Allah the Exalted said: << قال رب انصرني على القوم المفسدين >

What was the response of Lut? His response was that he sought refuge in Allah, Mighty and Majestic, so This is a vocative from which the yā of the vocative has been omitted, and it is in the accusative case. Is it built (mabni)? No, it is in the accusative case because its original form is Rabbī with the yā, and the yā was omitted for ease of pronunciation. For this reason, I think it is marked with a kasrah in your books, but it is not Rabb, so it is in the accusative case. Yes.

The Shaykh : It is the closest, but there is nothing in the author's words that prevents this; rather, the closest is in your threat to us, for they were the ones who said, "Bring us the punishment of Allah if you are among the truthful in what you threaten us with." Here, the vocative is used, and the yā' of the vocative is omitted for lightness and for the beginning with the name of Allah, (Glorified and Exalted is He). Know that the root of "naṣara" (to help) sometimes takes the preposition and sometimes takes the preposition . If it takes the preposition , its meaning is prevention, as in the saying of Allah the Exalted: "We saved them from them," meaning "We prevented them from them." And if it takes the preposition , its meaning becomes emergence and victory. Sometimes it takes neither nor , in which case it encompasses both meanings, as in the saying of Allah the Exalted: "We helped them." He did not say nor . So it has three usages: sometimes it takes the preposition , sometimes it takes the preposition , and sometimes it is used absolutely. If it takes the preposition , its meaning is prevention and rescue; if it takes the preposition , its meaning is victory and emergence; and if it is used absolutely, it encompasses both matters, which is frequent in the Qur'an. This, this, and this. Allah the Exalted said: And He the Exalted said: [Ghafir: 51]. And its examples are many. Here he said: From which of the three types? Emergence and victory. "Help me by making my statement true in bringing down the punishment.

against the corrupting people."

على القوم المُفْسِدِين

[Al-'Ankabut 29:30]

[From] the defiant ones [who] approach men [with desire], so Allah responded to his supplication." And his saying [mentioning the state of those being supplicated against] is from the category of seeking nearness to Allah through a means (tawassul), for every description that warrants a response is considered a means. And we have mentioned previously that seeking nearness to Allah, (Mighty and Majestic), has types, one of which is seeking nearness by mentioning the state of the supplicant, as in the saying of Allah the Exalted regarding Moses: [Al-Qasas: 24]. And here, it is by the state of the one being supplicated against. For their corruption necessitates their destruction, humiliation, and victory over them. And his saying: With what are they corrupting? He says: The author And this is an explanation of a thing by its cause, for disobedience is the cause of corruption. Allah the Exalted said: [Ar-Rum: 41]. And there is no doubt that the action of the people of Lut was among the greatest corruptions on earth. Yes.

The Shaykh : This is what we will come to, if Allah wills, in the benefits. The first lesson contains only the explanation, and the second lesson, if Allah wills, will contain the benefits. Yes.
