A summary of the Tafsir of al-Tabari.

00:00:08,580 --> 00:00:12,740
Abridged by Dr. 'Aqil ibn Salim al-Shammar.

4
00:00:14,150 --> 00:00:16,149
Surah al-Shura.

5
00:00:18,429 --> 00:00:22,629
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

6
00:00:23,589 --> 00:00:29,510
“And it was not (vouchsafed) to any mortal that Allah should speak to him unless (it be) by revelation or from behind a veil, or (that) He sendeth a messenger to reveal what He will by His leave. Lo! He is Exalted, Wise.” (42:51)

7
00:00:29,710 --> 00:00:36,710
“And it was not (vouchsafed) to any mortal that Allah should speak to him unless (it be) by revelation or from behind a veil, or (that) He sendeth a messenger to reveal what He will by His leave. Lo! He is Exalted, Wise.” (42:51)

8
00:00:37,109 --> 00:00:43,390
“And it was not (vouchsafed) to any mortal that Allah should speak to him unless (it be) by revelation or from behind a veil, or (that) He sendeth a messenger to reveal what He will by His leave. Lo! He is Exalted, Wise.” (42:51)

9
00:00:43,710 --> 00:00:48,509
Indeed, He is Exalted, All-Wise.

10
00:00:50,210 --> 00:00:54,609
It is not given to any human being among the children of Adam that Allah should speak to him,

11
00:00:54,969 --> 00:00:58,570
except by revelation, where Allah reveals to him as He wills,

12
00:00:58,969 --> 00:01:02,969
or by speaking to him from behind a veil, such that he hears His speech but does not see Him,

13
00:01:03,369 --> 00:01:06,569
or by Allah sending a messenger from among His angels,

14
00:01:06,969 --> 00:01:13,569
who then reveals to the one sent, by the permission of His Lord, whatever He wills of commands and prohibitions.

15
00:01:13,969 --> 00:01:16,769
Indeed, He is exalted above all things.

16
00:01:16,969 --> 00:01:19,969
He is possessor of wisdom in the governance of His creation.

17
00:01:21,969 --> 00:01:27,370
“And thus have We inspired in thee (Muhammad) a Spirit of Our command. Thou knewest not what the Scripture was, nor what the Faith. But We have made it a light whereby We guide whom We will of Our bondmen. And lo! thou verily dost guide unto a right path,” (42:52)

18
00:01:27,769 --> 00:01:31,969
“And thus have We inspired in thee (Muhammad) a Spirit of Our command. Thou knewest not what the Scripture was, nor what the Faith. But We have made it a light whereby We guide whom We will of Our bondmen. And lo! thou verily dost guide unto a right path,” (42:52)

19
00:01:32,170 --> 00:01:35,569
Rather, We have made it a light.

20
00:01:36,170 --> 00:01:40,569
“And thus have We inspired in thee (Muhammad) a Spirit of Our command. Thou knewest not what the Scripture was, nor what the Faith. But We have made it a light whereby We guide whom We will of Our bondmen. And lo! thou verily dost guide unto a right path,” (42:52)

21
00:01:40,769 --> 00:01:44,569
“And thus have We inspired in thee (Muhammad) a Spirit of Our command. Thou knewest not what the Scripture was, nor what the Faith. But We have made it a light whereby We guide whom We will of Our bondmen. And lo! thou verily dost guide unto a right path,” (42:52)

22
00:01:45,170 --> 00:01:51,569
“And thus have We inspired in thee (Muhammad) a Spirit of Our command. Thou knewest not what the Scripture was, nor what the Faith. But We have made it a light whereby We guide whom We will of Our bondmen. And lo! thou verily dost guide unto a right path,” (42:52)

23
00:01:53,299 --> 00:01:56,299
And just as We revealed to the rest of Our messengers,

24
00:01:56,700 --> 00:02:00,700
so too have We revealed to you, O Muhammad, this Qur'an,

25
00:02:00,900 --> 00:02:02,700
as a mercy from Our command.

26
00:02:03,099 --> 00:02:07,900
You did not know, O Muhammad, what the Book was, nor what faith was.

27
00:02:08,300 --> 00:02:12,099
But We have made this Qur'an a radiance for the people.

28
00:02:12,500 --> 00:02:18,900
By this Qur'an, We guide whom We will of Our servants to the straight path.

29
00:02:19,099 --> 00:02:23,900
And indeed, O Muhammad, you guide our servants to a straight path,

30
00:02:24,099 --> 00:02:28,580
through calling them to Allah and clarifying the truth to them.

31
00:02:28,780 --> 00:02:34,780
“The path of Allah, unto Whom belongeth whatsoever is in the heavens and whatsoever is in the earth. Do not all things reach Allah at last?” (42:53)

32
00:02:35,180 --> 00:02:42,659
“The path of Allah, unto Whom belongeth whatsoever is in the heavens and whatsoever is in the earth. Do not all things reach Allah at last?” (42:53)

33
00:02:43,060 --> 00:02:48,060
The path of Allah, to Whom belongs the dominion of all that is in the heavens and all that is on the earth.

34
00:02:48,460 --> 00:02:52,860
Behold, O people, to Allah shall all your affairs return in the Hereafter.

35
00:02:52,860 --> 00:02:55,860
And He will judge between you with justice.
