WEBVTT 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.200 In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful 00:00:05.139 --> 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 00:00:14.000 --> 00:00:16.519 Surat Al-Ankabut 00:00:18.739 --> 00:00:22.820 In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful 00:00:23.739 --> 00:00:31.739 And do not argue with the People of the Book except in a way that is best, except with those among them who are unjust 00:00:31.899 --> 00:00:49.340 And say, “We believe in what was revealed to us and revealed to you. Our God and your God are one, and to Him we submit.” 00:00:51.030 --> 00:00:56.549 And do not argue, O believers in God and His Messenger, the Jews and Christians 00:00:56.789 --> 00:00:59.030 Except for the beautiful words 00:00:59.390 --> 00:01:04.269 It is supplication to God through His signs and alertness to His arguments 00:01:04.709 --> 00:01:08.790 Except for those who refused to acknowledge paying tribute to you 00:01:09.109 --> 00:01:11.909 Otherwise, they set up a war against you 00:01:12.310 --> 00:01:17.590 So those fought with them with the sword until they either converted to Islam or paid tribute 00:01:18.109 --> 00:01:21.269 If the People of the Book tell you about their books 00:01:21.750 --> 00:01:27.950 They told you what they could be honest about and what they could be lying about 00:01:28.549 --> 00:01:35.750 So say, “We believe in what was revealed to us and what was revealed to you in the Torah and the Gospel.” 00:01:36.390 --> 00:01:38.790 Our deity and your deity are one 00:01:39.430 --> 00:01:45.069 We are submissive to Him and submit to obedience in what He commands and prohibits us 00:01:47.049 --> 00:01:52.090 And thus We have sent down to you the Book 00:01:52.569 --> 00:02:02.290 Those to whom We have given the Book believe in it, and among these are those who believe in it 00:02:02.730 --> 00:02:07.730 And none deny Our verses except the disbelievers 00:02:09.250 --> 00:02:13.330 Just as We sent down the Scriptures to those before you, O Muhammad, among the messengers 00:02:14.009 --> 00:02:16.849 Likewise, We have sent down to you this book 00:02:17.610 --> 00:02:23.050 Those to whom We gave the Scripture before you from the Children of Israel believe in it 00:02:23.610 --> 00:02:28.210 Among those who are with you today are those who believe in him 00:02:28.689 --> 00:02:34.050 Like Abdullah bin Salam and those of the Children of Israel who believed in His Messenger 00:02:34.889 --> 00:02:42.930 No one denies our evidence except the one who denies our monotheism and our divinity, knowing that he is stubborn towards us 00:02:45.069 --> 00:02:53.509 You had not recited any book before it, nor had you written in it with your right hand 00:02:53.509 --> 00:02:57.430 So let the invalids be suspicious 00:03:24.409 --> 00:03:40.560 Rather, they are clear signs in the breasts of those who have been given knowledge, and none deny Our signs except the wrongdoers 00:03:56.229 --> 00:04:19.000 And they said, “If only signs had been sent down to him from his Lord.” Say, “The signs are only with God, but I am a clear warner.” 00:04:28.610 --> 00:04:40.740 Just as the she-camel was made for Saleh and the table for Jesus, say, O Muhammad, the signs are only with God, and no one else is able to bring them. 00:04:40.740 --> 00:04:47.740 But I am a warner to you, warning you of the punishment of God, making clear His warning to you 00:04:58.660 --> 00:05:04.660 In that is a mercy and a reminder for a people who believe 00:05:06.620 --> 00:05:17.620 Is it not enough for these polytheists, O Muhammad, that We sent down this book to you to read to them? Indeed, in this book which We sent down to them 00:05:17.620 --> 00:05:25.329 It is a mercy for those who believe in it and a reminder for them to remember, including a lesson and a reminder 00:05:25.329 --> 00:05:43.329 Say, “God is sufficient as a witness between me and you, He knows what is in the heavens and the earth.” And those who believe in falsehood and increase in praise of God, those are the losers. 00:05:43.329 --> 00:06:05.319 Say, O Muhammad, to those who deny Our signs: God is sufficient, oh these, between me and you as a witness for me and for me, because He knows what is in the heavens and what is in the earth. And those who believe in polytheism and acknowledge it, those are the ones who were deceived in their deal 00:06:05.319 --> 00:06:26.060 They ask you to hasten the torment, and had it not been for a specified term, the torment would have come to them, and it would have come to them suddenly while they were not aware 00:06:26.060 --> 00:06:47.819 And these people urge you, O Muhammad, to hasten and say, “O God, if this is the truth from you, then rain down upon us stones from the sky, and had I not appointed for a term for them, then I would not destroy them until they fulfill it and reach it,” the torment would have come upon them quickly. 00:06:47.819 --> 00:06:54.819 And the torment will come upon them suddenly, and they will not realize the time of its coming before it comes 00:06:54.819 --> 00:07:06.550 They ask you to hasten the torment, and Hell will surround the disbelievers 00:07:06.550 --> 00:07:20.550 O Muhammad, these polytheists urge you to hasten the coming of the torment, and the fire is surrounding them, so nothing remains but for them to enter it, and it was said that that is the sea. 00:07:20.550 --> 00:07:36.800 On the Day when the torment will cover them from above them and from under their feet, and He will say, “Taste what you used to do.” 00:07:36.800 --> 00:07:52.410 On the Day when the disbelievers will be covered with torment above them and under their feet in Hell, and God will say to them, “Taste what you used to do in this world of disobedience to God and what displeases Him therein.” 00:07:52.410 --> 00:08:02.050 O My servants who have believed, my land is vast, so worship Me 00:08:02.050 --> 00:08:15.050 O My servants who have united Me and believed in Me and My Messenger, my land is vast and is not constricted for you, so stay in a place on it in which it is not permissible for you to reside. 00:08:15.050 --> 00:08:27.050 But if he acts in some place of it by disobeying God, and you are not able to change him, so flee from him, then to me, so be sincere in your worship and obedience. 00:08:27.050 --> 00:08:40.419 Every soul will taste death, then to Us you will be returned 00:08:40.419 --> 00:08:52.220 Every living soul will taste death, so they emigrated from the land of polytheism to the land of Islam, and then to us after death you will be returned 00:08:52.220 --> 00:09:10.220 And those who believe and do righteous deeds, We will surely give them from Paradise chambers beneath which rivers flow, to abide therein. What a blessing for those who work 00:09:10.220 --> 00:09:23.059 And those who believed in God and His Messenger in what he brought from God and did what God commanded them and obeyed Him in it and refrained from what He had forbidden them. 00:09:23.059 --> 00:09:37.059 We will certainly send them down from Paradise on a mountain beneath whose trees rivers flow, wherein they will abide without end. What a blessing for those who work in obedience to God are these chambers. 00:09:37.059 --> 00:09:56.009 Those who are patient with the harm of the polytheists in this world and to work in obedience to God and trust in their Lord for their livelihood and the struggle against their enemies. 00:09:56.009 --> 00:10:05.009 So do not give up on them, trusting that God exalts His Word and weakens the plots of the unbelievers 00:10:05.009 --> 00:10:23.970 And there is an animal that does not carry its own sustenance that does not carry its own sustenance. May God provide for it and you, and He is the All-Hearing, the All-Knowing. 00:10:23.970 --> 00:10:43.990 Migrate and strive, O believers, and do not fear hardship or poverty. How many animals are in need of food, food and drink that do not carry their food and carry it from one day to the next due to their inability to do so. 00:10:43.990 --> 00:10:59.990 May God bless you and you day by day, and He is the Hearer of your words. We fear our separation from our homelands and family, the Knower of what is in your souls and what will happen to you and your enemy’s affairs. 00:10:59.990 --> 00:11:19.860 And if you ask them who created the heavens and the earth and subjected the sun and the moon and subjected the sun and the moon, they would say, “God,” then they will be misled. 00:11:19.860 --> 00:11:36.940 And if you ask, O Muhammad, these polytheists of God, who created the heavens and the earth, created them, and subjected the sun and the moon to His servants, running constantly for the interests of God’s creation, He would say: 00:11:36.940 --> 00:11:46.940 Who created that and did it, God, then they turn away from the one who made that and turn away from sincerity in worshiping Him 00:11:46.940 --> 00:12:01.679 God extends sustenance to whomever He pleases among His servants and decrees for him. Indeed, God is All-Knowing of all things 00:12:03.639 --> 00:12:33.210 God expands His provision for whomever He wills from among His creation, and He narrows and decrees for whomever He wills among them. Your livelihood and its division among you, people, are in my hand and not of anyone except me. God is All-Knowing of your interests. And whoever is not fit for him except abundance of sustenance, and whoever is not fit for him except being scrupulous in it, and He knows that. 00:12:33.210 --> 00:12:57.210 And if you asked them, “Who sent down water from the sky and revived the earth with it after its death?” they would surely say, “God.” Say, “Praise be to God.” Rather, most of them do not give up. 00:12:57.210 --> 00:13:23.100 And if you ask, O Muhammad, those polytheists of God from among your people, who sent down rain from the sky and revived the earth with it by causing vegetation to grow therein after its barrenness and drought, they would say, “Who did that is God, to whom is the worship of all things,” and if they say that, say, “Praise be to God.” 00:13:23.100 --> 00:13:39.100 Rather, most of these polytheists do not understand what is beneficial for them and what is harmful for them. Because of their ignorance, they think that by worshiping the gods they will gain closeness and closeness to God. 00:13:39.100 --> 00:13:57.029 This worldly life is nothing but for him and play, but the Hereafter is the animal, if they only knew 00:13:57.029 --> 00:14:11.700 This worldly life that these polytheists enjoy is nothing but a game for the souls with what they enjoy, and then it has no permanence or permanence. 00:14:11.700 --> 00:14:31.830 And the Hereafter contains eternal life that has no end, no interruption, and no death. If these polytheists knew that this was so, they would have failed in their disbelief in God, but they do not know that. 00:14:31.830 --> 00:14:46.759 When they boarded the ark, they called upon God, making religion sincere to Him, but when He delivered them to land, behold, they were associating others 00:14:48.559 --> 00:15:02.559 If these polytheists boarded a ship in the sea and were afraid of drowning, they would devote their monotheism to God during the hardship that befell them, and would devote their obedience to Him alone, and would not seek help from their gods. 00:15:03.559 --> 00:15:16.559 When He saved them from what they were in and they came to righteousness, they made God a partner in their worship and called the gods and idols as lords with Him. 00:15:18.330 --> 00:15:27.330 That they should disbelieve in what We have given them, and that they should enjoy themselves - they will know 00:15:29.159 --> 00:15:41.159 To deny the blessings of God that He bestowed upon them in their souls and their wealth, and in order to enjoy themselves, they will know what punishment they will encounter from God because of their disbelief in Him. 00:15:41.159 --> 00:15:57.179 Have they not seen that We have made a secure sanctuary, and the people around them are seized by falsehood? They believe, but by the grace of God they disbelieve. 00:16:12.889 --> 00:16:19.889 It is safe for those who live in it and the people around them are plundered, killing and captivating them 00:16:20.889 --> 00:16:32.889 Shall I give you good news of God? They acknowledge the divinity of idols by believing, and of the grace God bestowed upon them by making their country a safe sanctuary, and they deny it. 00:16:32.889 --> 00:16:48.750 And who is more unjust than he who invents a lie against God or denies the truth when it came to him? Is there not a resting place in Hell for the unbelievers? 00:16:49.750 --> 00:17:02.389 And who is more unjust, O people, than he who fabricates a lie against God and says, “When they commit an immoral act, we find our fathers doing it, and God commanded us to do it.” 00:17:03.389 --> 00:17:15.390 Or he denied what God sent His Messenger Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace, regarding his monotheism and disavowal of the gods. Is there not in Hell a resting place and abode for those who disbelieve in God? 00:17:16.390 --> 00:17:31.259 And those who strive for Us, We will surely guide them to Our ways. Indeed, God is with the doers of good 00:17:31.259 --> 00:17:48.799 And those who fought those who slandered God falsely, seeking, by fighting them, the supremacy of our word, that We might guide them to follow the straight path. Indeed, God has bestowed upon those who are best among His creation.
