WEBVTT 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.200 In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful 00:00:05.169 --> 00:00:08.070 Conclusion from Al-Tabari’s interpretation 00:00:08.589 --> 00:00:12.689 It was summarized by Dr. Aqeel bin Salem Al-Shammari 00:00:14.050 --> 00:00:16.550 Surat Al-Ankabut 00:00:18.760 --> 00:00:22.660 In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful 00:00:22.859 --> 00:00:31.059 A thousand no min 00:00:31.059 --> 00:00:37.159 I think people should be left alone and say we are safe 00:00:37.159 --> 00:00:41.450 No, and they are not tempted 00:00:41.450 --> 00:00:44.350 A thousand no min 00:00:44.350 --> 00:00:50.049 I think that those of your companions who left, O Muhammad, were harmed by the polytheists 00:00:50.049 --> 00:00:52.649 To leave them untested 00:00:52.649 --> 00:00:55.350 That they said, “We believe in you, O Muhammad.” 00:00:55.350 --> 00:00:59.250 So we believed you in what you brought to us from God 00:00:59.250 --> 00:01:01.850 No, let's test them 00:01:01.850 --> 00:01:06.409 So that the truthful among them may be distinguished from the liar 00:01:06.510 --> 00:01:11.310 We have tempted those before them 00:01:11.909 --> 00:01:15.310 Let God know those who are truthful 00:01:15.310 --> 00:01:19.010 And they do not know who they are liars 00:01:20.310 --> 00:01:24.010 We have tested the nations before them 00:01:24.010 --> 00:01:26.810 From those to whom We sent Our Messenger 00:01:26.810 --> 00:01:30.409 So We tested those who followed them with those who turned away from them 00:01:30.909 --> 00:01:36.310 So let God know that those of them who are true to what they say are safe 00:01:36.310 --> 00:01:43.750 And let God reveal the truth of the truthful among them in his saying, “We believe in God” from the liar of the liar among them. 00:01:45.420 --> 00:01:56.340 Or do those who do bad deeds think that they will precede us? How bad is their judgment? 00:01:58.189 --> 00:02:04.109 Or do those who associate others with God think that they will defeat us and let us lose themselves? 00:02:04.549 --> 00:02:08.469 We cannot defeat them and take revenge on them for their polytheism in God 00:02:09.189 --> 00:02:13.710 Their rule has become worse when they decide to go ahead of us themselves 00:02:15.439 --> 00:02:27.280 Whoever hopes to meet God, God’s term will surely come to him, and He is the All-Hearing, the All-Knowing 00:02:29.020 --> 00:02:32.979 Whoever hopes in God on the day of meeting him and covets His reward 00:02:33.620 --> 00:02:40.300 God’s deadline for sending His creation for reward and punishment is coming soon 00:02:41.240 --> 00:02:49.800 And God is the Hearer of his saying, “We believe in God, the All-Knowing” of the truth of his saying that he believed in his lying about it 00:02:51.680 --> 00:03:02.680 And whoever strives, strives only for himself. Indeed, God is Self-sufficient of the worlds 00:03:04.610 --> 00:03:09.530 Whoever strives against his enemy from among the polytheists is only fighting for himself 00:03:10.129 --> 00:03:16.449 Because he does this seeking reward from God for his jihad and escaping punishment 00:03:17.340 --> 00:03:26.780 There is no need for God to do that, because God is independent of all His creation. He has dominion, creation, and command 00:03:27.139 --> 00:03:46.060 And those who believe and do righteous deeds - We will surely remit their sins from them and reward them with the best of what they used to do. 00:03:47.389 --> 00:03:51.710 And those who believe in God and His Messenger and do righteous deeds 00:03:52.110 --> 00:03:57.110 That We will atone for them their evil deeds which they committed in their polytheism 00:03:57.110 --> 00:04:09.110 And We will reward them for the good deeds they did in their Islam, the best of what they did during their polytheism, while We expiate their evil deeds. 00:04:09.110 --> 00:04:15.240 And We have enjoined on mankind to be good to his parents 00:04:15.240 --> 00:04:31.439 And if they strive against you to associate with Me that of which you have no knowledge, do not obey them. We will return you to Me, and I will inform you of what you used to do. 00:04:45.850 --> 00:05:17.449 What you have no knowledge of, seeking to please them, but differing from them in that, to Me is your return and your destination on the Day of Resurrection, so I will inform you of what You used to do good deeds and bad deeds in this world, then I would reward you for what you did. 00:05:17.449 --> 00:05:30.410 and His Messenger, and they did righteous deeds, and that is to perform the duties of God and avoid what is forbidden. We will certainly admit them into the entrance of the righteous. That is Paradise 00:05:48.060 --> 00:06:13.850 And among the people are those who say, “We affirmed God, so We united Him,” but the polytheists offend him in his acknowledgment of God. 00:06:14.810 --> 00:06:24.810 The temptation of the people made him in this world equal to the punishment of God in the afterlife, so he abandoned his belief in God and returned to disbelief in Him. 00:06:24.810 --> 00:06:33.810 And if victory comes from your Lord, O Muhammad, to those who believe in Him, these apostates will surely abandon their faith 00:06:33.810 --> 00:06:41.810 O believers, we were with you, victorious over your enemies, a lie and a deceit. 00:06:41.810 --> 00:06:48.899 O people, does not God know better than everyone what is in the breasts of all of His creation? 00:06:48.899 --> 00:06:58.060 How can he deceive someone from whom nothing is hidden and no secret or public information is hidden from him? 00:06:58.060 --> 00:07:06.060 And that God may make us know those who believe, and that He may make us know the hypocrites. 00:07:06.060 --> 00:07:12.860 And may God teach us his friends and his party, and let us know the hypocrites. 00:07:12.860 --> 00:07:17.860 By showing them through adversity, trial, and testing 00:07:17.860 --> 00:07:26.620 And those who disbelieved said to those who believed, “Follow our path, and we will protect you from your sins.” 00:07:26.620 --> 00:07:37.620 And they are not responsible for any of their sins. Indeed, they are liars 00:07:37.620 --> 00:07:45.069 And those who disbelieved in God said, “Be on the same path as we are in denying the resurrection.” 00:07:45.069 --> 00:07:52.069 For if you follow Our path, you will be resurrected after death and rewarded for good deeds 00:07:53.069 --> 00:08:00.069 We will bear the sins of your sins then, and they lied when they said that to them 00:08:00.069 --> 00:08:09.069 They bear nothing of the sins of their sins. Indeed, they are liars in what they said to them and promised them 00:08:24.000 --> 00:08:35.610 And let these polytheists who say to those who believe in Him, “Follow our path, and we will protect you from your sins,” be held accountable. 00:08:35.610 --> 00:08:43.610 The burdens of their souls and their sins, and the burdens of those who have gone astray and turned away from the path of God, along with their burdens 00:08:43.610 --> 00:08:53.610 And on the Day of Resurrection, He will be asked about what they used to deny in this world by promising them falsehoods, so they invent lies about that. 00:09:14.220 --> 00:09:21.980 And do not be saddened, O Muhammad, by the harm you and your companions received from these polytheists 00:09:21.980 --> 00:09:29.980 Their affairs will be destroyed, and yours will rise, just as we did that to Noah 00:09:29.980 --> 00:09:37.980 When We sent him to his people, he remained among them a thousand years minus fifty years, calling them to monotheism 00:09:37.980 --> 00:09:46.980 This only increased their flight, and they were destroyed by the abundance of water, while they were unjust to themselves due to their disbelief 00:09:56.720 --> 00:10:05.389 So We saved Noah and the companions of his ark, and they were those whom he carried on his ark from among his children and their wives 00:10:06.389 --> 00:10:13.389 And We made the ship in which We saved him and his companions an example to the worlds and a proof against them 00:10:13.389 --> 00:10:27.870 And Abraham, when he said to his people, “Serve God and fear Him.” That is better for you, if you only knew 00:10:44.379 --> 00:10:52.379 That is better for you if you know what is good for you and what is evil for you 00:11:16.440 --> 00:11:25.019 O people, you only worship idols other than God and make lies 00:11:26.019 --> 00:11:31.019 Your idols that you worship cannot provide you with anything 00:11:32.049 --> 00:11:38.049 So seek God’s provision and submit to Him, and give thanks to Him for His provision for you 00:11:38.049 --> 00:11:45.049 You will be returned to God after your death, and He will ask you about what you are doing in terms of worshiping other than Him 00:11:45.049 --> 00:11:51.049 And you are His servants, and in His grace you turn, and in His provision you eat 00:12:09.820 --> 00:12:17.519 And if you deny, O people, our Messenger Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace 00:12:17.519 --> 00:12:24.519 In what He has called you to in terms of worshiping your Lord, groups before you have denied their Messenger 00:12:24.519 --> 00:12:31.549 Then God’s displeasure befell her, so your path is its path by denying Him 00:12:31.549 --> 00:12:36.549 Muhammad only has to convey his message to you about God 00:12:36.549 --> 00:12:43.549 A communication that makes clear to those who hear it what is meant by it and understands what is meant by it 00:12:43.549 --> 00:12:56.669 Have they not seen how God initiates creation and then repeats it? Indeed, that is easy for God 00:13:16.340 --> 00:13:34.980 Say, “Walk through the earth and see how creation began, then God will establish the hereafter. God has power over all things.” 00:13:35.980 --> 00:13:46.720 Say, O Muhammad, to those who deny the resurrection, “Walk through the earth and see how God began things and how He created them and created them.” 00:13:46.720 --> 00:13:56.720 Then God begins that beginning of the afterlife after annihilation. God is about to create all of His creation after their annihilation 00:13:56.720 --> 00:14:04.809 And other than that, whatever He wants to do, He is capable and is not unable to do anything He wants 00:14:04.809 --> 00:14:14.809 He punishes whomever He wills and has mercy on whomever He wills, and to Him you will turn 00:14:16.509 --> 00:14:31.509 Then God creates His creation after their annihilation, and He punishes whomever He wills among them for the crimes they committed previously during the days of His life, and He has mercy on whomever He wills among them, and to Him you will be returned and returned. 00:14:31.509 --> 00:14:47.960 You are not miraculous on earth or in heaven, and you have no guardian or helper besides God 00:14:47.960 --> 00:14:57.019 The people of the two earths in the two earths, nor the people of the heavens in the heavens, will not be unable to help Him if they disobey Him 00:14:57.019 --> 00:15:08.019 If someone said what it meant, “You are not miraculous on earth, nor are you miraculous if you were in heaven,” it would be a doctrine. 00:15:08.019 --> 00:15:19.179 O people, besides God, you have no guardian to take care of your affairs, nor any helper to help you from God, if His punishment is sweeter to you. 00:15:19.179 --> 00:15:38.230 And those who disbelieve in the signs of God and the meeting with Him - those despair of My mercy, and those will have a painful punishment 00:15:38.230 --> 00:15:53.100 And those who disbelieve in the arguments of God and deny the meeting with Him - those despaired of My mercy in the Hereafter when they saw the torment prepared for them, and for them is a painful torment. 00:15:53.100 --> 00:16:14.769 The answer of his people was only that they said, “They killed him or burned him.” Then God saved him from the Fire. Indeed, in that are signs for a people who believe. 00:16:14.769 --> 00:16:31.759 The response of Abraham's people to him was only that they said to each other, "Kill him or burn him with fire," and they did so. They wanted to burn him with fire, so they set him on fire and threw him into it. 00:16:31.759 --> 00:16:49.759 So God saved him from it and did not force it on him, but rather made it cool and peace upon him. Indeed, if We brought to Abraham from the Fire, there are proofs and proofs for a people who will believe the proofs and proofs when they examine and see. 00:16:49.759 --> 00:17:03.590 And he said, “You have only taken idols other than God as affection between yourselves in the life of this world.” 00:17:03.590 --> 00:17:23.589 Then on the Day of Resurrection, some of you will disbelieve in others, and some of you will curse others, and your abode will be the Fire, and you will have no helpers 00:17:23.589 --> 00:17:40.650 And Abraham said to his people, “O my people, you have only taken idols other than God as an affection between yourselves. You love each other to worship them, and you love each other to serve them, so you communicate over them.” 00:17:40.650 --> 00:18:01.700 Then on the Day of Resurrection, some of you will disavow one another, and some of you will curse one another, and all of you will be destined for Hell. And what do you have, O people who have taken gods, as helpers who will help you from God when the fire of Hell engulfs you? 00:18:01.700 --> 00:18:05.700 Conclusion from Al-Tabari’s interpretation
