Benefits of the Verse: “And they were struck with humiliation and poverty”
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
In this is evidence for the striking of humiliation upon the Children of Israel, and the striking of poverty. Yes? And we have mentioned that this verse is absolute in one aspect and restricted in another, regarding humiliation, or regarding poverty? Regarding humiliation only, as for poverty, it remains. And what is meant by poverty here is spiritual poverty or material poverty? Yes, spiritual, and it may also be material. But one who looks at reality in the present time, knowing that the truth of the matter is that the Jews have owned the entire economy of the world, all the economy in the East and the West is now in the hands of the Jews, knows that the intended meaning of poverty here is the heart, spiritual poverty. As for humiliation, Allah the Exalted restricted it in Surat al-Imran and said: [Ali 'Imran 3:112] Poverty is absolute [Ali 'Imran 3:112] without exception.
In this is evidence that the Children of Israel will not stand up against the Muslims if they fight them from the side of Islam. Where is this taken from? Because the striking of humiliation is for the cause of disobedience, yes? If that is the case, then if they are fought with obedience and Islam, it is certain that the calamity will be upon them. And Allah the Exalted said:[Al-Hashr 59:14]. The benefit, do you have the number? I forgot.
