Translation

Say; “Indeed, it was revealed to me that your God is the One and Only God, Allah. Are you still not going to become Muslims?”

Tafsir

Say to those who disbelieve in Allah and His Messengers, or to the polytheists and idolaters that it has been revealed to you that your God is only one God. Whatever people worship, whatever they worship is the creation of Allah, Whom there is no other god but Him. So if your god is Allah, the only God, there is no god but Allah, will you still not believe and become Muslims?

When Allah (swt) addresses the human mind and says, "Don't you ever think or don't you ever contemplate?" If human beings use their minds a little, when they worship the idols they have made with their own hands, they will feel ashamed of themselves, or when they give more value to the living or non-living beings created by Allah (swt) than Allah (swt) commands, and do not fulfill Allah's commands by serving them, when they think a little! They will realize that they are in a state of delusion, that they have been brainwashed, that they worship Allah's creations, leaving Allah behind with their subconscious desires. If they do not turn back from this, and if they go to the Hereafter in this state, they will be a pity for themselves.

What is said in the video

Surah Al-Anbiya, verse 108: Say: It is only revealed to me that your god is only one single Allah. Will you still not become Muslims? Yes, there is no god other than Allah. There is no Lord, no creator other than Allah. If there were, one would take away what it created, and the other would take away what it created, and everything would drown in corruption. If there were yet another god, they would, in states contradicting each other, oppress people. One would set out to oppress the other, and the other would set out to oppress the other. Like today's states destroying one another. Like how they drive people out of their homelands with their blood, their lives, their property, and torment them.

To those who deny Allah's prophets and become disbelievers, or to the polytheists, those idolaters, say: It is revealed that your god is only one single Allah; will you still not become Muslims? Whatever people may worship, all that they worship, from the atom to the globe, whatever exists, are the creations of Allah, besides whom there is no other god. So if your god is one single Allah, besides whom there is no god, then in the face of this will you still not come to faith and become Muslims?

How beautifully Allah Almighty says: Allah, besides Allah there is no god at all; He whom He calls "Hu", Allah, who subsists by His own Being. Yes, Allah Almighty, addressing the human mind with His verse in which He says, "Do you never think?" or "Do you never reflect?" If a person uses his mind a little, he is ashamed of himself for worshipping idols made with his own hands, and those who give the living or lifeless beings that Allah created more value than Allah's command, serving them and not fulfilling Allah's commands, will, when they think a little, see that they are caught in an obsession, that their brains have been washed, that through the subconscious desires of the nafs they have left Allah and worship what Allah created.

If these do not turn back from this state and go to the hereafter in this state, they bring ruin upon themselves.
