Translation

There are some among them who believe in it (the Qur’an), and there are some who don’t believe in it. Your Lord best knows the mischievous ones.

Tafsir

Among non-Muslims there are some who believe that the Qur'an is the word of Allah. They also believe that Islam is the true religion. With such a belief, he chooses and accepts Islam. But he cannot declare that he is an Islamist because he is afraid of his tribe and his family circle.

And there are some among them who do not believe that the Qur'an is the truth and a Book sent by Allah. These are the ones I have described above (hatamAllah 'u 'Ala kulubihim wa 'Ala semihim wa 'Ala ebsarihim ğışaveh wa lahum azabun azim) These are the people who are the recipients of this verse. They will not be guided for eternity. And they are the people who correspond to Allah's verse in which He says, "These were the disbelievers and His word came out as truth.

(Allah knows best the mischief-makers) because Allah knows best what such people will do, how they will take sides against the Deen of Islam, how they will not rest on the earth against those who say Allah, and how they will create mischief on the earth by devising insidious plans.

What is said in the video

Yes, Surah Yunus, verse 40: among them are some who believe in it, that is, in the Quran, and among them are some who do not believe in it; your Lord knows best the corrupters, it says. Of course, as Allah Almighty does, no created being can know anything in the best way; none can. When people made the covenant: Bismillahirrahmanirrahim, We made a covenant with the children of Adam, with those who would come forth from their offspring. We said: We are your Lord. When He said this, as a result of the covenant, Allah Almighty, who wrote everyone's wishes, desires and aims for them as their destiny, and who, in writing those destinies, worked them into them, into those souls, as characters: Allah Almighty. Man, in this worldly life, does not know what his destiny holds a moment later, while He knows, until the Day of Judgment, what every living being to come will do on earth: Allah Almighty.

Allah Almighty, who knows the secrets of hearts. Of course He knows His creatures best, and He knows the corrupters best too. Yes.

Among non-Muslims there are some who hold that the Quran is the word of Allah; they believe it, they also believe that the religion of Islam is the true religion, and with such a belief they choose and accept Islam. But they cannot come out in the open among their people. Because they know that if they are cast out by their people, their livelihood will also come to an end. So they hide, they hide among them. Yes.

But because he is wary of his people and his family circle, he cannot declare himself, saying I am a Muslim. And beyond these there are some who do not believe that the Quran is the truth, a book sent by Allah. These are the ones I described above. Hatemallâhu alâ kulûbihim ve alâ sem'ihim ve alâ ebsârihim gışâveh ve lehüm azâbün azîm. They are the people that verse refers to.

They will never come to the right path. Why not? Now if you take a pear tree's or an apple tree's apple seed, you can't grow a pear from it; an apple will come out. These too: whatever covenant they gave to Allah Almighty, Allah Almighty, in service of their covenant, gave them those characters, and they are not ones who will ever turn back. Then why do we warn people? Then why do we tell them? When you say, why do you tire yourself, Hodja: well, Allah Almighty closed the place where we gave that covenant. That is, at Kalu Bela, at the address Elestü bi rabbiküm, Allah Almighty closed off that realm where we made the covenant with Him.

Although that realm is in our memory, although we know it, just as with a password on a computer, when we can't enter that password and cannot open the written content there, He has encrypted us too, and in this realm started us from zero. Does it never open, Hodja? It does. How will it open? If you rise from nafs al-ammara to nafs al-lawwama, from nafs al-lawwama to nafs al-mulhima, from nafs al-mulhima to nafs al-mutmainna, from nafs al-mutmainna to nafs al-radiya, from nafs al-radiya to nafs al-mardiyya, if you reform your nafs, for Allah's sake it removes from your heart everything other than Him.

If you put Allah's light into your heart, back again (?), you see them. As long as you can't do this, even if you worship night and day like (?), you become the person this hadith describes. If the worship you do does not keep you from evil, it is a burden to you, it says. A bucket with a hole in the bottom. You do your worship from the top, and keep doing evil from the bottom. And then you say, I worship. Why? You say, I get nowhere. Unable to escape the arrogance of your own nafs, you talk back and forth like this. Yes.

These too, because they denied Allah back in the first barzakh, and because their wishes and desires were written for them as character, can never return to the truth. They don't want to understand that the Quran is the truth.

These are the ones described by what I mentioned above, the verse that says so; they are the people that verse refers to.

They will never come to the path, and they are the people of the verse in which Allah says: the word 'these are disbelievers' has come true.

As Allah's truth: these are disbelievers. He said. In many verses they all confirm one another anyway. My beloved, do not mind their denying you. In their time they betrayed Me too, it says. Where is this? The betrayal in their time was at the address Elestü bi rabbiküm. Those who denied Allah Almighty, waited for the Lord of their imagination, and denied the One who created them.

They denied Me too, called Me a liar, it says. Yes. Do not mind their denying you, it says. Don't mind it. In that case, Allah Almighty again says of them: their hearts are scattered and corrupt, it says. Scattered. And they are lying disbelievers, it says. Lying disbelievers. Is there not a single one among them who tells the truth? I swear by Allah, there is not one who tells the truth. Why? From one who, in the first barzakh, denied his own Creator as a liar, that is, falsely denied Allah, do you expect a true word? Let him say true things as much as he likes. At the root he is a liar, at the root.

In denying Allah. At the root they are liars. You can't call him truthful. You cannot call truthful those whom Allah Almighty calls liars. What does Allah Almighty say? They are lying disbelievers, it says. Why does He say it? Because Allah Almighty created them, because He created all beings, and those created people deny their Creator, they are lying there. They know they were created by a Lord. With the intellect in the soul that we call aklı maad. They know they were created by a Lord. In that case these people, even though the Lord they awaited in their imagination did not appear, even though Allah who created them says, I created you, persist stubbornly in their denial, within their wishes and desires, they had their aims written for them as destiny.

These are lying disbelievers at the root. That is why Allah has proved His word that they are disbelievers. Yes. And they are the people of the verse in which Allah says the word 'these are disbelievers' has come true. Allah knows the corrupters best. Because Allah knows best what such people will do, how they will take a stand against the religion of Islam, how they will not leave in peace on earth those who say Allah, and how, secretly preparing plans, they will stir up strife on earth.
