00:49 The series of Quran-e-Hakeem is being read in five parts.

00:56 The series is based on the strong connection with Quran-e-Hakeem.

01:01 On the other hand, the message of Quran-e-Hakeem is clear.

14:58 (Recitation of Surah Al-Hadeed)

15:06 (Recitation of Surah Al-Hadeed)

15:34 (Recitation of Surah Al-Hadeed)

16:03 There is a beautiful couplet that someone said

16:06 (Recitation of Surah Al-Hadeed)

16:21 (Recitation of Surah Al-Hadeed)

16:39 (Recitation of Surah Al-Hadeed)

16:54 (Recitation of Surah Al-Hadeed)

17:19 It is a beautiful thing and the Prophet of Allah came to make it easy

17:24 So let's understand this verse with the words of the Prophet's prayer

17:31 This is mentioned in Sahih Muslim Sharif

17:34 (Recitation of Surah Al-Hadeed)

18:02 (Recitation of Surah Al-Hadeed)

18:21 In these words, it is easy for us to understand

18:24 With the four attributes of Allah

18:29 The rest of the difficult discussions will be seen in the commentary

18:32 And then we will try to learn

18:35 After this, I will tell you one more thing

18:37 In the previous verse, the words of the Prophet were

18:41 Now what happened

18:42 (Recitation of Surah Al-Hadeed)

18:44 A very important point

18:46 We understood the word "Kul"

18:48 That the word "Kul" is a matter of protection for us

18:51 Allah is much higher than our understanding

18:54 Yes, Allah is introduced

18:57 Through His attributes, signs of His power

19:00 Through the vision of His power

19:02 But Allah's attributes are not as they are

19:07 So the word "Kul" is a matter of protection for us

19:10 Allah is capable of everything

19:13 How capable is Allah?

19:14 We cannot evaluate

19:16 Allah is capable of everything

19:18 Allah has a lot of knowledge

19:20 How much knowledge is there?

19:21 We cannot count

19:23 Allah is the one who has knowledge of everything

19:26 The word "Kul" is a matter of protection for us

19:29 In the context of understanding the attributes of Allah

19:33 The second point

19:34 The word "Kul" is mentioned in the Holy Quran again and again

19:37 With these two attributes

19:39 (Recitation of Holy Quran)

19:43 Allah has power over everything

19:45 Allah knows everything

19:47 Why?

19:48 Most people have a question in their minds

19:51 After death, life again

19:53 We will be scattered

19:54 We will be reborn

19:56 Allah is capable of everything

19:58 Our deeds will be on record

20:01 Our thoughts will be on record

20:03 Our thoughts and intentions will be on record

20:05 Allah has knowledge of everything

20:07 After death, life again

20:10 Our deeds will be on record

20:12 People have doubts about these two

20:16 And according to these two

20:18 The word "Kul" is mentioned in the Holy Quran again and again

20:25 This is the complete statement of Ayat-e-Mateen

20:27 Keep in mind

20:28 The requirements of Allah's religion are coming

20:30 But first, the introduction of Allah is coming

20:32 There is an invitation card in the world

20:35 Nowadays, it is available on social media, email and through means

20:40 If you want, you can go

20:41 If you don't want, you can't go

20:42 If you want, you can accept the invitation

20:44 If you are in a mood, you can't go

20:46 There will be no doomsday

20:48 The invitation of Allah

20:50 The requirements of Allah

20:52 If you want, you can do

20:54 If you don't want, you can't do

20:55 This is not such an issue

20:56 You have to do it

20:57 You have to act

20:58 Whose requirements?

20:59 These are not the requirements of any human

21:02 These are the requirements of the Lord of the worlds

21:04 The requirements of the Creator of the Universe

21:06 The introduction of that Lord of the worlds first

21:08 And then the mention of the requirements from Ayat-e-Saat

21:11 We will keep it in front of you later

21:13 Inshallah

21:14 The first Ayat is from Surah Hadith Ayat 4

21:17 (Arabic)

21:21 He is the One who created the heavens and the earth in six days

21:24 (Arabic)

21:26 Then He was established on the Throne

21:29 (Arabic)

21:33 He knows what enters the earth and what comes out of it

21:37 (Arabic)

21:42 And what descends from the sky and what ascends to it

21:45 (Arabic)

21:48 And He is with you wherever you are

21:51 (Arabic)

21:53 And Allah sees whatever you do

21:57 This is Ayat 4 of Surah Hadith

21:59 Then more signs of the power of Allah

22:02 And the mention of the attributes of Allah

22:05 Let's explain this Ayat

22:07 First thing

22:08 We are not aware of the reality of six days

22:11 It is mentioned repeatedly in the Holy Quran

22:13 Allah created the heavens and the earth in six days

22:16 In the initial verses of Surah Hami

22:20 It is mentioned in detail of six days

22:25 That the earth is created in four days

22:28 The food is determined

22:30 The heavens are created in two days

22:32 This is a small clarification

22:35 But what is the reality of six days

22:39 Is it the six days of 24 hours?

22:42 No

22:43 We have not reached the reality yet

22:46 Next point

22:47 The Creator of the universe is Allah

22:50 And the ruler is Allah

22:53 Allah said

22:54 (Arabic)

22:56 Allah is ruling over the universe

22:59 Allah is deciding the day and night

23:02 Yes, we have said a little before

23:05 That He has given the people the power to decide

23:08 Otherwise, Allah is the ruler

23:10 He is the Creator, the Owner, the Provider

23:15 He is the Protector and the Ruler

23:18 The point is

23:20 Allah's command should be followed

23:23 In the affairs of the people

23:26 Allah's command is to be followed

23:28 He is the ruler of the universe

23:30 His commands are being followed

23:32 When Allah's command is being followed

23:34 He should follow his own commands

23:36 He should follow his own rules

23:38 He should follow his own rules

23:40 He should follow his own rules

23:42 And follow his own commands

23:44 Then

23:45 Allah's attributes of knowledge have been mentioned

23:48 (Arabic)

23:50 Allah's attributes of knowledge have been mentioned

23:52 (Arabic)

23:54 Allah's attributes of knowledge have been mentioned

23:56 (Arabic)

23:58 Many things can be mentioned

24:00 For example

24:01 The seed that grows in the ground

24:03 The appearance of a plant

24:05 The rain that falls from the sky

24:07 The prayers of the people

24:09 The deeds of the people

24:11 The appearance of the souls

24:13 These are just a few examples

24:14 All of these are the knowledge of Allah

24:16 Allah knows the macro level

24:18 And Allah knows the micro level

24:21 And listen

24:22 (Arabic)

24:24 And Allah is with you wherever you are

24:27 Allah is aware of each person

24:31 His inner and outer self

24:34 And the words of Allah are with you

24:37 So there are two aspects of being with Allah

24:40 There are two aspects of being with Allah

24:42 One is being with Allah in general

24:45 And the other is being with Allah in private

24:47 Allah's eyes are on everyone

24:50 All creatures are living

24:52 By the command of Allah

24:54 Allah is with them

24:55 They are breathing by the command of Allah

24:57 Their organs are moving by the command of Allah

24:59 And the other is Allah's special presence

25:02 Like in Surah Al-Baqarah, Ayat 153

25:05 We read in the fifth part

25:06 (Arabic)

25:08 Allah is with those who are patient

25:10 And the last point is

25:12 Allah is seeing himself

25:15 Who is doing what

25:17 Subhanallah

25:18 Allah is seeing everyone himself

25:20 This is mentioned in the Quran

25:22 That the names of deeds will be presented

25:24 The writers are writing

25:26 Your organs will testify

25:28 The earth will testify

25:30 This is for the sake of proof

25:32 So that if someone lies, his deeds will be revealed

25:35 Otherwise Allah sees you and me

25:38 And knows the hearts

25:41 He is aware of the secrets of the hearts

25:43 We will take a break

25:44 After that we will discuss two more verses

25:46 And we will continue the study

25:48 (Arabic)

25:53 We welcome you

25:54 We have started the study of Surah Hadid

25:56 And we will continue the discussion

25:58 The next verse is Surah Hadid, Ayat 5

26:01 (Arabic)

26:17 This is Ayat 5

26:18 And you are noticing

26:19 (Arabic)

26:22 These words are mentioned in Ayat 2

26:24 And they are repeated

26:26 There is a lot of wisdom in this

26:28 Let's discuss this

26:30 First point

26:32 Most people consider Allah as the creator

26:35 But they are not ready to obey his orders

26:40 This is the problem

26:42 We consider Allah as the creator

26:44 But his worship is required 24/7

26:48 Allah's command is given on this body

26:50 Allah's command is given in my house

26:52 Allah's command is given in the society

26:54 Allah's command is given on the state

26:56 Allah's worship is required 24/7

26:58 Allah's worship is required in the house, mosque, market, on the occasion of happiness and on the occasion of sorrow

27:04 Allah's worship is required in the parliament

27:08 Allah's worship is required in the state

27:10 Allah's worship is required in the social life

27:12 Our world view is

27:14 Most people consider Allah as the creator

27:17 But they are not ready to obey his orders

27:21 And they are not ready to obey his commands

27:25 Quran mentions this 3 times

27:27 Surah Yusuf ayat 40

27:29 Surah Yusuf ayat 67

27:31 Surah Naam ayat 57

27:33 (Arabic)

27:35 Allah has the authority to decide

27:37 (Arabic)

27:44 This concept is out of our minds

27:47 We understood this in Surah Hujurat ayat 1

27:50 (Arabic)

27:55 O believers! Do not put your affairs before Allah and his messenger

28:01 What does this mean?

28:02 Put yourself down in all affairs of life

28:05 Follow the commands of Allah and his messenger

28:08 We understood this

28:10 Today Allah is not considered as a king

28:13 Allah is not considered as a ruler

28:16 There are some people who worship Allah in private

28:20 But most of them are not even concerned about their private affairs

28:24 And as for the social life

28:26 The religion that was born from the country

28:29 Is now a poor country

28:33 This is the concept that Allah gives us

28:37 You will remember this

28:39 We studied Surah Yusuf ayat 40

28:42 And we discussed the mission of the Prophet

28:45 In detail

28:46 And we found this in Surah Saf ayat 9

28:49 (Arabic)

28:51 What was the mission of the Prophet?

28:53 To make the religion of Allah prevail over the system of life

28:57 (Arabic)

29:00 This is the belief of the Muslim Ummah

29:02 In Surah Shura ayat 13

29:06 (Arabic)

29:09 Do your best to establish the religion of Allah

29:12 And do not be involved in this

29:14 (Arabic)

29:17 We have mentioned this twice in these six verses

29:20 We have read this in Surah 2 and 5

29:23 For Allah is the kingdom of heaven and earth

29:26 This is a sign that the Ummah should be awake

29:29 And should not be heedless

29:31 And should try to do their best to follow the laws of Allah

29:36 As a Muslim Ummah

29:39 Today this responsibility is on our shoulders

29:41 May Allah give us the opportunity to do this

29:43 Next point

29:44 The concept of Allah's government

29:46 Has been removed from the minds of Muslims

29:49 Today Muslims are following the wrong ideas

29:51 The wrong ideologies

29:52 The wrong concepts

29:54 And the wrong systems of government

29:56 Allah has given us the system of Khilafat

29:59 The system of justice

30:01 We were given the responsibility of Khilafat

30:04 And Allah sent us to the earth as representatives

30:07 We came to be victorious, not to be defeated

30:09 We were created to lead the world

30:12 Not to be defeated by the world

30:14 This is our wrong concept

30:16 So today the concept of Allah's government

30:18 Has been removed from our minds

30:20 In the mosque, at the time of prayer

30:23 At the time of Adhan, at the time of Iqamat

30:25 At the time of Ruku Sujood

30:27 The Takbeer of Allah should be elevated in the society

30:30 Allah should be considered great

30:32 And his greatness should be fulfilled

30:34 In the society, in business, in livelihood

30:36 In justice, in politics

30:38 And in the affairs of the state

30:40 Allah's Prophet said

30:43 In the beginning of Surah Mudassir

30:45 "And glorify your Lord"

30:47 "And exalt your Lord"

30:49 At the end of Surah Bani Israel

30:51 "And glorify your Lord"

30:53 "And exalt your Lord"

30:55 As it is the right to exalt

30:57 So the Prophet also said

30:59 "Allah is the Greatest"

31:01 And the Prophet (PBUH)

31:03 Implemented the greatness

31:05 Through the efforts of 23 years

31:07 This concept has been removed from the minds of Muslims

31:11 Allah said at the end of this verse

31:13 "And all matters are returned to Allah"

31:19 Allah has given you the power

31:21 Where are you using this power?

31:23 In obedience to Allah or disobedience to Allah?

31:26 Which thoughts are you spreading in the society?

31:29 Good thoughts or bad thoughts?

31:31 Everyone is giving Dawah

31:33 Everyone is doing promotion

31:35 Advertisement

31:37 What do you think?

31:39 Everyone is forwarding something

31:41 What have you been forwarding?

31:43 And people let their systems be established

31:45 People let them support false systems

31:49 Did you make a sacrifice for Allah's religion?

31:52 Did you sacrifice your life for it?

31:54 Allah will ask

31:56 "And all matters are returned to Allah"

32:00 We have to answer tomorrow

32:02 We have to prove Allah's servitude

32:04 And the Prophet (PBUH)

32:06 Also has a duty to us

32:08 May Allah enable us to fulfill these responsibilities

32:12 The next verse is from Surah Hadith

32:14 Verse number 6

32:16 And this is the last verse from today's lesson

32:18 It is said at this point

32:20 "He enters the night in the day"

32:24 "And he enters the day in the night"

32:28 "And he is aware of the secrets in the breasts"

32:31 "And he is aware of the secrets in the breasts"

32:34 This is verse number 6 from Surah Hadith

32:36 And Allah's attributes are being mentioned at this point

32:40 First thing

32:41 The system of night and day is not running by itself

32:44 Rather, it is in the control of Allah

32:46 Who is the one who runs the system?

32:48 Allah (SWT)

32:49 It is also clear from this

32:51 That the creation is under His command

32:53 The control is of Allah (SWT)

32:55 There is a famous dialogue of Nimrod

32:57 Which is quoted in the Holy Quran

32:59 When he was talking to Ibrahim (AS)

33:01 He claimed that he also has the power

33:03 And can give life to anyone he wants

33:05 It is a famous incident

33:07 He got a sinner hanged and a criminal released

33:09 He said, "I have the power"

33:11 Ibrahim (AS) could have answered this

33:13 But the evidence of Tawheed is not less

33:15 He said, "My Lord takes out the sun from the east"

33:19 "So take it out from the west and show it to me"

33:21 "And the disbeliever was amazed and amazed"

33:25 "And the one whom he disbelieved"

33:27 So the signs of Allah are mentioned in the Holy Quran

33:31 The signs of Allah's power are present everywhere

33:35 Allah (SWT) is giving the command

33:37 "Consider him great"

33:39 "Consider him great, the one who runs the whole universe"

33:41 "And follow his commandments"

33:43 "And strive to fulfill his commandments"

33:47 The power is of Allah (SWT)

33:49 So the one whose command is in this whole universe

33:53 In the sun, the moon, the stars, the day, the night

33:55 In the sea, in the desert, in the dry land, in the earth, in the sky

33:59 In all the worlds, the command of that Lord of the worlds is being issued

34:03 So the command is being issued on the earth

34:05 "And strive to fulfill his commandments"

34:07 "And strive to fulfill his commandments"

34:09 So the first thing that came in this Holy Quran

34:11 That he enters the night into the day

34:13 And he enters the day into the night

34:15 The signs of day and night are also the great signs of Allah

34:19 It is a invitation for those who think deeply in the day

34:21 It is a means of thinking deeply

34:23 The next point that came

34:25 "And he is the Knower of the hearts"

34:27 "And he is aware of the secrets that are in the hearts"

34:30 The third time Allah's attribute of knowledge has been emphasized

34:35 Allah knows that whatever goes into the earth, whatever comes out of the earth

34:38 Whatever comes down from the sky, whatever goes up to the sky

34:40 These are the knowledge of Allah

34:42 Whatever you do, these are the knowledge of Allah

34:44 These were the external matters, now the internal matters have come

34:47 Allah is aware of the secrets and the secrets of the hearts

34:50 Our actions, our words, even our intentions are the knowledge of Allah

34:57 Allah's greatness is being stated

34:59 Now you feel Allah's greatness or not?

35:01 Do you feel it or not? Do you accept it or not?

35:03 Do you believe it or not? Allah knows

35:05 And if you believe it, do you try to fulfill Allah's greatness or not?

35:09 Do you try to bow down to Allah or not?

35:12 And do you try to fulfill Allah's commandments or not?

35:16 Allah is well aware

35:18 And as for the internal matters, remember that the actions are of the external parts

35:22 The actions are of the tongue and the actions are of the internal parts of the heart

35:26 Yes, the Holy Quran says in the last verse of Surah Al-Baqarah

35:30 "And to Allah belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth"

35:33 "And if you reveal that which is in yourselves, or conceal it, Allah will judge you"

35:39 "For Allah is everything in the heavens and the earth"

35:42 "And if you reveal that which is in yourselves, or conceal it, Allah will judge you"

35:48 "For Allah is everything in the heavens and the earth"

35:50 We all know that the actions are of the internal parts

35:52 "Indeed, all actions are by intention"

35:54 The acceptance of actions is based on intentions

35:56 If the intention is right, then you will be rewarded

35:58 If the intention is wrong, then you will not be rewarded

36:00 The same is true for the actions

36:01 Arrogance is in the internal parts

36:02 Jealousy is in the internal parts

36:03 Envy is in the internal parts

36:04 The love of the world is in the internal parts

36:06 Do you understand?

36:07 The actions of the internal parts are also the knowledge of Allah

36:10 If the internal parts are right, then the external parts will also be right

36:12 It is mentioned in the Hadeeth

36:14 There is a stick in the body of a person

36:16 "If it is right, then the whole body will be right"

36:21 "And if it is corrupt, then the whole body will be corrupt"

36:24 And if there is corruption in it, then the whole body will be the victim of corruption

36:28 May Allah enable us to correct the internal and external parts

36:32 Dear viewers, this is the complete statement of six verses

36:36 Allah's greatness

36:37 Everything in the universe is glorifying Him

36:39 He is the King of the earth and the sky

36:41 He is the first, the last, the apparent and the inner

36:44 Everything that is going in the earth, everything that is coming out of the sky, everything that is going up in the sky, all of this is the knowledge of Allah
