00:00:03,459 --> 00:00:08,000
Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, said:

3
00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:21,000
“And when they became steadfast and believed firmly in Our revelations, We appointed from among them leaders who guided by Our command.” (32:24)

4
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:25,539
And on the authority of Ubayy ibn Ka'b, may Allah be pleased with him, who said:

5
00:00:25,539 --> 00:00:29,539
"When the words of Allah, Blessed and Exalted is He, were revealed:

6
00:00:29,539 --> 00:00:38,539
“If ye punish, then punish with the like of that wherewith ye were afflicted. But if ye endure patiently, verily it is better for the patient.” (16:126)

7
00:00:38,539 --> 00:00:42,539
The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said:

8
00:00:42,539 --> 00:00:45,700
'We shall endure patiently and not retaliate.'"

00:00:45,700 --> 00:00:48,380

An insightful benefit:

11
00:00:49,380 --> 00:00:54,890
Sufyan ibn 'Uyaynah, may Allah have mercy on him, said regarding the words of the Exalted:

12
00:00:54,890 --> 00:00:59,890
“And when they became steadfast and believed firmly in Our revelations, We appointed from among them leaders who guided by Our command.” (32:24)

13
00:00:59,890 --> 00:01:02,890
"And they were certain of Our signs."

14
00:01:02,890 --> 00:01:06,890
He said: "When they took hold of the core of the matter,

15
00:01:06,890 --> 00:01:08,890
We made them leaders."
