The Meaning of the Saying of Allah the Exalted: "Indeed, it is closed over them upon pillars extended."
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh :[Al-Humazah 104:8] That is, the Fire is closed and sealed over its people [Al-Humazah 104:9] with pillars that strengthen it and prevent its disintegration; they prevent it. "Extended" means, if we were to give an example of this, it would be a large oven surrounded by strong, extended chains locked upon you, and then it is closed. What happens to what is inside? Does it burn or not? Yes, there is no doubt that it is closed over them upon pillars extended.
This is Surat al-Humazah. As for Surat al-Ma'un, perhaps we will speak about it, if Allah wills, at the end of the week, because I fear that time is short. Yes.
The student: There are questions.
The Shaykh : Are there questions? If Allah wills, we will speak about them on Thursday night, if Allah wills. So remember us if we forget. And a person is human, and may forget.
Indeed, Hellfire will be closed down upon them
