Tafsir
Allah (swt) is the provider of the universe and the guarantor of the sustenance of every creation. In this respect, He creates causes for people, and through these causes people obtain their sustenance.
In order to ensure the sustenance of the poor people working in the sea, Allah Ta'ala made the ship imperfect and saved it from the king who would seize every sound ship in the future, and ensured that the poor people would not have their ships seized in order to ensure their sustenance.
As a result of your impatient question, Allah has protected His creatures and treated them with mercy.
What is said in the video
We have come to verse 79 of Surah Al-Kahf. Yes.
As for the ship, it belonged to poor people working at sea. As for making it defective: behind them, seizing every sound ship by force, there was a king. Allah Almighty gives sustenance to the universe and is the guarantor of the sustenance of all He creates. Therefore He creates means for people, and through these means people secure their sustenance. So, to secure the sustenance of these poor people working at sea too, Allah Almighty, by having the ship made defective, saved it from the king ahead who seized every sound ship, and, to secure these poor people's sustenance, ensured that their ship would be seized — would not be seized.
So in the outcome of the matter you could not bear patiently and asked about, Allah again protected His creatures and treated them with mercy.
