WEBVTT 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.200 In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful 00:00:05.160 --> 00:00:08.039 Conclusion from Al-Tabari’s interpretation 00:00:08.580 --> 00:00:12.740 It was summarized by Dr. Aqeel bin Salem Al-Shammari 00:00:14.189 --> 00:00:16.469 Surah Al-A'raf 00:00:17.899 --> 00:00:22.739 In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful 00:00:23.379 --> 00:00:28.219 And We inspired Moses, “Throw down your staff.” 00:00:28.219 --> 00:00:33.060 Then she catches what they think 00:00:34.079 --> 00:00:37.560 And We inspired Moses, “Throw down your staff.” 00:00:37.560 --> 00:00:44.570 So he threw it, and it was feeding and swallowing the false and false magic they used 00:00:44.570 --> 00:00:50.899 Then the truth came and what they were doing was nullified 00:00:50.899 --> 00:00:52.420 Then the truth appeared 00:00:52.420 --> 00:00:56.579 It became clear to those who witnessed and attended him regarding the matter of Moses 00:00:56.579 --> 00:01:00.409 And God is a messenger calling for the truth 00:01:00.450 --> 00:01:06.650 The magic, lies, and illusions they used to do were invalidated 00:01:06.650 --> 00:01:12.569 So they defeated him and defeated him, humiliated 00:01:12.569 --> 00:01:17.900 The magicians were thrown prostrate 00:01:17.900 --> 00:01:21.780 Then Moses defeated Pharaoh and his crowds 00:01:21.780 --> 00:01:26.219 They left their homeland as a child, oppressed 00:01:26.219 --> 00:01:30.780 The magicians were cast out when they witnessed the great power of God 00:01:30.819 --> 00:01:36.019 Falling on their faces, prostrating to their Lord 00:01:36.019 --> 00:01:41.939 They said, “We believe in the Lord of the Worlds.” 00:01:41.939 --> 00:01:46.159 Lord of Moses and Aaron 00:01:46.159 --> 00:01:50.599 They said: We believe in what Moses brought us 00:01:50.599 --> 00:01:57.239 The one whom we must worship is the one who rules over the jinn, mankind, and all things 00:01:57.239 --> 00:01:59.599 And he manages it all 00:01:59.599 --> 00:02:01.719 Lord of Moses and Aaron 00:02:01.760 --> 00:02:03.939 No Pharaoh 00:02:03.939 --> 00:02:11.219 Pharaoh said, “You believed in him before I gave you permission.” 00:02:11.219 --> 00:02:17.219 This is an honorable person whom you despised in the city 00:02:17.219 --> 00:02:22.819 You plotted against him in the city to expel its people from it 00:02:22.819 --> 00:02:26.310 You will know 00:02:26.310 --> 00:02:28.629 Pharaoh said to the magicians 00:02:28.629 --> 00:02:32.189 You believed in Moses and acknowledged his prophecy 00:02:32.189 --> 00:02:35.270 Before I give you permission to believe in him 00:02:35.270 --> 00:02:38.389 Your belief and acknowledgment of his prophecy 00:02:38.389 --> 00:02:43.909 It is a trick you used to deceive those in our city to get them out of it 00:02:43.909 --> 00:02:46.830 You will know what I will do to you 00:02:46.830 --> 00:02:52.360 And what punishment you will receive from me for this action of yours 00:02:52.360 --> 00:02:59.400 I will cut off your hands and your feet on opposite sides 00:02:59.439 --> 00:03:08.060 Then I will crucify you all 00:03:08.060 --> 00:03:11.819 If they cut off your hands and feet on opposite sides 00:03:11.819 --> 00:03:16.699 This is when one of them cuts off his right hand and his left foot 00:03:16.699 --> 00:03:20.139 Or cut off his left hand and his right foot 00:03:20.139 --> 00:03:23.139 There is a disagreement between the two members regarding cutting 00:03:23.139 --> 00:03:27.159 Then I will crucify you all 00:03:27.199 --> 00:03:34.189 They said, “We are turning to our Lord.” 00:03:34.189 --> 00:03:41.280 You will not take revenge on us unless we believe 00:03:41.280 --> 00:03:49.759 Unless we believed in the signs of our Lord when they came to us 00:03:49.759 --> 00:04:00.060 He poured out patience on us and we died as Muslims 00:04:00.060 --> 00:04:01.620 The witches said 00:04:01.620 --> 00:04:06.419 We turn to our Lord by returning to Him 00:04:06.419 --> 00:04:10.460 And what do you disapprove of us, O Pharaoh, and what do you find against us? 00:04:10.460 --> 00:04:17.819 Unless we believed in the arguments of our Lord, His signs, and His evidence when they came to us 00:04:17.860 --> 00:04:23.569 His arguments that neither you nor anyone but God can match 00:04:23.569 --> 00:04:27.970 Our Lord sent down upon us a prison that prevents us from disbelieving in you 00:04:27.970 --> 00:04:30.970 When Pharaoh tortured us 00:04:30.970 --> 00:04:35.170 And we brought you Islam 00:04:35.170 --> 00:04:38.649 The leaders of Pharaoh's people said 00:04:38.649 --> 00:04:45.769 Will you leave Moses and his people to spread corruption in the land and leave you and your gods? 00:04:45.769 --> 00:04:59.379 He said: We will kill their sons and spare their women, and we will be subjugated over them 00:04:59.379 --> 00:05:03.019 A group of men from Pharaoh's people said 00:05:03.019 --> 00:05:06.819 Will you leave Moses and his people among the children of Israel? 00:05:06.819 --> 00:05:11.620 So that they may corrupt your servants and servants against you in your land of Egypt 00:05:11.620 --> 00:05:15.660 And Moses allows you to serve you and worship your gods 00:05:15.660 --> 00:05:17.259 Pharaoh said 00:05:17.259 --> 00:05:21.939 We will kill their male children, children of the children of Israel 00:05:21.939 --> 00:05:24.139 We keep their females 00:05:24.139 --> 00:05:30.029 We are oppressive to them by oppressing the king and the sultan 00:05:30.029 --> 00:05:35.709 Moses said to his people: Seek help from God and be patient 00:05:35.709 --> 00:05:44.389 The earth belongs to God and He gives it as inheritance to whomever He wishes of His servants 00:05:44.389 --> 00:05:50.040 And the outcome is for the righteous 00:05:50.040 --> 00:05:53.680 Moses said to his people, the Children of Israel 00:05:53.680 --> 00:05:59.439 Seek help from God against Pharaoh and his people in your affairs 00:05:59.439 --> 00:06:05.920 And be patient with the hardship that befell you upon yourselves and your children from Pharaoh 00:06:05.920 --> 00:06:08.160 The earth belongs to God 00:06:08.160 --> 00:06:11.439 Perhaps God will give you the land of Pharaoh 00:06:11.439 --> 00:06:16.319 If you are patient with the calamity that has befallen you and seek reward for it 00:06:16.319 --> 00:06:18.879 And you agreed to pay 00:06:18.879 --> 00:06:23.160 God bequeaths His land to whomever He wishes of His servants 00:06:23.160 --> 00:06:27.439 The praiseworthy outcome is for those who fear God and observe Him 00:06:27.439 --> 00:06:31.290 So he feared him and performed his duties 00:06:31.290 --> 00:06:40.370 They said: We were harmed before you came to us and after you came to us 00:06:40.370 --> 00:06:45.610 He said: Perhaps your Lord will destroy your enemy 00:06:45.610 --> 00:06:50.250 And He will appoint you as your successor on earth 00:06:50.250 --> 00:06:56.689 And see how you work 00:06:56.689 --> 00:06:58.610 Moses' people said 00:06:58.610 --> 00:07:04.810 We were harmed by killing our children before God's message came to us 00:07:04.810 --> 00:07:08.329 And after you brought us the message of God 00:07:08.329 --> 00:07:10.410 Moses said to his people 00:07:10.410 --> 00:07:13.610 Perhaps your Lord will destroy your enemy 00:07:13.610 --> 00:07:17.970 And He will make you succeed them in their land after their destruction 00:07:17.970 --> 00:07:21.250 Then your Lord will see what you do after them 00:07:21.250 --> 00:07:26.949 Because of your haste in obeying Him and your laziness in obeying Him 00:07:26.949 --> 00:07:30.870 We took the family of Pharaoh for years 00:07:30.870 --> 00:07:38.420 And a decrease in the fruits, so that they may remember 00:07:38.459 --> 00:07:44.420 We tested the people of Pharaoh and his followers for their misguidance 00:07:44.420 --> 00:07:47.220 Baldoub year after year 00:07:47.220 --> 00:07:51.379 We tested them and their fruits disappeared except a few 00:07:51.379 --> 00:07:53.779 A sermon and a reminder to them 00:07:53.779 --> 00:07:56.139 To turn away from their error 00:07:56.139 --> 00:08:00.589 And they turn to their Lord in repentance 00:08:00.589 --> 00:08:04.470 If good comes to them 00:08:04.470 --> 00:08:07.110 They told us this 00:08:07.110 --> 00:08:15.790 And if an evil befalls them, they blame Moses and those with him 00:08:15.790 --> 00:08:21.750 Indeed, their bird is with God 00:08:21.750 --> 00:08:27.829 But most of them don't know 00:08:27.829 --> 00:08:31.589 If Pharaoh's family comes to health and fertility 00:08:31.589 --> 00:08:34.149 Prosperity and abundance of fruits 00:08:34.149 --> 00:08:36.899 They said we are more worthy of it 00:08:36.940 --> 00:08:40.419 Even if hardship, drought, and affliction afflict them 00:08:40.419 --> 00:08:42.980 They pessimize and say 00:08:42.980 --> 00:08:47.610 Our fortunes have disappeared since our arrival, Moses, peace be upon him 00:08:47.610 --> 00:08:50.970 Except for the birds of Pharaoh’s family and others 00:08:50.970 --> 00:08:54.090 This is their share of prosperity and fertility 00:08:54.090 --> 00:08:57.649 And other attributes of good and evil 00:08:57.649 --> 00:08:59.610 Except with God 00:08:59.610 --> 00:09:03.970 But most of them do not know that this is so 00:09:03.970 --> 00:09:10.490 Because of their ignorance of this, they were accusing Moses and those with him 00:09:10.490 --> 00:09:16.370 And they said, “No matter what sign you bring us, you will bewitch us with it.” 00:09:16.370 --> 00:09:20.779 We are not believers for you 00:09:20.779 --> 00:09:23.659 And Pharaoh's family said to Moses 00:09:23.659 --> 00:09:28.379 O Moses, whatever sign or indication you bring us 00:09:28.379 --> 00:09:32.740 To distract us from the religion of Pharaoh we are in 00:09:32.740 --> 00:09:35.659 We do not believe you in that 00:09:35.659 --> 00:09:40.919 However, you are right in what you are calling us to 00:09:40.919 --> 00:09:46.960 So We sent upon them the flood, locusts, and lice 00:09:46.960 --> 00:09:50.720 And the frogs are a stick of blood, signs 00:09:50.720 --> 00:09:55.320 Verses separated 00:09:55.320 --> 00:10:02.379 So they were arrogant and were a criminal people 00:10:02.379 --> 00:10:04.379 So We sent a command against them 00:10:04.379 --> 00:10:06.860 A flood swept over them 00:10:06.860 --> 00:10:10.019 It may be heavy rain 00:10:10.019 --> 00:10:13.299 It may be a horrific death 00:10:13.299 --> 00:10:16.620 And We sent locusts upon them upon the pastures 00:10:16.620 --> 00:10:19.220 And We sent lice upon them 00:10:19.220 --> 00:10:22.899 It was said that it is the weevils that emerge from wheat 00:10:22.899 --> 00:10:24.779 It was said that he is a bear 00:10:24.779 --> 00:10:28.419 They are young locusts that have no wings 00:10:28.419 --> 00:10:30.539 It was said that it was fleas 00:10:30.539 --> 00:10:34.250 It was said that they were small black animals 00:10:34.250 --> 00:10:39.850 And We sent upon them frogs to fall into their homes and their drinks 00:10:39.850 --> 00:10:42.250 And We sent blood upon them 00:10:42.250 --> 00:10:49.000 What they drew from rivers and wells or in their vessels they found was blood 00:10:49.000 --> 00:10:54.759 These verses are signs of the validity of the prophecy of Moses, peace be upon him 00:10:54.759 --> 00:10:56.679 He separated them 00:10:56.679 --> 00:10:59.759 So he made some of them follow each other 00:10:59.759 --> 00:11:06.320 So those to whom God sent these verses were arrogant about believing in God 00:11:06.320 --> 00:11:10.639 And the belief of His Messenger Moses, may God bless him and grant him peace 00:11:10.639 --> 00:11:15.840 They were a people who practiced sins and immorality that God hated 00:11:15.840 --> 00:11:19.279 They rebelled and rebelled 00:11:19.279 --> 00:11:23.639 And when the affliction befell them 00:11:23.639 --> 00:11:29.720 They said, “O Moses, pray for us to your Lord for what He has covenanted with you.” 00:11:29.720 --> 00:11:39.519 If you remove the defect from us, we will believe in you 00:11:39.519 --> 00:11:47.309 And we will send the children of Israel with you 00:11:47.309 --> 00:11:50.230 And when God’s punishment befell them 00:11:50.230 --> 00:11:55.029 They said, “O Moses, invoke your Lord for us according to what He has commanded and commanded you.” 00:11:55.029 --> 00:11:58.470 If you remove from us the torment we are in 00:11:58.470 --> 00:12:01.110 Let us believe what you have come with 00:12:01.110 --> 00:12:04.309 And let us leave the children of Israel with you 00:12:04.309 --> 00:12:09.250 We do not prevent them from going wherever they want 00:12:09.250 --> 00:12:20.919 When We removed from them the punishment for a term they had fulfilled, behold, they renounced it 00:12:20.919 --> 00:12:24.000 So Moses called upon his Lord and He answered him 00:12:24.000 --> 00:12:28.799 When God lifted the torment from them for a term, they had reached its limit 00:12:28.840 --> 00:12:36.519 To fulfill the torment of their days that God has appointed for them as a term of life until the time of their destruction 00:12:36.519 --> 00:12:41.480 So they break their covenants that they made with their Lord and Moses 00:12:41.480 --> 00:12:45.759 And they persist in their disbelief and misguidance 00:12:45.759 --> 00:12:58.480 So We searched for them and drowned them in the sea because they denied Our signs 00:12:58.720 --> 00:13:06.259 When they broke their covenants, we took revenge on them by taking our vengeance on them 00:13:06.259 --> 00:13:08.580 So we drowned them in the sea 00:13:08.580 --> 00:13:12.539 We did this to them by discrediting our arguments 00:13:12.539 --> 00:13:18.980 They were unaware of the vengeance that We visited upon them before it came upon them 00:13:18.980 --> 00:13:27.899 And We gave inheritance to the people who were weak and negligent in the east of the earth 00:13:27.940 --> 00:13:36.139 And the good word of your Lord spread upon the children of Israel because they were patient 00:13:36.139 --> 00:13:45.419 And We destroyed what Pharaoh and his people were doing and what they used to throne 00:13:45.419 --> 00:13:53.509 And We gave inheritance to the people whom Pharaoh and his people treated as weak among the Children of Israel 00:13:53.590 --> 00:14:01.590 The easts of the earth, which is the Levant, and its wests, in which We have made goodness a permanent constant for its people 00:14:01.590 --> 00:14:08.070 God's promise to the children of Israel to empower them in the land was fulfilled 00:14:08.070 --> 00:14:10.950 And he gave them victory over their enemy 00:14:10.950 --> 00:14:17.029 And We destroyed the buildings and farms that Pharaoh and his people used to make 00:14:17.590 --> 00:14:20.950 And what buildings and palaces they built 00:14:20.950 --> 00:14:25.990 We took them out of all of that and destroyed all of that 00:14:48.519 --> 00:15:01.240 They said, “O Moses, He made for us a god just as they have gods.” He said, “You are ignorant people.” 00:15:01.240 --> 00:15:07.370 And We divided the children of Israel by the sea after the lessons they had seen 00:15:07.370 --> 00:15:10.330 These verses did not rebuke them 00:15:10.330 --> 00:15:16.730 So they passed by a people who were adopting an example to them that they worshiped instead of God 00:15:17.129 --> 00:15:26.809 They said, “O Moses, make for us an idol that we may take as a god, just as these people have idols that they worship.” 00:15:26.809 --> 00:15:36.889 Moses, may God’s prayers be upon him, said, “O people, you are a people who are ignorant of the greatness of God and the obligation of His rights upon you.” 00:15:49.539 --> 00:15:58.250 Moses told them that they are devoted to these idols 00:15:58.250 --> 00:16:02.490 God will destroy the work they are engaged in and its corruption 00:16:02.490 --> 00:16:07.049 What they were doing in worshiping her was invalid 00:16:07.049 --> 00:16:11.129 Because it will not benefit them when God's command comes 00:16:11.129 --> 00:16:15.450 And there is no defender for them, may God protect them if He descends upon them 00:16:16.409 --> 00:16:26.389 He said: Is there a god other than God that I seek of you? And He is your superiority over the worlds 00:16:26.389 --> 00:16:35.289 Moses said to his people, “I adore God and make you a god and make for you an idol to worship.” 00:16:35.289 --> 00:16:42.330 By God, He is your Creator and Your Excellency over the world of your time and age 00:16:43.590 --> 00:16:55.750 And when We delivered you from the people of Pharaoh, who were inflicting on you a terrible torment 00:16:55.750 --> 00:17:08.230 They kill your sons and spare your women 00:17:08.230 --> 00:17:17.190 And in that is a great trial from your Lord 00:17:17.190 --> 00:17:21.529 And remember when We delivered you from the people of Pharaoh 00:17:21.529 --> 00:17:25.289 As they bear upon you the most hideous and evil torment 00:17:25.289 --> 00:17:30.250 They kill your male children and spare your females 00:17:30.250 --> 00:17:38.220 And in your severe torment, there is a test from God for you and a great blessing 00:17:38.220 --> 00:17:41.980 Conclusion from Al-Tabari’s interpretation
