as an example as in this is an example verb Allahu mathan. And but also, people can find example in stories that are mentioned. Right? So Quran and Arabic again, this is an Arabic Quran. Leila, you watch, like it or not other than the watch. One having a watch what is it we watch deviance? So viral theory watch, meaning the Quran does not have any deviance, it is without any deviance. There is no a wedge in the Quran. What is a wedge mean or

what is literally when something is twisted bent. And you see there is physical deviance. So for example, a call is not straight, it is bent. Alright? A table the legs are not straight. There is a problem with it. It's always wildly, right the floor is not even. So there is physical crookedness. And then there is intangible crookedness also. Like for example, in one's intention

appears to be very genuine. But in reality a person is very selfish looking out for their personal benefits. Like this is very much. So I which is physical.

Inconsistency or physical crookedness, and very wedge is intangible crookedness. So over here we see the word very much there is no wedge in the Quran. Meaning there is no deviance in the Quran, there is nothing in the Quran that is harmful, in the sense that a person would read, apply, follow and would suffer there is nothing in its consequence harmful for people No, everything is full of hate for people there is no deviation in the Quran, why Allah Allah Who me at the home so that they may save themselves, they may protect themselves. So the instruction in the Quran is such that will protect people that will save people

not such that will put people in danger law Allah Who me at the cone and now Allah subhanaw taala gives an example. Bharat Allahu methylene Allah gives an example Allah strikes and example Allah has struck an example. Remember, a key Surah So this is an example with regards to toe hate and check.

An example that really illustrates the reality of ship and the reality of though here is an example of who Raju learn of a man

an example of a man

what kind of a min fee he in him, meaning concerning him shanaka partners, he showed a cat Shadowcat plural of the word Sharif, who is surely one who share something with another right. What this means is a person who is owned by partners, meaning he is not owned by one master, rather, he is owned by

multiple masters and those masters are Shadowcat

right? Meaning they all have an equal right over him not that one has greater and the other has lesser, they all have equal right over him.

And these masters these Shabaka are Luca Sharky, soon

Ill mannered, always quarreling.

The word with a Schottky soon as the plural of muda shack is and with a shack is is from check isa she incap seen and Shakira is to be rough crude, mannered, Ill mannered, really rude, abrupt.

Understand, you know, generally when a person is for example upset with somebody, they're gonna say, I hope you don't mind however, such and such in such a why did they say I hope you don't mind because I'm upset with you. And I care about your feelings. However, I have a big problem with what you did. This person is at least somewhat polite and the other is extremely harsh and crude. What on earth are you doing and swearing and you know, putting the other down? This is Chuck Issa like to be rough, crude, Ill mannered All right. And the word shack Assa is to oppose to oppose, because generally people become rude and rough and ill mannered when they are in a position of opposition to

another.

Right? Mocha shack is with a shark is not a fairy. Now there's multiple parties involved, right? With a shark is with a shark, you soon are those who are quarreling and arguing with one another. But how do you think quarreling and arguing with one another? In what manner?

Exactly very rudely, roughly.

So with a shaky soon, these masters are almost a shaky so beings are always fighting with each other, over who, over the course led

by each greedily demanding from the slave thing with each other over what they demand from the slave, what's going to happen to the course land?

You know, for example, if there's a mother,

and she has three children, right, and all three of them are very unfortunate and are very similar in their ages. Few months apart, for example, or barely a year or two apart, right? What happens is the poor mother picks up one child, and other one comes running. Alright, and pulls the foot of the child that she's holding. All right. Have you seen these things? If you've experienced them in your life, your mother who is she to carry and who is she to put down?

She's hugging one and do other come out of extreme jealousy. You understand what's going on? This is what the shack is. These are children at least so it looks cute. With a shack you soon are adults. selfish, greedy, rude, Ill mannered, just fighting, quarreling with each other. Why did you call him? No, I want him right now. I gave him a task. Why did you tell him to do this? You understand what's going on? So moto Sharky soon? What is it? Sure all these masters are basically concerned about themselves. They don't care about the core slave. Who are they concerned about? themselves, each is really demanding from the slave what he wants, without any care concern for the slave or

anybody else. What do you think about the life of this slave?

What do you think about his life is living a very happy, very happy life very peaceful life? No.

It's extremely difficult. I think as women we can relate this very well. Because for a woman, typically she has to manage between, let's say her house, even within the house, the laundry in the kitchen, and the children and the husband and the guests and the inlaws in the grocery and this and that and the studies, so many things, right. It's as if you were being pulled from so many directions, you don't know who to listen to, and who not to listen to, especially if people have some difference. Like for example, the father and son. They have some issue on the core mother or poor wife, she stuck

to understand what's going on.

Maybe from the other side, we can understand if a husband has to please his mom, and why. What happens to him? Life says one thing mother says the other thing

you understand what's going on such people? Do they live happy, peaceful lives? No way. Life becomes so difficult for them. They just want to quit and run away. Yes. So in India, we'll see that there are joint families and there is one servant trying to please a mother in law the daughters in law, different people in the house. This is what I'm reminded of. The Shack isn't

so with a Jackie soon What did you learn? And then there's

Another person who is Salomon belonging exclusively? Yoo hoo. Leila Julian to a person Oh man. He has only one master. Now the word Salem seen la meme. What the salah mean, and someone is Salim it means they are safe, secure. All right. So Salah means Salam, Islam is to surrender. Right? So Salem is to surrender entirely to someone belongs exclusively solely and indisputably to someone and is the essence of Islam. In our religion, Islam, our religion, what is it, that we surrender ourselves entirely, wholeheartedly completely to Allah and Allah alone? Not our laps? Not our money, not our career, not people, Allah alone. This is Islam. So what did you learn Solomon Sirajul.

Another man who belongs exclusively just one then Allah asks us, hell yes, that we aren't even salah.

Are these two equal? Yes, though we N? They both equal? Are they both equal? Motherland example as an in comparison, when you compare these two people, are they the same?

Are they the same? What's the answer? No, I'll handle

Hamdulillah you understand?

Why Alhamdulillah is here Alhamdulillah that any person who reads this will understand that yes, such two people are not the same. Right? All praise is to Allah Valak Thoreau whom lair Allah moon, but still majority of them do not know.

What's the message in this aisle? What do you think? What are we being taught through this example?

Yes, a contrast is being made over here between two ways of life. One way of life is focused on Allah subhanaw taala that a person realizes my mastery is Allah. My ultimate goal is to earn Allah's pleasure. My ultimate goal is to save myself from Allah's wrath do not do anything that is displeasing to my Lord. This is one way of life one goal and the other is a person is scattered, scattered

between the creation He is in love with one thing afraid of another, extremely afraid of something hopeful for another He scattered his matters are scattered will he be at peace? No, he won't be at peace.

So peace can only come through what though hate this is the difference between hate and ship. So he is being explained through law Julen Salama Lea module and shake is being explained through the module and finish law cattle motor Sharky soon.

There's a huge difference in the lives of these people. You see, the creation people are such that if we try to please one person, definitely another will be displeased.

This is a fact this is a reality.

If we try to do one thing, another will have to be compromised.

Because we're limited in our capacity, isn't it? Has it ever happened with you that finally you get on very good terms with a particular individual? At the cost of making somebody else? Maybe slightly upset? Does that happen?

You have friends?

What happens? Your friend is upset with you. You didn't talk to her for a long time. So you're like, Okay, finally, I will go out with her for dessert. Right? Go out with her for dessert. You come back and your mom is upset? Why were you so long?

You understand, or your dad's not happy? Or your brother's not happy or somebody's not happy your husband's not happy or your children are not happy? You understand? I'm not saying that we should not care about their feelings.

The point here is that our ultimate goal should be who? Allah subhanaw taala I'm not saying that we should be imbalanced in our lives such that we don't care about the rights of our family or our friends or our spouses and we're just living selfishly living though he does not mean living selfishly, living tohave means your ultimate goal is Allah subhanaw taala. So you try our best to do the right thing. But if in the process, somebody gets upset, even though you've done your best, you don't lose hope over there.

Understand

And another lesson over here is also that when we are always trying to please people, we cannot get anywhere.

We cannot get anywhere because we'll be scattered constantly.

I feel like last month, I was also telling us here that you can see that the person who has only one master is very privileged. We can see this in his like slave history, there's difference between the slaves that are just regular servants, and those that are serving this, like the owner himself, like the maid of honor or whatever started wrong. But like the lady in waiting, that's the word. There's a difference between the lady in waiting, the one who serves particularly just one person, versus the ones that are in the kitchen, for example, there's the ones at the bottom are going to be commanded by everyone to order around, they're not treated the same way. But the lady in waiting is

given so much respect, because oh, look, you're serving the lady directly. So their clothes are better that whatever it may be, but it's an example for us as well, when you're serving, just Allah subhanho wa taala, you're so much more special, you're so much more important, more privileged, because you're serving one person directly, you're not now at the lower end serving everyone altogether. So even just in terms of status, you have more status, because you're serving less Rhonda alone.

And it's all about having peace of mind. Because if our peace of mind is determined by people being happy or unhappy with us, then we'll never have peace of mind. But if our goal is to do what Allah subhanaw taala wants us to do, then once we do something, it brings us happiness, cinema Alikum before I learn Italian mono Quran I used to you know, do something that called Madame mulata I don't an English, maybe something like if somebody wants me, this way is happy, I make them that way happy. Then when I learned it, or an Al Hamdulillah, I just make them happy. So to make Allah subhanaw taala happy. This is the heat, right? That even when you're dealing with people, you're

dealing with them for whose sake for the sake of Allah subhanaw taala. So even though you may be giving a glass of water to your mother, or you may be ironing your husband's shirt, your worth is not determined by your relationship with other people it is determined by your relationship with whom Allah subhanaw taala.

So either when you're dealing with people, the people creation is a means. So there's a huge difference over here. One is belonging to one owner and the other is belonging to multiple owners with a Sharky soon. Have you ever heard that story of a boy in the Father? Were traveling and they had a donkey? Alright, and what happened?

One donkey two people they said okay, don't write it. People started saying how foolish somebody should write. Alright, the father sat on the donkey, people started saying, what a mean, father. Alright, the son was writing. And the people said, what a selfish son.

And finally they pick up the donkey.

They picked up the donkey, like could could you please be happy with us?

You see, let's make this a little bit more practical.

If you're wearing something,

you're wearing something, you go to school, you're wearing your dress, you feel conscious that people are not gonna like what I'm wearing. Maybe somebody says beautiful pattern on your dress. And another one says,

are you living in the 80s? Or something?

Another says, Does your mom pick clothes for you? You understand? Even if people don't say these things, maybe they've come out, you know, or you feel that they might say something.

So our goal should not I mean, I'm not saying dress crazy. Dress appropriately, but the test is going to be Is this acceptable near my Lord? And people can say whatever. Right? They can try to judge me by my clothes, but

who cares?

If this is acceptable before Allah subhanaw taala I'm happy.

Alright, so when a person realizes that he's servant of Allah, then he becomes free. And you're not concerned about people in the sense that what are they going to say? What are they going to think? How are they going to feel it doesn't mean you become insensitive.

It means that you your actions are not going to change because of people.

Your behavior is not going to change because of people. They're going to improve in sha Allah because of who Allah subhanaw taala.

So a very important example, which requires a lot of reflection deep reflection on a regular basis in Natoma YUTAN. Allah subhanaw taala addresses the Prophet salallahu Salam, indeed you are to die now yet.

You are to die may yet

May 8, a zoo someone who is going to die and there is another word which is mate

a woman can have mate and mate with no shutdown the mate is one who is already dead and may yet all of us are my youth meaning all of us are going to eventually die

Alright, so in a coma you don't Indeed you are going to die we're in the home and indeed day may you don't wants to die meaning they're also going to die because see them wish recon they would say that the worry just let it go by finally Mohamed Salah Sam is going to die and all of this is going to be over.

So it is said that you are going to die Yes. And they are also going to die.

So there is no satisfaction to be gained from somebody's death

what are you gonna get

if the person whom you dislike dies today? Aren't you gonna die? Everyone is gonna die. In total MBI a 3435 Allah says we're major I leave I shot him in public and hold Alpha emitter formal Khalid Woon no person has been given eternity in this world. So if you're gonna die, are they going to remain forever? No cool new nacinda If almost every soul is going to taste, death,

I shall have the long run has said that. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam in his deathbed when he was about to die, in his extreme illness, there was a bowl of water, a wood container full of water in front of him, and the Prophet sallallahu Sallam would put his hand into the water, and then rub his face with it. Saying that Ilaha illa Allah there is no God worthy of worship but Allah, no doubt, death has it stupid as death is painful.

in a coma YUTAN in the home, my YouTube. In other Hadees we learned Gibreel came to the Prophet salallahu Salam, and he said, Young Muhammad or Muhammad Sallallahu Reyes and then

rich ma*a live how much ever long you wish, meaning no matter how long you live, for in the coming years.

Eventually you are going to die? Well, women should love whoever you want. Eventually there is separation. We're among ma*a and do whatever you wish for in Africa, for indeed you will be recompensed for it so three things.

Live, however long you do. Eventually there is death. Love, whoever you want, eventually there is separation

and do what you do eventually there is consequence in Canada Yeatman we're in Houma. Ye thrown some intercom then indeed you all yomo piano on the day of judgment or in become near your Lord, da da see moon you all shall dispute Dr. Simone Osama false name and Hassan is a dispute which is when people are demanding their rights.

Dr. C wound you will dispute near your Lord concerning the injustice is that you committed towards one another
