Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : Allah, Mighty and Majestic, said: [Al-Furqan 25:75] There is another reading: [Al-Furqan 25:75]. This means they find nothing in this abode but greeting and peace. No idle talk, no sin, no anger, and no hatred. It is the abode of bliss. I ask Allah not to deprive me and you of it. O Allah, make us among the inheritors of the Garden of Bliss. O Allah, make us among the inheritors of the Garden of Bliss, O Lord of the worlds. Eternal, perpetual, everlasting. No death, no illness, no sleep, no worry, no grief, no fatigue, and no toil. Indeed, when a man desires a fruit on a branch, the branch descends to him until he takes the fruit. Allah, the Exalted, said: [Ar-Rahman 55:54]. Complete? [Ar-Rahman 55:54]. The scholars mean that if a person desires a fruit, the branch descends by the command of Allah, Mighty and Majestic, so that he takes the fruit without toil. There is no grief or fear therein. Allah, the Exalted, says to them: Sahih al-Bukhari 6549. This, by Allah, is the bliss. The pleasure of Allah is eternal for the people of Paradise. O Allah, make us among them. [Al-Furqan 25:76] This means how excellent it is! This syntactic structure, this sentence, conveys wonder. It means: How excellent is their abode! And how excellent is their station! They are in bliss and a secure abode. [Al-Hijr 15:48]. [Al-Furqan 25:77] And were it not for your supplication, He would have destroyed you. [Fatir 35:45]. The address is to the disbelievers: [Al-Furqan 25:77] A: The punishment will be binding upon you, because you committed disbelief in your lives. So the punishment became binding upon you after your death. O Allah, save us from the Fire. O Allah, save us from the Fire. O Allah, save us from the Fire. And settle us in the abode of permanence.
And with this, the discussion of this surah, or rather the last verses of it, comes to an end.
I ask Allah to make me and you among those who reflect upon His words and act upon them, and who make them their guide to the Gardens of Bliss. Indeed, He is capable of all things.
And all praise is due to Allah, Lord of the worlds. And may Allah send prayers and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad, and upon his family and all his Companions.
And now to the questions dictated by our brother Mahmud ibn 'Abd al-'Aziz al-Sayyigh.

لا يَمَسُّهُمْ فِيهَا نَصَبٌ وَمَا هُمْ مِنْهَا بِمُخْرَجِينَSay, "What would my Lord care for you if not for your supplication?"
قُلْ مَا يَعْبَأُ بِكُمْ رَبِّي لَوْلا دُعَاؤُكُمْAnd if Allah were to impose blame on the people for what they have earned, He would not leave upon the earth any creature
وَلَوْ يُؤَاخِذُ اللَّهُ النَّاسَ بِمَا كَسَبُوا مَا تَرَكَ عَلَى ظَهْرِهَا مِنْ دَابَّةٍThen you have denied
فَقَدْ كَذَّبْتُمْso your denial is going to be adherent.
