In this lesson of Sūrah Yūnus (verses 53–61), Shaykh Dr. Aḥsan Ḥanīf explains how these verses emphasise the undeniable reality of the Resurrection and the justice of Allāh عَزَّ وَجَلَّ. When the punishment arrives, even the most powerful wrongdoers will wish to ransom themselves with everything they possess, but it will be too late. The verses remind us that everything belongs to Allāh, His promise is true, and He is fully aware of every deed. The Qur’ān is described as a cure, a guidance, and a mercy for the believers, something far greater than worldly wealth. The passage also warns against distorting divine laws without authority, reminding us that Allāh’s bounty is vast, yet most people remain ungrateful. Ultimately, nothing escapes His knowledge, not even the smallest act, underscoring that all is written in a perfect record.

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.

In this lesson of Sūrah Yūnus (verses 21-24), Shaykh Dr. Aḥsan Ḥanīf explains how mankind often turns to Allāh عَزَّ وَجَلَّ in times of desperation but quickly returns to heedlessness once relief is granted. The verses describe how people, when faced with calamities such as storms at sea, sincerely call upon Allāh عَزَّ وَجَلَّ for deliverance yet after being saved, they resume their wrongdoing. Allāh عَزَّ وَجَلَّ warns that such injustice only harms those who commit it and that the worldly life, no matter how appealing, is temporary. Like crops flourishing after rainfall only to be destroyed unexpectedly, human life is fleeting and its true reality will be revealed on the Day of Judgment. These verses urge reflection on gratitude, sincerity and the transient nature of worldly success.

In this lesson of Sūrah Yūnus (verses 15-20), Shaykh Dr. Aḥsan Ḥanīf explores how the disbelievers demanded that the Prophet ﷺ alter the Qur’ān to suit their desires. Allāh عَزَّ وَجَلَّ instructs the Prophet ﷺ to affirm that he only follows divine revelation and has no authority to change it. The verses highlight the irrationality of those who fabricate lies about Allāh عَزَّ وَجَلَّ or reject His signs, making it clear that the wrongdoers will never succeed. The passage also refutes the false belief in powerless intercessors besides Allāh عَزَّ وَجَلَّ and reminds that all of humanity was once united in faith before division arose. Lastly, the disbelievers’ demand for miraculous signs is addressed, reinforcing that the unseen is under Allāh’s عَزَّ وَجَلَّ control, and the Prophet ﷺ is commanded to remain patient.

In this lesson of Sūrah Yūnus (verses 7-14), Shaykh Dr. Aḥsan Ḥanīf explains the contrast between those who are heedless of the Hereafter and those who believe in Allāh عَزَّ وَجَلَّ and do righteous deeds. The verses describe the fate of those who are content with worldly life and neglect Allāh’s signs, earning for themselves the punishment of Hell. In contrast, the believers will be guided by Allāh عَزَّ وَجَلَّ to Paradise, where they will glorify and praise Him in eternal peace. The passage also highlights human nature, where people call upon Allāh عَزَّ وَجَلَّ in distress but forget Him when their hardship is lifted. Finally, the lesson reminds us of past nations destroyed for their wrongdoing and warns that we have been given the earth as a test to see how we will act.

In this lesson of Sūrah Yūnus (verses 1 to 6), Shaykh Dr. Aḥsan Ḥanīf explains the themes of revelation, Allāh’s عَزَّ وَجَلَّ absolute power, and the clear signs in His creation. The verses address the disbelief of those who question why Allāh عَزَّ وَجَلَّ chose a human messenger to warn people and bring good news to the believers. They affirm that Allāh عَزَّ وَجَلَّ alone created the heavens and the earth, controls all affairs, and has the exclusive right to be worshipped. The passage also highlights the certainty of resurrection and the Day of Judgment, where Allāh عَزَّ وَجَلَّ will reward those who believed and did righteous deeds, while those who denied the truth will face severe punishment. Finally, the sun, moon, and the alternation of day and night are presented as signs of Allāh’s عَزَّ وَجَلَّ wisdom and precision, guiding those who reflect and fear Him.
