Explanation
In this Verse, they have opened it in the same way by saying that Our Lord took revenge on people by making them His enemies. In the 25th and 41st verses of this Surah, we have written that Our Lord does not take revenge on people. It is also useful to read the footnotes of these verses. Our Lord does not take revenge on people. From the meanings of these verses, people may have the following thoughts in their minds. When our Lord created human beings, He did not create them with His full knowledge, so some of them were created as enemies of our Lord. When the time came, our Lord took the opportunity to take revenge on them, and many such conjectures come to mind, but our Lord is exempt from such shortcomings. People take revenge on their own souls for their deeds.
What is said in the video
Verse 55 of Surah Az-Zukhruf has been rendered wrongly. So when they angered Us, We took revenge on them. We drowned them all, it says. And this, sir, it says about Pharaoh. Now people say this is correct. They say it's correct. Allah Almighty really was angry with them. What did He do? He drowned them, they say. Allah is angry with no one and does not become enraged. Sir, what does it say? So they grieved Us. They also overstepped the bounds. Look, that's right: Allah sent nine glad tidings (?) to Pharaoh, nine glad tidings (?), and "O Moses, we have believed in your Lord, and this glad tiding (?) — sir, this calamity — lift it from us, and we will believe in your Lord" — after seeing nine glad tidings (?), he himself still went on claiming divinity. Thus Allah Almighty — is it you who plays god like this? — sir, what does he do?
He overstepped Allah's laws, His bounds; they took revenge on their own selves. We drowned them all, says Allah Almighty. Yes, in this way, in the Holy Quran, many errors, sir — not in the verses, in their renderings, people gave wrong, wrong meanings; rendering them wrongly, they ascribed qualities to Allah Almighty.
