Ta-Ha 40: “(Recall) when your sister was saying, “Shall I find someone for you who will care for him?” And thus, for her eyes to be bright, and so that she will not be saddened, We gave you back to your mother. And oneday, you killed someone, and We saved you from worry. We made you encounter trial upon trial. For this, you lived among the people of Madyan for years. Then, you came to this status (according to your destiny), Oh Moses!”

The misinterpretation

You know, your sister was asking me to go and find someone to take care of her. So we gave you back to your mother so that her eyes would be filled with happiness and she would not be sad. And you killed someone so we saved you the worry. We've tried you thoroughly. For this reason, you remained among the people of Midian for years. Then you came (to this office) according to your discretion, O Moses!

The right translation

“(Recall) when your sister was saying, “Shall I find someone for you who will care for him?” And thus, for her eyes to be bright, and so that she will not be saddened, We gave you back to your mother. And oneday, you killed someone, and We saved you from worry. We made you encounter trial upon trial. For this, you lived among the people of Madyan for years. Then, you came to this status (according to your destiny), Oh Moses!”

Explanation

The wrong opening in this verse is this: We put you through trial after trial, verily: We have taken you from trial to trial (from calamity to calamity).

Since those who opened the translations were unaware of the meaning of Verse 172 of Sûrah A'râf and were far away from its meaning, they did not refrain from attributing shortcomings to our Lord while opening such Verses. However, our Lord is free from all deficient attributes. In Verse 172 of Surah A'râf, Our Lord has made a covenant with mankind and has written everyone's destiny for him. Our Lord is neither hostile to His creatures nor does He need to test people. Because our Lord, who made a covenant with people at Kalu Bela, has written their desires and wishes as their destiny.

In this case, He says, "We know the secrets of your hearts", and He also says in His verse: There is not a single creature that will come until the Day of Resurrection that we do not know what it will do. In that case, does our Lord put people to a test? The truth of this is: We have subjected you to trial after trial and calamity after calamity. This is the truth of the verse. Because everyone has a destiny, and within that destiny, our Lord tests people with their property and their lives to make them witnesses. People prove what kind of a person they are by their deeds. This is how calamities bring people to perfection. They teach lessons from the past and help people to reach the truth. Our Lord raised Hazrat Moses by subjecting him to such calamities in his destiny.

What is said in the video

So that you'd be raised, I gave you love from Myself, it says. In the fortieth verse it was rendered wrongly. Once they've rendered one wrongly, you see? After that they render everything so as to support each other anyway.

Your sister went and said: shall I find you someone to look after him? So, so that her eyes and heart would fill with joy and she would not grieve, We returned you to your mother. And you killed someone, and We saved you from worry. We tested you thoroughly. Now here it was all correct. He put him through testing. As if Allah doesn't know and is testing Moses now.

Words are very important. Words. This is Allah's word. Allah's. Not Ahmet's or Mehmet's word. Sir, Allah tests no one. He knows what all of it is. Sir: We put you through testing. For this you stayed among the people of Midian for years. Then by a (?) decree you came to this station, O Moses, it says. Now we read it. It's all correct; we'll now correct that one spot. Your sister went and said: shall I find you someone to look after him? So, so that her eyes and heart would be joyful and she would not grieve, We returned you to your mother. And you killed someone, and We saved you from worry. We made you go from trial to trial, from affliction to affliction.

For this you stayed among the people of Midian for years. That's how He made him go through it. Like this. Allah Almighty. Then by your destiny you came to this station, O Moses, it says. Yes. It doesn't say 'to test you'. What does it say? We made you go from trial to trial, from affliction to affliction. Do you see? The meanings in parentheses.
