Additional Notes:

The pharaoh and similar tyrants would spend millenniums in the bottom of the hell fire. Worst punishment ever. Every time their skin and flesh burn, they will be given new skin and flesh to burn, and so forth. Endless cycles of torture. Each cycle is worse than the cycle before. A mountain of burning rock will appear to them in the bottom of the hell. They will be made to believe that if they would climb this mountain, their pain is going to be less. So, they spend millenniums climbing the mountain. When they reach to the top, the mountain collapses and another one is raised. They will try the next one and so forth. Cycles of climbing a fire fueled by stone. It will be much worse than the fire that is fueled by wood. The size of their body will be so large that their teeth in hell is larger than a mountain for the purpose of maximizing the surface area of their body to feel the pain. In each cycle, his body will be larger than the body before. The hell fire feeds on them and it gets nothing but worse. He would have no chance of any kind of parole. He and tyrants like him along with the Shytan. It is a fair punishment for what they did. I believe that In Sha’a Allah tyrants like Hitler, Stalin, Mao and north Korean tyrants would join the Pharaoh in the seventh layer of hell, which has the worst torture.

Notes:

http://wischool.net/2021_WIS/Quran/Quran_files/image156.jpg

http://wischool.net/2021_WIS/Quran/Quran_files/image158.jpg

· Allah is Al-Qodoos, which means the infinite purity. The more pure angels get, the closer they get to Allah .

· Angles seek closeness to Allah by engaging into the so called “Taqdees”. Taqdees is the process of seeking closeness to Allah by purifying yourself. This is applicable only to the angels because they are at the level of purity. For humans, we seek closeness to Allah by doing Tazkiah, which is cleaning the heart from dirty temptations. Angles don’t have dirty temptations, so they do Taqdees but we humans are not at this level yet. We do Tazkhiah. The word Sanctify in English means to seek Holiness by purifications.

Meaning of Al-Azeez. Pyramids of Izah (Power)

http://wischool.net/2021_WIS/Quran/Quran_files/image224.jpg

Comparing the Azeez of United States with the Azeez of Mexico, the Azeez of United States wins.

http://wischool.net/2021_WIS/Quran/Quran_files/image226.jpg

Allah is the highest Azeez

http://wischool.net/2021_WIS/Quran/Quran_files/image228.jpg

Allah is the highest super-duper power

http://wischool.net/2021_WIS/Quran/Quran_files/image230.jpg

To prove that you believe in the name of Allah Al-Azeez, you seek Izah from Allah by pleasing him. Don't seek Izah from other super powers than Allah by pleasing other super powers and displeasing Allah . If you can please all, then good, but if you have to please one and make all others angry then please Allah and make all others angry.

http://wischool.net/2021_WIS/Quran/Quran_files/image232.jpg

Allah is the heavenly Azeez. He is to be pleased and all other earthly Azeezs come next.

http://wischool.net/2021_WIS/Quran/Quran_files/image234.jpg

Q. What would you do if an earthly super power is forcing you to disobey the highest super duper Azeez (Allah ), such as the case in the inquisition?

A. First try to escape to a place where you are free to obey Al-Azeez. If you can't (such as the case of African American slaves), then keep your heart with Al-Azeez. In other words, set your intentions to obey Al-Azeez as much as you can and maintain a desire to obey Al-Azeez if you can get a chance. You have full control over your heart and no one can change your heart except Allah and you.
