Translation

They are the ones who adopted deities other than Allah. They will know soon (who is truthful).

Tafsir

Those who turn their backs on the commands of Allah and do not believe in the Qur'an and the Prophet will soon know who is righteous and who is on the straight path. A life that seems long to man is actually a deception of the nafs. According to the Qur'anic verse that says that a thousand years of this world is like a day of the Hereafter, human life is very short in this world. In this case, the lifespan of a human being in this world does not exceed one or two hours compared to the Hereafter.

So when the Day of Reckoning comes soon, that is, when the Day of Resurrection breaks with their deaths, and then they will be resurrected with a new resurrection, and they will be gathered before Allah, then they will see who were on the straight path. There their regrets will not avail them.

What is said in the video

(?) if you ask, we will have completed our time this way. Surah Al-Hijr, verse 96: They are the ones who, along with Allah, take another god. They will soon know who is right, it says.

Those who rebel against Allah, who associate partners with Allah, who take gods along with Allah. And in the verse Allah Almighty: they will not see their Lord. That verse supports this too anyway. All the verses support one another anyway. They will not see their Lord, but people unaware of the verses... I say it again. Those people who have memorized the Quran or who know Arabic are unaware of its verses. Knowledge of the Quran is something else. A person raised by Allah Himself brings out the falsehoods only in this way. The falsehoods. What does it say? They will soon know. They took another god along with Allah.

They will soon know who is right. It said 'soon'. A thousand years of this world are like one day of the hereafter. Like one day in the hereafter. When it says they will soon know, those who associate partners with Allah, according to the verse that says every soul will taste death and your return is to Me, will at the Great Tribunal give account. They will give account. According to this verse, they will soon know. They will not see their Lord. Of this they say: in the hereafter people will be received blind and sightless. Well, if in the hereafter man is gathered blind and sightless, sir, in Surah Saba', in verse two hundred, just the twelfth verse, hand me the Quran.

Look what it says now.

Like that. In this whole place couldn't you find a Quran? There is, there is.

Yes.

Surah As-Sajdah, Surah As-Sajdah, not Saba', Surah As-Sajdah, the 12th verse, the twelfth verse, look what it says: those sinners, before their Lord, will hang their heads low, hang their heads low; where is it? Before their Lord hanging their heads: Our Lord, we have seen, we have heard, now send us back to the world so that we may do good deeds, now we firmly believe; if only you could see the time they will say this, it says. Well, according to the verse 'they will not see their Lord', this 12th verse of Surah As-Sajdah, where did you hide it?

Weren't you a scholar? Where did you hide this? Plain, explicit. When those sinners hang their heads before their Lord: Our Lord, we have seen. Look, (?): we have seen. We have heard. Now send us back to the world so that we may do good deeds. Now we firmly believe; if only you could see the time they will say this.

In that case. Well then, Hodja, what does 'they will not see their Lord' mean? There is no god besides Allah for them to see the Lord they imagined, the one they awaited. It symbolizes tawhid, tawhid. It symbolizes La ilahe illallah. The verse 'they will not see their Lord'. Yes.

And what does it say in verse 13? Had We willed, had We willed, We would surely have given everyone their guidance. You know, 'unless We will, you cannot will', we now throw out that word; this time: had We willed, We would surely have given everyone their guidance, it says. That is, without sending you to the world at all, We would have sent you where you belong, to paradise. But 'I will fill hell with some of both jinn and men', a firm word has gone out from Me, it says. That is, despite My saying I am your Lord, despite giving you a part of My spirit and creating you as the noblest of creation, despite making you addressees of My essence, despite creating you honoured above the worlds, if you, Me, deny Me, then of course I too, it says, will send you to the place you deserve, it says.

Yes.

On that day We will say to them, it says: Now taste the penalty for forgetting the meeting of this day of yours. Indeed, We too have forgotten you. Because of what you did, taste the eternal punishment, they will be told, it says. Yes. May Allah protect us.

To them: they took another god along with Allah. They will soon know who is right. And we say: we are explaining the truth to you. If I am telling something wrong, warn me. Invite me to the truth. If I am telling what is right, come to the truth. To whom am I saying this? To the scholars, the ulama; I call this out to the world. To the world. To the world. Do not explain the verses by setting verses against verses. Explain the verses by confirming the verses. In that case, if I am explaining rightly and you are explaining wrongly, we will both soon see.

In the hereafter, at that Great Tribunal, before our Lord, you too will see, and I will see. Yes.

Those who turn their backs on Allah's command, who do not believe in the Quran and the Prophet, will soon know who is right and which one is going on the straight path. A life that seems long to man. The accursed one makes life seem long to man. Ooh, there's lots more life left. As if he held a guarantee in his hand. Ooh, must one pray all the time? All the time. He makes this look like a mountain on your back. Like a mountain. Allah Almighty too, since He knows what state man is in, says in His verse the following. Every time, it says. When you rise to prayer, it says, perhaps laziness comes, but those who keep up the prayer, in keeping it up there is good, it says.

There is good in prayer. And to righteous servants, it says, rising to prayer gives joy. It does not affect them. So those who turn their backs on Allah's commands, who do not believe in the Quran and the Prophet, will soon know who is right and which one is going on the straight path. A life that seems long to man is actually his nafs, the nafs deceiving man. According to the verse that says a thousand years of this world are like one day of the hereafter, man's life in this world is very short. In that case, man's lifetime in worldly life, compared to the hereafter, lasts an hour or two.

So, soon, that is, with their deaths, the onset of the Resurrection, then with a new raising being raised, when that true Day of Reckoning comes, when everyone is gathered in Allah's presence, then they will see who was (?). There, their regret will be of no use. Yes.

Now no one can deny this. Allah Almighty created our (?), Allah Almighty. How do you know, Hodja? Well, in Surah Al-A'raf, verse 172, it says We made a covenant with you; from the zuhur of the children of Adam, with those who would emerge from their offspring We made a covenant, it says. What does this mean? Where did we make the covenant? In the realm of Lahut He created our spirits. We made a covenant with Allah Almighty. I am not saying it, Allah is telling me. In that case, after the covenant we were taken up to the dergah. How do you know, Hodja? Well, thousands of years have passed from our father Adam until now, haven't they?

Thousands of years have passed. So where were we these thousands of years? Since we know (?). So these thousands of years he speaks of, perhaps even before the world was founded, first, if you said millions of years, we cannot know that. We stayed in the barzakh. We stayed in the barzakh. And when the time came, we came to the world within this time. Do you know how long you stayed, how long you stayed? It's nothing. So when, at the moment of death, he is taken back up to the barzakh, and the body too remains in the earth and vanishes in the graveyard, when that undying cell finds life, sir, through the sea of secrets of the sixth layer, when again from the earth like grass we sprout, when you come into My presence with a driver, it says, when with the spirit it is paired, when you come face to face, you will ask one another: under the earth how long did we lie? Some of you, it says, a day; the wisest of you, we lay less than a day, you will say, it says.

So Allah, who programmed these worlds so beautifully, created us in the realm of Lahut. We made a covenant with Allah Almighty. We recite the two words of testimony. We say: Eşhedü en la ilahe illallah ve eşhedü enne Muhammeden abdühu ve resulühu. Why do we say this? Is Allah Almighty making us testify (?)? Is He making us tell a lie? In the realm of the hereafter we also saw our Lord. Beside our Lord we also saw the Prophet (peace be upon him). And beside our Lord, the Prophet (peace be upon him), 'yes, this is our Lord', testified to us. How do you know? I am telling what I saw. I am telling you the verses.

This cannot be explained with Arabic. In that case we were taken up to the barzakh. How long did we stay? We don't know. We came to the world. Here we know our lifespan. We also know how long we will stay in the earth after we die. But as if we had risen a moment later, as if we lay down and got up, we will be raised in the hereafter. Then 'alas' won't be worth anything. So I have a piece of advice for you. Know your life as a treasure. Treasure is not money, gold, jewels. Every soul will taste death. According to the verse that says your return is to Me. The earths and the heavens, the earth and the heavens.

The inheritance of what is between these two will remain to Allah, it says. So you cannot take possession of what Allah created, and cannot say it's mine. They are only a trust given to us. So our treasure, our life: within our life, the actual deeds we did, and by these deeds, fulfilling Allah's command or not fulfilling it, the rewards and sins we earned are our burden, our gain or our loss. So we will use our life well. We will not forget this hadith of the Prophet. Do not wish for death, he says. To stay a moment in the world is better than lying a thousand years under the earth, he says. The reason? Because Allah created us so that His essence would be known.

If you said 'Allah' once in the world, there, your work is done. Let it fit Allah's purpose of creation. You become worthy of Allah Almighty's word. When you say 'Allah', He says: Labbayk, My servant. Speak. Yes.

Know your life as a treasure. Value it accordingly. Yes.
