And among the benefits of the verse that follows it, [Fussilat 41:18], is that one of its benefits is the justice of Allah (Mighty and Majestic). What is the aspect of that justice, brother? What is your name? The narrator? Come on, narrator, from his saying: [Fussilat 41:17] and [Fussilat 41:18], in it is the affirmation of justice for Allah (Mighty and Majestic). Justice means the absence of injustice and the absence of oppression? Okay, yes. What is the aspect of the indication in this verse and the one before it regarding the justice of Allah? I do not want you to mention to me the place of the indication; I want the aspect of the indication?
The student: Those who preferred blindness over guidance, Allah (Mighty and Majestic) rewarded them with what they deserve, the punishment... Those who believed, Allah (Mighty and Majestic) rewarded them by saving them on the Day of Resurrection.
The Shaykh : Well done. The affirmation of salvation for the believers and punishment for the turnaways is evidence of justice, because He, Blessed and Exalted is He, gave every person what he deserves. And there is no doubt that Allah, Blessed and Exalted is He, is the most just of judges. And from the fact that He is the most just of judges, it necessarily follows that He is the most just of them, because the more just the judgment, the more wise it is.
And among the benefits of the noble verse is that faith and taqwa (mindfulness of Allah) are the cause of salvation, as He said:[Fussilat 41:18]. And similar to that is His saying, the Exalted: [Az-Zumar 39:61].

The student: That the wali (close friend of Allah) is the believing, pious person.
The Shaykh : That those who believed and used to fear Allah, and those whom Allah saves, are the awliya (close friends of Allah), because His saying:[Yunus 10:62-63] corresponds completely to this verse, even in the wording: there it is and here it is .

The Shaykh : And what is the omitted part?
The student: ...
The Shaykh : The object of, meaning “and they used to fear Allah.” Those who believed and used to fear Allah. And if you wish, say: “And they used to fear what they were commanded to fear,” because Allah the Exalted sometimes says: and sometimes says: [Al-Baqarah 2:48] [Ali 'Imran 3:131]. So if we say: “And they used to fear what they were commanded to fear,” that becomes what? More general. Are you with us, everyone? And the slaves of Allah? What did we say? The estimation of the omitted part in His saying: ? No, what is its estimation? How do we estimate it?
