1. 0:00

   إِنَّ الْحَمْدَ لِلَّهِ نَحْمَدُهُ وَنَسْتَعِينُهُ وَنَسْتَغْفِرُهُ

   Zaista, hvala pripada Allahu; Njega hvalimo, od Njega pomoć tražimo i od Njega oprost molimo.

2. 0:43

   وَنَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ مِنْ شُرُورِ أَنْفُسِنَا وَمِنْ سَيِّئَاتِ أَعْمَالِنَا مَنْ يَهْدِهِ اللَّهُ فَلَا مُضِلَّ لَهُ، وَمَنْ يُضْلِلْ فَلَا هَادِيَ لَهُ

   Utječemo se Allahu od zla naših duša i od naših loših djela. Koga Allah uputi, njega niko ne može zavesti, a koga On ostavi u zabludi, njega niko ne može uputiti.

3. 0:54

   وَأَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ وَأَشْهَدُ أَنَّ سَيِّدَنَا وَنَبِيَّنَا مُحَمَّدًا عَبْدُهُ وَحَبِيبُهُ وَرَسُولُهُ

   Svjedočim da nema boga osim Allaha, Jedinog, Koji nema sudruga, i svjedočim da je naš prvak i vjerovjesnik Muhammed Njegov rob, miljenik i poslanik.

4. 1:04

   أَرْسَلَهُ اللَّهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى بِالْهُدَى وَدِينِ الْحَقِّ لِيُظْهِرَهُ عَلَى الدِّينِ كُلِّهِ وَلَوْ كَرِهَ الْكَافِرُونَ فَصَلَوَاتُ رَبِّي وَسَلَامُهُ عَلَيْهِ وَعَلَى آلِهِ وَصَحْبِهِ وَمَنْ سَارَ عَلَى نَهْجِهِ وَاقْتَفَى أَثَرَهُ إِلَى يَوْمِ الدِّينِ

   Allah, Blagoslovljeni i Uzvišeni, poslao ga je s uputom i pravom vjerom da je uzdigne iznad svih vjera, makar to bilo mrsko nevjernicima. Neka su salavati i selami moga Gospodara na njega i na njegovu porodicu i ashabe i na one koji idu njegovim putem i slijede njegove stope do Sudnjeg dana.

5. 1:21

   رِضْوَانُ اللَّهِ تَعَالَى عَلَيْنَا وَعَلَيْهِمْ أَجْمَعِينَ ثُمَّ أَمَّا بَعْدُ

   Neka je Allahovo zadovoljstvo na nama i na svima njima. A zatim:

6. 1:25

   Poštovana braćo, cijenjeni mu'mini! Svaka sura u Kur'anu časnom je zasebna priča. 114 sura – svaka od njih predstavlja najljepšu bašču, koja sa svojom ljepotom, sadržinom, poukama i porukama, i konstrukcijom izražaja i riječi predstavlja zasebnost.

7. 2:05

   I zato vjernik iščitava, pamti i stalno se druži sa Allahovom, subhanehu ve te'ala, Knjigom, i na taj način napaja svoju dušu i svoje srce sa ovog najljepšeg, najbogatijeg, nepresušnog, savršenog izvora.

8. 2:32

   Uzvišeni Allah, dželle ve ala, kaže u jednoj od Svojih časnih sura, čije ćemo ukratko pouke i poruke prenijeti tokom današnje hutbe: Bismillahir-Rahmanir-Rahim.

9. 2:50

   „La uksimu bi hazel-beled“ – kunem se ovim gradom – „ve ente hillun bi hazel-beled“ – u kojem ti živiš, ti, Muhammede, u tom gradu živiš.

10. 3:10

    Čovjeka smo zaista stvorili da se trudi i da ulaže napor. Pa zar taj čovjek misli da niko nije moćan i kadar nad njim?

11. 3:55

    Govori: „Utrošio sam nebrojeno i mnogobrojno blago svoje.“ Zar on misli da ga niko ne vidi?

12. 4:10

    أَلَمْ نَجْعَلْ لَهُ عَيْنَيْنِ

    „Zar Mi njemu nismo dali oka dva…“ (El-Beled, 8)

13. 4:14

    Zar nismo čovjeku dali dva oka? „Ve lisanen ve šefetejn“ – jezik i dvije usne. „Ve hedejnahun-nedždejn“ – i ukazali mu na put dobra i zla.

14. 4:34

    „Felaktehamel-akabeh“ – pa zašto se čovjek ne suočava sa poteškoćama? „Ve ma edrake mel-akabeh“ – koje su to poteškoće i izazovi?

15. 4:49

    „Fekku rekabeh“ – roba ropstva osloboditi. Ili nahraniti onog kome je to najpotrebnije, kada je kriza i kada je velika pustoš,

16. 5:16

    „jetimen za makrabeh“ – siroče iz tvoje rodbine – „ev miskinen za metrabeh“ – ili nekog nevoljnika, miskina, siromaha, koji se zbog siromaštva za zemlju zalijepio i ne može da se pomjeri.

17. 5:37

    A osim toga, ta kategorija ljudi vjeruje u Allaha, dželle šanuhu, preporučuje strpljenje i preporučuje milost. „Ulaike ashabul-mejmeneh.“

18. 5:58

    Ti su desni, ti su sretni, ti su uspjeli, oni koji imaju ova svojstva. „وَالَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا بِآيَاتِنَا هُمْ أَصْحَابُ الْمَشْأَمَةِ“ – a oni koji ne vjeruju u Allahove ajete, oni su nesretni, oni su baksuzni, oni su lijevi. „عَلَيْهِمْ نَارٌ مُؤْصَدَةٌ“ – oni će biti stanovnici džehennemske vatre, i vatra će biti, ili vrata džehennemska će nad njima biti zatvorena.

19. 6:33

    Braćo moja draga, poštovani mu'mini, ovdje Allah, subhanehu ve te'ala, objašnjava suštinu, bit čovjeka, i objašnjava sve kategorije koje postoje u životu, na ovom svijetu, i podsjeća nas na mnogobrojne blagodati koje nam je On, subhanehu ve te'ala, dao.

20. 6:58

    I podsjeća nas na završetak našeg putovanja. A Allahovo izražavanje i Allahov govor je najljepši i najjednostavniji. Na samom početku Allah se kune.

21. 7:18

    Allah govori istinu – „وَمَنْ أَصْدَقُ مِنَ اللَّهِ قِيلًا“ – stalno i uvijek. I Njegov govor je istina i pravda. Kada govori o nekim vijestima, taj govor je istinit, a kada Allah govori o propisima, Njegov govor je pravedan. Ali da bi nam objasnio važnost ovoga što nam priča, da nam dodatno zainteresira naša srca i um, On se kune: „La uksimu bi hazel-beled“ – kunem se ovim gradom, kunem se Mekkom.

22. 7:58

    Najvažniji je grad, grad kojeg je Allah svetim i posebnim učinio onoga dana kada je stvorio nebesa i Zemlju. Kada ljudi nije postojalo, kada je stvorio nebesa i Zemlju, Mekka je bila obilježena i Mekka je svetom tada proglašena. I zato ljudi vole Mekku, i zato vjernici vole Mekku, zato svi mi čeznemo za Mekkom, jer je berićet nad tim gradom Gospodar i Stvoritelj svih svjetova prosuo.

23. 8:43

    I u njoj su hadž obavljali svi Allahovi poslanici, i najbolji ljudi kroz Mekku prošli. Mekka ima posebne propise. Nećemo da duljimo, jer nije prilika za tu temu.

24. 8:59

    Ono što je dodatno učinilo vrijednim taj grad jeste to što ti, Muhammede, živiš u njemu, i to što si se ti, Muhammede, rodio u Mekki – ti, kao najbolji čovjek, ti koga je Allah odabrao i kome je Allah objavu poslao i Kur'an dao. I jedino je tebi dozvolio borbu u Mekki za vrijeme osvajanja Mekke, i njen hurmet i svetost nakon tog momenta ponovo se vratila,

25. 9:42

    i tako je to do Sudnjega dana. Allah se kune roditeljem i onim što roditelj rađa. Allah se kune čovjekom.

26. 9:57

    A ono čime se Allah kune, to je važno. On se ovdje kune stvorenjima; On ima pravo da se kune čime On hoće. Ali kada se On zakune nekim stvorenjem, onda treba to da nam privuče pažnju, da znamo da je to čime se On kune mnogo važno.

27. 10:23

    Pogledajte koliko Allah čovjeka poštuje, koliko tebe poštuje: tobom se kune. To znači da trebaš da razmisliš o savršenstvu svoga bića i o savršenstvu uloge koju ti je Allah, subhanehu ve te'ala, dao.

28. 10:42

    Čovjek je, pored mnogobrojnih stvorenja, najvažniji. Nebesa i Zemlja su veći od čovjeka, nebeska tijela mnogobrojna, mora su moćnija od čovjeka, mnogobrojni drugi svjetovi koji postoje moćniji su pojedinačno od čovjeka, ali je Allah čovjeka učinio centralnom figurom i centralnim stvorenjem u svemiru i sve mu potčinio, da bude ponosan i sretan tom odlikom, tom čašću koju nam je Allah, subhanehu ve te'ala, dao.

29. 11:25

    A onda sam proces stvaranja čovjeka – kako je to Allah odredio da čovjek bude stvoren od kapljice i da bude nejak i potreban. Pa je odredio da se hrani i da bitiše u utrobi svoje majke.

30. 11:49

    Pa kada se rodi, čovjek je potreban svojih roditelja, pa mu je Allah potčinio roditelje da ga s ljubavlju podižu. A onda, kada odraste, onda i osjeti moć i snagu, onda se uzoholi i zaboravi sve to.

31. 12:11

    A nakon toga ponovo dolazi slabost i nejač, i halovi i potrebe. Pa se onda ponovo čovjek snuždi. Zbog čega se Allah kune?

32. 12:28

    Da bi nam ukazao na suštinu našeg života. Zbog čega smo stvoreni? Odgovor na ovu zakletvu: Mi smo čovjeka stvorili da se trudi. Mi smo čovjeka stvorili da… stvorili smo ga na ovom svijetu, koji je svojevrsna teškoća i tegoba.

33. 12:54

    Ovaj svijet je protkan tegobama i teškoćama. Čovjek se rađa s teškoćom, majka ga rađa uz porođajne muke. I nailazi čovjek tokom života na razno-razne izazove i iskušenja.

34. 13:12

    Mora da se trudi, mora da se suočava, ali uz istinu ovaj život ima slast, ima smisla, ima ljepotu – uz pokornost Uzvišenom Allahu, subhanehu ve te'ala.

35. 13:28

    Ali poruka ovog ajeta jeste da čovjek treba da se trudi, da ulaže napor i da bude vrijedan. Musliman ne smije da bude lijen, musliman ne smije da bude neorganizovan, musliman ne smije da bude nepismen, musliman ne smije da bude slabić.

36. 13:49

    Musliman ne smije da bude ponižen. Musliman ne smije da bude donji. Čovjek ne smije da bude donji. A prije svega, čovjek je čovjek kada prihvati istinu Stvoritelja i kada je na visini zadatka zbog kojeg ga je Uzvišeni Allah, subhanehu ve te'ala, stvorio.

37. 14:08

    To je naša uloga. Ne može ništa da se desi samo po sebi. Ne dešavaju se stvari čudima i trikovima, na dodir i na treptaj oka – ne. Mora proces da prođe i mora trud da se uloži.

38. 14:30

    Allah Resulullahu, sallallahu alejhi ve sellem, kao čovjeku koga je najviše volio, nije mu dao zajednicu, uspjehe, pobjedu bez truda i napora. Nego se on založio i potrudio, i organizovao, i napatio se, i imetak uložio, i snagu uložio, i hidžru učinio – petsto kilometara na jahalici, po suncu, kroz pustinju – i zajednicu organizovao, i pancir obukao, i vojsku poveo, i ranjen bio, i krv mu potekla, i iz Taifa bio protjeran.

39. 15:14

    Da bi mu Allah, subhanehu ve te'ala, poslije za kratko vrijeme dao da mu cijelo Arabijsko poluostrvo dođe na noge i da postane prvi čovjek Arabijskog poluotoka. Čovjek je stvoren da se trudi; čovjek mora da bude vrijedan, kreposan u svemu, za dobro ovog svijeta i za dobro budućeg svijeta. A onda Allah spominje ono što je u biti čovjeka: to je nezahvalnost, i oholost, i osionost.

40. 15:52

    Kada se on osjeti, kada dostigne vrhunac snage i moći – zar čovjek ikada može da pomisli, kako može čovjek, u stvari, da pomisli da niko nije jači od njega i da niko nije nad njim moćniji?

41. 16:11

    Tada to čovjek ponekad pomisli uz sredstva, uz materijalnu, tu cijelu opremu, uz vojsku, uz razno-razna obezbjeđenja i tako dalje, uzoholi se, uz [nejasno] opremu, uzoholi se čovjek, pa pomisli da je gospodar svemira.

42. 16:35

    I onda u toj osionosti kaže: „Ja sam taj koji mogu da dadem kome hoću da živi, a kome ja spriječim [nejasno], on će da umre.“ Pa određuju razno-razne blokade određenim skupinama i tako dalje.

43. 16:54

    Ko je čovjek? Kako ima pravo čovjek da zabrani hranu i piće drugim ljudima koji su iz te kategorije? Nema pravo. Zato Allah, subhanehu ve te'ala, nas na kraju podsjeća na vjerovanje u Sudnji dan i na dan obračuna zbog svih tih takvih ponašanja.

44. 17:24

    [nejasno] nas podsjeća na blagodati: zar čovjeku nismo dali dva oka? Jesmo li razmišljali, braćo moja draga, o blagodatima očiju, o blagodatima vida, o blagodatima jezika i govora?

45. 17:45

    Kako se govor stvara i kako čovjek govori… Kada roditelju neko dijete zakasni da priča, 3–4 godine napuni, uhvati ga panika. A onako, kada dijete progovori samo po sebi, onom ustaljenom nekom praksom, mi mislimo: to sve mora tako, normalno. Nije, to je blagodat od Allaha. Zamisli one koji su nijemi, koji su gluhi, koji su slijepi.

46. 18:21

    „Ve šefetejn“ – dvije usne. I kako je inače Allah čovjeka stvorio savršeno. Ne postoji ljepši oblik koji bi mogao iko da zamisli, u kojem bi mogao čovjek da izgleda ljepše od ovog oblika kojeg je Allah izabrao. I uputili smo ga na put dobra i zla. I onda Allah, dželle šanuhu, kaže: zašto se čovjek ne suočava sa poteškoćama, zašto se ne trudi da čini dobra djela? Dobra djela iziskuju trud i napor. A koja su to dobra djela? Onda je Allah naveo nekoliko primjera:

47. 19:00

    da nahraniš, kada je kriza, siromaha, siroče; da oslobodiš čovjeka ropstva. Allah je ljude slobodnim stvorio. Kada je Adem došao na ovaj svijet, nisu došli robovi sa njim da ga služe, da mu serviraju njegove potrebe, nego je Adem bio i niko više, i njegova hanuma Havva. Slobodan je čovjek,

48. 19:30

    Božijom odredbom, Božijom odredbom i Božijim stvaranjem. I niko nema pravo da čovjeka porobi. Jedino Kome možemo da budemo robovi, to je Gospodar svjetova. A sva borba, nažalost, je u tome da se porobe pojedinci, zajednice i narodi, da robuju nekome i nečemu drugome mimo Allaha, subhanehu ve te'ala.

49. 19:57

    A to je oduzimanje slobode čovjeku kao jedne specifičnosti kojom je Uzvišeni Allah, subhanehu ve te'ala, čovjeka posebno odlikovao. I onda Allah, subhanehu ve te'ala, na kraju dijeli čovječanstvo u dvije kategorije:

50. 20:19

    desne, sretne – one koji su svjesni sebe i koji su svjesni suštine života, zašto su ovdje,

51. 20:33

    koji su svjesni svojih blagodati od Allaha: oči, i sluh, i vid – sve ti je to Allah dao da spoznaš istinu i da činiš dobra djela. A teško onome ko to upotrijebi za haram stvari, koristi se Božijim blagodatima u nepokornosti Stvoritelju tih blagodati.

52. 20:53

    To je velika nepravda. A druga kategorija su nesretni i baksuzni, oni koji su odbili istinu, i oni koji su zanegirali blagodati. Oni će na ahiretu imati težak položaj, težak završetak:

53. 21:15

    džehennemska vatra koja će biti nad njima zatvorena. Zatvorena džehennemska vrata, zatvorena iza njih i iznad njih. Pogledajte, braćo moja, poštovani mu'mini: kratka sura, kroz koju nas Uzvišeni Allah provede od početka stvaranja do kraja našeg putovanja.

54. 21:38

    I uzgred nam pomene zašto smo tu, šta treba da radimo, podsjeti nas na blagodati. I na kraju spomene epilog našeg bitisanja, postojanja, kretanja i putovanja.

55. 21:54

    A to je vječnost. A pametni su oni koji shvate ovo, koji shvate vječnost, a ovaj prolazni period koriste da obezbijede što ljepši status u vječnosti.

56. 22:12

    Jer vječnost nikada ne prolazi. I uz to, treba napomenuti da je vjernicima i mu'minima i zahvalnima na dunjaluku najljepše. I oni se najljepše osjećaju, i duše i srca su im najsmirenija.

57. 22:37

    U to nema nikakve sumnje, jer srce se ne može smiriti uz grijehe i nepokornost Gospodaru svih svjetova. Gospodaru dragi, molimo Te svim Tvojim imenima i uzvišenim svojstvima da nas pomogneš, da se do kraja izborimo za našu slobodu, da do kraja ostanemo ustrajni na Pravom putu.

58. 23:02

    Molimo Te, Gospodaru, da spustiš Svoju milost i da uputiš muslimane, da ih vratiš Pravome putu, Tvojoj Knjizi i sunnetu Resulullaha, sallallahu alejhi ve sellem; da uputiš zabludjele ljude, da izliječiš bolesne, da usrećiš nesretne, da pomogneš ponižene, one kojima je pomoć potrebna; da spriječiš zlikovce da maltretiraju, uništavaju i kažnjavaju nevine ljude, i da se smiluješ svim šehidima

59. 23:41

    ummeta Muhammeda, sallallahu alejhi ve sellem, posebno šehidima Gaze, i da njihovu žrtvu učiniš zalogom za pobjedu ummeta Muhammeda, sallallahu alejhi ve sellem. Amin, ja Rabbel-alemin.

1. 0:00

   إِنَّ الْحَمْدَ لِلَّهِ نَحْمَدُهُ وَنَسْتَعِينُهُ وَنَسْتَغْفِرُهُ

   Indeed, all praise belongs to Allah; we praise Him, seek His help and ask His forgiveness.

2. 0:43

   وَنَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ مِنْ شُرُورِ أَنْفُسِنَا وَمِنْ سَيِّئَاتِ أَعْمَالِنَا مَنْ يَهْدِهِ اللَّهُ فَلَا مُضِلَّ لَهُ، وَمَنْ يُضْلِلْ فَلَا هَادِيَ لَهُ

   We seek refuge in Allah from the evils of our souls and from our bad deeds. Whomever Allah guides, none can lead astray, and whomever He leaves astray, none can guide.

3. 0:54

   وَأَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ وَأَشْهَدُ أَنَّ سَيِّدَنَا وَنَبِيَّنَا مُحَمَّدًا عَبْدُهُ وَحَبِيبُهُ وَرَسُولُهُ

   I bear witness that there is no god but Allah alone, Who has no partner, and I bear witness that our master and prophet Muhammad is His servant, His beloved and His messenger.

4. 1:04

   أَرْسَلَهُ اللَّهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى بِالْهُدَى وَدِينِ الْحَقِّ لِيُظْهِرَهُ عَلَى الدِّينِ كُلِّهِ وَلَوْ كَرِهَ الْكَافِرُونَ فَصَلَوَاتُ رَبِّي وَسَلَامُهُ عَلَيْهِ وَعَلَى آلِهِ وَصَحْبِهِ وَمَنْ سَارَ عَلَى نَهْجِهِ وَاقْتَفَى أَثَرَهُ إِلَى يَوْمِ الدِّينِ

   Allah, Blessed and Exalted, sent him with guidance and the religion of truth to make it prevail over all religion, even if the disbelievers dislike it. May the blessings and peace of my Lord be upon him and upon his family and companions and upon those who follow his way and tread in his footsteps until the Day of Judgement.

5. 1:21

   رِضْوَانُ اللَّهِ تَعَالَى عَلَيْنَا وَعَلَيْهِمْ أَجْمَعِينَ ثُمَّ أَمَّا بَعْدُ

   May the pleasure of Allah the Exalted be upon us and upon all of them. To proceed:

6. 1:25

   Respected brothers, esteemed believers (mu'minun)! Every surah in the noble Qur'an is a story of its own. 114 surahs – each of them is the most beautiful garden, which with its beauty, its content, its lessons and messages, and the construction of its expression and words, stands as something unique.

7. 2:05

   And that is why the believer reads, memorises and constantly keeps company with the Book of Allah, subhanahu wa ta'ala, and in this way quenches his soul and his heart from this most beautiful, richest, inexhaustible, perfect source.

8. 2:32

   Allah the Exalted, jalla wa 'ala, says in one of His noble surahs, whose lessons and messages we will briefly convey during today's hutba (Friday sermon): Bismillahir-Rahmanir-Rahim.

9. 2:50

   "La uqsimu bi hadhal-balad" – I swear by this city – "wa anta hillun bi hadhal-balad" – in which you live, you, O Muhammad, live in that city.

10. 3:10

    We have truly created man to strive and to exert effort. Does that man think that no one has power and ability over him?

11. 3:55

    He says: "I have spent countless and abundant treasures of mine." Does he think that no one sees him?

12. 4:10

    أَلَمْ نَجْعَلْ لَهُ عَيْنَيْنِ

    “Have We not made for him two eyes…” (Al-Balad 90:8)

13. 4:14

    Have We not given man two eyes? "Wa lisanan wa shafatayn" – a tongue and two lips. "Wa hadaynahun-najdayn" – and shown him the path of good and evil.

14. 4:34

    "Falaqtahamal-'aqabah" – so why does man not confront the difficulties? "Wa ma adraka mal-'aqabah" – what are those difficulties and challenges?

15. 4:49

    "Fakku raqabah" – to free a slave from slavery. Or to feed the one who needs it most, when there is a crisis and great devastation,

16. 5:16

    "yatiman dha maqrabah" – an orphan from your kin – "aw miskinan dha matrabah" – or some unfortunate person, a miskin, a poor man, who because of poverty is stuck to the ground and cannot move.

17. 5:37

    And besides that, this category of people believes in Allah, jalla sha'nuhu, enjoins patience and enjoins mercy. "Ula'ika ashabul-maymanah."

18. 5:58

    They are those of the right, they are the happy ones, they are the successful ones, those who have these qualities. "وَالَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا بِآيَاتِنَا هُمْ أَصْحَابُ الْمَشْأَمَةِ" – and those who disbelieve in Allah's verses, they are the unhappy ones, they are the ill-fated ones, they are those of the left. "عَلَيْهِمْ نَارٌ مُؤْصَدَةٌ" – they will be the inhabitants of the fire of Jahannam (Hellfire), and the fire will be, or the gates of Jahannam will be closed over them.

19. 6:33

    My dear brothers, respected believers, here Allah, subhanahu wa ta'ala, explains the essence, the core of man, and explains all the categories that exist in life, in this world, and reminds us of the many blessings that He, subhanahu wa ta'ala, has given us.

20. 6:58

    And He reminds us of the end of our journey. And Allah's expression and Allah's speech is the most beautiful and the simplest. At the very beginning Allah swears an oath.

21. 7:18

    Allah speaks the truth – "وَمَنْ أَصْدَقُ مِنَ اللَّهِ قِيلًا" – constantly and always. And His speech is truth and justice. When He speaks of certain news, that speech is true, and when Allah speaks of rulings, His speech is just. But in order to explain to us the importance of what He is telling us, to further engage our hearts and minds, He swears: "La uqsimu bi hadhal-balad" – I swear by this city, I swear by Makkah.

22. 7:58

    It is the most important city, the city that Allah made sacred and special on the day He created the heavens and the Earth. When people did not yet exist, when He created the heavens and the Earth, Makkah was marked out and Makkah was declared sacred then. And that is why people love Makkah, and that is why believers love Makkah, that is why we all long for Makkah, because the Lord and Creator of all the worlds has poured out blessing (barakah) upon that city.

23. 8:43

    And in it all of Allah's prophets performed the Hajj, and the best of people passed through Makkah. Makkah has special rulings. We will not dwell on it, because this is not the occasion for that topic.

24. 8:59

    What made that city even more valuable is that you, O Muhammad, live in it, and that you, O Muhammad, were born in Makkah – you, as the best of men, you whom Allah chose and to whom Allah sent revelation and gave the Qur'an. And to you alone He permitted fighting in Makkah at the time of the conquest of Makkah, and its inviolability and sanctity returned again after that moment,

25. 9:42

    and so it is until the Day of Judgement. Allah swears by the parent and by what the parent begets. Allah swears by man.

26. 9:57

    And whatever Allah swears by is important. Here He swears by created things; He has the right to swear by whatever He wills. But when He swears by some created thing, that should draw our attention, so that we know that what He swears by is very important.

27. 10:23

    Look how much Allah honours man, how much He honours you: He swears by you. That means you should reflect on the perfection of your being and on the perfection of the role that Allah, subhanahu wa ta'ala, has given you.

28. 10:42

    Man, among the countless creatures, is the most important. The heavens and the Earth are bigger than man, the celestial bodies are countless, the seas are mightier than man, the many other worlds that exist are each individually mightier than man, but Allah made man the central figure and the central creature in the universe and subjected everything to him, so that he would be proud and happy with that distinction, that honour which Allah, subhanahu wa ta'ala, has given us.

29. 11:25

    And then the very process of man's creation – how Allah decreed that man be created from a drop and be weak and needy. And He decreed that he be nourished and exist in his mother's womb.

30. 11:49

    And when he is born, man is in need of his parents, so Allah made his parents subservient to him, to raise him with love. And then, when he grows up and feels power and strength, he becomes arrogant and forgets all of that.

31. 12:11

    And after that weakness and frailty come again, and ailments and needs. And then man becomes downcast again. Why does Allah swear an oath?

32. 12:28

    To point us to the essence of our life. Why were we created? The answer to this oath: We created man to strive. We created man to… We created him in this world, which is a kind of hardship and toil.

33. 12:54

    This world is interwoven with hardships and difficulties. Man is born with difficulty; his mother gives birth to him with the pains of labour. And throughout his life man encounters all sorts of challenges and trials.

34. 13:12

    He must strive, he must confront, but with the truth this life has sweetness, has meaning, has beauty – with obedience to Allah the Exalted, subhanahu wa ta'ala.

35. 13:28

    But the message of this verse is that man should strive, exert effort and be diligent. A Muslim must not be lazy, a Muslim must not be disorganised, a Muslim must not be illiterate, a Muslim must not be a weakling.

36. 13:49

    A Muslim must not be humiliated. A Muslim must not be the lowly one. Man must not be the lowly one. And above all, a man is a man when he accepts the truth of the Creator and when he rises to the task for which Allah the Exalted, subhanahu wa ta'ala, created him.

37. 14:08

    That is our role. Nothing can happen by itself. Things do not happen through miracles and tricks, at a touch and in the blink of an eye – no. A process must be gone through and effort must be invested.

38. 14:30

    Allah did not give the Messenger of Allah, sallallahu alayhi wa sallam (peace be upon him), the man He loved most, a community, successes and victory without effort and toil. Rather, he committed himself and strove, and organised, and suffered, and invested wealth, and invested strength, and made the Hijra – five hundred kilometres on a mount, in the sun, through the desert – and organised a community, and put on armour, and led an army, and was wounded, and his blood flowed, and he was driven out of Ta'if.

39. 15:14

    So that Allah, subhanahu wa ta'ala, after a short time, would make the whole Arabian Peninsula come to his feet and make him the foremost man of the Arabian Peninsula. Man was created to strive; man must be diligent, virtuous in everything, for the good of this world and for the good of the world to come. And then Allah mentions what is in the nature of man: that is ingratitude, and arrogance, and insolence.

40. 15:52

    When he feels himself, when he reaches the peak of strength and power – can man ever think, how can man actually think that no one is stronger than him and that no one has more power over him?

41. 16:11

    A man sometimes thinks that when he has the means, the material things, all that equipment, an army, all kinds of security and so on; he becomes arrogant, with [unclear] equipment, man becomes arrogant and thinks that he is the lord of the universe.

42. 16:35

    And then in that insolence he says: "I am the one who can grant life to whomever I want, and whomever I prevent [unclear] will die." And so they impose all kinds of blockades on certain groups and so on.

43. 16:54

    Who is man? What right does man have to deny food and drink to other people who are in that category? He has no right. That is why Allah, subhanahu wa ta'ala, at the end reminds us of belief in the Day of Judgement and the day of reckoning for all such behaviour.

44. 17:24

    [unclear] reminds us of the blessings: have We not given man two eyes? Have we reflected, my dear brothers, on the blessings of the eyes, the blessings of sight, the blessings of the tongue and speech?

45. 17:45

    How speech is formed and how man speaks… When some child is late in starting to talk, turns 3–4, the parent panics. But otherwise, when a child starts speaking by itself, in that usual way, we think: all of that is just how it has to be, normal. It is not; it is a blessing from Allah. Think of those who are mute, who are deaf, who are blind.

46. 18:21

    "Wa shafatayn" – two lips. And how perfectly Allah has generally created man. There is no more beautiful form that anyone could imagine, in which man could look more beautiful than this form which Allah chose. And We guided him to the path of good and evil. And then Allah, jalla sha'nuhu, says: why does man not confront the difficulties, why does he not strive to do good deeds? Good deeds require effort and toil. And what are those good deeds? Then Allah gave a few examples:

47. 19:00

    to feed, in a time of crisis, the poor man, the orphan; to free a man from slavery. Allah created people free. When Adam came into this world, no slaves came with him to serve him, to cater to his needs; rather, there was Adam and no one else, and his wife Hawwa (Eve). Man is free,

48. 19:30

    by Allah's decree, by Allah's decree and by Allah's creation. And no one has the right to enslave a man. The only One whose servants we may be is the Lord of the worlds. And the whole struggle, unfortunately, is about enslaving individuals, communities and nations, making them slaves to someone and something other than Allah, subhanahu wa ta'ala.

49. 19:57

    And that is taking away from man freedom as a distinctive trait with which Allah the Exalted, subhanahu wa ta'ala, especially distinguished man. And then Allah, subhanahu wa ta'ala, at the end divides humanity into two categories:

50. 20:19

    those of the right, the happy ones – those who are aware of themselves and aware of the essence of life, of why they are here,

51. 20:33

    who are aware of their blessings from Allah: eyes, and hearing, and sight – Allah gave you all of that so that you would come to know the truth and do good deeds. And woe to the one who uses it for haram things, who uses Allah's blessings in disobedience to the Creator of those blessings.

52. 20:53

    That is a great injustice. And the second category are the unhappy and ill-fated, those who rejected the truth and those who denied the blessings. In the Hereafter (akhirah) they will have a hard position, a hard ending:

53. 21:15

    the fire of Jahannam which will be closed over them. The gates of Jahannam closed, closed behind them and above them. Look, my brothers, respected believers: a short surah, through which Allah the Exalted leads us from the beginning of creation to the end of our journey.

54. 21:38

    And along the way He mentions to us why we are here, what we should do, and reminds us of the blessings. And at the end He mentions the epilogue of our being, our existence, our movement and our journey.

55. 21:54

    And that is eternity. And the wise are those who understand this, who understand eternity, and use this transient period to secure the best possible status in eternity.

56. 22:12

    Because eternity never passes. And along with that, it should be noted that the believers, the mu'minun and those who are grateful, have the best life in the dunya (this world) too. And they feel the best, and their souls and hearts are the most at peace.

57. 22:37

    There is no doubt about that, because the heart cannot find peace with sins and disobedience to the Lord of all the worlds. Dear Lord, we ask You by all Your names and exalted attributes to help us, to fight for our freedom to the end, to remain steadfast on the Straight Path to the end.

58. 23:02

    We ask You, O Lord, to send down Your mercy and to guide the Muslims, to return them to the Straight Path, to Your Book and to the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allah, sallallahu alayhi wa sallam; to guide people who have gone astray, to heal the sick, to make the unhappy happy, to help the humiliated, those who need help; to stop the evildoers from abusing, destroying and punishing innocent people, and to have mercy on all the martyrs (shuhada)

59. 23:41

    of the ummah of Muhammad, sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, especially the martyrs of Gaza, and to make their sacrifice a pledge of victory for the ummah of Muhammad, sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. Amin, ya Rabbal-'alamin.
