The misinterpretation

We, on the other hand, wanted to favor those who were weakened in that place, to make them leaders and to make them heirs (to the holy land).

The right translation

But We desired to give Our blessings (with justice) to those who were oppressed in that land, saved them and placed them (to the holy lands).

Explanation

This verse is completely wrong in its meaning. When it says to show favor to those who are weakened, does our Lord discriminate between His servants and give special treatment to them, even though many powerful people are in oppression? They are opening the verse wrongly. This is the correct opening of the verse so far: We wanted to favor those who were oppressed in that place (with our justice). Our Lord creates reasons to bring people into their destiny when they are out of their destiny, when our Lord creates reasons to bring them into their destiny. The verse says that they prepare a trap and We prepare a trap, but We are the best of those who prepare a trap. This means that people want to oppress people against their destiny. Our Lord puts the cruelty of such people into their destiny. Our Lord's trap is to put people into their destiny. Otherwise, He does not treat people in any way other than their destiny.

Then we wanted to make them leaders and make them heirs to the holy land. Whatever our Lord willed, it did not happen. So does His will here apply only to this tribe? If that were so, then our Lord would be doing injustice and discriminating between His servants. When the verses are opened incorrectly, does it not follow that our Lord's covenant with the people in the Elestu bi Rabbikum address has no value at all, both in terms of injustice and discrimination between people, and in terms of exercising His will over people by removing their will from them? The correct opening of the verse is as follows:

And We wanted to favor the oppressed in that place (with Our justice), and We saved them (from oppression) and We settled them (in the holy land). Allah (swt) settled them in the holy land to prove what kind of people they were in their destiny. But they did not rest there. When they rebelled against the Prophet's order, our Lord imprisoned them on the Field of Tih, and after 40 years of imprisonment, they were freed from the Field of Tih by killing Goliath with their children and the Prophet David.

What is said in the video

We've come to Surah Al-Qasas. In Surah Al-Qasas the fifth verse has been translated wrongly.

And We, to those made weak in the land, to bestow favour, to make them leaders and make them heirs to the holy lands, We wished, it says.

Allah Almighty says this about the people of Israel. Why does He say it? Look, listen to this part well, here there's a big mistake. And We, to those made weak in the land, to bestow favour, to make them leaders and to make them heirs to the holy lands, We wished. The Jews translated it like this for themselves, for money.

Yes. And We, to those oppressed in the land; what does this mean? Not "made weak in the land". The oppressed. Egypt, Pharaoh used them in the sewers, in the worst jobs. Used them on the roads, with stones, in torment. So: And We wished, to those oppressed in the land, with Our justice, with Our justice, to bestow favour. With Our justice. They darkness, We saved them from darkness, and settled them in the holy lands. We settled them in the holy lands. Where would you say the holy land is?

Tuwa. Which desert?

They were captive there, right? Mount Sinai. Why (?)?

Well, where is Tuwa? A place at Mount Sinai. The place where Moses saw Allah Almighty. In the form of fire. Yes.

Here it says We made them heirs. Look, heir. Heir is one thing, settling is another. With justice. He takes them. With justice. What does He say? You are a tyrant. Even though these are not deniers, you are to judge with justice. But if you compromise your justice, Allah's justice encompasses the whole universe. I stop your oppression and with justice, to prove what kind of person he is, I give him time, take him as far as a certain holy land and settle him there, He says. Settling is one thing, making heir another. Ömer has a house. I am Ömer's heir. When Ömer passed on to the hereafter, the house was left to me.

Is that so? Heir. Ömer has a house. He came and settled me there.

I'm not an heir. If he himself has passed away, he has his heirs. They will get it. Do you get it (?) Yes.

Well,
