Translation

(Recall) when he made a supplication to his Lord in secret.

Tafsir

Allah revealed to the Prophet (pbuh) the secret supplication of His servant Zakariyya to Allah (swt) when he was in the Hereafter before the Prophet (pbuh) was even born, and Allah (swt) reminds the Prophet (pbuh) of the event in the Hereafter when the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) was born, saying that he had supplicated to his Lord in a secret voice.

Again, if we pay attention to the verse, it says that he made supplication to his Lord. In other words, Allah is only the Lord of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). If he had said to your Lord, it would have been a generalized situation.

Allah (swt) is free from deficient attributes. Allah does not speak in vain. By calling the Prophet (PBUH) his Lord, he means all creation and includes many meanings.

All these worlds were created from the light of the Prophet (pbuh) and humans were created indirectly from the spirit of the Prophet (pbuh). In this respect, the Prophet (s.a.w.) has become (vema erselnake illa rahmatan lil alamin). By seeming to address the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.) and saying (Rab'bine), Allah (swt) includes all created beings from mote to sphere and emphasizes clearly that there is no other God but Him and that He is the absolute power and owner of His creations. In this respect, by using the word Rab'bine, he includes all creation. It can also hear and know what is being spoken aloud and silently.

What is said in the video

Surah Maryam, the third verse. Remember when, with a hidden voice, he had entreated your Lord, it says, a hidden voice. By Allah Almighty saying "remember when", here there is a great meaning. For example, when did the Prophet come into the world? Well, the last, the Seal of the Prophets, the Prophet, the year 1436, is it? Probably 36 Hijri. To the Prophet, who came into the world 1436 years earlier, by saying "remember when", what was hundreds or thousands of years earlier, by saying "remember when"; just as I now (?) call to witness an event. That event, thousands of years later... Doğan, when I sent Doğan somewhere, when I say "Doğan, remember that time", the past event, His reminding the Prophet of it.

Yes.

Remember when, with a hidden voice, he had entreated your Lord. Remember Zechariah (peace be upon him) entreating his Lord; the Prophet too is made a witness to it. Yes. Allah Almighty, by saying "remember when": before the Prophet (peace be upon him) had yet come into the world, while he was in the hereafter, His servant Zechariah's secret pleading to Allah Almighty He had shown to the Prophet (peace be upon him). When the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) graced the world, recalling the event in the realm of the hereafter before the Prophet (peace be upon him), He says: "Remember when, with a hidden voice, he had entreated your Lord." He reminds him of it.

Yes. Just as I said a moment ago, let's say 20 or 30 years ago we live through an event (?). Then, when someone comes to us, what do we say? Do you remember that time? He said it like this. How nice. Allah Almighty here also proves that the Beloved of the Almighty, the Seal of the Prophets, Muhammad (peace be upon him), is a mercy to the worlds and that to all the prophets, to the prophets, he will bear witness.

Again, if we pay attention to the verse, it says: he had entreated your Lord. That is, Allah appears as if He were only the Lord of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him); so the situation is presented. As his Lord. Had it said "Lord... the Lord of you all", it would have been a situation covering everyone. Covering everyone. "The Lord of you all." But what does it say? "Your Lord"; the matter here is personal. The word here is not all-encompassing. Had it said "our Lord", it would have covered everyone. Had it said "our Lord", "entreated our Lord", we would all have had to know it. But when it says "your Lord", personally, his Lord is our Lord. Because the prophets are from his soul, and their peoples too are from his soul, indirectly each of us, from the soul of the Prophet, came into being. We became a part of him.

So, the mercy to the worlds and humanity's sublime and foremost, the Prophet; addressing him is addressing us. Yes.

Allah Almighty is free from all deficient attributes. Allah Almighty does not speak idly. By saying "your Lord" to the Prophet (peace be upon him), with "your Lord" He means all of creation, and in a second sense, "your Lord": addressing the Prophet, and to those who are from him, "your Lord" as a personal, private talk, and informing us of the situation as well.

These events also embrace many meanings.

All these worlds from the light of the Prophet (peace be upon him), and people indirectly from the soul of the Prophet (peace be upon him) were created. In this respect, the Prophet (peace be upon him)... Allah Almighty, while seeming to address the Prophet (peace be upon him), by saying "your Lord" includes all creation from the atom to the globe, and that there is no other god but Him and that He has absolute power over and possession of His creation, He clearly and firmly emphasizes. In this respect, by using the word "your Lord", He embraces all creation. Moreover, He hears and knows what is spoken aloud and silently.

It says "silently", doesn't it, his silent entreaty to your Lord. Yes, that means saying "your Lord", "your Lord" has two meanings. One, a personal talk and a personal reminder to him, a reminder to the Prophet (peace be upon him); since the worlds are from the Prophet's light and people from his soul, He tells us too those events of the past with such a beautiful comparison or example. Yes.
