The misinterpretation

We descend only by the command of your Lord. Everything that is before us, behind us and in between belongs to Him. Your Lord is not forgetful.

The right translation

The order of your Lord descends. Everything in front of you, behind you and between the two belongs to Allah. Your Lord is not forgetful.

Explanation

This is where it is wrong: We descend only at the command of your Lord. The truth is: The command of your Lord descends.

Is there any Lord other than Allah (swt), so when they open the Verse of our Lord, they say that we descend only at the command of our Lord? The truth of the verse is that the command of the Lord descends. With what? Through the Books, through other Prophets, Allah (swt) informs people of His commands. Here they say: "We descend only by the command of your Lord." Who descends where and what is said to whom among the people? But if we look at the previous verses, it will become clear that they open the verse like superstitions. If we add the next verse, we get a meaningless meaning that is completely contradictory to the meaning of the verse and outside the adjective of our Lord. If we put one or two of the previous verses here, it will be clear how wrong they have opened the verse.

61- Gardens of Adn, which the Most Merciful has promised to His servants in the unseen. Surely His promise will be fulfilled.

62- Therein they hear not idle talk, but pleasant talk. And therein is their sustenance morning and evening.

63- This is the Paradise We give to those of Our servants who have piety.

Now what is the meaning of the verse that was opened wrongly.

64- We descend only by the Command of your Lord. To Him belongs everything that is before us, behind us and in between. Your Lord is not forgetful.

If they open this verse in this way, they are saying that there is another Lord besides our Lord and that our Lord descends at the command of that imaginary Lord who is the creator. However, according to the way the verses are written, it is the command of the Lord that descends. All that is before you, behind you and in between belongs to Him. Your Lord is not forgetful. And in the next Verse our Lord says. 65- He is Lord of the heavens and the earth and all that is between them. So serve Him. Be patient and steadfast in serving Him. Do you know that He has a namesake (He has no likeness)?

This is the damage done to Islam by those who open the verses randomly and have turned the religion of Islam into superstition.

What is said in the video

64. In the verse, wrongly rendered: We only descend by your Lord's command. We only descend by your Lord's command. Everything before us, behind us, and in between belongs to Him. Your Lord, your Lord is not forgetful, it says. Yes, now here: we only descend by your Lord's command, it says. Here it's not 'descend by your Lord's command'. Your Lord's command descends. Look what it says: we only descend by your Lord's command. Whereas your Lord's command descends, before us, behind you. Before us, behind us; here it says behind us. behind you, and everything in between belongs to Him. Your Lord is not forgetful, it says.

Yes.

They made a distinction in one word, through letters. Your Lord's command descends; we only descend by your Lord's command. Of course, 'we descend by your Lord's command' is one thing, 'your Lord's command descends' another. Yes. Everything before you, behind you, and in between belongs to Him. Your Lord is not forgetful, it says.
