0:00 In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
0:05 A summary of the Tafsir of al-Tabari.
0:08 Abridged by Dr. Aqil Ibn Salim al-Shammari.
0:12 Surah al-Rum.
0:18 In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
0:24 “Allah is He Who shaped you out of weakness, then appointed after weakness strength, then, after strength, appointed weakness and grey hair. He createth what He will. He is the Knower, the Mighty.” (30:54)
0:34 “Allah is He Who shaped you out of weakness, then appointed after weakness strength, then, after strength, appointed weakness and grey hair. He createth what He will. He is the Knower, the Mighty.” (30:54)
0:40 Then, after strength, He brings about weakness and old age.
0:47 “Allah is He Who shaped you out of weakness, then appointed after weakness strength, then, after strength, appointed weakness and grey hair. He createth what He will. He is the Knower, the Mighty.” (30:54)
0:54 It is Allah who created you, O people, from a drop of fluid and a base liquid.
0:59 Then He fashioned you into well-proportioned human beings.
1:02 Then He granted you the strength to act and function.
1:05 Then He brought upon you the weakness of senescence and old age.
1:09 He creates whatever He wills of weakness, strength, youth, and gray hair.
1:14 He is the All-Knowing in the governance of His creation, the All-Powerful over whatever He wills.
1:21 “And on the day when the Hour riseth the guilty will vow that they did tarry but an hour - thus were they ever deceived.” (30:55)
1:27 Thus were they deluded.
1:32 On the day the hour of resurrection arrives.
1:35 The criminals, who used to disbelieve in Allah in the worldly life, will swear.
1:40 That they had not remained in their graves for more than a single hour.
1:44 Just as they used to lie in the worldly life and swear to falsehoods while knowing the truth.
1:51 “But those to whom knowledge and faith are given will say: The truth is, ye have tarried, by Allah's decree, until the Day of Resurrection. This is the Day of Resurrection, but ye used not to know.” (30:56)
1:55 “But those to whom knowledge and faith are given will say: The truth is, ye have tarried, by Allah's decree, until the Day of Resurrection. This is the Day of Resurrection, but ye used not to know.” (30:56)
2:01 “But those to whom knowledge and faith are given will say: The truth is, ye have tarried, by Allah's decree, until the Day of Resurrection. This is the Day of Resurrection, but ye used not to know.” (30:56)
2:09 And those who were given knowledge of the Book of Allah and faith in Allah and His Book will say:
2:15 "You have remained for the duration that Allah decreed, according to what preceded in His knowledge that you would remain."
2:21 For this is the day when people are resurrected from their graves.
2:25 But you did not know in the worldly life that this would come to pass.
2:30 And that you would be resurrected after death.
2:34 “In that day their excuses will not profit those who did injustice, nor will they be allowed to make amends.” (30:57)
2:44 So on the day they are resurrected from their graves.
2:46 The excuses of those who denied the resurrection in the worldly life will be of no benefit to them.
2:51 Which is their saying, "We did not know that this would happen."
2:55 Nor will these wrongdoers be allowed to return to make amends for what they used to deny in the worldly life.
3:04 We have set forth for people in this Qur'an every kind of example.
3:12 “Verily We have coined for mankind in this Qur'an all kinds of similitudes; and indeed if thou camest unto them with a miracle, those who disbelieve would verily exclaim: Ye are but tricksters!” (30:58)
3:23 We have presented to people in this Qur'an every kind of parable.
3:28 As an argument against them and a reminder to them of the oneness of Allah.
3:34 And if you, O Muhammad, were to bring these people a sign of the truthfulness of what you say.
3:39 Those who rejected your message would surely say:
3:43 "You, who believe in Muhammad regarding what he has brought to you.
3:47 Are nothing but falsifiers in what you bring to us of these matters."
3:53 “Thus doth Allah seal the hearts of those who know not.” (30:59)
4:01 Thus does Allah seal the hearts of those who do not know the reality of what you bring to them, O Muhammad, from Allah.
4:09 Of these lessons and admonitions.
4:12 So be patient; indeed, the promise of Allah is true.
4:17 “So have patience (O Muhammad)! Allah's promise is the very truth, and let not those who have no certainty make thee impatient.” (30:60)
4:26 So be patient, O Muhammad, regarding the harm that reaches you from them.
4:29 For the promise of Allah, which He promised you of victory over them, is true.
4:34 And do not let these polytheists, who associate partners with Allah, unsettle your forbearance and resolve.
4:39 Those who do not have certainty in the afterlife and do not believe in the resurrection.
4:44 Lest they discourage you from the command of Allah and from carrying out what He has tasked you with in conveying His message to them.
