Amongst Moses’s people, there is a group who found guidance with the Truth and who act with justice because of it.
Tafsir
Just as every Prophet had some communities in his time to help him, there will be some people and communities who will rule with the truth until the Day of Judgment. The Prophet (PBUH) was helped by his companions and relatives. Hazrat Jesus (pbuh) was helped by the apostles. Just as the Prophet Moses was helped by a community among them, there will be communities in our time and until the Day of Judgment who will find the right path in Islam and act justly because of it. From the ummah of the Prophet (PBUH), there will be such communities who will act justly in accordance with the right path until the Day of Judgment. In a hadith it is stated (the scholars of my ummah are like the Prophets of the tribe of Israel) and in another verse it is stated (the passing away of your scholars is like the passing away of light and the coming of darkness).
It is through these people that Allah (swt) will make the truth known to societies. This shows that Allah has programmed the worlds, and that within this program He has made the worlds unfold in their entirety.
What is said in the video
Surah Al-A'raf, verse 159 is where we have arrived.
Yes, among the people of Moses there is a community that finds the right path with the truth and through it acts justly, it says, from the people of Moses. A community that, with the truth, with the truth, the right path finds and through it acts justly does exist. Of course among them too, among the Jews too, there are people living Islam. They cannot reveal themselves. They appear to be one of them. But they have made one part, one part of their houses a mosque. They perform their (?) prayers, give their zakat, do good deeds. Yes, because if they made themselves known, the Jews would excommunicate him. In the past the Pope used to excommunicate people.
Do you know what excommunication means, what excommunication is?
When the Pope excommunicated a person, no one would give him food, nor clothes, nor garments, nor shoes, nor speak to him. He has been excommunicated. That person leaves the people and, living in the mountains, dies. Yes. So among these Jews too, that Jew living Islam, if he made himself known, they would excommunicate him.
Yes.
Just as in every prophet's own era there were some communities to help him, so until the Day of Judgment there will be, within these societies, some people and communities who will judge with the truth. To the Prophet (peace be upon him) the noble Companions and his relatives gave help. Jesus (peace be upon him) was helped by the disciples. Just as a community among them helped Moses (peace be upon him), so among these too, in our time and until the Day of Judgment, communities that find the true path on the religion of Islam and through it act justly will come.
Likewise, from the community of the Prophet (peace be upon him), until the Day of Judgment there will be societies that act with justice on the true path. In a hadith: the scholars of my community are like the prophets of the Children of Israel, it says. And in a verse He says: the passing of your scholars to the hereafter is like the going of light and the coming of darkness. So, if Allah, who is free from any deficient attribute, says in His verse: I do not hold anyone responsible for anything I have not made known, then wherever, whatever community it may be, among them there will surely be, upon the truth, people who have found the right path.
Through these people Allah Almighty will make the truth known to societies. This shows that Allah has programmed the worlds and, within this program, flawlessly watches over the worlds. This is the greatness of our Lord. Yes, the greatness of our Lord.
