Translation

(All) Praise is due to Allah! Allah has sent down the Book to Allah’s servant and has not made it a matter of dispute or crookedness.

Tafsir

Allah (swt) sent guidance and light to the worlds by revealing the Holy Qur'an to Prophet Muhammad (pbuh). The verses of the Qur'an do not contain words that contradict each other, but they show the people the straight path and eliminate all the events that may cause disagreement, and they have revealed the truth without making people fall into suspicions and doubts. He has inevitably informed people that He is the Creator and the only One. If there were verses in the Qur'an that contradicted each other. Allah would be qualified and people would not be responsible for the sins they commit because of the contradictions in the verses.

Allah (swt) has sent the Holy Qur'an as a light and evidence before the people in a way that no human being can say. All the Verses have been revealed in support of each other. Allah (swt) reveals that the Holy Qur'an is a miracle Book by revealing His Essence to mankind in every Verse. If all mankind and jinn were to unite, they could not produce the like of a single Ayat of Allah (swt). Because Allah's Word is based on letters, each letter has a meaning. These letters come together to guide people. In addition, the letters in the verses have different meanings, perhaps revealing a secret of creation in that verse. In this respect, creatures have not been able to create the like of Allah's Verses, nor have they been able to create any distortion or crookedness in the Word of Allah.

What is said in the video

Surah Al-Kahf, verse 1: Praise be to Allah, who sent down the Book upon His servant and did not make in it any discord or any crookedness. Yes.

Allah Almighty, by sending down the Holy Quran to the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), sent a guidance and a light to the worlds. Just as there are no words in the Quran's verses that contradict each other, so, to show people the straight path, removing everything that would lead to dispute, it has delivered the truth without casting people into suppositions and doubts. He has made known to people unmistakably that His Being is the Creator and the One. If there were verses in the Quran contradicting each other, Allah would both be (?), and people, because of contradictions concerning the verses, would not be responsible for the sins they had committed.

Allah Almighty has sent the verses of the Holy Quran, in a way no human could utter, before people as a light and a proof. All the verses were sent down supporting one another. By making His Being known to people in each of His verses, Allah Almighty shows that the Holy Quran is a miracle, a book. Even if all humans and jinn united, they could not produce the like of a single verse of Allah Almighty. For since the word of Allah is built upon letters, every letter has a meaning. These letters come together and show people a way. Moreover, the letters in the verses carry separate meanings, and perhaps those verses form a secret of creation.

In this respect, just as created beings cannot produce the like of Allah's verses, so Allah has not put any distortion or crookedness into His word. Yes.
