Transcripts

بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِيْمِ

ٱلْحَمْدُ لِلّٰه وَ الصَّلاةُ وَ السَّلاَمُ عَلَى رَسُـوْلِ الله

وَعَلٰى اٰلِهٖ وَصَحْبِهٖ اَجْمَعِيْنَ

Welcome, Everybody to Amazed by the Qur'an.

A series in which I like talking to you about what I find amazing about the Qur'an.

One of the fascinations that I've had in this series

of course as you've noticed is ayah that are very similar to each other,

and we're going to continue along that track.

Two ayat that I'm going to compare similar expressions from,

one belonging to Surah Hud, the 11th surah,

and the other belonging to Surah Al Ankabut, the 29th surah.

Both talking about the great prophet Luth عَلَيْهِ ٱلسَّلَامُ or Lot as he's called in the Bible.

Only the first expression is what I'm going to compare in these two ayat.

وَلَمَّا جَاۤءَتْ رُسُلُنَا لُوْطًا سِيْۤءَ بِهِمْ (QS. Hud [11]: 77)

When our messengers finally came to Luth, he felt terrible because of them.

سِيْۤءَ بِهِمْ He found their presence terrible.

Same ayah repeats itself in Ankabut

وَلَمَّآ اَنْ جَاۤءَتْ رُسُلُنَا لُوْطًا سِيْۤءَ بِهِمْ (QS. Al Ankabut [29]: 33)

There's an additional an (اَنْ) here

The previous was وَلَمَّا جَاۤءَتْ

this one is وَلَمَّآ اَنْ جَاۤءَتْ رُسُلُنَا لُوْطًا سِيْۤءَ بِهِمْ

And the translation, even though in regular translations is identical,

the purpose of an (اَنْ) is actually to add even more long period or anticipation or eventuality,

So eventually, finally, after the longest wait

when the Angels finally arrived to Luth,

he felt terrible because of their presence.

So there's this longer duration and kind of this longer anticipation

of when is the help of Allah coming,

because Luth was frustrated, when will the help of Allah come.

But the way in which it came in the form of good-looking men made him even more upset. Right?

But the idea of that prolonging is mentioned in Ankabut, not mentioned in Hud.

This is actually something that I want to talk to you about.

You'll be surprised, the subject today is not Luth at all.

The subject isn't Luth at all.

The subject is our own Prophet ﷺ.

The thing to understand here is that the Quran tells the Prophet Muhammad عَلَيْهِ ٱلصَّلَاةُ وَٱلسَّلَامُ

stories of previous messengers to encourage him.

And to help him see his mission through their eyes.

Their legacies become his legacy.

Their words become his words.

That's why they're in the Quran.

Understand that in the Makkan experience when the Prophet is speaking,

He's speaking the Quran. There's no book in front of him, there's no paper in front of him.

And when he's talking about these prophets legacies,

people don't separate those legacies from him because they're coming out of his mouth.

He doesn't separate himself from them.

They're all one one body of people.

لَا نُفَرِّقُ بَيْنَ اَحَدٍ مِّنْهُمْۖ (Al Baqarah [2]: 136) (QS. Ali Imran [3]: 4)

And he so he identifies himself with the missions of these great prophets.

Now, having said that. Surah Hud is earlier in his mission.

And earlier in his mission Allah says, mentioning the story of Luth,

Sometimes what Allah brings as help, is not something you'll find pleasing.

but then what happens in Ankabut? Why this longer anticipation?

You know why? Because the entire Surah Al Ankabut, it began..

الۤمّۤ ۗ اَحَسِبَ النَّاسُ اَنْ يُّتْرَكُوْٓا اَنْ يَّقُوْلُوْٓا اٰمَنَّا وَهُمْ لَا يُفْتَنُوْنَ (QS. Al Ankabut [29]: 1-2)

Surah Al-Ankabut began when the muslims were starting to get tortured.

Things were getting really bad.

Khabbab ibn Arratt, the companion, was dragged onto burning coal,

made to lie down on it shirtless and they stood on him.

It melted the skin off of his back.

And he went in that state to the prophet ﷺ.

And said, "What have we done wrong that this should happen to us?"

"Why isn't the help of Allah coming?" And then this ayat came down.

And so when Surah Al-Ankabut came down, the first ayat are about patience to the believers.

And they're being told, "Do you think that you're just going to enter heaven without being tested?"

"People that came before you were tested too."

وَلَقَدْ فَتَنَّا الَّذِيْنَ مِنْ قَبْلِهِمْ (QS. Al Ankabut [29]: 3)

Then He starts talking about Nuh. No accident.

He starts talking about Noah. Why? With Nuh عَلَيْهِ ٱلسَّلَامُ, centuries.

Centuries. He had to be patient.

Then the help to Nuh عَلَيْهِ ٱلسَّلَامُ came in by water.

Then he talks about Ibrahim who had to take on his own people.

And then talks about Ibrahim and Ibrahim was saved from a fire.

Like Nuh was saved from water, Ibrahim was saved from fire.

Then after Nuh, He talks about Luth. And He says about Luth,

اِنِّيْ مُهَاجِرٌ اِلٰى رَبِّيْ ۗ (QS. Al Ankabut [29]: 26)

I'm making migration to my master, soon He will guide me.

Through Luth, the Prophet is being told, you're gonna migrate too, soon.

Nuh had to leave his people, Abraham had to leave his people.

Lot actually spelled out, "I am making migration."

Surah Al-Ankabut is almost right before the migration of the Prophet himself.

He's being told in code, through other prophetic legacies, that he's going to have to migrate.

Now in that case, when is the commandment coming? When can we finally get out of here?

The anticipation is so much higher, that when the story of Luth is being talked about ...

Eventually, when finally in the end our messengers came.

The intensity of the wait was highlighted more in this surah

because the entire surah is about waiting for relief from Allah to come.

That's the subject of the surah.

And through just that little an (اَنْ), the prophets ﷺ is being given relief, it will come.

It will come and it will come in unexpected ways.

But you just watch, you just wait. Subhaanallah.

So awesome.

So yes, it is the story of Luth عَلَيْهِ ٱلسَّلَامُ in both cases.

But through the story, what the Prophet is being told, that is what I find amazing in this passage.

بَارَكَ اللهُ لِيْ وَلَكُمْ وَالسَّلاَمُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَرَحْمَةُ اللهِ وَبَرَكَاتُهُ
