Yunus 97: Even if all miracles came and even if they see the severe punishment, they will not believe.

A. Metin Saruhan · 3 November 2016 · Yunus

Translation

Even if all miracles came and even if they see the severe punishment, they will not believe.

Tafsir

Even if Allah (swt) shows all the miracles about these disbelieving people and they have not a single word to say to Allah (swt) on earth, "If only you had made this and that appear, we would have worshipped you," even if they see the torment of hell in the Hereafter, they will still not believe in Allah (swt). As we have explained in previous lessons, when they see the torment of hell and their resurrection, they believe that there is an Allah. However, they cannot believe that He is the real Allah, the One who has dragged them into the fire and into a painful agony. They wait for the Allah whom their own minds have made comprehensible. With this thought, they have made these characters work on themselves by their own desire and will. For eternity, they cannot get rid of this thought and return to Allah who created them. In this respect, they will spend eternity in hell.

What is said in the video

Again there is a wrongly interpreted verse; after this, verse 97 was also interpreted wrongly. What does it say? Even if all the miracles came, they will not believe until they see the painful punishment, it says. Now, this interpretation, an interpretation like this — I am drawing your attention, pay attention. Even if all the miracles came, until they see the painful punishment they will not believe. That is, they will have believed in the hereafter. Because they will not believe until they see a painful punishment. What does that mean? After seeing it they will believe. Allah Almighty says in His verse: if only they had known Me here.

If only they had known here. Well, when these see the punishment in Hell, if their faith became perfect or they believed, is Allah a tormenting oppressor, to leave them there?

Look, pay close attention. The sinners among Muslims will also enter Hell. They will suffer for their sin, but there their faith will become perfect. What will they say? For the deeds I did, this punishment Allah Almighty has given me is even too little for me, they will say. Little. And Allah Almighty says: O My servant, your faith has become perfect, come out of there. He takes them out of there. (?) Well, is it fitting now to interpret it this way? There, they will not believe until they see a painful punishment. That is, in the end they will have believed, and Allah Almighty, despite their believing, will leave them in Hell, leave them in torment.

Can you ascribe such oppression to Allah, ascribe a crime to Him, and describe Allah like this?

All the verses are copies of each other. It was interpreted this way. Well, can you now call these scholars who say they know Arabic? Or can you say these are knowledgeable in the science of the Quran? Well, to these: when a person raised with inner knowledge finds and exposes your mistakes in outward knowledge — against that: there is no inner knowledge, Allah Almighty, after the Prophet (peace be upon him), in no way raised anyone, there is no unlettered person He raised — can you say that? But you say it. You say it. Against seeing the truth before you, you say it.

And in this way you lead people onto false and wrong paths. Even if all the miracles came, even if they saw the painful punishment, they will not believe. Look, this is the correct meaning of the verse. What is it? Even if all the miracles came, even if they saw the painful punishment, they will not believe. Because they gave their covenant that way; 'unless We will, you cannot will' — against that verse, if you interpret that verse this way, it also contradicts this verse. It contradicts these too. In this way you interpret the Quran in contradictions, so that, in contradictions, it contradicts this verse: If this were a human fabrication, you would find in it many words that do not agree with each other. You contradict that verse.

Is this what you know now? Yes.

By my telling you this, never think — I always say it again — don't say: this man is praising himself. Never, Allah forbid. I am (?) of such things. I explain for Allah. For Allah. I explain in order to tell the truth. I explain to remove falsehoods from the religion. Because Allah Almighty will keep His religion going until the Day of Judgment. (?) In this case, in this case, about me, as I said a moment ago, let nothing at all come to your mind like 'this man is praising himself'. But, as I always say, performing my duty is not my obligation. I am charged with a duty. I was raised by the Lord, to remove falsehoods from the religion.

I have an inner knowledge. I have a Sufi and spiritual knowledge, knowledge of the Quran. In this case, in this case, whatever you say, whether outward or inner, I answer you by basing it on verses, in the light of the verses. From this, surely, you need to grasp something. Yes.

Even if all the miracles came, even if they saw the painful punishment, they will not believe. After interpreting this verse too, we will end our lesson. Our daughter Selim will, God willing, remind us of verse 98 in our next lesson. About these deniers: even if Allah Almighty showed all the miracles — and He does show them; the greatest miracle, I think, is the Prophet's splitting of the moon, the moon turning (?), the greatest miracle.

Raising the dead, bringing them back to life and making them speak. Wolves, birds and trees speaking. Sir,

the yellow camel coming out of the rock. These are great miracles.

Moses forgiving the sorcerers, against them.

However many miracles come, they still do not believe. Why? Because their covenants are like that, their characters are like that, they had their destinies written that way. Even if all the miracles came, even if they saw the painful punishment, they will not believe. About these deniers: even if Allah Almighty showed all the miracles and the deniers on earth, to Allah Almighty, 'had You made this appear like that, we would have worshipped You' — even if they had not a single such word left to say, these people, even if they saw the painful punishment in Hell in the hereafter, would still not believe in Allah.

Yes.

Because He says: if only they had known Me. If only they had known Me. Where? In the hereafter. They put this in parentheses as well. 'Beforehand,' they say. Does that verse in parentheses ever come to (?)? If only they had known Me. If only they had known Me. That is, when they see this punishment, when they see this Great Tribunal, when they see the resurrection here, if only they believed. If only their faith had become perfect. He says: if only they had known Me. When (?) beforehand, in his covenant, in the word Allah Almighty gave him, that is, in the characters, it becomes a piece of news; a news he did not know. If only they had known Me, that is.

That is, beforehand. Does reason and logic accept this? They have always interpreted the verses backwards, backwards.

There is no knowledge for them to know. No knowledge. Yes. As in the previous (?) we explained, when they see the punishment of Hell and that they have been resurrected, they believe that there is an Allah. But that the true Allah who drags them into the fire and a painful agony is that One, they do not believe.

They wait for the Allah that their own minds encompass. With this thought, by their own wishes and desires, these have had these characters put to work in themselves.

Forever, (?) from this thought, they cannot see the true Allah who created them. Therefore they remain in Hell eternally.
