Exegesis of the saying of Allah the Exalted: (Nay! If you only knew with the knowledge of certainty, you would surely see the Hellfire, ...)
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh :[At-Takathur 102:5] If this "if" is conditional, where is its response? The response is omitted. The implied meaning is: Nay! If you only knew with the knowledge of certainty, you would not have been distracted by competition in increase. Therefore, you find that the one who is certain of the Hereafter can never prefer the worldly life over the Hereafter. When he hears the call to prayer, he closes his shop and goes to pray; he leaves his work and goes to pray, because he knows with the knowledge of certainty that the Hereafter will come and there will be recompense. So, [At-Takathur 102:5-6] Yes.
Where is the response to "if"? Who among you knows grammar? Oh, oh, no grammar and no Arabic? Yes.
The student: ...
The Shaykh : What contradicts, look.
The student: It is an implied omitted phrase, O Shaykh.
The Shaykh : Who is speaking? Come on, stand up.
The student: It is an implied omitted phrase.
The Shaykh : What is the implied phrase? Oh, people.
The student: ... .
The Shaykh : What is the implied phrase? Rest.
He answered half the answer, come on.
The student: If you only knew with the knowledge of certainty, you would not have preferred the worldly life over the Hereafter.
The Shaykh : Well done, perfect. You would not have preferred the worldly life over the Hereafter, nor would you have been distracted by competition in increase. Good. Oh, people, one who does not understand the meaning may think that this is the response to "if."
"If you only knew with the certainty, you would see," and this is a mistake. This is a new sentence that has no connection to what came before it. The implied meaning in this second sentence is: By Allah, you would surely see the Hellfire. So he affirmed the sentence with the implied oath, the letter "lam," and the noun of emphasis. Three affirmations.
The Hellfire is the fire of Jahannam. May Allah protect us and you from it by His grace and generosity.
With the eye of sight. Indeed, Allah Mighty and Majestic said: [Maryam 19:71-72]
O Allah, save us from it. O Allah, save us from it. O Allah, save us from it, O Lord.
