Translation

Do the ones who have sicknesses in their hearts, (and) who are in doubt, fear that Allah will commit oppression and injustice towards them? No, they themselves are the oppressors.

Tafsir

Allah (swt) lists the characteristics of these people in this verse (Those who have a disease in their hearts). Yes, these are people whose hearts are closed against the light of Allah. These are the people who betrayed Allah in the past when they made a covenant with Him and denied Him, even though they realized that they were created. Therefore, their hearts are full of accidents, that is, diseases. They are people who are full of hatred, resentment, distrust and suspicion of others. This heart disease is not a physical disease as we know it, but a spiritual disease.

(Those who are in doubt). Yes, they are in constant doubt. They are in doubt and disbelief, following their ego and following the steps of Shaytan. People who do not believe even though they hear God's commands, and in their disbelief they live with suspicions and are always in a state of doubt, unable to make up their minds about God.

(They fear that Allah and His Messenger will be unjust to them). Yes, they have these feelings. Since these people do not compromise with what they like in their own souls, the commands and prohibitions of Allah (swt) are too much for them. Therefore, they do not fulfill the commands of Allah. That is why they do not obey Allah and His Messenger in the face of Allah's commands that are contrary to their own lives, desires and wishes, because their worldly lives would be oppression to them.

(In this case, they do not listen to the commands of Allah and His Messenger because the commands of Allah and His Messenger would be an oppression to them in their own lives. They exchange the temporary life of this world for the Hereafter, buying the eternal torment of the Hereafter for a few hours of life in this world. It is these people who are the real oppressors of their own souls, for they have turned the abode of eternal bliss into the abode of eternal torment in Hell.

What is said in the video

Of Surah An-Nur, verse 50. A verse that is explained wrongly. Let's see, how? The wrong one, let's look at how it is.

60. The verse is here. No, verse 50. Is there a disease in their hearts? I'm reading the wrong one. (?). Is there a disease in their hearts? Or are they in doubt? Or is it that Allah and His Messenger will oppress and wrong them, that they fear? No. It is they themselves who are the real wrongdoers.

Nicely written, isn't it? Is there anything to it, then? We have marked this place. Now pay attention.

I'm reading this text once more.

Who will translate this for me? The correct one. Is there a disease in their hearts? Or are they in doubt? Or is it that Allah and His Messenger will oppress and wrong them, that they fear? No. It is they themselves who are the real wrongdoers.

Yes. Here, let us read the same thing in our own thing. Let's open it. Who will translate it? Is there anyone who can say the correct one?

Is there anyone among our children who can tell me? Are there any among those listening to me who can say it? Hodja, if you permit, I'll say what comes to my mind. One minute. Let me find this place here. Then you come and say it.

360 54 55 Yes. Come, let me see. Let me look. What are you saying? Hodja, are they afraid of Allah and His Messenger, (?). They have no faith in Allah and His Messenger, no belief, so that from them (?) such a (?) would be of value. It is not like that. Isn't it? Look, move over there, go forward. Look what it says. Is there a disease in their hearts? Or are they in doubt? Or are they afraid that Allah and His Messenger will oppress and wrong them? No. It is they themselves who are the real wrongdoers. This is a wrong rendering. Where is the mistake? Yes. The word 'no' seems to be wrong, Hodja. Look, pay attention, they describe Allah in such a way that Allah does not know: is there a disease in their hearts, He doesn't know and is asking, look, He doesn't know, that is; or are they in doubt, that He doesn't know either. Whereas look at the correct one: those with disease in their hearts, those who are in doubt, those with disease in their hearts, those who are in doubt, fear that Allah and His Messenger will oppress and wrong them.

This is the meaning of the verse. Shall we read the verse? In Arabic. Let's read it. 50, the verse. Yes.

This is 50. Yes. Bismillâhirrahmânirrahîm. E fî kulûbihim maradun em... what is this, e fî kulûbihim? E fî kulûbihim maradun. Yes. Is there a disease in their hearts? is how they translate it, Hodja? Yes. That there is a figure of speech anyway. That is, there is disease in their hearts. There is disease. It is something used for that (?). Of course. Look, what do we say? Those with disease in their hearts. That is, there is disease in their hearts. Those who have it. What does it say? We continue. Where is it? Here.

Emirtâbû em yehâfûne en yahîfû, en yahîfallâhu aleyhim ve rasûlüh. Are they afraid that Allah and His Messenger will wrong them? It describes their fears, Hodja. That figurative expression there is actually what they hide... So it is not like a question, the way they rendered it. Is there a disease in their hearts? The intent there, by allusion, is to show them what the problems inside them are... Yes. Whereas those with disease in their hearts, that is, those who are in doubt within themselves, fear that Allah and the Messenger will oppress and wrong them. What does it say next?

Well,

His Messenger. Surely it is they who are the wrongdoers themselves. Yes. Allah Almighty lists the traits of these people in this verse.

There is disease in their hearts. Yes, these are people whose hearts are closed to Allah's light.

There is a dot here. Let me cover that. Let me take the dot off there. Yes. There is disease in their hearts. Yes, these are people whose hearts are closed to Allah's light. These people, when they made the covenant with Allah Almighty in the beginning, betrayed Allah; despite realizing that they were created, they are people who denied Allah.

Despite realizing that they were created, they are people who denied Allah. Where? At the address Elestü bi-rabbiküm. How do we know? Allah Almighty, with the reason (?) He gave those souls, these said kalû, yes, they said, we were created. We were created. But the one who, as a part of his Lord, does not know he was created so, not knowing that our Lord took us as addressees of Himself, His Being, and gave us, as the noblest of creation, a part of His spirit, without using his reason, according to his own mind living in a world of fancy, and seeking a Lord created within his fancy, because of that he denies Allah there.

Otherwise he knows that he was created. Yes, so here we say, despite knowing that he was created. They betrayed Allah; despite realizing that they were created, they are people who denied Allah. For this reason there are ailments, that is, diseases, in their hearts. They are people in rancor, hatred, distrust of people and suspicions. This heart disease is not a bodily illness as we know it but a spiritual illness.

Or are they in doubt? Yes, they are constantly in doubt. In wondering and disbelief, they follow their nafs and Satan's footsteps; such people they are.

Though they hear Allah's commands, they do not believe, and in feelings of disbelief they live with suspicions and are always in doubt; they are people who about Allah cannot come to a decision. Yes. Here the text, like this, let's open it, the words have gone double here, M-M got stamped, D-D got stamped; let's correct it so that another time, in printing, it is not (?) like this.

Yes, they are constantly in doubt. In wondering and disbelief, they follow their nafs and Satan's footsteps; such are they. Though they hear Allah's commands, they do not believe, and in this disbelief they live with suspicions and are always in doubt; they are people who about Allah cannot come to a decision.

Yes.

Or that Allah and His Messenger will oppress and wrong them, they fear. Yes.

They are in these feelings. Because these people make no concessions from what their own selfish states enjoy, the commands and prohibitions of Allah Almighty weigh heavily on them. Therefore they do not carry out Allah's commands. That is why, in the face of Allah's commands that run counter to their lives, their desires and wishes, since their worldly lives would be oppression to them, they do not obey Allah and His Messenger. Because these are people who do not believe in resurrection after death either.

In this

situation these do not obey Allah and His Messenger; the real wrongdoers are they themselves, it says. Well, tell me, here who is called the real wrongdoer? Who will tell me this? Wronging your own self, knowing, you cannot deny Allah. That is the real wrongdoer. What if you wrong me? One day I'll pass on and be gone. But in the Hereafter you, that wrongdoer, from that body, from your soul, will eternally suffer torment. In this case, since the commands of Allah and the Messenger in their own lives would be oppression to them, they do not listen to the commands of Allah and the Messenger. Trading the fleeting life of the world with the Hereafter, for a few hours of life in the world they buy the eternal torment of the Hereafter.

So these people, since they turned the face of eternal bliss into the face of eternal torment, Hell, into oppression in Hell, are, against their own selves, the real wrongdoing ones. Yes.
