The misinterpretation

Allah will never forgive those who disbelieve and wrong. Nor will He guide them on (another) path.

The right translation

Allah is not to forgive those infidels who commit oppression. While they are on this wicked path.

Explanation

This is where this verse goes wrong: Allah will never forgive those who disbelieve and do wrong. Nor will He guide them to another way. The truth is: Those who disbelieve and do wrong, Allah will not forgive them (as long as they remain in that state), they are on an evil way.

When the translators open the verses, they open the verses using a precise wording, as if even if people make the slightest mistake, our Lord will not forgive those people who turn back to Allah (swt). The truth of the verse is explained above. Allah keeps the door of repentance open. He is waiting for people to return to Him. There is no human being who repents and returns to our Lord so that our Lord does not accept their repentance. Because our Lord says in His verse, "I am the Tawwab, the One who accepts repentance in abundance".

In this case, our Lord will not forgive those who disbelieve and do not return to Him and pass on to the Hereafter in that state. Because man was sent to this world to prove what kind of a person he is. In this case, if a person proved himself and went to the Hereafter as a disbeliever, there is no forgiveness for that. Because our Lord says in His verse: Those on whom I have removed My Mercy have neither a helper nor an intercessor. He says, "They are alone there.

What is said in the video

We left off at verse 168. Page 13, verse 168: yes, "Those who disbelieve and do wrong, Allah will never forgive" - I'm reading you the wrong version - what does it say now: "those who do wrong", having done wrong, who disbelieve and do wrong. He will both deny - that is, denial means being outside Allah Almighty's commands and prohibitions, outside Islam, that is, being a non- Muslim. "Those who do wrong, Allah will never forgive. Nor will He guide them to another way." Now there are many errors here. This verse has been explained wrongly in many ways.

Now, the first thing explained wrongly: "those who do wrong", "who disbelieved, those who do wrong He will never forgive," it says.

Whereas this must be explained like this: those who disbelieve and do wrong, as long as they remain in that state, Allah will not forgive them. As long as he remains in that state. Then we come to the second. "Nor will He guide them to another way." Allah guides no one, no one, to any way. But what do we say? Allah will not forgive them. These are on an evil way. They are on an evil way. It's not that He'll guide them to any way or anything; Allah guides no one to any way. Allah Almighty only makes His commands known; according to this command, people, by carrying out Allah Almighty's command or not, certainly incur sin.

If Allah Almighty were to guide, removing people's will and steering man under His own will, that situation would arise, and such a thing is never possible.
