Translation

We created the heavens, the earth and the things between the two only with the Truth. That hour (the Day of Judgment) will certainly come! Now, (always) treat them with goodness.

Tafsir

Allah is the Creator of the heavens and the earth and all that is between them with truth. That is, He created with knowledge. He informs us that this universe has a lifespan and that it is in Allah's knowledge how long this lifespan will last and when it will end. Every soul will live the covenant it made with Allah when it came into the world and will return to Allah at the end. For now, treat them well. Do not grieve over their disbelief. You are a messenger. Surely the hour will come. The Hour will come and they will be reckoned with. Then We will seize them by the cuffs of their necks and throw them where they deserve to be.

What is said in the video

He says 'I kiss your hands', probably (?). May many kiss your hand. Pardon? Yes, my child. Surah Al-Hijr, verse 85: We created the heavens, the earth and what is between them only with truth.

That Hour will surely come. For now, treat them well, it says. Good treatment. There are many meanings here.

In the first meaning, that Allah Almighty created this universe with knowledge. In the second meaning, that Allah Almighty's essence is unseen and His word is truth.

In the third meaning, since all are Allah's servants and His mercy in the universe is for everyone, for that reason, without your proving what kind of person you are, your term in which you will die — according to that verse, so that everyone, within their own destiny, may prove themselves, treat them well, it says. In the fourth meaning, the beauty of Islam: submission to Allah and, toward Allah's servants, behaving compassionately. Yes.

this universe was created by our Lord from knowledge. According to the verse 'The heavens and the earth and what is between them have known the remembrance of your Lord' too, that there is no god other than Allah — by making all these creations of His remember His essence, Allah Almighty, sir, informs us that He is the absolute (?) and power of these worlds. Allah Almighty is the One who created the heavens and the earth and what is between them with truth. That is, He created with knowledge. With knowledge. It states that this universe has a lifespan and that how long this lifespan is, when it will end, is in Allah's knowledge.

When that Hour comes, it will cease to exist, it says. The knowledge of the Last Day — the knowledge of when the Last Day breaks — is among Allah's unseen knowledge. It is exclusive to Him. He has not made it known to us. Yes. Every soul that comes into the world will live out the covenant it gave to Allah, and in the end to Allah it will return. For now, treat them well. Do not grieve over their kufr. You are a conveyor of the message. Surely that time, the Hour, will come. That is, the hour when the Last Day breaks will come. Nothing on earth is everlasting. Surely, just as every created thing has an end, this universe too will have an end.

Allah Almighty, in order to send man to this (?) world, created the material realm, the visible worlds. So the true world is the world of the hereafter. The inner world, the essential world, is the world of the hereafter. What can we compare this to? Say I was born and raised in such-and-such a city. I left there, travelled, came and settled in such-and-such a city. I was born and raised in city A, my hometown is there, but I came to city B and settled. In the end I will surely go to city A, because that is my city. In city B I am not a temporary guesthouse. In this case, the world too is like this: as temporary travellers, so that we prove what kind of people we are, we were sent to this world, and finally, according to the verse where He says 'Every soul shall taste death, and to Me is your return', we will journey to the world of the hereafter.

We will journey to our true world. The Last Day will break, and their accounts will be settled. That is, no one on earth is left to roam free and without responsibility. Surely, within the command of the One who creates, the Creator, we are obliged to obey His commands. On all our necks there is such a responsibility, a yoke, that if a person had come to know Allah and His Messenger, he would feel that yoke on his own neck. But because people turned their backs on Allah and His Messenger, the desires of the nafs have, with fame, renown, pride and arrogance, blinded their eyes, plugged their ears, and had their hearts sealed. To such people Allah Almighty answers with the verse Hatemallâhu alâ kulûbihim ve alâ sem'ihim ve alâ ebsârihim ve lehüm azâbün azîm.

Yes. The Last Day will break, and their accounts will be settled. Then We will seize them by their forelocks and send them to the place they deserve.
