Tafsir Class July 7 – Aleya 45, Sura Al Ankabut

Tafsir (commentary) class and teachings of the Quran, Ustad Abdelgani Melara. Tuesday, July 7, 2020. Aleya 45, Sura Al Ankabut

Recite what has been inspired to you from the Book and establish salat, it is true that salat prevents indecency and what is reprehensible.
But the remembrance of Allah is greater, and Allah knows what ye do.
*According to many commentators this phrase means: “Allah’s remembrance of you is greater than your remembrance of Him”. And in this sense there is a corroborating hadith. It is also said to mean: “Your remembrance of Allah in salat is better than everything”, and in this sense salat would be called “remembrance of Allah”. Another meaning is, that remembrance of Allah with continuity is better to prevent the reprehensible than salat; and another possible meaning would be that remembrance of Allah is better than all other acts of worship including salat]. 29/45

The classes are held on Tuesdays at 8.30 pm at the Mosque and are broadcast live on the www.YouTube.com/MezquitaSevilla channel.
