Exegesis of the saying of Allah the Exalted: (( . . . . And Allah was ever Forgiving, Merciful )).

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh :
and that Allah may accept repentance from the believing men and believing women. And ever is Allah Forgiving and Merciful. وَيَتُوبَ اللَّهُ عَلَى الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَالْمُؤْمِنَاتِ وَكَانَ اللَّهُ غَفُوراً رَحِيماً
[Al-Ahzab 33:73]
O my Arab brother, the grammarian: this sentence poses a difficulty for you
And Allah is ever Forgiving and Merciful.وَكَانَ اللَّهُ غَفُوراً رَحِيما
[An-Nisa 4:96]
meaning: "was" in the past, and now? "Was" is a past tense verb. We say:
Wasكان
Here, time is not intended. Rather, it is intended to affirm that Allah the Exalted is described with that, with forgiveness and mercy. It is, as the grammarians say: stripped of time. The intended meaning is emphasis. So Allah the Exalted is described with forgiveness and mercy always and forever.
And Allah is ever Forgiving and Merciful. وكان الله غفورا رحيما
[An-Nisa 4:96]
.
Did the adhan come? To the adhan.
And Allah is ever Forgiving and Merciful. وكان الله غفورا رحيما
[An-Nisa 4:96]
.
