The misinterpretation

Some of them are looking at you. But will you guide the blind if they do not see (the truth)?

The right translation

There are some among them who look at you. But if they are still unwilling to see (the Truth), will you guide the blind ones to the Truth?

Explanation

The wrong opening in this verse reads as follows: But will you guide the blind if they do not see? The truth is: But will you guide the blind if they still refuse to see?

But it is a different meaning if they still do not see (the truth). But it is a different meaning if they still do not want to see (the truth). Allah (swt) makes a distinction between His servants and does not give people a mind that cannot see the truth, which is an attribute of Allah (swt). But when it is said that they do not want to see the truth, it goes back to the address Elestu bi Rabbikum. When Allah (swt) created our souls in the realm of Lahut and said I am your Lord, our souls were divided into three parts there. When our Lord said, "I am your Lord" in front of the people, the people who knew that they were created by a Lord denied our Lord who created them because they saw Allah in the form of a human being and became arrogant against our Lord, waiting for the Lord of their own imagination. Allah (swt) says to the Prophet (s.a.w.) in one of His Verses, "My Habib, do not grieve that they disbelieved in you, for they disbelieved in me at the time.

When they open the verse, but they open the verse as if they still do not see (the truth), people who do not know these verses have opened the verses according to their own minds. The meaning of the verse is the equivalent of the above-mentioned verse, "if they do not want to see the truth", and these are the people who do not want to return to the truth even though they know the truth, and our Lord says the following verse about these people. In the 7th Verse of Surah Al-Baqarah: "They have had their hearts sealed to Allah (there) because they disbelieved in Him in the address of Elestu bi Rabbikum. They have put weights on their ears and veils over their eyes. For them is a great torment". Already in the continuation of the verse, our Lord says: Will you guide the blind? He says to those who saw our Lord in Kalu Bela, but could not recognize our Lord as Lord and were waiting for the Lord of their dreams, will you guide them?

What is said in the video

the deaf, and moreover those who do not use their minds — will you make them hear, it says. How beautiful.

In Surah Yunus, verse 43, a wrongly translated verse. Among them are also those who look at you. But if they still do not see the truth, will you bring the blind to what is right? How nicely it puts it. Look, among them are also those who look at you. This is the wrongly translated one. But if they still do not see the truth, will you guide the blind to the right path, it says. Where is the mistake here?

This too, just like the previous verse, the words have been translated wrongly. Now it says: among them are also those who look at you. But if they still do not see the truth — why do they not see the truth? They do see the truth. When it is explained, the truth is seen. Because Allah Almighty has given a mind that will see the truth. So here that part should be translated like this: But if they still do not want to see the truth, if they do not want to see the truth. Because these are deniers. Sir, will you guide the blind to the right path, it says. Correct. But if they still do not want to see the truth.

Because every mind, as long as the truth is explained correctly, will accept what is right — Allah Almighty has given the mind in such a state. But if a person does not want to see because of the feelings of his nafs — people who try to throw falsehood onto the truth. However much they (?) falsehood onto the truth — the truth has come, and falsehood has vanished. If they persist in their own stubbornness on that same path of Satan, and have Satan's lasso put around their own necks and with their nafs go after him, after Satan, as slaves, surely they will not think of the truth and will not want to see it.

Otherwise, for a person who wants to see the truth, the capacity of the mind is open. Yes.
