0:05 A summary of the Tafsir of al-Tabari.

0:08 Abridged by Dr. ‘Aqil ibn Salim al-Shammari.

0:12 Surah al-Ahzab.

0:18 In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

0:23 “If the hypocrites, and those in whose hearts is a disease, and the alarmists in the city do not cease, We verily shall urge thee on against them, then they will be your neighbours in it but a little while.” (33:60)

0:30 And those who spread rumors in Medina.

0:33 “If the hypocrites, and those in whose hearts is a disease, and the alarmists in the city do not cease, We verily shall urge thee on against them, then they will be your neighbours in it but a little while.” (33:60)

0:43 “If the hypocrites, and those in whose hearts is a disease, and the alarmists in the city do not cease, We verily shall urge thee on against them, then they will be your neighbours in it but a little while.” (33:60)

0:50 If the hypocrites and those in whose hearts is a disease—driven by the lust for adultery and a love for immorality—do not desist.

0:57 And those who spread falsehoods and lies in Medina.

1:01 We will surely empower you against them, and We will incite them against you.

1:05 Then they will not remain in your city.

1:07 They will not dwell with you there except for a short time and a brief duration.

1:14 Cursed.

1:16 Wherever they are found, they shall be seized and slaughtered in a massacre.

1:23 Driven out and banished.

1:25 Wherever they are encountered on earth, they shall be seized and slaughtered for their disbelief in Allah.

1:32 The Sunnah of Allah regarding those who passed away before.

1:38 And you will never find any change in the Sunnah of Allah.

1:46 The Sunnah of Allah regarding those who passed away before these hypocrites.

1:51 Once they manifest their hypocrisy.

1:53 Is that He will have them slaughtered and curse them with a great curse.

1:58 And you, O Muhammad, will never find any alteration in the Sunnah that Allah has established for His creation.

2:04 So be certain that He will not change His Sunnah regarding these hypocrites.

2:10 “Men ask thee of the Hour. Say: The knowledge of it is with Allah only. What can convey (the knowledge) unto thee? It may be that the Hour is nigh.” (33:63)

2:14 Say: "The knowledge of it is with Allah."

2:21 And what makes you know? Perhaps the Hour is near.

2:28 People ask you, O Muhammad, about the Hour, when it will occur.

2:33 Tell them that the knowledge of the Hour is with Allah alone.

2:37 No one knows the time of its arrival except Him.

2:40 And what makes you realize, O Muhammad, that perhaps the coming of the Hour is near to you?

2:47 “Lo! Allah hath cursed the disbelievers, and hath prepared for them a flaming fire,” (33:64)

2:54 “Wherein they will abide for ever. They will find (then) no protecting friend nor helper.” (33:65)

3:04 Indeed, Allah has distanced those who disbelieve in Him from every good.

3:08 And He has prepared for them in the Hereafter a fire that blazes and rages.

3:13 They will enter it, remaining in the blazing fire forever, without end.

3:19 They will find no protector to take charge of them and rescue them from the fire.

3:24 Nor any helper to aid them and save them from the punishment of Allah.

3:30 “On the day when their faces are turned over in the Fire, they say: Oh, would that we had obeyed Allah and had obeyed His messenger!” (33:66)

3:45 These disbelievers will find no protector or helper on the day their faces are turned about in the Fire, state after state.

3:53 They will say, "We wish we had obeyed Allah in the world and obeyed His Messenger in what he brought us of His commands and prohibitions."

4:02 Then we would have been with the people of Paradise in Paradise.

4:07 “And they say: Our Lord! Lo! we obeyed our princes and great men, and they misled us from the Way.” (33:67)

4:18 “Our Lord! Oh, give them double torment and curse them with a mighty curse.” (33:68)

4:27 And the disbelievers will say:

4:29 "Our Lord, we obeyed our leaders in misguidance and our elders in polytheism."

4:34 "So they led us astray from the path of truth, the way of guidance, and belief in You."

4:40 "Our Lord, punish them with a punishment double our own, and curse them with a great curse."

4:48 O you who have believed, do not be like those who harmed Moses; then Allah cleared him of what they said, and he was, in the sight of Allah, distinguished.

5:11 O you who have believed in Allah and His Messenger.

5:15 Do not harm the Messenger of Allah with any word or deed that he dislikes from you.

5:20 And do not be like those who harmed Moses, accusing him of a fault falsely and untruthfully.

5:27 But Allah cleared him of the lies and falsehoods they spoke against him.

5:32 And Moses was, in the sight of Allah, one whose intercession was accepted in what he asked.

5:36 He held a position of honor and status with Him due to his obedience to Him.

5:42 “O ye who believe! Guard your duty to Allah, and speak words straight to the point;” (33:70)

5:50 “He will adjust your works for you and will forgive you your sins. Whosoever obeyeth Allah and His messenger, he verily hath gained a signal victory.” (33:71)

5:56 “He will adjust your works for you and will forgive you your sins. Whosoever obeyeth Allah and His messenger, he verily hath gained a signal victory.” (33:71)

6:05 O you who have affirmed your faith in Allah and His Messenger.

6:08 Fear Allah, lest you disobey Him.

6:11 And speak regarding the Messenger of Allah and the believers words that are direct, true, and not false.

6:17 He will rectify your deeds for you and forgive your sins.

6:22 And whoever obeys Allah and His Messenger, acting upon what He has commanded.

6:27 And refrains from what He has forbidden.

6:29 He has indeed attained the greatest honor from Allah.

6:34 “Lo! We offered the trust unto the heavens and the earth and the hills, but they shrank from bearing it and were afraid of it. And man assumed it. Lo! he hath proved a tyrant and a fool.” (33:72)

6:41 And the mountains, but they refused to bear it and were afraid of it.

6:49 “Lo! We offered the trust unto the heavens and the earth and the hills, but they shrank from bearing it and were afraid of it. And man assumed it. Lo! he hath proved a tyrant and a fool.” (33:72)

6:56 “Lo! We offered the trust unto the heavens and the earth and the hills, but they shrank from bearing it and were afraid of it. And man assumed it. Lo! he hath proved a tyrant and a fool.” (33:72)

7:03 Indeed, Allah presented His obedience and obligations to the heavens, the earth, and the mountains.

7:09 On the condition that if they did well, they would be rewarded and compensated.

7:14 And if they neglected it, they would be punished.

7:16 So they refused to bear it, fearing that they would not fulfill the duty required of them.

7:22 But man undertook it.

7:24 Indeed, he was unjust to himself.

7:26 Ignorant of what he took upon himself between him and his Lord.

7:32 “So Allah punisheth hypocritical men and hypocritical women, and idolatrous men and idolatrous women. But Allah pardoneth believing men and believing women, and Allah is ever Forgiving, Merciful.” (33:73)

7:41 And the polytheistic men and polytheistic women.

7:44 “So Allah punisheth hypocritical men and hypocritical women, and idolatrous men and idolatrous women. But Allah pardoneth believing men and believing women, and Allah is ever Forgiving, Merciful.” (33:73)

7:50 And Allah has ever been Forgiving, Merciful.

7:56 And man bore the trust so that Allah might punish the hypocrite men and hypocrite women.

8:02 And the polytheistic men and polytheistic women.

8:06 “So Allah punisheth hypocritical men and hypocritical women, and idolatrous men and idolatrous women. But Allah pardoneth believing men and believing women, and Allah is ever Forgiving, Merciful.” (33:73)

8:09 He turns them back to His obedience and the fulfillment of the trusts He has obligated upon them, until they fulfill them.

8:17 And Allah has ever been Forgiving of the sins of the believing men and believing women by concealing them.

8:22 Merciful in that He does not punish them for them after they have repented.
