At-Tahrim 8: Oh, you believers! Turn to Allah with sincere repentance so your Lord may remove your sins and admit you to gardens beneath which rivers flow. On that Day, Allah will not disgrace the Prophet and those who believed with him. Their light will shine before them and on their right, and they will say, “Our Lord, perfect our light for us and forgive us. You are the Almighty, capable of all things.”

The misinterpretation

O you who believe! Turn to God with sincere repentance. It is hoped that Allah will admit you to Gardens with rivers flowing in them on the day when the Prophet and those who believed with him will not be shamed. When their light shines brightly before them and from their right hands; O our Lord! Complete our light for us, forgive us; Because you are omnipotent, they say.

The right translation

Oh, you believers! Turn to Allah with sincere repentance so your Lord may remove your sins and admit you to gardens beneath which rivers flow. On that Day, Allah will not disgrace the Prophet and those who believed with him. Their light will shine before them and on their right, and they will say, “Our Lord, perfect our light for us and forgive us. You are the Almighty, capable of all things.”

Explanation

This is where this verse goes wrong: It is hoped. The truth is: (for those of you who will return)

When they opened the Verses, they repeated the same Verses in the same way, always referring to our Lord. We put the footnotes of the verses we have already written under the repeated verses as a repetition. Our Lord does not use the words "hopefully", "may be" or "may be" when He forgives the sins or the lives of the people. The word "may be" means that He is unaware of the future, He will evaluate people according to their situation, and even if they are hypocrites, He will test them and decide accordingly without knowing their situation. However, he should use the word Ta ki here. Ta ki is a demonstrative pronoun. Since our Lord knows that there will be Muslims in a tribe, it is a matter of giving them a unit of time.

The meaning of "hopefully", "perhaps" or "may be" is: I will look at your situation and if you are well, I will bring you to salvation or relief. However, our Lord made a covenant with human beings after the Elestu bi Rabbikum address and their desires and wishes were written down for them as destiny and these worlds were programmed until the Day of Resurrection. In this case, instead of "hopefully" or "perhaps", we should use "until", which is a demonstrative pronoun and refers to those who will convert to Islam within a people and within a given period of time. That is why our Lord does not use the words hopefully, perhaps or maybe. It is to be hoped that maybe, maybe or maybe his word will adjectivize our Lord.

What is said in the video

what does it say? O you who believe, turn to Allah in sincere repentance. Of course, sincere repentance: with your tongue you will repent, and with your heart too you will affirm and confirm; confirmation by the heart, and with your tongue declaration you will make. Nothing without confirmation by the heart is valid. Nothing without confirmation by the heart is valid. Is there a verse for this? There is. There is. I say nothing without a verse. Allah Almighty says in the verse: if, it says, they want to force you to renounce it with your tongue and they torment you, if they torment you, and in that torment you said "I turned back", still do not confirm it with your heart, it says.

See how beautiful. You said it with your tongue, you did not confirm it with your heart. The hypocrites too say it with the tongue but do not confirm it with the heart. So when we do something, we will say it with our tongue and confirm it with the heart. What do we say? Ashhadu an la ilaha illallah. I bear witness that there is no god but Allah. On what basis do you bear witness to this? Allah Almighty does not make you bear witness to something you do not know, have not seen, have not heard. He invited you to faith in the unseen. To faith in the unseen. This faith in the unseen world: the covenant we gave (?), when we come into the world, in a realm where our Lord is not seen, He has us confirm it.

That is, at the address "Elestü bi-Rabbiküm" we saw Allah very well. Very well we made a mutual covenant with Allah Almighty. And so what do we say? Ashhadu an la ilaha illallah. Allah Almighty, who created us from nothing, Allah who is our owner, besides Him there is no we say there is no god. And ashhadu anna Muhammadan abduhu wa rasuluhu. Muhammad is His servant and messenger, we say. How beautiful. We confirm it in our heart.

Well, Hodja, maybe you saw it and so you say it, we didn't see. No, all of you saw, the non-Muslim saw too, the idolater saw too, the Magian saw too, the religious and the irreligious, all saw, in the realm of lahut all saw. If they had not seen — today in the untrodden jungles of Africa the tom-tom people who eat human flesh, well, there are none left now — they too know they were created by something and worship something. They all worship something. Doctor Darwin says there is no God. If there is no God, what are you trying to prove, if there is no God? By saying there is no God, aren't you displaying your own ignorance?

Like this, aren't you displaying your ignorance? A so-called doctor. You say man came from the ape. Fine, man came from the ape. Because the Sabbath people went against the command of Allah Almighty, sir, because of their fishing, against Allah's command, people were turned into apes. They stayed so for three days; after three days they returned to (?). Let's say it was the ape — did the ape create itself? No being, nothing apart from Allah, nothing created, or nothing comes into being from nothing, nor does what exists become nothing. Apart from Allah. Only Allah, only Allah will create. Or He will annihilate.

Yes.

We read the verse. O you who believe, turn to Allah in sincere repentance. Here it says "it is hoped that", God forbid. "It is hoped that", it says, on the day He will not disgrace the Prophet and those who believe with him, Allah will admit you into gardens beneath which rivers flow. The light of their deeds shines before them and on their right. Our Lord, perfect our light for us. Forgive us. For You have power over all things, they say. Now we read the correct one. O you who believe! Turn to Allah in sincere repentance. So that, for those among you who will turn, your Lord your evil deeds — may your Lord cover your evil deeds.

On the day He will not disgrace the Prophet and those who believe with him, may Allah put you into gardens beneath which rivers flow. Before them and on their right their deeds, the light of their deeds shines, and they say: Our Lord, perfect our light for us. Forgive us. For You have power over all things, they say. Yes. How beautiful. How beautiful.
