00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.200
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

00:00:05.169 --> 00:00:08.009
A summary of the Tafsir of al-Tabari.

00:00:08.599 --> 00:00:12.679
Abridged by Dr. 'Aqil ibn Salim al-Shammari.

00:00:13.990 --> 00:00:16.309
Surah al-Jathiyah.

00:00:18.780 --> 00:00:23.019
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

00:00:23.339 --> 00:00:26.899
Ha-Mim.

00:00:26.899 --> 00:00:33.740
The revelation of the Book is from Allah, the Almighty, the All-Wise.

00:00:34.100 --> 00:00:40.500
“Lo! in the heavens and the earth are portents for believers.” (45:3)

00:00:40.859 --> 00:00:48.020
“And in your creation, and all the beasts that He scattereth in the earth, are portents for a folk whose faith is sure.” (45:4)

00:00:48.020 --> 00:00:54.359
Signs for a people who have certainty.

00:00:54.359 --> 00:00:55.439
Ha-Mim.

00:00:55.920 --> 00:01:01.520
This is the revelation of the Qur'an from Allah, the Almighty in His retribution against His enemies.

00:01:01.840 --> 00:01:04.640
The All-Wise in His management of the affairs of His creation.

00:01:05.079 --> 00:01:07.480
Indeed, in the seven heavens and the earth,

00:01:07.799 --> 00:01:12.000
there are proofs and arguments for those who believe, once they contemplate them.

00:01:12.519 --> 00:01:15.519
And in Allah’s creation of you, O people,

00:01:15.760 --> 00:01:18.959
and His creation of all the living creatures He has dispersed throughout the earth,

00:01:19.280 --> 00:01:24.359
there are proofs for a people who have certainty in the realities of things and thus acknowledge them.

00:01:25.950 --> 00:01:28.989
And in the alternation of the night and the day,

00:01:28.989 --> 00:01:35.430
“And the difference of night and day and the provision that Allah sendeth down from the sky and thereby quickeneth the earth after her death, and the ordering of the winds, are portents for a people who have sense.” (45:5)

00:01:35.829 --> 00:01:43.230
and how He brings the earth to life after its death,

00:01:43.230 --> 00:01:50.510
“And the difference of night and day and the provision that Allah sendeth down from the sky and thereby quickeneth the earth after her death, and the ordering of the winds, are portents for a people who have sense.” (45:5)

00:01:51.310 --> 00:01:54.430
and the alternation of the night and the day, O people,

00:01:54.430 --> 00:01:56.909
and the succession of what is upon you,

00:01:56.909 --> 00:02:01.519
“And the difference of night and day and the provision that Allah sendeth down from the sky and thereby quickeneth the earth after her death, and the ordering of the winds, are portents for a people who have sense.” (45:5)

00:02:01.519 --> 00:02:05.319
and how He brings the earth to life after its death,

00:02:05.359 --> 00:02:08.280
and the descent of rain from the sky,

00:02:08.280 --> 00:02:11.319
by which He brings forth the provisions and sustenance of His servants,

00:02:11.319 --> 00:02:15.159
and revives the dead earth until it stirs with vegetation,

00:02:15.159 --> 00:02:17.719
and in His directing of the winds for your benefit,

00:02:17.719 --> 00:02:20.680
blowing north at one time and south at another,

00:02:20.680 --> 00:02:25.240
and east at times and west at others, for your advantage,

00:02:25.240 --> 00:02:29.800
in all of that are proofs for a people who understand the arguments of Allah,

00:02:29.800 --> 00:02:35.020
and grasp the signs and lessons with which He has admonished them.

00:02:35.020 --> 00:02:40.620
These are the signs of Allah which We recite to you in truth.

00:02:40.620 --> 00:02:49.580
“These are the portents of Allah which We recite unto thee (Muhammad) with truth. Then in what fact, after Allah and His portents, will they believe?” (45:6)

00:02:49.580 --> 00:02:53.500
These signs, O Muhammad, are from your Lord to His creation;

00:02:53.500 --> 00:02:57.180
We inform you of them in truth, not in falsehood.

00:02:57.180 --> 00:03:02.060
So in what hadith, O Muhammad, after the hadith of Allah which He recites to you,

00:03:02.060 --> 00:03:07.530
and these signs of His, will these polytheists believe?

00:03:07.530 --> 00:03:12.969
“Woe unto each sinful liar,” (45:7)

00:03:12.969 --> 00:03:16.810
“Who heareth the revelations of Allah recited unto him, and then continueth in pride as though he heard them not. Give him tidings of a painful doom.” (45:8)

00:03:16.810 --> 00:03:23.370
“Who heareth the revelations of Allah recited unto him, and then continueth in pride as though he heard them not. Give him tidings of a painful doom.” (45:8)

00:03:23.370 --> 00:03:28.870
Then give him tidings of a painful punishment.

00:03:28.870 --> 00:03:32.310
The fluid flowing from the pus of the people of Hell,

00:03:32.389 --> 00:03:35.830
for every sinful liar against his Lord,

00:03:35.830 --> 00:03:39.349
who hears the signs of the Book of Allah being recited to him,

00:03:39.349 --> 00:03:43.110
then persists in his disbelief, without repenting from it,

00:03:43.110 --> 00:03:47.349
acting arrogantly toward his Lord, refusing to submit to His commands and prohibitions,

00:03:47.349 --> 00:03:51.270
as if he had not heard the signs of Allah recited to him.

00:03:51.270 --> 00:03:54.389
So give tidings, O Muhammad, to this sinful fabricator,

00:03:54.389 --> 00:04:00.280
of a painful punishment in the fire of Hell on the Day of Resurrection.

00:04:00.360 --> 00:04:06.439
“And when he knoweth aught of Our revelations he maketh it a jest. For such there is a shameful doom.” (45:9)

00:04:06.439 --> 00:04:13.740
For them is a humiliating punishment.

00:04:13.740 --> 00:04:18.459
And when this sinful fabricator learns anything of the signs of Allah,

00:04:18.459 --> 00:04:21.660
he takes them in mockery, ridiculing them.

00:04:21.660 --> 00:04:24.860
Those who commit this act,

00:04:24.860 --> 00:04:32.149
for them on the Day of Resurrection is a punishment from Allah that will humiliate and disgrace them in the fire of Hell.

00:04:32.230 --> 00:04:38.600
From behind them is Hell.

00:04:38.600 --> 00:04:43.720
“Beyond them there is hell, and that which they have earned will naught avail them, nor those whom they have chosen for protecting friends beside Allah. Theirs will be an awful doom.” (45:10)

00:04:43.720 --> 00:04:50.120
“Beyond them there is hell, and that which they have earned will naught avail them, nor those whom they have chosen for protecting friends beside Allah. Theirs will be an awful doom.” (45:10)

00:04:50.120 --> 00:04:54.839
And for them is a great punishment.

00:04:54.839 --> 00:04:59.000
And beyond these who mock the signs of Allah,

00:04:59.000 --> 00:05:02.600
meaning, awaiting them, is the fire of Hell.

00:05:02.680 --> 00:05:09.639
Neither the wealth nor the children they acquired in this world will avail them anything against the punishment of Hell,

00:05:09.639 --> 00:05:14.759
nor will the deities they worshipped besides Allah, nor their leaders.

00:05:14.759 --> 00:05:19.769
And for them on that Day is a great punishment in Hell.

00:05:19.769 --> 00:05:22.329
This is guidance.

00:05:22.329 --> 00:05:31.740
“This is guidance. And those who disbelieve the revelations of their Lord, for them there is a painful doom of wrath.” (45:11)

00:05:31.819 --> 00:05:38.360
This Qur'an, which We have revealed to Muhammad, is a clarification and a proof of the truth.

00:05:38.360 --> 00:05:41.720
And those who disbelieved in the signs contained in the Qur'an,

00:05:41.720 --> 00:05:47.959
for them is a painful, agonizing punishment on the Day of Resurrection.
