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

00:00:05.160 --> 00:00:08.019
Conclusion from Al-Tabari’s interpretation

00:00:08.580 --> 00:00:12.740
It was summarized by Dr. Aqeel bin Salem Al-Shammari

00:00:14.080 --> 00:00:16.039
Surat Al-Zumar

00:00:18.620 --> 00:00:23.079
In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

00:00:23.890 --> 00:00:33.130
Say, O My servants who have transgressed against themselves, do not despair of God’s mercy

00:00:33.130 --> 00:00:45.170
God forgives all sins. He is the Forgiving, the Merciful

00:00:46.770 --> 00:00:52.289
O My servants who are people of faith and polytheism who have transgressed against themselves

00:00:52.530 --> 00:00:55.329
He did not single out a spendthrift without a spendthrift

00:00:55.649 --> 00:00:58.009
Do not despair of God's mercy

00:00:58.469 --> 00:01:04.469
God covers all sins by pardoning those who commit them if they repent of them

00:01:04.950 --> 00:01:10.549
It is He who is Forgiving and Merciful to them, to punish them for it after their repentance

00:01:11.930 --> 00:01:32.530
And repent to your Lord and submit to Him before the torment comes upon you, and then you will not be helped

00:01:32.849 --> 00:01:53.969
And follow the best of what has been sent down to you from your Lord before the torment comes upon you suddenly while you are not aware

00:01:55.299 --> 00:02:00.780
And come, O people, to your Lord in repentance and submit to Him in obedience

00:02:01.099 --> 00:02:09.699
Before the punishment comes to you from Him for your disbelief in Him, then no helper will help you and save you from His punishment.

00:02:10.419 --> 00:02:14.900
And follow, O people, what your Lord has commanded you to do in its revelation

00:02:15.259 --> 00:02:17.740
And avoid what He has forbidden you to do

00:02:18.340 --> 00:02:21.979
This is the best of what has been sent down to us from our Lord

00:02:22.460 --> 00:02:29.379
Before the punishment of God comes upon you suddenly and you do not know it until He covers you

00:02:31.639 --> 00:02:50.759
Do not say to yourself, “Oh, how sorry you are for what you have dispersed in the presence of God, even if you are among those who mock.”

00:02:52.550 --> 00:02:56.229
And repent to your Lord, lest any soul say:

00:02:56.750 --> 00:03:01.229
How I regret what I wasted in doing what God commanded me to do

00:03:01.710 --> 00:03:07.909
And if you are among those who mock the command of God, His Book, His Messenger, and those who believe in Him

00:03:09.259 --> 00:03:17.340
Or do you say that if God had guided me, I would have been among the pious?

00:03:17.900 --> 00:03:27.219
Or you say when you see the torment: If I had a chance, I would be among the doers of good

00:03:28.580 --> 00:03:37.580
And that no other soul should say, “If God had guided me to the truth and given me guidance, I would have been among those who feared Him.”

00:03:38.020 --> 00:03:42.539
Or that you do not say anything else when you see the punishment of God and witness it

00:03:43.060 --> 00:03:49.979
If I were to return to this world, I would be one of the doers of good who did well in obeying their Lord

00:03:51.240 --> 00:04:06.240
Indeed, My signs have come to you, but you denied them and were arrogant and were among the disbelievers

00:04:07.860 --> 00:04:09.860
What do you say?

00:04:10.379 --> 00:04:18.019
Indeed, my proofs have come to you through a messenger that I sent to you and a book that I sent down to be recited to you

00:04:18.660 --> 00:04:23.220
So you denied My verses and were too arrogant to accept them and follow them

00:04:23.860 --> 00:04:28.459
I was among those who did the work of the unbelievers and followed their method

00:04:29.930 --> 00:04:44.170
And on the Day of Resurrection, you will see those who lied about God, their faces blackened. Is there not a resting place for the arrogant in Hell?

00:04:45.660 --> 00:04:56.540
And on the Day of Resurrection, you will see, O Muhammad, those who lied about God and claimed that He had a son and that He had a partner, their faces blackened.

00:04:57.339 --> 00:05:00.939
Is there no shelter in Hell for those who are arrogant before God?

00:05:02.829 --> 00:05:18.829
And God will save those who fear God, and they will not be touched by evil, nor will they grieve

00:05:18.829 --> 00:05:37.860
And God will save from Hell and its torment those who fear Him by performing His obligations and protect us from His disobedience by their victory. Nothing will touch the God-fearing from the harm of Hell, nor will they grieve over what they missed from the pleasures of this world.

00:05:50.819 --> 00:06:02.899
And by the heavens and the earth, and those who disbelieve in the signs of God - those are the losers

00:06:04.509 --> 00:06:12.589
God, who has divinity, is the Creator of all things and is over all things through preservation and perfection

00:06:12.910 --> 00:06:30.180
To Him are the keys to the treasures of the heavens and the earth. He opens them to whomever He wishes and withholds them from whomever He loves among His creation. And those who disbelieve in the arguments of God and deny them and deny them - those are the deceived.

00:06:31.459 --> 00:06:41.519
Say, “Do you command me to worship anyone other than God, you ignorant people?”

00:06:42.930 --> 00:06:54.209
Say, O Muhammad, to the polytheists of your people: Is there anyone other than God? You ignorant of God, you command me to worship, and worship is not suitable for anything other than Him.

00:06:55.699 --> 00:07:16.579
It has already been revealed to you and to those before you: If you associate others, your work will be nullified and you will be among the losers

00:07:17.629 --> 00:07:32.350
And indeed your Lord has revealed to you, O Muhammad, and to those before you among the messengers: If you associate anything with Him, your work will be nullified, and you will be among those who are destroyed by associating anything with God.

00:07:32.350 --> 00:07:53.660
Do not worship what these polytheists from your people have commanded you to do, O Muhammad, but rather God, so worship and be among those who are thankful to God for His blessings.

00:08:04.300 --> 00:08:19.660
Because His fist is on the Day of Resurrection and the heavens are folded in His right hand. Glory be to Him and Most High above what they associate with Him

00:08:35.139 --> 00:08:59.490
And he blew on the wall, and everyone in the heavens and everyone on earth was shocked, except whom God willed. Then he blew on it again, and lo, they were standing and watching.

00:09:06.929 --> 00:09:36.500
Except those whom God wills, and by exception he meant the martyrs and in the shock of Gabriel, the Angel of Death, and those who bear the Throne, and by exception he meant the martyrs, and when the wall was blown another blast and it was mentioned that there were forty years between them, then they would rise from their graves and their places on the earth, alive as they were before their death, looking at the command of God regarding them.

00:09:37.820 --> 00:10:02.460
And the earth shone with the light of its Lord, and the Book was established, and prophets and martyrs were brought, and it was judged between them with justice, and they would not be wronged

00:10:03.580 --> 00:10:28.860
So the earth was illuminated with the light of its Lord, and that is when the Most Merciful appears to decide judgment between His creation and establishes a book of their deeds to hold them accountable and reward them. The prophets were brought to ask their Lord about what their nations had answered them with, and the martyrs were brought, and they are the nation of Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace.

00:10:28.860 --> 00:10:40.100
It was decided between the prophets and its nations with truth that no one should be held responsible for the sin of others and that no soul should be punished except for what it has earned

00:10:40.100 --> 00:10:51.090
And every soul has been repaid for what it has done, and He knows best what they do

00:10:51.090 --> 00:11:05.330
Then God will reward every soul for its good and evil deeds, and He knows best what they do in this world, whether obedience or disobedience, and He will reward them for it on the Day of Resurrection.

00:11:22.049 --> 00:11:50.769
And its keepers said to them, “Have there not come to you messengers from among you, reciting to you the verses of your Lord and warning you of the meeting of this day of yours?” They said, “Yes, but the word of torment has come true upon the disbelievers.”

00:11:51.919 --> 00:12:05.179
And those who disbelieved in God were gathered into His Fire, which He had prepared for them in groups, until when they reached it, its seven gates were opened, and He told them of its strength.

00:12:05.179 --> 00:12:19.179
Have not messengers from among you come to you, reciting to you the Book of God revealed to His messengers and His proofs with which He sent His messengers, and warning you of what you will meet on this day of yours?

00:12:19.259 --> 00:12:32.509
They said, “Yes, messengers from among us have come to us and warned us of our meeting on this day,” but the Word of God has mandated that His punishment be for those who disbelieve in Him.

00:12:32.509 --> 00:12:44.460
It was said, “Enter the gates of Hell to abide therein, for wretched is the abode of the arrogant.”

00:12:44.620 --> 00:13:03.279
Then the keepers of Hell will say to those who disbelieve, then enter the seven gates of Hell according to your positions in them and stay therein, for wretched is the abode of those who are arrogant before God, Hell on the Day of Resurrection.

00:13:03.360 --> 00:13:29.440
Those who feared their Lord were led in groups to Paradise until, when they reached it, its gates were opened, and its keepers said to them, “Peace be upon you. You have been blessed, so enter it to abide forever.”

00:13:30.590 --> 00:13:55.259
And those who feared their Lord by performing His obligations and committed their sins were gathered to Paradise in groups until, when they came, its gates were opened and its keepers said to them, “It is safe from God, lest any calamity or harm befall you. May your deeds in this world be good, so today is your resting place.”

00:13:55.259 --> 00:14:16.379
And they said, Praise be to God, who fulfilled his promise to us and gave us an inheritance of the earth. We may reside in Paradise wherever we wish, for what a wonderful reward for those who work.

00:14:16.379 --> 00:14:36.700
And those who led groups and entered it said, “Thank you sincerely to God, who has fulfilled His promise to us, which He promised us in this world, and has made the land of Paradise which would belong to the people of Hell. If they had obeyed God in this world, they would have entered it as our inheritance.”

00:14:36.700 --> 00:14:48.899
We make Paradise a home and dwell therein wherever we love and desire, for what a blessing is the reward for those who are obedient to God and work for Him in this world

00:14:48.899 --> 00:15:12.899
And you will see the angels surrounding the throne, praising their Lord, and it has been decided between them with justice, and it is said: Praise be to God, Lord of the worlds.

00:15:12.899 --> 00:15:25.659
And you see, O Muhammad, the angels staring from around the Throne of the Most Gracious, meaning by the Throne, the Bed, praying around the Throne of God in thanks to Him.

00:15:25.659 --> 00:15:40.789
And God judged between the prophets who were brought and the martyrs and its nations with justice, and the end of the judgment between them was concluded with thanksgiving to the One who initiated their creation, to whom belongs divinity.

00:15:40.789 --> 00:15:50.789
He rules over all creation in the heavens and earth, including angels, jinn, humans, and other types of creation

00:15:50.789 --> 00:15:56.460
