WEBVTT 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.200 In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful 00:00:05.169 --> 00:00:08.050 Conclusion from Al-Tabari’s interpretation 00:00:08.589 --> 00:00:12.710 It was summarized by Dr. Aqeel bin Salem Al-Shammar 00:00:12.910 --> 00:00:16.280 Surah Yunus 00:00:16.280 --> 00:00:22.699 In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful 00:00:23.280 --> 00:00:28.000 And we took the children of Israel across the sea 00:00:28.000 --> 00:00:33.799 So Pharaoh and his soldiers pursued them in transgression and aggression 00:00:34.000 --> 00:00:36.960 Even if he drowns 00:00:36.960 --> 00:00:39.439 He said, “I believe.” 00:00:39.439 --> 00:00:45.920 He said, “I believe that there is no god but Him in whom I believe.” 00:00:45.920 --> 00:00:51.479 Children of Israel and I am a Muslim 00:00:52.579 --> 00:00:56.700 And We cut the children of Israel across the sea until they crossed it 00:00:57.179 --> 00:01:01.539 So Pharaoh and his soldiers followed them out of spite against Moses and Aaron 00:01:01.539 --> 00:01:03.659 And those of their people with them 00:01:03.859 --> 00:01:05.659 And assault them 00:01:06.019 --> 00:01:07.379 So we drowned him 00:01:07.739 --> 00:01:10.620 Even if he drowned, he said 00:01:11.060 --> 00:01:15.180 I declared that there is no god but the One in whom I believe 00:01:15.180 --> 00:01:18.939 Children of Israel and I am a Muslim 00:01:20.250 --> 00:01:29.200 Oh, you disobeyed before and were among the corrupters 00:01:29.480 --> 00:01:35.480 Today We will save you with your body so that you may be a sign for those behind you 00:01:35.799 --> 00:01:44.519 Indeed, many people are heedless of Our signs 00:01:45.650 --> 00:01:48.650 Oh, now you acknowledge your servitude to God 00:01:49.090 --> 00:01:51.209 She surrenders to him with humiliation 00:01:51.650 --> 00:01:54.849 You disobeyed him before his vengeance came down on you 00:01:55.250 --> 00:01:57.530 I was one of the corrupters on earth 00:01:57.769 --> 00:01:59.730 Those who stray from His path 00:02:00.329 --> 00:02:02.810 Today we make you safe 00:02:02.849 --> 00:02:06.250 It is a high position on the ground on your body 00:02:06.810 --> 00:02:10.129 The one who lied about your destruction looks at you as a doom 00:02:10.770 --> 00:02:14.930 And you will be an example for people after you who will look up to you 00:02:15.330 --> 00:02:18.449 They are repelled from disobeying God and disbelieving in Him 00:02:19.050 --> 00:02:22.889 Many people ignore our arguments and evidence 00:02:23.210 --> 00:02:28.009 However, our worship and divinity are purely for Sahun 00:02:28.530 --> 00:02:32.050 They do not think about it or consider it 00:02:33.680 --> 00:02:39.560 We have given the Children of Israel a true abode 00:02:40.599 --> 00:02:46.080 And We provided them with good things 00:02:46.360 --> 00:02:50.840 They differed until knowledge came to them 00:02:51.439 --> 00:03:00.400 Your Lord will judge between them on the Day of Resurrection regarding what they differed about 00:03:01.819 --> 00:03:05.259 And We sent down the Children of Israel to stations of truth 00:03:05.819 --> 00:03:09.020 God granted them shelter in the Levant and Jerusalem 00:03:09.460 --> 00:03:11.620 And their livelihood is lawful 00:03:12.259 --> 00:03:17.500 Different people to whom we did this act were among the Children of Israel 00:03:18.060 --> 00:03:21.180 Until what they knew came to them 00:03:21.740 --> 00:03:27.460 This is because they were before Muhammad sent the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace 00:03:27.900 --> 00:03:32.539 They are unanimously agreed upon the prophethood of Muhammad and acknowledge him and his mission 00:03:33.180 --> 00:03:38.460 When what they knew came to them, some of them disbelieved in it and others believed in it 00:03:39.219 --> 00:03:45.699 Your Lord, O Muhammad, will judge between the differences among the Children of Israel regarding you on the Day of Resurrection 00:03:46.219 --> 00:03:49.979 They differed regarding my affairs in this world 00:03:50.620 --> 00:03:53.659 That those among them who deny you will enter Hell 00:03:54.219 --> 00:03:56.740 And those who believe in you will be included in Paradise 00:03:58.270 --> 00:04:07.030 If you are in doubt about what We have revealed to you, then ask 00:04:07.550 --> 00:04:13.030 So ask those who read the book before you 00:04:13.669 --> 00:04:23.149 The truth has come to you from your Lord, so do not be of those who doubt 00:04:23.589 --> 00:04:33.310 And do not be among those who deny the verses of God, lest you be among the losers 00:04:34.589 --> 00:04:39.310 If you, O Muhammad, are in doubt about the truth of what we have revealed to you 00:04:39.910 --> 00:04:43.149 Ask those who read the Torah and the Gospel 00:04:43.470 --> 00:04:46.149 One of the people who is honest and has faith in you 00:04:46.790 --> 00:04:52.670 I swear, the truth has come to you with certainty from the news that you are God’s messenger 00:04:53.310 --> 00:04:57.110 And these Jews and Christians know that 00:04:57.870 --> 00:05:02.629 Do not be one of those who doubt the validity and truth of this 00:05:03.230 --> 00:05:08.389 And do not, O Muhammad, be among those who deny God’s arguments and evidence 00:05:08.910 --> 00:05:10.990 So you will be one of those who are unlucky 00:05:11.509 --> 00:05:15.430 He sold God's mercy and satisfaction for His wrath and punishment 00:05:17.459 --> 00:05:24.500 Those against whom the word of your Lord has been fulfilled do not believe 00:05:25.060 --> 00:05:33.579 Even if every sign came to them until they saw the painful torment 00:05:35.310 --> 00:05:38.910 Those whom you have imposed, O Muhammad, are the curse of God 00:05:39.509 --> 00:05:44.550 They do not believe in God's arguments and do not acknowledge the oneness of their Lord 00:05:44.990 --> 00:05:51.550 Even if every admonition came to them and they examined it until they witnessed the painful torment 00:05:53.129 --> 00:06:02.449 Had there not been a town that believed and its faith benefited it, except for the people of Yunus, they would not have believed 00:06:02.970 --> 00:06:10.250 When they believed, We removed from them the torment of disgrace in this worldly life 00:06:10.250 --> 00:06:16.649 There was not a town that believed when it witnessed the torment and the descent of God's wrath upon it 00:06:17.050 --> 00:06:23.180 Her faith benefited her at that time, except for the people of Yunus 00:06:23.740 --> 00:06:29.180 Their faith benefited them after the punishment came and discontent came upon them 00:06:29.819 --> 00:06:35.899 When they believed his Messenger and their faith benefited them at that time 00:06:35.899 --> 00:06:38.860 Punishment and discontent descend upon them 00:06:39.500 --> 00:06:46.139 When they believed their Messenger and acknowledged what he had brought to them after the torment had led them astray 00:06:46.779 --> 00:06:51.500 We revealed from them the torment of humiliation and humiliation in their worldly life 00:06:52.060 --> 00:06:57.100 We left them in this world to enjoy it until their death 00:07:06.839 --> 00:07:14.120 Do you force people to become believers? 00:07:15.420 --> 00:07:20.939 And if your Lord had willed, O Muhammad, everyone on earth would have believed in you 00:07:21.420 --> 00:07:27.100 They believed you in what you called them to regarding the monotheism of God and sincerity of worship to Him 00:07:27.740 --> 00:07:32.779 But he does not want that because he has already fulfilled God’s decree 00:07:33.180 --> 00:07:37.019 Only those who have previously been happy believe in you 00:07:37.660 --> 00:07:43.899 Only those whom your Lord wills to believe you will follow you, not by your coercion from him 00:07:44.379 --> 00:07:51.420 Do you force people until they believe in what you have brought to them from your Lord? 00:07:52.680 --> 00:08:06.600 It is not possible for a soul to believe except with God’s permission, and He will place abomination upon those who do not understand 00:08:07.819 --> 00:08:15.180 There was no way for a soul to believe you, O Muhammad, except by giving him permission to do so 00:08:15.819 --> 00:08:18.860 Do not stress yourself in seeking her guidance 00:08:19.420 --> 00:08:23.660 God guides whomever He wishes from among His creation to believe in you 00:08:24.139 --> 00:08:29.740 He imposes torment on those who do not understand God’s arguments and sermons 00:08:31.379 --> 00:08:36.100 Say, “Look at what is in the heavens and the earth.” 00:08:36.580 --> 00:08:46.600 Verses and warnings are of no avail for a people who do not believe 00:08:46.919 --> 00:08:49.799 Say, O Muhammad, to these polytheists 00:08:50.360 --> 00:08:54.360 Look, O people, what signs are in the heavens 00:08:55.080 --> 00:08:56.840 From its sun and moon 00:08:57.320 --> 00:08:59.639 Its night and day are different 00:09:00.120 --> 00:09:04.519 And in the land of its mountains, its plants, and the sustenance of its people 00:09:05.240 --> 00:09:10.600 Arguments and lessons are of no use for a people who have already suffered misery from God 00:09:11.240 --> 00:09:15.240 It was decided for them in the Mother of the Book that they are among the people of Hell 00:09:15.799 --> 00:09:20.039 They do not believe in any of that and do not believe in it 00:09:21.669 --> 00:09:29.429 Do they only wait like the days of those who passed before them? 00:09:29.909 --> 00:09:38.070 Say, “Wait, for I am with you among those who wait.” 00:09:39.559 --> 00:09:46.360 O Muhammad, do these polytheists wait for anything but a day in which they will witness the punishment of God? 00:09:46.840 --> 00:09:50.440 Like the days of their ancestors who went before them 00:09:51.320 --> 00:09:55.960 Tell them, O Muhammad, wait for God’s punishment against you 00:09:56.519 --> 00:10:03.320 I am waiting for your destruction and to destroy you with the punishment that will befall you from God 00:10:04.730 --> 00:10:18.169 Then We will deliver Our messengers and those who believe in the same way. It is truly upon Us to deliver the believers 00:10:19.700 --> 00:10:24.340 Wait for the punishment of God like the days of those who passed before you 00:10:24.980 --> 00:10:29.620 Then We will rescue our Messenger Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace, there 00:10:30.259 --> 00:10:33.139 And whoever believes in him and follows him in his religion 00:10:33.860 --> 00:10:39.379 Just as We did to the past of Our messengers, so We saved them and the believers with them 00:10:40.019 --> 00:10:47.860 And We destroyed its nations. Likewise, We will save you and save those who believe in you. This is a right upon us, without a doubt 00:10:49.700 --> 00:11:04.820 Say, O people, if you are in doubt about my religion 00:11:04.820 --> 00:11:15.860 I do not worship those whom you worship instead of God 00:11:16.100 --> 00:11:20.820 But worship God who takes your soul 00:11:21.299 --> 00:11:26.340 I was commanded to be one of the believers 00:11:27.700 --> 00:11:28.899 Say, Muhammad 00:11:29.620 --> 00:11:33.460 O people, if you are in doubt about my religion 00:11:34.100 --> 00:11:39.700 For I do not worship those gods and idols that you worship other than God 00:11:40.340 --> 00:11:44.019 But I worship God who takes your souls 00:11:44.500 --> 00:11:50.179 It is He who commanded me to be among those who believe in what came to me from Him 00:11:51.820 --> 00:12:00.620 And direct your face to the religion, upright and do not be of the polytheists 00:12:01.259 --> 00:12:08.460 And do not call upon other than God that which neither benefits you nor harms you 00:12:08.860 --> 00:12:17.100 If you do, then you are among the wrongdoers 00:12:18.379 --> 00:12:22.620 And set yourself upright on the religion of Islam 00:12:23.019 --> 00:12:28.299 And do not be among those who associate gods and equals in the worship of his Lord 00:12:28.779 --> 00:12:30.779 Then you will be among those who perish 00:12:31.340 --> 00:12:36.700 And do not pray, O Muhammad, for anything other than your God and Creator that does not benefit you 00:12:36.779 --> 00:12:39.659 It will not harm you in religion or in this world 00:12:40.139 --> 00:12:43.500 If she did that, then she called her instead of God 00:12:44.059 --> 00:12:48.779 Then you are among those who polytheize God, the oppressors themselves 00:13:09.019 --> 00:13:12.299 And if God afflicts you, O Muhammad, severely 00:13:12.779 --> 00:13:17.019 There is no detector of that except your Lord, who afflicted you with it 00:13:17.580 --> 00:13:21.019 And if your Lord wants you to be prosperous or blessed 00:13:21.500 --> 00:13:25.500 No one can prevent you from that 00:13:26.059 --> 00:13:34.539 Your Lord, O Muhammad, afflicts prosperity and calamity, which makes it come between you 00:13:35.500 --> 00:13:41.899 Your Lord, O Muhammad, bestows prosperity and calamity on whomever He pleases among His servants 00:13:42.379 --> 00:13:46.620 He is the Forgiver of the sins of those who repent and repent from His servants 00:13:47.019 --> 00:13:50.460 Merciful to those who believe in Him and obey Him 00:14:05.720 --> 00:14:11.720 And whoever goes astray will only go astray against her 00:14:12.039 --> 00:14:17.639 And I am not an agent over you 00:14:18.679 --> 00:14:21.220 Say, O Muhammad, to the people 00:14:21.860 --> 00:14:25.220 O people, the Book of God has come to you 00:14:25.700 --> 00:14:30.259 It contains an explanation of everything people need regarding their religion 00:14:30.940 --> 00:14:33.740 Whoever is upright will follow the path of truth 00:14:34.460 --> 00:14:37.580 He only follows the path for himself 00:14:38.059 --> 00:14:40.940 He wants good by doing so 00:14:41.659 --> 00:14:44.460 He prevented Waj from the truth and went against his religion 00:14:44.940 --> 00:14:47.179 He is killing himself 00:14:47.740 --> 00:14:51.340 And I am not over you to judge you 00:14:51.899 --> 00:14:53.899 Your command is up to God 00:14:54.539 --> 00:14:56.940 But I am a messenger who communicates 00:14:57.419 --> 00:15:00.539 I inform you of what I sent to you 00:15:01.899 --> 00:15:04.379 And follow what is revealed to you 00:15:04.700 --> 00:15:08.779 And be patient until God judges 00:15:09.259 --> 00:15:12.779 He is the best of rulers 00:15:16.570 --> 00:15:20.409 And follow, O Muhammad, the revelation of God which He reveals to you 00:15:20.970 --> 00:15:26.409 And be patient with whatever harm and hardship befalls you for the sake of God from the polytheists of your people 00:15:26.970 --> 00:15:30.809 Until God decides on them and on you with a final act 00:15:31.450 --> 00:15:33.450 He is the best judge 00:15:33.450 --> 00:15:38.840 Conclusion from Al-Tabari’s interpretation
