WEBVTT 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:02.580 In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful 00:00:02.580 --> 00:00:37.479 Nice comment on the book of cards identifying the surahs of the Holy Qur’an 00:00:37.479 --> 00:00:43.520 By Dr. Muhammad bin Abdul Aziz bin Omar Nassif, may God protect him 00:00:43.520 --> 00:00:46.399 Surat Al-Ma'idah 00:00:46.399 --> 00:00:50.899 In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Praise be to God, and prayers and peace be upon the Messenger of God 00:00:51.380 --> 00:00:55.500 With a new clip of nice commentary on ID cards 00:00:55.500 --> 00:01:01.880 The surah today is the table sura, and it is recited by three pauses 00:01:01.880 --> 00:01:10.079 The truth is that these pauses today will not be related to what was written in afforestation 00:01:10.079 --> 00:01:18.180 Rather, they are illumination in the reading of this Surah, which helps, along with the encouragement of contemplation and sufficiency in it, God willing 00:01:18.780 --> 00:01:25.060 The first pause is with the first quarter of Hizb in the surah 00:01:25.060 --> 00:01:30.799 From the beginning of the surah to the end of the eleventh verse 00:01:30.799 --> 00:01:40.099 We notice that the word “and fear God” was repeated frequently in these two pages 00:01:40.099 --> 00:01:46.689 In the second verse, “And fear God. Indeed, God is powerful in His power.” 00:01:46.769 --> 00:01:52.569 And in the fourth verse, “Fear God. Indeed, God is quick to judge.” 00:01:52.569 --> 00:01:59.099 And in the seventh verse, “And fear God. Indeed, God is All-Knowing of what is in the breasts.” 00:01:59.099 --> 00:02:05.099 And in the eighth verse, “And fear God. Indeed, God is aware of what you do.” 00:02:05.099 --> 00:02:13.280 And in the eleventh verse: Fear God and in God let the believers put their trust 00:02:13.280 --> 00:02:21.479 We notice first that the Holy One, Glory be to Him, attaches the command to piety in a sentence 00:02:21.479 --> 00:02:30.620 This sentence is often a guide to something that helps one attain piety 00:02:30.620 --> 00:02:34.120 And fear God. God is severe in punishment 00:02:34.120 --> 00:02:38.120 Remember that God is severe in punishment and increases piety in the heart 00:02:38.120 --> 00:02:40.319 And fear God, for God is quick to judge 00:02:40.849 --> 00:02:43.849 And fear God. Indeed, God is All-Knowing of what is within the breasts 00:02:43.849 --> 00:02:48.849 Remembering His knowledge, Glory be to Him, increases piety, and so on 00:02:48.849 --> 00:02:52.849 Then another matter if you think about it 00:02:52.849 --> 00:02:58.349 If you had commanded one of the greats once, twice or three times 00:02:58.349 --> 00:03:02.349 If you are not ashamed of Him, you should at least fear Him 00:03:02.349 --> 00:03:05.330 You fear his tyranny and power over you 00:03:05.330 --> 00:03:09.830 So how is it that the Creator has commanded us to be pious? I do not say five times 00:03:09.830 --> 00:03:12.330 Rather, the Qur’an is full of this sentence 00:03:12.330 --> 00:03:17.330 Repeating it should not generate coldness in feeling 00:03:17.330 --> 00:03:22.830 Rather, you should remember every time that the Creator says to you 00:03:22.830 --> 00:03:24.330 Fear God 00:03:24.330 --> 00:03:26.330 That is, master 00:03:26.330 --> 00:03:29.830 But he says fear God to invoke this great name 00:03:29.830 --> 00:03:33.830 With the qualities of majesty and perfection 00:03:33.830 --> 00:03:37.919 Whatever you heard and fear God, hold yourself accountable 00:03:37.919 --> 00:03:41.419 Where are we in implementing this great matter? 00:03:41.419 --> 00:03:44.419 Which should occupy our time 00:03:44.419 --> 00:03:47.919 Think about how to check it 00:03:47.919 --> 00:03:49.919 And strive to do so practically 00:03:49.919 --> 00:03:52.419 By doing everything he is commanded to do 00:03:52.419 --> 00:03:54.520 And denounce everything that is forbidden 00:03:54.520 --> 00:03:57.520 Questioning, learning and applying 00:03:57.520 --> 00:03:59.520 As for the second stop 00:03:59.520 --> 00:04:03.020 It goes back to most of this Surah 00:04:03.020 --> 00:04:06.520 Many of its verses were revealed late 00:04:07.020 --> 00:04:09.520 We say that many of its verses were revealed late 00:04:09.520 --> 00:04:11.520 This is well known among scholars 00:04:11.520 --> 00:04:14.520 Although some verses were revealed early 00:04:14.520 --> 00:04:17.519 And with this we look at 00:04:17.519 --> 00:04:20.019 The rulings mentioned in the Surah 00:04:20.019 --> 00:04:25.519 We find it in matters that people may think are side effects 00:04:25.519 --> 00:04:29.519 The legal rulings on it are detailed in the Qur’an 00:04:29.519 --> 00:04:32.519 Proof that the Qur’an is comprehensive for life 00:04:32.519 --> 00:04:34.519 Notice, for example, what God Almighty says: 00:04:34.519 --> 00:04:38.519 O you who have believed, it is only wine and gambling 00:04:38.519 --> 00:04:40.519 And monuments and stones 00:04:40.519 --> 00:04:42.649 Wine is a drink 00:04:42.649 --> 00:04:46.649 There are many rulings on foods and drinks mentioned in the Surah 00:04:46.649 --> 00:04:50.709 Wine is a drink and gambling is a game 00:04:50.709 --> 00:04:53.870 Gambling is a kind of amusement game 00:04:53.870 --> 00:04:55.870 And monuments and stones 00:04:55.870 --> 00:04:58.870 This is linked to corrupt beliefs 00:04:58.870 --> 00:05:00.870 It was among the people of pre-Islamic times 00:05:00.870 --> 00:05:03.379 The provisions of the Sharia 00:05:03.379 --> 00:05:05.379 It is not related to any aspect of life 00:05:05.379 --> 00:05:08.379 Rather, it includes all aspects of life 00:05:08.379 --> 00:05:11.379 O you who have believed, it is only wine and gambling 00:05:11.379 --> 00:05:13.379 And monuments and stones 00:05:13.379 --> 00:05:15.379 A man who is the work of Satan, so avoid him 00:05:15.379 --> 00:05:18.379 Here someone comes out and says: 00:05:18.379 --> 00:05:21.379 You brought religion into everything, even into games 00:05:21.379 --> 00:05:25.379 The answer comes in the last verse in the great Surah 00:05:25.379 --> 00:05:29.379 It is a conclusion linked to the entire Surah 00:05:29.379 --> 00:05:31.379 As some scholars have alerted 00:05:31.379 --> 00:05:34.379 God Almighty said in the last verse in the surah 00:05:34.379 --> 00:05:39.379 To God belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth and all that is in them 00:05:39.379 --> 00:05:42.379 He is powerful over all things 00:05:42.379 --> 00:05:44.420 Notice this verse 00:05:44.420 --> 00:05:47.420 It is related to all the provisions contained in the Surah 00:05:47.420 --> 00:05:49.420 No matter how much you object 00:05:49.420 --> 00:05:52.449 On one of the provisions of the Surah 00:05:52.449 --> 00:05:54.449 Or the provisions of Sharia in general 00:05:54.449 --> 00:05:56.449 Why does he even get into people's games?
