Continuation of the commentary on Tafsir al-Jalalayn: ((Say, "Are those who know equal to those who do not know?")) That is, they are not equal, just as the scholar and the ignorant person are not equal.

The Shaykh : Well, in any case, it has become clear to us from this discussion that his saying:
They are not equalلا يستويان
that is, the devout and the disbeliever, just as the scholar and the ignorant person are not equal, means that his saying: "they are not equal" does not refer to his saying:
Say, "Are those who know equal to those who do not know?" قل هل يستوي الذين يعلمون والذين لا يعلمون
[Az-Zumar 39:9]
, but rather refers to what came before, which is: "
Or is he one who stands in devotion during the hours of the night, prostrating and standingأمَن هو قانت آناء الليل ساجِدًا وقائِمًا
Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 34:1406
How can he who is disobedient be equal? They are not equal, just as those who know and those who do not know are not equal"
Yes.
