Reading from the author's text with commentary and collation of manuscripts: "And Allah the Exalted said to His Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The reader: "And Allah the Exalted said to His Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him):
Indeed, those who have divided their religion and become sects - you, [O Muhammad], are not [associated] with them in anything. Their affair is only [left] to Allah; then He will inform them about what they used to do. لست منهم في شيءٍ
[Al-An'am 6:159]
And this necessitates His disavowal of them in all matters. And whoever follows another in some of his matters is of him in that matter, because the statement of the one who says: I am of this, and this is of me - meaning I am of his type, and he is of my type - because two individuals do not unite except by type, as in His saying (Glorified and Exalted is He):
you are of one another بعضكم من بعضٍ
[Ali 'Imran 3:195]
and His saying (peace and blessings be upon him) to Ali:
You are from me, and I am from you. أنت مني وأنا منك
Jami` at-Tirmidhi 3716Sahih (Darussalam)
So the statement of the one who says: I am not of this in anything, means I am not sharing with him in anything, rather I am disavowing all of his matters.
And if Allah has disavowed His Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) from all of their matters, then whoever truly follows the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) is disavowing as He disavowed, and whoever agrees with them is contradicting the Messenger to the extent of his agreement with them, for the two individuals who differ in every aspect of their religion, the more one resembles"
.

The Shaykh : one of them, one of them or one of them?
The reader: One of them.

The Shaykh : One of them is more correct.
The reader: One of them is more correct?

The Shaykh : Yes, more correct, in my opinion it is possible because when the alif is not written, a yaa is placed in its place.
The reader: In my copy, O Shaykh, in the dhal: whenever one resembles one of them, it contradicts the other.

The Shaykh : Meaning, whenever one of them resembles the other, the other contradicts it in something.
The student: ... .

The Shaykh : For the two individuals who differ in every aspect of their religion.
The student: ... resembles one of them, the other was.

The Shaykh : Yes.
The student: May Allah reward you, regarding his saying: For the two individuals, it seems to me.

The Shaykh : Who differ in every aspect of their religion, whenever one resembles the other, the other contradicts it. Is there a problem with you? What does it say?
The student: Resembles one of them, contradicted...

The Shaykh : Okay, then this is it.
The reader: "For the two individuals who differ in every aspect of their religion, whenever you resemble one of them, you contradict the other".

The Shaykh : I have another one
The reader: "And He said (Blessed and Exalted is He):
To Allah belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is in the earth. Whether you show what is within yourselves or conceal it, Allah will bring you to account for it لله ما في السماوات وما في الأرض وإن تبدوا ما في أنفسكم أو تخفوه يحاسبكم به الله
[Al-Baqarah 2:284]
to the end of the surah. And Muslim narrated in his Sahih from al-'Ala ibn Abd al-Rahman from his father from Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) who said: لما نزلت على رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم لله ما في السماوات وما في الأرض وإن تبدوا ما في أنفسكم أو تخفوه يحاسبكم به الله . الآية ، اشتد ذلك على أصحاب رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم فأتوا رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم ، ثم بركوا على الركَب ، فقالوا : أي رسول الله When the verse was revealed to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), "To Allah belongs what is in the heavens and what is in the earth. If you disclose what is in your hearts or conceal it, Allah will call you to account for it," it became very difficult for the Companions of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). So they came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), prostrated on their knees, and said: "O Messenger of Allah...""


The Shaykh : Yes.
The reader: "
O Messenger of Allah, we have been burdened with what we are capable of, namely prayer and fasting. أي رسنولَ الله كُلفنا ما نطيق الصلاة والصيام
"
.

The Shaykh : Prayer, prayer, yes.
The student: ... .

The Shaykh : No, we do not have "min" (from), the prayer does not have "min"
The reader: Listen

The Shaykh : I say in my opinion, I say it does not have "min".
The reader: "
We have been burdened with what we are capable of, namely prayer, fasting, jihad, and charity, and this verse has been revealed to you, yet we are not capable of it. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Do you wish to say what the People of the Book before you said: 'We heard and we disobeyed'? Rather, say: 'We heard and we obeyed. Forgive us, our Lord, and to You is the destination.'" كُلفنا ما نطيق الصلاةَ والصيام والجهاد والصدقة ، وقد نزلت عليك هذه الآية ولا نطيقها . قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم : أتريدون أن تقولوا كما قال أهل الكتابين من قبلكم : سمعنا وعصينا ؟ بل قولوا : سمعنا وأطعنا غفرانك ربنا وإليك المصير "
When the people recited it and their tongues became soft with it, Allah the Exalted revealed in its wake:
The Messenger has believed in what was revealed to him from his Lord, and [so have] the believers. All of them have believed in Allah and His angels and His books and His messengers, [saying], "We make no distinction between any of His messengers." And they say, "We hear and we obey. [We seek] Your forgiveness, our Lord, and to You is the [final] destination." آمن الرسول بما أنزل إليه من ربه والمؤمنون كلٌ آمن بالله وملائكته وكتبه ورسله لا نفرق بين أحدٍ من رسله وقالوا سمعنا وأطعنا غفرانك ربنا وإليك المصير
[Al-Baqarah 2:285]
When they did that, Allah abrogated it, so Allah revealed:
Allah does not charge a soul except [with that within] its capacity. It will have [the consequence of] what [good] it has gained, and it will bear [the consequence of] what [evil] it has earned. "Our Lord, do not impose blame upon us if we have forgotten or erred. لا يكلفُ الله نفسًا إلا وسعها لها ما كسبت وعليها ما اكتسبت ربنا لا تؤاخذنا إن نسينا أو أخطأنا
[Al-Baqarah 2:286]
, He said: Yes
Our Lord, and lay not upon us a burden like that which You laid upon those before us. ربنا ولا تحمل علينا إصرًا كما حملته على الذين من قبلنا
[Al-Baqarah 2:286]
He said: Yes
Our Lord, and burden us not with that which we have no ability to bear ربنا ولا تحملنا ما لا طاقة لنا به
[Al-Baqarah 2:286]
, He said: Yes
And pardon us; and forgive us; and have mercy upon us. You are our protector, so give us victory over the disbelieving people." واعف عنا واغفر لنا وارحمنا أنت مولانا فانصرنا على القوم الكافرين
[Al-Baqarah 2:286]
He said: Yes ".
So the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) warned them to receive the command of Allah as the People of the Book received it, and he ordered them to hear and obey; so Allah was pleased with that for them, until Allah lifted from them the burdens and shackles that were upon those before us
"
.

The Shaykh : Praise be to Allah.
The reader: "And Allah said regarding His attribute (peace and blessings be upon him):
and relieves them of their burden and the shackles which were upon them ويضع عنهم إصرهم والأغلال التي كانت عليهم
[Al-A'raf 7:157]
So Allah informed"
.

The Shaykh : There is a deficiency in our copy, the apparent one here.
The student: ... .

The Shaykh : In our copy, He ordered them, He said: So He warned them.
The student: The time for questions has come

The Shaykh : Yes, the time for questions has come, do we stop here?
The reader: It says here, O Shaykh, a marginal note from here to here, meaning from here in his saying: "The People of the Book" it says: And from here to his saying: "Those before us" a line and a half dropped from T.

The Shaykh : Yes, this is what dropped from my copy.
