Translation

And if they argue with you, say; “Allah knows very well, all that you do!”

Tafsir

O Messenger! If people of the People of the Book or not, the disbelievers, the polytheists, those who disbelieve in Allah and the Hereafter, should they oppose you and fight with you, say to them, 'Allah is well aware of what you do. Allah is the One Who, in the past, in Kalu Bela, when He made a covenant with mankind, gave them their will as their destiny. In this respect, Allah is the One who knows what people will do and say and what will pass through their hearts until the Day of Resurrection. If Allah were ignorant of His creation, the universe would be a coincidence. Everything would be turned upside down and there would be no order in this universe. However, nothing in the universe is a coincidence.

Therefore, O Messenger of Allah! Tell them that Allah is well aware of what you do and knows you well.

What is said in the video

Surah Al-Hajj, verse 68 – we have come to it.

If they get into argument and dispute with you,

say: Allah knows very well what you do.

That is, as long as you tell the truth, if they get into argument and quarrel with you, if, following every stubborn devil, they set out to throw falsehood over the truth,

if they act with prejudice, say: Allah knows what we do. That is, with what aim you speak, and with what aim I speak, your Lord knows. Tomor- tomorrow, on the Day of Judgment, what we have said will come before us. And for that insinuating talk of yours, saying "Islam's" and for the harm you did to Islam, the burden of your sin in return you will bear, He says. The burden of your sin. Yes.

My Beloved, people who are of the People of the Book or not, deniers, polytheists, those who reject Allah and the Hereafter – if they stand against you and struggle with you, say to them: Allah knows very well what you do. Allah, when He made the covenant with people in the beginning, at Qalu Bala, their wishes to their destinies, destinies – He is the One who gave them to them as destiny. For this reason Allah – what the people to come until the Day of Judgment will do and what they will say, what will pass through their hearts – is the One who knows. If Allah were unaware of His creatures, the universe would be left to chance. Everything would be turned upside down.

There would be no order left in this universe. Whereas nothing in the universe is a coincidence. For this reason, O my Beloved, say to these people: Allah is aware of what you do and knows you very well, He says. He knows us very well. A person can deceive people with his tongue.

But he cannot deceive Allah. Yes. Because Allah knows the secrets of our hearts. what does this mean, the secret of the heart it goes all the way back to the covenant: with you, when We made the covenant, the wish and desire passing through your hearts, your will, We know very well, it says. Accordingly, We, according to those wishes and desires of yours, placed characters in you. Even though you are not aware of the situation there, We know it better than you do. What lies hidden in the remotest corner of your heart, of which you are not aware, We are aware of. We know this, it says.

Does He know? He knows. By Allah, I am a witness.

With my feelings there, when I made the covenant – I look at my feeling here (?). If He doesn't know me, whom will He know?

If He knows me like this, if I know myself this well, that (?) (?). My feelings here are the same as well. I am a grandson of Ali. I am a grandson of the Prophet (peace be upon him). What does Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) say? I know the realm of the Hereafter as I know today, he says. By Allah, I too know it as I know today. I do not worship a Lord I have not seen, he says. I am living these things. And I am telling you these feelings of mine. These are not words to be solved with Arabic. Yes.

Yes.
