Ali 'Imran 184: If they accuse you of lying, certainly, many Prophets before you who brought obvious miracles, Scriptures and enlightening Books (to their nations), were also accused of lying.

Surah Al Imran, verse 184. says: My Messenger, if they have accused you of lying, do not find it strange. Do not find it strange.

Indeed, before you many prophets who brought clear miracles, scriptures and an illuminating book were also accused of lying, it says. Yes, Allah Almighty, so that the Prophet would not grieve, supports him so that he does not grieve. The Prophet does grieve too. So that he does not grieve, He answers him with support. He even says: do not mind their denying you; in their time they betrayed Me too. Therefore, if a person in conscience, in conscience, what he has received from Allah in line with the verses, can explain it straight, without any word contradicting another word, if he can explain it without one word contradicting another, and if they try to deny this, and him, falling short into superstitious knowledge by their own minds, because it goes against their superstitions, in order to belittle those who tell the truth or to accuse them of lying, against those who put forward much superstitious knowledge, Allah Almighty supports us too, and with beautiful verses.

Let them tell their superstitions as much as they like. Because there is no basis to them at all. (?) one part of it contradicts it, belies it. There is no origin. Or the meaning is very narrow; he understands a narrow thing this way and cannot go beyond it. But those whom Allah Almighty raises are like a radar. They do the calculation, and they also check the calculation. What does this mean? When they explain Allah's verse, they explain it in the light of those verses, with many verses as its support. They explain them as supporting the verses. Yes.

My Messenger, if they have accused you of lying, do not find it strange. Indeed, before you many prophets who brought clear miracles, scriptures and an illuminating book were also accused of lying, it says. Allah Almighty is trying to comfort the Prophet. Allah Almighty, comforting the Prophet, our master Muhammad, says: My beloved, do not mind what they say. Although We sent them clear pages, a book and prophets, they denied. They will not give up this state of theirs. Why will they not give it up? Because back in (?), at Kalu Bela, when they made their covenant with Allah Almighty, our Lord knows what kind of covenant they gave to Allah.

That is why He comforts the Prophet too. Even though the Prophet (peace be upon him) knows this, in this world a human being surely wants support. A human being. The support of Moses was the staff in his hand; the support of the Prophet (peace be upon him) at his side, that is, (?), was Abu Bakr as-Siddiq.

Yes. Solitude (?) Allah.

Every prophet worked to fulfil the duty given to him. What does Allah Almighty say? They would approach their peoples from in front, from behind, from the right and from the left, He says. They would approach them. Yes.

No prophet ever used force to bring anyone into Allah's religion. Why? Even though they had the authority, they did not use force. Because no human being can change another human being's character. Nor can he change his destiny. Since character does not change, destiny does not change either. The prophets know these things very well. For this reason Allah Almighty tells people: practise amr bil-ma'ruf, He says. That is, tell the truth.

He does not tell us: bring people to Islam by force. Just tell the truth. If there is a seed in him, you are like water falling from the sky. It sprouts and grows, it comes to life. If that seed is not in him, if it is a dry seed, however much water you rain from the sky, it will rot and is doomed to go on remaining dead. That seed we speak of: if in that person's heart there is the light of Islam, if there is Islam in his covenant,

when you tell him Islam's true word, the truths, the seed in his heart, that is, that faith, will sprout and grow, it will come to life. So Allah Almighty says: you only practise amr bil-ma'ruf. That is, tell the truth. Otherwise people can in no way change their destinies. Yes.

No prophet ever used force to bring anyone into Allah's religion. The reason is that the prophets know very well that Allah made all people witnesses against their own selves and wrote the desires and deeds of each soul for those people as their destiny. It is not possible to change this destiny. Therefore every prophet, in an unseen world, is charged with conveying Allah's commands to people.

The messages of the prophets who convey Allah's commands and prohibitions to people are like the mercy that Allah Almighty rains down upon people.

Yes.

What are we saying? We will put our finger on that. The messages of the prophets who convey Allah's commands and prohibitions to people are like the mercy that Allah Almighty rains down upon people. Mercy. Allah Almighty constantly rains down mercy. Mercy. People open umbrellas and run from this mercy. That is, they leave the religion of Islam. So the prophets go under those umbrellas

and make those people hear it too.

But then those people, over their hearts, their ears and their eyes, draw a veil against them, and do not hear the prophets speaking. Hatemallâhu alâ kulûbihim ve alâ sem'ihim ve alâ ebsârihim gışâvetün ve lehüm azâbün azîm. Over their eyes is a veil, and in their ears a heaviness, He says. Their hearts are sealed too. For them there is a painful punishment, says Allah Almighty.

Yes.

Allah made all people witnesses against their own selves and wrote the desires and deeds of each soul for those people as their destiny. It is not possible to change this destiny. Therefore every prophet, in an unseen world, is charged with conveying Allah's commands to people. The messages of the prophets who convey Allah's commands and prohibitions to people are like the mercy that Allah Almighty rains down upon people. If in the covenant a person gave there is a good covenant with Allah, his heart sprouts and comes to life. But if there is rebellion against Allah and (?), this is like a seed sown in barren land.

The seed there dries up and is gone; that is how a person wrongs himself. That is how a person wrongs himself. Yes.
