The misinterpretation

Only those who are patient can achieve this (this good behavior). Only one who has a great share (of good) will be granted this.

The right translation

Only those who show patience will attain this (beautiful manner). Only those who have a great share (in goodness) will attain this.

Explanation

This is where this verse goes wrong: He is brought together. The correct one is: He'll get over it.

Our Lord has sent people to prove what kind of a person they are in this world. When it is said that people are rewarded by our Lord for their good deeds in charity and good deeds, it also means that this person is helped and rewarded. However, every human being reaches his reward in the sight of our Lord with the good deeds and good deeds he does of his own will.

Verse 35 of Surah Fussilat, too, has been translated wrongly, and this is also a verse of prostration. Let's read the wrong one, we'll all prostrate together, all right? Yes. 'To this, this good conduct' — this is the wrong translation — 'none are brought except those who are patient. And none are brought to it except one who has a great share (of good),' it says.

Where is the mistake here? 'To this good conduct none are brought except those who are patient. None are brought to it except one who has a great share of good.'

Now, when it says 'are brought to', a person says: I was patient too, so let Him bring me to it too. Well, I too, one or two things like this, a person is patient too, but what does it say here, the thing: to this good conduct only the patient attain. A person, by his own will, attains it as long as he continues on Allah's path, because Allah has placed before us a Book; those who follow it reach Allah on that path. When it says 'are brought to', Allah Almighty, with certain favours, to that person gives reinforcement, and with extra rewards raises him to a certain rank. Then, if the person's nafs is not in a state to match that rank, the person tumbles over there.

Yes. That is why Allah Almighty uses His attribute of justice. He knows step by step where the person has reached. He knows which elements he can bear. Accordingly, He raises him step by step. Yes.
