Exegesis of the saying of Allah the Exalted: "Indeed, He is capable of restoring him. The Day when the secrets will be exposed."

Shaykh Muhammad ibn Salih al-‘Uthaymeen

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh :
Indeed, He is able to return him إنه على رجعه لقادر
Who is it?
The student: Allah

The Shaykh : Allah is capable of restoring him, meaning He is capable of restoring this human being on the Day of Resurrection. The One who created him the first time is capable of restoring him a second time, as Allah the Exalted said:
And it is He who begins creation; then He repeats it, and that is [even] easier for Him وهو الذي يبدأُ الخلق ثم يعيده وهو أهون عليه
[Ar-Rum 30:27]
Indeed, He is able to return him إنه على رجعه لقادر
When?
The Day when secrets will be put on trial, يوم تبلى السرائر
[At-Tariq 86:9]
That is the Day of Resurrection. The meaning of "exposed" is that the secrets, the hearts, will be tested. O Allah, purify our secrets. O Allah, purify our secrets.
The student: Amen.

The Shaykh : O Allah, purify our secrets.
The student: Amen.

The Shaykh : And cause us to die upon the best of what pleases You of us, O Lord of the worlds.
The student: Amen, O Allah.
The student: May Allah reward you with good.

The Shaykh :
The Day when secrets will be put on trial, يوم تبلى السرائر
[At-Tariq 86:9]
On the Day of Resurrection, people will not be questioned about their outward deeds, because some people perform an outward deed that is as good as it can be, but their heart is ruined. Have you not seen the hypocrites? Allah says about them:
And when you see them, their forms please you إذا رأيتهم تعجبك أجسامهم
[Al-Munafiqun 63:4]
A pleasing appearance, a beautiful form.
and if they speak, you listen to their speech وإن يقولوا تسمع لقولهم
[Al-Munafiqun 63:4]
Eloquence, eloquence, and clarity, but there is no good in them.
[They are] as if they were pieces of wood propped up - they think that every shout is against them. They are the enemy, so beware of them. كأنهم خشب مسندة يحسبون كل صيحة عليهم هم العدو فاحذرهم
[Al-Munafiqun 63:4]
So on the Day of Resurrection, the reckoning is based on what is in the breasts, as Allah the Exalted said:
(9) But does he not know that when the contents of the graves are scattered (10) And that within the breasts is obtained, أفلا يعلم إذا بُعثر ما في القور وحُصل ما في الصدور
[Al-'Adiyat 100:9-10]
