Maryam 71: There is no one among you who will not pass by there. This is a determined judgment for your Lord.

Maryam Surah, verse 71, we have now come to it. There is no one among you who will not pass by there. This verse, they make it pass through the inside of hell. Through the inside of hell. And blessed. Look carefully. I will come here. Here. And this is hell. Hell. Listen carefully.

And this is me. Me. Me.

Come, Haluk. Hold this between the two, this white one. Hold it like this. Pull it a bit to this side, like this. No, come this way. Now look carefully. That's me. That's me. This is hell. And this is where I'll go. What will I do? I pass by hell and go on. I don't go through the inside of hell. Look. What does it say? There is no one among you who will not pass by there. Well, I passed by here, but does that mean I went inside?

People who have lost their minds.

And then you say, I did my doctorate.

You did your doctorate on such a basis. Yes. I am going from here to Ankara, the road passes through Bolu. Do I go into Bolu? I pass by it and go on, I pass by its (?). Hell is the same. Those who put a bridge over hell, you know, in order to tie (?) words to each other, keep making up falsehoods like this, run into dead ends, and in the end fall into despair themselves. Yes. They themselves fall into despair. And then they make up lie upon lie, and into a swamp, a swamp over their heads, they sink, and where they put their finger down, to the fire they leave themselves exposed.

Open up and break this nafs of yours. Bow your neck a little, take the tulips off your neck. Where the truth is, don't try to defend falsehood. Because falsehood is always falsehood. Where the truth is, falsehood is like a dull piece of ash.

Yes.

There is no one among you who will not pass by there. This is a decree fixed for your Lord, it says. Why is it a fixed decree? This is the gathering place. The gathering place.

This is hell. Let's say this. This is hell. This is where I am (?). Between the two, hell. From where I am (?), I will pass by hell and come to the gathering place. This is something created earlier, a being our Lord created, being made known to us. "This is a decree fixed for your Lord," it says. So this order has been set up. This is fixed too. And when we rise at the gathering place, without (?) with Israfil, that is, without being able to slip off to any side, that is what (?) means. Escape, you can't escape. In that case, we follow Israfil. We pass by the edge of hell, because we are walking.

We come (?).

Now it's understood, I suppose.

Apart from this, (?) your hell bridge, to me prove it with verses; I count 67 verses for these, that it doesn't exist, and there is more to come, more. I promise you, in the presence of all of you, I will apologize, ask my Lord for pardon and forgiveness, drop it and go away. I am a person raised by the Lord to remove falsehoods on earth, and I struggle for this. If I had not been such a person, in these commentaries I have written you would find many words that don't fit each other, and everything I said would contradict the verses. I sifted 4,300-odd of them for hadith as well. Just like Muslim, like Dawud, like those other great figures, I am someone who understands hadiths.

because these poor people misunderstood their translations, they have done away with the hadiths. And now we are the ones sorting out which is hadith and which is not. Has there been anyone so far in the world, I'm telling you about the verses in the Quran, I'm telling you, in the world, the verses in the Quran, has a brave man come forward who could write "this part describes Allah's attributes"?

This is hadith, according to this verse. This is not hadith, according to that verse; is there a brave man who can back it with verses? Has one come forward? I'm not saying this to praise myself. Well, why are you saying it? Just as every prophet said that he was a prophet, we are their heirs. Heirs. "The scholars are the heirs of the prophets," it says. And besides, because I am charged with a duty by my Lord, I am obliged to tell you that I am charged with a duty. But there is a hadith; in the hadith it says the lost imam will not be recognized. How could they not recognize such a learned person?

He will have no outward knowledge, no Arabic, no hifz either; even if they say "it's me," they won't believe it. Even if you don't believe, you will have fulfilled the hadith. And if you believe, you will have taken Allah's verses into your ranks beside you. Isn't that so? Yes. If I had been someone who doesn't stand behind his words, up to now many people attacked me, and later they understood what I am and withdrew. They all withdrew. Surely, as soon as they understood me, they would have (?). Isn't that so? And they slandered. And they wrote (?). We answered all of them one by one with verses.

One by one. And they realized that they truly were a (?). And they said, we probably won't be able to cope with this man. Because they are people held captive in feelings of the nafs. When they hear the truth, they are not on the side of the truth, but with their own feelings of the nafs, with (?), together, to make themselves look great to the people around them, out of feelings of the nafs: "Sir, up to now we apparently understood this verse this way; look, it's wrong." People too proud in their nafs to say that. They will give account of this tomorrow at the Great Court, before Allah Almighty.

We are responsible for telling the truth. We will tell the truth.

If they are right, then just as I explain it, they should explain the truth and set me straight.

This is an unavoidable obligation on their back.

No. If it's falsehood, I am telling the truth. If, despite my telling the truth, they, in order to defend falsehood, take their place on the side of falsehood, I am doing my duty. Tomorrow, the ones who will give account before our Lord are them. You'll say, won't you give account? I will too. I will give account too. My witnesses are those who listen to me, my witnesses, and also Allah and His Messenger.

My works are here too. What I have read and what I have done are here too. Yes.

Isn't it so? Am I saying something wrong? There is no one among you who will not pass by there. This is a decree fixed for your Lord, it says. All people who will enter paradise and hell will surely pass in front of hell. The gathering place is next to hell. The Great Court will also be set up here. That this is so, we understand from verse 68 of this surah. Yes. that it is so, we understand from verse 68.

Not this. (?) What does it say? It doesn't do anything.

Let's come to verse 68. Let's read it again. Verse 68, then: "By your Lord, We will surely gather them together with the devils at the gathering place, then We will bring them, kneeling, around hell and make them present." What is this? At the Great Court, at that gathering place, by hell set up there, beside it, at the Great Court, those whose accounts are settled will realize they are going to hell; as we said earlier, they will throw themselves face down on the ground, and "We," it says, sir, "will call the guardians of hell and have them thrown in through the (?) gate of hell," it says. Yes.

All people, those who will enter paradise and hell, will surely pass in front of hell. The gathering place is next to hell. The Great Court will also be set up here. That this is so, we understand from verse 68 of this surah. Allah Almighty, swearing by His own Self: "So, by your Lord, We will surely gather them together with the devils at the gathering place. Then We will bring them, kneeling, around hell, and make them present." So if all people, the people of paradise and of hell, are to be gathered at the gathering place and called to account there, and if those who will enter hell, too, are to be present on their knees around hell, then not a single soul will remain that does not see hell.

All souls will see hell.

The people of paradise will attain Allah's mercy. Some of them will be welcomed with smiling faces, and to some the right of intercession will be given.

Some will be called to account and enter paradise after questioning. Those who are Muslim but sinful will also enter hell, and after serving their punishment they will go to paradise again. As for the people of hell being made to kneel and kept waiting around hell: first, the accounts of the people of paradise and of those who obey Allah will be settled. Until the account of the people of paradise is settled, the people of hell will be kept waiting on their knees around hell. You know the old Turkey: people would give up their sleep, at three o'clock, four, two, they'd go in front of the hospital and take a number, and there, in that cold, they'd wait until morning, and the queues stretched all the way back, you know; so that no one would complain, their (?) would hand out to them, as a so-called favor, (?) and tea, you know; but if it were nowadays, there are those who'd raise revolt upon revolt; now people in (?) hospitals get examined quite nicely without waiting in line.

What we now call the new Turkey, these people getting examined in hospitals without waiting in line, that is, at the gathering place, at the Great Court, the Muslims' accounts being settled first in this way. For the others, it's the old Turkey, you know; they'll be told "please" and wait.

Yes. let's read the last paragraph again. The people of paradise will attain Allah's mercy. Some of them will be welcomed with smiling faces, and to some the right of intercession will be given; some will be called to account and enter paradise after questioning. Those who are Muslim but sinful will also enter hell, and after serving their punishment they will go to paradise again. As for the people of hell being made to kneel and kept waiting around hell: first, the accounts of the people of paradise and of those who obey Allah will be settled. Until the account of the people of paradise is settled, the people of hell will be kept waiting on their knees around hell.
