(The other) answered: Allah accepteth only from those who ward off (evil).” (5:27) 00:00:26.059 --> 00:00:31.660 When both offered a sacrifice, and it was accepted from one of them. 00:00:31.899 --> 00:00:37.299 “But recite unto them with truth the tale of the two sons of Adam, how they offered each a sacrifice, and it was accepted from the one of them and it was not accepted from the other.

I fear Allah, the Lord of the Worlds.” (5:28) 00:01:42.359 --> 00:01:48.879 I fear Allah, the Lord of all the worlds." 00:01:50.090 --> 00:01:52.409 The one threatened with murder said to his brother, 00:01:52.409 --> 00:01:55.689 "If you stretch out your hand against me to kill me, 00:01:55.689 --> 00:01:59.450 I am not going to stretch out my hand against you to kill you, 00:01:59.489 --> 00:02:05.170 for I fear, in stretching out my hand against you, Allah, the Sovereign of all creation, 00:02:05.170 --> 00:02:09.129 lest He punish me for extending my hand against you." 00:02:09.129 --> 00:02:15.849 "Indeed, I want you to bear my sin and your sin, 00:02:15.849 --> 00:02:20.490 “Lo! I would rather thou shouldst bear the punishment of the sin against me and thine own sin and become one of the owners of the fire. That is the reward of evil-doers.” (5:29) 00:02:20.490 --> 00:02:27.419 and that is the recompense of the wrongdoers." 00:02:27.419 --> 00:02:31.780 "Indeed, I want you to depart bearing your sin alongside the sin of killing me, 00:02:31.780 --> 00:02:33.939 because I will not kill you, 00:02:33.939 --> 00:02:38.180 so that by killing me, you will become one of the inhabitants of Hell; 00:02:38.180 --> 00:02:41.580 and the Fire is the reward of those who abandon the path of truth 00:02:41.580 --> 00:02:44.949 and transgress the limits set for them." 00:02:44.949 --> 00:02:48.669 “But (the other's) mind imposed on him the killing of his brother, so he slew him and became one of the losers.” (5:30) 00:02:48.669 --> 00:02:54.259 “But (the other's) mind imposed on him the killing of his brother, so he slew him and became one of the losers.” (5:30) 00:02:54.259 --> 00:02:57.219 But his soul prompted him to kill his brother, 00:02:57.219 --> 00:03:00.819 and emboldened and aided him, so he killed him, 00:03:00.819 --> 00:03:03.379 and he became one of the losers, 00:03:03.379 --> 00:03:06.780 who sold their Hereafter for their worldly life, 00:03:06.780 --> 00:03:10.580 suffered total loss, and failed in their bargain. 00:03:10.580 --> 00:03:15.379 “Then Allah sent a raven scratching up the ground, to show him how to hide his brother's naked corpse. He said: Woe unto me! Am I not able to be as this raven and so hide my brother's naked corpse? And he became repentant.” (5:31) 00:03:15.379 --> 00:03:20.340 to show him how to conceal his brother's corpse. 00:03:20.340 --> 00:03:26.379 “Then Allah sent a raven scratching up the ground, to show him how to hide his brother's naked corpse.

For know that Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.” (5:34) 00:08:40.509 --> 00:08:46.909 Thus, the repentance of a brigand who defends himself independently or with a group, prior to being apprehended, 00:08:46.909 --> 00:08:50.549 waives from him worldly liabilities regarding the prescribed legal penalties (*hudud*) of Allah, 00:08:50.549 --> 00:08:54.149 mandatory damages, blood revenge, and legal retaliation, 00:08:54.149 --> 00:09:00.429 except for specific assets belonging to Muslims or protected non-Muslims still in his physical possession, 00:09:00.429 --> 00:09:02.710 which must be returned to their rightful owners. 00:09:02.750 --> 00:09:10.549 Know, O believers, that Allah does not hold accountable whoever repents among those who waged war against Allah and His Messenger; 00:09:10.549 --> 00:09:14.230 rather, He pardons him and conceals his sins, 00:09:14.230 --> 00:09:16.750 showing mercy to him in His pardon 00:09:16.750 --> 00:09:20.259 and in withholding His punishment for them. 00:09:20.259 --> 00:09:23.779 O you who have believed, be mindful of Allah, 00:09:23.779 --> 00:09:26.299 seek the means of nearness to Him, 00:09:26.299 --> 00:09:31.500 and strive in His cause, 00:09:31.539 --> 00:09:35.419 so that you may succeed. 00:09:35.419 --> 00:09:45.179 “As for those who disbelieve, lo! if all that is in the earth were theirs, and as much again therewith, to ransom them from the doom on the Day of Resurrection, it would not be accepted from them. Theirs will be a painful doom.” (5:36) 00:09:45.179 --> 00:09:53.740 “As for those who disbelieve, lo! if all that is in the earth were theirs, and as much again therewith, to ransom them from the doom on the Day of Resurrection, it would not be accepted from them. Theirs will be a painful doom.” (5:36) 00:09:53.740 --> 00:09:58.809 and for them is a painful punishment. 00:09:58.929 --> 00:10:02.370 O you who have believed in Allah and His Messenger, 00:10:02.370 --> 00:10:05.889 respond to Allah in what He has commanded you and forbidden you, 00:10:05.889 --> 00:10:09.730 and seek closeness to Him by performing actions that please Him. 00:10:09.730 --> 00:10:15.690 And strive, O believers, against His enemies and your enemies in defense of His religion and Law, 00:10:15.690 --> 00:10:22.090 and exert yourselves in fighting them to compel them to enter the upright Islamic faith, 00:10:22.090 --> 00:10:27.889 so that you may prosper and attain eternal life and immortality in His Gardens. 00:10:27.929 --> 00:10:32.450 Indeed, those who disbelieve in the Lordship of their Lord and worship others alongside Him— 00:10:32.450 --> 00:10:37.049 even if they possessed all that is on the earth and the like of it therewith, 00:10:37.049 --> 00:10:40.809 to ransom themselves thereby from the punishment of Allah on the Day of Resurrection, 00:10:40.809 --> 00:10:43.250 and offered all of it as ransom, 00:10:43.250 --> 00:10:49.529 Allah would not accept it from them as ransom or compensation to spare them from His punishment and retribution; 00:10:49.529 --> 00:10:56.159 rather, He will punish them in scalding water on the Day of Resurrection with a painful torment. 00:10:56.200 --> 00:11:05.720 “They will wish to come forth from the Fire, but they will not come forth from it. Theirs will be a lasting doom.” (5:37) 00:11:05.720 --> 00:11:11.200 and for them is an everlasting punishment. 00:11:11.200 --> 00:11:16.840 These disbelievers will desire to emerge from the Fire after entering it, 00:11:16.840 --> 00:11:19.559 “They will wish to come forth from the Fire, but they will not come forth from it. Theirs will be a lasting doom.” (5:37) 00:11:19.559 --> 00:11:26.830 but for them is a permanent, abiding punishment that will never depart from them or be removed. 00:11:26.830 --> 00:11:38.309 As for the male thief and the female thief, cut off their hands as a recompense for what they committed—a deterrent punishment from Allah. 00:11:38.309 --> 00:11:43.299 And Allah is Almighty, All-Wise. 00:11:43.299 --> 00:11:48.419 And whoever steals, whether a man or a woman, cut off their right hands 00:11:48.419 --> 00:11:53.820 as retribution for their theft, as a punishment from Allah. 00:11:53.860 --> 00:11:58.460 And Allah is Almighty in His retribution against this male thief and female thief, 00:11:58.460 --> 00:12:01.139 as well as all other sinners, 00:12:01.139 --> 00:12:05.950 All-Wise in His judgment concerning them and His decree upon them. 00:12:05.950 --> 00:12:15.309 “But whoso repenteth after his wrongdoing and amendeth, lo! Allah will relent toward him. Lo! Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.” (5:39) 00:12:15.309 --> 00:12:21.509 Indeed, Allah is All-Forgiving, Most Merciful. 00:12:21.509 --> 00:12:24.230 So whoever among these thieves repents, 00:12:24.269 --> 00:12:27.830 turns away from the disobedience that displeases Allah 00:12:27.830 --> 00:12:34.029 after his transgression and doing what Allah forbade him regarding stealing people's wealth, 00:12:34.029 --> 00:12:35.750 and reforms himself, 00:12:35.750 --> 00:12:40.710 then Allah, Mighty and Majestic, will return him to that which He loves and is pleased with. 00:12:40.710 --> 00:12:45.909 Indeed, Allah conceals the sins of whoever repents and turns to Him by pardoning his punishment, 00:12:45.909 --> 00:12:51.409 being Merciful to him and to His servants who repent to Him from their sins. 00:12:51.409 --> 00:12:57.730 Do you not know that to Allah belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth? 00:12:57.730 --> 00:13:10.649 “Knowest thou not that unto Allah belongeth the Sovereignty of the heavens and the earth? He punisheth whom He will, and forgiveth whom He will. Allah is Able to do all things.” (5:40) 00:13:10.649 --> 00:13:17.529 And Allah is Most Capable over all things. 00:13:17.570 --> 00:13:22.970 Do these claimants who pretend to be Allah's children and His beloved ones not know 00:13:22.970 --> 00:13:27.090 that Allah is the Sovereign Controller of whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth, 00:13:27.090 --> 00:13:29.649 its Disposer and Creator? 00:13:29.649 --> 00:13:34.370 He punishes whom He wills of His creation in this world for his disobedience, 00:13:34.370 --> 00:13:37.610 and He forgives whom He wills among them in this world 00:13:37.610 --> 00:13:41.289 by accepting his repentance from his disbelief and disobedience. 00:13:41.289 --> 00:13:44.690 And Allah is fully Capable of punishing whom He wills to punish, 00:13:44.730 --> 00:13:50.009 forgiving what He wills to forgive, and all other matters, 00:13:50.009 --> 00:13:51.929 for creation is His creation, 00:13:51.929 --> 00:13:53.570 dominion is His dominion, 00:13:53.570 --> 00:13:57.110 and servants are His servants.
