66 00:05:54,959 --> 00:05:57,079 From their exposure to God's punishment 67 00:05:57,839 --> 00:06:01,519 On the day when what their command says will come of God’s punishment 68 00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:04,720 Those who have wasted what they were commanded to do say 69 00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:07,519 The messengers of our Lord have come with the truth 70 00:06:08,490 --> 00:06:13,649 Do we have any friends and guardians today who can intercede for us with our Lord? 71 00:06:14,089 --> 00:06:17,490 Their intercession will save us from what has befallen us 72 00:06:18,009 --> 00:06:20,610 Or we return to this world again 73 00:06:20,930 --> 00:06:23,089 We work on it to his satisfaction 74 00:06:23,899 --> 00:06:26,139 They have deceived themselves 75 00:06:26,459 --> 00:06:30,660 By selling them money, he risked eternal bliss in the afterlife 76 00:06:31,139 --> 00:06:33,740 With the vileness of the fleeting display of the world 77 00:06:34,379 --> 00:06:39,500 And their friends, who used to worship them instead of God, were terrified of them 78 00:07:01,810 --> 00:07:05,089 He is your master and the fixer of your affairs, people 79 00:07:05,689 --> 00:07:07,970 He is the deity to whom worship is due 80 00:07:08,529 --> 00:07:12,529 Who created the heavens and the earth in six days 81 00:07:13,209 --> 00:07:14,689 Ten years ago 82 00:07:15,329 --> 00:07:17,009 And ten years 83 00:07:17,649 --> 00:07:19,610 And ten years 84 00:07:20,129 --> 00:07:22,540 And ten years 85 00:07:22,980 --> 00:07:24,300 And ten years 86 00:07:24,860 --> 00:07:26,420 And ten years 87 00:07:26,899 --> 00:07:28,540 And ten years 88 00:07:29,300 --> 00:07:30,620 And ten years 89 00:07:30,699 --> 00:07:32,339 Lays down land in six days 90 00:07:33,060 --> 00:07:34,579 Then he ascended to the throne 91 00:07:35,220 --> 00:07:37,180 Night turns into day 92 00:07:37,579 --> 00:07:38,779 So he wears it 93 00:07:39,100 --> 00:07:41,459 Until his gaze and light are gone 94 00:07:42,060 --> 00:07:44,420 The night quickly demands the day 95 00:07:45,180 --> 00:07:47,579 He created the sun, moon, and stars 96 00:07:48,339 --> 00:07:49,579 God commanded them 97 00:07:49,980 --> 00:07:51,100 So I obeyed his command 98 00:07:51,740 --> 00:07:53,579 Indeed, all creation belongs to God 99 00:07:54,060 --> 00:07:56,779 It is something that cannot be contradicted or rejected 100 00:07:56,779 --> 00:08:03,779 Blessed be God, our God, to whom everything is worshiped, Lord of the Worlds 101 00:08:03,779 --> 00:08:17,310 Pray to your Lord humbly and secretly. He does not like aggressors 102 00:08:17,310 --> 00:08:21,310 O people, pray to your Lord in humility and submissiveness 103 00:08:21,310 --> 00:08:26,310 And secretly, with the humility of your hearts, not openly or hypocritically 104 00:08:26,310 --> 00:08:35,309 Your Lord does not love someone who transgresses and exceeds the limit that he has set for his servants in his supplication and asking his Lord 105 00:08:35,309 --> 00:08:54,980 And do not cause corruption in the land after it has been put in order, and call upon Him in fear and hope. Indeed, God’s mercy is close to those who do good 106 00:08:54,980 --> 00:09:02,620 Do not associate anything with God on earth and do not disobey Him on it after God has restored it 107 00:09:02,620 --> 00:09:06,620 By sending messengers as preachers of the truth 108 00:09:06,620 --> 00:09:12,620 And pray and work sincerely for him, fearing his punishment and hoping for his reward 109 00:09:12,620 --> 00:09:18,620 The reward of God, which He promised the doers of good, is near to them 110 00:09:18,620 --> 00:09:39,230 It is He who sends the winds bringing good news before His mercy, until when they carry heavy clouds, we drive them to a dead land 111 00:09:39,230 --> 00:10:00,389 So We sent down water with it, and brought forth with it all kinds of fruits. Thus We bring forth the dead, so that you may remember 112 00:10:02,190 --> 00:10:09,190 It is He who sends the winds bringing good news of rain before His mercy and creates heavy clouds with them 113 00:10:09,190 --> 00:10:19,190 Even if God carried it, God would send it to revive a dead country, and He would send down rain on it and bring forth all kinds of fruits 114 00:10:19,190 --> 00:10:26,190 Just as we revive this dead country, so we bring the dead out of their graves alive 115 00:10:26,190 --> 00:10:35,190 So that you may consider and learn that whoever has the power to do so, it is within his power to revive the dead after they have perished 116 00:10:36,190 --> 00:10:54,149 And the good land brings forth its vegetation by the permission of its Lord, and the bad one does not come forth except with distress. Thus We convey the signs to a people who are grateful. 117 00:10:55,889 --> 00:11:05,889 And the country has good soil. Its plants grow when God sends down rain, with His permission, and its fruit is good in its season and time. 118 00:11:05,889 --> 00:11:15,889 And he who is wicked and spoils the soil does not produce his plants except with hardship and hardship. Thus We explain verse after verse 119 00:11:15,889 --> 00:11:26,889 We give example after example of people who thank God for bestowing guidance upon them and enlightening them on the path of the people of misguidance. 120 00:11:26,889 --> 00:11:36,889 This is a parable that God strikes for the believer and the unbeliever. The good country that grows plants with the permission of its Lord is a parable for the believer 121 00:11:36,889 --> 00:11:42,889 And the one who is evil does not produce his plants except in disrepair, like an unbeliever 122 00:11:46,779 --> 00:12:03,779 We said to Noah to his people, and he said, “O my people, Abdullah, you have no god other than Him. I fear for you the torment of a great day.” 123 00:12:03,779 --> 00:12:14,419 Our Lord swore that He sent Noah to his people and said to those of them who disbelieved, O my people, the servant of God is His, to whom worship belongs 124 00:12:14,419 --> 00:12:23,419 For you do not have a deity that requires you to worship other than Him, so I fear for you if you do not do that 125 00:12:23,419 --> 00:12:30,419 The torment of a day in which your affliction will be great by coming to you out of the wrath of your Lord 126 00:12:30,419 --> 00:12:40,320 The leaders of his people said, “We see you in clear error.” 127 00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:53,960 The group of men from Noah’s people said, “Indeed, we see you, O Noah, in a matter that departs from the truth. Its departure from the true intention is clear to those who contemplate it.” 128 00:12:53,960 --> 00:13:04,700 He said, “O my people, I am not misguided, but I am a messenger from the Lord of the Worlds.” 129 00:13:04,700 --> 00:13:15,179 Noah said, “O my people, why did I command you to profess monotheism for God out of my abandonment of the truth and misguidance from the path of truth?” 130 00:13:15,179 --> 00:13:25,179 But I am a messenger to you from the Lord of the Worlds, acknowledging His oneness and disavowal of equals and gods 131 00:13:25,179 --> 00:13:36,039 I convey to you the messages of my Lord and advise you, and I know from God what you do not know 132 00:13:36,039 --> 00:13:49,549 He sent me to you, for I convey to you the messages of my Lord and advise you in warning you of God’s punishment, and I know from God what you do not know. 133 00:13:49,549 --> 00:13:54,549 That his punishment will not be averted from the criminal people 134 00:13:54,549 --> 00:14:16,769 Or do you wonder that there has come to you a reminder from your Lord about a man from among you to warn you and that you may fear, and that you may receive mercy? 135 00:14:16,769 --> 00:14:27,500 Or do you wonder that there has come to you a reminder from God and an admonition with a man from among you to warn you of God’s punishment and to make you fear His punishment? 136 00:14:27,500 --> 00:14:34,500 And so that you may fear God’s punishment and punishment, and may your Lord have mercy on you if you areware of His punishment 137 00:14:34,500 --> 00:14:56,460 But they denied him, so We saved him and those with him in the ark, and We drowned those who denied Our signs. Indeed, they were a blind people. 138 00:14:56,460 --> 00:15:15,740 So Noah's people lied and disobeyed the command of their Lord, so God saved him in the ark and those with him who believed in him, and We drowned those who denied his arguments, if they were a people blind to the truth. 139 00:15:15,740 --> 00:15:19,740 Conclusion from Al-Tabari’s interpretation
