Translation

Those who don’t believe in Allah’s Verses, verily they cannot find the right path (as long as they are on that path). For them, there is a severe punishment.

Tafsir

Allah is complete and perfect. He is free from all incomplete attributes. In this respect, the Holy Qur'an is a complete Book that Allah has sent to mankind, a Book that gives life to people and sheds light before them.

If people who are caught up in pride and arrogance, who rebel and disbelieve in Allah, if they leave the Book that gives them life in front of them, if they say that the Qur'an is the fables of the ancients because of our incomplete creation, according to their own minds, and if they deny Allah, then such people are people who have become disoriented in the middle of the straight path, and who remain in darkness, thinking that the crooked and evil paths are the light. As long as they do not turn away from this, they will not find the right path for ever and they will not attain the mercy of Allah.

These are the disbelievers who do not believe in Allah and the Hereafter. When they go to the Hereafter in this state, they will be subjected to eternal torment in Hell, which is an evil place of return.

The world, the devil and the ego appear pleasant to man. It flatters one's arrogance and pride. In this case, a person has chosen a few hours of this world's life over the Hereafter, and such a person is an unprofitable shopkeeper.

What is said in the video

In verse 104 of Surah An-Nahl, a verse that has been interpreted wrongly. Yes, let us look at this one too, at the mistakes they made. First we read the wrong version, we read the wrong version of verse 104.

It says: "Those who do not believe in Allah's verses, are there not such?" Are there not? "Surely Allah does not guide them to the right path, and for them there is a painful punishment," it says. This does not befit Allah's majesty. This way of interpreting the verse. What does it say? "Those who do not believe in Allah's verses, are there not such?" it says. "Surely Allah does not guide them to the right path." When it says that, the verses here contradict other verses. One, who created us? Allah. Two, "Had We created man free of error, We would destroy them and create servants who commit errors." Does it say that? It does. That is two.

Third, would Allah Almighty contradict His own word? Since He created servants who commit errors: I was in error, we did not give the truth its due, I was a disbeliever. Later I wanted to become a Muslim. Then does this verse befit Allah's word? What does it say? "Those who do not believe in Allah's verses, are there not such?" "Surely Allah does not guide them to the right path." That is, He never guides them to the right path again. "And for them there is a painful punishment," it says. (?) what is its correct version? "Those who do not believe in Allah's verses, are there not such?" it says.

"As long as they remain in that state, as long as they remain in that state, surely these will not find the right path." As long as they go on as disbelievers, with that disbelieving mindset, on that crooked path, they will not find the right path. Surely these will not find the right path. "For them there is a painful punishment," it says. Now where here does it say that Allah does not guide them to the right path? "Allah does not guide them to the right path," it says. Whereas it is not Allah and the right direction; as long as they remain in this state, surely these will not find the right path.

Yes. No one can fit Allah into their mind and ascribe attributes to Him. No one can (?) in Allah Almighty. Yes. The One who brought these worlds into being from nothing, who knows the secret of creation, who holds the keys of the unseen, who, magnifying man millions of times under a magnifying glass, with a microscope, and thousands of times under a microscope, writes all his features into one cell, and into it places his character traits, who creates man in three zones of darkness and from there brings him forth, who clothes the skeleton with flesh and gives man his outward appearance; if that man, with his tiny mind, unaware of himself in this way, ascribes deficiency to Allah, then, with the ignorance in his nafs, his (?) toward Allah, just think about that.

Yes.

"Those who do not believe in Allah's verses, are there not such?" "As long as they remain in that state, surely these will not find the right path. For them there is a painful punishment." Allah Almighty is complete and perfect. He is free from all deficient attributes. Therefore the Quran that Allah sent to people is a flawless book that gives people life and holds a light before them. Those carried away by pride and arrogance, people who rebel against Allah and deny Him, abandon the book before them that gives them life. Because of our deficient creation. People, according to their minds, the Quran, which addresses minds, abandon the book of Allah Almighty's words; because of our deficient creation, if people, according to their minds, call the Quran tales of the ancients and deny Allah, such people, confused in the middle of the straight path, crooked and evil paths (?) are people who remain in darkness.

As long as they do not turn back from these states, they can never find the right path, nor can they attain Allah's mercy. Allah Almighty has given man his will. Man, through the deeds he carries out with his own will, through the decisions he himself has made, earns reward and sin. Here Allah Almighty has no ruling over man. Because man, by his desire and wish, has had his own will written for himself as destiny, and within that destiny, so that man can prove what kind of person he is, with the decisions he makes, with the good deeds and sins he has done, he will give account in the presence of Allah Almighty.

In that case, if Allah Almighty had ruled over man, Allah Almighty would be ascribed attributes, and it is impossible that Allah, with that attribution, would punish that servant of His. Yes. These are the disbelievers who do not believe in Allah and the Hereafter, who deny. When they go to the Hereafter in this state, in Hell, what an evil place of return, they remain subject to eternal punishment. The world, Satan and (?) seem pleasant to man. They flatter man's arrogance and pride. In this case man has preferred a few hours of worldly life to the Hereafter, and such people's trade is like that of a merchant who made no profit.

Yes.
