Al-Muddaththir 31: We have appointed only the angels to be wardens of the hell. We have made their number only a test for the deniers; so, the people of the Book will learn thoroughly and the faith of the believers will increase. And so, the people of the Book and the mu’min (The righteous ones) will not have doubts, and those who have sicknesses in their hearts and those blasphemers will say; “What did Allah mean by this example?” As such; Those who desire (from Allah by their covenant) will stay in denial, and those who desire guidance (from Allah) will be guided (to the Truth). Nobody knows Your Lord’s Forces, but only your Lord (Allah). This is a reminder for all mankind.

The misinterpretation

We have only commissioned angels to look after the affairs of Hell. And we have made their number only a trial for the unbelievers, so that those who have been given the Book may learn and increase the faith of those who believe. Let those who have been given the Book and the believers not be in doubt. Let them say. Thus, Allah leaves whom He wills astray and guides whom He wills to the straight path. No one knows the armies of your Lord except Himself. This is an advice for humanity.

The right translation

We have appointed only the angels to be wardens of the hell. We have made their number only a test for the deniers; so, the people of the Book will learn thoroughly and the faith of the believers will increase. And so, the people of the Book and the mu’min (The righteous ones) will not have doubts, and those who have sicknesses in their hearts and those blasphemers will say; “What did Allah mean by this example?” As such; Those who desire (from Allah by their covenant) will stay in denial, and those who desire guidance (from Allah) will be guided (to the Truth). Nobody knows Your Lord’s Forces, but only your Lord (Allah). This is a reminder for all mankind.

Explanation

This is where this verse goes wrong: He leaves whom He wills in error and guides whom He wills. The truth is: Whoever wills of Allah will remain in error, and whoever wills of Allah will be guided. We have written in many verses that our Lord has no will over mankind, and since the Qur'an refers to will as repetition, we are putting our footnote about will as repetition.

In this verse we have written that our Lord has no will over people, that every soul has a covenant with our Lord, and that people's desires and wishes are their destiny, and in this case our Lord has no will over people. It is explained in detail in verse 172 of Surah A'raf. What were we created for, where were we created, why did He make a covenant with mankind, and why did He send us into the world, even though He knew what we were? You can get information there.

Also, Our Lord does not lead anyone astray by exercising His will over people in the worldly realm. Our Lord invites all His servants to Himself. He has sent the Holy Qur'an as a mercy to the worlds. In this case, our Lord judges with justice, not discriminating between His servants.

When our Lord and mankind made a covenant at Kalu Bela, they dictated their destiny to themselves. In this case, those who deny our Lord at Kalu Bela will of course continue to deny Him in the worldly realm. Because his desires and wishes have become his destiny and he has been given characters to live out this destiny in return for his desires and wishes.

When people come to this world, with these characters, they have the desire and desire for the deeds they will do, and our Lord creates causes for them, and they receive rewards or sins for their deeds. So in this worldly life, our Lord never interferes in what people do. People prove what kind of person they are in return for what they do.

What is said in the video

there is. Verse thirty-one, a long verse. Let's read and see where here they've put the error. To attend to the affairs of Hell, We have assigned only angels. Correct. There in Hell there are the Zabaniya angels. Zabaniya angel. Just like our wrestlers. Anyway, from there (?). (?), they say, downward. On the head a single topknot, like this. Bare at the end, from here down, the upper part. Exactly, it has a (?). A topknot. He grabs the man by the nape, straight into the fire. Count five or six seconds. Out comes a pitch-black man, jet-black on the ground. He keeps moving (?). After five or six seconds the black skin on him, like soil cracking, cracks. The person begins to moan.

Then, when bright white skin comes out beneath, he tries to come back to life. He comes back to life, that skin falls off, he lifts him into Hell again, into the fire. It goes on like this. May Allah protect us from such an end. Yes. We have assigned only angels to attend to the affairs of Hell. And We made their number only a means of trial for the disbelievers, so that those given the Book may learn thoroughly and learn. That it may increase the faith of those who believe. That both those given the Book and the believers may not fall into doubt. And that those in whose hearts is a disease, and the disbelievers, may say: what did Allah mean by this example?

Thus Allah leaves in error whom He wills. This is where they've led it astray. Up to here it's correct. And guides whom He wills to the right path, it says. None knows the armies of your Lord but Him. And this is only an admonition for mankind, it says. Now, in one narration Hell has seven gates, it says. And in another narration it has nineteen gates, it says. Nineteen gates. The noble Basmala too has nineteen letters. This: a person who once, it says, with a sincere heart (?) says the noble Basmala, the gates of Hell close to him, it says. And those who say the noble Basmala are people who have submitted to Allah, and Allah Almighty protects them under His mercy.

That's why in every talk, the Basmala; let's not speak before starting with it. Sir, when starting a task, the Basmala. In everything — at the start of the suras, the Basmala.

Why? In the meaning of the Basmala you say: in the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. You submit to Him and speak that way. Yes. Now here Allah Almighty, the disbelievers' disbelief to increase — let's say there are nineteen angels in Hell. "And what can nineteen angels do to a person?" he says. That is, to increase their disbelief. In this case the people of faith say: never mind nineteen, even if it were one, we couldn't overpower it, even if all gathered. Because Allah Almighty says: even if men and jinn gather, they cannot overpower Allah. If Allah has entrusted this realm to someone, that is, the people going inside — has entrusted them — even if those who've gone in are billions of people, they cannot overpower those there.

Like whom?

Tell me.

Yes. Like the angels who came to Lot's house.

With their gaze they struck those there completely blind. Yes. The angels Allah created, sir, if He has put them in charge — of those entering that Hell, however many billions of people there may be, none of them can overpower these. Yes. Beautiful, isn't it? Of course. All proven. With verses.

Now we read the correct one: To attend to the affairs of Hell We have assigned only angels. And their number We made only a means of trial for the disbelievers, so that those given the Book may learn thoroughly, and of those who believe it may increase the faith. That both those given the Book and the believers may not fall into doubt. That those in whose hearts is a disease and the disbelievers may say: what did Allah mean by this matter? Thus whoever wills it of Allah stays in error, and whoever wills reaches the right path. The armies of your Lord no one knows but themselves. And this is only an admonition for mankind. Our Lord's armies — what are they? Allah knows best.

To Pharaoh He sent an army of mosquitoes. One lame mosquito entered Pharaoh's nose; when it began to (?) with his brain, when it started, he had mallets struck on his head until it killed him. Yes.
