Taleem al Quran 2021 J01-015E Tafsir Al-Baqarah 102

Bismillah R Rahman r Rahim whatever all Mata to shayateen or Alam Wilkie Sulaiman and they followed instead what the devils had recited during the rain off Sulaiman early his Salam. Now in the previous idea, we learned about what the people of the book did with the book of Allah, that when the book of Allah came, and they learned about it, and its truth was very evident to them, because the Messenger of Allah came to them, and the messenger was Musa de Colima, Mara whom he confirmed that which was with them, how did the People of the Book respond, they responded by throwing the book of Allah behind their backs as if they did not even know meaning they completely disregarded

completely ignored the book of Allah and you see, to throw anything away shows that you don't care about it. But to throw something behind your back shows that you really don't have any regard whatsoever for it, you don't want to see it, you don't want to know it, you just move on and you completely disregard it. So they threw the book of Allah wa Allahu at him in the home lay on the moon as if they did not even know what the book contained or as if they did not even know that a book had been revealed. So this is what they did with the Quran right at the time of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam. And what did they do instead? What Dubba Rue meta to Shayateen Allah

Mulkey Sulayman. Instead of following the book of Allah, they followed what the Shailene would recite in the kingdom of Sulaiman alayhis salaam, and what is it that the shouting would recite, the shouting would recite, basically magic spells. So instead of following the book of Allah, what did they follow? They followed the devil's instead of following the messenger of Allah, they followed the devil's. Instead of following the book of Allah believing in it, they believed in magic, instead of learning and teaching the book of Allah, they learned and taught and practiced magic, because Matra shell clean if you underline this phrase, and just write magic over there, because that is

what the shayateen would recite, okay? Now the word that flew, as you can see, it is translated as recite, right now the word that flew, also means to follow, okay. talaia true also means to follow. So there's two interpretations of the word Tatsu, with the shale, teen recited, and also what the shale teen followed, followed as in what they practice what they did what they taught. Okay, so what was that essentially magic. So basically, the behavior of the people of the book is being condemned over here, that instead of pursuing the book of Allah, you are pursuing magic. And this was something that was very common at the time of the Prophet salallahu Alaihe Salam especially, we

learned that one of the biggest magicians at the time of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was actually libido arson, and he was an expert, in addition, and he also did magic on the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. And this is something that was rampant, not just at that time among the People of the Book. But when we read different passages of the Bible, we see that, you know, this is something that the Jews were very interested from a long time. So for example, in the book of Ezekiel, in chapter 13, verse 18, it says, This is what the Sovereign Lord says, What sorrow awaits you women who are ensnaring the souls of my people young and old alike. You tie magic charms on

their wrists, and furnish them with magic veils. Do you think you can trap others without bringing destructions on yourselves? So particularly, the women who would practice magic they are being condemned that you tie magic charms on their wrists. And then in the same book of Ezekiel, chapter 13, verse 20, it says, This is what the Sovereign Lord says, I am against all your magic charms, I am against all your magic charms. So it's very evident that they practiced magic. And it's also very evident within the Bible that they were clearly told that this is something that they should not do. So what is the origin of this magic? What the barooga turtle shell clean? What is the origin of this

magic that the people of the Book practiced? Where did they get it from? They got it from WHO? From the shell team? Okay, my tattoo Shayateen know what the Shailene would recite what they would practice during the kingdom of during the reign of Sulaiman? Are they his salon, and what they did is that basically they attribute it this magic tool so a man early his salon, you may be familiar with this concept that you know, it's only amongst Muslims where we believe that Soloman or his salaam Dawood earlier Salam were prophets of Allah and kings, the belief

The people of the book have about today man early Salam is very different. They call him King Solomon. They don't believe that he was a prophet of Allah. So Allah subhanaw taala defends Sulaiman or the his Salam over here, that Womack guff Arasu a man who slay man early his salaam did not commit Cofer by practicing magic by teaching magic by learning magic, while back in the shell cleaner cathedral, but indeed it is the devils who did kufr by practicing magic and teaching magic. So the magic that the people of the world practiced where did they get it from? Where did they learn it from? They learned it from shale clean, but they falsely attributed it to slay man and his Salaam

in order to legitimize it. You see, there is different opinions as to how magic was attributed to Superman early his salaam, and you know, there are so many stories, but really, these stories cannot be authenticated. And some of the stories clearly go against what we believe about the prophets of Allah and about the angels. So it is said that, you know, the people at the time of Solomon are in his sunnah. Of course they were really fascinated by the power that Allah subhanaw taala had given to him. So the manner in his salaam was able to control the animals he had armies of, you know, birds and also armies of jinn. Right? And we learned that Soleimani Salam had actually made a dua to

Allah, that your Allah bestow me a kingdom that you will not give to anyone after me, meaning the height of human kingship basically. And in response to that dua, Allah subhanaw taala says for Sahara Nanda who so we subjected to him any Allah subhanaw taala subjected the jinn and the wind and different types of animals to suit a man or his sunnah. So of course, people at the time of study man or the salam and people after him were fascinated by his powers. And when you see that someone has, you know, great powers, you want to know, how did they do it because you want to do the same thing. So what they did, we learned that the shell teen inspired people that Soleimani has salaam

acquired all of this power through magic. So a man early his Salam acquired all of that power and he controlled the gin how through magic, so the people also now wanted to learn magic. All right, in order to get what's today Monterey Salem head, so my taco shell cleaner Allah milky Sulayman Walmart Cafaro Suleyman, Soylu, Monterey supplementary, salam, he did not do magic. So the manner in his hand was given miracles solely manually As Salam was given a special favor by Allah when he was given power over the jinn and different creatures, but people falsely attributed certain mannerisms powers to magic All right. And so they legitimize the learning of magic the practicing of magic

because look if so the minor listen I'm doing we too can do it. Right now. Another opinion is that you know at the time was today man or his salon magic was rampant, okay? Because like it is said over here, my tattoo Sheltie. No Isla Mulkey Sulaiman what the shayateen would recite to kingdom of Solomon, meaning at the time in the reign of Solomon or his Santa's magic was rampant. So Solomon really said I'm what he did is that he confiscated the books of magic that people had access to and he buried them. Okay, this is an opinion and after his death, when those books were extracted, people said look, he controlled the jinn. And he had all of these powers on the basis of magic.

Sorcery binary salaam, they said he was a king, he was a magician, not a prophet. So you see what's happening over here, that they accused Suleiman or his salaam of being a magician and not a prophet. Okay. And we see that till today actually, there are books of magic which are falsely attributed to say a man or Alayhis Salam, okay, some attribute his powers to his ring, the Seal of Solomon, right? So these are very common beliefs, but they're contrary to what the Quran tells us. Allah subhanaw taala tells us why America follow suit a man who saw a man did not do cover Solomon early Salam did not commit disbelief how? By practicing magic by learning magic or by teaching magic solely minorly

Sam did not do covered then where did this magic originated from what I can the shower cleaner comfortable? But indeed it is the shell clean who disbelieved. It is the shell clean who practiced magic, all right, and who taught people magic. So a man or a SLM did not learn magic, he did not teach magic, he did not practice magic. And this ayah very clearly shows us that practicing magic learning magic teaching magic, all of this is what it is covered. It is disbelief in Allah, how exactly is a disbelief in Allah inshallah we will talk about that. But basically, if you think about it, magic the way it works.

is that you need the cooperation of a shaitan okay, you need the cooperation of a devil. And in order to encourage the devil to cooperate with you, what do you have to do you have to please the devil, you have to you know, show some kind of subservience, some kind of dedication. So, for example, people will do really nasty dirty things, you know, for example, they will smear themselves in filth or they will offer something, you know, some kind of a sacrifice, they will stay dirty, they will not touch water, etcetera. And remember that when something is sacrificed to other than Allah, that is *. All right. If a person is showing subservience to something other than Allah,

seeking their approval to such an extent that they're doing prohibited things, then this is covered. So when Makka Farah Sulaymaniyah, we're lacking the sheltering, aka funnel, so magic is coffee. All right, so Monterey salon was not a magician. It is the shell team who taught people magic. Now Allah subhanaw taala says you are only moon and NASA Sahara. They would teach people magic and warmer on Zillow lol Mala cainy Be Barbuda held automl route. And they would also teach people that which was sent down upon the two angels in Babylon, which two angels have ruled and modeled. So basically, two types of magic are mentioned over here. The first type of matter your Illumina NASA, sir. All right,

the magic which the shayateen would teach people and secondly, the magic that was ancient. Okay. So basically, the people of the book, what did they do? They practice they learned two types of magic. Okay. What is the origin of that magic? First of all, that which is falsely attributed to saliva and Ernie has syndrome? Okay, but Soleimani Salam Allah's Panthera defends him here. So no matter listen, I was not the source of that magic. It is actually the Shailene who would teach people that magic. Okay. And secondly, the ancient magic from Babylon. Okay, now the magic that was falsely attributed to sully manually said am I told you about that? Why was it attributed? Why did people

think that's a minor? Listen, I'm practiced magic. We discussed that. Right? What about this ancient magic from Babylon? Well, my own Zilla Island Mala cany be Babita hell Ruta one mile route. So what's happening over here? That magic which was sent down on the two angels, Mala cane, and these two angels were in Babel, okay, they came to Babel. And we know that this is ancient magic, because Babel is basically one of the first civilizations that ever existed. Right? So Babel is you can say the first city ever. Okay? So Babel Babylon. And these two angels, hell Ruth and Mal root, they were sent down, and they taught people magic, okay. And they would only teach people magic after giving a

disclaimer. Okay. Now when it comes to how Ruth and modelled there is a lot of again different you know, interpretation, some orlimar said that how rotten models are not to angels, actually, these are the names of the devils. Okay, so the names are just coming later on. And they say that Well Matt when Zilla Matt over here means not any no magic was sent down on the angels, it was actually the devils but I don't want to get into too many details of the different ways in which this idea has been interpreted because, you know, if we get into too many interpretations, any it's going to make it confusing for us and at the end of the day, the message is the same whether you go with one

interpretation or the other. Okay, which is that the people have the book instead of following the book of Allah, they pursued magic. All right. Now well, mountain Zilla, little Mala KB Rabida how to toma route who or how to turn my route. Now according to Islam, Elliott, meaning the Israeli traditions that are common among not only the people of the book, but also somewhat known within Muslim historians. Some say that, you know, there's weird stories actually. And we don't believe in the story which is that how do the Naruto or you know to angels who marked at human beings, okay, that they are blessed with so much intelligence yet look at them how they're falling into sin. And

so they were challenged by God and they were sent to the world in the form of human beings. That okay, if you are surrounded by temptation, let's see what you will do. And so they also were surrounded by temptation when they came to the earth and they fell into sin and then they were punished, and they continue to be punished. But this is something that clearly contradicts you know, our belief in the angels. Remember that the concept of Fallen Angels

This is something that we don't believe in. Okay, we believe that angels are Rebadow MCRA moon, all right, they are slaves, worshippers of Allah that are honorable, they obey Allah and they do whatever they are told by Allah azza wa jal. Okay, so whatever the angels do, they're doing in obedience to Allah. So what the angels do the action that the angels are doing that doesn't matter what matters is the fact that they are obeying Allah. Now, for example, we learned that the angels were told to make such that to Adam Alehissalaam Okay, now if you analyze that action, making sujood to someone other than Allah, how is that okay? Right? Are we allowed to do that? Not at all right?

That is schicke that is associating partners with Allah. Right? But Allah subhanaw taala is the one who commanded the angels to prostrate to Adam. All right, and so the angels frustrated they made the search though. Now here the I have very clearly says that, you know, the two angels, they would teach people magic one that one Zita Alan Miller came we were Billa Haruto. What one are you are aluminum in Hardin and they would not teach anyone had Daya Kula international fitness fanatic for until they would say that we are only a trial. So do not disbelieve. So it's very clear that these two angels would teach people magic, but they will teach with the disclaimer. Now earlier we learned

the teaching magic is covered. So how are the angels teaching magic? Why are they teaching magic? We see the reason in the verse itself that they would say to the people in no manner no fitna we are only a trial. We are only a trial fanatic for so do not disbelieve, meaning do not learn magic from us. So how Ruth and Ruth are who they are angels. Okay. Who taught people magic? Why as a fitna? Okay, as a fitna as a test as a trial for people. This is similar to how the people of the book were not supposed to fish on Saturdays, right on the Sabbath, but what happened? The fish would come on Saturday, right? Sometimes sin is made accessible to you, not because it is now permissible for you,

but because Allah subhanaw taala is testing you. Okay, that what are you going to do? Are you going to fall for it? Or are you going to remember that, you know, this is something that's not allowed for you to do and you're going to stay away from it. So accessibility of sin does not mean permissibility. Remember this, and Allah subhanaw taala continues to test people how by making sin accessible to them, the Bani Israel were tested through how to Tenma root. Okay, and we see that even the Companions, the Sahaba, when they were going for Umbra with the Prophet sallallahu, alayhi wasallam. And they were in a state of Iran. And you remember that in the State of Iran, you're not

allowed to hunt any animals, right? We learned in the Quran about how, you know, while they were traveling towards Mecca, pray was so accessible to them that they could literally grab it with their hands, and eternalblue, Id Komori mahakumbh Any very easily, they could grab those animals of prey by their hand. And they could also very easily shoot, you know, with their arrows and catch, okay, but this was a test that are you going to remember that in a home, you're not allowed to hunt. So you're not going going to hunt, no matter how accessible these animals are to you? Or are you going to fall for it? Okay, so the bunny is like you were also tested through these angels. Okay? And

remember, especially when you like something, okay, especially when you want something, you know, there's that desire in your heart, there's that attraction in your heart, right for a certain action. And, you know, there will be times when Allah subhanaw taala will test you. You see, for anyone who has hunted animals, any it's people do it for sport even, right, the Sahaba Of course, they did it for food. But you know, for them, it wasn't like, Okay, I feel like having a turkey. So let me go place an order, you know, at the local butcher. No, it didn't work like that, you know, they would have to go out themselves. Now imagine they're traveling, they're in the middle of, you

know, the journey and they are hungry as well probably. And these animals have prayer so accessible to them. This was very, very difficult. And this is taqwa. Right? This is the whole idea of being conscious of Allah that Allah is watching me. And this is something I'm not allowed to do right now. So I'm not going to do it. So the Sahaba with the help of Allah, they pass that test. They did not hunt, even though hunting was so easy at that time, but they did not hunt. Right. So what happened with the bunny so

eel. We see over here that these two angels would only teach people magic. After giving the disclaimer that we are a fitna, so do not disbelieve. Now can you imagine the angels, you know how to turn my route in Babylon? By the way, this is even before Ibrahim Ali Salam in Babylon. Okay? So it's not just the Bani Israel, Egypt, Bani Israel did not even exist at the time. This is just people in general. Okay, but what is being spoken of over here is the origin of magic. Where did magic come from? Where did people start learning magic from and what's the origin of it? Okay. So they would make it very clear that we are a fitna, so do not disbelieve. But still people would

learn magic from these two angels viatera limonum in Houma, so they would learn from them to meaning the two angels, what the magic which may you fairy corner, behave that which they would cause division through it. banal multi was odd between a man and his wife. This is a kind of magic, which is known as sacred at the field, the freak as in to cause division between who husband and wife. So in particular, they learned this type of magic. And this is one of the things that they would do through magic, creating division between a man and his wife. And sometimes it happens, this is common today as well, that for no reason, the husband is just, you know, angry at his wife, you may

have noticed, you know, sometimes out of nowhere, you know, one spouse become so angry, so resentful, so hateful in the way that they speak to their spouse. And you wonder what's happened to them. This is the effect of shaitan write that out of nowhere. You know, this person who was perfectly fine just an hour ago is now yelling, angrily, constantly fighting And subhanAllah sometimes the argument ends up in divorce. So this is the effect of shaytaan so the people particularly used magic to create division between men and his Whitefeather aluminum in Houma. euphotic gonna be banal Marie was OG, Allah subhanaw taala makes it clear that woman whom Bilad Rena

became in a heading Ellerbee in Allah, but they do not harm anyone through it through what through magic to anyone mean I heard in in libidinal Allah, except by permission of Allah. So the shows is that magic does cause harm. Okay, like here we see that they used magic to create division between a man and his wife, okay. And we see that in her decent everybody there's it's very clear how, you know, some people did magic on the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa salam and he suffered in a very minor way but he did suffer all right. So magic does cause harm. However, that harm is only possible in Nabi it Nila by permission of Allah, which shows that magic is real and its effect is only

possible by the permission of Allah. Okay, which means that magic is not stronger than the power of Allah. Okay, so if Allah subhanaw taala wants to protect his slave, he will protect his sleep and that magic will not have any impact. And even if a person has been affected by magic, you know, Allah subhanaw taala is able to cure that person. Allah subhanaw taala is able to heal that person, restore his good health etc. Because Allah has power is greater than the power of magic. While now homebuilder arena behemoth, a hidden Illa be in Manila, because the fact is that it is only Allah Who controls benefit and loss. We learned that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam mentioned

this in Hadith, if all of the nation were together Together to benefit you, they would not be able to benefit you with anything except with something that Allah has already written for you. Right? And if all of them gather together to harm you again, they would not be able to harm you with anything except with what Allah has already written for you. So if people manage to bring you some benefit, or they managed to bring you some harm, it's not that you know people or that creation is extremely powerful. No, they only managed to do what Allah subhanaw taala has already written for you. So when Maham Bilad Rena became in a heading, Ellerbee is Nila weightier Allah Munna Mayor de

Ruvo Mala and Pharaoh home and the people learn what harms them and does not benefit them. Meaning the magic that people learn whether it is the magic that is falsely attributed to Sullivan early Salem, or the ancient magic from Babylon. This magic is such that it actually harms people and it does not really benefit them. Okay. And this is something very interesting about magic because you see when it comes to comedy and Mason

Alcohol and gambling Allah subhanaw taala told us and Silikal Bacara io 219 that fee himmat is mancha butum one en Fe earliness that in alcohol and gambling there is a great sin and there are also some benefits for people okay. So, for example the benefits that people get from alcohol they get to enjoy it you know type of wine is paired with the right food and you know, it enhances your experience etc You know, some people will claim that it helps to keep warm in cold winter Okay, there may be some benefits, all right, you could even argue that there are certain health benefits Okay, when it comes to gambling also, there may be benefits a person can get rich instantly and with

that money, they can do a lot of good they can given so much charity that you know, they can pay off their debt, they can buy a house for themselves, etc. Any okay? There are a benefits in alcohol and gambling. But Allah subhanaw taala told us what is Mohammed aka bottlemen Nephi Hema their sin is greater than their benefit, meaning the harm outweighs the benefits right? And so, this is the reason why these two things are forbidden. Now, this shows us that everything that Allah subhanaw taala has forbidden you know, for example, eating pork consumption of interest, you know, yes, these things may have some benefit in them, but the harm is greater. Okay. However, when it comes to

magic, Allah subhanaw taala says with our Allah Mona, my yoga room will lie yeah, and for whom there is actually no benefit. In magic. Any when a person deals with magic, learning it, teaching it practicing it, then they only incur loss upon loss. And there's different types of harm that a person suffers because of magic. And the greatest harm. The greatest loss is the loss of the dean and aka Welaka, Alamo. Lemonis, the Rahu and indeed, they knew that whoever purchases it, whoever purchases magic, notice the word purchases is thaw who you have to pay for magic, how that literally you pay with your life. Okay, you pay with your dean, you pay with your soul, you literally sell

your soul to the devil. Okay? And also, you know, people who want magic to be done you know, who hire a magician, for example, they pay a huge price. There's financial loss over there as well. So they knew that whoever purchases it Mela, who Phil akhira, Tim and holla, he would have in the hereafter no share at all. Any, he will have no share of the Hereafter, because magic is offered. Right? And it is servitude to the devil. It is completely contrary to Buddha to Allah. And so the person who deals with magic they will have no share in the hereafter. Yet well a bit sama shall be and Fusa home wretched is that gain for which they sold themselves? Meaning still they went for

magic they learned it they sold their souls literally, they compromised their eternity. All right, but how evil is what they got an exchange worldly benefit, temporary gain? Low Can We are on the moon if only they knew. So looking back at this, if you look at the whole IO, what are the different things that we learned? We learned that the people of the book instead of following the book of Allah, they were more interested in learning and practicing magic. All right, where did they get this magic from? Two types of magic are mentioned over here first the magic which they falsely attributed to silly man early his salaam, but that is not true. Cinnamon early salaam did not do

magic. This magic was actually from the shell clean. Okay, from the shayateen from the devils. All right. And secondly, the magic which people know today that has roots in ancient Babylon. Okay. And this was taught to people through to angels how to take my route. But this was a test for people. Okay, this was a test for people. And remember that every type of ailment, every type of knowledge is not necessarily beneficial to a person. Okay. There are some types of erlin, which can be a great fitna for you a great trial for you. So don't learn it, stay away from it. You know, there's lots of options out there. You know, you can learn many different things, many things. In fact, you don't

have to learn things which will put your Eman at risk, which will put your kiddo at risk. So they learned this magic Basically, first of all magic that is falsely attributed to city mannerism and secondly, magic that originated in Babylon taught through angels as a fitna for you

people, but people learned it anyway. So Allah subhanaw taala first of all, clarifies over here to the minority Simon was not a magician. All right? Secondly, we learned in this ayah that magic is Schofer meaning, teaching magic learning magic, you know, studying, practicing magic, whether you're doing it on your own or you're learning it from a teacher, this is Clifford. Then we learn about the reality of magic that it does cause harm, but it causes harm only by the permission of Allah. And we learned that major form of magic is sacred the freak which is the causing division between husband and wife, and we see that magic is purely evil. Okay, it has no benefit whatsoever. We also learned

in this is that without Allah's permission, magic has no effect whatsoever. And we also learned that the person who deals with magic loses their era. They put their entire eternity at risk.
