WEBVTT 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.200 In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful 00:00:05.160 --> 00:00:08.039 Conclusion from Al-Tabari’s interpretation 00:00:08.580 --> 00:00:12.740 It was summarized by Dr. Aqeel bin Salem Al-Shammari 00:00:12.900 --> 00:00:16.410 Surah Al-Ahzab 00:00:18.370 --> 00:00:22.570 In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful 00:00:22.730 --> 00:00:31.769 O Prophet, fear God and do not obey the unbelievers and hypocrites 00:00:31.769 --> 00:00:37.049 God is All-Knowing, All-Wise 00:00:38.659 --> 00:00:45.380 O Prophet, fear God by obeying Him, performing His duties, and abstaining from His prohibitions 00:00:45.859 --> 00:00:48.939 And do not obey the unbelievers and hypocrites 00:00:49.340 --> 00:00:51.259 They are your enemies 00:00:51.840 --> 00:00:55.399 God is aware of what their souls contain 00:00:55.679 --> 00:00:59.119 Wise in managing your affairs and the affairs of your companions 00:01:00.259 --> 00:01:04.459 And follow what is revealed to you from your Lord 00:01:04.700 --> 00:01:10.140 Indeed, God is Acquainted with what you do 00:01:11.459 --> 00:01:14.700 And do what God has revealed to you from His revelation 00:01:15.060 --> 00:01:19.659 God is responsible for what you and your companions do from this Qur’an 00:01:19.900 --> 00:01:23.340 He is experienced and nothing is hidden from him 00:01:23.739 --> 00:01:26.099 He will reward you for that 00:01:27.140 --> 00:01:31.079 And trust in God 00:01:31.239 --> 00:01:34.159 God is sufficient as a disposer of affairs 00:01:35.439 --> 00:01:38.120 And entrust your affairs to God, O Muhammad 00:01:38.680 --> 00:01:42.920 God is sufficient for you in what He commands you, as your agent and guardian 00:01:44.379 --> 00:01:50.650 God has not made a man two hearts inside him 00:01:51.170 --> 00:02:00.290 And He did not make your wives any more than your mothers 00:02:00.730 --> 00:02:06.569 And what makes your claims your children 00:02:07.129 --> 00:02:11.210 That is what you say with your mouths 00:02:11.729 --> 00:02:16.849 God speaks the truth and guides the path 00:02:18.349 --> 00:02:21.710 God has not made a man two hearts inside him 00:02:22.389 --> 00:02:25.030 This is a denial from God Almighty 00:02:25.509 --> 00:02:30.270 According to the saying of someone who said to a man that he has two hearts within him, he can be rational with them 00:02:30.750 --> 00:02:35.870 O men, God did not make your women not what you should say to them 00:02:36.270 --> 00:02:40.870 That you groan upon us like the backs of our mothers, your mothers 00:02:41.469 --> 00:02:44.349 Rather, it was made by you a lie 00:02:44.949 --> 00:02:49.669 God did not make the one you claimed to be your son the son of someone else 00:02:50.189 --> 00:02:55.469 That is what a man says to his wife, “You have my mother’s back.” 00:02:55.990 --> 00:02:59.150 He who is not his son calls him to be his son 00:02:59.629 --> 00:03:03.550 It is just your words with your mouths that have no truth 00:03:04.310 --> 00:03:07.110 God is the truthful one who speaks the truth 00:03:08.030 --> 00:03:10.870 And God makes clear to His servants the path of truth 00:03:11.550 --> 00:03:13.870 He guides them to the path of guidance 00:03:15.699 --> 00:03:22.979 Call them by their fathers, which is fairer with God 00:03:23.580 --> 00:03:27.259 If you do not know their fathers 00:03:27.259 --> 00:03:31.340 Your brothers in religion and your friends 00:03:31.860 --> 00:03:37.379 There is no blame on you for what you did wrong 00:03:37.379 --> 00:03:41.539 But what your hearts intended 00:03:42.099 --> 00:03:45.500 God is Forgiving and Merciful 00:03:46.979 --> 00:03:52.060 Lineage your claimants to those whose lineage you have linked to their fathers 00:03:52.659 --> 00:03:56.500 He says to his Prophet Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace 00:03:57.060 --> 00:04:00.020 Zaid's lineage was traced back to his father, Haritha 00:04:00.500 --> 00:04:02.860 And do not call him Zaid bin Muhammad 00:04:03.620 --> 00:04:07.819 Your supplication for their parents is more just in the sight of God 00:04:08.419 --> 00:04:10.259 If you do not know who his father is 00:04:10.740 --> 00:04:13.020 He is your brother and your master 00:04:13.770 --> 00:04:20.970 There is no blame or blame on you if you make a mistake in relating some of the people you attribute to his father 00:04:21.410 --> 00:04:24.449 And you see him as the son of the one to whom they attribute his name 00:04:24.889 --> 00:04:26.250 He is someone else's son 00:04:26.889 --> 00:04:31.810 But the sin and embarrassment is on you in attributing his identity to someone other than his father 00:04:32.290 --> 00:04:36.009 And you know that he is the son of someone other than the one to whom you attribute him 00:04:36.649 --> 00:04:40.649 God was covering up the apparent sin of his wife 00:04:41.170 --> 00:04:43.689 Whoever claims someone else’s son is his son 00:04:44.250 --> 00:04:46.810 If he repents and returns to God’s command 00:04:47.209 --> 00:04:49.009 And He has mercy on them 00:04:58.350 --> 00:05:02.670 And his wives are their mothers 00:05:03.189 --> 00:05:11.029 The relatives are more worthy of each other in the Book of God than the believers 00:05:11.589 --> 00:05:21.509 Of the believers and immigrants, unless you do good to your friends 00:05:22.069 --> 00:05:25.829 That was in the book 00:05:27.370 --> 00:05:31.730 The Prophet Muhammad has more right to believers than to themselves 00:05:32.170 --> 00:05:35.050 He may rule over them as he pleases 00:05:35.689 --> 00:05:39.370 The sanctity of his wives is the same as their mothers 00:05:39.970 --> 00:05:44.170 In that it is forbidden for them to marry him after his death 00:05:44.730 --> 00:05:47.610 They are also forbidden from marrying their mothers 00:05:48.209 --> 00:05:51.689 The relatives of relatives who inherited from one another 00:05:52.129 --> 00:06:00.649 They are more deserving of the inheritance of some of them than the believers and immigrants, so that they inherit from each other through immigration and faith, rather than through family ties 00:06:01.250 --> 00:06:13.649 Unless you do to your friends with whom the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, was a brother between them and you, from the immigrants and the Ansar, as a kind of bequest to them. 00:06:14.170 --> 00:06:16.250 Victory and reason are on their side 00:06:16.250 --> 00:06:22.329 The relatives of the relatives were more worthy of each other in the written tablet 00:06:48.620 --> 00:06:52.649 It was also hidden in the book 00:06:53.129 --> 00:06:57.529 When we took the covenant from the prophets and from you, O Muhammad 00:06:58.009 --> 00:07:02.410 We took from Noah, Abraham, Moses, and Jesus bin Maryam 00:07:02.889 --> 00:07:07.850 We took from them a firm covenant that they would believe one another 00:07:09.420 --> 00:07:18.779 That He may question the truthful about their truthfulness, and He has prepared for the unbelievers a painful punishment 00:07:20.279 --> 00:07:23.560 We took from these prophets their covenant 00:07:24.040 --> 00:07:28.360 In order to ask the messengers about what their nations responded to them 00:07:28.839 --> 00:07:33.560 And what did their people do with the message that was conveyed to them about their Lord? 00:07:34.279 --> 00:07:38.680 And He has prepared for the nations who disbelieve in God a painful punishment 00:07:50.600 --> 00:07:59.800 Soldiers have come to you, so We sent upon them a wind and hosts that you did not see 00:08:00.360 --> 00:08:04.680 And God is ever Seeing of what you do 00:08:06.600 --> 00:08:12.920 O you who have believed, remember the blessings of God upon you which He bestowed upon your community 00:08:13.560 --> 00:08:20.120 That was when the Muslims were besieged with the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, during the days of the Trench 00:08:20.759 --> 00:08:27.079 When the soldiers of the Quraish, Ghatafan, and Yahud ibn al-Nadir parties came to you 00:08:27.980 --> 00:08:33.899 So We sent upon them the wind of youth until their pots filled their mouths 00:08:34.460 --> 00:08:41.259 And you took away their cloaks until you weakened them and the angels, and you did not fight on that day 00:08:41.899 --> 00:08:44.700 And God was in your deeds that day 00:08:45.259 --> 00:08:49.419 This is their patience despite the effort and hardship they were experiencing 00:08:49.820 --> 00:08:55.419 And their steadfastness towards their enemy is an all-seeing one, and nothing is hidden from that 00:08:57.539 --> 00:09:05.379 When they came to you from above you and from below you 00:09:05.940 --> 00:09:18.419 And from below you, when the eyes became distorted and the hearts reached the throats 00:09:18.419 --> 00:09:23.059 And you have doubts about God 00:09:24.490 --> 00:09:27.210 And God is ever Seeing of what you do 00:09:27.769 --> 00:09:32.250 When the soldiers of the parties came to you from above you and below you 00:09:32.970 --> 00:09:37.129 And when the eyes turned away from their place and the person of the aspirant 00:09:37.769 --> 00:09:43.289 The hearts sprouted from their places of terror and fear and reached the throats 00:09:43.929 --> 00:09:46.649 And you think false thoughts about God 00:09:47.129 --> 00:09:52.330 Like those of them who thought that the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, would prevail 00:09:52.970 --> 00:09:56.490 But God promised him victory that it would not happen 00:09:58.360 --> 00:10:05.559 Here for you, the believers were tested and suffered a severe earthquake 00:10:07.019 --> 00:10:09.740 Then he tested the faith of the believers 00:10:10.139 --> 00:10:13.179 They were greatly stirred up by sedition 00:10:13.580 --> 00:10:15.179 And they were tested and tempted 00:10:16.700 --> 00:10:22.539 And when the hypocrites and those in whose hearts is a disease say: 00:10:23.019 --> 00:10:27.740 God and His Messenger promised us nothing but delusion 00:10:29.269 --> 00:10:34.149 And when the hypocrites and those in whose hearts there is doubt about faith say: 00:10:34.629 --> 00:10:37.990 God and His Messenger promised us nothing but delusion 00:10:38.710 --> 00:10:42.549 This was said by hypocritical people 00:10:43.029 --> 00:10:46.470 Muhammad was promising us the conquest of Persia and the Romans 00:10:46.710 --> 00:10:48.970 We have limited it here 00:10:48.970 --> 00:10:53.269 Even one of us cannot express his need 00:10:53.269 --> 00:10:57.669 God and His Messenger promised us nothing but delusion 00:10:57.669 --> 00:11:08.500 And when a group of them said, “O people of Yathrib, there is no place for you, so return.” 00:11:08.500 --> 00:11:17.860 A group of them asked the Prophet, saying, “Our homes are naked.” 00:11:17.860 --> 00:11:26.259 It is not ruggedness if they only want to escape 00:11:26.259 --> 00:11:34.980 And when some of them said, “O people of Yathrib, there is no place for you to stay, so return to your homes.” 00:11:35.139 --> 00:11:41.460 He ordered them to escape from the army of the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, and flee from it 00:11:41.460 --> 00:11:49.059 Some of them asked the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, permission to leave him to his house 00:11:49.059 --> 00:11:54.580 It is one of the enemy's enemies, and we fear thieves for it 00:11:54.580 --> 00:12:02.740 But he wanted to flee and escape from the army of the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace 00:12:02.740 --> 00:12:17.240 And if it had entered upon them from its lands and then they had been asked for temptation, they would have come to it, and they would not have tarried in it except for a little while. 00:12:17.240 --> 00:12:22.299 Even if the city were entered, those who say 00:12:22.299 --> 00:12:26.799 Indeed, our homes are rugged inside and around them. 00:12:26.799 --> 00:12:30.100 Then they were asked to return from faith to polytheism 00:12:30.100 --> 00:12:33.600 They did so and abandoned Islam and became polytheists 00:12:33.600 --> 00:12:38.100 They did not refrain from responding to polytheism except a little 00:12:38.100 --> 00:12:50.940 And they had covenanted with God before that they would not turn their backs, and God’s covenant was accountable. 00:12:52.200 --> 00:12:59.200 Those who asked the permission of the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, were reluctant 00:12:59.200 --> 00:13:04.399 They had pledged to God before that that they would not turn away their enemy 00:13:04.399 --> 00:13:06.899 They did not fulfill their promise 00:13:06.899 --> 00:13:09.399 God's covenant was responsible 00:13:09.399 --> 00:13:15.419 God asks that from the one who gave it to him from himself 00:13:15.919 --> 00:13:32.980 Say, "Fleeing will not benefit you if you flee from death or killing. Then you will not have any enjoyment except a little." 00:13:32.980 --> 00:13:38.909 Say, O Muhammad, to those who ask your permission to leave you 00:13:38.909 --> 00:13:43.909 Fleeing will not benefit you if you are fleeing from death or murder 00:13:43.909 --> 00:13:48.909 Because what God wrote of them will continue to you in any case 00:13:48.909 --> 00:13:51.909 And if you escape from death or murder 00:13:51.909 --> 00:13:55.909 Your escape has not increased in your lifetime 00:13:55.909 --> 00:14:01.409 Rather, you will only enjoy this world until the time that has been written for you 00:14:01.409 --> 00:14:06.440 Then what has been written for you and upon you will come to you 00:14:06.440 --> 00:14:16.940 Say: Who is the one who protects you from God if He intends evil for you or desires mercy for you? 00:14:16.940 --> 00:14:25.940 They will not find for themselves any protector or helper other than God 00:14:25.940 --> 00:14:30.899 Say, O Muhammad, to those who ask your permission 00:14:30.899 --> 00:14:36.899 Who is there to prevent you from God if He intends evil for you for yourselves? 00:14:36.899 --> 00:14:42.399 From death, affliction, etc., or well-being and safety 00:14:42.399 --> 00:14:48.399 These hypocrites do not find a guardian other than God who is sufficient for them 00:14:48.399 --> 00:14:51.399 There is no helper from God to help them 00:14:51.399 --> 00:14:58.090 So he protects them from the evil that God intended for them 00:14:58.090 --> 00:15:02.090 Conclusion from Al-Tabari’s interpretation
