1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,200 In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. 2 00:00:05,160 --> 00:00:08,039 A summary of the Tafsir of al-Tabari. 3 00:00:08,580 --> 00:00:12,740 Abridged by Dr. Aqil ibn Salim al-Shammari. 4 00:00:14,009 --> 00:00:15,890 Surah al-Nahl. 5 00:00:18,489 --> 00:00:22,609 In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. 6 00:00:23,620 --> 00:00:32,140 Indeed, He commands justice, excellence, and giving to relatives. 7 00:00:32,340 --> 00:00:35,299 And giving to relatives. 8 00:00:35,299 --> 00:00:40,659 “Lo! Allah enjoineth justice and kindness, and giving to kinsfolk, and forbiddeth lewdness and abomination and wickedness. He exhorteth you in order that ye may take heed.” (16:90) 9 00:00:41,020 --> 00:00:45,460 He admonishes you so that you may take heed. 10 00:00:47,079 --> 00:00:50,359 Indeed, Allah commands fairness in this Book. 11 00:00:50,960 --> 00:00:54,880 And excellence through patience in obeying Him during times of hardship and ease. 12 00:00:55,320 --> 00:00:57,079 Which is the fulfillment of His obligatory duties. 13 00:00:57,600 --> 00:00:59,759 And He commands giving to relatives. 14 00:01:00,119 --> 00:01:04,040 The right that Allah has made mandatory due to kinship and blood ties. 15 00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:06,000 And He forbids adultery. 16 00:01:06,519 --> 00:01:08,519 And transgression born of arrogance and injustice. 17 00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:11,640 Your Lord reminds you, O people. 18 00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:15,359 So that you may remember, turn back to His commands and prohibitions. 19 00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:17,680 And recognize the truth for those to whom it belongs. 20 00:01:19,459 --> 00:01:23,099 “Fulfil the covenant of Allah when ye have covenanted, and break not your oaths after the asseveration of them, and after ye have made Allah surety over you. Lo! Allah knoweth what ye do.” (16:91) 21 00:01:23,099 --> 00:01:27,819 “Fulfil the covenant of Allah when ye have covenanted, and break not your oaths after the asseveration of them, and after ye have made Allah surety over you. Lo! Allah knoweth what ye do.” (16:91) 22 00:01:28,260 --> 00:01:33,019 “Fulfil the covenant of Allah when ye have covenanted, and break not your oaths after the asseveration of them, and after ye have made Allah surety over you. Lo! Allah knoweth what ye do.” (16:91) 23 00:01:33,019 --> 00:01:37,340 “Fulfil the covenant of Allah when ye have covenanted, and break not your oaths after the asseveration of them, and after ye have made Allah surety over you. Lo! Allah knoweth what ye do.” (16:91) 24 00:01:37,819 --> 00:01:43,219 “Fulfil the covenant of Allah when ye have covenanted, and break not your oaths after the asseveration of them, and after ye have made Allah surety over you. Lo! Allah knoweth what ye do.” (16:91) 25 00:01:44,939 --> 00:01:47,980 And fulfill the covenant of Allah when you have made a pledge. 26 00:01:48,500 --> 00:01:51,500 Having thereby bound yourselves to a duty. 27 00:01:52,180 --> 00:01:53,579 And do not violate the command. 28 00:01:53,900 --> 00:01:56,939 After you have confirmed your oaths upon yourselves. 29 00:01:57,579 --> 00:02:00,780 Thus breaking your oaths and lying therein. 30 00:02:01,379 --> 00:02:05,299 While you have made Allah, by fulfilling what you have contracted. 31 00:02:05,299 --> 00:02:09,020 A witness over yourselves, watching over those among you who are faithful. 32 00:02:09,740 --> 00:02:11,460 Indeed, Allah, O people. 33 00:02:11,740 --> 00:02:13,900 Knows what you do regarding your covenants. 34 00:02:14,500 --> 00:02:17,300 Whether you fulfill them or break them. 35 00:02:17,860 --> 00:02:19,939 And other than that of your deeds. 36 00:02:20,580 --> 00:02:22,419 So fear Allah, lest you meet Him. 37 00:02:22,419 --> 00:02:25,340 While you have violated His commands and prohibitions therein. 38 00:02:27,250 --> 00:02:31,210 “And be not like unto her who unravelleth the thread, after she hath made it strong, to thin filaments, making your oaths a deceit between you because of a nation being more numerous than (another) nation. Allah only trieth you thereby, and He verily will explain to you on the Day of Resurrection that wherein ye differed.” (16:92) 39 00:02:31,210 --> 00:02:40,210 “And be not like unto her who unravelleth the thread, after she hath made it strong, to thin filaments, making your oaths a deceit between you because of a nation being more numerous than (another) nation. Allah only trieth you thereby, and He verily will explain to you on the Day of Resurrection that wherein ye differed.” (16:92) 40 00:02:40,210 --> 00:02:50,409 “And be not like unto her who unravelleth the thread, after she hath made it strong, to thin filaments, making your oaths a deceit between you because of a nation being more numerous than (another) nation. Allah only trieth you thereby, and He verily will explain to you on the Day of Resurrection that wherein ye differed.” (16:92) 41 00:02:50,409 --> 00:02:56,889 That one nation might be more numerous than another. 42 00:02:57,370 --> 00:03:01,490 “And be not like unto her who unravelleth the thread, after she hath made it strong, to thin filaments, making your oaths a deceit between you because of a nation being more numerous than (another) nation. Allah only trieth you thereby, and He verily will explain to you on the Day of Resurrection that wherein ye differed.” (16:92) 43 00:03:01,969 --> 00:03:11,330 “And be not like unto her who unravelleth the thread, after she hath made it strong, to thin filaments, making your oaths a deceit between you because of a nation being more numerous than (another) nation. Allah only trieth you thereby, and He verily will explain to you on the Day of Resurrection that wherein ye differed.” (16:92) 44 00:03:12,949 --> 00:03:17,750 And do not be, O people, in your breaking of your oaths after they have been confirmed. 45 00:03:18,229 --> 00:03:22,389 Like the woman who unravels her thread after it has been spun, breaking it into pieces. 46 00:03:22,949 --> 00:03:26,110 You make the oaths by which you swear. 47 00:03:26,110 --> 00:03:29,590 Claiming that you are fulfilling the covenant to those with whom you have contracted. 48 00:03:29,949 --> 00:03:33,030 A deception and a ruse, so that they may trust you. 49 00:03:33,469 --> 00:03:35,629 While you are harboring treachery toward them. 50 00:03:35,789 --> 00:03:37,669 And the abandonment of fulfilling the covenant. 51 00:03:38,270 --> 00:03:41,469 Because others are more numerous than them. 52 00:03:42,110 --> 00:03:45,430 Allah is only testing you by His command to you. 53 00:03:45,469 --> 00:03:48,389 To fulfill the covenant of Allah when you have made a pledge. 54 00:03:48,949 --> 00:03:53,789 So that the obedient among you may be distinguished from the disobedient who violates His command and prohibition. 55 00:03:54,620 --> 00:03:59,979 And your Lord will surely make clear to you, O people, on the Day of Resurrection when you arrive before Him. 56 00:04:00,500 --> 00:04:04,699 By rewarding each group among you for their deeds in this world. 57 00:04:05,180 --> 00:04:07,340 The righteous among you for their righteousness. 58 00:04:07,699 --> 00:04:09,539 And the evildoer for their evil. 59 00:04:10,219 --> 00:04:13,419 And that over which you used to differ in the world. 60 00:04:14,139 --> 00:04:18,620 For the believer used to acknowledge the oneness of Allah and the prophethood of His Prophet. 61 00:04:19,259 --> 00:04:22,220 And the disbeliever used to deny all of that. 62 00:04:22,699 --> 00:04:25,699 That is why they differed in the world. 63 00:04:44,339 --> 00:04:47,500 And had your Lord willed, O people. 64 00:04:47,740 --> 00:04:50,339 He would have been gentle with you through guidance from Him. 65 00:04:50,740 --> 00:04:56,860 And you would have all become one community, neither differing nor splitting. 66 00:04:57,459 --> 00:04:59,699 But He caused you to differ. 67 00:05:00,019 --> 00:05:02,339 And made you into various religious communities. 68 00:05:02,819 --> 00:05:06,819 By granting success to these to believe in Him and live. 69 00:05:07,180 --> 00:05:10,819 And despite that, you must be of various religious communities. 70 00:05:11,779 --> 00:05:16,100 By granting success to these to believe in Him and act in obedience to Him. 71 00:05:16,500 --> 00:05:19,779 And He abandoned those, depriving them of His success. 72 00:05:20,410 --> 00:05:23,689 And Allah will surely ask you all on the Day of Resurrection. 73 00:05:23,689 --> 00:05:26,250 About what you used to do in the world. 74 00:05:26,250 --> 00:05:28,410 Regarding what He commanded you and forbade you. 75 00:05:28,889 --> 00:05:31,610 Then He will surely reward you with a recompense. 76 00:05:32,009 --> 00:05:34,250 The obedient among you for their obedience. 77 00:05:34,490 --> 00:05:36,810 And the disobedient to Him for their disobedience. 78 00:05:41,910 --> 00:05:44,550 So you will not learn among yourselves. 79 00:05:44,550 --> 00:05:49,509 “Make not your oaths a deceit between you, lest a foot should slip after being firmly planted and ye should taste evil forasmuch as ye debarred (men) from the way of Allah, and yours should be an awful doom.” (16:94) 80 00:05:50,389 --> 00:05:53,509 “Make not your oaths a deceit between you, lest a foot should slip after being firmly planted and ye should taste evil forasmuch as ye debarred (men) from the way of Allah, and yours should be an awful doom.” (16:94) 81 00:05:53,509 --> 00:05:58,629 And you will taste evil because you hindered. 82 00:05:58,629 --> 00:06:02,310 And you will taste evil because you hindered. 83 00:06:02,310 --> 00:06:05,029 From the path of Allah. 84 00:06:05,029 --> 00:06:08,569 And for you is a great punishment. 85 00:06:09,209 --> 00:06:11,610 And do not take your oaths among yourselves. 86 00:06:11,610 --> 00:06:14,410 Deceiving people with them. 87 00:06:14,410 --> 00:06:18,410 So that you perish after having been secure from destruction. 88 00:06:18,410 --> 00:06:23,129 This is a parable for everyone who is tested after being in a state of well-being. 89 00:06:23,129 --> 00:06:25,529 And you shall taste the punishment of Allah. 90 00:06:25,529 --> 00:06:29,129 With which He punishes those who disobey Him in the world. 91 00:06:29,129 --> 00:06:32,889 And that is some of what He punishes the disbelievers with. 92 00:06:32,889 --> 00:06:36,009 Because you tempted those who wanted to believe in Allah. 93 00:06:36,009 --> 00:06:38,170 And His Messenger, away from the faith. 94 00:06:38,170 --> 00:06:41,209 And for you is a great punishment in the Hereafter. 95 00:06:41,449 --> 00:06:43,610 And that is the Fire of Hell. 96 00:06:45,139 --> 00:06:50,819 “And purchase not a small gain at the price of Allah's covenant. Lo! that which Allah hath is better for you, if ye did but know.” (16:95) 97 00:06:50,819 --> 00:06:56,899 “And purchase not a small gain at the price of Allah's covenant. Lo! that which Allah hath is better for you, if ye did but know.” (16:95) 98 00:06:56,899 --> 00:07:01,939 If you only knew. 99 00:07:03,100 --> 00:07:06,379 And do not break your covenants, O people. 100 00:07:06,379 --> 00:07:11,399 Seeking by that breaking a small worldly gain. 101 00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:13,879 But fulfill the covenant of Allah. 102 00:07:13,879 --> 00:07:16,920 Allah will reward you for fulfilling it. 103 00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:21,000 For what is with Allah in terms of reward is better for you. 104 00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:24,759 If you only knew the superiority of what is between the two compensations. 105 00:07:24,759 --> 00:07:27,720 One of which is the small price. 106 00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:31,779 And the other is the abundant reward. 107 00:07:31,779 --> 00:07:35,300 What you have will perish. 108 00:07:35,300 --> 00:07:40,180 “That which ye have wasteth away, and that which Allah hath remaineth. And verily We shall pay those who are steadfast a recompense in proportion to the best of what they used to do.” (16:96) 109 00:07:40,180 --> 00:07:45,699 And We will surely reward those who were patient with their recompense. 110 00:07:45,699 --> 00:07:50,180 According to the best of what they used to do. 111 00:07:51,269 --> 00:07:53,509 What you have, O people. 112 00:07:53,509 --> 00:07:55,990 Of what you possess in this world. 113 00:07:55,990 --> 00:07:57,269 Even if it is much. 114 00:07:57,269 --> 00:07:59,509 Is fleeting and perishing. 115 00:07:59,509 --> 00:08:02,230 And what is with Allah for those who fulfilled their covenant. 116 00:08:02,230 --> 00:08:05,430 And obeyed Him of the good things is lasting. 117 00:08:05,430 --> 00:08:08,709 And Allah will surely reward those who were patient with their recompense. 118 00:08:08,790 --> 00:08:11,509 On the Day of Resurrection for their patience upon it. 119 00:08:11,509 --> 00:08:13,829 And their hastening toward His pleasure. 120 00:08:13,829 --> 00:08:15,750 According to the best of what they used to do. 121 00:08:15,750 --> 00:08:18,470 Of deeds, not the worst of them. 122 00:08:18,470 --> 00:08:21,189 And Allah will surely forgive them their evil deeds. 123 00:08:21,189 --> 00:08:23,689 By His grace. 124 00:08:23,689 --> 00:08:29,930 Whoever does righteousness, whether male or female. 125 00:08:29,930 --> 00:08:34,169 While he is a believer. 126 00:08:34,169 --> 00:08:39,690 We will surely grant him a good life. 127 00:08:39,690 --> 00:08:43,929 And We will surely reward them their recompense. 128 00:08:43,929 --> 00:08:49,100 According to the best of what they used to do. 129 00:08:49,100 --> 00:08:53,100 Whoever acts in obedience to Allah, whether male or female. 130 00:08:53,100 --> 00:08:55,740 And is a believer in the reward of Allah. 131 00:08:55,740 --> 00:09:00,139 We will surely grant him a good life through contentment. 132 00:09:00,139 --> 00:09:04,779 This is because whoever Allah makes content with the provision He has allotted him. 133 00:09:04,779 --> 00:09:07,179 Will not tire himself excessively for the world. 134 00:09:07,179 --> 00:09:10,059 And his life will not be troubled therein. 135 00:09:10,059 --> 00:09:15,659 And We will surely reward them their recompense according to the best of what they used to do in the Hereafter. 136 00:09:15,659 --> 00:09:24,740 “And when thou recitest the Qur'an, seek refuge in Allah from Satan the outcast.” (16:98) 137 00:09:24,740 --> 00:09:30,580 “Lo! he hath no power over those who believe and put trust in their Lord.” (16:99) 138 00:09:30,580 --> 00:09:34,500 And upon their Lord they rely. 139 00:09:34,500 --> 00:09:40,820 “His power is only over those who make a friend of him, and those who ascribe partners unto Him (Allah).” (16:100) 140 00:09:40,820 --> 00:09:43,779 Upon those who take Him as their ally. 141 00:09:43,779 --> 00:09:49,940 “His power is only over those who make a friend of him, and those who ascribe partners unto Him (Allah).” (16:100) 142 00:09:49,940 --> 00:09:54,809 And when you, O Muhammad, read the Qur'an. 143 00:09:54,809 --> 00:09:58,330 “And when thou recitest the Qur'an, seek refuge in Allah from Satan the outcast.” (16:98) 144 00:09:58,330 --> 00:10:04,379 Indeed, Satan has no authority over those who believe in Allah and His Messenger. 145 00:10:04,379 --> 00:10:09,980 And upon their Lord they rely in whatever befalls them of their important affairs. 146 00:10:10,299 --> 00:10:13,820 His authority is only over those who worship him. 147 00:10:13,820 --> 00:10:18,649 And those who associate others with Allah. 148 00:10:18,649 --> 00:10:23,850 “And when We put a revelation in place of (another) revelation, - and Allah knoweth best what He revealeth - they say: Lo! thou art but inventing. Most of them know not.” (16:101) 149 00:10:23,850 --> 00:10:27,049 “And when We put a revelation in place of (another) revelation, - and Allah knoweth best what He revealeth - they say: Lo! thou art but inventing. Most of them know not.” (16:101) 150 00:10:27,049 --> 00:10:33,850 “And when We put a revelation in place of (another) revelation, - and Allah knoweth best what He revealeth - they say: Lo! thou art but inventing. Most of them know not.” (16:101) 151 00:10:33,850 --> 00:10:39,799 But most of them do not know. 152 00:10:39,879 --> 00:10:42,360 And when We abrogate the ruling of a verse. 153 00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:45,399 And replace it with another ruling in its place. 154 00:10:45,399 --> 00:10:52,120 And Allah is most knowing of what is best for His creation in what He replaces and changes of His rulings. 155 00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:54,039 The polytheists said. 156 00:10:54,039 --> 00:10:57,080 You are only a liar, O Muhammad. 157 00:10:57,080 --> 00:11:00,840 Fabricating lies against Allah. 158 00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:06,679 But most of these people do not know the reality of its truth. 159 00:11:06,759 --> 00:11:11,399 “Say: The holy Spirit hath delivered it from thy Lord with truth, that it may confirm (the faith of) those who believe, and as guidance and good tidings for those who have surrendered (to Allah).” (16:102) 160 00:11:11,399 --> 00:11:18,039 To strengthen those who believe. 161 00:11:18,039 --> 00:11:24,279 And as guidance and good tidings for the Muslims. 162 00:11:25,909 --> 00:11:28,309 Say, O Muhammad, to those who say to you. 163 00:11:28,309 --> 00:11:30,549 You are only a fabricator. 164 00:11:30,549 --> 00:11:34,309 It was brought by Gabriel from my Lord with the truth. 165 00:11:34,309 --> 00:11:36,629 Its abrogating and its abrogated parts. 166 00:11:36,710 --> 00:11:40,789 As a confirmation for the believers and a strengthening of their faith. 167 00:11:40,789 --> 00:11:43,269 And as guidance for them away from misguidance. 168 00:11:43,269 --> 00:11:47,350 And good tidings for the Muslims who have submitted to the command of Allah. 169 00:11:47,350 --> 00:11:51,179 And yielded to His command and prohibition. 170 00:11:51,179 --> 00:11:59,419 “And We know well that they say: Only a man teacheth him. The speech of him at whom they falsely hint is outlandish, and this is clear Arabic speech.” (16:103) 171 00:11:59,419 --> 00:12:04,379 “And We know well that they say: Only a man teacheth him. The speech of him at whom they falsely hint is outlandish, and this is clear Arabic speech.” (16:103) 172 00:12:04,379 --> 00:12:09,659 “And We know well that they say: Only a man teacheth him. The speech of him at whom they falsely hint is outlandish, and this is clear Arabic speech.” (16:103) 173 00:12:10,919 --> 00:12:15,080 And We certainly know that these polytheists say. 174 00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:18,840 Muhammad is only taught this which he recites. 175 00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:21,080 By a human being from the children of Adam. 176 00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:23,659 “And lo! there is a party of them who distort the Scripture with their tongues, that ye may think that what they say is from the Scripture, when it is not from the Scripture. And they say: It is from Allah, when it is not from Allah; and they speak a lie concerning Allah knowingly.” (3:78) 177 00:12:23,659 --> 00:12:29,899 Indeed, the tongue of the one you point to as teaching Muhammad is foreign. 178 00:12:29,899 --> 00:12:32,779 And that is because, as mentioned. 179 00:12:32,779 --> 00:12:39,179 They used to claim that the one who teaches Muhammad this Qur'an is a Roman slave. 180 00:12:39,179 --> 00:12:44,470 And this Qur'an is in a clear Arabic tongue. 181 00:12:44,470 --> 00:12:53,029 “Lo! those who disbelieve the revelations of Allah, Allah guideth them not and theirs will be a painful doom.” (16:104) 182 00:12:53,029 --> 00:13:00,149 “Lo! those who disbelieve the revelations of Allah, Allah guideth them not and theirs will be a painful doom.” (16:104) 183 00:13:00,230 --> 00:13:04,309 Indeed, those who do not believe in the proofs and evidences of Allah. 184 00:13:04,309 --> 00:13:07,750 Allah does not grant them success in attaining the truth. 185 00:13:07,750 --> 00:13:11,350 Nor does He guide them to the path of righteousness in the world. 186 00:13:11,350 --> 00:13:16,500 And for them in the Hereafter is a painful, agonizing punishment. 187 00:13:16,500 --> 00:13:25,139 “Only they invent falsehood who believe not Allah's revelations, and (only) they are the liars.” (16:105) 188 00:13:25,139 --> 00:13:32,570 And those are the liars. 189 00:13:32,570 --> 00:13:38,570 Only those who do not believe in the proofs and signs of Allah fabricate lies. 190 00:13:38,570 --> 00:13:43,210 Because they do not hope for a reward nor fear a punishment. 191 00:13:43,210 --> 00:13:50,539 And those who do not believe in the verses of Allah are the ones who lie against the believers. 192 00:13:50,620 --> 00:13:55,899 “Whoso disbelieveth in Allah after his belief - save him who is forced thereto and whose heart is still content with the Faith - but whoso findeth ease in disbelief: On them is wrath from Allah. Theirs will be an awful doom.” (16:106) 193 00:13:55,899 --> 00:14:09,740 “Whoso disbelieveth in Allah after his belief - save him who is forced thereto and whose heart is still content with the Faith - but whoso findeth ease in disbelief: On them is wrath from Allah. Theirs will be an awful doom.” (16:106) 194 00:14:09,740 --> 00:14:21,100 “Whoso disbelieveth in Allah after his belief - save him who is forced thereto and whose heart is still content with the Faith - but whoso findeth ease in disbelief: On them is wrath from Allah. Theirs will be an awful doom.” (16:106) 195 00:14:21,100 --> 00:14:29,179 “Whoso disbelieveth in Allah after his belief - save him who is forced thereto and whose heart is still content with the Faith - but whoso findeth ease in disbelief: On them is wrath from Allah. Theirs will be an awful doom.” (16:106) 196 00:14:29,179 --> 00:14:33,580 And for them is a great punishment. 197 00:14:33,580 --> 00:14:38,940 That is because they loved the life of this world. 198 00:14:38,940 --> 00:14:45,340 Over the Hereafter. 199 00:14:45,340 --> 00:14:51,340 “That is because they have chosen the life of the world rather than the Hereafter, and because Allah guideth not the disbelieving folk.” (16:107) 200 00:14:51,340 --> 00:14:55,620 “Whoso disbelieveth in Allah after his belief - save him who is forced thereto and whose heart is still content with the Faith - but whoso findeth ease in disbelief: On them is wrath from Allah. Theirs will be an awful doom.” (16:106) 201 00:14:55,620 --> 00:14:58,179 Except for one who is forced to disbelieve. 202 00:14:58,179 --> 00:15:01,220 And utters the word of disbelief with his tongue. 203 00:15:01,220 --> 00:15:04,179 While his heart is firm in faith. 204 00:15:04,179 --> 00:15:06,179 Certain of its reality. 205 00:15:06,179 --> 00:15:08,759 His resolve is sound upon it. 206 00:15:08,759 --> 00:15:11,639 “Whoso disbelieveth in Allah after his belief - save him who is forced thereto and whose heart is still content with the Faith - but whoso findeth ease in disbelief: On them is wrath from Allah. Theirs will be an awful doom.” (16:106) 207 00:15:11,639 --> 00:15:14,840 So he chose it and preferred it over faith. 208 00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:17,320 Then upon them is the wrath of Allah. 209 00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:20,440 And a great punishment is due for them. 210 00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:23,960 Because they chose the adornment of the life of this world. 211 00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:26,120 Over the bliss of the Hereafter. 212 00:15:26,120 --> 00:15:30,679 And because Allah does not grant success to a people who deny His verses. 213 00:15:30,679 --> 00:15:35,110 While they persist in denying them. 214 00:15:35,110 --> 00:15:41,029 Those are the ones upon whose hearts Allah has set a seal. 215 00:15:41,029 --> 00:15:44,149 And their hearing and their vision. 216 00:15:44,149 --> 00:15:50,070 And those are the heedless. 217 00:15:50,070 --> 00:15:58,730 “Assuredly in the Hereafter they are the losers.” (16:109) 218 00:15:58,730 --> 00:16:00,889 These polytheists. 219 00:16:00,889 --> 00:16:04,649 Are the people upon whose hearts Allah has set a seal. 220 00:16:04,730 --> 00:16:07,210 So He has stamped them with His seal. 221 00:16:07,210 --> 00:16:10,169 So they do not believe and are not guided. 222 00:16:10,169 --> 00:16:15,289 And He has deafened their hearing so they do not hear the caller of Allah to guidance. 223 00:16:15,289 --> 00:16:19,610 And He has blinded their vision so they do not see with them the proofs of Allah. 224 00:16:19,610 --> 00:16:22,519 A vision of one who considers and takes heed. 225 00:16:22,519 --> 00:16:28,039 And these are the ones who are neglectful of what Allah has prepared for their likes among the people of disbelief. 226 00:16:28,039 --> 00:16:30,440 And of what is intended for them. 227 00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:34,279 There is no doubt that in the Hereafter they are the losers. 228 00:16:34,279 --> 00:16:39,559 Who have cheated themselves out of their shares of the honor of Allah the Exalted. 229 00:16:39,559 --> 00:16:51,639 “Then lo! thy Lord - for those who became fugitives after they had been persecuted, and then fought and were steadfast - lo! thy Lord afterward is (for them) indeed Forgiving, Merciful.” (16:110) 230 00:16:51,639 --> 00:17:01,799 “Then lo! thy Lord - for those who became fugitives after they had been persecuted, and then fought and were steadfast - lo! thy Lord afterward is (for them) indeed Forgiving, Merciful.” (16:110) 231 00:17:02,980 --> 00:17:09,779 Then indeed, your Lord, O Muhammad, for those who emigrated from their homes to the homes of the people of Islam. 232 00:17:09,779 --> 00:17:12,900 After the polytheists had persecuted them. 233 00:17:12,900 --> 00:17:17,460 Then they fought the polytheists after that with their hands by the sword. 234 00:17:17,460 --> 00:17:20,579 And with their tongues by disavowing them. 235 00:17:20,579 --> 00:17:23,059 And were patient in their struggle. 236 00:17:23,059 --> 00:17:29,299 Indeed, your Lord, after this deed of theirs, is forgiving of what they had done. 237 00:17:29,299 --> 00:17:34,819 Merciful to them, that He would punish them while they have turned back to Allah and repented.
