 وَأَقُولُ فِي القُرْآنِ مَا جَاءَتْ بِهِ أَيَاتُهُ فَهُوَ الْكَارِيمُ الْمُنزَالُوْ وَأَقُولُ قَالَ اللَّهُ جَلَّ جَلَالُوْهُ وَالْمُصْطَافَ الْهَاديِ وَلَا أَتْ أَوَّالُوْ الحمد لله رب العالمين له الحمد الحسن والثاناء الجميل واشدوا الله إله إلا الله وحده لا شريك له يقول الحق وهو يهدي السبيل واشدوا نمحمد العبد هو رسوله صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وأصحابه والتابعين لهم بحسانين إلى يوم الدين أما بعد إن شاء الله تعالى أريد today إن شاء الله تعالى to go through a very small part of the first verse of Surah Al-Qamar I just wanted to cover اقتربة الساعة and not even وانشق القمر just اقتربة الساعة before I do that this Surah why did it come down? what's the reason of its revelation? أنا سبن ماريكا رضي الله تعالى عنه he mentions أن أهل مكة the people of Mecca سألوا رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم they asked a prophet of Allah صلى الله عليه وسلم أن يريهوا أن يريهوا آية they asked a prophet they said يا رسول الله they asked a prophet يا رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم can you show us a sign that proves your prophecy that helps you and aids you and the prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم when he showed them was the splitting of the moon عليه صلى الله عليه وسلم so that's why it came down but that part of the ayah where he says وانشق القمر I want to speak about it maybe another time إنشاء الله تعالى after Ramadan is finished maybe another time to discuss it and to talk about it and all the doubts that the orientalists and the Christians and the disbelievers have thrown regarding this I want to respond to it there إنشاء الله تعالى but the first part is what I want to focus on okay also I just want to mention something else which his brothers and sisters this صورة يعني صورة القمر is a صورة which is مكية يعني it was from the صورة that came down in مكة okay it came down in مكة and from the virtues of this صورة is that بواقي دين الله رضي الله تعالى عنه who he mentioned أن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم كان يقرأ that the prophet used to recite it في العيدي إن صلاة العيدي the prophet ﷺ used to recite the first raka'a he would recite صورة القاف and the second raka'a he ﷺ would recite صورة القمر صورة اقتربة okay the name that's given to is two names صورة القمر some scholars they call it and that name of course is in the ayah one شقل قمر also some scholars they call it صورة اقتربة الساعة اما صورة اقتربة those are the two names that I'm given and the صورة is مكية صورة I already mentioned to you the reason why it came down the صورة it focuses on five main points the first thing it talks about is which is a part that I want to talk about today is that it tells the people that the hour is very very close and in there it also talks about the splitting of the moon as the first point which is a sign not only for the Muhammad's prophecy but it's also a sign for the hour as well يعني the splitting of the moon or the moon يعني it's a sign of the hour okay which الله تبارك و تعالى was trying to show this as a warning for the disbelievers of the truth and the resurrection and the day of judgment as الله تبارك و تعالى he mentions in the surah he says اقتربة الساعة و ان شق القمر و ان يروا آية يعرضوا يعرضوا و يقولوا و يقولوا سحر مستمر until الله تبارك و تعالى he says مخطعين إلى الدع يقولوا الكافيرون هذا يوم العسف that's the first part the second part that the surah talks about is again, warning the mushriqain and the disbelievers of the messengers صلى الله عليه وسلم those who don't believe in him that the punishments that have come to the previous disbelievers that were similar to you guys who disbelieved in نوح and عاد and the mood and قوموا نوط and قالوا فرعون الله mentions them سبحانه و تعالى so Allah تبارك و تعالى he said كدبت قابلهم قوم نوح فكدبوا عبدنا و قالوا مجنون وزدجر until Allah تبارك و تعالى spoke about يعني the other prophets يعني أكفاركم خير من أولائكم أم لكم براءة في الزبر أم يقولون نحن جميع منتصر سيهزم الجمع و يولون الدبر بل الساعة معدو والساعة أدها و أمر إن المجرمين في ظلال وسعر يوم يسحبون في النار على وجوه مدوقوا مستسقر يعني الله يكفي the third thing الله تبارك و تعالى he talks about in this sura is how Allah تبارك و تعالى has favored this this nation how Allah has favored this the the ummah by bringing them a Quran which is easy to digest the wording so easy the meaning of it so easy the fourth is الله سبحانه و تعالى has ability over everything and everything is going to come to an end okay when he chooses to make it come to an end that Allah has encompassed everything in knowledge ability strength and power when he says كل شيء خلقناه بقدر و ما أمرنا إلا وحدة كلمح بالبصر و لقد أهلكنا أشياءكم فهلم ذكر و كل شيء فعلوه في الزبر و كل صغير و كبير مستطر and then the fifth الله تبارك و تعالى he talks about the promise that he made for the righteous people the great reward that's waiting for them the high position that they're going to receive إن المتقين في جنات و نهر and then Allah says after that في مقع شد عند مليك مقتد five main points الله تبارك و تعالى talks about regarding this صورة صورة القمر but what I want to focus today on is just the part where Allah says إقتربة الساعة إقتربة الساعة as you can see brothers and sisters إقتربة الساعة is the first letter that was used in this صورة and there's a difference brothers and sisters between قروبت and إقتربة there's two different meanings how because the قاعدة نحوية the grammatical ruling is زيادة المدنة تدلغالبا على زيادة المعنة if a word has more letters than another word but they all come from the same root word but one has more letters the one that has more letters generally speaking has more meaning in it so here when الله تبارك و تعالى used إقتربة الساعة إقتربة الساعة and didn't say قربة الساعة and he didn't say like that what is the difference the difference is this one is actually أبلغو it's even more closer الله is saying the hour is excessively close the word الساعة it means قيامة الله used it سبحانه وتعالى like that in صورة الحج when Allah says يا أيها الناس تقو ربكم إنزلت الساعة شيء نعظيم الله رفوت إن الساعة إنزلت الساعة إنزلت الساعة الساعة يعني القيامة نسفز بس صورة الحج the reason why the قيامة is called الساعة الله knows best سبحانه وتعالى but some of the scholars they suggest the reason for it is because لقربها it's very close وتحقق و قوعها and that it's really gonna happen it's gonna happen oh yes it's gonna take place and not only is it going to take place but it's going to take place at an appointed time that's why time is used for it it also has other names قيامة has many other names this meaning of the hour being close الله has emphasized it in the Quran so has the prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم in the sunnah الله تبارك وتعالى he says أتى أمر الله فلا تستعجلوه in صورة النحن and what's amazing is that you actually find a lot of the times Allah mentions at the beginning of the surahs like for example صورة النحن الله says أتى أمر الله فلا تستعجلوه it's the first ayah at the beginning صورة القمر اقى ترابة الساعة it's the first صورة الأنبياء اقى ترابة للناس حسابهم وهم في غفلة المعرضون it's all at the beginning of the surahs that Allah is mentioning this سبحانه وتعالى also Allah mentions the surah to Najm which is in the first part of the surah it's ayah 57 الله says أزيفة الأزيفة الله says سبحانه وتعالى and also Allah says سبحانه وتعالى he says سبحانه وتعالى كلكم يعادوا يوم لا تستأخيرون عنه ساعة ولا تستقنمون when it comes when it comes الله سبحانه وتعالى will not delay it سبحانه وتعالى no and nobody will be brought forward it's at the time ولي ذلك the scholars like ابن القيم and others they mention تواة رت نصوص الكتاب when you look at the Quran and the surah by multitude many places it emphasizes on this point that the hour is about to happen it's going to take place if the Quran by multitude mass transmission the Quran does that and so does the hadith of the prophet peace be upon him know why are we taking it as though it's not can happen anytime soon الله says إنهم يرونوا بعيدة ونراه قريبا he's actually saying this to us they see it the people us what do we see as we see it as something that is فا قيامة يوم القيامة that day of judgment we see as to be something very far الله says إنهم يرونوا بعيدة they see it to be far ونراه قريبا we see it to be close الله تباركوا تعالى توليسون القرآن فهل ينظرون إلا الساعة أن تأتيهم بغتة فقد جاء أشاراتوها are they waiting for the hour to just come suddenly like that Adam the signs have already come the signs have already come to them الله said فقد جاء أشاراتوها the signs of it has already come the messengers صلى الله عليه وسلم as it was narrated he said صلى الله عليه وسلم in a narration that was mentioned by مساعد الساعدي ورضي الله تعالى عنه ده حديث الإمام البخاري ونريته لني صحيح أنا وصل الإمام مصر من ريته بخاري إن كتاب الرقاق he brings it قول النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم in the chapter where he said قول النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم أبعثت أنا والساعة وكهتيني أن الإمام مصر من بورتي إن كتاب الفتن أشاراتو الساعة أحمد مصر ونريته ده حديث حديث سهل ابن ساعد الساعدي رضي الله تعالى عنه سهل ابن ساعد الساعدي I heard the prophet say بعثت أنا والساعة كهذه أن الراوي of the hadith سليمان ابن مهران لأعمش actually told the people by how it was which is he emphasized and showed him يعني and the narration itself mentions that وقرنا بين السبابة والوسطة the prophet did this look at that brothers those two fingers he put it together what's this يعني the distance between these two that's the distance between the prophet as a prophet and the hour imagine that was 1400 something years ago yeah brothers and sisters now some of you might say to yourselves we had some narrations where the prophet said that the hour will not strike until this person passes away or something like that anyone who dies brothers and sisters his hour starts من ما تقامت قيامته that's how the hadith should be understood if you go into your grave that's your قيامة the قيامة is what's going to start for you then you're in another world in another place you're not in the dunya anymore your قيامة has started I'm going to stop there إن شاء الله anything which I have said that was wrong or incorrect is from me الشيطان when Allah has messaged Abu-3 from it سبحانك الله وبحمده الشهد ألا إله إلا إلا الله ها ستأفروا كوة أولي السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته how can
