Podcast Al Quran #109 Juz 7 QS 6 Al Anam 71-82

[Quran Chapter 6] 71. Say, "Shall we invoke besides Allah something that can neither benefit us nor harm us, and turn back on our heels after Allah has guided us; like someone seduced by the devils and confused on earth, who has friends calling him to guidance: 'Come to us'?" Say, "The guidance of Allah is the guidance, and we are commanded to surrender to the Lord of the Universe." 72. "And to perform the prayers, and to revere Him; it is to Him that you will be gathered." 73. It is He who created the heavens and the earth in truth. On the Day when He says: "Be," it will be. His saying is the truth, and His is the sovereignty on the Day when the trumpet is blown. The Knower of secrets and declarations. He is the Wise, the Expert. 74. Abraham said to his father Azar, "Do you take idols for gods? I see that you and your people are in evident error." 75. Thus We showed Abraham the empire of the heavens and the earth, that he might be one of those with certainty. 76. When the night fell over him, he saw a planet. He said, "This is my lord." But when it set, he said, "I do not love those that set." 77. Then, when he saw the moon rising, he said, "This is my lord." But when it set, he said, "If my Lord does not guide me, I will be one of the erring people." 78. Then, when he saw the sun rising, he said, "This is my lord, this is bigger." But when it set, he said, "O my people, I am innocent of your idolatry. 79. I have directed my attention towards Him Who created the heavens and the earth—a monotheist—and I am not of the idolaters." 80. And his people argued with him. He said, "Do you argue with me about Allah, when He has guided me? I do not fear what you associate with Him, unless my Lord wills it. My Lord comprehends all things in knowledge. Will you not reconsider? 81. And why should I fear those you associate with Him, and you do not fear associating others with Allah for which He sent down to you no authority? Which side is more entitled to security, if you are aware?" 82. Those who believe, and do not obscure their faith with wrongdoing—those will have security, and they are guided.
