In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
Conclusion from Al-Tabari’s interpretation
It was summarized by Dr. Aqeel bin Salem Al-Shammari
Surat Al-Saff
In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
Whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on earth glorifies God, and He is the Mighty, the Wise
Glory be to God whatever is in the seven heavens and whatever is on the earth of creation
Submitting to Him with divinity and divinity
And He is mighty in His vengeance against those who disobeyed Him and disbelieved in Him and disobeyed His command
He is wise in his management of them
O you who have believed, why do you say what you do not do?
It is very abhorrent to God that you say what you do not do
O you who have believed God and His Messenger
Why do you say what you do not believe in action?
Your actions contradict your words
Greatly abhorrent to your Lord is your saying what you do not do
And those who said about it meant us
If we knew the most beloved deeds to God, we would do them
Then they failed to act after they found out
God loves those who fight in battle for Him
Straight as if they were a solid structure
It is God, people
He loves those who fight in his path and his religion, which he called for in alignment
It is as if they are lined up with walls built
It has been arranged, made sound and perfect
Nothing leaves him
Some of them were saying
Built with lead
And when Moses said to his people, O my people!
Why do you harm me when you know that I am the Messenger of God to you?
When they deviated, God made their hearts deviated
And God does not guide the rebellious people
And remember, O Muhammad
When Musa bin Imran said to his people:
O my people, why do you harm me when you know the truth?
I am the messenger of God to you
When they turned around and deliberately followed the path
God turned their hearts away from him
God does not grant success to the truth
People who chose disbelief over faith
And when Jesus, son of Mary, said, O Children of Israel
I am the Messenger of God to you, confirming it
Confirming what was before me of the Torah
And bringing good tidings of a Messenger to come after him, whose name will be Ahmed
When he came to them with clear evidence
They said this is clear magic
And remember also, O Muhammad
When Jesus bin Maryam said to his people:
From the children of Israel
O Children of Israel, I am the Messenger of God to you
Confirming what was before me of the Torah that was revealed to Moses
And I bring you good tidings of a Messenger who will come after him, whose name will be Ahmed
When Ahmad came to them with clear proofs
These are the indications that God gave him as evidence for his prophecy
They said this is an obvious magician
Who is more unjust than he who invents a lie against God?
He is called to Islam
And God does not guide the unjust people
Who is more unjust and more hostile than he who fabricates lies about God?
This is what they said to the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace
He is a magician and what he brought is magic
Likewise, he slandered God by lying when he was called to convert to Islam
He told lies about God and falsehood was slandered against him
God does not help the people who wronged themselves by disbelieving in Him to achieve the truth
They want to extinguish the light of God with their mouths
God will perfect his light
These people want Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace
This is an obvious magician
To invalidate the truth with which God sent Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace, in their mouths
God is the revealer of the truth and the manifestation of His religion is Islam
He supported Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him, against those who opposed him
Even if the disbelievers hate God
It is He who sent His Messenger with guidance and the religion of truth
To make it prevail over all religion, even if the polytheists hate it
God is the One who sent His Messenger Muhammad with guidance and an explanation of truth and Islam
To make His true religion with which He sent His Messenger appear over every other religion
This happened when Jesus, son of Mary, descended
When the religion becomes one
There is no religion other than Islam
O you who have believed, shall I guide you to a trade that will save you from a painful punishment?
You believe in God and His Messenger and strive in God’s cause with your wealth and your lives. That is better for you, if you only knew.
O you who have believed, shall I guide you to a trade that will save you from a painful torment?
You believe in God and His Messenger Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace, and you strive in God’s religion and His path that He has legislated for you with your money and your souls.
That is better for you than wasting it and being negligent, if you know the harms and benefits of things
He will forgive your sins and admit you into gardens beneath which rivers flow and good dwellings in gardens without that great victory
Your Lord will cover your sins for you if you do that, so He will pardon you and pardon you, and will admit you into gardens under which rivers flow.
He will also admit you to good dwellings in orchards of residence that cannot be deprived of that great salvation from the calamities and horrors of the Hereafter.
And others that you love are victory from God, an imminent conquest, and good news to the believers
And you have another quality other than that in this world that you love. Victory from God for you over your enemies and an imminent conquest that He will hasten for you. O Muhammad, give glad tidings to the believers that God will grant them victory over their enemy and an imminent conquest for them.
O you who have believed, be supporters of God, as Jesus, son of Mary, said to the disciples, “Who are my supporters of God?”
The disciples said, “We are supporters of God.” So a group of the Children of Israel believed and the group disbelieved, so those who believed supported their enemy and they became victorious.
O you who have believed God and His Messenger, be God’s supporters, as Jesus bin Maryam said to the disciples: “Who are my supporters from among you to God’s support for me?”
The disciples said, “We are God’s supporters of the truth with which He sent His prophets.” So a group of the Children of Israel believed in Jesus, and a group of them disbelieved in him.
So We strengthened those of the two groups of the Children of Israel who believed against their enemy, those of them who disbelieved in Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace.
For his belief in them that Jesus is the servant of God and His Messenger, and his denial of those who say he is a god and those who say he is the son of God
The group of believers became victorious over their enemy, the unbelievers
