00:09:09.139 --> 00:09:14.340 We have escaped from God’s punishment in any way 00:09:14.340 --> 00:09:19.100 They said, “If God had guided you, we would have guided you.” 00:09:19.100 --> 00:09:30.230 Whether we are afraid or patient, we have no recourse 00:09:30.230 --> 00:09:35.909 Those who disbelieved in him will appear on the Day of Resurrection from their graves 00:09:35.909 --> 00:09:39.549 So they became excreed from the ground entirely 00:09:39.669 --> 00:09:47.190 She said: “One of them will be sold to the followers who were arrogant in sincerity in worshiping God.” 00:09:47.190 --> 00:09:49.750 We were your followers 00:09:49.750 --> 00:09:54.909 We follow your command to worship idols and disbelieve in God 00:09:54.909 --> 00:09:59.899 Are you defending us today from God’s punishment? 00:09:59.899 --> 00:10:04.179 She told the leaders to disbelieve in God in order to follow her 00:10:04.179 --> 00:10:09.220 If God made clear to us something with which we could repel His torment on our behalf today 00:10:09.220 --> 00:10:15.169 We have made that clear to you so that you may ward off the torment from yourselves 00:10:15.169 --> 00:10:22.289 But we were frightened by the torment, but it did not benefit us. We were frightened by it and patient with it 00:10:22.289 --> 00:10:30.509 Whether we are afraid or patient, we have nothing to desire 00:10:30.509 --> 00:10:38.669 When the matter was decided, Satan said, “God promised you a true promise.” 00:10:38.710 --> 00:10:41.950 I promised you but I broke your promise 00:10:41.950 --> 00:10:52.389 I had no authority over you except that I called you and you responded to me 00:10:52.389 --> 00:10:58.190 Don't blame me, blame yourselves 00:10:58.190 --> 00:11:03.669 I am not your screamer, and you are not my screamer 00:11:03.669 --> 00:11:09.669 For I disbelieved in what you associated with me before 00:11:09.669 --> 00:11:16.600 The wrongdoers will have a painful punishment 00:11:16.600 --> 00:11:22.600 Satan said: When the people of Paradise enter Paradise and the people of Hell Hell 00:11:22.600 --> 00:11:26.600 God has promised you, O followers, Hell 00:11:26.600 --> 00:11:28.600 I promised you victory 00:11:28.600 --> 00:11:30.600 So I broke my promise to you 00:11:30.600 --> 00:11:33.629 And God fulfilled His promise to you 00:11:33.629 --> 00:11:41.629 In what I promised you of support, I had no proof against you to prove the truth of my words against you 00:11:41.629 --> 00:11:45.629 However, I call you to obey me and disobey God 00:11:45.629 --> 00:11:47.629 So you answered my prayer 00:11:47.629 --> 00:11:51.629 Don't blame me for your answer 00:11:51.629 --> 00:11:54.629 Blame yourselves for it 00:11:54.629 --> 00:11:56.629 I will not help you 00:11:56.629 --> 00:12:01.629 Nor can you save me from the punishment of God, so I can save myself from it 00:12:01.629 --> 00:12:09.629 I denied that I would be a partner with God in what you included me in of worship before in this world 00:12:09.629 --> 00:12:13.629 Indeed, those who disbelieve in God will have a painful punishment 00:12:13.629 --> 00:12:30.850 And those who believe and do righteous deeds will be admitted into gardens beneath which rivers flow 00:12:30.850 --> 00:12:36.850 And include those who believed God and His Messenger and acted in obedience to God 00:12:36.850 --> 00:12:43.649 Orchards under which rivers flow, in which they will remain forever 00:12:43.649 --> 00:12:50.649 They entered it by God's command for them to enter, and their greeting was peace 00:12:50.649 --> 00:12:56.649 Didn't you see how God struck her? 00:12:56.649 --> 00:13:07.090 A good word is like a good tree whose root is firm and whose branches are in the sky 00:13:07.090 --> 00:13:13.090 It bears fruit at all times, with the permission of its Lord 00:13:13.090 --> 00:13:23.090 And God strikes her, and God strikes her, and God strikes her, and God strikes her, and God strikes her 00:13:23.090 --> 00:13:30.090 Did you not see, O Muhammad, with the eyes of your heart? 00:13:30.090 --> 00:13:38.230 So learn how God is like an example and something similar 00:13:38.230 --> 00:13:42.230 Like believing in him as a tree with good fruit 00:13:42.230 --> 00:13:46.230 The root of this tree is fixed in the ground 00:13:46.230 --> 00:13:47.230 Its highest point is high towards the sky 00:13:47.230 --> 00:13:52.259 armp armp 화� m하고 Then he catches the eye of your heart 00:13:52.259 --> 00:13:55.259 High up towards the sky 00:13:55.259 --> 00:14:00.259 It is fed with whatever fruit is eaten every morning and evening 00:14:00.259 --> 00:14:03.259 And every hour is at the command of its Lord 00:14:03.259 --> 00:14:06.259 God presents examples to people 00:14:06.259 --> 00:14:10.259 So that they may remember God’s argument against them and take it into account 00:14:10.259 --> 00:14:14.259 And they are repelled from their disbelief in Him 00:14:14.259 --> 00:14:19.299 So multiply what this tree produces every once in a while in terms of food 00:14:19.299 --> 00:14:22.299 For example, the believer’s actions and words 00:14:22.299 --> 00:14:28.299 There is no doubt that every day the believer is rewarded with good deeds and words 00:14:28.299 --> 00:14:39.419 An evil word is like an evil tree uprooted from the earth 00:14:39.419 --> 00:14:46.419 It uprooted from the earth what had no stability 00:14:46.419 --> 00:14:50.990 The example of polytheism in God is like a malicious tree 00:14:50.990 --> 00:14:53.990 Uprooted from the ground 00:14:53.990 --> 00:14:59.990 This tree has no stability and no root in the earth upon which it can stand and stand 00:14:59.990 --> 00:15:05.059 Rather, I struck this tree that God described with this characteristic 00:15:05.059 --> 00:15:09.059 For example, for the infidel to disbelieve and associate with him 00:15:09.059 --> 00:15:13.059 There is no stability for the disbelief of the infidel and his work on earth 00:15:13.059 --> 00:15:16.059 There is no elevator in heaven 00:15:16.059 --> 00:15:26.210 God strengthens those who believe with the firm word in this life and in the afterlife 00:15:26.210 --> 00:15:31.210 And God misleads the wrongdoers 00:15:31.210 --> 00:15:35.210 And God does whatever He wants 00:15:35.210 --> 00:15:40.940 God fulfills the deeds and faith of those who believe 00:15:40.940 --> 00:15:47.940 By believing in God and His Messenger Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace, in this worldly life 00:15:47.940 --> 00:15:50.940 And in the afterlife in their graves 00:15:50.940 --> 00:15:57.940 When they are asked about their belief in monotheism and belief in His Messenger, may God bless him and grant him peace 00:15:57.940 --> 00:16:03.940 God does not help the hypocrite and the unbeliever in this life and in the afterlife 00:16:03.940 --> 00:16:07.940 In the hands of God is guidance and misguidance 00:16:07.940 --> 00:16:10.940 Do not deny, O people, his ability 00:16:10.940 --> 00:16:14.940 For in His hand is the direction of His creation and the upturn of their hearts 00:16:14.940 --> 00:16:17.940 He does whatever he wants to them 00:16:17.940 --> 00:16:22.889 Conclusion from Al-Tabari’s interpretation
