Tafsir
These evil people gathered together to continue their evil deeds. They prepare to set a trap for Hadrat Salih. They come to a decision among themselves. They said, "Let us kill Salih this evening. Let us not leave a single member of his family, and after we have killed his entire household, no one will be able to accuse us of any crime, since there is no one left to see us. When Saleh's guardian suspects us and summons us, we will tell him that we are not aware of any such incident. Saying that we have not been there, they prepare and finalize their plans.
However, denying the most important point, they do not even want to remember that their Lord sees them and is aware of everything from mote to sphere. In this situation, they think that they are alone and that no one is aware of this secret plan and they wait for the agreed time.
If the universe were to be free and to move in the direction of human desires and wishes, the heavens and the earth and everything in between would be destroyed. This universe and all created beings have a certain course and a certain lifespan, and within this lifespan, there are events that will happen and destinies that they will live. No force, other than Allah, can change these written events, nor can people change their destiny within the covenant they have made. Everything is written down and preserved with Allah.
What is said in the video
Surah An-Naml, verse 49 Swearing by Allah, they said to one another: Let us raid him and his family at night. Just as they would kill the Prophet, they were going to kill him. From among them, a group, a group of people they choose. From every tribe, all together, they would kill the Prophet (peace be upon him) in his bed. In this situation, our Lord had informed the Prophet of the situation beforehand. Leaving his house at night, reciting the first seven verses of Surah Ya-Sin, he takes earth from the ground and throws it at their weapons. He passes right by them, and they do not see him. He meets Abu Bakr as-Siddiq, and toward Taif, the opposite side of Mecca, toward the Cave of Thawr they go.
Yes.
So these evil people gather together to continue their evil. They prepare to set a trap for Prophet Salih (peace be upon him). They reach a decision among themselves. They say: Tonight let us kill Salih. And let us not leave a single one of his family. After we kill the whole household, since no one who saw us will remain, no crime can be found on us. When Salih's guardian suspects us and summons us, we will tell him: We know nothing of such an event, and we were not even there. Saying this, they prepare and complete their plans.
Aren't there still such people? There are. They prepare plans. In the same way. One man is going to kill someone.
He goes and lies in Samatya Hospital.
At night he leaves Samatya Hospital without being seen.
He is going to go and kill the man in (?). He cannot find the man there. The man is not there.
He comes back to his bed again.
What is the plan? When he kills the man, who killed him? They will suspect: So-and-so killed him. Where is so-and-so? He is lying in the hospital. He has not gone outside. He will shift the blame off himself. Look at the game, the game. Look at the game. Yes.
But, denying the most important point, that their Lord sees them and is aware of everything, from the atom to the globe, they do not even want to remember. In this situation, thinking they are alone and that no one knows of this secret plan being prepared, they wait for the time they agreed on. If the universe were left to itself and ran according to people's wishes and desires, the heavens and the earth, and what is between these two, would collapse into one another and perish. In this universe, all created beings have a certain (?) and a certain lifespan. Within this lifespan they have destinies: events that will happen, which they will live through.
No power other than Allah can change these written events, nor can people change their destinies within the covenant they gave. Everything is written, laid down and preserved with Allah. Yes.
