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

00:00:05.160 --> 00:00:08.080
A summary of the Tafsir of al-Tabari.

00:00:08.589 --> 00:00:12.710
Abridged by Dr. Aqil Ibn Salim al-Shammari.

00:00:13.990 --> 00:00:16.030
Surah al-Humazah.

00:00:18.379 --> 00:00:22.260
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

00:00:22.260 --> 00:00:25.980
Woe to every scorner and mocker.

00:00:25.980 --> 00:00:30.539
“Who hath gathered wealth (of this world) and arranged it.” (104:2)

00:00:30.539 --> 00:00:34.619
He thinks that his wealth will make him immortal.

00:00:34.780 --> 00:00:40.219
“Nay, but verily he will be flung to the Consuming One.” (104:4)

00:00:40.219 --> 00:00:43.299
“Ah, what will convey unto thee what the Consuming One is!” (104:5)

00:00:43.299 --> 00:00:46.140
The fire of Allah, fueled.

00:00:46.140 --> 00:00:49.820
“Which leapeth up over the hearts (of men).” (104:7)

00:00:49.820 --> 00:00:54.539
Indeed, it is closed in upon them.

00:00:54.539 --> 00:00:57.939
In extended columns.

00:00:59.509 --> 00:01:03.469
The valley flows with the pus and discharge of the people of the Fire.

00:01:03.789 --> 00:01:06.269
For everyone who backbites others.

00:01:06.269 --> 00:01:10.120
He backbites them, finds fault with them, and disparages them.

00:01:10.120 --> 00:01:13.400
Who has gathered wealth and counted it.

00:01:13.400 --> 00:01:16.000
And did not spend it in the way of Allah.

00:01:16.000 --> 00:01:18.599
And did not fulfill the right of Allah regarding it.

00:01:18.599 --> 00:01:22.400
Rather, he gathered it, stored it, and guarded it.

00:01:22.400 --> 00:01:27.280
He thinks that the wealth he gathered, counted, and was stingy in spending,

00:01:27.280 --> 00:01:31.319
Will make him immortal in this world and ward off death from him.

00:01:31.359 --> 00:01:34.719
No, it is not as he imagined.

00:01:34.719 --> 00:01:37.319
His wealth will not make him immortal.

00:01:37.319 --> 00:01:40.519
He will surely be cast on the Day of Resurrection into the Fire.

00:01:40.519 --> 00:01:45.719
I believe it was named as such because it crushes everything cast into it.

00:01:45.719 --> 00:01:49.680
And what can make you know, O Muhammad, what the Crusher is?

00:01:49.680 --> 00:01:52.159
It is the fire of Allah, fueled.

00:01:52.159 --> 00:01:56.640
Which rises, with its pain and intensity, over the hearts.

00:01:56.640 --> 00:01:59.959
Indeed, the Crusher, whose attributes have been described,

00:02:00.000 --> 00:02:04.200
Is closed upon those who are scorners and mockers.

00:02:04.200 --> 00:02:07.120
And they are punished with columns in the Fire.

00:02:07.120 --> 00:02:11.080
And Allah knows best how He punishes them with it.

00:02:11.080 --> 00:02:18.620
No report has reached us that constitutes a proof regarding the nature of their punishment by it.
