Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Abu Ibrahim from Jeddah says, may Allah preserve you: The trust mentioned in the saying of Allah the Exalted,[Al-Ahzab 33:72], the verse. He asks: What is the scope of this? Does it include raising children? Does it include loving the homeland? And does it also include the Muslim's dealings with his Muslim brother?
Answer:
The trust mentioned in the verse[Al-Ahzab 33:72] is one that they were given the choice to accept; it is not a compulsory burden imposed upon them. It was offered to them as a choice: whoever accepts it will receive reward, and whoever rejects it will face punishment. The heavens and the earth preferred safety and refused to carry it, but we did not refuse to carry it. It refers to the trust of religious obligation and worship, that is, the worship of Allah, which is the trust mentioned in this verse. Yes.
