87 00:08:09,060 --> 00:08:12,100 And God led him astray with knowledge 88 00:08:12,420 --> 00:08:15,459 He sealed his hearing and his heart 89 00:08:15,459 --> 00:08:18,980 And He placed a veil over his sight 90 00:08:19,540 --> 00:08:24,579 Who will guide him after God? 91 00:08:25,139 --> 00:08:27,779 Do you not remember? 92 00:08:29,350 --> 00:08:32,950 Have you seen, O Muhammad, who takes his desires as his deity? 93 00:08:33,429 --> 00:08:34,950 He worships what he is 94 00:08:35,509 --> 00:08:38,950 And take him from the path of the path in his previous knowledge 95 00:08:39,429 --> 00:08:44,149 Knowing that he would not be guided even if every sign came to him 96 00:08:44,710 --> 00:08:49,509 It was his nature to listen to God’s sermons and take them into consideration 97 00:08:50,070 --> 00:08:54,230 It was also imprinted on his heart so that he could not understand anything about it 98 00:08:54,710 --> 00:08:59,269 He placed a veil on his sight so that he could see the proofs of God 99 00:08:59,669 --> 00:09:02,389 This indicates his oneness 100 00:09:02,950 --> 00:09:05,269 Who will help him achieve the truth? 101 00:09:06,039 --> 00:09:08,440 Do you not remember, O people? 102 00:09:08,759 --> 00:09:13,960 So learn that whoever God does to him as we have described will never be guided 103 00:09:15,399 --> 00:09:23,879 They said, “It is nothing but our worldly life. We die and live, and nothing destroys us except eternity.” 104 00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:31,720 And they have no knowledge of that; they only assume 105 00:09:33,179 --> 00:09:35,340 These polytheists said 106 00:09:35,820 --> 00:09:42,299 There is no life except our worldly life in which we are, and there is no life other than it 107 00:09:42,779 --> 00:09:46,620 We die and our children live after us 108 00:09:47,100 --> 00:09:50,940 So they made the lives of their children after them their lives 109 00:09:51,500 --> 00:09:56,379 And nothing destroys us except the passing of nights and days and the length of our lives 110 00:09:56,940 --> 00:10:00,220 And the polytheists have no certainty of knowledge 111 00:10:00,700 --> 00:10:03,340 They only think so 112 00:10:03,820 --> 00:10:09,820 They are confused about their belief in the truth of what they say with their tongues 113 00:10:13,379 --> 00:10:31,700 And they do not have Our clear signs. Their only proof was that they said, “Bring our fathers if you are truthful.” 114 00:10:33,049 --> 00:10:39,690 And when Our verses are recited to these polytheists, they are clear and evident, banishing doubt 115 00:10:40,169 --> 00:10:46,730 They had no argument against our Messenger who was reciting that to them except what they said to him 116 00:10:47,210 --> 00:10:53,450 Bring us our fathers who perished if you are truthful in what you recite to us 117 00:11:11,110 --> 00:11:27,340 Say, O Muhammad, God, O polytheists, gives you life in this world, then causes you to die in it, then gathers you alive for the Day of Resurrection, of which there is no doubt. 118 00:11:27,899 --> 00:11:34,620 But most people who deny the resurrection do not know the truth of that 119 00:11:36,009 --> 00:11:47,370 To God belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth, and on the day the Hour comes, on that day the invalid will lose 120 00:11:48,889 --> 00:11:58,490 And to God belongs the authority of the seven heavens and the earth, and upon whomever you call other than Him among the gods and equals, His judgment is carried out 121 00:11:58,970 --> 00:12:07,450 And the day the Hour comes in which those who were vain in this world will be ignorant in their words and their supplication to God as a partner 122 00:12:08,580 --> 00:12:23,379 And you will see every nation kneeling, every nation called to its book. Today you will be rewarded for what you used to do 123 00:12:24,700 --> 00:12:34,940 And you will see, O Muhammad, on the day when the Hour will come, the people of every sect and religion will come together, brought to their knees by the terror of that day 124 00:12:34,940 --> 00:12:48,700 All people of a sect and religion will be called to her book, which she dictated to her memorizers. It will be said to her, “Today you will be rewarded and given the rewards for what you did in this world.” 125 00:13:06,409 --> 00:13:15,299 It will be said to every nation that is called on the Resurrection to its book: “Today you will be rewarded for what you used to do.” 126 00:13:15,700 --> 00:13:24,340 Do not be afraid of our reward for that, for it will be pronounced against you if you deny it with the truth, so read it 127 00:13:24,659 --> 00:13:31,620 We used to write down your deeds, so you would record them in the books and write them down 128 00:13:33,190 --> 00:13:45,509 As for those who believe and do righteous deeds, their Lord will admit them into His mercy. This is the clear victory 129 00:13:45,990 --> 00:14:00,230 As for those who disbelieved, did the verses recite to you, but you were arrogant and were a criminal people 130 00:14:04,139 --> 00:14:12,139 So they united with Him and did what God commanded them to do, and their Lord would admit them into His Paradise with His mercy 131 00:14:12,620 --> 00:14:22,620 Their entry into God's mercy on that day is the achievement of what they were asking for, and what is clear is their goal in it is victory 132 00:14:23,340 --> 00:14:32,059 As for those who deny the oneness of God, it will be said to them: Were not My verses recited to you in this world? 133 00:14:32,460 --> 00:14:40,379 But you were too arrogant to listen to it and believe in it, and you were a people earning sins and disbelief in God 134 00:14:41,980 --> 00:14:52,379 And if it is said that God’s promise is true and that the Hour is without doubt, you say, “We do not know.” 135 00:14:52,860 --> 00:15:03,899 You said, "We do not know what the Hour is. We only assume a suspicion, and we are not certain." 136 00:15:05,340 --> 00:15:15,740 And it will be said to them then, when it is said to you that the promise of God that He promised His servants that He would give them life after their death is true 137 00:15:16,460 --> 00:15:24,700 The Hour is coming, there is no doubt about it. You said, “We do not know what the Hour is,” as a denial of God’s promise on your part 138 00:15:25,259 --> 00:15:36,059 You said, “We do not think that the Hour is coming except as a guess, and we are not certain that it is coming or that it will happen.” 139 00:15:37,860 --> 00:15:46,740 The evils of what they had done became apparent to them, and what they mocked befell them 140 00:15:48,139 --> 00:15:54,059 There, the ugliness and evil of the deeds they had done in this world became apparent to them 141 00:15:54,539 --> 00:16:00,139 The punishment of God befell them at that time, which they mocked 142 00:16:01,590 --> 00:16:14,789 It was said, “Today we will forget you just as you forgot the meeting of this day of yours.” 143 00:16:14,789 --> 00:16:22,419 Your abode is the Fire, and you will not have helpers 144 00:16:24,100 --> 00:16:33,700 And it was said to these infidels, “Today we leave you in the torment of Hell just as you abandoned work to save yourself from this day of yours.” 145 00:16:34,340 --> 00:16:38,019 And your abode to which you seek refuge is the fire of Hell 146 00:16:38,500 --> 00:16:47,059 And you have no savior to save you today from the punishment of God, nor any victor to defend you from those who torture you 147 00:16:48,389 --> 00:17:05,109 That is because you took the signs of God in mockery and were deceived by the life of this world. Today they will not depart from it nor will they be reproached 148 00:17:06,490 --> 00:17:17,369 It will be said to them: This is what befell you from God’s punishment, that in this world you took God’s arguments and evidence as a mockery, mocking them. 149 00:17:17,849 --> 00:17:31,930 And the adornments of the worldly life deceived you, so you preferred them to work for what would save you from the punishment of God. Today they will not emerge from the Fire, nor will they be returned to this world to repent. 150 00:17:33,619 --> 00:17:41,140 Praise be to God, Lord of the heavens and Lord of the earth, Lord of the worlds 151 00:17:41,140 --> 00:17:52,660 To Him belongs pride in the heavens and the earth, and He is the Mighty, the Wise 152 00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:18,200 Conclusion from Al-Tabari’s interpretation
