Surat Fatir
0:18
In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
0:22
God holds the heavens and the earth lest they pass away
0:30
Even if it disappears if anyone takes possession of it after him
0:37
He was kind and forgiving
0:43
God holds the heavens and the earth so that they do not move from their places
0:49
Even if they were removed, no one would hold them except them
0:53
Indeed, God is forbearing towards whomever He associates with Him in hastening His torment
0:59
Forgiving of the sins of those who repent
1:03
And they swore to God their strongest oaths that a warner would come to them
1:12
If a warner comes to them, they will be more guided than any of the nations
1:20
When a warner came to them, it only increased their aversion
1:30
These polytheists swore the strongest oaths and went to extremes in them
1:35
Because if a warner comes to them from God, he warns them of God’s punishment
1:39
So that I may follow the path of truth
1:42
They are more accepting of him than any of the nations that came before them
1:47
When Muhammad came to them, warning them of God’s punishment for their disbelief
1:53
The coming of the warner only increased their faith in God in flight
2:00
And when there came to them from God someone who had guided them, they were not warned except the Sunnah of the ancients
2:09
You will not find any change in the Sunnah of God
2:15
You will not find any change in the Sunnah of God
2:31
Flee out of arrogance in the land and a bad deception
2:35
This is because they turned away the weak from following him
2:39
Bad deception is only inflicted on those who do it
2:43
Do these polytheists wait for anything other than that My vengeance befalls them for their polytheism, just as I imposed upon those before them?
2:52
O Muhammad, you will not find any change in the Sunnah of God
2:56
You will not find any change in the Sunnah of God in His creation
3:00
Because there is no turning back to his decree
3:04
Did they not travel through the land and see what was the end of those before them, who were more powerful than them?
3:17
Nothing in the heavens or on earth is impossible for God to do
3:25
Indeed, He was All-Knowing and All-Powerful
3:32
O Muhammad, did these polytheists not walk in the land whose people We destroyed because of their disbelief?
3:39
They are merchants who travel to the Levant
3:43
Then they will see what was the end of the nations before them
3:48
Did we not destroy them and destroy their dwellings?
3:51
They were stronger and more brutal than them
3:55
It will not be impossible for Him to do to them what He did to those who hastened vengeance
4:02
These polytheists who worship God will not fail us if we want to destroy them
4:09
Because God would not be unable to do anything He wants in the heavens or on earth
4:15
He was aware of His creation and what is
4:20
He is able to take revenge on whomever he wants
4:23
And granting success to those who wish to them to faith
4:28
If God were to hold people accountable for what they have earned, He would not leave a single animal on its back
4:40
But He delays them for a specified period
4:50
When their time comes, God is ever Seeing of His servants
5:01
Even if God punishes people for the sins and transgressions they have committed
5:06
No animal was left on its back to move around
5:10
But He will postpone their punishment for what they have earned for a period known to Him
5:16
When the time for their punishment comes, then God is ever Seeing of His servants
5:22
Who deserves to be punished and who deserves dignity?
