Translation

(Iblees) Satan said; “Oh My Lord! If so, give time for me until the day in which (everyone) will be resurrected.”

Tafsir

When Iblis was expelled and cursed, Satan said to Allah (swt): "Give me a respite until a day when people will be resurrected". The meaning here is that the Day of Resurrection will break and all the souls that will come to the world will be completed, and then the Day of Judgment will break, and Iblis asked Allah for a respite until then. In any case, there will be no human beings left to come to the world after the Day of Judgment. Iblis will have finished dealing with human beings and his life will have come to an end. After the Resurrection, there will be no living creatures left, all the worlds will be destroyed, and there will be an environment in which no creature or living being will be able to live. All the worlds will disappear into nothingness and Allah will resurrect and create again.

So when the Angel asks for a respite until the day of the resurrection of the creatures, it does not mean a respite until the day of reckoning, which is the creation of the creatures and the resurrection of the creatures in the Hereafter. He asks for a respite until the Day of Resurrection, that is to say, until the creation of all things, until the creation of all things.

What is said in the video

Surah Al-Hijr, verse 36: Iblis said: My Lord, then until the day beings are raised again, give me respite. When Iblis was cast out of the presence and cursed, Satan said to Allah Almighty: Give me respite until a day when people are raised again. The meaning here: the Hour breaking out, and all the spirits to come into the world having completed their coming, then the Hour breaking out; that is, Iblis too asking Allah for life until that time. That is, until the Day of Judgement. After the Day of Judgement no human will be left to come into the world anyway. Iblis's dealing with humanity will also have ended, the end of his life too will have come. After the Day of Judgement no living being will remain, all the worlds will perish, a state will arise in which no being or living thing lives.

All the worlds will pass into nonexistence, and there will be Allah Almighty's raising again, His creating anew. So the accursed one's request for respite until the day beings are raised again does not mean a respite until the time when, for people, beings are created again in the hereafter and the created are raised — that day of reckoning. Until the Day of Judgement — that is, until the created collide with one another and everything becomes ash (?) — it is asking for a respite until then. Yes.
