Surah Yunus, page 209

Updated: May 1

Allah says

  إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ لَا يَرۡجُونَ لِقَآءَنَا وَرَضُواْ بِٱلۡحَيَوٰةِ ٱلدُّنۡيَا وَٱطۡمَأَنُّواْ بِهَا وَٱلَّذِينَ هُمۡ عَنۡ ءَايَٰتِنَا غَٰفِلُونَ (7)

Indeed, those who do not hope to meet Us and are satisfied with the life of this world, and they were reassured by it, And those who are heedless of Our signs (7)

(Indeed, those who do not hope to meet Us) do not aspire to meet God, which is the greatest of what the greedy aspire to, and the highest of what the hopeful have hoped for. (And they are satisfied with the life of this world) instead of the Hereafter.

(And be assured of it)

That is: they relied on it, and made it the goal of their goals and the end of their purpose, as if they were created to stay in it, as if it were not a place of passage, where the traveler supplies for the country of residence, so they do not benefit from the verses of the Qur’an, nor from the signs on the horizon and the soul.

A view of the verse

Why don't we want to meet God? Is it because our work is bad or because we are not accustomed to meeting him in this world? In our world, we like to meet people and we do not like to meet others based on our personal experiences or the experiences of others towards them, It seems that the matter is related to two things. We did not talk privately with God late at night, nor did we look at the sky and talk to Him alone in distress, We did not rely on Him (the right of trust) and we forgot the reasons while adopting them, and therefore we do not know Him, so why should we meet Him? As the common people say (what we know is better than what we do not know), we have known the world and been preoccupied with its sweetness, so why should we leave it to someone with whom we have no relationship?

And be reassured by it

Reassurance comes when fear is removed from the heart, and comfort, calm, and all ease seep in whoever reaches this stage, the signs of God will inevitably pass by him while he is unaware, This is a verse: (God exists) and the result is heedless, the truth in this religion and the result is: heedless, and so on.


Allah says

 أُوْلَٰٓئِكَ مَأۡوَىٰهُمُ ٱلنَّارُ بِمَا كَانُواْ يَكۡسِبُونَ (8)

Those are their refuge - the Fire, because of what they used to earn (8)


it is the loyalty of their headquarters and abode from which they do not leave (it is Hell) because of disbelief and polytheism. And types of sins.

A view of the verse

Shelter is the place where you go to rest and relieve the pain of beautifying yourself in front of people, so imagine the place where you seek comfort is fire, May God protect you and protect us - why all this? Just because we loved the world with all our heart and did not want to meet God, is this all our fault? the truth is that we are descending to this world from Paradise for a temporary period, and we have deemed it permissible to sit still, just as you would visit a friend and want or decide to live with him, Is this possible? If he (death) does not expel you, you will not have peace of mind. It is not your place, nor your place of comfort, and you will not take all your rights in it, If you take away all your rights, something will be detracted from you. You will not find a believer except in lack, humiliation, or illness, one is dead and one is living and we say this is life and this is the minority or a mistake you make and you will suffer humiliation or illness - may God protect you - or at the very least, you see others suffering. If you feel your pain and problems, then you are alive. But if you feel the pain of others, then you are alive to humanity.


Allah says

 إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ وَعَمِلُواْ ٱلصَّٰلِحَٰتِ يَهۡدِيهِمۡ رَبُّهُم بِإِيمَٰنِهِمۡۖ تَجۡرِي مِن تَحۡتِهِمُ ٱلۡأَنۡهَٰرُ فِي جَنَّٰتِ ٱلنَّعِيمِ (9)

God Almighty says (Indeed, those who believe and do righteous deeds) meaning: They combine faith and performing according to it and what it requires of good deeds, including the deeds of the hearts and the deeds of the limbs, in a manner of sincerity and follow-up

(Their Lord guides them through their faith)

Because of their faith, God rewards them with the greatest reward, which is guidance, so He teaches them what will benefit them, and blesses them with deeds that result from guidance, He guides them to consider His verses, and He guides them in this abode to the straight path and on the straight path, and in the abode of recompense to the path that leads to the gardens of bliss, As for (greeting them) among themselves when they meet and visit, it is peace, that is: speech free from idle talk and sin, described as (peace), and it has been said in the interpretation of his saying. (Their supplication therein is, Glory be to You) until the end of the verse, that the people of Paradise - if they need food and drink and the like - say, Glory be to You, O God, so bring it to them immediately.

A view of the verse

One of the characteristics of the Qur’an is the reminder of the consequences. When you mention the consequences, you treat both parties with complete impartiality regarding their fate and outcome.

Here (those who believe and do good deeds). What is strange is that the previous verses talk about lovers of the world who are content with it. This is the opposite (belief in one God above all + doing good deeds) By God, it is an easy equation in theory, and very complex in practice. The sentence (they did good deeds) has permanence, as it is not a single action and the matter is over, Like loving animals and feeding them and that's it, no, no, it's a way of life from one job that ends to another that begins... Whose life was like this, what was their fate?


Allah says

 دَعۡوَىٰهُمۡ فِيهَا سُبۡحَٰنَكَ ٱللَّهُمَّ وَتَحِيَّتُهُمۡ فِيهَا سَلَٰمٞۚ وَءَاخِرُ دَعۡوَىٰهُمۡ أَنِ ٱلۡحَمۡدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ ٱلۡعَٰلَمِينَ (10) 

Their supplication in it is Glory be to You, O God, and their greeting in it is peace, And the last of their claim is that: Praise be to God, Lord of the Worlds (10)

That is, their worship of God, the beginning of which is glorification of God and distancing Him from contradictions, and the end of which is praise of God. The costs are waived from them in the abode of reward, but what remains for them is the most complete pleasures, What is more delicious to them than delicious food is the remembrance of God, by which hearts are reassured and souls rejoice, and it is to them as the breath is, without cost and hardship.

As for (greeting them) among themselves when they meet and visit, it is peace, that is: speech free from idle talk and sin, described as (peace), and it has been said in the interpretation of his saying, (Their supplication therein is Glory be to You) until the end of the verse, that the people of Paradise - if they need food and drink and the like - say, Glory be to You, O God, So bring them immediately. When they finished, they said: (Praise be to God, Lord of the worlds).

A view on the verse

This is Paradise, which is the shelter of believers who do good deeds as a perpetual and way of life, In general, I prayed for them not to ask for livelihood, such as having children, money, etc., but instead, I prayed for them (Glory be to You, O God) They are inspired with praise and praise. All their needs are answered. There are no prohibitions or needs. Greetings are given to them (peace be upon them). Are you prominent in your community?

Or are you in a delicate situation?

There are people who greet you with the greatest greetings (royal, military, etc.) and there are simple people who, if they were seen, would not be aware of their presence in the first place, No one respects them or greets them, there is a greeting of peace for them, and there are people who lived in conflicts, armed conflicts, poverty, famines, and other crises of this worldly life, they will have a special greeting in Paradise (the greeting of peace), and there and there. If you are alive, you will be greeted with a greeting and a welcome, so thank God, even if you are among the righteous, so wait for the best greetings you have received throughout your life, and if you are one of the simple people, remember that your greeting is the greeting of angels calling for psychological and external peace for you, not only from wars, but from afflictions, defects, and other things.

And another that their case Praise be to Allah

We are persistent servants, and we have a broad supplication: that is, a supplication on the same subject, perhaps for years, until God - the Almighty - responds, They, that is, the people of Paradise: for them is glorification and praise, and the last thing they pray for is (Praise be to God, Lord of the Worlds). Adversity is over, problems are over, so praise is the master of the situation.

۞وَلَوۡ يُعَجِّلُ ٱللَّهُ لِلنَّاسِ ٱلشَّرَّ ٱسۡتِعۡجَالَهُم بِٱلۡخَيۡرِ لَقُضِيَ إِلَيۡهِمۡ أَجَلُهُمۡۖ فَنَذَرُ ٱلَّذِينَ لَا يَرۡجُونَ لِقَآءَنَا فِي طُغۡيَٰنِهِمۡ يَعۡمَهُونَ (11)

If only God would hasten evil for people Hurry to bring them goodness, so their time has been fulfilled, so We warn those who do not hope to meet Us and become blind in their transgression (11)

This is part of His kindness and benevolence towards His servants, that if evil were to hasten upon them if they brought forth its causes, and He hastened to punish them for that, just as He hastened upon them goodness if they brought forth its causes (then their term would have been fulfilled.) And those who do not believe in the Hereafter, therefore they do not prepare for it, and they do not know what will save them from the punishment of God, (in their transgression), meaning: their falsehood, by which they exceeded the truth and the limit, (They are blinded) they hesitate and are confused, they are not guided to the path, and they are not guided by the most upright guide, and that is a punishment for them for their injustice and disbelief in the verses of God.

A view of the verse

There are people we have seen in life who pray for their money, and pray for their children, and perhaps for their entire lives, on a personal level, I used to hear about a mother calling every one of her children bad supplications, and all of them were fulfilled, due to the children being naughty or something similar, and there are people who wish the child would be blessed, no matter what crises you are going through, do not pray against yourself, your money, or your entire life, as this is forbidden in Islam, or you pray for death due to the hardship you faced in life, here in this verse: God - the Almighty - People's view of things will be corrected if God hastens the response to evil's prayers of death, destruction, or something else, with the same speed with which people rush into good things (they would all have died and the term would have come to them) so we warn those who do not hope to meet Us to become blind in their transgression, God - the Almighty - and Himself forsakes those who do that and blames and reproaches again in the same aspect of the Qur’an. (Those who do not hope to meet Us) are tyranny: and tyranny: is the increase in the matter to the point of tyranny, In this tyranny (they become Ya'mahoon), Al Amah is not blindness. Al - Amah is for the eye and blindness is for the heart. The heart has insight and vision that the eye does not see.

Allah says

 وَإِذَا مَسَّ ٱلۡإِنسَٰنَ ٱلضُّرُّ دَعَانَا لِجَنۢبِهِۦٓ أَوۡ قَاعِدًا أَوۡ قَآئِمٗا فَلَمَّا كَشَفۡنَا عَنۡهُ ضُرَّهُۥ مَرَّ كَأَن لَّمۡ يَدۡعُنَآ إِلَىٰ ضُرّٖ مَّسَّهُۥۚ كَذَٰلِكَ زُيِّنَ لِلۡمُسۡرِفِينَ مَا كَانُواْ يَعۡمَلُونَ (12) 

And when harm befalls a person, he calls us to his side, or sitting, or standing, then when We uncovered him, he was harmed, and he passed away as if he had never left Us to harm him, He touched him. thus was made pleasing to the transgressors what they used to do (12)

A view around the verse

And if he touches: And touching is like being stung by fire. You are making a cup of tea and you are stung by the fire. This is just touching, and it has a reflex reaction at the same moment, so you move your hand away. As for the case of harm, (Diseases and problems of life) A person is immersed in God’s blessings, and any problem that looms on the horizon begins to find him praying in all circumstances, He is lying on his side, sitting, or standing, a lot of supplication, and perhaps it will be answered, and this is a blessing. He forgets the one who bestowed the blessing and is happy with the blessing, He turns his back to God - the Almighty - as if he had never called on him before to remove this affliction from him, which is extremely bad manners, and imagine yourself doing it with your boss at work, you insist on increasing your salary, for example, and you cheat for that, and when your salary increases the next day, you buy the car, the one who wants to show off in front of him and does not say a single word of thanks to him. Is this polite?

Likewise, what they used to do has been made pleasing to the extravagant

Zeinh: We agree that things do not originally have decorations. Rather, we are the ones who decorate the house with decorations after it was on the red bricks, as we decorate the bride and so on, God Almighty explains to you that this is extravagance, extravagance in what? Extravagance in lack of taste and lack of manners with God - Glory be to Him -

Allah says

وَلَقَدۡ أَهۡلَكۡنَا ٱلۡقُرُونَ مِن قَبۡلِكُمۡ لَمَّا ظَلَمُواْ وَجَآءَتۡهُمۡ رُسُلُهُم بِٱلۡبَيِّنَٰتِ وَمَا كَانُواْ لِيُؤۡمِنُواْۚ كَذَٰلِكَ نَجۡزِي ٱلۡقَوۡمَ ٱلۡمُجۡرِمِينَ (13) 

And We certainly destroyed the generations before you when they were wronged, And their messengers came to them with clear proofs, but they would not have believed. Thus do We recompense the guilty people. (13)

God Almighty tells us that He destroyed the nations of the past due to their injustice and disbelief, after clear evidence had come to them at the hands of the messengers and the truth had become clear, but they did not submit to it and did not believe, He bestowed upon them His punishment, which cannot be warded off from every criminal who dares to transgress God’s prohibitions, and this is his practice in all nations, (There will be successors on earth after them, that We may see how you do.) If you consider and take advice from those before you, and follow the si

gns of God, and believe in His messengers, you will be saved in this world and the hereafter.

A view of the verse

We destroyed the centuries before you

My brother, it is not wombs that are paid and the earth swallows any life and death. The matter is over and it is the sunah of life. The matter involves doing good deeds. You are safe, The opposite of that and reassurance of the world in which there is destruction, even after a while, and death destroys everything that came before it, and these are not some individual cases, but rather centuries before us.

When they were wronged

Injustice is darkness on the Day of Resurrection. We memorize this well. Something else is possible!!! Injustice is deadly, I understand about God - the Almighty, But I am a Muslim, and God will not destroy me because I have a card in which I claim to be Islam, even if I were a Muslim, and if I were the greatest person, doing good deeds would be unfair with it, Injustice is destructive, and deadly, and you are free to make your choices


Thus We reward the criminal people

Their messengers came to them with clear proofs, but they disbelieved in them, so God Almighty called them (criminals). And the criminal, according to people’s custom, is one who deviates from the law, To oppress yourself by staying away from God’s path on the pretext that everyone is like this is not justified, and to oppress others on the pretext that they have harassed you is not justifiable, for you are a criminal in the eyes of God - Glory be to Him.


Allah says

ثُمَّ جَعَلۡنَٰكُمۡ خَلَٰٓئِفَ فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِ مِنۢ بَعۡدِهِمۡ لِنَنظُرَ كَيۡفَ تَعۡمَلُونَ (14)

Then We made you successors in the earth after them, that We may see how you do. (14)

) O those who are being addressed (caliphs on earth after them that We may see how you do), then if you consider and learn from those before you and follow the signs of God and believe in His messengers, you will be saved in this world and the hereafter, and if you do what the wrongdoers did before you, then what was made permissible for them will be permissible for you, and whoever is warned will be excused.

A view of the verse
Then We made you successors on earth after them

You, yes you and I, we are successors to our ancestors and something will happen to us like what happened to others, and see, why did we leave behind houses, perhaps, real estate, cars, and other amenities of life? Didn’t you buy a used car once? didn't you buy a house where other people lived before you once? Pain and pain? We are caliphs and predecessors for one reason (let us see how you do) Let us do good deeds that are based on two conditions. If one of them is violated, the idea of righteousness will be removed from him,

1 - Loyalty to God. We do not give money to the poor so that someone can see me, and we do not pray while we long for someone to see us...etc.

2 - It must be in accordance with the Qur’an and Sunnah. Do not give illicit money in charity in a mosque, for example, for God is good, Only good people are accepted, although some scholars differ regarding this money laundering, (Perhaps some of your spending on some good causes washes away some of your sins.

and God is superior and knows best .
