What is said in the video
Söner from Istanbul asks a question. Peace be upon you, Hodja. In a talk on your website it was said that people will be in Paradise and Hell with the soul, that there will be no bodies, it was said.
Since Allah will resurrect people in the Hereafter, isn't it contradictory, in your view, that in Paradise and Hell they are only in the form of a soul? I would be glad if you would shed light on this with correct knowledge, he says.
Let us shed light on it with correct knowledge. Not correct knowledge. Let us shed light on it with verses.
On the Day of Resurrection our bodies will be raised, according to what? According to the verse: We give you life twice and cause you to die twice, our first coming to life is in the body, here; our first death is in the body, also in this world; our second coming to life is in the body, in the Hereafter. Now we come to our second death. In the body.
What was it: when you come into My presence with a driver? According to the verse: We give you life twice and cause you to die twice. We have told the first one, now we come to the second. When you come into My presence with a driver, what is the driver? The body. What is the body? When it comes into the presence, We silence your mouths, bind your feet, and make your hands speak, He says. These are verses. I am telling you in the language of speech. In that case the soul standing opposite addresses its body: why do you bear witness against me, it says. I am not saying this from my own mind like that.
These are all verses. I take the verses one by one. It says: Allah, who makes me speak in the body, makes me speak. After the testimony of the body is over, the body says exactly this to the soul: you are being returned to the One who first created you, and there the body dies a second time; the body created from earth becomes earth. Soul, nafs and life are one, the flesh is separate. Why does the soul not enter the body and appear with the body in the presence of Allah Almighty? See, when the souls are paired, it says, that is, the pairing of body and soul when they come face to face; some interpret it as when man and woman come face to face, the poor things. Yes, in this case, in this case, because that body is strong, the body, I mean, because the soul is strong, since it would make the body speak however it wished,
yes, since it would make the body speak however it wished, Allah Almighty separates the soul from the body. Weren't the souls already created earlier in the realm of Lahut? And after that, didn't He raise those souls to the Barzakh? Then didn't He create the body of our forefather Adam from clay? Then, after giving him his soul, didn't He say to the angel and Satan: prostrate? So soul, nafs and life are one. The bodies are separate. In that case it dies there a second time. Because soul, nafs and life are one, in Paradise and Hell it is rewarded or punished as soul and nafs and life.
