In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

00:00:03.299 --> 00:00:08.230
A summary of the Tafsir of al-Tabari.

00:00:08.230 --> 00:00:12.820
Abridged by Dr. 'Aqil ibn Salim al-Shammar.

00:00:12.820 --> 00:00:16.440
Surah al-Kawthar.

00:00:16.440 --> 00:00:23.809
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

00:00:23.809 --> 00:00:27.920
Indeed, We have granted you, [O Muhammad], al-Kawthar.

00:00:27.920 --> 00:00:30.920
So pray to your Lord and sacrifice [to Him alone].

00:00:30.920 --> 00:00:36.030
“Lo! it is thy insulter (and not thou) who is without posterity.” (108:3)

00:00:36.030 --> 00:00:39.530
We have granted you, O Muhammad, al-Kawthar.

00:00:39.530 --> 00:00:45.530
It is the name of the river that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, has been given in Paradise.

00:00:45.530 --> 00:00:49.750
Allah described it with abundance due to its immense significance.

00:00:49.750 --> 00:00:56.250
Therefore, dedicate all your prayer to your Lord, sincerely, excluding anything else, such as rivals or false deities.

00:00:56.250 --> 00:00:58.250
Likewise, perform your sacrifice.

00:00:58.250 --> 00:01:00.750
Dedicate it to Him alone, not to idols.

00:01:00.750 --> 00:01:07.250
[Do this] in gratitude to Him for the honor and goodness He has bestowed upon you, which has no equal and which He has singled you out to receive.

00:01:07.250 --> 00:01:10.250
Among these is His granting you al-Kawthar.

00:01:10.250 --> 00:01:15.319
Indeed, the one who hates you, O Muhammad, and your enemy, is the one who is truly diminished and disgraced.

00:01:15.319 --> 00:01:21.040
He is the one whose lineage is severed and who has no legacy.

00:01:21.040 --> 00:01:24.040
