Surah Friday
0:19
In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
0:23
Whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on earth glorifies God, the Holy King, the Mighty, the Wise
0:33
Everything in the seven heavens and everything on the two earths of His creation glorify God
0:40
He glorifies him willingly or unwillingly
0:43
He who has the dominion and authority of this world and the hereafter
0:48
Whose command is effective in the heavens and the earth and all that is in them
0:52
He is pure from everything that polytheists add to Him
0:57
They describe him with something that is not one of his characteristics
1:00
Blessed
1:02
He is intense in his revenge on his enemies
1:05
The wise man is in his management of his creation
1:08
He directed them to what he knew best of their interests
1:14
It is He who sent among the trustworthy a messenger from among themselves who recites to them His verses, purifies them, and teaches them the Book and wisdom
1:31
And He teaches them the Book and the Wisdom, even though before that they were in clear error
1:42
God is the one who sent among the Arabs a messenger from among them
1:45
His saying is a metaphor for the name of God
1:49
He recites to these illiterate people the verses God revealed to him
1:55
And purifies them from the filth of disbelief
1:58
He teaches them the Book of God and what it contains of God’s commands and prohibitions
2:02
And the laws of his religion and the Sunnah
2:05
These people were illiterate before God sent among them a messenger
2:11
In intentionally unfairness
2:14
It becomes clear to those who contemplate it that it is a misguidance and an injustice away from the truth and the path of guidance
2:21
And others of them when they catch up with them
2:26
He is the Mighty, the Wise
2:30
That is the grace of God, which He gives to whomever He wishes
2:35
God is of great bounty
2:40
It is He who sent among the illiterate people a messenger from among them
2:44
And every successor is attached to those who accompanied the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, in their conversion to Islam, from any race
2:53
They have not come yet and they will come
2:56
God Almighty will take revenge on those who disbelieve in Him
3:01
The wise man is in his management of his creation
3:04
This is God's grace
3:06
Prefer it over these and not over others
3:10
And God bestows His bounty on whomsoever He wishes of His creation
3:14
He who has been forbidden by God does not deserve to be blamed
3:18
Because he didn't really stop him, he had it before him
3:22
There is no injustice to him in diverting it to someone else
3:25
But he knew who had family
3:29
So entrust it to him and keep it with him
3:32
God is the Possessor of grace to His servants
3:35
The good ones and the bad ones
3:37
The one who diminishes the merit of everyone who is favored by Him
3:42
The example of those who carried the Torah and then did not carry it is like a donkey carrying books
3:52
Miserable are the people who denied the signs of God
3:58
And God does not guide the unjust people
4:04
Like those who were given the Torah, both Jews and Christians
4:08
So they decided to work with it and then did not work with what was in it
4:13
And they lied about Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace
4:17
They were commanded to believe in him, follow him, and believe in him
4:22
Like a donkey carrying books of knowledge on its back
4:27
He does not benefit from it and does not understand what is in it
4:30
So are those who were given the Torah, which contains an explanation of the command of Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace
4:38
Like them if they do not benefit from what is in it
4:41
Like a donkey that carries books containing knowledge
4:45
He does not understand it and does not benefit from it
4:49
How miserable this example is like the people who rejected God’s signs, evidence, and arguments
4:56
And God will not grant success to the people who wronged themselves and disbelieved in the signs of their Lord
5:04
Say, O you who are Jews, if you claim that you are friends of God rather than people, then wish for death if you are truthful.
5:34
Say, O Muhammad, to the Jews
5:36
O you who are Jews, if you claim that you are friends of God to the exclusion of people except you
5:43
So wish for death if you are truthful in your statement that you are friends of God rather than people
5:51
God does not punish His friends, but rather honors them and bestows blessings upon them
5:57
And if you are right in what you say, then wish for death so that you may be relieved from the distress of this world and its worries and sorrows, and attain the spirit of Paradise and its bliss through death.
6:11
And they will never wish for it because of what their hands have put forward. And God is All-Knowing of the wrongdoers
6:25
The Jews never wish for death because of the sins they acquired in this world and the evil deeds they committed
6:34
And God is All-Knowing of whoever among his creation wronged himself, so he punished it with his disbelief in God
6:41
Say, “The death from which you are fleeing will meet you. Then you will be returned to the Knower of the unseen and the witnessed, and He will inform you of what you used to do.”
7:06
Say, O Muhammad, to the Jews: The death from which you are fleeing and which you hate and refuse to wish for will meet you and descend upon you. Then you will be returned to the world of the unseen and the witnessed.
7:22
That is, then your Lord will return you after your death to the unseen world of the heavens and the earth
7:29
Testimony is what was witnessed and appeared to the eye and did not escape the sight of onlookers
7:36
Then He will tell you what deeds you did in this world, good and bad, because He encompasses all of them. Then He will reward you for that, the doer of good with His good, and the wrongdoer with what he deserves.
8:07
O you who are truthful to God and His Messenger, when the call to Friday prayer is made when the imam sits on the pulpit to deliver the sermon, then they go to the remembrance of God and work for Him and abandon buying and selling when the call is called for prayer during the sermon.
8:26
When the call to prayer begins on Friday, for you to seek the remembrance of God and forsake selling, is better for you than buying and selling at that time, if you know the benefits and harms of your souls.
8:40
When the prayer is completed, spread out over the land and seek God’s bounty, and remember God often, that you may succeed
8:46
If you perform the Friday prayer on Friday, spread out throughout the land if you wish
8:51
When the prayer is completed, spread out over the land and seek God’s bounty, and remember God often, that you may succeed
9:10
If you perform the Friday prayer on Friday, spread out across the land if you wish. This is a permission from God for you to do so
9:21
And seek the bounty of God, in whose hands are the keys to His treasures for your life in this world and your hereafter, and remember God with praise to Him.
9:30
And thanks for the success He has bestowed upon you in performing His obligations, so that you may succeed, so that your requests may be fulfilled before your Lord, and you may attain eternity in His Paradise.
9:43
And if they see trade or entertainment, they go to it and leave you standing. Say: What is with God is better than entertainment and than trade, and God is the Best of Providers.
10:07
And if the believers see the shame or entertainment of trade, they go to it, meaning they hasten to trade and leave you, O Muhammad, standing on the pulpit.
10:19
This is because of the trade they saw, so the people dispersed to it and left the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, standing
10:28
It was oil brought by Dihya bin Khalifa from the Levant. Tell them, O Muhammad, who has the reward from God for whoever sits and listens to the prayer of the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace.
10:44
It is better for him than amusement and commerce to which they devote themselves, and God is the best Provider. So to Him, seek your sustenance, and to Him, ask that He extend to you His bounty and no other.
