Qur'an 30 for 30

 Alright everyone, Assalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuhu.  A'udhu billahi minash shaitanir rajim. Bismillahir rahmanir raheem.  Alhamdulillahi rabbil alameen. Wa ala irdwani lillahi ala al-zalimeen.  wa ala akhirati wa al-mutaqim. Allahumma salli wa sallim wa baraka  ara abdika wa rasulika Muhammadin salallahu alayhi wa sallam  wa ala alihi wa sahbihi wa sallim tasneemin kathira.  Alhamdulillah, we are back for Qur'an 30 for 30  and we have our first repeat guest.  We have Ustaz Tasneem Al-Qeek, soon to be Doctor of Tasneem Al-Qeek inshaAllah,  joining us tonight for this juz.  And I want to start off with another bushra, another glad tidings of this era.  Great news that we had a sister that attended Qur'an 30 for 30.  She's been attending, Sister Andrea from Ohio.  And she was actually in the comments yesterday inshaAllah,  about four hours ago took shahadah as well over Zoom, alhamdulillah.  So Sister Andrea, may Allah bless you.  I know she's watching tonight actually.  May Allah bless you, keep you sincere, steadfast and firm.  So please pray for her to be from the people of Qur'an  and to have beauty and ease in this journey of hers.  Allahumma ameen.  So tonight is one of my, it is actually probably my favorite juz  because there are two very particular sahaba stories  that are very touching in this story.  And if you realize the first third of the Qur'an is actually the story of Islam unfolding.  Alhamdulillah, that's something that one of my teachers pointed out to me early on.  He said the first third of the Qur'an is the story of Islam.  And then you kind of have all of the things that come after that,  that speak to the admonitions and the laws and the development  and things that we can take, which shows you the centrality of the seerah  of the Prophet salAllahu alayhi wa sallam,  the biography of the Prophet alayhi salatu wa salam,  and understanding the hadith and understanding the Qur'an itself,  knowing the seerah background.  So the 10th juz of the Qur'an starts from the last part of Surah Al-Anfal,  which is verse 41, and it goes into verse 92 of Surah At-Tawbah.  As we said, it comes off of the lengthiest discourse on the Battle of Badr  and how the Muslims are after the Battle of Badr,  hence the name of the surah, the spoils, Al-Anfal.  And as the Muslims are called to honor the treaties,  to not break them as long as the other party honors them as well,  to treat the prisoners of war well.  Finally, the Muslims are called to stand together and to join together  as one community against those who wish them harm from the outside.  And so there are a few themes that I'm going to hit on inshaAllah ta'ala  and then some stories that really come in this juz.  Number one, Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala mentions in verse 56,  Alladheena AAahadta minhum thumma yanqadoon AAahadahum fee kulli marratin wahum la yataqoon  Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala mentions a group of disbelievers who are despised  and particularly, he says, they're the ones that you make treaties with  but then they break their pledge fee kulli marratin.  They break the treaty every single time.  Wahum la yataqoon and they don't have any fear of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala.  So they're going to keep on breaking the treaty.  The interesting thing is that still, the believers are called to reciprocate good with good  and to always lead the way when it comes to issues of peace.  So in verse 60, these two verses 60 and 61 are so important to be read together.  In verse 60 of Surah Al-Anfal, Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala says,  Wa a'iddu lahum mastata'atu min quwwata  To show and prepare your strength.  Demonstrate strength and courage and a lack of fear and vulnerability  when you meet your enemies.  Be prepared. Be prepared from a military sense.  Be prepared from a spiritual sense.  Be prepared for a worst case scenario and don't show your enemies any type of weakness.  Instead, show your enemies that you're ready, that you're strong  and that you can defend yourself and that should a war take place,  that you will be able to stand up for yourself as a community.  And the very next verse, Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala says,  Wa in janahu lisalmi fajnah laha wa tawakkal ala Allah innahu wassamee'u al-'alim  And if they incline to peace, then you incline to it also.  And rely upon Allah. Indeed, it is He who is hearing and known.  SubhanAllah, the very famous verse that gets thrown in the face of the Muslims,  to slay them wherever you find them, is in the same juz.  It's in the beginning of Surah Tawbah, verse 5,  to kill them wherever you find them.  It's literally talking about not just enemy troops,  the enemy troops who broke their treaty and attack the Muslims  and actually non-Muslims as well, right?  Attacked people after breaking the treaty.  So it's not just people that are opponents of war.  It's people that were opponents of war, took a treaty with you,  broke the treaty and continue to kill.  And then Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala giv…
