▫️عَنْ أَبِي أَيُّوبَ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَال: قَالَ ﷺ: «مَنْ صَامَ رَمَضَانَ، ثُمَّ أَتْبَعَهُ سِتًّا مِنْ شَوَّالٍ، كَانَ كَصِيَامِ الدَّهْرِ». [رَوَاهُ مُسْلِمٌ]

وَتَبْدَأُ السِّتُّ مِنْ شَوَّالٍ مِنْ ثَانِي أَيَّامِ عِيدِ الْفِطْرِ (٢ شَوَّالٍ)، فَاحْرِصْ عَلَى صِيَامِهَا، وَاجْتَهِدْ فِي ذَلِكَ قَدْرَ مَا تَسْتَطِيعُ، وَاحْمَدِ اللَّهَ مَا دُمْتَ عَلَى قَيْدِ الْحَيَاةِ قَبْلَ أَنْ تَفُوتَكَ الْفُرْصَةُ. وَمَنْ لَمْ يَسْتَطِعْ صِيَامَهَا مُتَتَابِعَةً، فَلَهُ أَنْ يَصُومَهَا مُتَفَرِّقَةً، كَصِيَامِ يَوْمَيِ الِاثْنَيْنِ وَالْخَمِيسِ خِلَالَ شَهْرِ شَوَّالٍ، فَلَا يُشْتَرَطُ فِيهَا التَّتَابُعُ.

وَاللَّهُ الْمُوَفِّقُ.


▫️On the authority of Abu Ayyub al-Ansari (may Allah be pleased with him), the Prophet ﷺ said: "Whoever fasts during Ramadan and then follows it with six days of Shawwal, it will be as if he fasted an entire year."[Narrated by Muslim]

The six days of Shawwal begin on the second day of Eid al-Fitr (Shawwal 2nd). Be diligent in observing them and strive to fast them as much as you are able. Praise Allah for the blessing of life, for one may not be granted this opportunity again.

For those unable to fast all six days consecutively, it is permissible to fast them separately, like fasting on Mondays and Thursdays throughout the month of Shawwal. Consecutive fasting is not a requirement in this case.

And Allah is the One who grants success.

📚 الحمدُ للهِ الذي بِنِعمَتِهِ تَتِمُّ الصَّالِحاتُ، وبفَضْلِهِ تَتَوالى الخَيرَاتُ.

تَمَّ بفضلِ اللهِ تعالى خَتمُ تفسيرِ سورةِ الأنبياءِ،

وذلك في ثَمانيةَ عَشَرَ مجلسًا مباركًا عَمَّ نَفْعُها، وحَفَّها التَّوفيقُ بفضلِ اللهِ وحده.

نسألُ اللهَ أن يجعلَها خالصةً لوجهِه الكريمِ، نافعةً لنا في الدارينِ.

وكان ذلك في يومِ الجمعةِ ليلةَ السبتِ، الخامسَ عَشَرَ من شوالَ لعامِ 1447هـ الموافق الثالثَ من أبريلَ 2026م.

اللهمَّ تَقَبَّلْ منا، واغفِرْ لنا، وارفَعْ درجاتِنا في عليينَ.

📚 Praise be to Allah, by whose grace all righteous deeds are completed, and by His bounty, blessings continue to flow.

By the grace of Allah Almighty, the completion of the Tafsir of Surah Al-Anbiya was achieved.

This took place over eighteen blessed, beneficial sessions, and which were accompanied by success, by the grace of Allah alone.

We ask Allah to make this knowledge sincerely for His sake, and beneficial for us in both this life and the Hereafter.

It occurred on Friday, the night of Saturday, the fifteenth of Shawwal, 1447 AH, corresponding to April 3, 2026 CE.

O Allah, accept from us, forgive us, and raise our ranks in the highest Paradise.

▫️العشر من ذي الحجة من أعظم أيام السنة، وهي موسم مبارك يفتح الله فيه لعباده أبواب الخير والطاعة والقرب منه. قال الله تعالى: {وَالْفَجْرِ * وَلَيَالٍ عَشْرٍ} [الفجر: 1-2]. وذكر كثير من أهل العلم أن المراد بالليالي العشر: عشر ذي الحجة.

وقال النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم: "ما من أيام العمل الصالح فيها أحب إلى الله من هذه الأيام" يعني أيام العشر. قالوا: يا رسول الله، ولا الجهاد في سبيل الله؟ قال: "ولا الجهاد في سبيل الله، إلا رجل خرج بنفسه وماله فلم يرجع من ذلك بشيء" رواه البخاري.
ومن أعظم ما يستقبل به المسلم هذه الأيام: التوبة الصادقة إلى الله، وكثرة الاستغفار؛ فإن الذنوب تثقل القلب، وتضعف الهمة، وتحرم العبد لذة الطاعة، وقد تكون سببًا في حرمانه من أبواب الخير والرزق.
وقد ورد في الحديث: "إن الرجل ليحرم الرزق بالذنب يصيبه" رواه ابن ماجه وأحمد، وحسنه بعض أهل العلم. وأعظم رزقٍ رزقُ الطاعة، وأعظم حرمانٍ أن يُحرم العبد الطاعة ولذة العبادة.

وفي المقابل، فإن للتوبة والاستغفار آثارًا عظيمة؛ فبهما تنال المغفرة، وتدفع البلايا، وتجاب الدعوات، ويبارك الله في الأرزاق والأعمار. قال الله تعالى: {وَتُوبُوا إِلَى اللَّهِ جَمِيعًا أَيُّهَ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ لَعَلَّكُمْ تُفْلِحُونَ} [النور: 31].
وقال سبحانه على لسان نوح عليه السلام: {فَقُلْتُ اسْتَغْفِرُوا رَبَّكُمْ إِنَّهُ كَانَ غَفَّارًا * يُرْسِلِ السَّمَاءَ عَلَيْكُمْ مِدْرَارًا * وَيُمْدِدْكُمْ بِأَمْوَالٍ وَبَنِينَ وَيَجْعَلْ لَكُمْ جَنَّاتٍ وَيَجْعَلْ لَكُمْ أَنْهَارًا} [نوح: 10-12].

فاحرص في هذه الأيام على الإكثار من الذكر، والتكبير، وقراءة القرآن، والصيام، والصدقة، والدعاء؛ فإنها أيام عظيمة تضاعف فيها الحسنات، وترفع فيها الدرجات.

فاستقبل هذه الأيام بتوبة تمحو آثار الغفلة، وباستغفار يفتح لك أبواب الخير، وبقلب يسأل الله التوفيق والقبول. وأكثر من الدعاء؛ فإن الهداية والعمل الصالح والقبول كلها بيد الله.
قال الله تعالى: {وَقَالَ رَبُّكُمُ ادْعُونِي أَسْتَجِبْ لَكُمْ} [غافر: 60].
وكان من دعاء النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم:ً"اللهم أعني على ذكرك وشكرك وحسن عبادتك".

اللهم بلغنا عشر ذي الحجة، ووفقنا فيها للتوبة الصادقة، وافتح لنا فيها أبواب الخير والطاعة، واهدنا لصالح الأعمال، وأعنا على ذكرك وشكرك وحسن عبادتك.

▫️The first ten days of Dhul-Hijjah are among the greatest days of the year, and they are a blessed season in which Allah opens for His servants the doors of goodness, obedience, and closeness to Him. Allah the Exalted said: {By the dawn * and by the ten nights} [Al-Fajr: 1–2]. Many scholars have mentioned that what is meant by “the ten nights” is the first ten days of Dhul-Hijjah.

The Prophet ﷺ said: “There are no days in which righteous deeds are more beloved to Allah than these days,” meaning the ten days. They said: “O Messenger of Allah, not even jihad in the path of Allah?” He said: “Not even jihad in the path of Allah, except a man who went out with his life and his wealth and did not return with anything of that.” (Narrated by al-Bukhari)

Among the greatest ways a Muslim should receive these days is sincere repentance to Allah and abundant seeking of forgiveness. Sins weigh down the heart, weaken resolve, deprive a person of the sweetness of obedience, and may be a reason for being deprived of avenues of goodness and provision.

It has been reported in the hadith: “A man is deprived of provision because of the sin he commits” (narrated by Ibn Majah and Ahmad, and graded hasan by some scholars). The greatest provision is the provision of obedience, and the greatest deprivation is that a servant is deprived of obedience and the sweetness of worship.

On the other hand, repentance and seeking forgiveness have immense effects. Through them, forgiveness is attained, calamities are averted, supplications are answered, and Allah blesses one’s provision and lifespan. Allah the Exalted said: {And turn to Allah in repentance, all of you, O believers, that you might succeed} [An-Nur: 31].

And He, Glorified be He, said through the words of Noah (Nooh), peace be upon him: {So I said, ‘Seek forgiveness of your Lord; indeed, He is ever Forgiving. He will send [rain from] the sky upon you in [continuing] showers, and give you increase in wealth and children, and provide for you gardens and rivers’} [Nuh: 10–12].

So strive during these days to increase in remembrance of Allah (dhikr), takbir, recitation of the Qur’an, fasting, charity, and supplication, for they are great days in which good deeds are multiplied and ranks are raised.

So receive these days with repentance that erases the effects of heedlessness, with seeking forgiveness that opens for you the doors of goodness, and with a heart that asks Allah for success and acceptance. And increase in supplication, for guidance, righteous deeds, and acceptance are all in the Hand of Allah. Allah the Exalted said: {And your Lord says, “Call upon Me; I will respond to you.”} [Ghafir: 60].

And among the supplications of the Prophet ﷺ was: “O Allah, help me to remember You, to thank You, and to worship You in the best manner.”

O Allah, allow us to reach the first ten days of Dhul-Hijjah, grant us success in them for sincere repentance, make us among those who seek Your forgiveness, open for us in them the doors of goodness and obedience, guide us to righteous deeds, and help us to remember You, thank You, and worship You in the best manner.

📌بعد مغربِ اليومِ الأحدِ يبدأُ التَّكبيرُ المُطلَقُ لعشرِ ذي الحِجَّةِ.

➿ وهذه بُشْرى مِنَ النَّبيِّ ﷺ لكلِّ مَن كَبَّرَ وهَلَّلَ:

قال ﷺ: "ما أَهَلَّ مُهِلٌّ قَطُّ إِلَّا بُشِّرَ، ولا كَبَّرَ مُكَبِّرٌ قَطُّ إِلَّا بُشِّرَ" قِيلَ: يا رَسولَ اللهِ، بِالجَنَّةِ؟ قالَ: "نَعَمْ".

وقال ﷺ: "ما مِن أَيَّامٍ أَعْظَمُ عِندَ اللهِ، ولا أَحَبُّ إِلَيْهِ مِنَ العَمَلِ فِيهِنَّ مِن هذِهِ الأَيَّامِ العَشْرِ، فَأَكْثِرُوا فِيهِنَّ مِنَ التَّهْلِيلِ وَالتَّكْبِيرِ وَالتَّحْمِيدِ".

اللهُ أَكْبَرُ، اللهُ أَكْبَرُ، لا إِلٰهَ إِلَّا اللهُ واللهُ أَكْبَرُ، اللهُ أَكْبَرُ، وَلِلَّهِ الحَمْدُ
____________

📌After Maghrib this Sunday, the general unrestricted Takbir for the first ten days of Dhul-Hijjah begins.

➿ This is glad tidings from the Prophet ﷺ for everyone who says “Allahu Akbar” and “La ilaha illallah”:

The Prophet ﷺ said: “No one ever raises the Talbiyah except that he is given glad tidings, and no one ever says takbir except that he is given glad tidings.” It was said: “O Messenger of Allah, is it Paradise?” He said: “Yes.”

And he ﷺ said: “There are no days greater in the sight of Allah, nor more beloved to Him for good deeds than these ten days, so increase in them in saying La ilaha illallah, Allahu Akbar, and Alhamdulillah.”

Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar, La ilaha illallah Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar, wa lillahil hamd

▫️مِنْ صِيَغِ التَّكْبِيرِ:

▫️أَوَّلًا: صِيغَةُ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ
وَرَدَ فِي مُصَنَّفِ ابْنِ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ وَغَيْرِهِ:
اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ، اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ، لَا إِلٰهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ، وَاللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ، اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ، وَلِلَّهِ الحَمْدُ
وَهٰذِهِ هِيَ أَشْهَرُ صِيغَةٍ عَنِ الصَّحَابَةِ.

▫️ثَانِيًا: مَا رُوِيَ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا
فِي مُصَنَّفِ ابْنِ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ:
اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ، اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ، اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ، وَلِلَّهِ الحَمْدُ
وَفِي رِوَايَةٍ:
اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ كَبِيرًا، اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ كَبِيرًا، اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ وَأَجَلُّ، اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ وَلِلَّهِ الحَمْدُ

تَنْبِيهٌ: بَعْضُ العِبَارَاتِ تُرْوَى بِأَلْفَاظٍ مُتَعَدِّدَةٍ، وَلٰكِنَّ أَصْلَهَا الذِّكْرُ وَالتَّكْبِيرُ المُطْلَقُ دُونَ التِزَامِ صِيغَةٍ وَاحِدَةٍ.

▫️ثَالِثًا: مَا رُوِيَ عَنْ سَلْمَانَ الفَارِسِيِّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ
فِي بَعْضِ الآثَارِ:
اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ، اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ، اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ كَبِيرًا
وَهٰذَا مَرْوِيٌّ كَصِيغَةِ ذِكْرٍ، وَلَيْسَ مُقَيَّدًا بِالتَّكْبِيرِ فَقَطْ عِنْدَ جَمِيعِ الفُقَهَاءِ.

▫️رَابِعًا: أَثَرُ عُمَرَ بْنِ الخَطَّابِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ
فِي صَحِيحِ البُخَارِيِّ تَعْلِيقًا وَكُتُبِ الآثَارِ:
كَانَ عُمَرُ يُكَبِّرُ فِي مِنًى فِي قُبَّتِهِ، فَيَسْمَعُهُ النَّاسُ فَيُكَبِّرُونَ، وَيُكَبِّرُ أَهْلُ السُّوقِ حَتَّى تَرْتَجَّ مِنًى تَكْبِيرًا.
أَمَّا اللَّفْظُ المَأْثُورُ عَنْهُ:
كَانَ يَقُولُ: اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ، اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ، اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ

🟢 هذه الصيغ كلها داخلة في التكبير المشروع في أيام العشر.
وأشهر ما ورد عنهم وأقواه: صيغة عبد الله بن مسعود رضي الله عنه:
الله أكبر، الله أكبر، لا إله إلا الله، والله أكبر، الله أكبر، ولله الحمد

Forms of Takbir

▫️First: The wording of Ibn Mas‘ud (may Allah be pleased with him)
It is reported in Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah and others:
Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar, La ilaha illallah, wa Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar, wa lillahil-hamd
This is the most well-known wording reported from the Companions.

▫️Second: What is reported from Ibn ‘Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both)
In Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah:
Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar, wa lillahil-hamd
And in another narration:
Allahu Akbar kabiran, Allahu Akbar kabiran, Allahu Akbar wa ajall, Allahu Akbar wa lillahil-hamd

Note: Some of these wordings are reported in different forms. However, their origin is general remembrance and unrestricted takbir, without committing to a single fixed formula.

▫️Third: What is reported from Salman al-Farisi (may Allah be pleased with him)
In some narrations:
Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar kabiran
This is reported as a form of remembrance, and it is not restricted specifically to takbir according to all scholars.

▫️Fourth: The practice of ‘Umar ibn al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him)
In Sahih al-Bukhari (as a تعليق / report) and books of narrations:
‘Umar used to make takbir in Mina from his tent, and the people would hear him and make takbir, and the people in the marketplace would also make takbir until Mina would shake with takbir.
As for the wording reported from him: He used to say: Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar

🟢 All of these wordings fall under the legislated takbir during the first ten days of Dhul-Hijjah.
The most well-known and strongest narration reported from them is the wording of ‘Abdullah ibn Mas‘ud (may Allah be pleased with him):
Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar, La ilaha illallah, wa Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar, wa lillahil-hamd

🟢الحمدُ للهِ ربِّ العالمين، والصلاةُ والسلامُ على نبيِّنا محمدٍ ﷺ.
أمَّا بعد:

فَإِنَّ مِنْ أَعْظَمِ مَا يُعَمِّرُ بِهِ الْعَبْدُ وَقْتَهُ ذِكْرُ اللَّهِ تَعَالَى، فَإِنَّ التَّسْبِيحَ وَالتَّحْمِيدَ وَالتَّهْلِيلَ وَالتَّكْبِيرَ كَلِمَاتٌ مُبَارَكَاتٌ، يَبْقَى أَجْرُهَا لِلْعَبْدِ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى.

وقد قال النبيُّ ﷺ: «إنَّ ممَّا تذكرونَ مِن جلالِ اللهِ: التسبيحَ والتهليلَ والتحميدَ، ينعطفْنَ حولَ العرشِ، لهنَّ دويٌّ كدويِّ النحلِ، تُذكِّرُ بصاحبِها، أما يُحبُّ أحدُكم أن يكونَ له ـ أو لا يزالَ له ـ مَن يُذكَرُ به؟»

فأكثروا ـ رحمكمُ اللهُ ـ مِن ذِكرِه سبحانه في هذه الأيامِ الفاضلةِ، فإنها مواسمُ سريعةُ الانقضاءِ، والسعيدُ مَن وُفِّقَ فيها لطاعةٍ مقبولةٍ.

نسألُ اللهَ لنا ولكمُ الهدى والتوفيقَ والثباتَ على الحقِّ حتى نلقاه.

🟢Among the greatest ways a believer may spend his days is by remembering Allah. Indeed, glorifying Allah, praising Him, declaring that none has the right to be worshipped except Him, and proclaiming His greatness are blessed words whose reward and remembrance remain with Allah.

The Prophet ﷺ said: “Among the words by which you remember the Majesty of Allah are: ‘Glory be to Allah,’ ‘All praise is due to Allah,’ ‘None has the right to be worshipped except Allah,’ and ‘Allah is the Greatest.’ They circle around the Throne with a sound like the buzzing of bees, reminding Allah of the one who said them...”

So increase, may Allah have mercy upon you, in the remembrance of Allah during these blessed days, for they pass quickly, and the successful one is the one whom Allah grants acceptance in obedience.

We ask Allah to grant us and you guidance, steadfastness, and firmness upon the truth until we meet Him.
