An-Naml 66: No, their knowledge about the Hereafter is incomplete. And they are in doubt about this. And they are blind with regard to the hereafter.

No, their knowledge of the hereafter has fallen short. Moreover, they are in doubt about it. Beyond that, they are blind regarding the hereafter.

This verse

contains deep meanings, inner meanings.

I will try to explain its meanings to you. What does it say? Their knowledge of the hereafter has fallen short. One has to pay close attention to the words. It does not say they have no knowledge of the hereafter. It has fallen short.

Why has it fallen short?

Because they know that there is one Allah.

In this respect it fell short. But they do not know where they were created. They do not know that they were created in the realm of Lahut. Their knowledge fell short.

Moreover, it says, they are in doubt about it. That is, is there really a god or not? Were we created? Yes. They are in doubt, in doubt about this too. Beyond that, they are blind regarding the hereafter. Now let us pay a bit more attention to the word at the beginning. Their knowledge of the hereafter has fallen short. So there are people who have knowledge of the hereafter. People concerned with the hereafter have knowledge. Their knowledge of the hereafter has fallen short. Whose? The non-Muslims'. Well,

there are those who have knowledge of the hereafter. Who? Those who have reformed their nafs, risen to the nafs mutmainna, become aware of the divine manifestations, and from there gone further, risen to the nafs radiya, and with the nafs radiya, well, reached the state of ilm al-yaqin, and risen further from there. They have become Qutb al-Azam. And at Qutb al-Azam they have joined the righteous servants. Well, they have gone further from there. They have become Qutb al-Aqtab. They have risen to the safiya level of the nafs. And they have been honoured with the address "Alastu bi Rabbikum".

People who have been honoured with this address "Alastu bi Rabbikum" exist on earth. Not just one person. Well, who are they? Just as on earth people misconceive the Companions. A Companion is one who saw the Prophet. True. There are Companions in our time too.

Now, well, the Companions of our time, who are they? Those who saw the Prophet, we call them the noble Companions, they are the ashab-i kiram, the ashab. As soon as the Companions took the Prophet's hand, for the sake of the Prophet they would immediately become aware of the manifestations of Allah Almighty. a person becomes content and never leaves again. These are the Companions. The people who rise all at once to the mutmainna level of the nafs are the Companions. And on earth, those who, by reforming their nafs, rise to the mutmainna level of the nafs and become aware of the manifestations of Allah Almighty are Companions too.

So in the Prophet's time the Ashara al-Mubashshara existed. That is, those given glad tidings of paradise. They exist in our time too. Indeed, look what it says: their knowledge of the hereafter has fallen short. Those people know the hereafter. Who? Those Ashara al-Mubashshara, those given glad tidings of the hereafter, of paradise. They know the realm of the hereafter. They know the covenants of Allah Almighty. And trusting in the verse "Who is more true to his word than Allah", they know that, without slipping from this realm, when they pass on to the realm of the hereafter they will go to paradise.

These people cannot do evil on earth. These people cannot commit injustice. Everything they do is for Allah. so their characters are like that. So how beautifully Allah Almighty says it. Their knowledge of the hereafter has fallen short. Its meaning is very deep. How far does this go? Yes. Moreover, it says. Moreover. They are in doubt about it. Leave that aside, it says. And also, it says, about their being created they are in doubt. Beyond that too, it says. Beyond that too. They are blind regarding the hereafter, it says. They say, "Who has ever gone and come back to life?" They are blind. And in the face of so many events they still do not want to see.

These are words used in a figurative sense. Going by these, they say they will face it there as blind. People don't understand the verses, you see. Understanding a verse does not mean knowing Arabic. He translates it but cannot know its meaning. And he cannot even translate it properly. That is how they interpret it wrongly. The one who lives its meaning knows it. The one who beholds those realms knows. Yes. These two words, concerning (?), show how people have believed in the hereafter and their degrees of faith. As we explained here, we explained it briefly and in essence. But you have listened to me. Yes.

There are some people who have become Muslim. But although they believe in the hereafter, their knowledge of the hereafter is insufficient. Why insufficient? Because he has not seen those places. He has only believed. He knows that resurrection after death is true. He does not know how his end will be. How he will be treated, where his place will be, and what his rank will be is not made known to him. In this respect his knowledge of the hereafter is insufficient. There are also some people who are Muslims as well. They have believed Allah and His Messenger that there is resurrection after death.

But they are in doubt. They cannot free themselves from their "I wonder"s. I wonder, will we really be resurrected after death? With feelings like "I wonder, does Allah exist?", they are full of wondering. But they do not leave the religion of Islam either. Because their faith is weak, such people hardly come near worship. Their end, their passing to the hereafter at the moment of death, is uncertain. They may go as unbelievers. They may also go as Muslims. And there are some people. Where it says they are blind regarding the hereafter, this group of people are deniers. Just as they do not believe in Allah and His Messenger, they associate partners with Allah.

They worship Allah's creatures as gods. But believing there is no resurrection after death, they deny Allah and the hereafter. These people are blind regarding the hereafter. Yes.
