Az-Zumar 23: Allah has sent down the most beautiful of the words as a Book, (whose verses are) in harmonious with each other, repetitively readable without tiredness. Those who fear Allah, shudder from its (The Qur’an) effect, and then, their flesh and hearts soften and warm up to Allah’s dhikr. So that, This Book is the guidance from Allah to whom desire to find the righteous path. And those who turn away from Allah’s path, they can’t find guidance (while they contiune to turn away).

In the twenty- third verse it has been rendered wrongly. We're reading the wrong version: Allah, the best of speech, consistent with itself — look how nicely it says it — Allah the best of speech, and consistent with itself, it says. That is, one word He has said does not belie, does not contradict another word of His. How nicely it says it here. Well now, is the one above correct?

I'm reading the wrong version, mind you. And when I read the wrong version, not all of it is wrong. The places in it where it ascribes attributes — in order to ascribe attributes to Allah, it was tampered with for centuries, tampered with, and this book was written this way. Yes. Allah sent down the best of His speech, consistent with itself, read over and over without tiring, as a book. The Quran. Does it ever bore a person? I read one juz every day, and it becomes a habit. It draws you in like this. Sometimes I even read two juz. Yes.

Those who fear their Lord — from the effect of this book their skin shivers. How beautiful. Those who fear their Lord.

Even when they hear the word of Allah, it says.

When they see in the Quran what they heard in their own books, it says, they fall into prostration, it says. That is the verse of prostration. The same verses confirm each other. Let's see now, is there a statement here that will contradict any verse?

Yes.

Then both their bodies and their hearts warm and soften to the remembrance of Allah. How beautiful. This book — Allah guided whom He wills to the right path with it. Now, wrong. Look, is this right now? Look what it says: Allah's — whom Allah wills, that is, He chooses from here — whom He wills, with it, to the right path He guides — it is a guide of guidance, guidance, it says. It is the guide of guidance with which Allah guides whom He wills to the right path. Yes. That is, now He has made a distinction among people here. You, come here, (?). I mean, Allah Almighty created, that is, to wrong people.

That's what it says anyway. Surah Al-A'raf, verse 179 — what does it say? Ve lekad zere'na li cehenneme kesiran minel cinni vel insi. 'We have surely created many of the jinn and mankind for Hell,' it says. So they have always rendered the verses contrary to each other like this, always. They did this deliberately. Whereas: surely Hell was created for many of the jinn and mankind. Something else? 'Surely We created many of the jinn and mankind for Hell' is something else. Allah does not create anyone for Hell. Since will is twofold, He will call to account by his own will the human He left free in his will.

If you want, left; if you want, right. Whichever side you want. Yes. Whomever Allah leads astray, then there is no one to guide him, it says. Good heavens, whom would Allah lead astray? Is this fitting for Allah? Is this fitting for the servant He created? If you had a hundred, a thousand, ten thousand, a hundred thousand children, would you wrong your children, as a human being? Allah too created the people He created as the noblest of creatures, gave them a part of His spirit, created them honored above the worlds, honored. In that case, as Allah loves people, He sent one percent of His mercy to the world, keeping ninety-nine percent for Himself — would the Sovereign abundant in mercy create people in order to wrong them? What an amazing thing. (?) will drive them. Now I'm reading the correct one. Look: Allah, the best of His speech, consistent with itself, as a book read over and over without tiring, sent down.

Those who fear their Lord — from the effect of this book their skin shivers, then both their bodies and their hearts warm and soften to the remembrance of Allah. Correct; let's write (?), it was correct. Now, this book, for whoever asks of Allah, is the guide of guidance that shows the right path with it. Look what we say: for whoever asks of Allah — the person who asks — that shows the right path with it, it is the guide of guidance. And whoever strays from Allah, as long as he remains in that state, he can no longer come to the right path. If he strays from Allah, if he remains in that state, he cannot come to the right path.

Now that is one thing, this is another.

If there is any deficiency, you tell me this deficiency.
