In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
Conclusion from Al-Tabari’s interpretation
It was summarized by Dr. Aqeel bin Salem Al-Shammar
Surah An-Nisa
In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
We have revealed to you just as We revealed to Noah and the prophets after him
And We revealed to Abraham, and Ishmael, and Isaac, and Jacob, and the tribes, and Jesus, and Job, and Yunus, and Aaron, and Solomon,
And We gave David the Psalms
We have sent you, O Muhammad, with prophecy just as We sent to Noah
And all the prophets after him
Abraham, Ishmael, Isaac, Jacob, the Tribes, Jesus, Job, Jonah, Aaron, and Solomon
And We gave David the Psalms
And messengers whom We have related to you before, and messengers whom We have not related to you. And God spoke to Moses in honor
We have revealed to you just as We revealed to Noah and to messengers whom We have related to you, and to messengers whom We have not related to you.
God spoke to Moses in a speech
Messengers bringing good tidings and warnings, so that people will have no argument against God after the messengers. And God is Mighty, Wise
Messengers whom I have sent to My creation and My servants, bringing good tidings of My reward to those who obey Me and warning of My punishment to those who disobey Me.
So that whoever disbelieves in me will not use his argument and say, “If only you had not sent us a messenger,” then the argument of every invalid would be cut short
And God remains Mighty in His vengeance and Wise in arranging for them what He has planned
But God bears witness to what was revealed to you. He revealed it with His knowledge, and the angels bear witness, and God is sufficient as a witness
If the Jews disbelieve in what We revealed to you, O Muhammad, and say to you, “God has not revealed anything to human beings,” then they have lied.
What is the matter as they said, but God testifies that it was revealed to you. He revealed that to you with His knowledge that you were the best of His creation
His angels bear witness to this for you, so do not be saddened by the denial of those who lie to you, and God is sufficient for you as a witness to your truthfulness, to the exclusion of any other of His creation.
Indeed, those who disbelieve and turn away from the path of God have strayed far astray
Those who denied your prophethood, O Muhammad, and turned away from Islam, have intentionally committed severe injustice
Indeed, those who disbelieved and wronged, God would not forgive them nor guide them to a path
Except the road to Hell, to abide therein forever. And that is easy for God
Those who denied the message of Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace, and were wronged by their position of disbelief, are aware of them
God would not pardon their sins, but He would expose them to them
God would not guide those who disbelieved and wronged and guide them to one of the paths by which they would attain God’s reward.
Until they follow the path of Hell, residing there forever
It was easy for God to immortalize these people in Hell
O people, the Messenger has come to you with the truth from your Lord, so believe, that is better for you
And if you disbelieve, then to God belongs whatever is in the heavens and the earth, and God is All-Knowing, All-Wise
O people, Muhammad, peace and blessings of God be upon him, has come to you with Islam from your Lord
So believe him and believe what he brought to you
Believing in that is better for you than disbelieving in it
If you deny his message, your denial will not harm anyone else
This is because God owns all that is in the heavens and the earth, dominion and creation
And God is aware of what you are becoming in terms of obeying Him in what He commanded you to do and in what He forbade you
Wise in his commands, prohibitions, and other matters in his management
O People of the Book, do not go to extremes in your religion and do not say anything about God except the truth
The Messiah, Jesus, son of Mary, is only the Messenger of God and His Word
And his word he delivered to Mary and a spirit from him
So believe in God and His Messengers, and do not say three things
End, it will be better for you. God is one God
Glory be to Him that he has a son
To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on earth
God is sufficient as a disposer of affairs
O people of the Gospel from Nazareth
Do not exceed the truth in your religion and neglect it
And do not say anything about Jesus other than the truth
Because God did not take a son
What is Christ, you who exaggerate the Son of God as you claim?
But he is Jesus, son of Mary, the Messenger of God
And his word he delivered to Mary
It is the message that God commanded His angels to bring to Mary
Good news from God for her
And a spirit from it, that is, a breath from it
Because blowing is wind
It was said and life from him
It was said that he had mercy on him
It was said that there is a spirit from God
He created it, formed it, then sent it to Mary
It was said that what is meant is Gabriel, peace be upon him
The meaning and the word he delivered to Mary
It was also delivered by Gabriel
All of these statements have a side that is not far from the truth
So believe, O People of the Book, in the oneness and divinity of God
And they believed His Messenger
And do not say that there are three lords
They finished it
Finishing is good for you
What is God, as you say?
But God, who has divinity and worship, is one God who is worshiped
On God Almighty
He refrained from having a son or a wife
To God belongs all that is in the heavens and all that is on earth, both in possession and in creation
How can Christ be the son of God?
And according to what is in the heavens and what is on earth, God is the Guardian, the Controller, and the Provider
Christ will not refuse to be a servant of God
To be a servant of God and the close angels
And whoever refrains from worshiping Him and is arrogant, He will gather them all to Him
Christ will not refuse nor will he be arrogant to be a servant of God
His close messengers will not disdain either
And whoever is proud of worshiping his Lord and arrogant in doing so
He will resurrect them all on the Day of Resurrection
He gathers them for their appointment with him
As for those who believe and do righteous deeds, He will give them their rewards
He will give them their rewards and increase them of His bounty
As for those who disdain and are arrogant, He will punish them with a painful punishment
Then He will punish them with a painful torment, and they will find for themselves no guardian or helper besides God
As for the believers who acknowledge the oneness of God
And those who do good deeds will be given a full and complete reward for their good deeds
He gives them more credit and increase for their good deeds than he knows of an amount
As for those who are too proud to acknowledge God with worship
They were too arrogant to submit to his divinity and worship him
He tortures them with a painful torment
Those who object to themselves will not find a guardian to save them from His torment
There is no helper to help them and save them from their Lord
O people, proof has come to you from your Lord
Proof has come to you from your Lord and We have sent down to you
And We have sent down to you a clear light
O people, an argument has come to you from God
It proves to you the longevity of your religions
He is Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace
And We sent down to you with it a light that makes clear to you clear proof of what is in it for you to be saved from the punishment of God
As for those who believe in God and hold fast to Him, He will admit them into His mercy and bounty and guide them to Him on a straight path.
As for those who believe in God and adhere to the clear light that He sent down to His Prophet, His mercy will befall them, and He will grant them of His bounty what the people of faith have befallen Him, and He will direct them to follow the path of the people of His obedience whom He bestowed upon them.
They ask you for a fatwa. Say, “May God give you a fatwa regarding calamity.”
If a person dies without having a child and having a sister, she gets half of what he left behind
He inherits from her if she has no son
If it is two, they get two-thirds of what he left
If they are brothers, men and women, then the male gets the share of the two females
God makes clear to you that you go astray, and God is against me with everything
Indeed, O Muhammad, you may give them a fatwa regarding kalaala, which is not the same as the child and the parent
Say, “May God give you a fatwa regarding the calamity that a person died having no child, male or female.”
He has a sister, so his sister gets half of his estate, and whatever is left, let him be his sister-in-law
The woman’s brother inherits from her if she dies before him, and if she inherits Kalala
If the sisters left behind are two, they get two-thirds of what their dead brother left behind
If he does not have a son and he inherits a kalalah
If those left behind are among his brothers, men and women, then the male gets the share of two of his sisters
God clarifies to you the division of your inheritance and the rule of kalalah
So that you do not go astray in the matter of inheritance and stray from the right path
And God has knowledge of everything related to the interests of His servants in the division of their inheritances and other things
