Al-Baqarah 77: Do they not know that Allah knows it all; whatever they hide or they reveal?

We come to verse 77. Do they not know that Allah knows what they conceal and what they do openly? Look how beautifully He says it now: He knows all of it. He sees His verses well, one after another. You know this much, and can you not grasp it? That Allah Almighty knows what you conceal and knows what you reveal. What did we say a moment ago? At the address of Alastu bi-Rabbikum, Allah, who gave you the will of your wishes and works as your destiny. With your coming to an unseen world, although you do not know what is in your destiny one second later, if my Lord knows what all living beings that will come until the Day of Judgment will do, can you not know that you can hide nothing from Him?

So what does this show, what does this show you? What does it show? It shows your resentment towards Allah and that you will never obey Him, that you only live your own will within your own wishes and desires. And as a person who expects how Allah, as you imagine Him, will treat you, and expects Him to behave that way, because you imagine your Lord like that, your Lord's word that goes against your nafs, never heeding it, wretched people who go on with their lives, wretches who forget, sir, that this is their state. Do they not know that Allah knows what they conceal and what they reveal? Of course He knows.

Out of their stubbornness they do not stop opposing the commands of Allah.

What is their stubbornness? The first foundation, the first part of their stubbornness is living their worldly wishes and desires, their nafs-driven feelings, and within this life, if the commands of Allah are outside their wishes and desires, never obeying them.

Yes. When they made the covenant with Allah Almighty, let us both read it and also correct some excesses. Yes. When they made the covenant, they had their own wishes and desires written as their destiny, their wishes and desires. Although Allah Almighty gives people examples and despite so many warnings, those who rebel against Allah cannot give up without playing out the wishes and desires in their destinies. What did they do? What did they do? Whatever they wanted, Allah Almighty, just like the characters in a phone or a computer, as many characters as there are, He processed them, and within those characters people will again desire their own wishes and desires in the world with their own partial will.

And Allah Almighty will create what they desire as Lord, that is, as Creator; He will create the means. And by carrying out these deeds they will prove what kind of person they are.

For this reason, although Allah Almighty gives all the warnings in the world of possession, to whom? To people, to all people, and to these too; although He gives all the warnings, a warning to them, a warning to all people. So to the generations after them, to the generations that will come until the Day of Judgment, a warning from the verses. Yes. Whatever a person's destiny and nature are, he cannot change them. And he completes his life according to the covenant he gave.

After that person has proved to Allah what kind of person he is, he passes from the world to the Hereafter.
