Al-Insan 2: It is a fact that; We created human from a mixed semen. We gave hearing and vision to test the person (so, the person’s character shall be revealed to own self).

Explanation
The misinterpretation
The truth is that We created man from a mixed population (the offspring of male and female). We made him hear and see so that we might test him.
The right translation
It is a fact that; We created human from a mixed semen. We gave hearing and vision to test the person (so, the person’s character shall be revealed to own self).
Explanation
This is the wrong place in this verse: We made him hear and see, that We might test him. Verily: And We made him hear and see so that he might be tested (to test him as to what kind of a man he is).
When they open this verse by saying that We have made him hear and see so that we may test him, it is as if our Lord does not know what kind of a person he is, but by sending him to the world, He will find out what kind of a person he is as a result of the test. When the verses are twisted in this way, it contradicts our Lord's verse that there is not a single living creature that will come until the Day of Resurrection that we do not know what it will do. The correct opening of the verse is as follows: "And We made him hear and see, that he might be tested (to test him as to what kind of a man he is)."
What is said in the video
We have come to the surah. There aren't many mistakes around here.
In Surah Al-Insan, in the second verse, there is a mistake. The truth is that We created man from a mixed drop, from the seed of man and woman, it says. 'That We might test him, We made him hearing and seeing,' it says. He always imagines Allah like you and me, he makes Him use His mind only as far as your mind goes, Allah, and that He will test us, not knowing what we will do; that He created us, sir, in order to test us. That's what he says. 'The truth is that We created man from a mixed drop, from the seed of man and woman; that We might test him, We made him hearing and seeing,' he says. Whereas when man made his covenant with Allah Almighty by his own wish and desire, which he doesn't know anyway, in Surah Al-A'raf, verse 172, they have settled the matter right there anyway; and when you open that up, he calls you, sir, a fatalist. Look, for you to call me a fatalist, I would have to tell you what my destiny is a moment from now.
Brother, you cannot say what lies in your destiny a moment later. But you can tell of your covenant with Allah Almighty. So what do you say? I know it, so I say it. What do you know? Look, I know my covenant, my covenant.
Whatever my feelings are, He knows those feelings exactly. Because the spirit (?). A part of Him. Now, when you analyse water, what comes out? Two hydrogens and one oxygen, right? It becomes water. Their compound is water. And what is the composition of the spirit? What is it made of? Allah knows. He knows what state that spirit is in. He knows us. Accordingly He works our wishes and desires into us, within our own will, as characters. Now, Allah, who works my will into me just as it is, removed His own will from me and my will... if He Himself used His will on me, then what does He want from me if He makes me do evil?
So people reckon Allah like their own minds, and as if talking to Allah face to face like this, they take the verse lightly and render these things like this. Poor people. They don't even want to learn. And when you explain it like this, they call you deviant. Because Allah Almighty describes this (?) so beautifully. 'They try to throw it over the truth,' He says. This (?). 'But the truth has come and falsehood has vanished,' He says. Because the verses confirm one another. But you make the verses contradict one another. Prove it. Yes. Whereas the correct one: the truth is that the truth is that We created man from a mixed drop, from the seed of man and woman; to make him a witness against himself of what kind of person he is, to be tested, We made him hearing and seeing. That he be tested: 'Did you think you would die without proving what kind of person you are in this world?' Isn't that verse the proof of this?
Isn't it? All of them. Yes. That's why they have rendered the verses all wrong, all crooked. People are filled with superstitions, sir (?).
And when you tell the truth, it clashes with the superstition. 'This man is telling lies and errors,' they say. Because he has nothing behind him (?). Because he knows nothing of the verses.
If he only knew the verses a little... We read novels. We read other books. We go through the books of Ahmet and Mehmet, sir. But we never read our own Book. And even if we read it, we don't reflect on it. Someone wrote: Allah will put whom He wills into Paradise and whom He wills into Hell. So is Allah a tyrant? He doesn't know what will is here, what will is, he doesn't know. That there are two wills: the universal will, Allah creates what He intends. The partial will: He programmed man according to man's own wishes and doings. They know nothing of these. And then people know the words others made up very well, and because it suits them, they learned it that way.
And to the one who tells the truth, they say: you are deviant.
