The misinterpretation

As for those for whom a good end has been ordained by Us, they will be kept away from Hell.

The right translation

Verily, those who have been commiting good deeds, thus, given goodness from Us, they will be kept far from hell.

Explanation

This is the wrong place in this verse: As for those to whom good fortune has been decreed from Us, verily: As for those who have had good fortunes assigned to them. The translators have opened the verses completely upside down and have attributed shortcomings to our Lord. Our Lord does not do injustice among His servants, leaving those who are higher in rank and not favoring those who are lower in rank over those who are higher in rank. Does our Lord leave all Muslims who obey Him, but keeps only those whom He loves away from Hell by favoring those who are high in rank?

There are seven states of the soul and accordingly there are seven heavens. The eighth heaven is Maqam Mahmud. It is reserved for the Prophet (s.a.w.) and his Ahlul Bayt. Muslims are kept away from Hell. Because if Paradise is forbidden to the infidels, then even if the sinners of the Muslims enter Hell and serve their punishment, their eternal stay in Hell is forbidden to the Muslims.

Our Lord says in the 131st Verse of Surah Al-Imran: (Beware of the Fire prepared for the disbelievers) Our Lord says in the 24th Verse of Surah Al-Baqarah: (You cannot do it, you will certainly not be able to do it. So beware of that Fire whose igniter is men and stones (it is prepared for the disbelievers). When a Muslim enters Hell, the light of faith in him keeps him away from the fire of Hell. The correct opening of the verse without attributing shortcomings to our Lord is as follows: And as for those who have made themselves worthy of good fortune, they will be kept away from Hell.

What is said in the video

Let's see where else there is a wrongly translated verse. There is verse 101. What does it say? As for those for whom a good end has been ordained by Us, these will be kept far from Hell, it says. Now here too Allah Almighty makes a distinction among His servants. Where is this distinction? As for those for whom a good end has been ordained by Us, it says. Now here: as for those who had good ends ordained for themselves — look, it is always in the person himself, that is, what does this resemble? In the address Elestü bi Rabbiküm, when He said "I am your Lord", those who gave Allah a good covenant: according to the people's degree of faith in their hearts towards Allah Almighty, Allah Almighty writes his destiny.

Likewise, although Allah Almighty said "I am your Lord", in this Elestü bi Rabbiküm address, people also come forth who are rebels (?). Since when are you my Lord, they say. He waits for the Lord of his own imagination. Now in this case: as for those for whom a good end has been ordained by Us, he says. Of course Allah, to those who follow Him, their situation, will ordain good ends (?). But here, because this is general, it turns into a misleading statement. What did it say? Those for whom a good end has been ordained by Us. That is, here He makes a distinction among the servants He (?) created.

Whereas here, look: as for those who had good ends ordained for themselves, Allah Almighty speaks His word. Those who obey this word are separate. Those who do not obey are also separated here. And what do we say here? As for those who had good ends ordained for themselves, these were kept far from Hell. So, did Allah Almighty send us the religion of Islam? Did He send the Prophet as a mercy to the worlds? He did. And did we believe? We did. Those who believed, what did they do? To Paradise. Those who do not believe, where to? To Hell. Aren't these matters here within the person's own comprehension?

Here too they tie it to Allah's comprehension (?), that is, to His command. Whereas will is twofold: universal will and partial will. Partial will: what he wishes by his own desire and will, his aim, Allah Almighty gives him. And the other one gives his own aim towards not knowing Allah. In this case, although everyone will be held to account for the deeds he does, here they attribute it to Allah Almighty: those for whom a good end has been ordained by Us. That is: I give you a good end, I love you all, you are for Paradise. The others, the others are for Hell. Doesn't it mean that? That is how I understand it.

Look: as for those for whom a good end has been ordained by Us, but here: as for those who had good ends ordained for themselves, those who by their own desire and will found desire and longing for those good ends, well, and sought them. Yes.
