The misinterpretation

We certainly gave Moses and Aaron a light, an admonition, and Furqan for the pious.

The right translation

Vow to that; We gave to Moses and Aaron Furqan. (At the same time) it is an enlightenment and an admonishment for the muttaqi (righteous ones who abstain).

Explanation

This Verse is wrong from the beginning: We gave to Moses and Aaron a light and an admonition and the Furqan for the owners of piety. Verily: And certainly We gave to Moses and Aaron the Furqan (and it is) a light and an admonition for the owners of piety.

Our Lord did not give the Furqan only for the owners of piety. He sent it to Moses, the Prophet of the people of Israel, and his people, the Children of Israel. But it is a light and an admonition for the pious who follow the Furqan. Our Lord does not do injustice by discriminating between His servants. He sent the Torah to the Children of Israel, the people of Moses, and the Furqan is a light and a reminder for those who follow the Furqan. The true and literal meaning of the verse is as follows: And certainly We gave Moses and Aaron the Furqan (and it is) a light and an admonition for the owners of piety.

What is said in the video

Well, in Surah Al-Anbiya, another one, verse 48, there is a place that was translated wrongly. Indeed, We gave Moses and Aaron, for the God-fearing, a light, an admonition and the Furqan, it says. For the God-fearing. Now: indeed, We gave Moses and Aaron, for the God-fearing, a light, an admonition and the Furqan. Whereas what do we say here? Indeed, We gave Moses and Aaron the Furqan. At the same time, it is a light and an admonition for the God-fearing. That is, Allah Almighty gives it to all people; it is not only to the God-fearing that He gives admonition and light. What does it say here? Indeed, We gave Moses and Aaron, for the God-fearing, a light, an admonition, the Furqan, it says. Whereas Allah's verses are for all of the peoples they came to.

For example, the Prophet came as a mercy to the worlds. To the Prophet (peace be upon him), who came as a mercy to the worlds, the Holy Quran was revealed. The Holy Quran is for all the worlds. Because the Prophet (peace be upon him) is Hâteme'n-Nebiyyîn, the last, the prophet who ended prophethood and came as a mercy to all the worlds; that is why the Quran is for all the worlds. The other prophets came to their own peoples. These are people by people. Now, in this case, what does it say? To Moses, to Aaron and to Moses We gave, for the God-fearing, a light, an admonition, it says, the Furqan. Now, the God-fearing are already God-fearing.

Well, you give it to them and not to the others. The others could say: had You given it to me too, I would have been like them. Whereas the meaning is not like that. That is, the meaning is not as they translated it here. The meaning: By oath, We gave Musa and Harun the Furqan. Whereas what does it say here? We gave Moses and Aaron, for the God-fearing, a light, an admonition, the Furqan. For a light, an admonition. For the God-fearing, it says. Whereas: We gave Moses and Aaron the Furqan. There are no God-fearing here. No God-fearing. What is there? A light, for a leader (?), We gave the Furqan.

We gave the Furqan. At the same time it is a light and an admonition for the God-fearing. Moreover, for those who believe in it, the God-fearing, it is a light, an admonition, it says. Yes. They translated the words very wrongly. Here they have led people astray every time. They always attributed it to Allah Almighty.
