In this lesson of Sūrah Yūnus (verses 42–52), Shaykh Dr. Aḥsan Ḥanīf explains how the Qur’ān highlights the stubbornness of those who refuse to believe despite hearing and seeing the truth. These verses affirm that Allāh عَزَّ وَجَلَّ never wrongs His creation; rather, people wrong themselves through denial and heedlessness. The passage reminds us of the fleeting nature of this world and the certainty of the Hereafter, where all will be judged justly. The Prophet ﷺ is told to clarify that he has no control over divine matters, and everything happens according to Allāh’s perfect timing. The verses also warn against demanding the punishment hastily, because once it comes, belief at that point will not benefit the disbelievers.

In this lesson of Sūrah Yūnus (verses 34–41), Shaykh Dr. Aḥsan Ḥanīf explores powerful arguments presented in the Qur’ān against shirk (associating partners with Allāh), highlighting how none besides Allāh can begin creation or provide true guidance. The verses affirm the divine origin of the Qur’ān and challenge doubters to produce anything like it. The lesson also addresses the common response of denial due to ignorance and arrogance, emphasising that belief is ultimately in Allāh’s hands. The Prophet ﷺ is reminded to remain firm and disassociate from those who persist in rejection.

In this lesson of Sūrah Yūnus (verses 25–33), Shaykh Dr Aḥsan Ḥanīf highlights Allāh’s عَزَّ وَجَلَّ merciful invitation to Dār al-Salām — the Eternal Home of Peace (Jannah). These āyāt clearly distinguish between the fate of the righteous and the fate of those who reject the truth.

Those who believe and do righteous deeds will be honoured with Jannah — a place of eternal light, safety, and dignity. As for those who commit evil, they will be enveloped in humiliation and darkness, with no protector to save them from the justice of Allāh عَزَّ وَجَلَّ.

These verses also portray the terror of the Day of Judgement — when false gods will disown their worshippers and every soul will stand alone, accountable before Allāh, the One and Absolute Truth. The message ends with a powerful reminder that all authority and control rests solely with Allāh عَزَّ وَجَلَّ — calling people to abandon falsehood and submit to His divine guidance.
