[0:14]foreign in our last lesson we covered multiple important points one of

[0:58]them was what should we do when we encounter a passage such

[1:02]as a quranic verse or a narration which seems to be contradicting

[1:11]common sense which seems to be contradicting logic are we supposed to

[1:16]put our intellect behind our backs our backs or the passage behind

[1:23]our backs we said none of the above what we're supposed to

[1:28]do is number one accept the call of the intellect and try

[1:33]to understand what allah is saying in the quran or what allah

[1:40]have said through their traditions because sometimes what happens is we assume

[1:47]that there is a contradiction that the passage holds a contradiction with

[1:54]common sense or logic but the reality is the reality is there

[1:59]is no contradiction all we need to do is actually understand allah

[2:03]properly and understand so long story short we said allah when he

[2:14]speaks in the quran he never contradicts common sense he never contradicts

[2:18]logic so if there is a verse which seems to be presenting

[2:24]a passage um or some sort of statement which contradicts logic we

[2:33]need to look deeper into that verse to understand exactly what allah

[2:39]is saying so for example when i read verses in the quran

[2:45]that seem to be attributing physical properties physical traits to allah obviously

[2:54]doesn't want to tell me that he's physical or material how could

[2:58]he want that when he himself said telling us that there is

[3:04]nothing in this universe nor in existence that resembles him if there

[3:10]is nothing that resembles him that means he is not material he

[3:14]is not physical which means the verses that seem to be attributing

[3:20]physical properties to allah aren't really doing so we might misunderstand those

[3:25]verses but if we look deeply into them and we connect them

[3:31]with other verses in the quran verses which we'll touch upon today

[3:36]in sha allah and we connect these verses with the words of

[3:40]who are the speaking quran will be able to understand what allah

[3:48]actually meant the same applies to what the same applies to the

[3:53]narrations of when there's a narration that is linked to one of

[4:04]the infallibles if that narration seems to be presenting a message which

[4:09]contradicts logic i shouldn't rush in refuting the narration rather i should

[4:17]take my time and look deeply into it connect it to other

[4:20]narrations connected to narrations hopefully i'll be able to understand what meant

[4:30]when they said that word if they actually said it that was

[4:37]one point we mentioned a second point we mentioned was was actually

[4:45]divided into multiple points and that point revolved around adam's so-called disobedience

[4:54]and the command that allah subhanahu wa ta'ala presented to adam when

[4:59]he told him not to approach the tree we said that it's

[5:05]not a maulawi command it was not a malawi man and according

[5:10]to sharif meaning was recommended for adam not to approach the tree

[5:22]and he disobeyed that command hence there was absolutely no sin just

[5:26]as i might disobey the recommended command of allah pertaining to salat

[5:32]alay if i don't pray salah to lame i am not a

[5:38]sinner i haven't sinned although i've disobeyed allah's command according to allam

[5:44]what did we say believes that the command was it wasn't a

[5:51]shady command so what we did last week is we presented multiple

[6:00]proofs supporting the um the opinion of alamo and or sharif in

[6:09]better terms we presented multiple proofs that indicated that the command was

[6:17]not maori one of those proofs was what if you remember it

[6:22]was the verses of surat taha we said allah subhanahu wa'ta'ala mentions

[6:29]the story of adam his story in the gordon and how he

[6:31]approached the tree in three parts of the quran so if you

[6:40]want to actually have a good understanding of what happened you must

[6:45]connect these verses because the verses of the quran are intertwined they're

[6:50]connected so we went to surat there what did we see we

[6:54]saw that allah subhanahu wa'ta'ala told adam to beware from the devil

[7:00]to be cautious and to be aware and he told him that

[7:05]the devil wants to pull him out of that garden why does

[7:10]allah tell him in surah to beware from the devil tells him

[7:14]because if you if if the devil pulls you out of the

[7:19]garden what will happen he says fatashka you will go through fatigue

[7:23]then allah comes forth and describes he describes the gordon of adam

[7:31]telling him that in that garden he does not undergo hunger thirst

[7:39]nakedness or the heat of the sun what does that mean it

[7:48]means he was living in a luxurious garden so here we give

[7:51]an analogy if you remember saying that when adam approach the tree

[7:59]he ultimately accelerated the process of exiting his garden why did we

[8:04]say he accelerated the process of exiting the garden because ultimately he

[8:10]was going to come down he was created for earth and we

[8:15]presented multiple proofs up until now supporting this idea one of them

[8:20]is allah's word in surat al-baqarah so adam alaihissalam was supposed to

[8:26]come down to this world he was supposed to come down to

[8:32]earth which meant that his stay in the garden was a temporary

[8:39]state even if he didn't approach the tree sooner or later allah

[8:43]was going to bring him down so he did what he accelerated

[8:47]the process now adam had what he had two options adoption of

[8:53]remaining in that gordon up until the time elapses or accelerating the

[8:58]process and coming down by coming down adam alaysalam was like a

[9:04]person this is the analogy it was like a person who was

[9:10]told to sit in a five-star hotel for two months or three

[9:15]months before he starts doing business with his co-worker so this person

[9:20]has a co-worker and the co-worker tells him that you know what

[9:24]we're going to start business but for now i want you to

[9:29]rest take your time enjoy your time in the five-star hotel for

[9:32]two or three months and inshallah after those months end after the

[9:39]time elapses will uh start the work that person knows that ultimately

[9:45]he's going to work so what does he do he enters the

[9:49]hotel enjoys himself for a day and then he leaves the hotel

[9:55]he enjoys his stay for a day and he leaves the hotel

[9:59]why because he wants to start working this was the second point

[10:04]that we mentioned last week we also read a tradition by imam

[10:12]where ali posed questions to imam pertaining to verses in the quran

[10:24]which might be understood to be attributing sins to the prophets and

[10:30]he asked him about adam so-called disobedience or sin so we read

[10:35]the part uh that mentioned imam rita's answer concerning adam and we

[10:44]read that imam salam confirmed that adam did not sin that adam

[10:51]did not sin when he said that his disobedience took place where

[10:56]in the garden it didn't take place on earth and we said

[11:02]based on the words of imam based on the wording of the

[11:07]hadith we understand that the imam is saying when he was in

[11:10]the garden he was not mukellah what does that mean it means

[11:18]he was not uh responsible of um carrying out or implementing a

[11:24]maori command there was a command directed at him but it was

[11:30]not mawlana when did the tech leaf begin when was adam actually

[11:39]responsible of carrying out the commands of allah when he came to

[11:43]earth and that also proves our claim which is now today we

[11:55]want to continue with verse 34 or 35 of surah al-baqarah and

[12:03]we still have two points to mention two important points number one

[12:07]what was that tree what was the tree actually verse 35 we

[12:14]want to know what was the tree um that allah pointed to

[12:20]when he told them not to approach the tree and what is

[12:26]the meaning of because allah says what says so the question is

[12:44]what was that tree was it an apple tree orange tree what

[12:52]kind of fruit did it bear and the the the real question

[13:00]is what would what what actually called adam alaihissalam allowed him to

[13:10]you know enjoy his time in his garden and he allowed him

[13:15]to go towards any tree in the garden correct there was one

[13:23]tree that allah told him not to approach and what's interesting is

[13:27]allah points to that tree he uses what we call an arabic

[13:35]islamic now for those of you who have learned arabic grammar you

[13:43]know that hadi the word is used to point to something that's

[13:49]close it's used to point to something close for example i have

[13:54]a water bottle right beside me okay i can say for example

[13:59]because it's close i want you to keep this point in mind

[14:03]because do not approach this tree this tree which is close but

[14:14]after adam alaihissalam approaches the tree for some reason he becomes four

[14:21]allah azzawajal later on we're going to see tells him what he

[14:28]says um i'm mentioning the meaning of the verse it's not the

[14:38]exact wording it says is a word indicating that the tree is

[14:45]what it's for it's also a sim is also so you use

[14:53]it to point to something but the difference between hadi and is

[14:59]that hadi is used for something close and tilka is used for

[15:04]something for so for some reason the tree becomes form why inshallah

[15:07]we'll see just keep that point in mind so the real question

[15:14]is what actually hold adam towards the tree well we need to

[15:21]understand adam adam salam is the proof of god adam adam's main

[15:27]concern is what adam's main concern isn't his belly isn't to fulfill

[15:34]his desire his main concern is getting closer to allah remember this

[15:41]is the person allah told the angels to prostrate for and this

[15:48]is the person who was taught the names so we're talking about

[16:00]a holy figure holy figures are interested in what they're interested in

[16:05]getting closer to god now when we come to traditions we have

[16:14]multiple traditions telling us that the tree allah mentioned when he said

[16:24]for example was connected to holy spirits to holy creations so what

[16:32]we're saying is there was a physical truth and it did have

[16:36]some sort of fruit or some sort of crop on it but

[16:43]that tree was connected also to spiritual beings it was connected to

[16:49]holy figures what holy figures it was connected to the holiest figures

[16:54]the most important people muhammad muhammad this is based on what said

[17:03]we have multiple traditions on this record one of them is the

[17:08]one we're going to read and explain today in sha allah so

[17:12]what we're saying is the following what caused adam alaihissalam to actually

[17:20]come forth and approach the tree was that he wanted to reach

[17:27]a high position he saw that the tree was connected knowing that

[17:44]uh and albeit have that status he wanted to join them in

[17:51]their status adam remember is interested in getting closer to allah so

[17:56]he wanted to join them he wanted to didn't have what it

[18:10]takes to be at the position of he was so out of

[18:18]mercy towards adam out of compassion he tells him don't approach the

[18:24]tree as in don't give yourself a headache you can't reach that

[18:30]position let us read the tradition of imam already on this reward

[18:35]and will move forward so the main point i want you to

[18:39]keep in mind right now is the tree was physical but it

[18:44]was also connected to holy spirits in fact the holiest spirits number

[18:52]two is a prophet of god a proof of god who's interested

[18:57]in getting closer to allah subhanahu wa number three when he saw

[19:05]the supreme status of he wanted to reach their status that's what

[19:11]actually draw him drew him towards the tree but allah knew from

[19:15]the beginning wasn't able to get to that position so out of

[19:20]his mercy he told him don't approach the tree let us read

[19:28]the tradition of himala i'll copy and paste it for you inshaallah

[19:49]you can find it in tafsir mizan foreign so the tradition says

[20:15]that allah tell me about the tree inform me about the tree

[20:45]from which adam and eve ate what was that tree why does

[20:49]he want to know he says it doesn't that people have differed

[20:55]in regards to that tree some say for example that it held

[21:01]this fruit and others say held that fruit etc he says he

[21:12]tells them some people narrate that the tree was a wheat tree

[21:17]so it was a tree in the garden of adam salam which

[21:21]bore wheat hassan says others narrate that this tree was the tree

[21:37]of envy so if it's the tree of envy and adam and

[21:42]eve approached it what does that mean it means that was the

[21:48]question of the imam said what he said he said all of

[21:58]those opinions are occurred how the imam continued or actually asked he

[22:06]said he's asking the imam how could all of these um all

[22:16]of these opinions be correct when they're not the same opinion they're

[22:22]multiple opinions and they seem to be contradicting so the imam said

[22:28]what or possibly it is alayhis are different than the trees over

[23:01]here the trees in that garden would bear multiple types of fruits

[23:06]for example or multiple types of crops so one tree would bear

[23:10]wheat and would also bear at the same time grapes so he

[23:19]tells him whatever he said it's not those trees are not like

[23:24]the trees in this world hence when the imam tells them that

[23:29]all of these opinions are true telling him that it was a

[23:37]tree bearing wheat and it was also the tree of envy he's

[23:41]telling abu salt that there is no contradiction between these opinions because

[23:50]the tree in the garden of adam alaihis could have multiple functions

[23:58]each tree had multiple functions and multiple benefits any questions till now

[24:08]each tree could have multiple functions and benefits do we have any

[24:12]questions before i continue with the hadith so he says after allah

[24:50]honored adam by making the angels prostrate for for him by basically

[24:55]commanding the angels to prostrate for adam and after he honored him

[25:05]by uh placing him in his garden adam alaihi salam asked a

[25:12]question he said that allah subhanahu wa ta'ala create a bashar that

[25:18]is better than me the word bashar is a word referring to

[25:26]the human being why was the human being called bashar because his

[25:31]bashara his skin appears realize there are certain animals that are covered

[25:38]with what covered with fur or covered with hair like gorillas monkeys

[25:45]etc the human being does have hair but his skin a good

[25:50]portion of his skin a significant amount of his skin chokes for

[25:55]that reason he was called bashar so when he says bashar he's

[26:02]talking about human beings like him he asks allah created a bashar

[26:07]better than me he knew what was going through his mind and

[26:25]allah knew that there were people who were superior to adam he

[26:31]wanted to show him those people so he called him and told

[26:38]him raise your head raise your head o adam and look at

[26:47]the base of the throne before i continue i want you to

[26:53]know that this throne that we speak about um is a creation

[27:01]of god there is a creation of god called in harsh that

[27:04]allah has created and it's a massive creation it's a great and

[27:11]massive creation yes allah isn't sitting over it because allah is not

[27:15]physical rather he has full control over the throne just as he

[27:20]has full control over every segment in the universe but keep in

[27:24]mind that based on the traditions of there is something called the

[27:34]throne so allah he looked at the base of the throne and

[27:49]he saw the following writing on the base there is no god

[27:54]other than allah muhammad rasool allah muhammad is allah's messenger fatima is

[28:15]the mistress of the women of the worlds and hassan hussain are

[28:24]the masters of the youth of paradise fakala adam i told him

[28:46]oh adam these people are part of your progeny you will be

[28:50]their grandfather however they're better than you and actually they're better than

[29:02]all of my creations so they are what at the top of

[29:07]the pyramid the greatest creations not only the greatest greatest human beings

[29:11]they're the greatest creations of god had it not been for them

[29:23]he thousand i wouldn't have created you nor would i have created

[29:29]heaven nor would i have created hellfire and had it not been

[29:34]for them i would not have created the sky nor the earth

[29:38]does this remind you of anything yes it does or it should

[29:46]at least it reminds you of a passage in hadith which says

[29:49]that the whole universe was created for who for allah created the

[29:56]creations he created the universe he created us and the jinns all

[30:04]for the sake of who for the sake of his beloved adam

[30:22]don't look at them in an envious way or else i will

[30:34]i will pull you away i will push you away from wherever

[30:40]you are residing the place where adam alaihissalam was residing that gordon

[30:48]was a place where adam alaihi salam was spiritually close to allah

[30:56]subhanahu wa so allah tells him that if you look at in

[31:02]an envious manner you will become spiritually distant from me i will

[31:09]distance you in a spiritual manner of course because allah is not

[31:13]physical i will distance you from here the imam says what it

[31:22]says now i'm going to um translate what the imam is saying

[31:36]and he said i'm going to give you a literal translation and

[31:39]then once we're done with that i'll explain the tradition in sha

[31:44]allah so he says adam alaihissalam after that incident stared at in

[31:52]an envious manner that's the literal translation and he wished to possess

[31:59]their position he wished that he was that his position was their

[32:05]position or in better terms he wished that he was at the

[32:09]position so what happened fatha alaihissalam and led him to eating from

[32:32]the tree the tree allah subhana told him not to approach what

[32:41]is meant by the shaitaan gaining dominion over adam isn't that he

[32:45]actually controlled him physically no what has meant is that he called

[32:52]him towards what eating the tree as the quran says and he

[32:58]told him to come and eat the tree and for some reason

[33:03]adam salam listened and actually approached the tree then he says so

[33:22]adam also stared at fatima in an envious manner and that led

[33:28]her to eating from the tree just as adam ate from the

[33:33]tree adam allah out of their garden and brought them down to

[33:54]earth now an important question comes to mind what is meant by

[34:03]adam and eve looking at we need to understand this product well

[34:22]you see look at the tradition carefully don't rush look at it

[34:30]carefully what does it say it says if you've studied arabic grammar

[34:44]you'll know that the word wow in arabic has multiple functions sometimes

[34:51]the word wow when you say for example sometimes it means and

[35:00]but it doesn't only mean and for example when i say i'm

[35:08]saying muhammad and ali came but sometimes the wow isn't actually used

[35:14]in that sense sometimes it's what we call wow it's a wow

[35:23]which describes the state of a person when something happens let me

[35:29]give an example verse 55 of surah 5 verse 55 of surah

[35:45]your guardians allah says are only three allah and his messenger and

[35:55]those who believe who are those who believe he tells you those

[36:06]who believe are the ones who uphold prayer and pay charity because

[36:20]he is the one who was praying and was in the state

[36:26]of when a and the only person who helped him on that

[36:34]day was by giving him what by giving him his ring as

[36:38]he was in the state of gukur he made a signal to

[36:42]the beggar telling him to come and take the ring so he

[36:46]came and he took it from the hand of the imam according

[36:49]to a second tradition the imam gave him a shirt he gave

[36:53]him a shirt long story short he is the one who paid

[36:58]alms who paid charity while he was in the state of now

[37:03]this wow when allah says how would you translate it would you

[37:11]say and they're bowing down no that would be a wrong translation

[37:14]this is aliyah it's telling you what was the state of amir

[37:19]al-mu'min salam when he gave the the ring or when he paid

[37:25]alms so you would say those who believe those who uphold prayer

[37:29]and pay alms as there in the state of so sometimes the

[37:37]wow doesn't mean and sometimes it's i hope that's clear if that's

[37:44]clear then we'll move on to a third type of wow there's

[37:48]a third type of wow called wow what's here it's basically a

[38:00]wow which will explain what was meant before it so you'll use

[38:04]two words one that comes before the wow and one that comes

[38:07]after it the word that comes after the wow explains the one

[38:12]before it if that's clear now we'll go to the tradition of

[38:18]imam he was at their position so here the imam explained that

[38:47]envy of adam what was that envy it was the positive type

[38:55]of energy for those of you who were present yesterday in our

[38:59]sida class if any if any of you were actually present you

[39:03]heard that there are two types of envy positive type and a

[39:10]negative type the positive type of envy is what we call and

[39:18]it's also called hasset sometimes in arabic you can call it hasset

[39:21]for example well actually before i give the example let me explain

[39:25]the concept and then i'll give the example what's when you see

[39:33]that someone has a particular blessing and you wish to have the

[39:42]same blessing without wishing that he loses it that's it's a good

[39:46]tree for example i see that my brother in faith masha'allah praise

[39:52]salah every night and i don't pray salt and then every night

[39:56]so i say ya allah grant me the godly aid i need

[40:04]to pray salat and let every night just as he's praying salat

[40:07]and that every night this is what this is raptor i don't

[40:11]want him to stop praying salat i want him to continue but

[40:15]i also want that for myself so this is positive envy whereas

[40:21]negative envy which is called hasan and also called ripta sometimes is

[40:28]what type of envy it is basically a state in which you

[40:35]intend or you wish that the person who has a blessing loses

[40:41]that blessing let me use the same example when i see my

[40:45]brother in faith praying salatullah every night i wish that he did

[40:51]not praise a lot of me i wish that you know he

[40:57]wasn't that guided he wasn't that spiritual that religious this is hasa

[41:01]this is the negative type of envy it's the type of envy

[41:07]which khabib was afflicted with rabin saw that habib islam was superior

[41:13]to him and was destined to be adam's successor he wanted to

[41:19]be the successor of adam so what did he do he was

[41:22]envious towards happy he didn't want habil to have that position if

[41:31]that's clear now we will go back to the imam's tradition when

[41:39]adam alaihi salam looked at in an envious manner what does what

[41:45]did that mean it mean it all he wanted was that he

[42:12]becomes the partner of animal that he reaches their position but that

[42:16]was too much for adam this is the one thing which led

[42:23]him to what to approaching the tree so he can actually get

[42:27]to that position but subhanallah when he approached the tree he realized

[42:31]that he failed in reaching their position even then allah did what

[42:38]allah gave him a prize inshallah we're going to get to that

[42:41]prize later on allah gave him a prize when allah gives adam

[42:48]a prize after adam you know disobeys the command of god that

[42:53]in itself shows you that adam did not sin so i'll repeat

[43:01]because i know these words might be a bit bizarre at the

[43:07]moment maybe this is the first time you're hearing this um there

[43:11]are two types of hassab negative envy and positive envy both are

[43:17]called hassan sometimes and both are called although usually we call the

[43:23]positive envy and the negative envy hase looked at albeit in an

[43:31]envious manner meaning he wanted their blessing but he didn't want them

[43:38]to lose the blessing he didn't want them to lose a blessing

[43:41]but he actually looked at them in an envious manner meaning he

[43:47]wanted them to lose their position in the eyes of allah subhanahu

[43:52]wa adam would have become cursed allah would have cursed him and

[43:54]he would have definitely lost his chance of of of being a

[44:00]prophet of god but that's not adam salaam in order to add

[44:11]clarity to this point remember how we use envy in english for

[44:15]example when you see methylene you know your friend having a good

[44:23]time happy in a good state etc and sometimes you tell your

[44:26]friend i envy you what do you mean by that word you

[44:29]actually mean that i wish you lost your blessing no you mean

[44:33]that i wish i was in your shoes as in i wish

[44:39]i had what you had we have a beautiful hadith by imam

[44:45]and imam which says that every shaheed every martyr on the day

[44:55]of judgement will wish to have the the position of abu fateh

[45:02]does that mean that they're going to actually you know wish that

[45:08]abbas wasn't so great that abbas wasn't so high in the eyes

[45:11]of allah no rather it means that they're going to wish that

[45:16]they had that position as well that they were the partners of

[45:19]the abbas in that position so that is the meaning of adam

[45:28]and eve looking at allah and passed away last year uh he

[45:50]was the author of encyclopedia regarding the prophet's biography and he called

[46:03]it the uh correct biography of rasulallah i believe it's about no

[46:11]less than 30 or 40 volumes a great historian and a great

[46:30]uh he revealed a lot of important pieces of knowledge he wrote

[46:33]a book called adam full book on this issue on the issue

[46:38]of adam alayhi salaam the tree the gordon iblees etc so in

[46:44]that book he comments on this tradition and he says when allah

[46:49]tells adam and eve not to look at a hidden bank in

[46:53]an envious manner here allah is referring to the negative ending to

[46:59]hassan but when adam actually looks at them in an envious manner

[47:06]over there adam alaihi salam does what so it's referring to the

[47:24]positive envy do we have any questions before we continue more questions

[47:49]but we have a few minutes left so let's tackle one more

[47:56]point before we conclude insha'allah by now it should be clear that

[48:03]the tree in that garden was a physical tree but it was

[48:07]what attached to the holiest spirits the spirits one question remains concerning

[48:19]verse 35 do not approach this tree last you shall become from

[48:34]the unjust now the question is what is meant by being unjust

[48:37]and how could a prophet of god be unjust how could a

[48:43]prophet of god be unjust this is a verse or the least

[48:52]i can say is this part that i mean part of the

[49:03]holy quran and in order to understand you need to bring back

[49:13]the verse to what to the verses to the verses inshallah on

[49:18]saturday um we have a magnus and the topic will be muhammad

[49:29]and with verses i would highly recommend you to listen or to

[49:34]watch the major list because i'm going to explain thoroughly the the

[49:40]the meaning of and verses but for now i want you to

[49:48]understand this point verses are those verses that are decisive that are

[50:00]uh direct when we say direct what do we mean we mean

[50:05]that when you read the verse you understand the meaning of the

[50:13]verse by reading it for example when allah says or he says

[50:22]know that there is no god other than allah where he says

[50:29]do not approach adultery do not approach foreign verses when you read

[50:34]them if you actually understand arabic you'll understand um the message behind

[50:42]these verses whereas verses are white verses are those that give you

[50:56]multiple meanings when you read them and those meanings contradict one another

[51:02]read a verse and multiple meanings come to mind when you read

[51:07]that verse now those meanings are contradicting which means we can't say

[51:13]allah subhanahu wa'ta'ala meant all of those meanings no no some of

[51:16]the meanings are definitely wrong now we want to know which meaning

[51:19]that allah intend on conveying in order to determine the right meaning

[51:35]you have to take the mute back to it back to the

[51:42]by taking it back to the mat you'll be able to understand

[51:46]which meaning is that which meaning is the right one i think

[51:49]i gave an example last time but i'll repeat myself just just

[51:52]in case to clarify this point and we'll conclude that the class

[51:55]inshaallah allah tells you that on a day of judgment there will

[52:04]be believers who will look at their lord and says those faces

[52:17]shall be looking at their lord that is the literal translation of

[52:21]the verse like when i read in arabic what do i understand

[52:29]multiple meanings come to mind the first one is people will literally

[52:35]look at allah and they'll see him physically just as they see

[52:45]their you know tvs their backpacks their laptops etc that's the first

[52:52]meeting the second meaning is no people will be looking at the

[52:57]mercy of their gold ah the reward of their little so the

[53:01]word mercy or reward is actually part of the verse but it's

[53:08]omitting what we call in arabic was if allah says which meaning

[53:18]is the right one because these are different meanings they're contradicting the

[53:24]second one implies that allah will not be seen with the physical

[53:28]eye the first one implies that he will be seen with the

[53:30]physical eye so which one is the right one here we go

[53:37]and on top of that we go back a verse indicating that

[53:56]allah that nothing resembles allah nothing in existence resembles we understand that

[54:02]the first meaning is wrong the first meaning was not intended by

[54:10]allah which meaning the one saying that people will literally look at

[54:15]their lord on the day of judgment so we're left with with

[54:23]which meaning with the second saying that people will look at the

[54:29]reward or the mercy of their lord and that meaning itself was

[54:38]what i presented which makes complete sense by the way why because

[54:56]ultimately everything in existence is a what is a sign of god

[55:01]when you look at anything in existence even yourself you can see

[55:08]uh the presence of allah azzawajal because we're a creation thus you

[55:11]need what a creator and you can see a manifestation of allah's

[55:17]attributes every creation that holds a lot of secrets thus its creator

[55:24]must be knowledgeable right you can see allah's power allah's knowledge allah's

[55:28]mercy allah's kindness allah's generosity allah's wisdom through his creations although you're

[55:33]not physically looking at the essence of god so when you look

[55:41]at your tawa your rewards in heaven spiritually speaking not physically spiritually

[55:47]speaking you'll be looking at allah subhanahu wa you'll be seeing a

[55:50]manifestation of his attributes as elijah so long story short with with

[56:01]verses we have to take them back to verses and we have

[56:06]to take them back to understand those verses why are we saying

[56:14]this because allah he told adam and eve if you approach the

[56:19]tree you will be from the unjust that's the literal translation so

[56:24]now the question is what is the meaning of the unjust we

[56:28]said it's foreign
