Transliteration:( Inneee aamantu bi Rabbikum fasma'oon )
"Surely, in that case, I believe in your Lord. So, listen to me [37]."
At this crucial moment, Habeeb ibn Najjaar openly professed his faith, saying: "I believe in your Lord." This shows both his certainty in truth and his respect for the Messengers, by identifying Allah as "your Lord"—meaning the Lord of the Prophets, which affirms that true divinity belongs only to the One worshipped by His chosen servants.
By saying "So, listen to me," he was asking the Messengers to bear witness to his belief. He wanted his final words to be recorded as a testimony of sincere faith before he faced death at the hands of the disbelievers.
This verse teaches that the pious servants of Allah are proofs of His truth, and that true belief is linked to acknowledging the Lord of the Messengers. Immediately after this courageous declaration, Habeeb was martyred, sealing his faith with sacrifice.
The tafsir of Surah Yaseen verse 25 by Ibn Kathir is unavailable here.
Please refer to Surah Yaseen ayat 20 which provides the complete commentary from verse 20 through 25.
(36:25) I believe in your Lord;[21] so listen to me.”
21. This sentence again contains a subtle point of the wisdom of preaching. Saying this the man made the people realize: The Lord in Whom I have believed is not merely my Lord but your Lord, too. I have committed no error by believing in Him, but you, in fact, are certainly committing an error by not believing in Him.
