| 0:08.4 | So today with when Allah says when nazi ati harka when na shi tati na shtaa wa sabihati sabha fa sab iqati sabqa fel mudabbirati amra these five ayat are one passage |
| 0:20.2 | And these this let me briefly translate for you and I will purposely make my translation confusing or |
| 0:27.4 | Or ambiguous so you appreciate what the complication is |
| 0:31.5 | Allah says I swear by those that pull as they drown they pull as they drown nazi ati harka when na shi tati na shtaa and I swear by those that release |
| 0:43.8 | completely |
| 0:44.8 | Completely let loose |
| 0:46.8 | Wasabi hati sabha and I swear by those that swim |

| 1:51.8 | That's what it's referring to and so if you interpret it that way the rest of the five ayat are going to be based on this conclusion |
| 2:00.3 | Right, so then they're gonna say well they dive in and they yank the soul out of the sinner because when the sinner's soul is pulled out |
| 2:07.1 | It's like it's like pulling wool or like a piece of wool out of thorns like it tears as it pulls out |
| 2:14.4 | So that's that excruciating experience of the body the soul being pulled out of the body as opposed to when nashtati nashtha nashtha |
| 2:21.7 | nashtha means movement with smoothness and ease bisuhula and so it means that the believer soul is taken out smoothly like water pouring out of a jug |
