THE FADAK SERMON – PART 16

123- Verily, by Allah, I can see that you have settled into a life of ease, and you have removed someone more deserving of expansion and restraint from their rightful position, as you turned towards comfort

 

أَلا وَ قَدْ أَرى وَ اللّهِ اَنْ قَدْ اَخْلَدْتُمْ اِلَى الْخَفْضِ، وَ اَبْعَدْتُمْ مَنْ هُوَ اَحَقُّ بِالْبَسْطِ وَ الْقَبْضِ، وَ رَكَنْتُمْ اِلَى الدَّعَةِ

 

124- And you have sought narrowness over abundance, thus deviating from the path of faith, and You have forsaken what you were entrusted to preserve, and you have reversed that which you had easily acquired.

 

وَ نَجَوْتُمْ بِالضِّيقِ مِنَ السَّعَةِ، فَعُجْتُمْ عَنِ الدِّينِ وَ مَجَجْتُمُ الَّذِى وَعَيْتُمْ وَ دَسَعْتُمُ الَّذِى سَوَّغْتُمْ

 

125- So “if you disbelieve, along with everyone on earth, then know that Allah is indeed Free of all needs, Praiseworthy.”

 

فَـ {إِنْ تَكْفُرُوا اَنْتُمْ وَ مَنْ فِى الْأَرْضِ جَمِيعاً فَاِنَّ اللّهَ لَغَنِىٌّ حَمِيدٌ}

 

126- “Has the news not reached you of those before you, the people of Noah, ‘Ad, Thamud, and those after them? None knows them except Allah. Their messengers came to them with clear signs, but they put their hands to their mouths and said, ‘We indeed reject what you have been sent with, and we are in profound doubt about what you invite us to.” (Qur’an, Surah Ibrahim/ 14:8-9)

 

أَلَمْ يَأْتِكُمْ نَبَأُ الَّذِينَ مِنْ قَبْلِكُمْ قَوْمِ نُوحٍ وَ عادٍ وَ ثَمُودَ وَ الَّذِينَ مِنْ بَعْدِهِمْ لايَعْلَمُهُمْ اِلَّا اللّهُ، جاءَتْهُمْ رُسُلُهُمْ بِالْبَيِّناتِ فَرَدُّوا اَيْدِيَهُمْ فى اَفْواهِهِمْ وَ قالُوا اِنّا كَفَرْنا بِما اُرْسِلْتُمْ بِهِ وَ اِنّا لَفِى شَكٍّ مِمّا تَدْعُونَنا اِلَيْهِ مُرِيبٍ
