Translation

Only by the mercy of your Lord (The Qur’an remains). Verily, Allah’s blessings upon you are great.

Tafsir

Allah (swt) has sent the Holy Qur'an as a mercy to mankind, to shed light before them and teach them what they do not know, which will last until the Day of Judgment. In order for the Holy Qur'an to last, Allah (swt) has prepared its program. No force will be able to destroy the religion of Islam and abolish the Holy Qur'an until the end of the world, the Day of Judgment. This is because the favor of Allah (swt) on the Prophet (s.a.w.) is very great. He created the Prophet (pbuh) before the worlds and made him the addressee of His Essence. He willed that His Essence should be known through him. He created the universe from his light and the Prophets from his soul, and the souls of their people from the souls of those Prophets. Indirectly, the whole human world is created from the soul of the Prophet (SAW). In this respect, all Prophets will be witnesses to their people on that day of reckoning. Our Prophet (PBUH) will also bear witness to the Prophets about the truthfulness of all the Prophets. This indirectly shows that he will be a witness against all people. In this respect, Allah (swt) has made the Prophet Muhammad (s.a.w.) alive. He has tasted death and is alive. For the sake of the Holy Prophet (PBUH), Allah (swt) has made the Holy Qur'an lasting to shed light before the people.

What is said in the video

Surah Al-Isra, verse 87: we have come to this verse. Only by the mercy of your Lord has the Quran remained enduring. For His kindness toward you is very great. All the verses that have been opened up — how do they always support one another! When others say, like, He threatened him, He did this or that — well, doesn't that contradict this? He says His kindness is very great. Look, He says His kindness toward you is very great. Yes. Why is it very great? How beautiful is the hadith of the Prophet: My Lord educated me. And how beautifully He educated me, he says. How beautifully He educated me. Also, according to the verse "he does not speak idly", "my soul in the hand of power (?) — I swear", he says.

Yes, so Allah Almighty here too gives him such value: only by the mercy of your Lord has the Quran remained enduring. For His kindness toward you is very great. For these people created as a part of your spirit, for your sake, We will keep the Quran enduring until the Day of Judgment. So that people do not say: You sent them prophets, You sent them books; why did You remove these books from before us — so that they do not say this, Allah Almighty will keep the Holy Quran enduring until the Day of Judgment. In that case, Allah, who is free of any deficient attribute — so that people do not say: why did You send them the Quran, verses, prophets, (?), but not send them to us — so that they do not say this, Allah, free of any deficient attribute, with this verse signifies that the Quran will remain until the Day of Judgment: They thought they would extinguish Allah's light with the blowing of their mouths.

Allah will complete His light until the Day of Judgment, He says. Yes, how beautifully the verses confirm one another. The verses are not as people open them up according to their own whims.

Allah Almighty, before those of people who receive mercy, to be heard, and what they do not know to teach them, His Holy Quran, which will endure until the Day of Judgment, out of His mercy to the worlds He has sent. For the Holy Quran to endure, Allah Almighty has prepared His program. No power, until the end of the world — until the Day of Judgment, which is the end — will be able to destroy the religion of Islam or to remove the Holy Quran; they will not be capable of it. Because Allah Almighty's kindness toward the Prophet (peace be upon him) is very great. Before the worlds, by creating the Prophet (peace be upon him) — here I had written a letter before it; I'll make it "first".

Yes. By creating the Prophet (peace be upon him) first, He made him the addressee of His essence. He willed that His essence be known through him. From his light He created the universe, from his spirit the prophets, and from those prophets' spirits the spirits of their peoples. Indirectly, the whole world of mankind, from the Prophet (peace be upon him) — from his spirit, has been created. Therefore, all the prophets will bear witness for their peoples on that Day of Reckoning. And the Prophet (peace be upon him), about the state of all the prophets, will bear witness for the prophets. This shows that, indirectly, he will be a witness over all people.

For this reason too, Allah Almighty has made the Beloved of the Almighty, the Seal of the Prophets, Hazrat Muhammad (peace be upon him), alive. He tasted death and is alive. Therefore, for the sake of the Prophet (peace be upon him), Allah Almighty has made enduring His Holy Quran, which holds a light before people.

Yes.
