Lo! that is an astounding thing.” (38:5) 10 00:00:42,479 --> 00:00:47,759 “Maketh he the gods One Allah? Lo! that is an astounding thing.” (38:5) 11 00:00:47,759 --> 00:00:54,399 And the eminent among them departed, saying, "Walk away and be steadfast to your gods." 12 00:00:54,399 --> 00:01:00,320 “The chiefs among them go about, exhorting: Go and be staunch to your gods! Lo! this is a thing designed.” (38:6) 13 00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:08,000 “We have not heard of this in later religion. This is naught but an invention.” (38:7) 14 00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:12,719 “Hath the reminder been unto him (alone) among us? Nay, but they are in doubt concerning My reminder; nay but they have not yet tasted My doom.” (38:8) 15 00:01:12,719 --> 00:01:17,040 “Hath the reminder been unto him (alone) among us? Nay, but they are in doubt concerning My reminder; nay but they have not yet tasted My doom.” (38:8) 16 00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:21,920 “Hath the reminder been unto him (alone) among us?

Then let them ascend by ropes!” (38:10) 19 00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:40,000 Then let them ascend through the ways of the heavens! 20 00:01:40,079 --> 00:01:47,359 They are but a defeated army from the confederates over there. 21 00:01:47,359 --> 00:01:56,159 “The folk of Noah before them denied (their messenger) and (so did the tribe of) A'ad, and Pharaoh firmly planted,” (38:12) 22 00:01:56,159 --> 00:02:01,439 “And (the tribe of) Thamud, and the folk of Lot, and the dwellers in the wood: these were the factions.” (38:13) 23 00:02:01,439 --> 00:02:05,439 Those are the confederates. 24 00:02:05,439 --> 00:02:11,710 Not one of them but denied the messengers, so My punishment was justly realized. 25 00:02:11,710 --> 00:02:21,870 “These wait for but one Shout, there will be no second thereto.” (38:15) 26 00:02:21,870 --> 00:02:28,189 “They say: Our Lord! Hasten on for us our fate before the Day of Reckoning.” (38:16) 27 00:02:28,349 --> 00:02:38,189 “Bear with what they say, and remember Our bondman David, lord of might, Lo! he was ever turning in repentance (toward Allah).” (38:17) 28 00:02:38,189 --> 00:02:46,370 “Lo! We subdued the hills to hymn the praises (of their Lord) with him at nightfall and sunrise,” (38:18) 29 00:02:46,370 --> 00:02:52,050 “And the birds assembled; all were turning unto Him.” (38:19) 30 00:02:52,050 --> 00:02:58,449 “We made his kingdom strong and gave him wisdom and decisive speech.” (38:20) 31 00:02:58,449 --> 00:03:04,129 “And hath the story of the litigants come unto thee? How they climbed the wall into the royal chamber;” (38:21) 32 00:03:04,129 --> 00:03:08,530 “How they burst in upon David, and he was afraid of them. They said: Be not afraid! (We are) two litigants, one of whom hath wronged the other, therefor judge aright between us; be not unjust; and show us the fair way.” (38:22) 33 00:03:08,530 --> 00:03:10,689 They said, "Fear not." 34 00:03:10,689 --> 00:03:17,569 “How they burst in upon David, and he was afraid of them.
