Translation

If Allah’s blessings and mercy were not upon you in the worldly life and in the Hereafter, a great calamity would surely have come upon you for this (accusation) that you delved into.

Tafsir

Allah's forgiveness and forgiveness is abundant. Allah sustains this universe for the sake of those who say Allah. Therefore, if it were not for the mercy of Allah (swt) upon you, a great punishment would surely come upon you for the ugly slander you have committed against such a Prophet and his innocent and pure wife, the mother of mankind, Hazrat Aisha. He says that the destruction that befell the other destroyed tribes would have befallen you too.

But since the Ummah of Muhammad is Allah's most beloved Ummah, it is a blessing and mercy of Allah for us Muslims to be forgiven for the sake of this Ummah's devotion to Allah (swt), their asking Allah (swt) for forgiveness, knowing their helplessness, helping Allah's religion, and more than that, being the Ummah of Prophet Muhammad (s.a.w.), for whose sake He created the worlds.

For the sake of Muslims, the worlds are standing. Because our Prophet (PBUH) is a witness to the Prophets, and his ummah, the Muslims, will be witnesses to other ummahs. In this respect, this universe comes to life for the sake of Muslims, those who say Allah through the religion of Islam.

What is said in the video

We have come to verse 14 of Surah An-Nur.

Had it not been for Allah's grace and mercy upon you in this world and the Hereafter,

a great punishment would surely have struck you for this slander you plunged into. In this world too, in this world too, it says, a great punishment would surely have struck. Allah Almighty's pardon and forgiveness are abundant. Allah Almighty keeps this universe standing for the sake of those who say Allah. In this respect, had Allah Almighty's mercy not been upon, upon you, then for what they did to such a Prophet and this Prophet's innocent and pure wife, the mother of people, our mother Aisha, the ugly slander, a great punishment would surely have struck you. The destructions that befell the other peoples who were destroyed would befall you too, He declares. But because the Ummah of Muhammad is a community Allah loves most, because of this Ummah's devotion to Allah Almighty, their asking Allah Almighty for pardon and forgiveness, their knowing their helplessness, their helping Allah's religion, and beyond that, for whose sake He created the worlds, the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), because they are his Ummah, this Ummah's devotion to Allah Almighty, their asking Allah Almighty for pardon and forgiveness, their knowing their helplessness, their helping Allah's religion, and beyond that, for whose sake He created the worlds, the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), because they are his Ummah, their being forgiven for his sake.

It is a grace and mercy of Allah to us Muslims. And for the sake of the Muslims, the worlds are kept standing. Because the Prophet (peace be upon him) is a witness over the prophets, his Ummah, the Muslims, will come as witnesses over the other communities. In this respect, this universe, for the sake of the Muslims, that is, of those who say Allah through the religion of Islam, is being created. Yes.
