Podcast Al Quran #157 Juz 10 QS 9 At Taubah 17-24

[Quran Chapter 9] 17. It is not for the polytheists to attend Allah's places of worship while professing their disbelief. These—their works are in vain, and in the Fire they will abide. 18. The only people to attend Allah's places of worship are those who believe in Allah and the Last Day, and pray regularly, and practice regular charity, and fear none but Allah. These are most likely to be guided. 19. Do you consider giving water to pilgrims and maintaining the Sacred Mosque the same as believing in Allah and the Last Day and striving in Allah's path? They are not equal in Allah's sight. Allah does not guide the unjust people. 20. Those who believe, and emigrate, and strive in Allah's path with their possessions and their persons, are of a higher rank with Allah. These are the winners. 21. Their Lord announces to them good news of mercy from Him, and acceptance, and gardens wherein they will have lasting bliss. 22. Abiding therein forever. With Allah is a great reward. 23. O you who believe! Do not ally yourselves with your parents and your siblings if they prefer disbelief to belief. Whoever of you allies himself with them—these are the wrongdoers. 24. Say, "If your parents, and your children, and your siblings, and your spouses, and your relatives, and the wealth you have acquired, and a business you worry about, and homes you love, are more dear to you than Allah, and His Messenger, and the struggle in His cause, then wait until Allah executes His judgment." Allah does not guide the sinful people.
