Tafsir Surat Al Buruj 1/2 (The People of the Ditch)

In this class, we dive into the powerful opening of Surat Al-Buruj (verses 1–10), where Allah swears by the sky filled with mighty constellations and reminds us of the story of the People of the Ditch—believers who were burned alive for holding firmly to their faith.

Alongside the tafsir, I highlight key ʿAqīdah (creed) benefits from the story of Ashab al-Ukhdood, such as belief in Allah’s Rubūbiyyah and Qadar, the reality of trials for the people of Tawḥīd, the firmness of the heart in times of persecution, and the divine justice awaiting the oppressors.

🔹 Topics Covered:

The meaning of Al-Buruj (constellations)
The significance of Allah’s oaths
Who were the People of the Ditch?
Aqeedah benefits: firmness upon Tawḥīd, divine decree, and the promise of Paradise
