The misinterpretation
(We guided) in Ishmael, Elisa, Yunus, and Lot. We have made them superior to the realms
The right translation
Ismaeel, Elyesa, Jonas and Lot (also attained guidance); all of them were superior above the worlds.
Explanation
They have opened the wrong place here as a repetition of the verse they opened wrongly in the previous verse. If we briefly explain the meaning of this Verse as a repetition. Our Lord does not do injustice by discriminating between people of His own will. Our Lord judges between people according to the degree of faith of each person. The correct opening of this verse is: He was one of the supreme over the worlds.
In the wrong place: When they say: "We have made him superior to the worlds", it means that the Prophet (PBUH) is inferior to Ishmael, Elyesa, Jonah and Lot, hasha! Since all the Prophets were created from the spirit of the Prophet (pbuh) and from his light these worlds were created, the Prophet (pbuh) came as a mercy to the worlds. The correct opening of the verse, as we have written above, was from the superior over the worlds.
What is said in the video
Ishmael, Elisha, Jonah and Lot too We guided; Lot too We guided. We made them all superior to the worlds, it says. Whereas Ishmael, Elisha, Jonah and Lot too were among those who attained guidance. By their own wish and desire. Because will lies in man. And what do they say: removing a person's will from him does not amount to denying his will, it says. Even if you deny it, man has a will. Even if you don't, man has a will. If you take away a person's will and use Allah Almighty's will over the person, then according to your own reason you fit Allah into your own head, and like a person in front of you, you talk to Allah as if you were consulting with him.
Whereas Allah does not fit into the human mind. Yes.
Whereas the verse: Ishmael, Elisha, Jonah and Lot too were among those who attained guidance. All of them were among those superior over the worlds. They would govern; they were among those superior over the worlds. Well now, aren't there those who are superior over the worlds? There are. The friends of Allah. The Qutb al-Azam, the Qutb al-Aqtab, these, martyrs, martyrs, the martyrs, saints, the friends of Allah. Now, is the unbeliever superior, or is this one superior? Is the nafs al-ammara superior, or the nafs al-radiya, the nafs al-mardiyya, the nafs al-safiya?
Yes.
