Translation

Those who deny and prevent (people) from Allah’s path, We will stack up their sins and punish them for the mischief they were doing.

Tafsir

Those who disbelieve in Allah and the Hereafter, those who do not believe in the Books and Prophets sent by Allah, and those who oppress people who believe in Allah and the Hereafter and try to prevent them from the path of Allah, will also be punished for their actions. Their sins will be collected and they will be punished.

All human beings (Fa man ya'mel miskala zerratin hayran yerah. And men ya'mel miskâle zerratin sharran yerah) According to the verse, every miskal of good and evil will be written down. Since no one will bear anyone else's sins, people's sins will be collected and they will be punished. The sin that a person receives in return for the evil that he has done, and the sin that a person receives in return for the evil that he has done, and the sin that a person incites another person to do, and the sin that a person incites another person to do, and the sin that a person incites another person to do, and the sin that a person incites another person to do, and the sin that a person incites another person to do, and the sin that a person incites another person to do. These sins are collected and people are punished.

If a person teaches a person a good deed, and the person who taught the good deed passes on to the Hereafter, and the person who remains in the world does good deeds with the good deed he has learned and teaches it to others, and people do the good deed, the people who taught the good deed and passed on to the Hereafter will be rewarded continuously. The books of such people will not be closed. The one who has passed on to the Hereafter is rewarded until the people of this world forget the good that he taught and abandon this form of worship.

Evil is like this. Those who prevent people from doing good and call them to evil, those who oppress those who believe in Allah and the Hereafter, will bear their own sins when they pass on to the Hereafter, and they will participate in the sins of those people who sin. Their sins will come to such people from behind until they die, until the evil that they taught them ceases to exist. Such people will be punished in the Hereafter by accumulating their sins and their torment will increase accordingly.

What is said in the video

Surah An-Nahl, verse 88. Those who deny and hold people back from Allah's path – them, We will punish by adding up their sins, because of the corruption they used to cause. Yes, now this verse, let's read it from the, um, thing. I suspect this verse is a verse that has been explained wrongly. How did I figure that out, Hodja?

They explained the verse like this: by increasing their sins, it says. God forbid. Allah gives one who commits a sin one sin, and one who does a good deed up to seven hundred rewards. Now, Surah An-Nahl,

88,

yes, those who deny and hold people back from Allah's path – them, because of the corruption they used to cause, We will punish by adding up their sins, it says. Here we skipped this part; actually they – let's look here, let's look at what they themselves wrote: Surah An-Nahl, 88. They too have written it that way (?). It will become clear here.

Look what it says. Those who deny and hold people back from Allah's path – them, because of the corruption they used to cause, We will multiply their punishment many times over, it says. Look. 88. We skipped this part too, it escaped our eyes, with green we didn't mark it, with red we didn't mark it, it escaped our eyes, this part. Yes, but right where attributes are ascribed to Allah, our heart aches. Allah does not multiply anyone's sin; rather He punishes by adding up the sins they committed. Doesn't a judge do the same? Isn't this world a likeness and shadow of the hereafter? The judge adds up the crimes you committed, adds them up, and according to however much it is, your sentence he gives accordingly. But here what are you saying?

We will multiply it many times over. Allah Almighty does not multiply many times over. Where? Ve men ya'mel miskâle zerretin hayran yerah. Where? Ve men ya'mel miskâle zerretin şerran yerah. An atom's weight of evil He will record. Today, without anyone being wronged, everyone's due, the recompense of what they did, will be given to them in full, it says. In this case, does Allah Almighty multiply a sin I committed – yours? Allah forbid. This does not befit Allah's attributes and Allah's majesty. Yes. Here we wrote the correct thing. We did not mark red and green. That is another problem.

Those who deny Allah and the hereafter, who do not believe in the books Allah sent, in the books and the prophets, who, pressuring people who believe in Allah and the hereafter and have faith, want to hold them back from Allah's path – moreover, because of this behaviour of theirs, there is also (?) and suffering. They will be punished with their sins added up. Let's take a look at this: the red and green we wrote is the same too, and let's also take a look here. We may have corrected it here five days later.

Yes,

here too we marked the same. We wrote the correct thing. We wrote the correct thing. But we didn't mark it. That is, we didn't mark it in red and green.

(?)

All people – according to the verse fe men ya'mel miskâle zerretin hayran yerah, ve men ya'mel miskâle zerretin şerran yerah, the atom's weight of good and evil that is done will be recorded. Since no one will bear anyone else's sin, it means that people's sins are added up and they become deserving of punishments. The sin a person receives in return for an evil he did, and leading a person to evil – because of the evils these people were led to, both the people who commit that evil receive sin, and the person who led them to evil receives his share of the sins committed by the person he led to evil.

These sins are added up and the persons are punished.

This is how right and law are in justice.

Yes.

If a person teaches someone something good, and the one who taught the good passes to the hereafter, the person remaining in the world acts on the good he learned and teaches it to someone else too. And if people do this good, to those who taught the good and passed to the hereafter, continually reward comes. The records of such people are not closed. Until this good he taught is forgotten by the people living in the world and this form of worship is abandoned, reward comes to the person who passed to the hereafter.

Evil is like this too. Those who hold people back from good and call them to evil, who pressure those who believe in Allah and the hereafter – when they pass to the hereafter, they will carry both their own sins and share in the sins of these people who commit sins. Until these people die, until the supply of the evils he taught is cut off, afterwards sins will keep coming to such people. So such people will be punished in the hereafter with their sins added up, and their punishment will increase accordingly.
