Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh:
May Allah greet you and bless you.
The questioner:
He says: What is the meaning of the verse in the statement of Allah, Blessed and Exalted is He:[An-Nahl 16:98] [Al-Fatihah 1:1] [An-Nahl 16:1]?
The Shaykh:
[Al-Fatihah 1:1-2], and may Allah send prayers and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad, and upon his family and all his Companions. "The command of Allah has come" means the Hour of Resurrection and the transition from this worldly life to the Hereafter. This expresses the future using the past tense to confirm its occurrence. "The command of Allah has come" is equivalent to "the command of Allah is coming" or "the command of Allah, may He be Exalted, will come." The future is expressed with a past-tense verb to confirm its occurrence, to ensure preparation for it, and to keep it constantly in mind. Yes.
May Allah greet you and bless you.

(1) In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful. (2) [All] praise is [due] to Allah, Lord of the worlds -
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ
