In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
0:05
Conclusion from Al-Tabari’s interpretation
0:08
It was summarized by Dr. Aqeel bin Salem Al-Shammari
0:14
Surah Al-A'raf
0:17
In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
0:23
The arrogant leaders of his people said, “We will expel you, O Shuaib.”
0:33
We will expel you, Shuaib, and those who believed with you from our village
0:41
Or to return to our religion
0:48
Olu said we were haters
0:54
He said the group of men were arrogant in their belief in God
0:59
We will expel you, Shuaib, and whoever believes you, from our village
1:04
Or you and they will return to our religion
1:07
Shuaib said in response to them
1:10
Will you expel us from your village and avert us from the path of God?
1:15
Even if we hate it
1:18
We have fabricated a lie against God if we return to your religion
1:25
If we return to your religion after God has saved us from it
1:32
It is not for us to return to it unless God, our Lord, wills
1:42
Our Lord encompasses all things in knowledge
1:47
In God we trust
1:50
O Lord, we will grant victory between us and our people with truth, and You are the best of conquerors
2:01
We have fabricated a lie against God if we return to your religion
2:05
So we returned to it after God saved us from it
2:09
That we saw its error and the correctness of the guidance that we are upon
2:14
And it is not for us to return to it
2:17
So we condemn it and abandon the truth that we have
2:21
Unless God already knows that we will return to it
2:26
Then God's judgment will pass upon us
2:30
If our Lord’s knowledge expands and encompasses everything
2:34
Nothing is hidden from him
2:37
We depend on God for our affairs
2:40
O Lord, we judge between us and them with Your true judgment in which there is no injustice
2:46
You are the best of rulers
2:49
And the leaders of his people who disbelieved said
2:54
If you follow Shuaib, then you will lose
3:02
The group said that the men of Shuaib's people were infidels
3:06
Because you followed Shuaib on what he says about the Oneness of God
3:11
And fulfilling His commands and prohibitions
3:14
Therefore, you are wronged in your actions and are doomed by it
3:28
So the disbelievers among Shuaib’s people were seized by the earthquake that would trigger the punishment of God
3:35
So they were in their home, kneeling on their knees in death
3:46
So those who lied to Shuaib were enriched therein. They were the losers
3:55
So those who denied Shuaib were destroyed and did not believe in him
4:00
So he exterminated them as if they had never descended and had not lived there when they perished
4:06
Those who lied were the losers
4:12
So he turned away from them and said, “O my people, I have conveyed to you the messages of my Lord and given you sincere advice.”
4:21
How can I feel sorry for an unbelieving people?
4:29
So Shuaib turned away from them from behind them when the punishment of God came upon them
4:35
He said he was sad for them
4:37
O my people, I have delivered to you what my Lord sent me to you with
4:43
I advised you by ordering you to obey God and forbidding you to disobey Him
4:49
How can I grieve for a people who denied the oneness of God and denied His Messenger, and feel pain for their destruction?
4:58
We never sent a prophet into a town but We took its people
5:07
Unless We afflict its people with misfortune and hardship, perhaps they will supplicate
5:19
We did not send any prophet before you to any town except that We seized its people with misery, hardship, and distress
5:29
And We took them to a bad state in their worldly affairs
5:33
We did this so that they would supplicate to their Lord and seek refuge in Him
5:38
By abandoning their disbelief and repenting from denying their prophets
6:00
So We seized them suddenly while they were not aware
6:12
Then we replaced the people of the village whose people we had captured through misery and hardship
6:18
A place of misery with prosperity, grace and abundance of living
6:23
Until they multiplied and their money increased
6:26
They said: These are conditions that have befallen those before us, our fathers, and have befallen our ancestors
6:34
We do not consider ourselves to be like them. We suffer from the hardship and prosperity that befell them in their lives
6:43
So We took them by surprise by destroying them with His coming
6:47
And they do not know or know that it is coming to them
6:51
And if the people of the towns had believed and feared, We would have granted them blessings from heaven and earth, but they lied, so We seized them for what they were earning.
7:22
Even if the people of the villages to whom we sent our messengers had believed God and His Messenger
7:28
They feared the punishment of God by avoiding the deeds that He hates
7:33
We would have sent blessings of rain upon them
7:37
And We caused them to grow plants from the earth
7:40
But they denied God and His Messenger
7:43
So We hastened the punishments for them for their evil gain
7:48
This is their disbelief in God and His signs
7:51
Are the people of the villages safe from our punishment coming to them overnight while they are sleeping?
8:03
Do you believe, O Muhammad, the people of the villages that deny God and His Messenger?
8:08
Our punishment comes to them at night while they are asleep
8:12
They will follow the path of their ancestors among the lying nations
8:16
Are the people of the villages safe that our sacrifice will come to them while they are playing?
8:25
Are the people of the villages safe from our punishment coming to them during the day at noon, while they are heedless and negligent?
8:34
Do they believe in God’s deception? No one will be safe from God’s deception except the people who are losers
8:46
O Muhammad, are those who deny God and His Messenger safe?
8:52
God lured them with the health and prosperity He bestowed upon them
8:58
It is not safe for this to be a lure along with their position on their disbelief, except for the people who are perishing
9:06
Has He not given guidance to those who inherit the earth from some of its people that if We had willed, We could have afflicted them with their sins?
9:20
We seal their hearts so they do not listen
9:26
Did it not come to those who were succeeded in the land after the destruction of others before them?
9:33
So they did their deeds. If we wished, we could have done to them as we did to those before them and destroyed them for their sins
9:43
We seal their hearts, for they do not listen to an admonition or a reminder that is beneficial to them
9:51
These villages will give you some of their cities
9:58
Their messengers had come to them with clear proofs, but they would not believe in what they had denied before
10:14
Thus God seals the hearts of the unbelievers
10:20
These are the villages whose affairs and the affairs of their people I mentioned to you, O Muhammad
10:27
To learn that we support Our Messengers and those who believe in this worldly life
10:33
And let those who deny you know the outcome of someone who lies to God’s messengers
10:38
The people of the villages sent their messengers with clear arguments
10:42
They would not have believed when the messengers came
10:46
Because of what God knows above, they are lying
10:50
The day He brought them out from the loins of Adam, peace be upon him
10:54
God also set a seal on the hearts of those who disbelieved in their Lord
10:59
Thus God seals the hearts of the unbelievers
11:03
Those who were decreed that they would never believe
11:08
We found no covenant for most of them
11:13
And if we find most of them to be sinners
11:18
We did not find most of the people of these villages that we destroyed, O Muhammad
11:25
In fulfillment of what we have commanded them
11:28
From the monotheism of God and following His messengers
11:31
We found most of them to be disobedient and disobedient to their Lord
11:36
Leaving his covenant and his will
11:39
Then We sent Moses from among them with Our signs to Pharaoh and his chiefs
11:50
To Pharaoh and his chiefs, but they were wronged by it
11:55
So look at what was the outcome of the corruptors
12:01
Then We sent some of them: Noah, Hud, Salih, Lot, and Shuaib
12:07
Musa bin Imran with our arguments and evidence
12:11
To Pharaoh and Pharaoh's group of men
12:15
So they disbelieved in it
12:16
Because disbelief places God’s verses in a wrong place
12:21
So look, O Muhammad, with the eyes of your heart
12:24
What was the outcome of those who made corruption on earth?
12:28
It means Pharaoh and his entourage
12:31
Their consequence was that they were all drowned
12:36
Moses said, “O Pharaoh, I am a messenger from the Lord of the worlds.”
12:44
And Moses said to Pharaoh
12:47
O Pharaoh, I am a messenger from the Lord of the worlds
12:51
It is true that I say nothing about God except the truth
12:58
I have come to you with clear proof from your Lord
13:03
So send the children of Israel with me
13:08
He said: If you have come with a sign, then bring it if you are truthful
13:21
I am careful not to say anything but the truth
13:26
I have come to you with proof from your Lord
13:29
O people, bear witness to the truth of what I say
13:33
So, O Pharaoh, send the children of Israel with me
13:36
Pharaoh said to him
13:39
If you come with an argument and a sign that bears witness to the truth of what you say
13:44
Bring it if you are truthful
13:49
So he threw his stick and it was the snake of the two prophets
13:56
He removed his hand and it was white to the onlookers
14:03
So Moses threw his staff, and it was alive. It would become clear to anyone who saw it that it was alive
14:11
He took his hand out of his pocket and found it white, without leprosy, waving to the onlookers
14:18
The leaders of Pharaoh’s people said, “This is a knowledgeable magician.”
14:26
The group of men from Pharaoh’s people said that Moses, may God’s prayers be upon him, was a magician who knew magic
14:36
He takes people's eyes by deceiving them until they think he is pure and white
14:45
We want him to expel you from your land, so what do you command?
14:55
He wants to expel you from your land, and Pharaoh said to the crowds
15:02
So what do you command us to do about it?
15:07
They said, “Send him and his brother back and send them to Al-Mada’in.”
15:14
They will bring you every knowledgeable magician
15:17
The chiefs of Pharaoh's people said to Pharaoh, "Delay it, and send in the cities someone who will gather the magicians and gather them to you. They will gather every knowledgeable magician."
15:31
And the magicians came to Pharaoh and said, “Indeed, we will have a reward if we are the victors.”
15:46
And the magicians came to Pharaoh and said, “Indeed, we will have a reward for defeating Moses with you, if we, O Pharaoh, were the victors.”
15:59
He said: Yes, and you are among those close to me
16:05
Pharaoh said to the magicians when they said to him, “Indeed, we will have a reward from you if we defeat Moses.” He said, “Yes, that is for you, and you are among those closest to him and closest to me.”
16:21
They said, “O Moses, either you will throw or we will be the ones who will throw.”
16:30
They said, “O Moses, choose to throw your stick or we will throw our stick.”
16:39
He said: They cast, and when they cast, they bewitched the people's eyes and terrified them, and they used great magic
16:54
Moses said, “Throw what you throw.” So the magicians threw what they had. When they threw that, it seemed to the people’s eyes that they were striving.
17:08
They terrified people with what they bewitched in their eyes to the point that they were afraid of sticks and ropes, thinking they were snakes, and they came up with a great and great imagination.
17:21
